After placing the bird feather on the chest of the leader of the eagle warriors, the Sun King stood up silently. He looked around the battlefield again. Everywhere he saw were Aztlan corpses, and for a while he couldn't find any enemy soldiers.
The Sun King's body was shaking more and more violently. Strong winds blew and the clouds were blown away, and the sun became dazzling for a while. Looking at the rising sun, he opened his arms wide and let out a silent roar from his throat. His fists gradually clenched as he roared, obviously full of unwillingness and anger.
"You said-"
The Sun King drew out his voice for a long time
"If I station my military camp by the river, will I be able to successfully withstand the enemy's attack, or will it be easily wiped out like this?"
No one dared to speak. The Sun King's followers knew that the Sun King was angry. When angry, the Sun King will kill people whenever he hears unpleasant words.
Among the crowd, the only person who did not have such concerns was Tesosomok.
"It's hard to say," he replied, "but at least my allies' judgment of the enemy's attack method is correct. The enemy is good at attacking by looking at rivers. Although it is a humiliating defeat, if there was not such an army here yesterday, We will face a more difficult situation."
Tesosomok also had little energy when he spoke. The Sun King lost one of his generals, and he was very lucky. But if you think about it carefully, he is still under the control of the Sun King and it is difficult to escape. He would be much happier if it was not the leader of the Eagle Warriors who died in front of him, but the Sun King Mokutsoma III.
Ella, who was at the center of the conversation, was completely at a loss. If she didn't give the Sun King advice on guarding the river, judging from Hestein's landing point this time, I'm afraid the Sun King's logistics route would be completely cut off. Although the Aztlan people had suffered a huge defeat at the moment, it was nothing compared to the results Hestein should have achieved.
The Sun King, Tesosomok, and Hestein, the outcome of this battle left all three parties unsatisfied.
"If you think about it carefully, the gods have given us hints a long time ago. Decades ago, when that magical ship floated from the east of the sea and docked in Aztlan, we should have thought that this day would come. "
The Sun King muttered to himself with his eyes closed.
"The gods gave us decades to prepare. But we couldn't understand the deeper meaning. Instead, we felt that the ships were of little use, so we only used a few scattered people to hastily imitate a small batch. If we had mobilized a hundred times in advance, How can craftsmen, who have copied thousands of identical ships, allow these invaders to be so unscrupulous in the rivers of Aztlan."
As he spoke, his eyes opened again. Keeping looking up at the sun, he suddenly asked sternly:
"Tessosomok. You said that you suffered a defeat on the east side of the sea. So the fleet that the empire spent all its efforts to imitate and deliver to you is still safe?"
"Fortunately, everything is safe." Tesosomok replied with his head lowered, "I parked the fleet on the land route that Nezahualcoyotel took us to. But the Sun King, these fleets can only sit on I and my Eagle Warrior and Leopard Warrior cannot carry too many people."
"That's better than nothing. Get these fleets to guard the mouth of the river, otherwise our fortresses along the river will never be built. By the way - let Nezabarcoyotl command these fleets. He wants to withdraw to Aztlan , I just want to drag him back to the battlefield!"
"It's a good idea." Tesosomok replied, "Nezahualcyotel's magic level can somewhat scare the opponent."
"Continuing to stay here is just getting beaten in vain. My Aztlan warriors are not craftsmen. They drop the armies of the lords from the front lines and let them do the construction. I want to push north to find the enemy's main force for a decisive battle. "
"It's a good idea." Tesosomok replied, "For rogue bandits, the best way is to attack their dens."
"I will remember the lessons learned this time. Important stations should be set up far away from rivers, and water canals should be used to divert water. The only person who should be stationed next to the river is myself - I will be fully alert and bring the best equipment. Elite troops, if the enemy comes from the river, they will fight me to the death."
"Wait a moment……"
Ella raised her head and hesitated to speak.
"What's wrong?" The Sun King lowered his head and asked, "Do you have any other better suggestions?"
Ella thought about it again and again, and finally could only shake her head helplessly. At this time, it was absolutely impossible for him to believe that the Sun King was told not to worry about the river behind him and to station along the river with confidence.
The Sun King misunderstood what Ella meant and said:
"Of course, I will not forget the reward for you. I allow you to wear green bird feathers, which are only the most noble Aztlan ornaments. I will give you a set of the most expensive quechar The bird feather ornaments are given to you to show respect for our covenant. In addition, I have an important task for you."
Saying this, the Sun King turned his head to Tesosomok.
"Tessosomok, my best brother. Take the allies you found on the other side of the sea to the northwest. There is a legion of more than 30,000 people there, and they are carrying a large amount of food and supplies. The only problem is, that The rivers are thick and dense. Apart from you, I can’t think of anyone else who can resist these thieves on the sea.”
Tesosomok nodded silently.
"Don't worry, Sun King. I will not let these invaders continue to run wild in Aztlan."
That night, Tesosomok, with the help of his entourage, found the depressed Ella squatting in a corner of the camp.
"Master God Envoy, I have a question I want to confirm with you." He said, "Is this enemy's attack really what you expected?"
"How is that possible! I was so surprised! Why did Hestein attack using the method I mentioned! Doesn't this mean that I am really helping the Sun King with suggestions!"
"Master God Envoy, you have always been very confident in the enemy's strength, so I am quite relieved." Tesosomok also had a bit of depression in his eyes: "According to this, it is not very likely to expect these invaders to defeat the Sun King. Is it possible?"
"Not at all." Ella raised her head and tentatively said to Tesosomok, "Didn't the Sun King ask us to guard the supplies? As long as we take these supplies..."
"No." Tesozomoc shook his head resolutely, "Our goal is to defeat the Sun King, and then become the hero of Aztlan and legitimately replace him. The failure of the Aztlan army must not be caused by On ourselves.”
"That will be difficult! We must defeat the Sun King and defeat Hestein..."
——And he can’t really defeat Hestein.
"How far do you have to go to get this done?"
Tesosomoc didn't know Ayla's third consideration. He only said that it would be very difficult to defeat Hestein when Aztlan's army retreated.
"Since it is difficult to do both at the same time, there is a way." Tesosomok said, "Isn't the God Envoy familiar with that Hestein? Send someone directly to contact them and agree to work together to defeat the sun. King, how is it?"
