The walled city of wood and stone is located on a high mountain, as if it wants to merge with the sky. The steep cliff blocks the climbers' footsteps, like a hundred-meter-high wall given by the gods. Cloud Snake Mountain City is a fortress between the mountains and the sky, guarding the last descendants of Tlaxcala.
At this moment, thousands of Mexican warriors wearing armor and leading troops with murderous intent were looking up at the bottom of the mountain. The shadowy Tlaxcala warriors demonstrated in the outer city of Yunshe on the top of the mountain, raising their bows and arrows and throwing spears. The warriors on both sides shouted fiercely and roared loudly, startling the birds in the sky! However, they are separated up and down, and they stop here. They are located at both ends of the natural danger, and there is no real fight.
"Lord God! This is the eternal mountain fortress, the ancestral land of the Tlaxcala people, Tepetiquepa-Tlaxcala, Cloud Serpent City?!"
Shulot stood at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the mountain city two to three hundred meters high, his mouth widening in surprise. He estimated the height of the mountain city, then looked at the narrow and rugged mountain road, and let out a difficult groan.
It wasn't until he witnessed it with his own eyes that he finally understood why Montezuma II in history besieged this city twice and held it hostage for seven years. It was not until people's hearts betrayed and a crisis of division occurred within the alliance that Meng Er was forced to withdraw his troops and failed. The failure of this conquest directly led to the loss of Meng Er's authority, forcing him to find another way a few years later and invite hundreds of Spanish "gods" to enter the lake capital.
"Imagine! Ouch!...The ancestors of the Tlaxcala people were able to find such a desperate place in the long mountains!"
"In the past hundreds of years, since its construction, this Yunshe Mountain City has never been captured."
Avitt looked serious, wearing ordinary warrior leather armor, standing side by side with Shulot. The two were of similar stature, equally tall and straight, and their facial features were somewhat similar. They looked majestic and stood on the hill at the foot of the mountain, like two condors side by side, looking at the "cloud snake" huddled in the rocks.
At the same time, on the wooden stockade outside Yunshe City, "Black Snake" Turcotte was carrying a longbow and watching the thousands of new military formations that appeared under the city. Even the noble descendants of gods can only survive in their ancestral land once they lose their city-state and legion, barely leading their family warriors and serving as the leader of a small team that defends the city.
"Huh? Are they all Aztec warriors wearing heavy armor? There are so many of them! ... I don't know what the king of Mexica is going crazy about. Isn't he still determined to give up? The sacred ancestor of the Cloud Snake The earth is the strongest protection of the God of Hunting, and it is absolutely impossible for mortals to conquer it!"
Black Snake Turcotte looked at the military formation at his feet, his expression calm and unconcerned. These heavily armored elite warriors were the most powerful force in the Aztec legion. To most city-states in the world, they are the walking incarnations of "fear"! However, as for the Cloud Snake Castle towering in the clouds, such a terrifying warrior can be easily defeated with a rolling stone as big as a human head.
From a height of more than two hundred meters, Black Snake looked at the tiny enemy below, as small as an ant on the ground. He scanned the center guarded by the ants, but did not see any gorgeous flags symbolizing status, nor did he see the feathered umbrella canopy raised high.
The people of Tlaxcala did not know at this moment that there were two noble kings in the warrior formation below. They are the core of the powerful alliance, and they are also the "god kings" who gather hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of warriors from various countries!
If the Cloud Snake warriors can break through the three thousand bronze armor guards and capture and kill two kings in their prime, then the Mexica Alliance, which is about to dominate the world, will collapse in an instant and shatter into large and small pieces. The city-state, and even the core Mexica Valley, may not be able to be preserved...
"Xulot, in the past few months, I have sent scouts, tortured prisoners, and roughly figured out the situation in Yunshe Mountain City."
Avitt stared for a long time before speaking in a deep voice.
"The ancestral land of Yunshe Mountain City is composed of two mountain terraces at the front and back. There are the outer city and the inner city on the front mountain, and the back city on the back mountain. The mountain road in front of you is the only road that can pass a large group of warriors. Straight up, Climbing two to three hundred meters, you will find the outer city of the front mountain. It is said to be the outer city, but it is actually several connected wooden villages and stone walls that circle most of the mountain tops and block all access to the mountain. In the outer city, there are There are several springs and small areas of mountain fields have been opened to support the warriors in the city.”
"The inner city of the Cloud Snake is at the highest point in the mountains. It is the residence of the descendants of the Cloud Snake gods. More importantly, there is the oldest Cloud Snake temple. Legend has it that the God of Hunting appeared in person and bestowed the blessing upon Ford. The ancestral land of the Tlaxcala ancestors! After the death of all Tlaxcala warriors, their souls will come here and be led by the God of Hunting to the kingdom of God in the clouds... This temple, in fact, It is the spiritual home of the Tlaxcala people, equivalent to the great temple of the Alliance!”
"The front mountain platform is larger, and there are about 6,000 Tlaxcala warriors and Dingzhuang stationed there. And in the northeast of the front mountain platform, there is a narrow rope wooden road connecting the back mountain platform. The back mountain platform is slightly smaller. , along the dangerous terrain, circled the back city of Yunshe. The cliffs were even more steep, with only paths for one person to pass, and almost no mountain roads. There were several mountain springs in the city, and there were also large fields, and four thousand people were stationed there. The militiamen, women and children in the city..."
Avitt looked into the distance and described it in detail. Shulot listened intently, his face as sinking as water, and his expression became more solemn.
"Huh! Such a steep mountain city, if placed in the Celestial Dynasty, it would be Shibao City and Diaoyu City. If placed in Neon, it would be Inaba Mountain Castle and Iwamura Mountain Castle... If it were to be attacked by force, the price to be paid would probably not be what the Alliance can bear. ..."
"Xulot, after I leave, this Yunshe Mountain City will be handed over to you!"
Hearing the king's dull words, Shulot pursed his lips and felt his head hurt. He stretched out his palm, closed one eye and opened it again, and estimated the height of Yunshe Mountain City again. After a while, he lowered his eyes, sighed quietly, and asked in a low voice.
"Father-in-law...how much food is left in Yunshe City?"
Hearing this, Avitt also lowered his eyes and remained silent. After a while, he opened his eyes, looked into Shulot's eyes, and answered calmly.
"Xulot, I have arranged warriors to seal off the entire mountain range and not allow any bag of salt to go up the mountain... As for Yunshe City, there is at least ten thousand people with food for a year. And their mountain fields can support thousands of people. If we abandon the old and the weak, we can persist longer..."
"But, no matter what, we must take this mountain city and destroy the ancestral land of the Tlaxcalans! This is the most stubborn cornerstone of faith in the hearts of all Tlaxcalans, and it is also the focus of all the ministries in the world, and even the states of the alliance. The location. Only by capturing this place can the four-state alliance of Tlaxcala be truly destroyed!..."
Speaking of this, Avitt paused slightly and spoke in a faint tone.
"I know that the kingdom's army captured tens of thousands of young men in the south of Tlaxcala, and also traded a large number of captives to other city-state armies... Xiulote, if you want to completely conquer these Tlaxcala, The Skala tribe must also capture this ancestral land!"
"Xulot, my son-in-law, my student, and my successor! No matter how difficult it is, no matter how long the siege is, no matter what the price is paid! You must capture Yunshe Mountain City and completely annihilate the Tlaxcala people!... This is not only the elder’s will, but also your grandfather’s wish, and it is my only royal order!... Destroy the Tlaxcala people and completely eliminate the descendants of the old enemy Cloud Snake from the world!”
