Flames were burning in front of the temple, thick smoke was drifting in the city, and the fierce fighting had lasted for two days and two nights. Rebel militias have taken over half of the city, and thousands of civilians have fled. On the city wall, the flags of the Three Gods and the Zicao family were erected, just like the era of the Tarasco Kingdom. And when the sun rises again, all the colors in Kuramo City will be revealed. At this moment, this pearl on the shore of Lake Atoyak has been dyed bright red in the fierce battle.

In the center of the city, blood flowed down from the Yakata Pyramid more than ten meters high, converging into a shallow stream. Veteran Etalik, dressed in heavy armor, sat in the main temple at the top of the pyramid. With a calm expression, he held a piece of tortilla in his hand and gnawed it slowly.

Not long after the main temple was rebuilt, the remaining murals of the three gods can be vaguely seen. However, the sign of the hummingbird sun stands in the center, the supreme **** who suppresses all the remnants of the old gods. Under the sign of the Lord God, a Mexica war priest held the Ali Book and was chanting chapters of holy war loudly to encourage the morale of the warriors.

The general is calm and confident, the priest is pious and fearless. Under their influence, more than five hundred Mexica warriors on the pyramid settled down. Relying on the strong pyramid, they are divided into three layers of defense.

On the outermost perimeter are four hundred warriors holding shields and spears, forming a defensive battle formation, guarding the middle of the pyramid. Further up are more than a hundred archers holding longbows, in groups of three or five, occupying shooting positions with good sightlines, and accurately shooting and killing the warriors among the enemies. The incident happened suddenly, and the archer did not have enough bows and arrows to shoot at will.

At the top, there are forty elite warriors in heavy cloth armor, each holding a big axe, recharging their energy. When one side of the pyramid is attacked by the elite of the enemy, and the situation is critical, they will rush down from above, killing and defeating the enemy with irresistible power!

The sun was just rising, but after a moment of silence, the sound of fighting rang out again. Thick burning smoke rose from under the pyramid, blackening the soldiers on both sides, but effectively blocking the sight of the archers.

Five or six hundred Kuramo militiamen, led by hundreds of Zicao warriors, climbed up from the south and made a difficult assault on the pyramid. They raised their heads and stabbed with spears, but were easily blocked by the Mexica warriors. Then, the bronze spears from the high place pierced down with a "shua shua" and penetrated the heads and necks of the militiamen, bringing up the bright red of the big canopy!

"Whoa, whoa!"

A large group of Kuramo slingers approached the pyramid, throwing stones from below, hitting the cotton armor and shields of the Mexica warriors, and occasionally hitting the warriors on the cheek, which hurt people. The warriors were very annoyed, but they always obeyed the general's order, firmly guarding the pyramid and not attacking.

"Whizzing!"

The Mexica archers watched for a moment, and shot dozens of scattered feather arrows through the smoke. More than a dozen Zicao warriors hiding in the militia wailed and fell to the ground or died of serious injuries. Precious arrows cannot be spent on the weedy Kuramo slinger.

Hundreds of lives were sacrificed in front of the main temple, and the streams on the pyramids were replenished and flowed slowly down the stone steps, making the climb even more difficult. The Zicao family's attack lasted for a quarter of an hour, but they were still unable to make a breakthrough, but kept leaving corpses behind.

In the fight of blood and fire, the veteran Etalik finished eating the cake. He stood up, condescending, looked at the battle situation in the south of the pyramid, and nodded. The battle line is stable, and it is not yet time to use heavy armored warriors.

The output of bronze armor in the kingdom has gradually become richer, and each major general has a group of heavy armor guards, numbering around dozens of people. These elite armored warriors defend the generals on the one hand, and are used for key assaults on the other. As a veteran of the alliance, Etalik got fifty sets of expensive bronze armor, but lost ten sets in the attack not long ago.

Thinking of this, the veteran Etalik was very angry.

Two days ago, he was attacked by assassins from the Zicao family. After the other party lied about being a minor nobleman, he presented three letters in which General Prepecha conspired to rebel. After reading it, he felt that the words in these letters were vague and mixed with various graphic texts of Tarasco, so he summoned the other party to inquire in detail.

Who knew that the other party seemed cowardly, but in fact he was stubborn. He suddenly attacked violently, and a guard was scratched and injured his arm, and died of poisoning on the spot. Fortunately, Etalik was wearing heavy arm armor and was skilled in martial arts. He directly pulled out the bronze sword and killed the opponent with a few blows. Afterwards, he looked at the dots of blue frog poison on the cloth mask and felt palpitations.

"The Zicao family's rebellion has definitely been planned for a long time! The Lord God blesses, the ancestors bless, I hope His Highness is fine!"

Etalik looked to the north and prayed devoutly for a moment.

Shortly after the Assassin's attack, thousands of rebel militiamen and warriors appeared in Kuramo City. With the assistance of Neying, they raided Etalik's barracks.

At least half of the two hundred Prepecha warriors newly recruited in the battalion took part in the rebellion. They chanted the slogan "The barbarian king of Mexica was assassinated and killed, and the royal family of Tarasco will soon return to the country", and surrounded them from all directions. Many residents of Kuramo City also participated, some guided the rebels, some provided food, and some even participated in the battle.

Thinking of this, Etalik's eyes were filled with anger and regret.

"After the disbandment of the militia, the two hundred Prepecha warriors should not be recruited! The enemy who sneaks into the interior is the most dangerous. The city of Kuramo is full of rebels! When the king's army arrives, I must suggest to His Highness: The rebels in the city must either be sacrificed or reduced to slavery!"

Zicao County in the south survived the Western Expedition, and the towns and villages remained largely intact. The remaining aristocratic forces are too much, and the spread of faith is slow. The people have never seen the power of the Mexica Legion, and they still have illusions about the old Tarasco dynasty. The kingdom's rule is not stable here, which is why Etalik suggested that His Majesty go south to purge.

A battalion of 1,000 Mexica warriors was attacked by the rebellious Zicao family, and more than 300 people were lost on the spot, and they were surrounded by rebel militias and residents. Veteran Etalik quickly made a decision and led the more than 600 warriors involved in a desperate assault, defeated the enemies who besieged the main temple, and occupied the pyramid in the center of the city.

In the temple of the main god, there is food and water that can last everyone for three days, and more than 50 temple guards join in. Although these temple guards were from Prepecha, they were extremely loyal to the alliance. This kind of loyalty is not only because of religious belief, but also because the fate of the temple guards has long been bound to the temple. Once the rebels who believe in the three gods take the city, they will have only one end!

"Only Prepecha warriors who devoutly believe in the Lord God are trustworthy and good warriors."

Etalik muttered to himself. The spread of faith is crucial to the stability of the kingdom's rule.

Under his command, more than 600 Mexica warriors and temple guards defended the pyramid relying on the favorable location. And once freed from raids and melees, the Mexica warriors can give full play to their combat power. In the two-day battle, the UU reading www.uukanshu.com warriors only lost a little over a hundred, but killed more than five hundred enemies. Up to now, the rebellious Zicao family has lost their spirit, and the elite probably have almost lost their strength. The warriors firmly hold the temple, and the biggest threat is the food and water that are about to run out.

"The leader of the Zicao family, the leader of the rebels, Gulamo."

Veteran Etalik stared at the pyramid with a stern expression on his face.

The banner of the comfrey family was erected beyond the range of the longbow. Beside the flag, a handsome warrior leader in bronze armor was watching the defenders on the pyramid. Then, he gave some instructions to the surrounding guards, and more than a thousand Kuramo militiamen gathered again in the east, west, and north. On the south side where the warrior leader stood, nine bronze-armored elites led more than two hundred leather-armored warriors in the final mobilization.

"Haha! Gulamo, the warriors are short of food and water, but you are so impatient, overwhelming all the elite."

Etalik ignored the oncoming attack, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Praise the Lord God! It seems that His Highness is safe and sound, and reinforcements are about to arrive!"
