Aztec Eternals

v1 Chapter 491: The siege of Shuigu City, the Black Snak

Remember [New] in a second! "Water Valley City! Broken!"

Bright red is all over the city, blood is flowing and spreading, and the smell of death is everywhere. Boiling shouts are ringing under the south city wall, accompanied by the cheers and howls of the warriors. Soon, a large group of bronze armored archers poured into the city, followed by thousands of dog-born warriors, all of whom took control of the entire city wall.

"Kill! Kill these warriors! Not one of the Tlaxcala nobles will be left behind!"

"Witness of the God of Hunting! I will die here!"

In Nancheng, the fierce fighting continued. The heavily armored warriors are like unstoppable arrows, constantly rushing into the city! However, dozens of Tlaxcala warriors who were dispersed formed a small formation and still resisted tenaciously. Most of them flowed the blood of the noble species, inherited the glory and hatred of the family, and were unwilling to surrender to the Mexica easily.

In fact, with the deep blood feud between the two sides, even if the warriors surrendered, it would be difficult to save their lives, and they might end up as sacrifices.

"War... The God of War is supreme! The warriors of the God of War, we surrender!"

The Mexica legions kept pouring in, the Tlaxcala warriors were still fighting, but the militiamen in the city began to surrender. Thousands of militiamen lay down their weapons and knelt powerlessly on the ground. They were either begging, howling, crying, or numb, waiting for the judgment of fate together.

One month after the siege of the city, fireballs, poisonous smoke, thunder, and arrows came one after another, coupled with the intimidation of demon forces, the morale of the militiamen in the city had dropped to the lowest level. At this time, Nancheng was destroyed, and Shuigu City was about to fall. Most of the militiamen in the city lost the will to resist, but they were waiting to die.

"Drive all the militiamen who surrendered to the corner of the city! Don't block the route of the legion!"

The heavy-armored warrior captain who led the team sternly ordered, and then continued to kill into the city without stopping. The kingdom was promoted by military merit, and he has reached the pinnacle of military merit nobles. And if you want to go further, you must kill the enemy generals and nobles!

"Haha! I, the black wolf Toltek, finally captured Water Valley City!"

Billowing thick smoke rose from Water Valley City again. The sound of fighting in the wind was mixed with cheers of victory. Seeing the scene in front of him, Hei Lang laughed heartily, full of ambition. Then, with a big wave of his hand, he ordered the guards.

"Go! Tell the good news to His Highness in the rear!"

"Follow your orders, boss!...Now, you are the first of the Southern Expeditions!"

"Haha! Go, don't talk nonsense!"

Hei Lang cursed, but his voice was full of smiles. Afterwards, his expression became serious, killing intent appeared on his face, and he looked at the red-haired hunter beside him.

"The opportunity to receive the reward has come! Red-haired hunters, come with me!"

Hearing this, the red-haired hunters around all showed joy, and tightly held the big bow in their hands.

"Boss, where are we going? Are we going to wash the city! I heard that the Tlaxcala nobles are rich and rich, and their homes are full of valuable jade..."

"roll!"

Hei Lang cursed angrily, held his longbow, and walked down the hill in big strides. He shouted sharply as he started to run.

"Lord God bless you! Let's enter the city as soon as possible, before His Highness's envoy arrives, to hunt some heads of the descendants of the gods!..."

"... Patriarch, the Mexica have broken through the South City! Water Valley City, can't hold it anymore!"

Nieka held the baton, knelt down in front of the black snake Telcott, and shouted loudly.

"I'm protecting you, hurry out of the city and flee to the north!"

"Go away! The tombs of the ancestors are all here, and the descendants of the family are all here!"

The black snake Telkot's eyes were about to split open, and he roared angrily.

"Witness of the God of Hunting! This is my land! This is my city-state! How can I escape?!"

"Patriarch, let's go! The land is gone, you can take it back, the descendants of the gods are gone, you can regenerate!..."

Nieka's face was covered with dust and she was in a mess. He turned his head and glanced at the southern city where the Mexica were pouring in, his face was full of anxiety.

"If you don't leave, you really won't be able to leave!"

"..."

The black snake Telcott was stunned for a moment. He looked at the fallen southern city, at the warriors who were still fighting, and then at the militiamen who kept surrendering, and finally let out a howl like a wounded beast.

"Ah! I'm not reconciled!..."

"Let's go! Bring the Patriarch, let's go now!"

Seeing Patriarch's performance, Black Snake Warrior Commander Neka immediately understood. He quickly winked at the family guards around him, and surrounded the Patriarch and ran towards the North City. While running, he tore off the brightly colored battle clothes on his body. Then, several personal guards were also in a hurry, throwing away the conspicuous feather crown of the Patriarch, and tearing off the gorgeous battle clothes.

Everyone moved extremely fast, and they were familiar with the road, and the defenders along the way were unhindered. After a while, the sound of fighting in Nancheng disappeared temporarily. In front of everyone's eyes, there were only black smoke rising continuously and a large group of militiamen fleeing in chaos.

The black snake Telcott hung his head, allowing the family warriors to change his clothes. After a while, the honorable Mizutani City Lord turned into an ordinary Tlaxcala warrior. It wasn't until then that Black Snake raised his head, his eyes were blank, and he saw the doomsday panic scene when Huicheng fell.

"My land, my family, my city...and my glory..."

"Patriarch! The remaining warriors in the south city won't last long. We have two hundred warriors, so we have to leave the city through the north gate as soon as possible!"

"But...how to get there? The Mexica dog-descendant team has penetrated deep into the north of Shuigu City, harassing and looting everywhere. If you are entangled by them, you will be caught up by the pursuers..."

"Patriarch, let's take a boat! On the Talsas River outside the city, the navy of the city-state will respond. As long as we go north along the river, we can escape the pursuit!"

"Huh? Take a boat!"

Hearing this, Black Snake was shocked. This is indeed an escape route. After getting away from the danger, he gradually recovered from the shock of the city's destruction, and his thoughts began to run,

"Nieka... Then, what about the water snake patriarch in the west city?"

"I can't care about him anymore! Patriarch, the city of Water Valley is broken, and there must be a descendant of the gods sacrificed to appease the anger of the hunting god..."

Having said that, Nieka narrowed her eyes, looked in the direction of West City, and lowered her voice.

"You're safer with the gods and warriors of the Hydra family to attract the attention of the Mexica..."

"..."

Black Snake froze in place, lost his mind for a few breaths. Then, with tears in the corners of his eyes, he looked up to the sky and sighed in front of many family warriors.

"God of hunting! I am sorry to the heroic ancestors, to the fighting warriors, and even more to the respected water snake Akotel!"

Seeing the patriarch's true feelings, the hundreds of warriors from the surrounding families all looked moved and their eyes were moist. Nieka was also moved by the Patriarch, squeezed out two tears from the corners of her eyes, and persuaded loudly.

"Patriarch! This is the test of the God of Hunting, and it is all arranged by the Mother of Destiny! You are the last hope of the descendant of the Black Snake God, you must keep your useful body! All our family warriors will die for you!"

"Okay! As long as you are here, the family still has hope!"

Black Snake clenched his fists and nodded heavily. He looked around at all the warriors following him, and promised concisely.

"The descendants of the Black Snake will not be extinct...From today onwards, you are all my people!"

Hearing such a promise, the low morale of the warriors was immediately lifted. The people of the Black Snake represent the identity of the descendants of the gods, that is, the threshold of the ruling class in the Tlaxcala Alliance.

Well, unlike the Mexica League, which captured prisoners and promoted them, the Tlaxcalans paid more attention to blood and valued the origin of warriors. Ordinary civilians are regarded as moths, and ordinary warriors are just lizards. Only the descendants of gods with noble blood are the noble and sacred "snakes"!

After the Black Snake promised in tears, he continued to run away with the warrior without stopping. He turned into Rufeng all the way until he escaped from the north gate, but he didn't send an envoy to warn the water snake.

"Here you are, gather the warriors at the north gate! When you see the Mexica chasing you, don't stop, and lead them to flee north! We will leave those who respond to us on the northern river bank!"

Neka left behind a few warriors, gave a few orders, and then hurriedly chased after the galloping Patriarch of the Black Snake. With the fall of Water Valley City, the Black Snake family became a tree without roots. It would be good to gather more warriors at this time.

The sound of the water was surging, and the sound of shouting and killing gradually became smaller. The Talsas River flows quietly southward, passing through the burning city of Waterdale, and then to the farther south. There are staggered mountains, which is the land of the Mixtec people. And after passing through the cascading mountains, the river turns westward, and it will go thousands of miles away, flowing through the rising kingdom, rushing straight into the sea!

"broken!"

Black Snake stood by the Tarsas River and found the large canoe of the city-state navy. He was about to board the boat when he suddenly stopped and looked to the south angrily.

"Patriarch, what's the matter?"

Nieka was out of breath and chased after her. He asked cautiously, and also looked to the south at Water Valley City.

"I escaped too quickly just now, leaving no manpower behind, and burning the grain in the warehouse! Now if we send dead soldiers, sneak back to the warehouse in the city, and set fire to it... I wonder if there will be time?"

"..."

Nieka pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and whispered.

"Patriarch, I heard that His Highness Mexica...maybe someone who can communicate."

"Um?"

Black Snake frowned, thought for a while, and understood what Neka meant. He sighed and shook his head.

"Things have come to this, if you think about it, it's just flowers at the end of autumn, and can't leave traces... Well, the food left behind may be the seeds of flowers..."

The two looked sad and stopped talking. The black snake boarded the big boat, looked towards the big city in the south, took a deep breath, and let it out slowly. After such a blow, he became tough like a hardened old vine.

"Nieka, let's go!"

"Patriarch, shall we go to the holy city of Cholula?"

"The holy city of Cholula?"

"Yes. That's the nearest big city, only fifty miles away! In the holy city, you can mobilize thousands of temple warriors and tens of thousands of pious militiamen!"

"..."

The warriors of the family rowed the big boat and headed northward against the current, not daring to stop at all. Black Snake was lost in thought and didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he shook his head firmly.

"No, we're not going to the holy city of Cholula! At this time, the priests and elders of the holy city are unreliable. They still have a way to retreat... The position of the holy city will definitely be shaken... Going there, but a dead end!"

"Ah? The Holy City sent warriors and priests to join us in the fight against the Mexica. They also sent envoys to the states asking for troops... After doing so much, do they still have a way out?"

Neka was puzzled. While rowing vigorously, he looked at the Patriarch who had regained his composure.

"Hmph! They will foolishly think that they still have a way out! These arrogant holy city priests and elders, who have been enshrined by the moth people for a long time, always think that they are not extraordinary, and even better than the descendants of gods! So~www .lightnovelpub.net~ They will also believe that the Mexica, who believe in the Nahua gods, would not dare to take a knife against the noble holy city no matter what."

"Ah... arrogant priests and elders!..."

Neka nodded, thought for a while, and asked.

"Then, where are we going?"

"Where are you going?"

Looking at the sunset in the sky, Black Snake sighed heavily.

"Let's go directly to the ancestral land of the Tlaxcala people, the mountain city that never falls, the most dangerous city of the four, the capital of the cloud snake, the city of Tepetik Patraxcala!"

"What? Going to the capital of the cloud snake? Patriarch, the descendant of the capital of the cloud snake, is not easy to get along with..."

"Let's go to the capital of the cloud snake!"

Black Snake looked solemn, and made a decision in a deep voice. Afterwards, he looked at the sun hanging in the west, at the gradually extending night, and spoke quietly. His voice was like the cold wind in the middle of the night, making people tremble, and it was like the low cry of a raven, carrying an ominous sign.

"...As for other places, I'm afraid I can't hold it~..."
