v2 Chapter 936: Ancient sacrificial lake, psychic lake o

The latest website: "The main force of the army rested in Keshi City for three days, and then continued to march! The next target is Jihu City, which is more than a hundred miles away along the lake! As long as that city-state is captured, Hidden Snake City will be close at hand! ..."

"The lord **** blesses you! Haha! The new year's festival in early January, I'm going to celebrate the New Year in Jihu City!..."

The December sun was clear and clear, and the marching team by the sea was mighty. Four thousand Totonak pioneers and six thousand dog-born warriors trekked along the coast, through the mud and jungle by the sea, all the way to the east. Thousands of tribal returning troops carried long shoulder poles and heavy bamboo baskets, and followed behind with difficulty, acting as auxiliary soldiers carrying supplies and equipment.

On the coast, one or two hundred double-hull and single-hull canoes, under the control of the Donghai Navy, transported really large-scale food and military supplies. And in Baiwan Village and Zhuiwu City in the rear, there are also dozens or hundreds of transport boats, shuttling back and forth. To maintain the front-line supplies of more than 10,000 legions, the jungle terrain on the road is too difficult. The coastal transport boats gradually became the main force of logistics and the lifeline of the army.

At the beginning of January, Hei Lang led the army and finally arrived at the city of Jihu. The four-meter-high ancient brick wall, the towering small pyramid temple, the eye-catching stone statues standing in the field, the Olmec relics that can be seen everywhere, and an extremely wide sacrificial lake, all of which are reflected in the black wolf eyelids!

Seeing the arrival of the kingdom's legion, the walls of Jihu City are full of guarding warriors and militiamen. They yelled and cursed loudly at the top of the city, and provoked outside the city, but no army dared to go out of the city to fight in the field.

During the two or three years of fighting, the ministries of Totonac have already understood a **** reality. That is, even if the Eastern Allied Forces had more than twice the force advantage, they would not be able to defeat a kingdom army of thousands of people head-on. Not only that, even the tribes who surrendered to the kingdom, as long as there are hundreds of kingdom warriors sitting in the town and fighting one-on-one field battles, they will not be able to fight.

Therefore, when the army is approaching the city, the choice of offering sacrifices to Hucheng is still to conscript all the food and young men into the city, and then stick to it. The location of this city-state is in the town of Catemaco () in the state of Veracruz, Mexico in later generations.

This ancient city-state has been passed down for more than a thousand years. The main features of the surrounding area, one is the remains of the Olmec era, and the other is the vast Katmaco sacrificial lake. The area of ​​Katmako Lake is about 72 square kilometers, and it is one of the largest lakes within two hundred miles around! The Olmecs once held countless sacred sacrifices and sacrifices on this ancient and magnificent lake. After the Totonacs occupied the seashore, they also held sacrifices frequently.

Therefore, at the bottom of this lake, there are many bones and treasures buried, which have been unearthed one after another in later generations. And precisely because of the ancient and famous sacrificial activities, this Katmaco town has gradually become the "psychic town of witchcraft" in later generations. In February every year, a grand "Witchcraft Festival" is held in this "Witchcraft Town"! And the ancient Katmaco Lake has become a "mysterious lake", a "psychic witchcraft lake", attracting "wizards" and tourists from all over the world... Even the word "Katmako" has become The pronouns of "witchcraft" and "magic" are gone!

"The south and east sides of Jihu City are close to the big lake. There are boats patrolled by the Eastern Alliance on the lake, sending supplies continuously... Only the west and north sides can launch a siege... No! There is also a big river from the west, splitting the west city The terrain outside, the river is surrounded by tidal flats and mud, it is difficult to deploy troops...Damn it! Then only the north side is suitable for attacking the city!"

The black wolf Toltek took hundreds of guards and spent half a day swaggering around the entrenched Jihu City under the watchful eyes of the defenders. Although the head of the city scolded fiercely, but not a single army was drawn out.

"Witness of the Lord God! The remnants of the Totonak tribes have lost their nerve... But the former chief of Jihu City died in Jinwan City. The descendants of the gods and priests in the city will not surrender. If they surrender, they will die... This It looks like a tough city, but you still have to fight head-on!..."

After thinking about it, Hei Lang shook his head coldly, and immediately made preparations to attack Jihu City.

"From the navy's boat, unload the disassembled and transported equipment. Build a thick shield car! Build a ladder with a hook! ...Where is the bronze beast? Has the bronze beast arrived?"

"Boss, in the area around Lake Sacrifice City, the Totonak fleet is very powerful...the Royal Navy on the sea has been fighting with the enemy's large and small boats...the coastline is not under control, and boats are constantly being sunk. The bronze beasts of the Legion were too precious, so they did not take the water route, but were carried by the tribal militiamen!... I guess at the moment, they are still in the woods behind, arching around in the patches of mud... at least eight Arrived in nine days!..."

Uta, the red-haired hunter, was covered in dirt, with a frowning face, and reported back to the leader of the black wolf. The farther east you go, the more rivers, lakes, swamps, and muddy fields there will be.

He has always been good at running, but in such a rainforest terrain, he couldn't run at all, not even as fast as those local warriors in the Totonac Pioneer Camp. Thinking about it now, it is still comfortable to fight on the Mexica plateau. What kind of bad land is this seaside place? I can't walk ten or twenty miles a day! …

"However, boss, the Vanguard Battalion has brought one or two hundred divine power balls. As long as the forwards who are trapped in the formation set up ladders, and the desperate warriors charge up and throw them! The city walls here are not high, and the terrain by the lake is short... the divine power circles If the ball is thrown right and it explodes, isn’t that better than the Bronze Beast?…”

"You're the one who's smart! Get lost!... Go and give me another order! Get the wolves in each battalion to move! In addition, order another 3,000 wolf cubs from the surrender army to sweep the surrounding land for thirty miles ! If there are any tribes ~lightnovelpub.net~ who have not escaped, I will capture them!"

"Okay! Boss!"

The red-haired hunter Uta rolled over on the ground skillfully, adding another layer of mud to his body, and then ran away.

"The fleet of the Totonac people stopped the kingdom's East China Sea Navy from fighting... Big boats and small boats... Hmm? The Totonac people have always been small boats, where did they get the big boats?!"

Thinking of this, Black Wolf Toltek couldn't sit still. After fighting for so long, the army's siege tactics have long been very proficient, and they can proceed step by step without his command. Although this lake sacrifice city looks tricky, under the long-range suppression and strong attack of the kingdom's superiority, it probably won't last long, as long as there is enough time...

However, most of the logistics support of the army is maintained by the navy. And if there is a problem with the navy and there is not enough food... then he must immediately order most of the tribal army and the vanguard battalion to retreat! …

"God bless you! Go! Hurry up! All the red-haired hunters have big bows on their backs, and follow me to the north ten miles away to see the fighting by the sea!"
