Aztec Eternals

The news of the New World and the new route swept Portugal and Castile like a storm on the sea. The wealth and news of the "East" brought waves of people's hearts to the entire Iberian Peninsula and even the Catholic world. The dawn of the new world has undoubtedly appeared!

When the storm in Iberia blew, the same undercurrent was also flowing in the hearts of the nobles on the Mexican Plateau 20,000 miles away. The camps of the southern expedition were stacked up, and the siege of Yunshan City had lasted for two years. The peak rainy season had just ended, and the food in the siege camp was almost consumed.

From the three southern states of Mexica, to the Tlaxcala Valley that had been conquered for several years, to the Shenshi City Valley where farming was forced, tens of thousands of civilians were recruited. They were hunched over, carrying a burden of one or two hundred kilograms, and under the supervision of the royal warriors, they continued to transport food to the front line at the cost of their lives.

Three armies attacked Mixtec Yunzhong, and the 100,000 troops were like vanilla beans, spreading into three long lines hundreds of miles away. The newly conquered Mixtec land was vast and desolate, and the captured food had long been consumed. As for the farmland of the local Mixtec tribe, it had been abandoned for two years!

The intense war was almost devastating to agricultural production. And without enough food output, it meant famine and death, all over Yunzhong within a radius of 600 miles...

For the alliance's southern expedition army, in addition to the Shenshi City Valley, which was forced to be farmed, it could be self-sufficient and solve the problem of food for 30,000 troops. The food supply for the remaining 70,000 people had to rely on long-distance logistics transportation.

Among them, the Kingdom of the Lakes took on the food consumption of 20,000 people in the Western Route Army through sea transportation. The logistics supply of the remaining 50,000 alliance troops must be continuously requisitioned and transported from the Tesco Lake area 700 miles away, from the three southern states of the alliance 600 miles away, and from the Tlaxcala Basin more than 500 miles away!

"Lord God! The food consumption in the expedition to the clouds is really too shocking! Six out of every ten kilograms of food transported by the three southern states was consumed on the long mountain road! Even so, two of the ten civilians who transported food would have died on the way..."

"This heavy loss and burden of food and manpower almost made the three southern states and the land of Tecaskala breathless!... Fortunately, His Highness Shulot invented the wheelbarrow, which can barely pass through the mountains, reducing the burden of the civilians... and reducing the loss of civilians by 30% to 40%..."

"Hey! When will this damn southern expedition end? The Mixtecs only have Shanhe City and Yunshan City left, the two cores in the middle and the east... It should be over soon, right?... Hmm! Who is it?!"

The young mountain chief Izel shook his head and sighed, and opened his big tent. As a result, he was shocked as soon as he got in! I saw a figure sitting on his straw bed with his head down and holding his breath, wearing a gray-green cloak.

"Damn! There's an assassin! Someone is coming..."

"It's me, old friend!"

"Huh? Sintel, why is it you?! You're not staying at the front line of the Huastec people, what are you doing here secretly?... By the way, how did you get into my tent by bypassing the guards?"

"I'm bringing people here to collect military rations. I came to you to chat... As for coming in, how many guards do you have? Aren't they all transferred to the front line by the God King?... Tsk tsk! I haven't seen you for a long time. You are in charge of the logistics of the siege camp, and you are still in high spirits!... Unlike me, I have been on the front line, fighting with the Zapotec bats... This southern expedition is really difficult! Outside are the enemy's sharp arrows, and inside is the God King's axe..."

"Old friend" Reed Chief Sintel looked gloomy, lifted his cloak, revealing a scarred face. Izel widened his eyes and asked in surprise.

"Xintel, are you injured? As the commander of the legion, did you lead the charge?..."

"Commander of the legion? Haha! With the God King intervening in the command, how many battalions can I control? As for the wound, those elusive Zapotec bat warriors are all good at guerrilla warfare and sneak attacks. They will run into a team at any time, and you have no choice..."

Xintel sneered, with undisguised resentment on his face. But soon, he calmed down, stared into Izel's eyes, and said in a deep voice.

"Izel, when you received the grain this time, you met the grain transport team of the two southern states, and two acquaintances, right?!... How did you talk?..."

"!... Sintel, how did you know? Did you join the secret guard of the God King?"

"Hehe! As the patriarch of a city-state like us, can we join the secret guard of the God King? I'm afraid the secret guards are watching us all day long!..."

"... Lord God! Why did you come here to meet me?... Sintel, you are so depressed, don't hurt me!..."

"Ha! Izel! Do you think your mountain family gave up half of Trolo? Kambang...Will the God King let you go? You are not so naive, are you? The God King wants everything! The direct control of the entire western city-state! ..."

"."

"Izel, you don't have to look around, and don't have to hold the dagger nervously...Don't worry! I am not testing you, and there are no secret guards monitoring us! Since I can come to find you, I will not be exposed to the secret guards...What's more, since the meticulous and flawless Gilim who murdered the nobles ruthlessly resigned as the God King's chief intelligence officer and took charge of the alliance's political affairs...The level of the God King's secret guards is not as good as it was in the past! ..."

"...?"

"Why, you don't believe it? How do you think I know so much information? That's because someone in the secret guards is telling me... Including this time, you met acquaintances in the two southern states, Gaoshan City and Salt Lake City... It was also someone secretly pulling the strings!..."    ".!"

Hearing this, Izel was shocked. He looked at Sintel in disbelief for a long time, looked around a few times, and then approached and whispered.

"There are our spies among the God King's secret guards? Is that true?"

"It's their spies, not ours! They are not in the same group with us! They just want to use us as a knife."

"Who are they?..."

"Where do you think the secret guards are recruited from? People that the God King can trust?"

"How do I know? ... Um... People that the God King can trust? The Lake City? Royal warriors?..."

"That's right! Then tell me, besides the God King, who else has a deep foundation in the Lake City and can reach out to the royal warriors?..."

"Ah! You mean? Montezuma II Prince Shiyu Yuyan? The royal family of the previous king Asar? …”

“.They do have this ability. I just met their messenger. But they are not the ones who delivered the message! They have been closely watched by the God King and are carefully guarded. They can't reach into the hands of the secret guards... Think about it, who else? Who can make a move in the lake capital and hide it from the God King, and even reach out to the secret guards? …”

“Who has such a great ability? It can't be...ah! Is it really them? How is it possible? Don't they respect the God King and are inseparable from the God King? …”

Izel thought for a moment and suddenly realized. He showed shock on his face, looked around again, and lowered his voice even more.

"All of them?"

"Definitely not all of them."

"Which ones are they?"

"...Do you think they will reveal themselves or tell me directly? This kind of sneaky secret plot is what they are best at! Even if they grab one or two vines, they will break directly and can't touch the top..."

"What do they want to do with you?"

"Not me, but us!"

Sintel narrowed his eyes and grasped Izel's hand. The scars on his face were trembling hideously. He emphasized "us" again, and then answered in a deep voice.

"I've said it! Looking for us, of course, is to use us as a knife!..."

"Knife who?..."

"What do you think?..."

"."

The tent fell into a long silence. And a hidden murderous intent was brewing in silence, hiding under the moonlight.

At this moment, under the evil guidance of the Moon Mother, the four hundred stars in the south cast the light of conspiracy, connecting the desire for overthrow. And their goal is like the light of the stars and the moon, shining towards the highest Snake Mountain of the Lord God~~
