The April spring breeze blew through the galloping warriors, and the slanting sun reflected the lush vegetation. The woods were sparse in the wilderness, casting long shadows; the long grass swayed on the soil, creating undulating waves.
The black wolf Toltec walked with bare feet, lowered his body, and quickly walked through the long grass. His eyes flashed with the excitement of chasing prey, and he was followed by a large number of lightly armored militiamen. The long grass in spring was more than one meter high.
, scattered all over the barren fields, also covering the figures of the hunters.
At this time, I listened carefully, and the cheers were endless, coming from the distant battlefield, mixed with hymns dedicated to the gods, and echoing in the high sky. And under the singing, a low-key and fast wave of grass, carrying
With the sound of rustling, they were attacking towards the southwest as fast as a pack of wolves.
King Suangua gritted his teeth and ran non-stop on the wilderness, like a wounded beast. Blood seeped out of his right arm from time to time, dyeing the bandaged cotton cloth red, and also causing bone-chilling pain. The young king
His head was covered with sweat and he was panting. Two guards carefully supported him from left to right.
After running like this for a long time, Suangua stopped for a moment and took a deep breath. The cruel battlefield was far away, the fragrance of green grass was in the wind, and the germination of life was in the wilderness. The despair of defeat was no longer on the king's face.
What remains is the perseverance that has become stronger and stronger after going through setbacks.
"Yuku, give me another jar of the priest's powerful divine water!"
Hearing this, General Yuku hesitated for a moment. Although the powerful divine water can suppress pain and rejuvenate tired warriors, it often damages the sharp mind. As the best warrior, he does not respect these mysterious potions.
But His Majesty's current situation...Yuku glanced at the sweat on the king's face and whispered instructions to the guard beside him.
"Bring me the divine water."
The guard took out the soft cloth bag from the burlap bag, and then carefully took out the closed clay pot from the cloth bag. Yuku took the pot, opened it and tasted it, and then handed the pot to the king.
Suan Gua drank the divine water in one gulp, and the bitter taste echoed in his mouth, but his face instantly became brighter. Datura flowers from tropical America brought powerful analgesic scopolamine, and Amanita muscaria from the northern forest
It provides muscimol that stimulates the spirit. The combination of the two transformed the injured and exhausted king into a brave and strong warrior in just a few moments.
"Your Majesty, please continue to persevere! The sun has already set, and as long as it gets dark, it will be difficult for the Mexicans to catch up with us!"
Yuku looked at the red sky, hope rising again on his face.
Suangua nodded with a smile and patted the general on the shoulder. The warriors who blocked him could not hold on for long, and they had to get back on the road immediately.
At this moment, Yuku's intact right ear swayed slightly, and his expression suddenly changed. He turned around suddenly, stared at the grass in the north, then solemnly raised his right hand and shouted in a low voice.
"Raise your shield and be on guard!"
The guards quickly faced the north and got into a fighting stance. Two guards held up their large shields and immediately protected the king in the corner. Within a moment, accompanied by howling like wolves, a fierce rain of arrows pierced through.
The grass is too long, and it shoots up from the sky!
The black wolf Toltec suddenly stopped. He stood up, drew his big bow, and shot accurately! A guard on the outermost side dropped his shield in an instant, covered his throat, and fell to the ground splattered with blood. Then,
Toltec continued to run a few steps, and suddenly looked at Yuku in the middle of the military formation. The black wolf grinned, and fired another lightning arrow at the hound a hundred steps away!
"It's you!"
Seeing Toltec's appearance, Yuku's face turned livid, and his heart sank. The hound took off the long bow without hesitation, jumped to the left, and dodged nimbly. Then, he quickly attached the bronze arrow,
Aim slightly and shoot with the same sharpness.
The black wolf dodged to the right, dodged the whistling arrows, and drew back the arrows again. The two of them kept moving, like fallen leaves spinning in the autumn wind, shooting death arrows alternately! More than a hundred experienced people
The tribal hunters also arrived one after another. They were separated by a hundred steps and shot at each other with the copper ax guards who took out their bows and arrows, and then they fell together bleeding.
After only two rounds of precise shooting, more than 20 people from both sides were hit by arrows and fell to the ground. Yuku's expression changed again. He jumped two steps back and looked at the enemies who were gathering more and more. He was about to break through two miles away.
The samurai commander who blocked the way shouted decisively.
"Bronze Ax Guards, skirmishers charge!"
Nearly two hundred guards shouted together. They dropped their long bows, raised their copper axes, and rushed towards the hunters with wild shouts. The hunters in the front row only had time to send out a wave of arrows, and shot down more than ten people again.
The warriors of Tarasco were thrown into the formation by the charging guards!
Although the archery skills of the tribal hunters are strong, they are far from the opponents of the guards in close combat, and their armor coverage rate is far inferior. Wherever the shining copper ax is swung, blood is splashed and heads fall to the ground. Toltec replaces
With a war stick, he killed a tough warrior with a few moves. Then he saw Yuku leading a dozen copper-axe guards, killing the militia blocking the road twice, and rushing towards him.
Black Wolf's eyelids twitched and his heart trembled. He immediately turned around and ran away, shouting repeatedly.
"When the water overflows, everyone will run away alive! Kill across the wind, bite tight and don't let go!"
The leader relaxed, and the guards hunters also ran away skillfully, escaping two to three hundred steps in one breath. When the guards stopped charging, turned around and retreated, the defeated hunters gradually gathered again, far away
He chased the retreating enemy and fired arrows.
The lightly-armored hunters have excellent physical strength and are good at running. Under the command of the black wolf, they pursued closely and repeatedly harassed the guards' formation. Once the guards turned around and charged, they immediately fled. This was repeated several times.
, after traveling several miles, the longbow hunters lost nearly two hundred people, and the guards also suffered nearly half casualties.
"A bunch of cowardly hyenas!"
Yuku stood in the sparse woods, staring at the "wolf pack" hanging behind him. His face was full of anger, and his eyes were spitting fire. The sun god was about to sink into the abyss, and the setting sun dyed the clouds in the sky, making the road ahead in the west clear.
Many crimson chasing hunters collapsed and refused to disperse, so the guards were unable to gallop at full speed. However, the large group of pursuers in the distance had already broken through the barriers and accelerated towards this side!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! General Yuku looked up to the sky and roared, sighing deeply. He knelt down on one knee to the king, then bowed deeply to the left and right, and said sincerely to the guards.
"My loyal brothers. If the condor of Tarasco wants to survive, it can only offer more sacrifices to the three gods! For the survival of the royal family, for the support of generations, and for the loyalty of the praetorian warriors
, please stay here and work hard until dark! After dark, you can freely choose your own path!"
Seeing this farewell scene, Suangua closed his eyes. The young king covered his face with his left hand and let tears fall down his face.
The remaining hundreds of bronze-axe guards looked at each other for a while, and showed their determination to die. They knelt down one after another, kowtowed to the supreme king, and then saluted the respected general. Then, these last elites of Tarasco fought to the death.
Turn around, raise the big shield, and attack the approaching enemy.
Yuku counted his breaths in silence and spoke in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty, let's get on the road quickly!"
Su Angua nodded silently, and with the support of the last two guards, he continued to escape to the southwest, towards the direction of hope and life.
The bone arrows whizzed through the air and hit the strong shield, making a muffled sound. The elite guards relied on the sparse woods to form a scattered formation to cover each other. A group of daring hunters rushed forward
After entering the forest, within a moment, he was chopped down to the ground by the guards holding the bronze axe.
The black wolf Toltec frowned. He looked at the enemy formation, and there was no sign of the enemy general. He looked at the sky again, and the setting sun filled the sky with red light, like the generous promise of the God of War. Toltec gritted his teeth, and finally
He looked at the samurai commander who was running first from behind, and shouted to the left and right in a deep voice.
"I, Toltec, have been chasing for so long, and I must not let the prey escape from my eyes! You stay here, shoot at the enemy, and obey the control of the Holy Eagle Warrior Commander! Now, the brave black wolf will personally attack and kill the cunning
The hounds are captured by the Wolf King!"
After saying that, the black wolf Toltec took a deep breath and ran quickly without waiting for the advice of his guards. He flew around the front of the enemy at a speed that exceeded that of ordinary people, and then suddenly plunged into the sparse woods. The mottled forest
Shadows flashed under his feet, and the dark red sky reflected in his eyes. The black wolf enjoyed running in the wind, chasing the escaping opponent alone, no matter how strong the opponent was!
Less than half a quarter of an hour later, the warrior captain Bertard led hundreds of elite warriors and hurried forward. He looked at the guards defending in the forest, thought for a moment, waved a small flag, and moved to the left and right sides.
One finger each. The Mexica warriors immediately divided into two teams, relying on their numerical advantage to outflank the enemy's flanks. Then, the warrior chief looked around at the loose formation of hunters and asked loudly.
"Toltec? Where did Toltec go?"
"Dear Chief Commander, Lord Black Wolf just abandoned his troops, detoured from the south, and went to hunt down the enemy commander alone!"
A tribal leader kowtowed to the ground and replied respectfully.
"What? Hunting down the hound alone!"
Bertard suddenly changed his color and cursed in a rare voice.
"You are a wolf who abandons his legion and throws life and death into the air. When you catch up with the enemy general, it is not certain who will chase whom!"
Black Wolf was a junior promoted by him. He was the most outstanding talent among the civilian followers. He was also the most favored by His Highness. It was related to the long-term plan... Thinking of this, Bertard gritted his teeth and made a decision. He made a decision.
The lieutenant shouted an order loudly.
"This place is under your command! Defeat the remaining enemies and kill them without mercy!"
Then, the warrior captain carried a long bow on his back, abandoned the chasing guards, quickly bypassed the fighting army formation, and rushed into the forest like a tiger or wolf. He soon discovered the movement track in the woods and quickly chased away.
At the end of the long trajectory, the hound Yuku stopped again and looked at the arrow disappearing in the forest above his head. He made a low-key gesture and asked the two guards to cover the king, and then turned around again. Unparalleled
The warrior's face was as dark as the bottom of an endless dark lake, staring deeply at the pursuing black wolf.
A hundred paces away, Toltec shook the longbow in his hand. He looked excited and grinned heartily.
"Yuku, I, Toltec, have finally caught up with you! Don't run away anymore, let's have a showdown to see who is the bravest warrior!!"
Yuku's face was like a sculpture and he made no sound. He was silent for a moment, took out a jar of divine water from his arms, pulled off the sealed pottery lid, and drank it completely for the first time. Then, an abnormal blush appeared on his face,
The majestic power quickly surged through his body.
The hound felt the sudden vitality and inexplicable excitement, and finally couldn't help but reveal a ferocious smile before hunting!
