Accompanied by Toltec's shouts, the big tent instantly became quiet. The warm night wind blew, and the bonfire in the center shone, reflecting the surprised faces of the generals and also illuminating the unconscious King Tarasco on the ground. All
People's eyes looked at the captured "white deer" and the black wolf with its head raised at the same time.
Hearing Black Wolf's words, Shulot's eyes lit up and he stood up suddenly. He first smiled and nodded approvingly to Black Wolf. Then, he glanced at the warrior captain at the door, and his eyes were slightly on Yuku's head.
He paused and sighed softly in his heart. Finally, the young king took two steps forward and came to the center of the tent. He looked at the prisoner's face and solemnly gave the order.
"Quickly call General Horta, the head of the Sky family who is accompanying the army; and then call General Orta, the head of the Crocodile family in the rear camp."
The two guards left immediately, and the solemn silence continued in the tent. His Highness in the middle was thoughtful and silent, and Marshal Iskali, who was at the head, also stood up. He walked slowly to Xiulote's side,
Staring at the "white deer" on the ground, there is complex expectation in his eyes.
The long wind at night blew the big tent, making a roaring sound, which was like the heartbeat of everyone, making the moment of silence become longer. Soon, the young head of the Tian family came in a hurry and was the first to arrive. As soon as he entered the big tent
, when he saw His Highness in the middle, he immediately fell to the ground and saluted, praising him respectfully.
"Congratulations to Your Highness on your great victory! You are the real eagle, ruling the 'sky' of Tarasco!"
Hearing this, Shulot smiled faintly. He waved to Horta to come closer, and then pointed to the ground.
"Horta, look carefully, who is he?"
Young Horta leaned down obediently. He looked at the blood-stained prisoner, with a moment of doubt on his face. He looked at His Highness inquiringly, then took out his handkerchief and wiped off the dirt and blood on the prisoner's face.
Horta looked at it for a while, suddenly thought of something, opened his mouth in surprise, and even dropped the handkerchief from his hand.
"Ah, he, he...is he...?"
The gazes of all the generals gathered together, bringing with them a huge pressure. Iskali's eyes were cold and stern, he stepped forward, grabbed Horta's shirt, and asked in a stern tone.
"Is he the king of Tarasco? Are you sure?"
The young Horta was at a loss and looked panicked. He nodded subconsciously at first, then shook his head in panic, and was speechless for a moment.
At this moment, the tent door opened again. Accompanied by two guards, a tall and majestic figure with a slight stoop and no weapons walked in quickly from outside the tent door. Ospai looked miserable, with his head half lowered.
He quickly took a look at the situation in the tent. Then, his face instantly turned pale, his movements suddenly stopped, and his eyes widened in shock. The crocodile marshal suddenly took two steps forward and threw himself on Su Angua, tears streaming from his eyes.
Come.
"His Majesty!..."
Ospie cried out in pain. He shook Suangua's body, trying to grab something, but couldn't.
Shulot raised his hand and stopped the bodyguard who had drawn his weapon. His eyes were bright, he patted Ospai's shoulder and asked in a deep voice.
"Ospai, are you sure he is Suangua?"
Osipai raised his head, looked at the majestic His Highness, and nodded desperately.
"Yes... Your Majesty... He is the king of Tarasco, the bloodline of the contemporary condor."
"Hahaha! Ouch! Roar!"
The generals instantly became excited, shouting loudly, and loud cheers finally erupted in the commander's tent! The faces of the warriors were filled with uncontrollable excitement, and Toltec opened his arms and howled like a coyote.
Shulot smiled and nodded, and the veteran Etalik played the loud flute. The generals stood up amidst the sound of the flute and saluted His Highness. Then, the warriors raised their weapons and roared in unison! There was a wave of cheers.
It turned into a thunderous roar, a wild cry that shocked the heart, and gathered into an unstoppable force!
In the frenzied camp, Iskali was silent for a moment, then lowered his head and saluted solemnly to His Highness in the middle. Horta's legs became weak and he fell to the ground weakly. He could not say a word and could only kneel down.
He fell at His Highness's feet.
After a moment of excitement, the monkey Kuruka raised his right fist high and was the first to shout the slogan,
"Your Highness is victorious! A great victory in the Western Expedition!"
"Your Highness is victorious! A great victory in the Western Expedition!"
All the generals roared in unison.
"God bless the king! His Highness God Qi!"
"God bless the king! His Highness God Qi!"
The generals saluted again.
Shulot stood in the big tent. He looked at the many warriors who were bowing their heads, and his heart felt very happy, as if he drank a cup of cool and sweet spring water in midsummer and felt slightly tipsy. The young king laughed.
, slowly raised his hand, and the noise immediately stopped.
"Pour the wine!"
Hulot took the wine glass and looked around at the generals. Wherever he looked, the warriors lowered their heads. Finally, he looked at Iskali, and the senior Mexica marshal also took a step back and bowed his head in greeting.
"First cup, congratulations to the Lord God! Praise my God!"
"Praise my God!"
The light tequila reverberated in the mouth, it was cool but bitter, and had a unique "cactus" taste. Shulot smiled, and even his body and mind relaxed.
"The second cup, congratulations to the king! Praise my king!"
"Praise my king!"
The bonfire swayed, and green smoke rose in the tent, flying far away from the skylight on the top of the tent, until it reached the infinite sky. Shulot looked up for a moment, only to feel that he was about to fly, and the heaven and earth were at his feet.
"The third cup, congratulations to all the generals sitting here! The victory of this battle depends entirely on the generals' hard work and the samurai's bravery. I will keep your achievements in my heart! I promised before the battle that after this battle is won,
, conferred knighthoods for military merit, and allotted fields... I will keep this promise, and I will never break my promise!"
"Praise to Your Highness!!"
Warm cheers rang out again. The warriors' faces showed eagerness, and the generals' eyes shone. A victorious Western Expedition would allow them to ride on the wind and walk on a road that would take several generations to accumulate!
"The fourth cup is congratulations to the black wolf Toltec! He won the duel, held back the reinforcements from the north, and even captured the king of Tarasco! The black wolf made the first contribution in this battle!"
Shulot stepped forward, poured the wine himself, and handed it to his favorite general Toltec. The young black wolf took the wine glass, looked around proudly, raised his glass to pay tribute to the generals, and then drank it all in one gulp. The monkey Kuruka's eyes flashed, he
Calmly, he followed the generals and drank the remaining wine in the cup.
"Toltec, you are my favorite black wolf, you have never failed to live up to my expectations!"
Shulot was smiling. He patted Black Wolf's shoulder affectionately, then held the other person's arm, raised it high, and announced to everyone.
"Toltec captured the king of Tarasco! From today on, he is the 'chief falcon warrior' of the alliance! He is a world-famous warrior who captured the white deer!"
"Chief Falcon Warrior!"
Low discussions echoed in the camp. The generals looked surprised, with uncontrollable envy in their expressions. The Eagle Warrior itself is a symbol of military nobility. The title of Falcon is considered to be the strongest among the Eagle Warriors.
Or, the name of chief represents the lofty status and the authority to command the army. From today on, Toltec has transcended the shackles of civilian origin and has become one of the top generals among the military aristocrats!
"My black wolf, do you have anything to say?"
Shulot smiled and looked at his beloved general, then at Kuruka, indicating something.
Toltec clenched his right fist and patted his chest hard. His sword eyebrows were raised, and his words were full of proud confidence.
"I, Toltec, am your highness's black wolf, brave and skilled in battle, unstoppable! I captured the enemy marshal and captured the king of Tarasco. No one can stop me! As long as your highness gives an order, I will do it for you."
The wolf king is galloping to catch prey from all the armies!"
Hearing this, there was a moment of silence in the big tent, and all the generals were silent. Bertard coughed lightly and spoke with a smile.
"On the way back, Toltec mentioned to me that I would like to express my gratitude to several generals and propose a toast to them!"
Hearing the words of the warrior captain, Toltec was stunned for a moment. He looked up and saw Bertard nodding slightly and moving his hands slightly.
"Oh? Very good, serve wine to Black Wolf! It is indeed not easy for the Chinese army to break through the enemy's formation and force Suangua to flee in this battle!"
With a smile on his face, Shulot patted Toltec on the shoulder again.
Black Wolf hesitated for a moment, and then remembered the warrior commander's instructions. He turned around, faced Kuruca and Ezpan, lowered his head slightly, and raised his glass in greeting.
"The spear corps of the Chinese army was tenacious and brave, and took the lead in breaking through the enemy's formation! The two generals are also quite capable in fighting. The Chinese army deserves half the credit for capturing the king! I, Toltec, am here to propose a toast to the two generals!"
After saying that, Hei Lang drank two glasses of wine and bowed sincerely.
The monkey Kuruka and the miner Ezpan stood up at the same time. They drank water and wine and returned the gift, their smiles a little more sincere.
Xiulote nodded and asked Hei Lang to sit down next to him. Then, he poured another glass of water and wine and said solemnly.
"The central army is moving forward hard, and the two wings are fighting to the death! The warriors sacrificed their lives heroically to go to the Kingdom of God. The sacrifices of the religious legions were especially tragic. Come, General Etalik, General Natali, Teacher Orosh, and drink this cup.
, bless the sacrificial warriors!”
"Bless the fallen warriors!"
After all the generals drank the glass, the atmosphere became a little more solemn. Hulot once again poured the wine himself and handed the glass to Iskali beside him.
"This glass is dedicated to Marshal Iskali! The advance army on the southern route worked tirelessly, marching north day and night, forcing the Royal Tarasco army to launch a decisive battle and carry out a desperate assault! Thank you, dear Doomsday Moon, for winning for our army
Strategic advantage!”
Facing Xiulote's toast, Iskali was slightly stunned. A stiff and rare smile appeared on his usually cold face. Marshal Nanlu drank all the water and wine in one gulp and said seriously.
"The Northern Route Army split the thorns, broke through the fortresses, and defeated the enemy! The tigers of Mexico leaped forward, and the deer of Tarasco fled in all directions. It is really amazing! The king has always valued His Highness and regarded him as an alliance.
The sun of the future. I once had doubts about His Highness... To this day, I am just humbled and convinced!"
Then, Iskali, who was born in the royal family, pondered for a moment and then spoke sincerely.
"After this battle, Your Highness will rise as brightly as the sun, and your reputation will be known across the east and west lakes! How lucky our family is to receive such divine grace. The elder is so famous that he suppresses the alliance; the king is wise and decisive, commanding all the tribes; Your Highness is wise
Good at fighting, leading the army alone...God has blessed our people, so I promise the world! The king has mentioned the plan after the Western Expedition, and His Highness has already known it. After conquering Tarasco, the rich land in the lake will be guarded by His Highness.
!As long as we slaughter all the rebellious ministers and rebellious people, relocate the nobles of the nation, and control the fertile land here, the alliance will have no enemies to fight against!!"
Speaking of this, the words of the end of the moon were full of blood, just like his eyes full of murderous intent. Then, Iskali paused, restrained the boiling murderous intent, and hesitated for a long time. He stared at
Shulot's eyes, which were always clear, looked at the young man's increasingly heroic face, and finally spoke loudly again.
"Your Highness, we are both descendants of the royal family. Many of our nobles support you just as we support the great king! Your Highness, please calm down and work hard for a few years. The king will work with you both inside and outside.
Manage the lake area and conquer all directions! Once we conquer the old enemies, the Tlaxcalans, and pacify the three disloyal southern tribes, the world will belong to the great alliance! And if we can see coming from all directions in this life, we can go to God with a smile.
Kingdom, meet the late king Montezuma. After His Highness succeeds, he will become the first eagle to rule the world in the history of the alliance!!"
After listening to Iskali's words and savoring the obedience and admonition contained in them, Shulot was quiet for a moment and nodded slowly and forcefully.
"Good! Very good!"
The lowered Tepopolo clenched his wine glass and looked at his old friend in disbelief. If all the royal families were united, the great nobles from all over the world... After a moment, he lowered his head in silence and drank the wine in the glass as well.
All.
Shulot thought for a while, then smiled. He raised the wine glass in his hand and said to the generals with a smile.
"What the Marshal said is absolutely true! My ambition is between the East and West Lakes, and even beyond the endless lakes! The world we know is just a small island in Lake Texcoco. Beyond this world, there is
There is the land of Maya in the southeast, the Quetzalcoatl Islands in the lake, the boundless forest in the north, the distant country in the south... and beyond, there is an unimaginable vast world! I will follow in the footsteps of the elders and work with the king
We will work together until a new era begins! Generals sitting here, please follow me. I will definitely promise you a future that is unimaginable at the moment!"
"This last glass is for the future in my eyes!"
"Congratulations to Your Highness!!"
The boiling sound sounded again, like the hymn of the gods! In this hymn of the new era, King Tarasco woke up in a daze. In his ears were the noisy celebration songs, mixed with inaudible whispers.
Crying makes people feel lost.
Su Angua groaned lowly, and finally opened his eyes weakly, looking dimly at the bonfire in front of him. At this moment, the bonfire swayed, and he saw burning flames rising from the tent, burning away all the old things.
The cocoa of the sun swept across the vast earth until it burned across the entire sky!
