Chapter 789: The army attacks, breaks out the stronghold and attacks the city
"Bless the Lord God! Her light comes from the red Kingdom of God and shines on the blue earth! She gives us the glory in this life, and she gives us the peace after death! We are willing to fight for her glory, and we are willing to fight for her.
Dedicate yourself to the glory of the world!..."
Pious and fervent prayers rang out from the throwing pioneer camp, accompanied by the blessings and announcements of the accompanying priests, inspiring the fearless throwing warriors.
The chief of Hidden Snake City boasted that the snake was wearing leather armor, carrying a throwing spear on his back, and holding a copper axe. He stood high on the wall of the main village. He followed the direction of the prayer and looked at the shouting guard camp in the distance, instinctively
Feeling uneasy.
"Bah! The Feathered Serpent and the Blessing of the Ancestors! The main adobe stronghold has two circles of wooden walls, and the two small villages have a circle of wooden walls, both of which are four meters high! How can such a strong fortress be conquered with just a few prayers?
You know, the priests of Hidden Snake Holy City are also praying for us!"
The chieftain praised the snake for his confidence, and slapped his shield with his copper axe, boosting the morale of the city-state warriors on the wall.
"The gods bless us! We have seven thousand defenders! There is a steady stream of waterway support! We will keep the Mexica people here until the rainy season arrives!..."
"Dongdongdong!..."
Continuous sounds of war drums sounded from the kingdom's camp, and battalions of thousands of people began to line up. Seeing the direction where these kingdom warriors gathered, the chief looked solemn, knowing that the Mexica people were going to attack two places today.
Xiaozhai. He immediately ordered his personal guards to select five hundred elite Hidden Snake warriors, preparing to wait until the opponent could not attack the stronghold and was exhausted, and then attack in a surprise attack!

"The other side has less than 10,000 people. I have 7,000 people in my hands and a strong fortress. As long as we hold on for another three months, it will be the rainy season in May..."
Chief Kua Snake narrowed his eyes and thought secretly in his heart. At this moment, he still has the confidence to defend the city and the fighting spirit to fight to the end!
"Dongdongdong!..."
The sound of war drums gradually became louder, and more than a thousand Totonak surrender soldiers, holding simple and wide wooden shields, advanced to the two small villages. The bone arrows on the walls of the villages were immediately shot down from above.
The "duh" sound of impact kept ringing on the shield, getting denser and denser. From time to time, the surrender soldiers were hit by arrows from the side and fell softly to the ground. The shooting at the top of the city only lasted for a moment, and the formation of the surrender soldiers
It began to become unstable and showed signs of collapse. Until two thousand Guakili warriors holding long bows arrived steadily, stood close, and shot sharp arrows!
"Swish swish!..."
The defenders on the two small villages were shot down dozens of times in an instant, and screams broke out. Then, the shootings from both sides came and went, and the archers on the walls of the villages became alert and careful, and the shooting speed dropped significantly.
The formation of the surrendering soldiers also stabilized.
"Damn it! These thick-skinned archers with big bows barely suffered any casualties in the shooting!..."
The chieftain pursed his lips and his expression became serious. The Mexica people were fighting everywhere, and the manufacturing technology of large bows had also spread throughout Central America. However, this kind of large bows required tough wooden arrows, and each tribe was subject to
Due to the scarcity of bronze tools and the shortage of craftsmen, they could only be produced in small quantities and equipped in the hands of the most elite warriors.
In other words, the production capacity of each department is not enough and they cannot produce too much equipment. In the entire world, only the powerful Mexica Alliance can form a crossbow regiment of thousands of people.
"The Mexica have so many archers... I'm afraid I won't be able to survive the rainy season..."
The chief praised the snake and was worried, and the passionate drums sounded again from the opposite side.
"Dongdongdong!..."
More than a thousand Totonak's surrendered troops, under the supervision of the warriors supervising the battle, held high axes in the front row and wooden ladders in the back row, and rushed towards the two small villages. Soon, they arrived in front of the village
, braved the feather arrows and spears fired from time to time, and chopped down a wooden fence outside the village wall. The sporadic screams of the surrendering soldiers were covered up by the fierce drums, and during the siege, there were supervisors.
The team's "morale bonus" means they are not easily defeated.
"Put up the ladder! Rush up!..."
"Witness the Lord God! The warrior who ascended first has been promoted to three levels in a row and joined the official legion!..."
Military merit is the most important thing for the Kingdom in the Lake, and the military merit of attacking the city first is also the most important. Under the supervision of the supervising team, and inspired by the generous rewards, more than a thousand surrendered warriors rushed to the two walls and fought with them.
The two thousand Hidden Snake Legion guarding the stronghold started fighting at close quarters!
Large swaths of blood-red bloomed at the top of the city, like clusters of red flowers blooming among the dense "ant colonies" and "bee swarms". Then the petals withered and the warriors dropped like insects.
Some people kept screaming and falling off the wall, while others kept shouting and continued to climb up. Both sides were warriors of Totonac, but in different camps, fighting to the death!
"Hey! After His Highness arrived, even the morale of the surrendered soldiers has increased!"
The black wolf Toltec looked at the two small villages where they were fighting, his eyes flashing with surprise.
His Highness brought powerful reinforcements, the King's comfort, and the promise of granting lands and titles. His Highness even changed the name, changing "Totonac Surrender Camp" to "Totonac Recruitment Camp".
A new "Totonac Pioneer Battalion" was also formed to specifically promote Totonac warriors who performed well in battle.
It is said that according to the practice of conquering the land of Tlaxcala, this "Totonac Pioneer Battalion" is likely to eventually expand into the eighth legion of the kingdom! And now, for the sake of the possible position of legion commander,
All the generals are full of energy and want to make contributions in the war!
"Ha! Even if a new legion is formed, it will not be under my control... After winning this battle, I can find an opportunity to test His Highness's tone... See if I can expand the Guakili legion in my hand to
The scale of 10,000 people is just enough to officially integrate the 2,000 Metek Pioneer Battalion that has been trained into the legion..."
Black Wolf was thinking instinctively while looking at the fighting on the wall. The Totonac defenders in the two small villages were all elites of the Eastern Allied Forces. The large group of surrendered soldiers fought on the wall and were driven back.
Despite this, they were unable to expand the results of the battle. The biggest effect of their fighting was to consume the defenders' physical strength and morale, providing the most suitable opportunity for the next fatal blow!
After a moment, Black Wolf Toltec smiled and shook his head, waving the red flag in his hand.
"Witness the Lord God! The courage of the surrendering soldiers only lasted a while, and now they are about to collapse again... We still have to let the throwing pioneers take action!"
"Didi!"
The command flag was waved, and the sharp sound of conch trumpets sounded from the front line of the fight. Hearing the sound of retreating trumpets, the remaining more than 800 surrendered troops no longer had to hold on, turned around and jumped off the wall of the village, and collapsed towards the rear.
.
"Whoosh whoosh!"
The defenders at the top of the city had just breathed a sigh of relief when Dapeng's boneless arrows rose from the kingdom's military formation, killing dozens of people on the spot!
"Winter! Winter! Winter! Winter!"
The fierce war drums beat with the fastest rhythm, deafening. Then, under the uneasy gaze of the chief, more than a hundred Mexican fanatical warriors shouted the name of the gods and held the smoking guns in their arms.
The "strange ball" ran towards the two damaged villages.
"Huh? This is... this seems to be... the magical weapon of the Mexicans?!"
On the wall of the main village, the chief Kua Snake frowned, thinking hard for a few breaths, and his eyes suddenly widened. As these warriors approached, the pious and fearless shouts also reached the ears of the defenders, like
The proclamation of death.
"Fight for God, die for God! God's power is mighty, and God's thunder is coming!..."
