Chapter 656 The 2nd Kingdom Expedition, Negotiations Before the Battle, The Beginning of Destiny
The sun is fading, the sea is faint. On the desolate and broad coast, the ancient small pyramid temple stands for thousands of years, telling the vicissitudes and silence of history. However, at this moment, the long silence was broken by the shouts of the warriors on both sides.
Two hundred warriors of the kingdom, wearing armor, spears and bows, faced off against more than six hundred Mayan elite warriors. The grey earth noble Puap’s eyes were red as he stared at the serpent god, Prince Hutur, who was holding a shield a few hundred steps away.
The prince of the Xiu family, Hutur, looked solemnly at Thomas, the priest of the chief **** who rushed to the front. And a few steps away, is the Nawa translator of the Shiu clan, the remnant of the Toltec people, Ustow.
“Lord Nava, Prince Maya, greetings! Trade gems, don’t fight!…”
Ustow, the Nava translator, wore the robes of a commoner, raised his hands high, and shouted to the priest opposite him while shivering. He recognized the other person’s attire at a glance, wearing a high feather crown, wearing a robe with a divine pattern, and a divine amulet around his neck. He was the high-ranking highland priest in the ancestral stories.
“Honored priest! We, deal, gems!”
“Um?”
Priest Tomat pricked up his ears, trying to discern the other’s language. This Nahua language seems to incorporate many Mayan phonetic words, is very difficult to identify, and is very different from the Nahua languages of the various parts of the plateau, even more than the difference between Mexica and Prepecha. Of course, there is also another possibility, the orthodox ancient Toltec language is spoken on the opposite side.
“The Lord God bless us! We are an exploration fleet from the Mexica Union, the Kingdom of the Lake! Under the guidance of the Lord God, we sailed all the way to the East China Sea to the remote Snake Island! We have no hostility and accept a fair gem trade. ..which Mayan city-state army are you?”
“Uh?…is this…is this Toltec?”
Hearing the reply from the highland priest, Nava translator Usto was stunned in place. He tried hard to discern the other party’s words, racked his brains to complete it, and then turned around and shouted to Prince Hutur, who was dozens of steps away.
“His Royal Highness! They are a fleet from… the big tribe of the prickly pear and the small tribe of the big lake! Under the guidance of the **** of wealth, they went to the sea to the east, looking for the serpentine island… they have A little hostility. They have a gem trade. They ask us, where are they from?”
“…Um?”
Hutur frowned, a puzzled look on his face. Holding his shield, he walked forward with the guards and came to the opposite side of Priest Tommat. He looked at Thomas, who was dressed as a pagan priest, holding scriptures, and carrying a copper axe, and nodded slightly. After a while, his eyes fell on the Mayan merchant Tikalo, who hurriedly arrived beside Priest Tommat.
“Huh! This familiar dress? This is…”
Hutuer’s eyes froze, and his expression suddenly stagnates. The Mayan merchant on the opposite side had no divine tattoos, no nose ornaments and teeth that symbolized his identity, and he was obviously an ordinary commoner. However, a humble commoner wears the classical robes of the Mayan nobles. The “big” snake pattern on the robe gave him a very familiar impression, but he couldn’t remember it for a while.
“Blessed by the Lord! Respected Mayan leader, greetings to you! Thanks for the guidance of the gods, let us meet. I am the priest of the Lord God from the Kingdom of the Lake, Thomas!”
Priest Thomas observed his words and expressions, and saw that the other party’s translation was unreliable. He stretched out his hand, patted Ticarlo on the shoulder, and asked the Mayan merchant to translate for him.
“Which city-state are you from? Why did you come with so many warriors?”
The Mayan merchant Tikalo lowered his head and translated in a deep voice. He used his words cautiously, only daring to be a little confused in some details. On the opposite side, Ustow stuttered, doing the same translation with the lake.
“Father Bless! Greetings to you, Nava priest from the Western Highlands. I’m a descendant of the Serpent Father God, Hutur!”
Hutur put down the shield in his left hand, raised his head, and met the highland priests in the west with the proud gesture of a Mayan goddess. He looked directly into the eyes of Priest Tommat and said loudly.
“I am also a messenger of the incarnation of virtue, coming to the coast of the north. I have the will of God the Father to trade a large number of gems with the fleet of your God of Wealth!”
“Um?”
Hearing Tikaro’s slightly revised and carefully relayed translation, Priest Tomat frowned. The other party’s attitude is arrogant, the tone is very loud, and he does not answer where he is from, he speaks arrogantly, and wants to change the gem of the fleet. He looked around for a while, only to see hundreds of Mayan warriors on the opposite side, but not the goods used for trade, and his heart suddenly grew vigilant.
“The Lord God bears witness! We shoulder the will of the Lord God and tell the prophecies of the prophets. We also accept the trade of precious stones, but we just need fairness!…Respected Mayan gods, may I ask, where are the goods you use for trade now? ?”
“Fair trade, traded goods?…”
Hearing the question of Priest Nawa, Hutu paused for a moment. He really came with hundreds of people and a large amount of goods. It’s just that the rainforest road is difficult, and the villagers are burdened with heavy burdens, and the road is very slow. The Nava fleet was moving very fast again. He was worried about missing the fleet, so he rushed over with more than 600 warriors.
And now, two hundred Xiwu warriors are escorting hundreds of people who are transported, and they are still in the stone carving city dozens of miles behind. When they really arrive at the village, I am afraid it will take another day.
“Nava priest! I came from afar, and the goods I traded are still being transported behind.”
Hutul straightened his ridges and raised his head slightly, revealing his gem-studded teeth, showing the majesty of the gods.
“Evening has come, God the Father will go into the sea, and the mountains and forests will sleep. Guests from the plateau, please rest in the salt village by the sea for a day. By tomorrow morning, our goods will arrive! Look at your respected For the sake of coming from afar, by the will of God, the price of the transaction at that time will never treat you badly!”
After saying this, Hutur raised his chin and looked directly at the Nawa priest, waiting for his thanks. In his capacity as the prince of the Xiu family, it is not easy to say such gentle words, and it is even more kind than when facing the vassal Weiyu family.
“Father repeatedly warned me not to be too domineering. Well, when we trade tomorrow, let’s give more rewards to these fleets!”
“Evening is coming, the sun sets, and the forests that leave will die! Small tribes from the plateau, you must rest in the village of Wei by the sea for a day. Our goods will not arrive until tomorrow! You worship the Heavenly Snake Father. God, come from afar to see me, I will reward you for tomorrow’s transaction!”
Hearing Tikalo’s translation, Priest Tommat frowned deeply. He lowered his face, looked directly at the face of the other “god”, and answered in a deep voice.
“Respected Mayan gods! We are from the mighty lake kingdom and will not accept your threats! If you are willing to listen to the divine revelation of the Lord God, the fleet can give you ten bags of lake gems. But we will not be in the seaside village of the tail. , stay for a day and wait for what you call cargo! . . . At most, we’ll rest a night on the ship.”
Not long ago, the kingdom’s fleet, outside the salt village of the Kanur clan, encountered a large group of malicious city-state warriors. If they really accepted the invitation at that time and went ashore to rest, they would probably be eaten up by the Mayan warriors who kept coming.
On this coast, far from the influence of the Mexica Union, and with the enviable wealth in the fleet, no matter how careful it is, it is not too much. Who knows if we will see the sun the next day after we land on the shore!
However, there was still some room for relaxation in the words of Priest Tommat. As for these leeway, whether the words conveyed by the two translators can be known by Prince Hutur is unknown.
“What! You don’t want to wait?! Give me ten bags of gems? Are you rewarding the gods of the serpent?!… Priest Nawa, I gave you kindness, don’t be ignorant!”
Sure enough, Hutur was furious when he heard the words. He raised his right hand and made a forward gesture. Following this action, hundreds of elite Xiu warriors raised their weapons in unison and came behind the leader, shouting and threatening.
Seeing this scene, Priest Tomat suddenly became alert. He pulled Tikalo and retreated dozens of steps in a row to distance himself from the opponent. The gray warrior Puapu, holding his longbow tightly, rushed to the side of Priest Tomat, shouting excitedly.
“All Worlds”
“Testimony of the Lord God! These Mayans are full of malice, fierce and rebellious! Priest Tomat, let me take the warriors and defeat them in one fell swoop!”
“…No! Puapu, there are so many people on the other side, let’s not stay too long, and don’t take the initiative to attack! The fleet’s supply is almost complete, and now it’s better to withdraw to the ship as soon as possible and leave the coast quickly!”
Priest Tomat’s eyes were tight, staring at the leader of the other party. He saw that Huo Tul was only a deterrent, and he had not yet made up his mind to attack. The safest plan at the moment was to withdraw immediately.
“The warriors on both sides are facing each other, and the distance is only a hundred paces! How can they retreat safely at this time?”
Ash Earth Puap shook his head and retorted. He summoned the two sharpshooters beside him, the mountain bird and the toad, and whispered.
“Get ready and aim at the leader of the gods on the opposite side! If you start a fight later, no matter what else, shoot the leader with the feathers to death!”
“Listen to you, Captain!”
Mountain bird Cavado and Toad Kexi nodded and saluted at the same time. They held long bows, took out copper arrows and held them in their hands, and even their breaths became long.
The sun slanted westward, pulling out slender shadows. The warriors of the kingdom held long bows in the front row, and raised their bronze spears in the back row. The Mayan warriors raised darts in the front row and stone spears in the back row. The two sides lined up to confront each other like this, and the battle seemed to be about to break out.
“Damn!…”
Hutuer frowned, his heart was full of anger, and he wanted to order an attack. But he recalled that before leaving, his father Huo Pan’s Chun Chun asked him to suppress his anger abruptly. The prince lowered his head and ordered a few words. Nava translator Ustor stepped forward again, facing the dense bow and arrows, shouting tremblingly.
“Respected Nava leader! Respected serpent god, Prince Hutul, willing to make concessions! Please don’t leave! You can rest assured on the ship, we have no hostility. Wait until tomorrow…”
“Guck cluck! cluck cluck!…”
The crisp and melodious partridge call suddenly sounded again in the jungle in the southeast, but it was much closer. Hearing the cry, Tikalo’s eyes suddenly lit up. Without hesitation, without giving Nava translator a chance to speak, he took out a short bone whistle from his pocket and put it in his mouth and blew it hard.
“Gududu! Gududu!…”
A harsh whistle suddenly sounded in front of the army, and spread mournfully into the distance. The eyes of both sides looked at the same time, looking at the Mayan businessman in Chinese clothes.
Priest Tommat was the closest to the Ash Warrior, covering his ears subconsciously, showing surprise.
“Tikalo! What are you doing…”
“Blessed by the **** of snakes! Revenge for the royal family of Cocom, and avenge the undead of Mayapan!…”
In an instant, shouts full of hatred exploded in the jungle in the southeast! Hundreds of Mayan tribal warriors without armor and crude weapons suddenly appeared and appeared behind the Shiu family. They shouted the slogan of revenge, desperately launched a desperate raid!
“Flanking from back and forth! Don’t let the cunning snake of the Xiu family escape and ascend to heaven!”
“Kekum royal family, revenge? Flanking?!”
Hearing the shouts behind him, Hutur turned around and looked at the attacking Mayan tribe. He widened his eyes and saw that the dozens of warriors in the lead were all wearing tattered battle clothes. And on those battle clothes, a “big” snake pattern is being painted.
“This is it! This is it! … Cocom’s family crest, the remnants of Mayapan!”
Hutur’s thoughts turned, and he finally remembered this taboo symbol that had disappeared for decades and was completely erased by the family. He turned his head again and saw Tikalo blowing a bone whistle, and suddenly realized.
“Damn! Damn! Damn Nahua! How dare you collude with the remnants of Mayapan!”
Hutuer gritted his teeth, with an undisguised killing intent on his face. For the Xiu family, the remnants of Mayapan who escaped into the jungle are a real blood feud, and there is no room for compromise!
“Blessed by the Serpent God! Heroic warriors of Xiu, give me a split attack! Kill the enemies in front of me! Kill, kill!…”
“Blessed by the snake god, kill the enemy!”
The elite Xiu warriors shouted, and UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com immediately divided into two teams. The rear team of more than 200 people greeted the tribal ambush with crude weapons. And nearly 400 elite warriors, holding high darts and stone spears, rushed towards the kingdom warriors a hundred paces away.
“Ah! Lord God! This is?!…”
Priest Tomat’s eyes widened, looking at the change in front of him, and stood on the spot for a while. From Tikaro blowing the bone whistle, to the appearance of the ambush behind, to the Mayan warrior on the opposite side, it only took a short while! He instinctively felt something was wrong, so he raised his foot and kicked down Ticarlo, who was laughing wildly. Then, he held up the talisman of the Lord God and hurriedly shouted in the Nahua language.
“Don’t be impulsive! Misunderstanding!…”
“Misunderstanding!”
Ash warrior Puapu was so excited that he couldn’t bear it any longer. With a red neck, he waved his hand and gave a stern order to the warriors of the kingdom who were always ready to fight.
“God bless! Kill the enemy! Shoot! Shoot!…kill!
