Chapter 643: The Battle of God's Wrath
The four cities of the human tribe are Dongwang City, Xiliang City, Baishi City, and Manniu City.
Among the four cities, Baishi and Manniu are named after their tribes, and they are the most fierce in their resistance to the Human King.
The White Lion King was unruly. He killed the previous lord of White Lion City, changed the city's name to White Lion, and established himself as king. His birth determined his resistance to the Human King's rule. The Lord
of Manniu City was dissatisfied with the Human King's obedience to the Alliance, and he was resentful and rebelled.
The Lord of Dongwang City was forced to rebel by the people below. He was the most loyal to the Human King among the four city lords.
The Lord of Xiliang City chased the horse because of his ambition.
His father was the first leader to follow the Human King, and he had the clearest understanding of the history of the Human King's rise.
When Sui Ma was little, his father told him the story of the Human King, hoping that he would become like the Human King.
His father hoped that Sui Ma would be as firm, brave, and strong as the Human King, but Sui Ma understood that his father wanted him to sit in that position.
Ambition grew in his heart since he was a child, and as he went to the Alliance to study, his horizons broadened, and he felt that he could replace the Human King.
Such a great ambition also made Zhu Ma extraordinary. It can be said that among the four city lords, he is the most heroic one.
However, the world is unpredictable. Xiliang City is located in the extreme west, too remote, and because it is close to the desert, the vegetation is not as lush as the other three cities, making his road to rise extremely difficult.
But even so, among the four cities, Xiliang is still second to none in terms of military combat power.
Only the money and food were too little to support his attack, which made him endure bitterly for all these years.
At the same time, he secretly hated that if he was in Dongwang City, the result would be completely different.
He even fantasized about how he would develop and how he would seize the position of the Human King if he was in Dongwang City.
In his fantasy, it was much easier to move from the position of the Lord of Dongwang City to the position of the Human King than starting from the Lord of Xiliang City.
It was not that he wanted to kill the Human King Taicheng to become the Human King, it was not that he did not want to kill the king, but that he did not think he had the strength.
In his mind, the key to ascending the throne of the Human King was to seize the position of his sons and grandsons after the death of the Human King.
This entry point was chosen very well. If he was in Dongwang City, he would have obtained the support of the alliance through trade early on, and it could be said that the success rate was very high.
But things did not go as he wished. He was not in Dongwang City, but in Xiliang City.
Not only did he not get the support of the alliance, but when he was ecstatic because he had learned that the Human King was about to die, the alliance army began to help the Human King sweep across the four cities.
At that moment, he was disheartened.
Trapped, confused, and with no desire to live, countless negative emotions invaded him.
The more he had hoped to become the Human King before, the greater the blow he suffered now.
For a moment, he was almost defeated and even thought about surrendering to the Human King.
But he soon gave up this idea because he knew that the Human King would never let him go.
The Human King's grandson rebelled and was defeated by the Human King. Not only did the Human King not kill him, but he made him the governor of the King's City.
He saw the meaning clearly.
After the death of the Human King, the position should be reserved for this grandson of the king. How could the Human King spare the life of such an ambitious man as himself
? If he were to be stripped of all military power and voluntarily imprisoned in the Human King City, he might still have hope of survival, but would he make such a choice?
Live on your knees or die standing up, he chose the latter almost without hesitation.
Since he chose to die, all the difficulties, confusions and setbacks were nothing.
He began to organize his army and prepare for a desperate battle with the human tribe army and the alliance army.
Life was already suffocating, so it would be better to die more spectacularly.
Just when he was determined to fight to the death, the situation changed again.
The change did not come from the east, but from the west.
The news from the east was the news of the fall of several cities, which was not beyond his expectations.
He had studied in the Alliance and knew something about it. If the Alliance wanted to, it could sweep through the entire tribe without too many casualties.
Zhu Ma had also wondered why the Alliance did not move westward, but later heard that it was because the two totems had a good relationship and that Taichu was not aggressive.
He believed the former, but would never believe the latter.
Knowing something about the history of the Alliance, he could easily see the ambition of the Alliance.
When the Alliance was still the Fire Tribe, it had not developed very fast. All the changes occurred after the Ice Bear Tribe defeated the Dragon Tribe.
Facing the Dragon Tribe defeated by the Ice Bear Tribe, the Taichu Alliance, still called the Fire Tribe, marched south with all its strength.
With the joint efforts of the six and seven chiefs, the Dragon Tribe was defeated in
one fell swoop. Although the Dragon Tribe was driven away, it showed mercy, but its determination to go south was clearly seen by Zhuma. He didn't believe that Taichu had no ambition and aggressiveness, as he dared to use the strength of the entire tribe at that time.
He didn't go west, maybe because the relationship between the two totems was really very good, or there were some other unknown secrets.
These speculations were not verified in the end, but for Zhuma, whose foundation was about to be invaded, these were no longer important.
The invasion did not come from the Alliance Army and the Human King Army, but from the west, a team coming out of the desert.
He really didn't expect that the enemy would come from the west.
Zhu Ma collected news from the east every day. He knew that the three cities had fallen, and that the northern and southern armies of the alliance had come.
He was ready to perish together, but chaos suddenly broke out in Xiliang City.
At first, many people lost things, and then some blond-haired and blue-eyed people started to cause trouble in the city.
These blond-haired, blue-eyed people came from the other side of the desert. They belonged to a tribe called the Mountain of Gods.
They came here a long time ago, but there were few of them at that time, and they would bring some interesting things, so no one paid much attention to them.
Until recently, the number of people began to increase, and after he began to drive away these thieves and city destroyers, a group of armored soldiers and horses simply appeared in the desert, which really shocked Zhu Ma.
This group of soldiers and horses was not small, about 5,000 people, of which more than 2,000 were wearing armor, and the rest were wearing very tattered clothes.
Zhu Ma hurriedly closed the city gates and locked the entire city at the same time. He caught the blond-haired, blue-eyed people and began to interrogate them.
At first, he didn't have much hope, and didn't think he could get any information from these people.
Most of these guys can't even speak the Alliance language well, and most of the communication between the two sides is based on gestures and guesses. It's strange that they can get any results from the interrogation.
As a result, a man he recently promoted, named Manu, pried open the mouths of these guys.
This Manu was noticed by him because Taichu passed by here last time. After the promotion, he took the initiative to ask for the interrogation of these people.
It was also during this interrogation that he learned that Manu knew some of the language of the Mountain of Gods. It is said that he learned it from a person who came here from the Mountain of Gods.
Although it was crude, they were able to communicate and roughly understood the cause of the matter.
Most of these 5,000 people are believers of the god Hermes of the Mountain of Gods. They live together with other believers of gods in a city called "Nameless City".
The reason why they came here without complaint and hardship was because of the oracle issued by Hermes.
He, with a heart full of anger, issued a war of divine wrath to his believers, asking them to gather together and cross the yellow sand to attack the alliance.
Yes, their target was not the human tribe's Xiliang City, nor any city on the prairie, but the Taichu Alliance further east.
But this army composed of merchants, thieves and herdsmen stopped in Xiliang City.
"This is an undefended city."
As spies, the thieves brought such news back to the army.
So, the thieves in the team ignored military discipline, sneaked out, and entered Xiliang City to steal.
This is also the reason why the number of thieves in Xiliang City has increased recently, and those city destroyers are stupid robbers.
After receiving this news, Zhu Ma had a headache. The enemies in the east had not arrived yet, but the enemies in the west had arrived first.
Although these people were very strange, their fighting ability was not bad.
The whole city was locked up, and only a few enemies were caught. Even the thief who looked the weakest among the enemies could beat more than ten people on his side.
According to the information that Ma Nu got from these people, thieves were not a profession with fighting ability. They were just a group of lazy guys.
"Is the Mountain of Gods stronger than the Alliance?"
Standing on the city wall, looking at the military camp in the distance, Zhu Ma seemed to be whispering, and seemed to be asking Ma Nu.
The lazy people were so powerful, which forced Zhu Ma to make such a guess.
Manu listened to Zhuma's murmurs with a bewildered look on his face.
Zhuma glanced at him and then smiled, thinking what could a warrior who emerged from a slave know.
But he didn't know, and Manu was also quite confused.
Because they were spies of the Alliance, they knew more information than ordinary tribesmen during training.
They knew that the Alliance had established diplomatic relations with the fish people in the East China Sea, and they also knew that the Mountain of Gods was split from the tribe that once ruled this continent.
He also knew that the Alliance had set up here to defend against the enemies under the city wall.
He knew all this, but he couldn't figure it out. Are the enemies really that powerful?
Didn't they say that the enemies wouldn't attack before the residual consciousness of the saint disappeared?
His heart was full of doubts, but his face was just a confused expression. From this point of view, he was a qualified spy.
No one could answer Manu's first doubt. After all, the gods of the Mountain of Gods had been here, and the gods' priests had been here, but the tribesmen had never been here.
His second doubt... It was very troublesome for the gods to enter this continent, but it was not troublesome for the tribesmen to enter.
Under normal circumstances, it would not make much sense for the tribesmen to attack this continent, because they could not fight against the gods.
But he was seriously injured and could not recover to his handsome appearance. He could only condescend to the underworld. Hermes, who was bent on revenge, encouraged his believers to start this war.
This was His battle of revenge. Although He knew that this team was doomed to be destroyed, He still issued the oracles persistently, even if it meant sending these slaves of God to their deaths.
