Chapter 24: Sun King (7)
The Sun King closed his eyes and raised his head toward the sky. After a silence, he said:
"This offensive plan... sounds quite incredible."
Ella felt sweat oozing from her palm. The long-serpentine deployment of the Sun King is indeed very obvious. Could it be that this is a trap set by the Sun King? She did not mention the long-serpentine formation, but mentioned the fantasy combat plan she had come up with, but was actually already trapped?
"But, this time the enemy was originally a group of incredible people. It's not surprising that this plan would be used."
The Sun King nodded on his own. When he opened his eyes, the previous viciousness was gone in his eyes.
"You are a smart person. The person you are looking for is not as smart as you. I like you more than him."
"So…?" Ella asked cautiously, "have you seen him?"
"Who have you seen? The lord of the state of Wakostipek or the lord of the state of Kaunawark? Both of these city-states are not far from Tenochtitlan. As the Sun King, of course I have seen it a long time ago. No matter which one is, it is just a waste without any ability. And you are very interested in me."
The Sun Dynasty took a big step forward and was closer to Ella.
"Tell me, who are you looking for? Is it one of those two I expected?"
As soon as the Sun King's voice fell, a sound suddenly came from the tent:
"Report to the Sun King! We caught the invaders in your big tent!"
Ella's expression was tense, and she was concentrating on responding to the Sun King's questioning. The sudden sound was like a sudden gong and drum that suddenly sounded in the middle of the night, which made his body shake violently, and his heart jumped up as if he was beating. Following the sound, she saw a person, the lord of the Warkostipek, who was being held left and right by two Aztlan soldiers and walked out of the Sun King's tent.
The lord of the Vakostipek was relatively short, about the same height as Ella. He walked with fear and his eyes were full of fear. He was wearing cotton clothes and could not tell that he was carrying a weapon on his body. No matter how he looked, he didn't look like a person who could sneak into the Sun King's tent.
The Sun King turned his head and smiled meaningfully at Ella: "Is this the person you are looking for? It seems that my guess is indeed correct."
"Too...Sun King! I didn't invade!"
The lord of the Vakostipek was already scared and out of his mind. He could not break free from the escort of the two Aztlan soldiers, and could only defend himself in a trembling voice:
"I came in from the gate! I have informed me that I want to see you, and then I have been waiting for you to come back in your tent! They suddenly broke in... and said I was the invader!"
"Is that?" The Sun King looked at the two soldiers guarding the gate, "Did he come in through the gate?"
"Report to the Sun King!" the two Aztlan soldiers stood up and replied, "I haven't seen anyone come in!"
"No, I...you see clearly, is it me?" The lord of the Vakostipek was so anxious that he was about to cry. "Didn't I just walk in front of you? Take a closer look? I gave each of you a few cocoa beans!"
"Shut up." The Sun King glared at Wakostipek with a stern look, "Are you trying to say that the leopard warrior I trust most accepted your bribe?"
"It's not a bribe! It's just a little bit of heart, I... I came in openly!"
"I've already said during the day that I hate being disturbed during rest. Are you here to assassinate me or to make me unhappy?"
"No, I...I..."
The lord of the Vakostipek state became more and more panicked. He glanced at the side and saw Ella suddenly awakening, and waved his head in the direction of Ella: "I'm here to report it! Someone wants to rebel, this is this..."
Ella's heart tightened, but the Sun King suddenly shouted at the lord:
"Bad! I kept silent. Are you disobeying my orders?"
The Sun King waved his hand and the two Aztlan soldiers who were escorting the Lord of Warkostipek immediately let go. The Lord of Warkostipek suddenly got free. Before he could react, he saw the Sun King throwing his cloak on his body, twisting his neck, and pinching his finger bones.
Realizing what the Sun King was going to do, the Lord of Warkostipek's state had deep fear in his eyes. He stepped back and shouted in panic:
"No...you can't do this. I came in from the main entrance and reported it. You are murdering... If you touch me, Vakostipek will not spare you..."
Before the last word "you" was said, the Sun King suddenly flashed in front of him from five steps away and punched him hard in the abdomen. The air made a loud noise like a drum beat. Amid the bitter scream, the Lord of Warkostipek's stomach was broken into a hole, and the intestines inside were squeezed into minced meat, mixed with blood and splashed out, spreading all over the ground. His body also flew a hundred meters away under this punch, and dozens of tents along the way collapsed together.
There was a shallow trace on the mud, which was the mark left by the Sun King's fist wind on the ground.
This sudden change made Ella stunned.
The Sun King twisted his neck a few times, took the cloak handed over by the soldier, and put it back on his body.
"You know, I never want to hear anyone wanting to rebel."
He wiped his hands with the cotton cloth handed by the soldier, and said to Ella:
"I don't know how many people will be snatched by them. I can't kill all those people. As long as they are still clear-headed and can clearly recognize the gap in strength and have not yet taken the last step, it is valuable to me and can be used by people. However, there is also a gap between people. I like smart people, you are smarter than him, so he dies, and you are still alive."
This is no longer a hint. The Sun King was almost telling Ella directly: he knew Tessosomok had the intention to rebel, but he didn't mind.
Standing in front of such a sun king, Ella felt almost breathless.
"Why is this also a lord of a city-state?" she asked, "What are you going to do?"
"I have never seen him and his city-state. Let the Vakostipek change to Tratoani again. If they want to rebel, they can have tens of thousands of hearts."
In the distance, the soldiers of Aztland walked over with a bright red heart, which was dug from the chest of the lord of the Warkostipek.
"Your understanding of the enemy will be of great use in this war. Take a few days off here and then go with me with Tessosomok."
