Aztec Civilization: Destiny to Conquer America!-Chapter 1621 - 1152: Second
"Yes, Commander!..."
"Boom! Boom!... Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Soon, from the three exploration sailboats, there came the thunderous roar and cannon fire! Three 3-pound stone bullets soared into the sky, landing on the beach, sending up a large cloud of sand. At this distance, the cannons lacked any real accuracy, serving only to create a thunderous sound to intimidate the ignorant natives. According to the consistent experience of the West and Portugal exploration team, the firearms of thunder were invincible. As long as the sound of the cannon and matchlock gun fired, the natives would be terrified and flee in chaotic fear!
"Boom! Boom!... Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The cannons roared for two rounds from afar, and indeed, the native spearmen on the shore fell into chaos. In the contemptuous smile at the corner of Columbus's mouth, the able-bodied natives shouted in confusion and panic, retreating disorderly into the village, causing the painstakingly formed spear formation to scatter instantly.
But moments later, with the shout of "Vizilopo," these militias who collapsed without a fight were reorganized! They reformed in front of the village's fence, the gleaming spearheads facing the large ship. Among them, at least one-fifth were gray-black iron spears!
"Boom! Boom!... Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Another round of intimidating cannon fire, but the effect on the natives' morale was weakening. Moments later, the native spear formation suddenly parted, and several priest apprentices wearing feather headdresses carried a shiny golden copper tube from the village center to the shore. Then, the fanatic Taino followers dropped the prepared sandbags and set the copper tube on them, aiming at the large ship by the sea.
"Boom!..."
In Columbus's frozen smile, in the royal steward's astonished gaze, the golden copper tube suddenly ignited, aiming at the Castilian Fleet on the shore, releasing the first resounding thunder! Without a doubt, the one-pound stone bullet it spewed, and the rising pungent gunpowder smoke, demonstrated the force of the native army... This was actually a native cannon!!...
"Merciful Almighty! How could this be?! These ignorant natives actually... they actually have cannons!..." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
From several hundred meters away, the shore's copper cannon was as ineffective as the ship's cannons. But this native "thunder," to the morale of the Castilian sailors, was more crushing than thousands of bows and arrows and long spears! At this moment, their superior, confident, and invulnerable mental advantage, like the easy-to-break silver mirrors of the Venetians, was suddenly shattered by the booming stone bullets!
"Holy Mother! The natives' cannon!... Ah! This must... must be the powerful Japan Kingdom mentioned by Marco Polo!..."
"What to do? What to do?! They are not afraid of cannons and matchlock guns! They are not afraid of our firearms!..."
"Ah! Almighty! They are shouting and boarding the small boats! There are more and more of them!... They actually want to, want to attack us actively!..."
"Chief Divine protect us! He descends the light of the Divine Realm, utters the thunderous roar, guarding His faithful followers and citizens! He says: Do not fear, do not retreat! The spirits of warriors who die for the Divine War will ascend to the red Divine Kingdom! ... As long as you kill an Evil Demon, you will immediately be noticed by the Chief Divine, ascend to heaven after death! Forever enjoy the beautiful!... "
In the tense and panicked gaze of the Castilians, the Preaching Priest Yao Yu jumped into a frenzied sacrificial dance, shouting the will and divine decree of the Chief Divine! Then, he suddenly raised the Divine Staff, pointed toward the three sea ships on the shore, and shouted vehemently.
"Roar! Chief Divine protect us! Board the small boats, attack the Evil Demon's large ship, fight for the Chief Divine!... Roar!..."
