Nova Roma Chapter 175 - Conquering the city of Huexotla

R-18 Chapter: Gore and Sex description
What was one of the most prosperous cities in the kingdom of Teotihuacan is now reduced to a wasteland where adobe houses and some pyramid temples are destroyed by the constant fires that occur in the city.
The only reason why the two armies continue to fight for it is the strategic value it has, Lake Texcoco connects with the salt lake from which the salt consumed in the kingdom is obtained.
Not to mention that in the lakes is the commercial city of Tlatelolco where it has an influx of 6,000 people per day, being an independent commercial city in Teotihuacan is the only way to trade.
That is why the city of Texcoco is so important for the two factions of the Teotihuacan civil war, currently, the city is under the control of the king who 2 weeks ago launched a conquest with which he expelled the religious.
The problem is that in the battle houses and most temples were burned in battle without mentioning that much of the population died in the flames that consumed the city.
The survivors were forced to serve the tlatoani's of the king's army in punishment for joining the religious faction, this meant that women and girls lost their status for what they were used as prostitutes without pay.
While strong men are forced to join without pay as cannon fodder in the king's troops and children were used to carry the valuable War material consisting of obsidian-tipped arrows and bows.
Many of the children died because the obsidian arrows crossed the sack of Hayate where they were so that the children were often cut and those wounds without treatment and living in deplorable conditions began to rot and cause gangrene.
In the best case they died from septicemia in others they had to see how their arms or legs turned black and lost mobility until they died.
The priest's faction was no better, they showed it when they conquered the city of Iztapalapa where the women were sacrificed to the god Huitzilopochtli while the children were killed to turn them into a ceremonial pozole.
While men were castrated to prevent them from reproducing and thereby motivating the idea of ​​the Tlatoanis (Aztec Nobles) to their children, this forced them to have celibacy for the rest of their lives without mentioning that when they were castrated controlling them it was much more simple.
Ten days passed from this and the great army was ready for the conquest of the respective villages to obtain human resources, Hellena and Mario decided to accompany Ascanio in his conquest of the cities of the lake.
For Mario, it has a special meaning because he was born in Mexico City and despite not having grown up in Mexico, he wants to know what the lakes look like before they were drained and Mexico City was built on them.
Ascanio had already prepared his plan of conquest, the army would arrive in the east to conquer the city of Huexotla, Coatlinchan, and Texcoco, with those cities under control he would proceed to take Acolman and later take Teotihuacán.
All these cities belong to the king's faction while the southern cities such as Atenco, Aztahuacan, Iztapalapa, Mexicaltzinco, and Culhuacán are cities belonging to the radical priest's faction.
The reason why this area will be conquered first is because of the great influence on Lake Texcoco, the small cities around the lake on the west side will not want to fight with the empire so they will be annexed almost immediately.
On the road to the city of Texcoco Hellena and Mario could see the large river flows that came together to flow into the lake, it will be a beautiful scene if not for the hundreds of people who were on the road thin and clear malnutrition samples
The empire lacks population so these people were fed and sent in groups of 100 to the city of Monte Alban where they will receive medical attention before being sent to the empire where they will be distributed throughout the 4 current provinces.
As the army progressed, people in a state of near-death due to lack of food were alarming. This caused Ascanio to decide to take a detour and conquer the city of Huexotla to attend to refugees.
The road to Huexotla was not complicated but when he finally reached the periphery of the city he could see that the two factions were fighting a battle on the outskirts of the city.
This Ascanio saw the battle that was unfolding on the outskirts of the city as an advantage and using the cavalry that had been given consisting of 1000 Roman soldiers on horseback prepared a charge against the two fighting armies.
Felix armed himself with a saber and Mario prepared the katana his sister had taken for him, Felix rode with the troops in the rear to participate in the battle.
Ascanio occupied a position in the battlefield and when the war horn sounded the 1000 soldiers on horseback began their cavalcade towards the battle.
Mario while hugging his sister in the ride began to prepare his Katana to kill any enemy who approaches his wife.
The soldiers fighting outside the city of Huexotla felt that the earth was shaking, when they looked towards the horizon they could see Roman soldiers mounted on 4-legged beasts.
The two armies prepared to fight but when the cavalry arrived the cold spears of steel went through the Chimalli (shields in Nahuatl) as if it were paper.
The spears pierced the necks and bodies easily leaving them as a memory of how they died, after using the spears the soldiers drew their sabers to fight the soldiers on the ground.
Having the surprise factor neither of the two armies could defend themselves effectively, in the heat of the battle Felix went into the battle where Mario first used his katana to kill.
The first death he made was only a boy in his 10s with an obsidian dagger charged against Felix, before allowing him to hurt his sister he used his katana to cut off his hand.
The boy shouted but this did not stop him with his other hand he took his hand with the dagger to kill the enemies he had in front, Mario this time I do not doubt and buried his katana in the skull of the child, the eyes of hate of the little boy remained in Mario's mind.
But he didn't have time to think about that, the battle was in process and if he neglected Felix could get hurt, but before he could catch up he felt like the horse fell on the ground.
Without hesitation he took Felix by the waist and jumped back to prevent the horse from crushing them when he looked straight ahead he could see a Teotihuacan soldier with a considerable height and a well-defined body carrying a macuahuitl adorned with jade.
The subject cut the horse's neck so that he fell dead, Mario could feel that fighting him would be complicated but he had no choice.
He took his katana and ran towards the warrior in front of him, the warrior smiled and also charged towards Mario when the katana and the macuahuitl hit the ground around Mario began to crack.
There he realized that the person in front of him was not normal since he had greater strength than a human could have, so using his divine energy he kicked him in the stomach that threw him a few meters while he was spinning.
The warrior in one of the turns regained his fighting position and killed one of the Roman soldiers he carried towards him, taking him by the head and smashing her to the ground where the poor soldier's brain next to his eyes came out of his skull.
The warrior the body of the soldier killed by the foot and occupied him as a weapon to confront Mario, Mario could only watch with horror as the Teotihuacan warrior carried him with a human body as a weapon while in his other hand he had a macuahuitl.
But before he could fight him, a firearm detonation sounded and the Teotihuacan warrior stopped his charge and slowly walked away when another shot rang out.
This time the warrior fell to his knees and Felix approached him who looked at him like shit while pointing the revolver that had red energy coming out of him as if it were a mist.
Once he was close he placed his weapon on the warrior's forehead where she opened fire countless times until the warrior's head was left without half of the skull showing the inside of his head, it was only enough with a kick in the chest for the corpse will fall on the ground
After this Felix looked at him "You are ugly with desire, the next time you intimidate my Mario I will shot you in the eggs fucker."
Mario who could not believe what he had seen approached Felix to see if she was injured, for that he had to touch her, to which Felix blushed "Idiot wait for the night we are on the battlefield."
Mario sighed after being able to see that Felix was safe "Luckily you're fine, but how did you get a revolver in the middle of the zero century."
Felix looked at his gun in his hand "This is a gift from father and mother Hellena, they told me that I will not hesitate to use it to kill any son of a bitch who tried to approach me to hurt me or someone in the family.
I do not like to use it a lot but Dad promised me that when Admés perfected the use of springs he would give me an assault rifle which is a firearm with greater firing ability.
Perfect for her girl to blow brains to any trash who tries to make something with me or family, the advantage is that it works with my divine energy so I don't need to recharge. "
Felix aimed his revolver and killed 10 enemies who were fighting with the cavalry by blowing their heads "It is quite effective."
Mario looked at his sister with some envy but it was only for a moment he grabbed his katana to remember that his weapon had been a gift with love from his sister and when he come back of war they will ask for one revolver to his mom and dad.
The battle continued for some more time until the army entered the city of Huexotla where the flag of Nova Roma was raised in the city's largest temple ...
