A hand gently pushed the black queen forward, and the white king on the opposite side had no way out.
It was the chief of the Yanoma tribe who was in charge of the white son, and when he looked at the king who was under siege, he laughed: "I remember it again, the king can only go one square at a time, and the queen can go on a rampage." Young man, this war chess you invented is quite interesting. It's just that people are old and can't remember so many twists and turns. β
It was George who played against him, and when he heard the old chief admit defeat, he laughed and said, "This set of chess has a special way of playing, and if you can improve to this level in two or three days, you will definitely be an excellent chess player in the future." β
Chief Rosenthal sighed, "Now we are prisoners, so we have to play chess to pass the time." β
"That's fine, let go of so many worries, have a good rest, and have to be busy in the future. β
Three days ago, a secret coup d'Γ©tat suddenly took place within the Shenma Alliance.
The Shenma Alliance is a tribal alliance established by the Cult of the Dark God as an intermediary, formed by the two tribes of the Divine Citadel and Yanoma.
Among the two tribes, the Divine Citadel is relatively strong, with more than 6,000 people, and Yanoma has a small number, only more than 1,000. So the first leader of the alliance was naturally the chief of the Divine Citadel.
After the establishment of the Shenma Alliance, several nearby tribes took the initiative to join, but there were exceptions, and the Okdawil tribe fell to the northern power Atlas and pushed Atlas south. As a result, the newly established Shenma Alliance faced a direct threat from Atlas. Atlas crossed the Thundering River and seized the Loop, attempting to move south down the river and defeat his opponents in one fell swoop.
The first wave arrived with the Hundred Nations Alliance servant army, which nominally belonged to Atlas, and the Shenma Alliance took advantage of its local combat advantages to lure the enemy deeper, using the new equipment and tactics provided by the Cult of the Dark God, and won three battles and three victories;
There was a strong enemy in front of them, a fire broke out in the backyard, and the servant army of the Hundred Nations Alliance was so anxious and miserable that they had no choice but to abandon the Hetao area, and the whole army retreated to the north bank of the Thundering River, and stationed with the Okdawil tribe who were familiar with the terrain.
In the first round, the Shenma Alliance won a big victory! The reputation of the alliance leader Hall Addison was unmatched for a while.
But to everyone's surprise, only three days after the victory, he secretly staged a coup d'Γ©tat, imprisoned his allies, Rosenthal, the chief of the Yanoma tribe, and George, the messenger of the Cult of the Dark God, and announced that the two were too sick to serve, and seized the control of the alliance and the religious affairs of the Dark God in their hands.
One by one, Rosenthal put the chess pieces into the chess box: "How can Hall Addison do such a stupid thing that the relatives and the enemies are quick to do?
"He didn't believe we could win from the beginning, he fought with the idea of surrender. β
"But, Old Hall has been fighting fiercely in the past few times! Why don't you just go over?"
George smiled slightly: "I want to sell it for a good price." β
With a few crisp applause, Hall Addison, under the protection of a group of loyal guards, walked slowly: "The young man really has a unique vision. At a glance, I saw through my thoughts, and let's talk about what it means to 'sell for a good price'. β
George said eloquently: "It's obvious. If Atlas is a swamp crocodile, the Shenma Alliance is just an ordinary little spider. The difference in strength is too big, if you continue to fight, you will be defeated sooner or later, and it is better to surrender. β
"Oh, how can I explain that I killed and wounded many Atlas troops and knocked them out of the fire?"
"Since you want to sell yourself to the world, you have to show your worth, otherwise, the best outcome is not to go to Atlas and become a rich man. Besides, the vast majority of people in this wave are people from the Hundred Nations Alliance, and no matter how many deaths there are, Atlas will not frown. β
At this point, George paused and added, "As far as Atlas is concerned, they don't expect to occupy much land, and most of their energy is focused on priests and warriors fighting each other. The Thundering River Valley is half the size of Atlas, and with such a large undeveloped wilderness, Atlas has no other way than to keep you stationed. At that time, you will not only fulfill your dream of being the king of the earth, but also hug Atlas's thigh, killing two birds with one stone. So, like Chief O'Connor of the Okdaville tribe, you have the same idea as being a self-respecting earth king. However, you are stronger, and it is easier for you to be favored by Atlas. β
Hall Addison sighed, "Young man, how good it would be if you were my subordinate!"
George laughed, "Then you'll not be able to sleep all night." β
Hall Addison laughed: "That's right! A sinister and cunning guy like you won't be at ease!"
"So I choose honest and reliable people with good hearts, although they are a little tired, at the very least, they will not stab me in the back. And as a result, you have all seen it, the feud between the Divine Citadel and Yanoma is gone, the Shenma Alliance is thriving, the next step is to recreate the glory of Tenotiran, and finally merge with Atlas to unify the southern jungle, Tenotiran with the Cult of the Dark God as the state religion will comprehensively crush the old rival Dorand in the north in terms of technology, and only wait for twenty years later, make up for the two shortcomings of population and jungle development, and then you can embark on the road to hegemony in the unified continent. β
"It's a beautiful picture," Hale Addison exclaimed, "Twenty years, I think, if I try hard, I can still see it." But young people, and my old fellow Rosenthal, whether it's the Shenma League, or the future Tenotiran, all you need is one voice, and I'll leave a place in the history books for you two. β
George couldn't help but laugh: "Sounds like you think you have a chance to win this coup? If it weren't for politeness, I would have laughed." β
Hall Addison and Rosenthal were both surprised.
This young man named George is unfathomable, a guy who takes one step and sees three steps, he has been in prison for three whole days, but he can't see any tension at all, does he really arrange something to do back?
Hall Addison said with a gloomy face: "Don't talk big! Your men have already left in two teams, and you have drunk the medicine I took in the wine, and your current mana can only be used as a few pawns! Or do you expect Yanoma's men to come and save you?"
George said slowly, "That's impossible. The tribal structure of Yanoma is traditionally straight-up, once the chief is taken, the elders below are not subordinate to each other, and it is difficult to act in unison in a short period of time, and the chief's son is on a mission outside...... The timing of your attack is perfect, and Yanoma's side can't afford to make big waves. β
"And where did you get this lack of confidence? Could it be that you have taken refuge in Atlas too?"
George finally couldn't help laughing: "Your imagination is a miracle! Let me tell you clearly, if you use your position as the leader of the alliance to expand your influence little by little and fully cooperate with the Dark God Cult, maybe you will have the opportunity to serve as the high priest of the Dark God Cult in the future. β
"Hmph, did you mean that the two squads sent out turned back halfway?"
"That's impossible, they have their tasks. I admit that you put a lot of thought into me, but you missed one. β
"Who?"
George smiled and picked up the black queen from the chess box: "That's her, the strongest combat force of the Dark God Cult at the moment. A terrifying presence that integrates warriors, assassins, and mages, and characters who are on a rampage on the chessboard. β
