Hearing that the Emperor Montezuma II in the city actually closed his door to a group of traversers who represented the advanced productive forces and advanced civilizations, everyone was furious for a while!

“…… I have long said that there is no need to be so polite to this faint king who treats the Spaniards as the god of Quetzalcoatl! ”

Captain Cai Rong banged on the table with his small fist, his little face with snot, red from anger and cold, "...... Why did Cortés come with hundreds of white people, and the emperor was busy giving gold and gifts, serving them as the god Quetzalcoatl, and Zuihou even let them take the country. And what about our turn? There is only such a fluttering sentence, and then you won't even let the door in?! Why?! ”

“…… yes, yes! Since this faint man is so arrogant and rude and doesn't take us seriously, then we should naturally give him a little color to see-who wouldn't pretend to be a ghost?! I'm the most proficient at the style of the god stick stream! ”

Senior Sister Ma Tong, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, also coaxed, "...... Aren't Spaniards just white-skinned? What's the big deal? I'm going to buy some of the finest body paint and make sure it's whiter than snowflakes! Add a silver wig and you can pretend to be a white-haired witch! Zuihou led a large hydrogen balloon with the head of Quetzalcoatl depicted on it, and led Mr. Moon's team of women to an armed parade, setting off firecrackers and heavy metal rock along the way towards the city of Tenochtitlan...... Hmph, I don't believe that bad old man dares to put up a fight against us, the 'Quetzalcoatl'! ”

Regarding this idea of thinking that was extremely out of line, Wang Qiu was almost embarrassed for a while, "...... Hey, in Aztec mythology, Quetzalcoatl seems to have fled to the Atlantic Ocean in the east, right? The arrival of the Spaniards from the Gulf of Mexico coincides with the legend of the return of Quetzalcoatl. But we came from the Pacific Ocean to the west, and the direction was already reversed...... Will the Aztecs recognize you as the embodiment of Quetzalcoatl? ”

In addition to this, there is also a crucial mistake, which is your gender ...... Of course, Wang Qiu was very sensible and did not say it directly.

However, Wang Qiu found that he seemed to underestimate the degree of this senior sister's thinking and imagination like a wild dog.

“…… Oh hehehe! What does it matter if it's from the west? As long as it is said that Quetzalcoatl has circled the earth, isn't it no problem?! ”

Senior Sister Ma Tong waved her hand contemptuously, and at that moment she was really imposing, as if the queen possessed her, "...... Hum! Do you dare to believe that I am the white snake of the wind who has returned to the world? If you don't believe me, I'll buy a blower to scare them to death, and the fools who dare to disobey Quetzalcoatl will be put to death!

Hehe! Later generations of Mexican barbarians will surely record: the moment of the return of the great Quetzalcoatl, countless people worshipped religiously! Praise the greatest Quetzalcoatl, the greatest Quetzalcoatl, whose divine power is infinite and whose majesty is like a sea and a mountain!

He can make the earth blow a violent storm (blower) with a gentle wave of his hand, He can expel all hateful darkness (searchlight) with the opening of his eyes, He can light the fire that burns the forest with the flick of his fingers (gasoline + sprayer + lighter), He can summon countless evil spirits from hell (the high-decibel horn of the propaganda vehicle), and His gift can make the crops grow more vigorously (fertilizer). Yes! He is the returned Quetzalcoatl, the great Quizlkoatl, the supreme creator of all mankind......"

Oh my God! Who will stop this delusional woman who is more and more unscored, and the more she speaks, the more violent she becomes?

Wang Qiu rolled his eyes, and did not pay attention to the two ladies who were obviously immersed in fantasy, but together with Wen Desi and Professor Yang, he sorted out all kinds of news that Elder La Poza had found in the city, trying to analyze the origin of the current strange situation of the Aztec Empire, and the truth behind Montezuma II's repeated stupid tricks when dealing with the Spaniards in the future, until the country was ruined. …,

————————————————————————

Recently, when reading some ancient American history books, Wang Qiu always couldn't help but sigh deeply, how easy and smooth the sudden rise of the Spanish Empire in the 16th century was, it can be said that it is like God's blessing!

In the process of conquering the Americas, the king of Spain did not launch a large army and labor expedition at all, but only let a small group of very amateur adventurers carry out an expedition in the Americas at their own expense, and successively wiped out the two major civilizations of Aztec and Incas, conquered 20 million square kilometers of vast land for Spain, and established the most extensive empire at that time! The ease with which it expanded its territory and the abundance of war dividends made many great conquerors throughout the ages, such as Genghis Khan, Caesar, Qin Shi Huang and Alexander the Great, all beat their chests with jealousy.

- Lao Tzu mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops and fought bloody battles year after year, and finally won down such a fairly vast territory. And the land that you brought with you a few hundred rabble, and it took only two or three years to conquer easily, is actually more than the harvest of our lifetime!!

Is this a lottery win? It's really unreasonable!!

Among them, the Inca Empire in Peru in the process of its demise, although there are also many coincidental elements, but on the whole, it is logical.

- First, a sudden smallpox took the lives of the old Inca emperor Kabak and a large number of nobles, shaking the foundation of the country's rule. Then, the second prince Atahualpa, who had a heavy army, in order to compete with the new emperor Huascal for the throne, set off a tragic all-out civil war, and each side led hundreds of thousands of troops to fight each other, completely subverting the social order of the entire country, and plunging the whole country into anarchy.

Next, Atahualpa led the rebels to a decisive victory, killing the new emperor Huascal and destroying the central government and all the regular army of the Inca Empire, but before he could occupy the royal capital of Cusco, let alone get the official annexation of the national nobility...... It was at this juncture that the old ruling order had collapsed and the new one had not yet had time to be established, that Pizarro met with Atahualpa in the military camp with more than 180 Spanish warriors, and took advantage of the usurper's carelessness after his victory to kidnap him hostage.

Later, Pizarro killed Atahualpa, so that the Inca Empire, which had already fallen apart, could no longer elect a leader who could resist the invasion in a short period of time. By the time Manco, the new Inca emperor who had been raised by the Spaniards as a puppet, finally grasped some power and had the ability to plan a counterattack, the Spaniards had already initially established their own shili in Peru, and had rushed many reinforcements from the rear, which could no longer be easily shaken. The Inca Empire's military liliang was completely destroyed in the civil war, and finally failed to defeat the invaders led by Pizarro.

However, the process of the Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire was completely like a pie in the sky.

First, the Aztec Empire had not been in a state of devastating civil strife before that, and Montezuma II had been in power for more than a decade. Second, it was not until later in the war that the Aztec Empire experienced a catastrophic outbreak of smallpox plague, which was not affected in any way in the early days.

However, as if trying to kill himself, Montezuma II continued to devise all sorts of fatal tricks during this time—first, sending envoys carrying generous gifts over the mountains to Veracruz to meet Cortés, luring the Spaniards to his own land.

In fact, in Honam. Prior to Cortés' invasion of Mexico, Spanish explorers rarely ventured far from the ocean, let alone abandoned their ships and ventured inland. Had it not been for the abundance of gold from Montezuma, which aroused the greed of the Spaniards and suppressed their fears, Cortés might have sailed away after a few laps around the coast and returned to the Spanish colonies on the islands of Cuba or Jamaica. …,

Next, in order to strengthen the determination of his subordinates, Commander Cortez resolutely burned his own fleet, forcing the team members who had no way back to cross the mountains and deep into the interior to make contact with the Tlaxcala, the old enemies of the Aztec Empire.

Blocked by the Aztecs for too long and unable to communicate with the outside world, the Tlaxcalans initially mistook the Spaniards for allies of the Aztec Empire, and fought a fierce battle with the Spaniards, with heavy casualties on both sides.

However, having figured out their mistake, the Tlaxcalans immediately declared an armistice, allied themselves with Cortés' Spanish expedition and joined forces against the Aztecs. Next, they slaughtered the city-state of Chorula in order to punish the former allied city for betraying the Tlaxcalas and embracing the thick legs of the Aztec Empire.

For some time thereafter, the Tlaxcala army and the Spaniards went on a rampage in the Valley of Mexico. The oppressed tribes around the Lake District were encouraged to see that the Aztecs did not react to this, and they all raised the flag of rebellion one by one.

And what was Montezuma II doing during this time?

He's been busy doing some weird things that are inexplicable and self-defeating.

After learning that the Spaniards had left the coast and were closing in on the hinterland of the Empire, and that they had allied themselves with the Tlaxcalans, apparently hostile to the Empire, Montezuma II had no intention of sending troops to fight it, but instead gathered a number of sorcerers and held a living sacrifice on the pyramids, sacrificing bloody hearts and bones, and cursing the Spaniards for getting lost on the journey to the city of Tenochtitlan (a wish that is absurd enough in itself). While constantly sending Cortés gold and precious stones, begging him to leave Mexico as soon as possible.

As everyone knows, it is precisely because he keeps sending too much gold that Cortez, who was also beating a drum in his heart and wanted to stop several times, completely strengthened his will to continue to march, and under the drive of greed, he was determined to get all the wealth of the Aztec Empire!

Zuihou, the Spaniards have finally arrived outside the gates of Tenochtitlan, and the curses of the Aztec wizards seem to have no effect. In order to pass the buck, the sorcerers told the emperor that the white man's skin was too thick for evil to penetrate, so their curse could not be effective.

As a result, Montezuma II was completely desperate and his mind was completely confused. He first respectfully regarded Cortés as the god of Quetzalcoatl, greeted him into the inn where he received the distinguished guests, and said a lot of groveling words, and lost all the dignity of the country. But then, Montezuma II seemed to regret it again, and secretly sent a small force to attack the port of Veracruz in an attempt to cut off the Spanish rear.

Unfortunately, this military operation was quickly detected by the Tlaxcalans, who urgently informed Cortés in the city of Tenochtitlan. As a result, Cortés immediately made a quick decision, broke into Montezuma II's dormitory with four men, and then kidnapped him like that!!

It wasn't until he was kidnapped by the Spaniards that the faint king, who seemed to be obsessed, more or less regained his senses, but at this time he couldn't help himself, so he had to obey the orders of the Spaniards, burned to death the generals he sent to attack Puerto Veracruz, and connived at the Spaniards to destroy the statues of the gods throughout the city, collect gold, silver and precious stones, and then sat back and watched the Spaniards slaughter 2,000 Aztec nobles in a frenzy!!

Zuihou, in the midst of the unanimous rejection of the Aztecs and the rebellion, Montezuma II was besieged in the palace by the rebels along with the Spaniards, and his head was broken by a stone thrown by the rioters, and then he bled profusely and died on .........the spot.

In short, if there is some truth to the fall of the Inca Empire, then the destruction of the Aztec Empire seems to be completely due to the deliberate death of Montezuma II - if you don't send someone to give so much gold to Cortez, he doesn't even know the way into Mexico, and he may not go deep into the interior of Mexico in order to get gold, maybe he will go around the coast and leave. If you don't invite the Spaniards respectfully, Cortés, who was still very thin at that time, may not be able to enter the city of Tenochtitlan, which has maintained its military strength intact.

The most deplorable thing is that this emperor was actually kidnapped as a hostage by just 5 Spaniards in his palace, under the attendants of countless cronies...... I wonder if the Margani mission, which entered Beijing more than 270 years later, had the ability to break into the Qianqing Palace and kidnap Emperor Qianlong?

Later, Pizarro kidnapped the Inca emperor, or took advantage of the emperor's trip to gather 180 outlaws! Montezuma is too vegetable!

Could it be that he really regarded the Spaniards as gods, and from the very beginning he was eager to give the whole country to the Spaniards with both hands as soon as possible?

But the problem is that, judging by the very contradictory behavior of Emperor Montezuma II on several occasions before and after, and the fierce resistance of the Aztecs to the Spaniards after his death, it does not seem to be the same thing...... Otherwise, why would he secretly send troops to attack the port of Veracruz?

In addition, if it is said that the Aztecs mistook the Spaniards for Quetzalcoatl, then it should be the belief of the unification of the whole nation, and the last two emperors succeeded by Weishenme actually disliked the Spaniards so much that they fought to the death with the Spaniards?

In short, the fall of the Aztec Empire was full of all kinds of weirdness and incredibleness.

And Cortez also seems to have a destiny, and he is always able to achieve impossible victories again and again in a desperate situation of ten deaths.

Well, if it's a Xianxia novel, then Cortez may be said to be a person favored by God with "atmospheric luck".

However, through the field investigation in the Valley of Mexico, and the synthesis of what Elder La Pooza saw and heard after entering the city of Tenochtitlan, Wang Qiu, Wen Desi, and Professor Yang finally deduced some of the truths behind this absurd history.

However, the results obtained from this analysis still made them sigh heartily:

“…… The invasion of the Spaniards really picked a wonderful time! They were confronted with a completely paralyzed empire! ”
