When Field Marshal Walter received a reply from the Norman Emperor, it was already the following year, in February 1015. This reply, and the one that came with it, totaled a thousand Norman officials. It can be regarded as solving General Walter's urgent need.

The emperor's reply was not very polite. It's very simple, and it's very tough. He did not want Marshal Walter to re-establish a state in the New World. Egil didn't want a piece of reading awareness. Eventually, they will break away from their colony. He wanted the Empire's new, overseas provinces on the American continent.

This time, the emperor named all the territories conquered by Marshal Walter as the province of the Central American Isthmus. Dominates the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the junction of North and South America. and appointed new governors, as well as a number of talents and other officials and subordinate officials who could serve as county governors, mayors, and other officials. These thousands. Under the guarantee of strong force. Sufficient to undertake the administrative tasks of the territories captured by Field Marshal Walter.

At the same time, the emperor also accused Marshal Walter of mistakes in his letter. A certain degree of accommodation for the Aztecs was indeed correct. But in the long run. Such a compromise was in fact detrimental to the rule that the empire carried out here. The emperor asked Marshal Walter to increase pressure on the Aztecs. I want them to convert to the Catholic faith sooner. Faster acceptance of the Norman culture and way of life. Immerse yourself in Norman life.

And in terms of specific implementation. The emperor mentioned Marshal Walter. When the Aztec army was formed, it was only the performance of the converted Aztecs. Claim that this is a very good means. inequality tilts the scales. Let the converted Aztecs reap greater benefits. And there are certain restrictions on non-Catholics. Such a measure would be of great help.

Egil made a few specific points in his mind. For example, restricting non-Christians from becoming officials. Restrict them from buying and selling their land. Restrict them from doing business. Restricting their access to military merit. And so on and so forth...... And more importantly, to raise their tax rate! to levy a poll tax on all non-Christians. Until they are willing to convert!

Of course, the emperor also knew. Such a measure may have a big backlash. There may even be a riot - no, not possibly, but definitely. It seems that it was written with great emotion that the emperor realized the problem. Marshal Walter was shocked to read this letter, and then he looked down, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

This policy could only be implemented after the complete conquest of the Aztec Empire.

In addition to these tough measures. Egil had another means of cultural aggression. Along with the fleet, there were also a large number of Norman scholars and teachers. They will open an academy in Central America. Impart knowledge. At the same time, the language and writing of the Norman Empire will be informed. There is also the history of Europa taught to the Aztecs. Especially the little Aztec children.

At the same time, Egil promised to speed up the transport of migrants to Central America. Of course, there won't be too much. After all, the empire had to open up the Siberian region that was more important to the empire at the same time. The vast and sparsely populated land also requires a large number of immigrants.

The source of immigrants to the empire. One of the largest was the slaves who were bought through legal reform. and some of them could not afford to pay for their own ransom, so they had to participate in the emigration in exchange for free serfs. However, in fact, the empire itself, in tens of millions of square kilometers of Europa, has a population of less than 100 million. Saturation is far from being reached. Therefore, the manpower needed to colonize Central America could not be supplied entirely by Europa immigrants.

"Spread your hands. So the slave trade, the slave trade. "At that time, after thinking about this problem and then coming up with a solution. What a triumphant Norman Emperor was. Although in the previous world historical account. For the slave trade, the left one is evil, and the right one is inhumane. But what does Egil do? A bad profession with pus on his head and sores on the soles of his feet—he is the emperor! All the emperors in the world are going to do bad things! The bigger he does, the more successful the emperor is.

Egil was not ashamed of the idea, but proud. And soon began to calculate: "Shipped goods from Europa to Black Africa." Captured slaves and went to the New World. Then return to Europa with the products of the New World. How much more than 300 percent of the profits generated by such triangular trade? Even the head-killing business has been done!

With such a good deal, as the emperor, he must be involved and take the lion's share. At the same time, it is necessary to promote this form of trade to merchants. to speed up the transportation of black slaves to the New World of America. Sufficient human resources were supplied to the colonies. ”

With this in mind, Egil was able to connect with Aurora through a psychic connection. Then he told her about his plan. After a conversation of mockery, sarcasm, and words within words. This is a national policy that can lead to changes in the world pattern. It was thus formulated by Emperor Egil.

In this way, there is manpower. The structure of the New World colonies is also there. The Emperor demanded that General Walter let go of his hands and feet. Pacify the whole of Central America as quickly as possible. Subsequently, the emperor was to establish two or three new provinces there.

General Walter complied with it very obediently. He handed over all the possessions he had run for more than a year to the governors and officials appointed by the Norman Emperor. Then he took his army, as well as the Aztec army. An attack was launched towards the Aztec Empire to the north.

At this time. Almost all the cities in the northern Aztec were occupied by the Chichimecs and Apaches. The remnants of the Aztecs cowered in the city of Tenochtilan. Faced with more than a dozen times their size, the natives of North America were helpless.

Although they destroyed the bridge to the shore and planted a large number of wooden stakes in Lake Descoco to prevent the opposing canoes from approaching the city. And so for a few months. There is nothing to be done about those North American natives. But how to put it, cities that can't be defeated are prone to starvation. Originally, at the beginning, they could still rely on the stock in the city. and at night secretly from the villages around the lake, according to the secret passage to transport grain in.

But soon, the Native Americans discovered the secret. They either threatened or simply slaughtered. Sweep through the villages around Lake Descoco. As a result, Tenochtilan could not get help from the outside.

And so it went on for a few more months, and the city of Tenochtilan was sold out. The Aztecs began to despair.

And the army of Field Marshal Walter. It was at this time that the offensive was launched - in Tenochtilan was about to be breached. The natives of North America are happiest, and the guards are at their lax.

He first sent a small force to infiltrate the chaotic camps of the Native Americans in the dark of night. Then set fire to create chaos. When the natives panicked, they launched a fierce attack, crushing the combined forces of the Apache and Chichimeks.

With the experience of the last time. This time, Marshal Walter made a move with all his might! Be sure to kill and injure the enemy as much as possible at the first opportunity. And a tight encirclement was organized. Make the enemy have no way to escape.

Although such a tactic will make it impossible for the enemy to escape. Therefore, he desperately started the fight of the trapped beast. Inflict greater losses on your own army. But Marshal Walter didn't care. Because the most dangerous places were all Aztec troops. If he dies more, he won't be too heartbroken.

So, eventually. After this battle. Field Marshal Walter killed more than 100,000 Native American troops. And their own casualties also exceeded 20,000. A large number of corpses were thrown into Lake Descoco. Even a lake was silted up. The Normans finally entered Tenochtilan on such a corpse!

After hearing that the natives of North America had been defeated, and that they had received letters of surrender from the Aztecs. Kuytrahuak finally made the decision to surrender - a few days earlier, his uncle Montezuma II had died. He became emperor of the Aztec Empire, which, of course, was now reduced to a dilapidated capital and an embarrassing population of less than 50,000 soldiers and civilians.

If it doesn't surrender, the city won't be able to sustain itself.

In this way, the Normans entered the city. Although some were destroyed. However, the main building of Tenochtilan is still intact. And that Mesoamerican offbeat, with its magnificent palaces, temples and pyramids. It also amazed the Norman soldiers.

Of course, these are not the most important things. The most important thing is gold. An unimaginable amount of gold capable of filling an entire large warehouse. The Aztec Empire fought for hundreds of years, mining the treasures it gained!

These strange Aztecs compare to gold. Obsidian and feathers are more important. Although gold was considered a relatively valuable item in the minds of the Aztecs, they did not treat it as the most common equivalent like the civilizations of Eurasia. Instead, it uses obsidian, a hard and brittle crystal. Therefore. Their gold is stored, but not spent. Just make some trinkets and statues once in a while.

"The wealth of a whole country is all here now. "When General Walter went to the city of Tenochtiran, the warehouse used to store gold, and opened its doors. The light of the sun shining on gold. The Norman officers couldn't help but gasp.

"It's, it's just ......" someone insisted on saying a word to describe this kind of scene. However, it was as if his brain had been short-circuited. It's just stammering, and I can't say a complete sentence......
