Aztec Civilization: Destiny to Conquer America!
Chapter 2003 - 1464: The Wild Men’s Suicidal Flood, Ming Dynasty’s Helpless Sunset
"Warrior more fierce than a tiger! What’s your name?!"
"Haha! I am Maha Agudah, the Great Chief of the River-side Tribe! ... And you, what are your names? ..."
"Ah! So you’re the Great Chief of the Tribe?! It’s fitting, it truly should be this way! Only a warrior as fierce as you is qualified to be the Great Chief of the entire tribe! ..."
On the sandy beach by the river, a thick and long heavy arrow is deeply embedded in the mud, with its tail still trembling. Maha Agudah’s tiger-like force in his arrow shot went over a hundred steps, using heavy arrow! And the position where the heavy arrow fell was only a few steps away from the three chieftains on horseback. This proves that if Maha Agudah had wanted to kill just now, he could have caught any Wild Man Chief off guard and killed them with an arrow!
This superhuman archery made the three Wild Man Chief Jurchens’ faces suddenly change, greatly frightened. They all tightened their reins, eyes fixed on Maha Agudah’s hand, ready to spur their horses away if he raised his bow again. Meanwhile, the cavalry behind them also showed shock, stirring unease.
"Heavenly Divine! Such power must be a heavy bow of Strength of Twelve or more!"
"Witnesses of the ancestors! He’s using heavy arrows! This must surely be a giant bow of Fifteen Strength! Search all through the Wudiha Tribe within hundreds of miles and you won’t find such a tiger-force archer! ..."
"What’s his name? Maha Agudah? ... Sounds like the Great Chief of the river-side fishing tribe! Could he be from the tribe newly southward from Lake Beihai’er? ..."
A moment later, the leading strong chieftain was the first to regain composure. He raised his hands mounted on his horse, signaling an intent for friendly communication, and shouted loudly.
"Great Chief of the Maha Tribe! I am Wuzhe Aguda, the Great Chief of the Forest Tribes! And these two chieftains here ..."
"I am Wuzhe Nu’er Ha! The wild boar in the forest!"
"I am Wuzhe Daimin! The great bird in the forest!"
The three Wild Man chieftains came forward in sequence, proudly shouting their names toward Maha Agudah on the longship. From wild boar to great bird, their names were increasingly ’fierce,’ matching the flags of the three tribes.
This is how it is among the Tungusic Tribes: whether Shengshu Jurchen or Shushu Jurchen, they all love to name themselves after animals and plants of the natural world. And it’s the same for the Native American tribes. From a certain angle of looking, the level of illiteracy, tribal inheritance, and the observation and worship of the natural world, both have much common language...
"Maha Agudah! How come we’ve never heard of such a brave Great Chief like you? Are you from a newly migrated tribe from the distant North, southward bound? You’ve named yourselves after the succulent Mahayu, did you migrate southward from Big Sea? ..."
"Haha, we indeed are a tribe newly southward! My long-deceased father told me that I was born in the dense forests east of Big Sea! At that time, I was carried by my father, riding like the wind for ten days, breaking through the obstacles of those pastoral tribes, to reach Big Sea, and bathe in the water blessed by the Great Divine Spirit!"
"My father prayed to the ancient Great Divine Spirit by Big Sea, bestowing upon me the divine power of bravery. As a response, the sky actually sent down thunderbolt! And I was struck by this terrifying thunderbolt in Big Sea, yet remained completely unharmed, even laughed out! ... From then on, I grew stronger and more fierce than anyone! My divine power is indeed a gift from the Great Divine Spirit! ..."
Talking about this mythic past, Maha Agudah appeared excited, vigorously patting his chest, revealing great confidence. His father did tell him once about bathing him in Big Sea!
Of course, as a newborn baby, he couldn’t possibly remember those moments. Later, detailed content was personally "Spirit Communication to the Chief Divine" by Priest Kui Huo left by the Kingdom at the Maha Tribe, inquiring the details. And the benefits of such mythification are obvious, enabling Maha Agudah’s bravery to transform into a divine-backed divinity, letting more tribal warriors respect and fear him from the heart!
As for the "Big Sea" here, it was previously called "Lake Beihai’er," and in the mouths of Mongolians, the Holy Lake "Dalai Nu’er," which is the mighty lake that resembles the sea, Lake Baikal. And the appearance of Lake Baikal also indicates that these Wild Man Jurchens, including Maha Agudah, are the most barbaric "Northern Mountain Jurchen Wild Men" who descended south from the north of the Heilongjiang River Basin.
"Ah! How could it be that you were struck by lightning and emerged intact, even possessing astonishing divine strength! Ancestor! What a legend like a great hero! Maha Agudah, with your robust build and genuine divine power, you are sure to become the strongest Nu’er Ha, the Great Wild Boar King!"
"No way! He is sure to become the strongest Daimin, the Great Bird King! A great bird is far more majestic than a great wild boar! ..."
"Damn it, all of you stop arguing! Let me, Wuzhe Aguda, speak! ... Brother Maha Agudah, our ancestors too came from southward tribes from Big Sea! My father told me that when he was young, he had passed Big Sea! Then at the estuary of the Great River, he broke through a sturdy village and captured a beautiful tribal woman, thus I was born!... "
"Indeed! We Wuzhe Tribes all migrated south in this way! As for those broken villages, affluent yet unable to fight, they truly were the best prey! Unfortunately... villages as affluent as those are becoming fewer! And last year was another bitter winter of the white disaster, and the tribe’s food is running out once again!"
