Chapter 765: Faith Never Ends
“WTF? Are you a descendant of Inca royalty? Liu Hong gradually heard that the tea bowl in his hand almost fell to the ground.
But Aragorn didn't look like a liar, for he didn't believe that anyone would come from Murica, tens of thousands of miles away, to deceive him.
"As far as this king knows, the Inca Empire was destroyed by the Franconians a hundred years ago, what do you explain?" Liu Hong gradually took the handkerchief handed over by his subordinates and wiped the tea on his hands.
"Although the empire is occupied by invaders, our people and our faith will never be broken." Aragorn's voice was low, and he began to talk about the centuries-old struggle of the descendants of the Inca royal family.
After the thirteenth generation of the Empire, Sapa Inca Atahualpa, was killed by the Francis, the Inca Empire was plunged into endless civil strife.
Pizarro took control of the empire's capital of Cusco and killed most of the royal family, but Pizarro was the only one who did not find Atahualpa's youngest son, Atahualpa.
Pizarro tortured the servants in the palace without receiving an answer, and in order to justify control of the Inca Empire, Pizarro married Atahualpa's daughter Atahualpa, and their son was given the throne of the Inca Empire.
The greedy Pizarro also emptied all the silver from the Inca treasury and brought it back to Europa, and slaughtered and enslaved the indigenous peoples, which led to constant protests throughout the country.
Eight years later, Francisco, who had fled, led more than 5,000 people to counterattack the Inca Empire, and the offensive was overwhelming, and by the Gyeonggi region of the Inca Empire, it had grown to more than 30,000 people, and Pizarro was shocked.
The day before the battle in Cusco, Francisco suddenly received a letter from Soha, a former subordinate of the city, in which Soha accused Pizarro of various crimes and informed him that he would open the east gate of Cusco that night to welcome the king into the city.
Francisco believed it and led the main force into the city that night despite the dissuasion of his subordinates, but he never expected that this was just a trap, Soha had been bought by Pizarro, and the east gate had already been set up by Pizarro as a huge trap.
Thirty Franciscans, 2,000 muskets, and three hours buried all of Francisco's efforts over the past eight years, and Francisco was finally killed in the eastern city, and the first anti-Francisco battle was shattered.
Over the next eighty years, Francisco's descendants organized six more counter-offensives, large and small, all of which ended in failure, while the people gathered around the royal family withered.
By the time of Aragon's generation, there were less than a thousand people who could go into battle as soldiers, and they had lost the strength to fight the Franciscans, hiding in the depths of the Amazon jungle, desperately waiting for the judgment of fate.
Coincidentally, at this time, the Xishan merchant fleet led by Zhuge Tieniu plunged into the depths of the jungle in search of rubber trees, and the crew members who were devastated by malaria and on the verge of collapse encountered the descendants of the Inca Empire.
Due to the extreme humidity in the Amazon jungle, the crew's muskets had long since become rusty crutches, and the exhausted Zhuge Iron Bull wisely chose not to resist.
Aragorn's subordinates suggested that all of these Ming crew members be killed, they were extremely hostile to outsiders, and their location had been exposed, and if the Francos knew about it, it would be devastating to the tribe.
But Aragorn, a young chief of great foresight, saw that the colour and appearance of the crew were very different from those of the Francis, but rather to those of his people, and he went to interrogate them himself.
To say that this Zhuge Iron Bull, although the name is a little rough, but the mouth and hand skills are really not covered, compared to the comparison to tell Aragorn about their intentions and the strength of the Ming Empire, and successfully won the trust of Aragon.
Facts speak louder than words, and they really only came to Melica to collect some seeds, and they did almost nothing along the way.
Aragorn believed that the Ming was a powerful and friendly country completely different from the barbaric Francis, but Zhuge Tieniu boasted that it was so big that he convinced Aragorn that as long as the Ming fleet was willing to go to Merica, it would definitely help them restore their country.
But Aragorn did not reveal his identity, but only stated that they admired the Ming very much and wanted to go to the powerful Ming Empire.
Zhuge Tieniu was very painful, he just wanted to fool this indigenous tribe and ask them to help collect rubber tree seeds so that they could go back to the errand, but he didn't expect that the team would add a drag oil bottle.
There was no way, Aragorn gave away a lot of gold just with a generous hand, and with people under the eaves, Zhuge Tieniu agreed.
Zhuge Tieniu described their chairman, that is, Comrade Liu Hongchuan, the king of Anguo County, as a legendary hero of the Ming Dynasty, a pillar of the imperial court, and a pillar of the empire.
Rao is like this, when Aragorn first met Liu Hongji, he still did not reveal his identity.
He had to be cautious and cautious, their people could not afford to experience a single defeat, otherwise the royal descendants of the Inca Empire would perish forever in the boundless Amazon jungle.
For more than a month, Aragorn worked hard to learn the Ming language, and tried to talk to the people, merchants, and even officials in the capital to obtain anything he thought was valuable.
In the end, he came to the conclusion that in the eyes of the people, the king of Anguo was their savior, and Liu Hong gradually gave them land to save them from starvation.
In the eyes of the traders, the king of Anguo is a blood-sucking leech, squeezing taxes from them.
In the eyes of the officials, oh, no officials were willing to talk to him about the rights and wrongs of the king of Anguo County, in fact, as soon as these officials heard that it was Liu Hongji's matter, they immediately frowned and drove them out of the door.
But Aragorn still learned a lot, at least in the Ming Dynasty he did not receive any discrimination, and he believed the words of the people the most, after all, he thought that the merchants were living well, and they were not being exploited.
What really made Aragorn decide to show his identity was the powerful army of the Ming Empire, and at this time the legend about the king of the Ming Dynasty had already spread all over the streets and alleys and poor countryside.
The Ming army attacked Tunguska in the north and Rakshasa in the west, relying on invincible firearms to be invincible, and even more, not long ago, the king of Anguo led the fleet to defeat the combined forces of the Netherlands and the Francois country.
What does this mean, even a fool knows it in his heart.
"In this way, the Inca Empire has not yet fallen, but ......" Liu Honggradually listened to Aragon's narration and sympathized with this ancient country in his heart, but ......
"Why did this king help you restore the country?"

PS: Most of the last two chapters are about storytelling, telling the story of the Native Americans, telling the story of Spain and Portugal, and it is difficult for book lovers to understand the tragic plight of the Indians and the shameless behavior of the Europa without clearly telling the background, and it is difficult to make the story coherent in the form of pure dialogue, so Hanhan uses the method of memory to narrate.
Han Han beat his chest, and once again appealed to friends who read pirated copies, come to the starting point and book it all, Han Han has to rely on this to eat and pay off debts, it's really not good, it's okay to vote for a recommendation, let me know you're all there.
