Next to the Pacific Ocean, the City of God is a place full of hills, woods, rivers, grasslands, beautiful scenery and pleasant climate all year round. However, there is neither God nor city, only a small number of Indians from the Chumash tribe live here for generations, living a primitive life without conflict.

The place name of this city of God was not founded by the Chumash people, but arrived here in 1542 to explore the Spanish colonists. However, those colonists did not stay in the City of God for a long time, but went away disappointed after exploring it - they did not come to find God, but to find a mountain of gold and silver and a legendary lost Indian city full of treasures. Unfortunately, they did not get any information about the lost city of Indian treasures from the local Chumash people... They did not even find any object that could be hooked to civilization from the Chumash people.

Obviously, the mountains of gold, mountains of silver and cities of Lost are all baseless rumors. In the first few decades when the Spanish arrived in the Americas, they often explored some strange legends. For example, Florida has the spring water of immortality, South Carolina has a Diamond Mountain, Texas has the Kingdom of Granquevila, Arizona has seven cities full of wealth, etc.

The exploration of the area of ​​the City of God organized by the Spanish was also due to some rumors.

After these explorers from Europe left, the City of God was once again trapped in isolation from the world. Until more than 140 years later, in 1685, Raul Torres, a diocese bishop from the Neo-Andalusian colony, which belongs to the Kingdom of New Spain, heard from somewhere the legend of Kings, Silver Mountains and the Lost City. This priest, who was about 40 years old and from Spain, spent a lot of money to get his current position, and of course he wanted to find an opportunity to make up for it. So he was naturally particularly interested in the legend of Kings, Silver Mountains and the Lost City.

Of course, he was not a fool, and he knew that such rumors were mostly unreliable. But he decided to go this journey... in the name of spreading the gospel to God's City, so that he could use the public funds of the parish to pay the expenses. If he could find the mountains of gold, silver and the city of loss, he would have sent it. If he didn't find it, he could always bring some believers who would convert to Catholicism in the area of ​​God's City. For this reason, he used the funds of the parish to go to the Port of Acapulco (an important port in the Pacific) to buy a batch of Western swords transported from the Pacific to give to the leaders of tribes who were willing to believe in religion.

His exploration of the City of Heaven actually happened in the first half of 1685. At that time, the Mongols in Om from Danjin had not yet entered the City of God. Therefore, he did not meet those Mongolians who killed without blinking... So his group returned to the south of the Sonora Desert without any danger.

Although this exploration still found no clues related to the Lost City, I got some pure natural pieces of gold from several tribal leaders who promised to convert!

And those people also told Raul Torres that these little yellow stones were from the Orons in the north!

Raul Torres, who was particularly sensitive to gold, immediately realized that there must be gold mines that can be mined open-pit in some place north of God's City, and the reserves are amazing!

But of course, the supply of the missionary team led by Raul Torres was almost exhausted, and the team members were very tired and could only temporarily return to the south of the Sonora Desert to rest. At the same time, they hired more than a hundred and dozens of armed Mestiso people (Indo-European mixed race) and equipped them with advanced weapons enough to crush hundreds of Indian soldiers.

After completing the rest and equipment, in January 1686, Raul Torres led an expedition team with a total number of more than 200 people to cross the Sonora Desert and heading north.

But when they arrived in the area of ​​God's City, they found that most of the local Indian villages were abandoned, and people didn't know where they went? Some seemed to have been looted and burned!

Now Raul Torres became alert immediately. He realized that it was very likely that some powerful Indian tribes had entered the City of God - there were still some Indians who were more capable of fighting. The cities of St. Juan and Santa Fe in northeastern New Spain were all attacked by the Indian Safari tribes of the Great Plains!

However, Raul Torres, who had participated in several wars on the European continent, was unwilling to give up, but asked the mercenary captain who had hired a lot of money, the Mestiso man named Perez to be careful of the Indians' sneak attacks. He also asked Perez to form a circular caravan while the expedition team was camping... In his opinion, the Indians were behind after all, and if they really wanted to fight, they would definitely not be the opponent of the Mestiso mercenaries of the New Spain Kingdom, which had a mestiso, breastplate, steel swords and spears.

Under the protection of these Mestiso mercenaries, Raul Torres was also safe and quickly penetrated into the hinterland of the City of God. This area is full of plump grasslands, a large number of lush forests, and rolling mountains and vast Pacific Oceans in the distance. On the green grassland, there are also small white tents dotted, and white cloud-like sheep flowing on the grassland... It seems a bit wrong! Raul Torres just thought of this, and Perez was already shouting.

"Tents? Flocks? God... Where did these come from?"

Yes, where did it come from?

Nomad Indians?

I have never heard of such an Indian tribe!

Before Raul Torres and Perez could react, a harsh sound of bald robe suddenly sounded in the nearby woodland, and then thousands of men wearing white robes and white snow hats rushed out.

These white knights looked quite powerful, as if they were carrying muskets and carrying bows and arrows. Some of them were holding charge spears. Thousands of knights were riding horses and adjusting their formations. When they approached the vicinity of Raul Torres's convoy, they had formed a crescent half-ring, and Raul Torres' convoy formed a semi-encirclement.

In addition, these people also wore two white and low black flags. The words on the flag Raul Torres didn't recognize them, but they knew that they were square characters used by Oriental people!

If he knew Chinese characters, he would probably be even more surprised.

Because these two flags are embroidered with "Da Bang Yin" and "Dayi Shang"!

Raul Torres looked closely and found that those people were all Eastern Confucians... Could it be the legendary Mongols? Are the Mongols not nomadic people? How did they swim across the Pacific Ocean to the New World?

Thinking of this, Raul Torres asked loudly in blunt Chinese: "Who are you...? Here, the land of the Kingdom of Spain!"

He had also learned Chinese! He was a Jesuit monk and was planning to go to China for a time to preach, so he learned a little Chinese in a Jesuit school. However, later Zhu Hetian banned the spread of Catholicism, so he did not go to China.
