Xisheng: Difference between revisions

The schism in the [[Ixa'Taka]]n empire did not go unnoticed by [[Varshan]], only a few years later it started incursions into the former's southernmost territories as far as the Mountains of the Sun. At first these territorial intrusions involved only a few hundred men at any one time and were either ignored or thrown back easily enough. By the 1200's [[Varshan]] began to openly attack the Ajaw settlements that paid tribute to Ixa'Taka prompting harsher responses. An army commanded by a nephew of the Umatz Janab I pushed the invaders out and then invaded north [[Varshan]] for five months before being annihilated in battle by the Zurg's royal army. The following century would see a pattern of territorial encroachment by [[Varshan]] and temporary alliances by [[Chimoche]] and [[Ixa'Taka]] to push back on these advances.
