"O Greek Islands, beautiful Greek Islands!

The fiery Saffer sang love songs here;

Here, the art of war and peace flourish side by side,

Delos rises, Apollo leaps out of the sea!

Eternal summer gilds the island with gold,

But except for the sun, everything was gone.

The muse of Kaio, the muse of Theo,

The hero's harp, the lover's lute,

I have gained a reputation on your shore,

Now in this birthplace, he is dumb......"

In a secluded villa on the island of Crete, Lu Qiujian stood on a balcony overlooking the sea, reciting passionate poetry to Natalie, who was sitting on a chaise longue sunbathing.

Natalie, on the other hand, had not tasted a glass of Greek wine for a long time, and all she could see was Lu Qiujian's toned body like Hercules Hercules and the magnetic voice of Apollo, the god of poetry.

Perhaps most people will think that European and American poetry does not pay attention to rhythm and rhyme, but in fact, it is just that the translator's ability is insufficient to take into account the format, implication, and rhythm in poetry translation! The poem that Lu Qiujian is now reciting is the most famous passage in the famous British romantic poet Lord Byron's masterpiece "Don Juan" -- "Lamenting Greece."

The poem uses a four-step austral, the so-called step is a special combination of stressed and unstressed sounds in English poetry, which reads together with a great sense of rhyme, and Byron is also very particular about the rhyme chosen for this poem, the fricative "S" is interlaced with the "O" sound that the American poet Poe had in mind to best represent the sad mood. Let the poem sound from a gentle breeze slowly turning into a low, sad and angry storm.

Lucius's chant takes Natalie back to 2,500 years ago when the Persian king Xerxes invaded Greece with a large army, with thousands of warships scattered across the Aegean Sea and countless sails covering the sky, and the Greeks were far inferior to the Persians in both strength and equipment.

But they didn't give in. On land, Leonidas, king of Sparta, led 300 warriors to defend Thermopylae, killing tens of thousands of Persian warriors, and by sea, Themistocles led a weak Greek navy to take advantage of the narrow terrain of Salami Bay and flee with Xerxes, who had won fewer and fought more.

"It's hard to imagine that the people here are the descendants of these heroes!" Natalie said with emotion as she looked at the sun-basking locals on the beach.

"When I went to Italy to compete, I also went around the city. I can't imagine that those lazy and romantic Italians are the heirs of the Roman Empire!" said Lu Qiujian with a shrug, if Caesar saw the performance of Italy in the two worlds, he would probably crawl out of the grave in anger.

The Greeks are also about the same as the Italians. Lu Qiujian was quite impressed by the fact that they played tricks on the EU in later generations! But then again, there are indeed very few nations that have maintained a strong fighting spirit since thousands of years ago, except for the Chinese!

After reciting the poem, Lu Qiujian returned to Natalie's side, picked up the wine glass on the table and touched her lightly. "Greece has been making wine for more than 2,300 years. Although they are not as famous as French wines, they do have their own unique features, so you might as well savor them!"

"I've drunk red wine from Naousa before, but this is the first time I've tasted Cretan wine!" Natalie shook her glass, put the decanted wine in her mouth, and then closed her eyes and savored it slowly.

The two of them chatted casually about the characteristics of fine wines from all over the world, you and I drank a glass of wine, and soon drank the bottle of wine. Natalie's face began to slowly blush after being slightly drunk, and she looked particularly delicate and seductive.

Seeing that the time had come, Lu Qiujian got up and put one hand on Natalie's leg. With one hand around her shoulders, he carried her back to the master bedroom in the villa, gently placed her on the bed, and began to take off his own clothes.

At this moment, Lu Qiujian turned into the largest warship under the command of Xerxes, with the thick ramming angle of the bow raised high, while Natalie became the Greek side to resist the invasion, slightly moving out of the narrow Salami Bay, just waiting for Lu Qiujian's ramming angle to enter the bay and striking on both sides, trying to introduce the ramming angle into the depth of the bay and then slowly deal with it.

Lu Qiujian was much smarter than the Persian king Xerxes, seeing that the enemy had opened the bay but did not rush in, the huge collision angle cruising at the entrance of the bay was tentative, taking advantage of the rising tide to slowly enter the entrance of the bay, and slowly withdrawing with the ebb tide, so that the ambushes who had been waiting on both sides were not attacking, nor were they retreating, and they were restless.

In this way, the ambush soldiers on both sides lost their vigilance, and taking advantage of the other side's trance, the ramming angle suddenly accelerated straight into the interior of the bay, and the thick logs wedged deep into the bay, pushing the ambush soldiers on both sides away, and at this moment, the bay seemed to be squeezed wider by the ramming angle, and the top of the ramming angle was only a millimeter away from the enemy's fortress.

The ropes raised at the bottom of the ramming horn swept across the hills on either side of the bay, tangled with the dense forest at the top of the hills, and the two huge boulders hanging from the sides of the giant ship slammed against the fortress below the hills of the bay, and the enemy let out a series of wails.

The ambush soldiers on both sides finally reacted, reunited their determination, and desperately squeezed towards the middle, trying to keep the collision angle in the bay; but Lu Qiujian had expected this, and slowly withdrew from the bay by taking advantage of the low tide; just when the defenders on both sides were extremely disappointed, they quickly rushed into the bay again, and slowly stuffed the entire bay.

This time it was even more aggressive than the previous offensive, and the top of the ramming horn did not retreat again until it touched the wall of the Greek army headquarters, and then the ramming offensive became more unpredictable, attacking the mountains on both sides of the strait from left to right, and when it was ready, it suddenly changed the direction of the attack, raising the ramming angle high and pointing it towards the weak defensive zone that the Greek army feared the most.

If this is repeated, the mountains on both sides are already filled with sea water from the waves set off by the rapid entry and exit of the battleship, and of course, the crashing angles of the giant ship and the boulders on both sides are not spared.

Lu Qiujian's huge ship attacked until sunset, and only slowly retreated when Salami Bay was no longer able to stop its own attack.

The war lasted for three days, and the Persian giant ship led by Lü Qiujian finally conquered Natalie's Greece and completely took this fertile land for himself.

After reluctantly saying goodbye at the airport, Lu Qiujian returned to Munich after a long absence; Well, it seems that the league has already played two more games, I wonder how Bayern performed in these two games? )
