Chapter 216: Sparta [Fourth Update, Jinjin Sister Paper +1]

At this point, Hans took over.

"You're talking about the property hidden under the bed, I'm sorry, we've turned it out, it's two big boxes of gold coins, big rich guy. ”

Brad was not distressed by the money, his eyebrows moved, and he shook his head: "No, what I want to give you is a message." ”

When the words fell, he suddenly chuckled, thought of something, silently raised his eyes and glanced around, and asked, "By the way, who are you?"

Ten large frigates, comparable to the top configuration of the Royal Navy, you must know that even a wealthy businessman would not be allowed to use such a strong ship and sharp guns.

However, the group of well-trained but casual sailors in front of them had no trace of the army at all.

Not long ago, the shells that swept across the deck made him still feel uneasy.

Facing his doubts, Zheng Fei smiled slightly and said, "None of us are any. ”

Brad wrinkled his eyebrows, looking a little suspicious, but thinking that he was already a dying person, he sighed with a wry smile and said, "No matter who you are, you must need one thing, and that is to be armed." ”

"You're right, but there's no arm in the world that money can't buy. ”

"No, you can't really buy this. ”

Brad curled the corners of his mouth proudly, leaned against the guardrail, looked dominant, full of confidence, and said easily: "Have you ever heard of Sparta?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked.

Sparta, the ancient Greek city-state, means "cultivable plain" in Greek.

Sparta was known for its harsh discipline, dictatorship, and militarism, and in the Peloponnesian War, Sparta and its allies defeated the Athenian army and occupied all of Greece.

After the rise of Macedonia in the north, Sparta gradually lost its influence in Greece and officially dissolved in 195 BC.

Sparta, arguably the most savage and formidable nation of all time, may have other peoples wilder and more explosive (such as the Russian Turks, to which primitive people belonged), but none of them were as famous as it was, because of faith.

There are many kinds of faith, some people believe in God, some people believe in Allah, and the Spartans believe in battle!

Only the Spartans, from the moment they were born, were born for war!

Spartan children were owned by the state, raised by their parents in place of the state until the age of seven, and were sent to the state's educational institutions after the age of seven, where they underwent harsh military training and moral indoctrination, so that they could develop a healthy body and a tenacious will, and eventually become warriors of the empire.

In the Greco-Persian War, the Spartan warriors, plus the servant army from the Greek city-states, arrived in Persia with a heroic and fearless attitude, leaving the most dazzling brilliance in the long river of history!

In later generations, some people called these 300 warriors - Achilles.

Achilles, a demigod in Greek mythology, the greatest hero of the Trojan War, the best of the heroes of the second generation, along with Odysseus, who invented the Trojan horse, is known as the most vivid image in Greek mythology.

In the impression of medieval Europeans, the only people who could compare with the Spartans were the indigenous Aztecs of Central America and the Mongol iron horsemen who swept across Europe

When they heard the sacred name of Sparta, the sailors let out a cry of exclamation, and then cast a puzzled look at Brad, waiting for him to continue.

Sparta, even Zheng Fei from the 21st century, is like thunder.

But he thought about it carefully, Sparta was not ancient Greece, but it was the Middle Ages, and thousands of years had passed since its decline.

He frowned, and was about to ask something, when Brad began to explain.

"The city-state of Sparta died more than a thousand years ago, but the blood of this people is still alive, and many of their descendants fled to uninhabited mountain villages in Eastern Europe and Western Asia, where they flourish to this day. ”

As he spoke, Brad twisted his sore neck, looked into Zheng Fei's eyes, smiled evilly, and said, "Brave and fearless Spartan warrior, can you buy it?"

Zheng Fei was very receptive to his explanation, because something similar had happened before.

A few months ago in Lisbon, he used the Eternal Knife to summon the descendants of the Knights of the Round Table, led by Ares, and with their help, slashed all the way to the port and escaped.

The Knight of the Round Table was a follower of King Arthur, and thousands of years had passed since King Arthur's death, so he was fully receptive to the existence of Spartan descendants.

After a moment's deliberation, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and he said to Brad, "Do you know where they are?"

Who would have thought about it, but Brad shook his head and said calmly: "I don't know, but someone knows, and you've seen him once." ”

"Who?"

"On the exchange, the Romanian prince is my target for assassination. He found the Spartan warriors and wanted to order them to help Romania defend against the attacks of the West Asian army, but how could the barbarians listen to him, so he came to Italy, looking for traces of Sparta in the old site of ancient Rome, hoping to find tokens and the like, and lead the group of Spartan descendants! Just a month ago, he found it, and was ready to go back to summon the warrior army after contacting the Central European countries for support. ”

Brad said very seriously, and his demeanor was so sincere that people had to believe him.

Hearing this, Zheng Fei couldn't help but smile and said, "So, that's why you assassinated him, right?"

"That's right, my employer is on the side that attacked Romania, and they gave me 50,000 silver coins to kill the prince and not let him return home. ”

Zheng Fei frowned, and then asked, "How many Spartans are there?"

"It is said that there are tens of thousands of people who have multiplied to this day. ”

Three hundred Spartan warriors can resist the Persian army, tens of thousands, what is the concept?! Even if they are used as laborers, they can top four or five at a time!

This number made the sailors who had been listening for a long time look at each other, talk a lot, and sigh.

The corners of Zheng Fei's mouth raised a surprised and satisfied arc, turned his head and glanced at the young Roland, and after a short pause, he moved his gaze back and said to Brad: "I mean what I say, and after verifying the situation, Roland will be able to survive." ”

"Thank you!" Brad bowed his head, the fourth time he had said thank you.

However, before his joy could fully bloom on his face, he froze stiffly, because he heard Zheng Fei say a word.

"But"

He raised his head in astonishment, stared straight at Zheng Fei, his breath was short, and he pinched his sweat uneasily.
