Chapter 5: The Sound of the Trumpet on the Black Sea

The Black Sea, where the waves are rough, Sura Abi once said: The past is unbearable to look back on, and it is difficult to talk about it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

He had been humiliated by the centaurs in the vast grasslands, where the 100,000 Goliath soldiers under his command were destroyed.

"Goliath is a people as cruel and strong as a devil, as cunning and vicious as a devil.

So when the Goliaths conquered the liberal-loving Romans, they wanted to bring under their rule the same carefree and free Masacai (centaurs).

And the Masagaitai are said to be a mighty race of warriors and warriors, who live on the east side of the sunrise, on the banks of the Black River, and they will surely humiliate the Goliaths. A master prophet among the Romans said before the war.

Before he went out, Sura Abi promised all the Goliaths who were with him: "Once the enemy is defeated, you will ride on their women." Their young children can be killed, their blood washed of rusty swords, and horses can be drunk from the entire Black Sea. ”

The Goliaths were very successful in their initial march, they easily defeated the centaur royal court guards Pindari cavalry, broke into the hinterland of the khanate, and after killing countless centaur herdsmen, the arrogant army continued to penetrate, but was ambushed by the centaurs on the steppe, and the whole army survived except him.

This was something that Sura Abi had never expected, he was defeated, he did not think of breaking away from his men and fleeing for his life alone at the most critical moment of the battlefield, and when the centaur's poisonous arrow pierced his left calf, he shouted: "Warriors, there is a mountain full of blades and a sea of flames, and there is no way to retreat, and there is no way to retreat for the samurai." ”

But in the end, he was forced to leave the battlefield by his men, who tied him to the back of the fastest and last horse with the strongest magic rope, and his soldiers said to him: "Great Sura Abi, the strongest general of the Great Majesty, please go, the rope of magic will be broken in four hours, and then the army will be completely destroyed, and you will be safe." Please don't forget our families, don't forget to avenge us, and kill all the centaurs and crucify all their young children in the future. ”

Sura Abi returned home, and in the face of such a big defeat, the parliament naturally desperately accused: "How can we wash away the shame of the republic with 100,000 undead souls?"

Sura Abi was silent that day, and he rode alone to the flat ground outside Abiwe to watch the sunrise.

He watched the sun rise and the heavens and the earth joined, and the brightest horizon sighed: even the sky has no soul.

The plan to conquer the Black Sea coast failed. But even the Romans had established order here, so didn't the Goliaths have the ability to conquer and rule the places that were conquered and ruled by the Romans?

He once again gathered a large army, an army of 200,000 men organized by the Goliaths from the province of Poyue.

On that day, he led his army here, vowing to conquer the royal court of the aliens and defeat the centaurs once and for all.

He succeeded, and the Goliaths broke through the Golden Tent of the Centaur Khan, and almost wiped out the half-man, half-horse, and the Goliaths spared no men, and they killed everything they could.

From then on, the kingdom of Ciborus on the Black Sea became a Goliath's four-tier vassal on the Black Sea - a tightly controlled system of vassals, and unlike blood vassals who only provided a few soldiers in time of war, the monarchs of the four-part vassals had to be appointed by the Goliaths.

Rather than exterminate the centaurs in the end, Sura Abi took a fancy to these warriors who were more warlike and reliable than the Goliaths.

Harsh environments create harsh peoples, and in the steppes of centaurs, they either become cruel warriors or corpses.

In the minds of centaur males, life is all about tribe, hatred, women, wealth, and holding on to territory.

They fought each other for their tribesmen for pasture and water for their livestock.

They plunder and plunder each other's cattle only out of hatred and revenge.

They fought to the death for women, just for the chance to reproduce.

They have a natural thirst for wealth and regard glory as if it were something above life.

They are extremely territorial, and have a traditional personality of clinging to all the land that belongs to the centaur family, and they will fight to the death with the enemies who encroach on their land.

The centaur tribe, both men and women, are very tough warriors, and the centaur royal guards Pindari cavalry have this motto: "Only advance, only charge, only Khan." ”

All of this led Sura Abi to believe that the centaurs should not be exterminated, that they were a heroic nation, and that the Goliaths were also a heroic nation, and that a heroic nation could not destroy another heroic nation.

This is different from his dislike of the Hebrews, who he once described as "when they put their hands in their filthy purses, they make a metal crashing sound, like the footsteps of the devil, and you have to beware of these hooked nose guys, their descendants and themselves, all profiteers, cunning and despicable villains from Israel, messengers of demons and devils.

Centaurs were eventually able to survive and thrive in this dark and blue land, and with the help of the Goliaths' civil strife and negotiations, they managed to break away from the status of the Tetra vassal state and become the direct vassal of the Emperor of the Republic, without any orders from the common people, and only provided guards for the Emperor in times of war.

However, the Centaurs did not support the Orthodox Emperor in the Parliamentary Army during the "War of the Puppet Emperor" that broke out after Sura Abi's death, but instead joined the Sullanists, who seem to have their own opinions on the affairs of the Goliaths.

Finally the Parliament asked Sullius, known as "Sullius the Great", "Sullius who defeated the Western Crusade", "The man who exterminated pirates", "The mighty man who was not afraid of Malta's spiral nest" (long before Roman times, the waters around Malta had mysterious powers that could suck all the birds that flew in the sky) and "Sullius", known as the "Guardian of the Mediterranean", to help them punish the rebellious centaurs and tame them.

After conquering the plains and highlands of western Europa, advancing to the central Black Forest to conquer the Germans, and going north to conquer Norway, Sulho prepared to follow the advice of the parliament and strike at the centaurs.

He commanded his army to cross the Danube, which had been invaded by the centaurs after the Centaurs had left the republican order on the continent of Europatar, and drove the centaurs from the Magyar steppe in the Dacia region, and then repelled a major counterattack by the centaurs.

He then led his army to attack the Black Steppe, the shore of the Black Sea, where the centaurs lived.

Under the blow of the god of war, all the resistance of the centaurs, all the courage and stratagem they relied on were useless, and the most powerful cavalry of the royal court Pindari were defeated, and the entire centaur tribe suffered countless casualties, which was the result of Su Liu's strict prohibition of soldiers to slaughter and pillage.

Sullo conquered the Centaur steppe, but did not want to commit atrocities against them, because he always believed that the Centaurs had never done anything to provoke the Republic, and even if they were, it was only the harm caused by mosquitoes to lions, and it was not worth mentioning.

He eventually evacuated, leaving only a small number of soldiers stationed in Riza, a natural fortress surrounded on three sides by mountains and the sea on the other.

The city was first built by the Romans as a winter camp for the Roman expeditionary force, and as a large number of merchants settled there, it gradually developed into the most prosperous bazaar in the Black Sea region, then towns, and finally a fortress-like fortified city, the pearl of the Black Sea.

He also plans to release the captured centaur princess Toslina back.

For the stubborn little mare, he always comforted her with a gentle and moist voice, and never humiliated.

At the end of the war, Xiang Parliament refused to put the princess in a cage as a trophy for his own triumphal ceremony and released her.

This has satisfied some in parliament and some not.

After the war against the Centaurs, Sullo ended his expansion in Europa, as he had conquered all of Europa - as the Centaur Princess, in return for her, ordered her men to drive the Slavs conquered by the Centaurs to Sullo's camp...... Sulho accepted the surrender of the Slavs in the Magyar camp, and he subjugated all of Eastern Europa, and the Slavic king Putinis swore that the Slavs would submit to the Goliaths.

The endless black land, the steppe of the flat river, the bleak cold wind, and the resounding sound of the sea washing.

An old carriage is driving over this land, and the old wheels are turning, constantly making "creaking" and "creaking" sounds, which can be seen to be a very dilapidated carriage.

Inside the carriage, a man and a woman, outside the carriage, in addition to the horseman who drove the horse, there was also a man riding a military horse.

Inside the carriage, there was a man's voice of dissatisfaction: "My great-great-great-grandmother, why are you here?"

She has silver-white hair as bright as the polar day, eyes like pink rubies, and delicate and small facial features like a doll.

This is the witch of Scythia, the woman of the House of Yagonagus who does not belong to the House of Yagonagus.

She was a little dissatisfied, but she didn't speak, and the man simply didn't make a sound, but the man on horseback outside turned his head from time to time to listen to the movements inside the carriage and made various analyses.

The carriage moved on......

Perhaps, new conquerors are beginning to emerge......
