Prologue I Mediterranean Sea to the Black Sea
In ancient times, in a time when humanity had not yet been directly separated from the gods. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was the age of mythology that belonged to the gods, the age of mythology countless years before the age of the city-states, the age when the gods occupied the sky and the continent.
At that time, the sky was ruled by the great god of the sky, Kronos, and the earth was ruled by Rhea. There were no gods of the sea and Hades, and there were no more gods, only a few goddesses who arrived from Egypt.
Under the rule of the two gods, the southernmost peninsula of Europa was extremely rich and orderly, and no city-state would not worship the gods, and the position of Kronos could not be replaced, because at that time, in addition to the gods, the only people who had super power on the earth were the titan gods who lived in hell.
The Titans were the sons of Kronus and the Egyptian god of water, and these sons were as greedy and evil as the most evil monsters imaginable, and they were all strangely shaped, with dragon heads, sheep heads, even octopus bodies, and some completely non-human forms.
For example, the dragon Wihes who showed Kronos the orchard. The creature was entirely in dragon form, and was not even recognized by Kronos as his son.
The Titan god was soon disgusted by Kronos and banished to the Hell beneath the underground labyrinth (the reason for the exile seems to be Rhea's warning, who believed that the Titans would threaten Kronos' position), with the half-bull Claudius in charge of the keys to the gates of Hell and the route of the labyrinth.
Later, everything changed when Kronos and Rhea gave birth to their son together. Their sons are Jupiter of the Sky with lightning speed and thunder power, Poseidon with the power of the sea, and Hades with the power of Hades.
One of the most powerful sons, Jupiter Zeus, set off a war against Kronos, and he was supported by Hades and Poseidon, and finally defeated Kronus in a centuries-long war, and defeated Cronus's reinforcements, his other loyal sons, the Titans.
Jupiter later expelled the god of the sea and the king of Hades from the sky, and from then on ruled the sky alone, while the god of the sea and the king of Hades, who resented him, occupied the sea and the underworld respectively.
After Jupiter married his sister and made her a god, they gave birth to more gods, and from then on there were gods of wealth, gods of war, gods of fire, gods of mountains, gods of springs, gods of love, gods of hunting, and gods of abundance.
Then Jupiter was again united with his daughters and gave birth to more gods.
The witch of Scythia sighed, "ΔwδekθeoλμπouΔwδekθeo."
At the suggestion of the god queen Hyawi, Jupiter not only executed all the captured Egyptian gods, but also placed the Titans on the pillar and destroyed them with thunder.
But some of the escaped Titans came to the Greek island of Salamis and united with the natives there to become a new demigod people, giants.
Eight hundred of the giants were 10,000 meters high, but in the end only Ubermons remained, and he also became the king of the giants, and unified the island of Salamis, and began to plan an attack on the mainland.
Over the next millennium, the giants crossed the sea one after another, and under the leadership of the 10,000-meter-tall giant king Ubermons, they began to attack the human city-states, which were almost completely destroyed under the blows of the Thunder Giants and the Storm Giants as the spearhead.
Since then, giants have ravaged the world, trampling cities, destroying farmland, exhaling poisonous gases from their nostrils that can poison more than 100,000 livestock, and their mouths flowing hot magma.
Both the god of the sea and the king of Hades are secretly pushing the waves, and they support the giants in destroying Jupiter's earth.
Jupiter was eventually furious, and instead of being sad and sad at the human tragedy, Jupiter felt a sense of being teased by ants because the giants had destroyed his world.
The southern part of Europa was completely reduced to hell, where the humans fled to Olympia, the highest mountain, and built the highest wall, Troy, in an attempt to fend off the giants, but the giant king Ubermons finally defied the warnings of Jupiter's envoy, who had become an eagle, and insisted on destroying Troy.
Jupiter's anger eventually exploded, and he sent the great hero Heracles, who killed Ubermons in three minutes on the volcano, and was successfully promoted from a demigod to a full god.
However, the remaining 100,000 giants with a height of 1,000 meters were not grateful for Jupiter's mercy and forgiveness, and not long after the fall of the Giant King, they elected a new king, and with the support of the Immortal King, established the Giant Kingdom, openly fighting against Jupiter.
The god of fire, whose strength was not very strong among the gods, offered to ask Jupiter to destroy the giants, and Jupiter agreed.
In the face of the roar of more than 100,000 giants, the Vulcan only used one finger, and when the sky was completely like being burned, a huge force began to gather, and finally converged into a huge meteorite.
With the advent of the meteorite, the kingdom of giants was destroyed in an instant, and more than 100,000 giants thousands of meters high were destroyed by the god of fire with less than one-tenth of their power, except for the giants who remained on the island and were not killed.
Troy became the only kingdom representing Jupiter, and then more city-states were divided from Troy, and they dominated the world from the Mediterranean to the Black Sea, at this time, only the Boyue Empire in the east could match their glory, and as for the Romans, the republic they established was not yet known, but struggled to resist the invasion of the Gauls between the four hills.
Troy was later defeated by other divided city-states and fled to the seashores of Asia, and after being destroyed again by the pursuing enemy, they fled to the Romans in the Apennines, and with the help of the Trojans, the Romans quickly began to rise······
Some of the surviving giants were quickly captured by the humans who invaded the island, and the humans took pleasure in torturing the female giants to death in every conceivable torture, for which Jupiter finally felt the joy he had not felt for a long time. He listened to the voices that had reached the heavens from the earth and finally to the palaces on the clouds, the painful wails of those who had rebelled against him, with great satisfaction.
Jupiter's time was not permanent, and the moment when the female giant was exploited by human careerists was enough to prove that his authority was not enough to cover the entire human race, at most only the Greeks believed in him, the Romans believed in him at first, and later believed in the word of the Hebrews, and believed in the Lord Jehovah.
After an unknown number of years, he found that his power was declining, and he could only stay in the palace in the sky, where he could not go, and he could no longer bring miracles to the world, and the other gods could not leave their palaces, and as time passed, their palaces also disappeared into the sky, perhaps to another time gap.
The same thing happened in Egypt and even further east, where the gods disappeared from people's lives.
With the power of thunder, Jupiter tore through the space and continued to stay in the earthly sky, but he could no longer go to the ground. And the sea god, who also remained in the world, could not leave his palace under the sea and come to the earth. The Hades can only hide in his own palace of the underworld, and cannot come to the earth at will.
The gods who blessed the Greeks disappeared in this way, so much so that when the attack of the Bolunians led to the near destruction of the Greek city-states, the Greeks were left to their own devices.
The era of the gods ended, and later the era of the city-states of the Greeks and Sumerians also ended, and the great empire founded by the Bomoonians was destroyed by the Macedonian king Aristotle the Great along with the Greeks, marking the end of the age of mythology......
The advent of the classical era......
A new kingdom rose in the Mediterranean, Rome, but he was not the strongest, the people who called themselves the Aryans and were called Boyue by the Greeks, the strongest country established, but the power of Rome was enough to destroy the declining Greece, but it was preempted by the Macedonians, but the Romans still ransacked some of the islands of the Greeks......
The Romans captured the island of Salamis and transported the 100-meter-tall female giants to Rome in iron carts, and the Roman emperors tried to resurrect the giants and use them to conquer the city.
When the towering spire of the magic consul and the magic emperor of Rome soared into the sky, it marked the beginning of the transfer of respect for the gods to the emperor, of course, people still believed in gods, the Romans believed in gods very much, for the first hundreds of years, from the end of the republican era to the first hundred years of the imperial era, they believed in Jupiter, and then believed in the way of the Hebrew carpenter, the so-called Cross Religion, a religion that split from the Hebrew Hexagram.
It opens with the Classical Era, which ended with the Age of Mythology.
The sixty centuries leading up to the founding of the Roman Empire and the establishment of the Republic of Abivi are known as the Postclassic era, which was the era of the Romans and the Boyue people were in relative decline.
The end of the post-classic era was a Goliath named Abivie, who occupied all the lands of both empires and conquered the dark forests of Europa and the shores of the Black Sea, which were not occupied by the Romans.
However, after all, the era of Abiwei is relatively recent, and it does not feel full of mystery, although it is also a legend, but the more deeds are circulated, the more epic it will not make people feel epic, even the current Goliath-led Republic theater, most of which interpret the glory of ancient Greece.
The first time of the Classical era before the post-classical era is difficult to describe in the history books, when the gods of Olympia and all the gods of the whole world fell and disappeared, and mankind began to establish its own glory.
Various empires and city-states began to emerge, with the strongest being the Achaemenid dynasty of the Boyuens, and the strongest city-state being the Athenian-dominated Greek city-state alliance.
The fiercest war was fought between them...... Until the Macedonians rose to prominence.
The history of the moon is very long, so let's start at the beginning......
Long before and after the founding of Rome, the Median king Cuathales conquered Boyue and the other tribes around him, and established the vast Median Empire, an empire on the plateau.
He carried out military reforms, forming a regular army of spearmen, archers, and cavalry, as well as an undead army of warriors with strong fighting spirit, and allied with the Sumerian Neo-Babylonian Empire against the Assyrian tribes.
In order to keep the princess from nostalgic nostalgia for her verdant homeland, the Medesan princess Amityda married the neo-Babylonian king Nebuchadnezzar, who built her famous Hanging Gardens, a floating city built in Babylon with the help of magicians.
The combined Medes and Neo-Babylonian armies captured the Assyrian capital of Nineveh and completely destroyed it.
After a series of conquests, the Medes developed into a vast empire that encompassed half of Western Asia.
When the Median Empire began its expansion, the Boyue tribe, a newly independent tribe in the south, replaced the declining New Elamite Empire as the southern masters of the plateau, the Ovisotoya dynasty.
As for the Boyue kingdom under the rule of the Medes, although it was conquered by the Medes, it also retained its own monarch and became a vassal state of the latter.
Achaemenes, the leader of the Bolunians under the Medie, eventually broke away from the Medes and founded the Boyue Empire, and his son Cambyses I founded the Kingdom of Andoran.
The two kingdoms of the Boyue were ruled by the descendants of the great Achaemenes, the "family of the gods", and the time came together, and later, when the king of Andoran, Cyrus Gon Le II, came to the throne, and the other branch had little power at this time, he conquered it, so that the Boyue became one and became the Achaemenid dynasty.
Cyrus Gon Le II, also known as Cyrus the Great, was a slave due to court intrigues, but eventually became the ruler of the empire with the help of a great sorcerer who lived in seclusion on the Black Sea, and later became one of the most powerful men in the world, the builder of the Babylonian Warrior Temple (destroyed by a fire by the Goliaths led by Lydela).
During his reign, the Bolunian Empire became the most prosperous empire in the world ever.
In order to overthrow the suzerain, Cyrus attacked the Medes.
The war lasted for thirty years, and finally the Median nobles instigated a military rebellion and handed over the king of the Medes to the Boyuens.
Cyrus led his army into the Medesnian city of Ecbatana, and returned to Andoran the captured gold, silver, treasures, weapons, and other booty.
With the conquest of the Medes, the Boyue people took the first step to establish a world empire, and at the same time, the Medes and the Boyue people, the two peoples of the same language and species, were combined into one, which greatly strengthened Cyrus's manpower and material resources, and he also inherited the undead army, which also laid the foundation for the arrival of the later Boyue "Martial God Age", at that time, the peerless power of the Boyue people will not be as good as the magic emperor of the Romans.
Later, Cyrus conquered Susa and Cappadocia, directly threatening the two great powers of Western Asia at the time, the Republic of Lydimia in Asia Minor and the Neo-Babylonian Empire in the valley of the two rivers.
Lydimia sent an army to Cappadocia, fought against the Poryue, and the following year was defeated by the Porchian army, the king was captured, and the rescue of the Lydemian Archmage Lydia, because of the traitor's betrayal, also failed, and she absconded to the shores of the Black Sea, where she was missing.
Cyrus concentrated his forces on the Neo-Babylonian Empire.
Due to the internal contradictions and weak resistance of the Chaldeans of Neo-Babylon, and the fact that the entire city was covered by the power of the Holy Grail of Death, a holy relic obtained by Cyrus, all the machinery was ineffective, so the Bolunian army captured the city of Babylon without much fighting.
In this way, Cyrus conquered the three great powers of Western Asia, laying the groundwork for even greater conquests.
After the destruction of Neo-Babylon, Cyrus showed respect for the customs of the country and shook hands with the statue of Marduk on the occasion of the New Year, according to the old Babylonian practice, indicating that he was the rightful new king of Babylon.
Cyrus also adopted the ancient title used by the Babylonian Empire, calling himself "King of kings, King of the two rivers, King of Orthodoxy, King of Babylon, King of the Sumerians and Akkadians, King of the Four Corners of the Universe."
Cyrus also freed the Hebrews who had been taken captive to Babylon and sent them back to their homeland of Abyssinia and the Dead Sea provinces to settle down and rebuild the temple.
The enlightened policy increased Cyrus's prestige, and the states of Syria and Asia Minor, which had been subject to Babylon, pledged allegiance to him. Although the Greeks and the Bolunians had fought wars, they considered Cyrus to be "a good ruler and lawgiver".
The ancient Greek chronicler and magician Jerod, who traveled around the moon, recounted that Cyrus was far more famous than his two successors: "Some kings were mere peddlers who cared about profit and loss, and some kings were mere masters who treated the people as slaves, while Cyrus was a loving father and lawgiver."
Cyrus showed mercy and offered all sorts of goods to his subjugated people.
Even the monotheistic Hebrews praised the king of Boyue in their verses: "I have lifted the right hand of Cyrus, anointed by the Lord, and I have brought the nations down before him." And I will loosen the girdles of kings, that the gates of the city may be open before him, and they shall not be closed...... This is what I said to him, 'I will go before you and make the road rough.' I will break the gates of brass and cut off the bars of iron'......" The Old Book of Isaiah
At the same time, in order to consolidate the northeastern frontier of the empire, Cyrus led a large army across the Oxus River, which was occupied by the basilis, and penetrated deep into the steppe areas inhabited by nomads (Masakitai), only to be defeated and severely wounded.
According to legend, it was Masakitay's queen Tomiris who killed him with a curse of inlight, and ordered the search for Cyrus's body on the battlefield, where he cut off his head and placed it in a bag of human blood to deter the tribes who opposed her.
The queen lived for thousands of years and was later confirmed to be a banshee.
After the death of Cyrus, a new king succeeded him as the Twelve Justices of Boyue (the twelve sages of Boyue, who served as the religious elders of Boyue) from the "family of gods". (The 12 justices of Boyue were the 12 strongest of Boyue at that time)
As soon as he ascended to the throne, there were rebellions against the empire in the various regions conquered by Cyrus during his lifetime.
After stabilizing the situation in the country, the new king, Getansinur, decided to conquer the newly independent Egyptians.
With the help of the Phoenicians, he built a navy powered by a magical canvas made from the skin of a special beast, and enlisted the cooperation of the Goliaths of the peninsula.
The king attacked Egypt with his army.
At this time, the Egyptian pharaoh Posamtik III was an incompetent man, and although his army put up a stubborn resistance at the Battle of Peleusiamu and the Siege of Memphis, it was unable to save Egypt from defeat.
And the pharaoh himself not only destroyed the territory he had established during the time of Lacumesis, but also became the sinner who caused the pharaoh's magic to be lost, and the ruler with great magic power finally chose to commit suicide because he did not dare to face the Bolunians.
As the Boyue people said, "The grooms and tax collectors of Egypt are better than him." ”
Three years later, the Boyue army occupied almost all of Egypt and established the Twenty-ninth Dynasty of Egypt (i.e., the Boyue Dynasty).
Cyrene's Greek colony also surrendered to Boyue.
The king triumphantly declared himself Pharaoh, a descendant of Amun, the sun god who ruled Egypt.
He also attempted an expedition against Carthage and the newly founded Hebrew Abyssinia, but news of a coup d'état by the monk Gomoda Upopis came from within the country.
Gomoda had a brother named Mosannu who looked very much like the king's younger brother.
Although the latter had been secretly ordered to be killed by the king, the public did not know about it, so Gao Moda used his brother to pretend to be the prince and support him to ascend the throne.
Wang was furious when he heard the news and planned to immediately return to China to punish Gao Moda.
But when he got on his horse, a raven flew out of the sky, and then a knife fell from the sky and stabbed the king, and the king was wounded, but only slightly, and no one paid much attention to it.
It was a cursed knife under the control of the Demon Monk, which had been stained with Cyrus's blood, causing it to have devastating power over his descendants.
So this wound, which was ignored at the time, was fatal.
About a few days later, the king died, and the body was said to be entirely a skeleton.
At this time, his cronies hurried back with their troops, ready to suppress the rebels and impose the most brutal punishment.
After the coup d'état, Gomoda Upopis implemented a series of reforms in six months, involving land, politics and law, and also advocated a truce with foreign countries, the construction of water conservancy and roads, and the protection of suppressed magicians and merchants.
These measures were welcomed by the people, but the coup d'état itself was seen through by the great nobles of several families in the empire.
Discovering that the self-proclaimed king was not the real prince, they staged a palace coup.
Seven nobles, including the apprentices of the Twelve Justices of Boyue, stormed the palace and entered the inner chambers, killing Gao Moda, who was really casting a spell, and it is also said that they banished him to the other world.
After the successful counter-coup, the seven nobles discussed what form of government to implement in the future.
Four of the seven supported the latter opinion in the three totalities of the rule of the people, the oligarchy and the dictatorship.
In order to elect a dictator, they decided that everyone would meet on horseback on the outskirts of the city at sunrise, and whoever neighed first would be the future king.
The groom of Little Ryuus led his mount to the meeting place the next night and had it mate with a mare there.
The next morning, when the nobles had arrived on horseback as promised, Darius's horse went to the place where they had mated the night before, and suddenly rushed forward and neighed.
His companions immediately jumped off their horses, knelt before him, and congratulated him.
After Xiaorius I came to power, he spent more than a year suppressing uprisings and rebellions in various places, so that the empire on the verge of collapse was consolidated.
He inscribed in detail the suppression of the coup d'état and the ascension of the throne in ancient Aryan, Akkad, and Aelamite scripts on the cliffs of Behisdon near Ecbatana, which is known as the Behisdun Inscription, which also includes the magical and technological texts plundered by the Bolunians from all over the world at that time.
The desire of the Little Ryushi to write down his ascension to the throne led to a major breakthrough in the study of the ancient world 40 centuries later, because just as the Rosetta Stone led to the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs, the Behistown inscriptions played a major role in deciphering the magical cuneiform script used by the ancient Boyue mages.
After stabilizing the domestic situation, Xiaoliushi could not wait to begin his foreign expansion, conquering the Indus Valley in the east, the Western Semimolasian tribes on the northern shore of the Black Sea in the north, many islands in the Aegean Sea in the west, and even crossing the Hellespont Strait, occupying Macedonia and Thrace, and restoring the great empire's martial arts.
At that time, the territory of the Boyue Empire included the northernmost Oghuz steppe, the easternmost mountains, the westernmost rivers, and even the southernmost desert, covering an area of more than 5 million geli, which was more than twice the total area of the Seris Dynasty (seven empires) that fell into the Warring States period.
In this way, from the founding of the Great to the reign of the Xiaorius, it only took a relatively short time for the empire to develop from a tribal state to a transcontinental world empire, completing a process that would take other countries two or three thousand years to complete.
The Korius divided the empire into 20 provinces.
In order to bring the empire into a unified administrative system, he built imperial roads centered on the capital city of Persepolis and his hometown of Susa, connecting the rest of the empire, with a post station every four moons (20 songs).
Although Egypt, Sumer, Babylon, and Seris also had central courts, these states lacked the administrative apparatus of the Empire to speed up communication links, and even in Seris, such institutions emerged only after the Serisian Qin Empire, which "ruled the world" after the Little Lius.
The security of the Imperial Roads is the responsibility of the checkpoints, and the inspectors are the task force of the "General Courtyard of the Undead Army".
In addition to deterring robbers, these checkpoints also allowed the authorities to keep a close eye on travelers on the Empire's main highways.
This examination was so effective that when an exiled Greek from Susa wanted to bring a secret letter to the Ionian city-states that had prompted a revolt against the empire in his homeland, the only way to send the message was to stab it on the shaved scalp of a reliable slave, and when the slave had grown new hair, he was sent out, and the contacts in his homeland were instructed to arrange for him to get a haircut as soon as the slave arrived.
In addition to the construction of the Imperial Road, in order to develop water traffic, the clever Little Liushi ordered the digging of a canal connecting the Nile to the Red Sea, so that ships could sail directly from the Persian month to the Mediterranean.
He also followed the example of his predecessors and again used the Phoenicians to build a powerful navy.
The empire created by the Emperor and the Minor was based not only on military conquest, but also on the enlightened rule of propriety, the coexistence of religions, and the simultaneous development of different laws.
The inhabitants of the conquered territories, whether kings, nobles, or the lower classes, were allowed to exercise relatively liberal national autonomy and enlightened religious tolerance.
Whether it was the Assyrians or the Hebrews, the Egyptians and the Greeks, they were allowed to practice their original religion and allowed the existence of local traditional laws. In addition, Xiaolius unified money and weights and measures.
The military system of the empire was also further refined during the time of the Korius.
The empire was divided into five large military districts, each of which was responsible for the military affairs of several provinces.
The empire implemented a compulsory military service system, and the main body of the army was the Boyue people, and in wartime, men of all nationalities between the ages of 15 and 50 were obliged to join the army to fight.
According to different needs, the imperial army was divided into the Janissaries (to defend the king and the court), the standing army (that is, the imperial defense force, mainly composed of the Boyueans and Medes and Assyrians, which was the garrison force stationed in the strategic points of the empire), the local army (composed of cantonment troops composed of different ethnic groups, mainly responsible for local security, and the senior commanders were also Boyueans), and a special elite army, the "100,000 undead army".
The Imperial Army has a complete range of troops, and implements a two-army system, which is divided into a regular army and an immortal army.
Regular Army: Infantry, cavalry, elephants, charioteers, engineers, and navies.
Undead Army: The Shadow Assassins and the Samurai Praetorian Guard.
All of them were equipped with a variety of advanced weapons at the time.
The standing army system of Boyue is divided into corps, regiments, teams and other formations, each army is 10,000 people, divided into ten regiments, each regiment is divided into ten teams, and each team is divided into ten cards, which are led by the commander of ten thousand, the commander of a thousand, the commander of a centurion and the commander of ten.
After the death of Emperor Xiaoliushi, his son II ascended the throne.
The new emperor consolidated the throne, quelled rebellions in places like Egypt, and then continued the war with Greece (Greece had always been an enemy of the empire).
The Greco-Persian Wars began on the days of the Empire's entry into the Black Sea, and its cause, according to the Greeks, was the support of the Ionian city-states led by Miletus in a counter-imperial rebellion.
After suppressing the rebellious city-states, Xiaolius launched a major offensive against the Greek mainland in order to push the empire's borders beyond the ethnic distribution of the Greeks and avoid a recurrence of foreign seditions.
By the time of Xiaolius' death, the empire had launched three major attacks on Greece.
In the first attack, before the two sides could face each other, the Porchian army retreated due to storms, waves, curses, and Thracian attacks.
The second time, the morale of the Greeks was greatly boosted by the combined forces of the Greeks at Marathon, and the Minor had no choice but to retreat to the empire in Asia Minor.
On the third occasion, the Empire launched its largest expedition, dispatching 5 million amphibious troops and more than 40,000 warships to blitz Greece, and Xiaolius himself once again took the lead in his own accord.
(The Little Warriors used the Magic Imperial Path to solve the extremely large or even impossible supply of the army).
Faced with imperial envoys who demanded water and land, almost all the Greek city-states submitted this time, with the exception of Athens and Sparta.
The Athenians beheaded the imperial envoy, and the Spartans took the Bolun to a well, saying, "There is water and earth here, take as much as you want" and threw it in.
The Empire could not bear it anymore and launched a general attack, and on land, they defeated the Athenian army, captured the city of Athens, and killed a magical archon, Polyx, but were defeated at sea near the island of Thramis by another magical archon, Polyclus, commanding the Athenian combined fleet, and lost their sea dominance.
Fearing that the pontoon bridge over the Hellesponts would be destroyed by Greek warships, Xiaolius ordered to leave a part of his elite troops in Thrace and Macedonia, and that the rest of the army and navy warships should all withdraw to Asia Minor in case of a possible rebellion in the rear.
Subsequently, the Imperial army was again broken at the Battle of Platiagrad and the Battle of Cape Mikal, and the remnants of the Empire's military forces in Greece were forced to withdraw to the Asian continent.
After several years of confrontation after the Battle of Platia, the empire was forced to sign the Peace of Karias with the Athenians, relinquishing control of the Greek city-states along Asia Minor.
After that, the empire clashed with the Greek city-states on an effective scale, but there were no major wars on the whole.
During the Peloponnesian War within the Greek city-states, the empire tried to weaken Athens by supporting Sparta.
After the end of the Greek Civil War, the Spartans became the new overlords of the Greek city-states and supported the royal family member Cyrus the Younger in his struggle for the throne.
After the defeat of Cyrus the Younger, Sparta sent troops to attack the Empire, so the Empire supported Athens against Sparta in the Corinthian War.
After fifteen years of war, the Empire and the Greek city-states signed the Peace Treaty of His Majesty the Emperor, and the Empire regained control of the Greek city-states in Asia Minor.
For the next fifty years, the empire remained largely free from conflict with Greece until the Macedonian conqueror Aristotle the Great invaded eastward.
After the rise of Macedonia, Aristotle, after consolidating his rule over Greece, crossed the Hellespont with 300,000 infantry and 50,000 cavalry, and eliminated the army organized by Emperor Xiaorius III in the western provinces at the Battle of Issus.
The prestige of the Little Warriors was devastated, as the monarch fled the battlefield. (The tone of the Macedonian historian)
At the Battle of Gaulamica, the Emperor wiped out the Emperor's army organized in the eastern provinces, and Darius III once again left his army behind and fled. (The irresponsible framing of the historian was also condemned by the emperor himself)
The Macedonians occupied Babylon, Pasargad, and Persepolis almost without resistance.
Like a Goliath barbarian, the Emperor set fire to the capital, which was the essence of ancient world architecture, and washed the entire city in blood.
"If you are born, how can you be born?" complained to Aristotle the Great in a letter from Julius Serious III.
"If you tell you that there is such an emperor, at the beginning of the throne eunuchs in power, the people are not happy, the territory is lost, the country is worried about internal and external troubles, after ascending the throne, in a short period of time, get rid of the eunuchs, appoint virtuous ministers, recover the lost land, and prepare to make great efforts, but because the stall is too bad, coupled with the invasion of external strong enemies, the country is finally broken and died, then he must be called Xiaolius III. —Romans, Caesar.
Xiaorius III, and the Boyue Emperor who shared the same name as Xiaorius.
He has always been suspicious, but this does not deny his detached ability and courage.
Xiaolius III succeeded to the throne in the spring, and he inherited a veritable mess.
At this time, the empire was troubled internally and externally, the great eunuch Bagua controlled the government, and India and Egypt had become independent one after another.
Shortly after his accession to the throne, Xiaorius defeated Bagua, and then conquered the already independent Egypt in just a few months, demonstrating extraordinary strategy and courage.
According to Roman records, Xiaorius was a great warrior of the moon before he succeeded to the throne.
When he was still a prince, he followed his father to fight against the rebellion, and when the two armies faced each other, the enemy came out with one of the best samurai, and someone recognized him, one of the top martial saints of Boyue.
The Martial Saint asked the same nobleman to be killed by a single horse in front of the formation.
Dozens of nobles around the king were immediately frightened, and in the end, it was the little ryu who came out to fight, and the king drank a glass of wine on his horse, and the little ryu killed the other party in the middle of the wine.
Wang Dayue immediately made him the governor of Armenia.
At the end of the empire, the great eunuch Bagua controlled the government, and Xiaoliushi, as an important minister, gradually gained Bagua's trust.
Later, Bagua colluded with the Romans to kill the royal family, and the royal family of the empire withered, and the succession to the throne fell to the side branch of Xiaoliushi III (his paternal line was not a royal family).
In the spring, Xiaoliushi ascended the throne and was called III, and he had a typical Boyue man with a high-nosed and deep-eyed and water-chestnut face without losing his femininity, and a slender body like a Greek hero.
Not long after his reign, Bagua found him difficult to control, so he planned to repeat his old trick, prepared him with a cup of poisoned wine, and tried to kill him.
The little Liushi, who had already seen Bagua's conspiracy, reversed his wine glass with Bagua's, smiled indifferently, and then forced him to drink it all, and the eunuch was there
The empire inherited by Xiaorius had been decadent for a long time, and Egypt, one of the empire's main grain-producing regions, had been independent for many years.
Soon after his accession to the throne, Xiaolius organized a conquest of Egypt.
It took him only a month to assemble an elite army of hundreds of thousands of people, and as a result, Egypt was leveled in one fell swoop, and the empire was shocked.
The twenty-three-year-old was in the prime of life, determined to forge ahead, and showed extraordinary courage and courage in domestic and foreign affairs, and was undoubtedly the long-awaited master of the empire.
However, just a few months after the accession of Xiaorius, a young man of twenty years old ascended to the throne in the kingdom of Macedonia in the northern part of the distant Greek peninsula.
This young man named Aristotle would eventually overthrow the imperial society of Little Liuus and undo his ambitions.
Three theatrical plays bear witness to the fall of the empire.
The first, the Battle of the Granicus River, was commanded by one of his governors, Satotan, and the two sides were almost equal in strength, with 350,000 Macedonian soldiers versus 400,000 imperial troops.
On the Macedonian side, the soldiers were well-trained, and the emperor's command wisdom and courage alone were enough to inspire the Macedonians, while on the imperial side, the governor was afraid of death, and the soldiers were too low in rank and not enough in battle.
In the end, of course, the Macedonians won, and the emperor came out on top.
Angry at this, the little ryushi shouted, "Satotan, return my legion." ”
In the second, the Battle of Issus, Xiaorius was again overshadowed.
Summing up the Battle of Issus, the battle command of Xiaoliushi was almost impeccable, and the strategic layout and tactical arrangement were remarkable.
Placing his elite troops on the right flank, he expected the Imperial Ironclad cavalry to break through here and flank to attack the Macedonian Phalanx.
If it weren't for the Emperor's targeted deployment of counterattack forces, the Imperial Iron Cavalry would have easily accomplished the objectives of the campaign.
The tactical intent of the little rius in the middle was very clear, that is, to induce the Macedonian phalanx to cross the river and attack, and use the terrain to disrupt the formation of the Macedonian phalanx, so that the mercenaries from Goliath (the Goliaths also rebelled against the Macedonians) could avoid the dense spears of the Macedonian infantry and take advantage of the gap in the enemy formation to approach the fight.
This tactical arrangement had already worked, when the Macedonian Phalanx was infiltrated in many places by Goliath mercenaries, and it was in danger, and if the left Imperial infantry held out longer, the Macedonian Phalanx would collapse.
Many years later, the Roman legions used the same tactics to defeat the Macedonian army twice and establish hegemony in the eastern Mediterranean.
The task of the Left Wing Army Front was very simple: to delay the attack of the Macedonian Guards cavalry as much as possible and to buy time for the rest of the Imperial Army to break through the enemy on the center and right flanks.
The Macedonian historian's criticism of Darius's arrangement of troops was mainly focused on the arrangement of the left front.
They believed that Xiaorius should deploy Higolia mercenaries on both the left flank and the central front of Boyue, ignoring his political limitations.
Xiaoliushi placed the Goliath mercenaries in the middle of the lane and entrusted him with a heavy task, presumably under great pressure from the nobles of the Empire, and if he did not give the Imperial infantry troops a chance to participate in the battle, he would definitely lose the support of the nobles.
After the defeat at the Battle of Issus, the Minor did not give up control of the situation while fleeing for his life.
Even the classical Macedonian texts record that part of the Pochronian cavalry retreating from the battlefield of Issus did not return to Babylon, but retreated to Asia Minor, where guerrilla warfare was waged behind enemy lines.
It is almost certain that this strategic move by the Bolun Cavalry was entirely at the behest of the Creus.
These cavalry caused great problems for the logistical supply of the Macedonian army, and after holding out for more than a year, they were annihilated by the Macedonian general Anragons, who was stationed in Asia Minor.
The main reason for the crushing defeat of the army in the Battle of Issus was that the rank and quality of the troops were too far behind the Macedonian army, and the gap in rank was irreparable.
The Macedonians have the most powerful magic training cheats, while the Boyuens don't.
As the main result of the Imperial Military Demonic Reform, the Kardak Academy still cultivated strong men who could not be compared with the Macedonians.
The premature collapse of the Imperial Left Front made the battle conception of Xiaoliushi come to naught.
The individual combat capabilities of the imperial cavalry were not inferior to the Macedonian Tessali cavalry, and the only difference was in organizational discipline.
In addition, the Imperial army actually lacks magic and martial arts coordination, although the equipment of the Imperial army is far superior to that of its opponents, they do not lack magic equipment and all alchemical weapons, and even have giant airships that have been lost in later generations.
After the samurai cavalry opened up the situation, they could not get the support of the demon infantry, and they could not consolidate the results of the battle, which was also one of the reasons for the defeat.
It can be seen that the improvement of weapons and equipment cannot make up for the gap in level strength, and the powerful flying fleet of the empire was wiped out by the Macedonian powerhouse alone.
As for the escape of the little ryushi, it was understandable under the circumstances of the time.
After the collapse of the left front of the empire, the defeat was assured, and Xiaoliushi was besieged by the Macedonian cavalry, and he remained on the battlefield for fear of more than luck.
For an emperor, the empire's war resources are inexhaustible, and as long as he saves a life, he has a chance to make a comeback.
In fact, the spirit of the little rrius did not fail, and when he returned to Babylon, he trained his army day by day, gathering food and forage, and preparing for revenge, without wasting a day.
Having carefully studied the reasons for the defeat and studying the tactics of Macedonia, recognizing the disparity in strength, he improved the confinement of the Academy of Magic and began to recruit magicians into the army.
He reassembled an even larger army, one of the most powerful million-strong soldiers in the history of Boyue, a combination of magic and samurai, and took the initiative to attack.
Two years later, the two emperors reunited in Gaugamela, their eyes met each other, and the emperor was also amazed that his spirit was still full of the fierceness and unwillingness of the Boyue people: "You are indeed my opponent. ”
The danger faced by Aristotle the Great was no less than that of the Battle of Issus, but in the face of the true son of the plane of the pride of the sky, Xiaoliushi finally died with great reluctance.
In that battle, Aristotle the Great almost lost, but in the end, he was judged to be indomitable, and he finally completely crushed all of the efforts of the little rius.
The Emperor's victories seemed to never end, and perhaps in the face of the true pride of the heavens, all efforts were colossal, and the empire perished, and the mighty empire was destroyed by the Macedonians, who had been a barbarian tribe a few decades ago, and was ended along with Greece.
For a long time, the Boyue people had to endure foreign enslavement, but fortunately Aristotle the Great was not a murderer.
Except for the rebels, all the people are equal in the territory under his rule.
The death of Xiaolius was the most tragic of all, he was killed by a sneak attack by the men beside him, the cursed demon knife stained with the blood of Cyrus, the leader of the "House of the Gods".
Eventually, Aristotle found him dying in the desert and gave him a jug of water, which he drank with pleasure, and then looked straight at the man who had defeated him, and finally ······
Before he died, Xiaoliushi said: "What a pity that I have received favor from others and cannot repay him! After that, he closed his eyes permanently.
Stunned for a long time, Aristotle finally buried his body ceremoniously, and finally found his killer servant guards and executed him according to the laws of the Bolunians.
Rise and fall, but for a short time.
Aristotle also died, and Macedonia perished.
The Romans rose up and conquered Greece and the entire Carthage region.
The Boyue people worked as slaves and gladiatorial warriors, but eventually reversed their fate, and under the leadership of Standu, who was called "the founder of the new Boyue Dynasty" and "the revivalist", and called himself a descendant of the Xiaorius, he restored the community of the Boyue people.
And he married the daughter of Aristotle's descendants, the princess of Macedonia, a woman surnamed Astria.
The Boyue and Romans discovered each other at the same time......
In a more recent era, a brutal Goliath named Lydila unified the peninsula for the first time, divided the city lords, and established a united tribal kingdom, and his descendants have since been the spiritual leaders of Goliath, equivalent to royalty.
But after that, the peninsula was divided again, but the spiritual leader was preserved.
Later, a Goliath named Abivi used religion and force to dominate the peninsula and continued to support the spiritual leader, His Majesty the Emperor of the Goliaths.
However, the Lydilar descendant who served as the spiritual leader was a woman (at this time, there were only two women in Goliath who had the blood of the Lydilian royal family, one was elected as the spiritual leader, and the other was a commoner), so Abivi had to inherit a prince from Goliath's most prestigious clan to become the consort of the female emperor.
Originally, everyone supported Abiwei marrying the emperor and replacing him himself, but Abiwei firmly disagreed, and he told the people that he could only be the consul of the republic, and would never be the emperor of the empire.
In fact, he was unwilling to marry the emperor at all, and he always cared about a woman from Boyue in his heart......
In the end, Abiwei still married the emperor, but only nominally, because the emperor never conceived......
In the end, after the death of the emperor, in the face of the almost extinction of Goliath's royal family, Goliath was about to fall into a state of ownerlessness (on a spiritual level), and Abiwei treated the absolute fanaticism for the emperor with supreme faith, but the republic could not live without the emperor, so, in the face of everyone's unanimous request: "Abiwei is king", Abiwei himself was not enthusiastic.
Later, after he had laid down the entire wave of the moon, he became even less enthusiastic and looked sad all day long......
At the suggestion of the East India Company, Abiway decided to look for the emperor from several large clans, not knowing that his life was coming to an end......
Before his death, Abiwei made a final decision: he appointed Taksime as the next archon, who would remain in power for twelve years, and if he died halfway, a new one would be elected by the parliament.
Abiwei eventually died on the shore of the Black Sea of Boyue, according to legend, he was stabbed and killed by the female assassin of Boyue, and it is also said that he died of illness, and the reason why he went to the Black Sea was because he wanted to wait quietly for death to come, and there is even a theory that Abiwei found a door through another world......
After Abiwei's death, a civil war broke out in Goliath......
Ultimately......
After a period of civil war and compromise, the Goliath nobles made a decision: a new king would be elected from among the eight largest clan nobles, and the law would require the parliament to elect him, and of course the law could force him to ascend the throne by fighting a civil war, but whoever became king must marry a commoner woman with royal blood to ensure that the sacred royal blood would never die.
Eventually, a new emperor was born, but the actual power was still in the hands of the archon, who combined the powers of consuls, military judges, and tribunes......
"Aristocratic Republic", "Eternal in the veins of one line", "Free and universal". is the maxim of the republic.
The "aristocratic republic" is to adhere to the aristocratic republic system, "all eternity is in one lineage", and the emperor's bloodline will never perish, and "freedom and universality" means that the republic must always adhere to the concept of freedom and the concept of the Roman universal empire, and all people should be equal in the country.
There is an emperor in the republic, and the emperor has unlimited authority, but the emperor is not a de jure ruler after all, and has no real power, and is always in a state of near captivity until ...... The appearance of a "fool".
In the era of the Republic, there was a prophecy that "when all the seas except Far East Asia will be ruled by my kingdom, in this kingdom a new age of kingship will come, and an empire will be born in the will of the sword-bearer." ”
"There was a fool named Sura Abi who thought that was him...... He turned out to be wrong, but he strengthened the power of the emperor. ”
As a child, Nishizawa was sent to live with the emperor in the palace because of the destruction of his family, the little empress once told him.
Yes, as a result of that civil war, the authority of the parliament fell, and the emperor had the power to appoint colonial governors.
The colonial governors were not bound by parliament and owed direct allegiance to the emperor.
Times are unpredictable, and today, in the republic established by Abidwe, new changes are being bred.
