Chapter 173: Troy 3 - A Thousand Years of Lies

At the end of the hall was Priam, the king of Troy, who was quietly looking at his unfavored child, thinking of a dream that his queen had had had before giving birth to her. In that dream, the birth of the child turned the royal palace of Troy into a sea of fire, so the child was thrown out and left to fend for itself. Now, the poor boy Paris has finally brought the calamity to the peaceful and prosperous place of Troy.

Priam closed his eyes, leaned on his back on the throne, and said weakly, "For many years, the existence of our Troy has made the Greek countries like a stalk, and they have long wanted to get rid of us, but they have no excuse... ”

"And now," Priam's voice grew suddenly, and he pointed at Paris and shouted, "You! You stupid fellow, for the sake of a woman, pushed us Troy into the abyss from which we will never recover! Do you know that the Greek kingdoms, which were originally separate, have now formed a coalition of 100,000 troops, and in the name of saving this woman, they are already on the way to defeat my Troy! For the sake of a woman, you will ignore my Trojan people, and destroy my Trojan inheritance for a hundred years! ”

At this time, Paris already knew that he had caused a big disaster, but he was a young man who was unwilling to admit his mistake in front of the woman he liked, so he could only stiffen his neck and say, "My Troy is located on the top of the mountain, the city is high and the wall is thick, although it is a traffic artery, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as my Trojan people are united, even if there are 100,000 coalition troops, we can also deal with it." Father, the son is willing to lead the army and personally resist the exploits of the Greek coalition, please rest assured that the son will not live up to his mission and will definitely kill the enemy army in the future... ”

Before Paris could finish speaking, an enraged Priam threw a piece of jade at him, and Paris looked at his furious father, and then at the jade on the ground, which was one of the treasures he had looted from the Spartan palace.

"You stupid pig, even this situation and that ridiculous little trick can turn you around, with your little ability, you still want to command the army? Even if I send a pig to defend the city, I will be countless times stronger than you! Get out, get out of here, take this woman and give me as far as you want! "The furious Priam is already surprisingly angry, he no longer wants to see this son who is destined to bring him disaster, you don't want to see Helen that woman, although Helen is indeed beautiful, but compared to his own kingdom, you woman is a fart! He also had the idea of sending this woman back to Sparta, but then vetoed it, in that case, not only would it not play any role in easing the situation, but it would also make the Greek countries look down on them Troy, and it would make Troy's morale plummet, and when the time comes, they will find an excuse to make themselves completely uncontrollable.

Taking a deep breath, Priam calmed down, and then one after another orders were passed out, and the soldiers of Troy began to prepare all kinds of tools for defending the city in an orderly manner, with the help of a rich family foundation, Troy was fully prepared in a very short period of time, a large amount of food can be eaten by Troy for more than ten years, and all kinds of grease and stones are placed on the head of the city, and the well-prepared Troy will naturally let the invading enemy take advantage of it.

Sure enough, when the 100,000 Greek coalition troops from afar had just been stationed outside the city of Troy, the tired coalition army had not had time to rest, and was raided by the Trojan soldiers, and after finally stabilizing their position, the Trojan soldiers returned to the city, and after repeating this several times, the leader of the coalition army, Agamemnon, was tired of coping, and it took more than two months to completely stabilize, and then the continuous logistics supplies were sent to the coalition camp with a large number of ships, which gave the coalition army the opportunity to launch a decent siege war.

The Trojan soldiers who had created a strong battle gave the coalition army a head-on blow, and after losing thousands of lives, Agamemnon retreated, and then began to besiege the city according to the original agreed method, trying to trap Troy to death in this way.

。。。

On this day, Hongjun and Shennong were sitting on a cliff outside the city of Troy drinking each other, the waves of the Aegean Sea were lapping on the mountain rocks that had been washed for thousands of years, the air was a little moist, and the warm sun was shining under their feet.

"Your Excellency, this Troy. . . Is it really going to be another three years? ”

Hongjun put down the cup in his hand, looked at the women playing in the distance with a smile, and then turned his head to look at the Shennong clan and said, "You are also a person who has experienced many battle formations, tell me, the advantages and disadvantages of their tactics?" ”

Shennong lowered his head and pondered for a while, and said slowly, "The terrain here is steep, but it is at the key point of transportation, for thousands of years, countless people have set foot on this land, the first thing that needs to be conquered is this Troy City, as long as this forward base is occupied, it is a nail in the coffin on this peninsula, and it is only a matter of time to conquer the entire peninsula."

"It's just that now ... The Greek Alliance Army is already in its seventh year, and the first few years are more stupid, just staring at the city in front of them, and it is better to be behind, knowing that it is too late to occupy the nearby cities to cut off the supply lines of Troy City, and now Troy is afraid that a large amount of food and equipment has already been stored and attacked? Not a good idea."

"The war is just a continuation of politics, in fact, in the past seven years, the Greek Federation has made huge profits for traders, which Troy does not occupy. It is no longer the focus of this war, in fact, at the political level, the Greek Federation has won and achieved the goal of monopolizing trade, except... The excuse for sending troops at the beginning - Helen, after so many years, the young Queen Helen is afraid that she has become Aunt Helen."

"Hehehehehe" Hongjun was also a little can't help laughing, "Yes, blaming the war between the two countries on a woman's elopement is indeed nonsense, the same thing... It's about to happen again ... ”

Shennong's eyelids jumped a few times, and he really quickly pulled the topic away and said.

"Your Excellency, did the Greek coalition really rely on that Trojan horse to capture the city of Troy in the end?"

Hongjun was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "Do you believe it?" If you were a general in command of the army, would you have this kind of commotion? ”

Shennong's face was slightly red, and he lowered his head and answered.

"In fact, my subordinates didn't understand it at first, this Greek coalition army will bring half of its troops back to harvest crops every year when the grain harvest comes, and I didn't see the Trojans go out of the city to attack at that time."

"And... At that time, even if the Greek coalition army retreated, there was no reason for the Trojans to be in such a hurry to transport a Trojan horse into the city, even if it was a few days to completely confirm the news of the Greeks' withdrawal before going out to seize the booty, even if there were soldiers hidden in the Trojan horse, what could they do in the night? Is it true that this defender eats dry food? You must know that these are the elite soldiers who have been defending the city for nearly ten years! ”

"And finally this sentence ... After the city gate was opened, the Greek soldiers who were hiding outside swarmed in, which is really ridiculous, how can so many people hide on this seaside? Could it be that a god blessed them and inflicted group stealth on them? Is there is ridiculousness! ”

Hongjun nodded with satisfaction and said, "Yes, the Greeks have no strength to attack and can only besiege the city, while the Trojans are inferior in battle, there is no problem in defending the city, and there are indeed not enough troops to go out of the city to kill the enemy." A so-called Trojan horse alone cannot change the situation in front of you. But ... If it were you, you had been besieging the city for seven years, and even the stupidest generals would have begun to think about other ways to break the current stalemate, and guess what method Agamemnon would use to pry open the turtle shell of Troy? ”

In the end, Shennong's clan was the overlord of the former party, and as soon as Hongjun's words fell, he said, "Authentic!" ”

"Most of the soldiers feint, a small number of soldiers find a hidden place to start digging, in a few years, I am afraid that five or six tunnels leading directly to the city will be dug out!"

"Yes, ten years ago! No matter how stupid a person is, he knows that digging a few tunnels is much more secure than a Trojan horse, after all, there are too many unpredictable uses of that Trojan horse, and it is a bit of a child's play to pin the life and death of tens of thousands of troops on a wooden toy? Hongjun had already stood up at this time, standing on the cliff with his hands in his hands.

Shennong also followed behind Hongjun's side and said, "Compared with the Trojans, who only know how to defend, the Greek coalition army has too many options to use, there is no need to choose a very risky method, only digging tunnels is logical." ”

"Well, there are a lot of logical ones, but the authentic is indeed the safest option, I believe... Agamemnon has already begun to work ... ”

"But Your Excellency, why is there a Trojan horse in later accounts?" Shennong was still a little puzzled.

"The balance of power between the two sides is no longer balanced, the strength of the Greek states has far surpassed that of Troy, and no matter what way it is used, it is always the Greek coalition that will win in the end. It has always been written by the winner, and this point will also be staged in Huaxia in a few days, so you can watch it carefully. ”

Just when the two were discussing the situation, in the camp of the Greek coalition army, Agamemnon had indeed begun to be anxious, as the commander of the coalition army, he may have achieved his goal at the political level, but for himself, it was a little uncomfortable. After all, the purpose of sending troops was to save his younger sister Queen Helen, and now seven years have passed, and all the Greek countries are busy with the textile trade to make a lot of money, and he has been imprisoned on this battlefield, and the remote command over the years has begun to make those ambitious subordinates a little unusual, and even he has received a secret report, and his queen has begun to have a disagreement with himself. Agamemnon needed a great victory to increase his popularity, only in this way could he turn things around and regain power after returning home, otherwise even if he made more money, he would have nothing to do with himself at that time, wouldn't he have made a wedding dress for others?
