Chapter 31: A hand down
Western Xiang Yu?
The translator told Mosley Massa what Pei Min had said, and the two looked at each other.
In the ancient history of the West, there are three famous generals, namely Alexander the Great, Hannibal, and Julius Caesar, whose status is like Sun Wu, Wu Qi, Han Xin, and Bai Qi in Chinese history, and they belong to the figures with extraordinary military talents.
To be able to get the same reputation as them is the highest honor.
Although there is a small print, it does not hinder the gold content of the title "Little Hannibal".
Mosley Massa is still extremely satisfied with this reputation, and even a little complacent. This can be compared with the best commanders in ancient times, and it is also an affirmation of his ability.
But don't you want Hannibal to have a Western Xiang Yu title in the East?
As soon as he opened his mouth to count Xiang Yu, Pei Min said that Hannibal was Xiang Yu of the West, wouldn't he slap himself in the face?
He alluded to the fact that there are countless people in the West who are better than Xiang Yu, doesn't he say that there are countless people in the West who are better than him?
The translator couldn't help but say: "How can Xiang Yu be compared to the hero of Carthage, Hannibal?" ”
"Only the ignorant can slander the sages!" Pei Min said unceremoniously: "Hannibal is a famous Carthaginian general in the West, and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu in the East, was born in the same era, and the two have great similarities: they are both sons of generals, both are tactical geniuses, and they are both burdened with national hatred and family hatred. When Xiang Yu was young, he made a bold promise to replace Qin. When Hannibal was nine years old, he also swore an oath at the altar that he would not be at odds with Rome. ”
Both of them are young heroes, and they are military commanders in their twenties with heavy troops. In order to inflict heavy losses on Rome, Hannibal boldly crossed the Alps, rushed thousands of miles, and traveled along the south bank of Gaul to the Ronny River. Almost at the same time, Xiang Yu broke through the cauldron and used the same strategy to fight the Qin army in Julu, besiege the main force of the Qin army, Wang Li's legion, and defeat the Qin army in nine battles. ”
"Hannibal had the glorious Battle of Lake Trasimeno and the Battle of Cannae, while Xiang Yu also had the Battle of Julu, the Battle of Pengcheng. It is also strange to say that the two are in the same era, thousands of miles apart, but the tactics and playing styles used are extremely similar. They are all good at long-distance attacks, good at winning more with less, good at fighting hard battles, good at counter-encircling many times their own army with weak forces, and achieve the greatest results. ”
The two of them crisscrossed Rome one by one, breaking the myth of the invincibility of the Roman Empire, and almost every Romans wore linen and filial piety. One rampaged through the Central Plains, broke the Qin and attacked the Han, and was invincible. They are all the same invincible, the same terrifying opponents. The most regrettable thing is that even in the end, they are almost the same. In the Battle of Zama, Hannibal was defeated, and since then, the invincible commander has lost his fighting spirit and withdrawn from the military arena. And Xiang Yu is the same, in the next battle, the Chu army was defeated. Xiang Yu was speechless in the face of Jiangdong's father and elders, and killed himself in Wujiang. How similar are the two amazing military commanders, who moved the world with a hundred victories, but dissipated with a defeat. ”
There was silence in the Chengqian Hall for a while, looking at Pei Min, who was talking loudly, and Pei Min, who knew everything about Eastern and Western cultures, there was a sense of shock and speechlessness.
Tubo's vice-minister Long Langchi had already seen Pei Min's erudition, and when he was bargaining, he talked about the cultural history of Tubo like a few treasures.
Today, history seems to repeat itself!
Long Langchi couldn't help but say in his heart: "Such a character, if you give birth to me Tubo, how good it would be!" ”
Mosley Massa listened to the translator, translating word by word, and his face was also confused.
Although he called him Little Hannibal, but if he wanted him to be like Pei Min, he told Hannibal's experience and achievements like a treasure, he asked himself if he could do it, looked at the indifferent Pei Min, and even doubted: Who is a Westerner in the end!
Pei Min said: "The so-called king is not a tyrant, and he will not be able to be Li." Two excellent figures, one east and one west coexist in the world, and the overlord Xiang Yu talks about his achievements, which are only better than Hannibal, but all of them. Why can't it be compared? ”
The translator was so stumbling that he couldn't say a word.
Pei Min smiled comfortingly: "You don't understand our oriental culture, and it is natural to have this misunderstanding." I just hope that the noble envoy and the Duke of Remassa will pay a little attention to the cultural differences between the two countries when he speaks. The ancestors are used to pay respects, not to joke and slander. I respect Hannibal, the invincible commander of the West, and I hope you can also respect Xiang Yu, the overlord on our side. ”
Mosley Massa listened to Pei Min's reasonable request, and didn't want to lose his Arab bearing in front of the public, so he apologized and said: "I don't know about Xiang Yu's deeds, and I'm rude." ”
Pei Min said with a smile: "It's not strange if you don't know, the overlord Xiang Yu has always admired him." Listening to Duke Remassa's words of disrespect to the overlord, he was angry in his heart, and he hoped that it was no wonder. The courage of the overlord lies in his courage to pull out mountains and rivers with one enemy and one hundred, and more importantly, because he can match the strategy of thousands of troops, rather than a big guy who has extraordinary strength and looks scary, but he can't go to the battlefield, can't kill the enemy, and doesn't have any real bravery. ”
The translator truthfully told Pei Min's words to Mosley Massa.
When Mosley Massa heard that his heart was not good, he instantly understood Pei Min's intentions.
Before he could speak, he heard the giant man roar "tear it", and forcibly tore the tiger skin on his body, revealing the terrifying upper body: under the cover of the tiger skin were muscles like steel plates, and the protruding eight-pack abs seemed to show no signs of fat and softness in his body.
The most eye-catching thing is the scar, there are almost no intact places on his body, there are all kinds of swords, guns and arrow wounds all over the body, and there are even traces of the bite claws of wild beasts, there are no less than two hundred places in detail, which is extremely terrifying.
Especially at this moment, he roared, the strength of his whole body gathered, the whole person inexplicably expanded, and the meridians of his whole body bulged, giving people the illusion of breaking out of the body.
He pointed to the scars on his body and roared at Pei Min.
Mosley Massa glared at the translator angrily, and looked at Pei Min with some fear.
The translator did not dare to say any more.
Pei Min turned his gaze to the Byzantine governor Stini on the side, and the giant man roared not in Arabic, but in Greek. Judging by the color of his skin, this giant man was not an orthodox Arab.
Justinian smiled knowingly and said a word to the translator beside him. For the Arabs, he was enthusiastic about the matter.
The Byzantine interpreter said: "This giant man is called Ahan by the Negrons, and he was raised by orangutans, and he has a terrifying brute force, capable of tearing apart tigers and leopards. He was also particularly brave on the battlefield, and he said that when he killed the enemy on the battlefield, Guogong was still breastfeeding. The scar is a man's medal, a symbol of a warrior, and he can put you down with one hand. ”
