Hercules silently walked to Antigonus's side, and the hero who was still fighting and fighting desperately just now was already dead and couldn't die anymore, his eyes were round, obviously very shocked and unwilling. Many of the soldiers around www.biquge.info hadn't reacted yet, some were sobbing, some were kneeling next to the corpses silently, and more were stunned on the spot.

After a long time, Hercules shouted to the soldiers of the Antigonus army with different expressions: "Your lord is dead, the right wing has collapsed, I think there is no point in fighting any longer, everyone is Macedonian, lay down your arms, His Majesty the King is benevolent and righteous, it will not be difficult for everyone." ”

"The general is dead, we have to avenge him! It was you, you who killed him! One soldier shouted indignantly.

In order to prevent this soldier's emotions from affecting the other soldiers, making them hate the same enemy and make a dying resistance, before the other soldiers could say anything, Hercules suddenly raised his voice and said: "This battle is the battle between the king and Antigonus, not the war of annihilation, you don't need to be so extreme, there is no hatred between us, it is also Antigonus's refusal to give up his ambition to dominate that has led to today's result, the winner is the king, the loser is the villain, since we lose, we must afford to lose, if we lose, we can only give up." , I believe that General Antigonus also thought so. Don't forget that we are all Macedonians, and Antigonus' death means that the Macedonian royal family of Ajid will ********, and under the leadership of King Alexander, we will continue the glory that the Great brought to Macedonia. I am sure that General Antigonus must have hoped that your faithful men would return to His Majesty's command, rather than die for him. Do you know the wishes of General Antigonus? In Pergamum, he told me that if the Emperor was still there, he would definitely guard Phrygia for the Emperor, and would never think of anything wrong, but as soon as the Emperor left, the country was torn apart, and the generals divided the empire one by one. Originally, he was only the governor of Phrygia, and he had not followed the emperor for many years, but he did not fight with others, so he wanted to take up the mission of reuniting the Macedonian Empire, and he was confident in his ability. Now he is fighting against the king because His Majesty's prestige is still shallow and he is unwilling to work hard for many years, which I believe can be understood by everyone, just as I understand you now. ”

Hercules's speech was subdued, passionate, and infectious, and finally he lowered his voice and said: "So I still say the same thing, the blood of the Macedonians has been shed too much, and it was okay to follow the first emperor to fight the world in the past, and after the death of the first emperor, the princes rose around, and the king was like a puppet, and people's hearts were moved. Now that Your Majesty is wise and martial, and has the style of a father, there is no need for us to fight in the same room anymore, so that it will not be beneficial to anyone except to lose both. Listen to me lay down my arms, and His Majesty will never ask you to blame. ”

You look at me, I look at you, and after a while, one of them dropped their weapons, the first one and the second, and then they all laid down their weapons like a domino effect.

"Long live the King! Long live the King! Long live the king......" Hercules shouted, shouting and shouting as everyone shouted.

Antigonus Left Wing

"General be careful!" A soldier shouted at Philip. Archidamus stabbed Dmitry's mount to death, and with the sound of a horse's wail, the horse fell, and as prepared, Philip rolled on a lazy donkey, and soon stood up and brandished his sword at Archidamus.

"Good job, take me a shot!" Archidamus said excitedly.

However, soon the gun in his hand was cut off by the opponent's sword, so he drew his sword and swung it to kill. The weapons intersected and made a "bell" sound, and the two swords collided, and Philip asked sharply, "Why!" Why the defection? Are you Spartans so vile and shameless? ”

"Phew! We are not so shameless as you to lead an army against our own king. Hmph, you forgot, if it weren't for your Lao Tzu and that brother of yours, Sparta might have been able to regain its prestige back then, and it wouldn't be as miserable as it was later. Now Polybecon has promised my father that if we win this victory, we Spartans will be independent forever. ”

"Independence! You're so sure he's not lying to you. ”

"No matter what, it's better than now, but Polybocon and our Sparta are old friends, and I have heard of this little king now, I believe in my father's choice, not to mention that since he has already chosen, there is no turning back."

"Humph! Nicely said, I think if we win this time, you'll probably be waving like a dog instead of saying nothing, right? Philip said dismissively.

Originally, the order given to him by Archidamus's father, Odamidas I, was to make the right choice according to the development of the situation, and the decision was very unclear and clear, nothing more than to follow in the footsteps of the successful, and to put it mildly, it was a shame for the Spartans, who were known for their bravery, but they had to do it for the development of Sparta. Seeing that the other party saw through his own tricks, Archidamus became angry, and the two fought again. Philip of Sven on the outside has a lot of force, and there are people harassing him from time to time, so that Archidamus can't kill the other party in a short time.

"Major General, it's not good! Major General! One of the soldiers shouted and galloped behind Dmitry's line.

"What's wrong?" Dmitry played with a spear and turned his horse's head and took a few steps back.

"General—Dead in battle!" After saying that, the soldier howled and cried.

"Phew!" The weapon in Dmitry's hand fell to the ground.

"What do you say, father, father—no—no—no—" Dmitry lost control of his emotions and squeezed outside on his horse, galloping in the direction of the Chinese army. The commander died in battle, the commander slipped away, and the soldiers lost their fighting spirit and were beaten back one after another.

"It's over, it's over, it's all over." Philip's face turned pale when he heard the bad news, and he was embarrassed by the fact that his helmet was cut off by Archidamus. Knowing that things could not be violated, he did not dare to fall in love with the war and ordered the entire line to retreat.

The so-called defeat was like a mountain, and Philip ordered that almost the entire line was routed, but the infantry of Eupolemus's friends was still supporting it. He knew that he couldn't go, he wanted to go, and no one would be left behind, and in the end, no one would be able to go.

"Pass my order, each phalanx will send half of the people to block the enemy's infantry, and a part to block the enemy's cavalry, quick!" Opolemus commanded.

"General, in this case, we will collapse faster!" A centurion exclaimed in surprise.

"I can't care so much, otherwise even our cavalry won't be able to escape. We are infantry, we can't escape, even if we are all here today, we have to cover General Philip's retreat. ”

"Yes!"

"My lord, my subordinates can only repay your kindness in this way." Eupolemus said silently in his heart, not to Philip or Cassander, but to the former regent Antipater.

In front of the Chinese army, Dmitry lay on his stomach and wept over Antigonus's body, which had been placed on a stretcher, covered with a cloak, and simply cleaned up. Dmitry had lost all other mental consciousness and was completely immersed in the grief of losing his father. He completely ignored that he was already surrounded by Alexander's people. For him, it is no longer important to dominate the world, he only hopes that his father can come back to life, even if he lives in seclusion and does not ask about the world, it is something he can't ask for, even if he changes his life for a life, he will not hesitate to choose.

"Everything in the world, in fact, is already destined by heaven. I know you can't take it for a while, so cry as much as you want so you can feel better. It's a pity that I didn't even have a chance to cry for my father, and I didn't even see my father's face. Wouldn't I be even more miserable than you, I'm just a widow, a puppet who is held hostage everywhere. I have earned this day with all my hard work, just as your father did before, how can a person who has enjoyed the satisfaction of power be willing to let go of his power so easily. A duel between us is inevitable, and even without me, your father and Eumenes would have had the ultimate showdown. If the superior person makes a decision, the subordinates are not afraid that your ambition is getting bigger and bigger, because the greater the risk, the greater the gain, since they have followed you on this road of no return, they will not be afraid that you will go higher and farther. But if you are timid and undecided, it is a taboo for the commander, and you should not expect your subordinates to accept all your decisions without regrets. When they have already put their lives on their toes, your withdrawal and melancholy will make them extremely angry. Want to wash your hands in a golden basin? Who knows what will happen in the future, if you don't fight, there will be others to fight, and in the end, if you don't defeat others, you will only be defeated by others. In order to protect themselves, they will even kill you, or they will use fait accompli to force you to comply. No matter how human beings develop, as long as there are human desires, this kind of thing will be repeated over and over again, in various forms, but its essence will not change. I understand all of this very well. Follow me, and let us join hands in the creation of a new Macedonian Empire, and your father will be buried according to the courtesy of the princes. Soon, you will be able to go back to reunite with your wife and children, who must be eagerly waiting for you to return. In addition, I have decided to build a city on the lower reaches of the Ostrom River (called the Assi River in Arabic), about 270 Statia south of Alexandreta, and the name of it will be given to you, and when you return from Phrygia you will start to take over, if you need anything, just tell me, I hope that this city will be comparable to Tyre, and become a political and economic center of the empire on the eastern shore of the sea (Mediterranean), which will be a city entirely belonging to the Macedonians. After saying that, Alexander sat on the chariot and left, Dmitry had already stopped crying, and was stunned by his words, and was inexplicably surprised by such unexpected words, and for a time did not realize that Alexander was gone.
