readx;? In 2374 BC, before leaving, Sargon sent troops to sweep away the property of the old nobles in Kish who had bad intentions towards him, and swept away the treasury wealth accumulated by Kish over the years, leaving Kish with his Eastern Semitic army and returning to Akkadian, one of the East Semitic settlements. Pen Fun Pavilion was accompanied www.biquge.info a large number of Eastern Semites who supported him.

"Uruk was defeated, and royal power was transferred to Akkad. ”

The city of Akkadian built by the Semites, some sources believe that it is the same place as the city of Babylon, and some even say that Baghdad is also the same place, the author was also confused at first, looked through a lot of information, and finally drew a rough map by hand, and found that the three places were completely different and far apart.

Of the three cities, Baghdad is the northernmost and is located at the junction of the Tigris and Diyala rivers. The closest to Baghdad is Akshaq, which is separated by the Tigris River to the southwest of Baghdad. The city of Akkadian is southwest of Akshak, southeast of Sibal, near the Euphrates River. Babylon is located near the central latitude of the Akkadian region, but on the east bank of the Euphrates River, which is far from both Baghdad and Nipur.

The city of Akkadian was founded by the East Semites during the reign of Shamash in Mesopotamia.

Sargon drove out the Sumerian Ensi and was warmly embraced by the Semites of the city of Akkad. So Sargon took the city of Akkad as his capital and founded the Akkad dynasty. Later, because of its glory, the East Semites were collectively referred to as the Akkadians, and the area south of Baghdad and north of Nipur was called the Akkadian region. At first, I also wanted to call them Akkadians, but I can't define the situation of the Assyrians after that, because the Assyrian kingdom was founded by the descendants of Sargon, and there were no Akkadians in the previous Shamash period.

Sargon was satisfied with his title of King of Kish, but he had already left the city of Kish, so he added a name to his capital, Akkad (Kish), so that the status of the original Kish city in the south was more awkward, and the people took a new name called Lagash or Lagash. But this is all a reference within the Semites, and the Sumerians have the same name for it.

Sargon's approach caused strong resentment from the Sumerian city-state alliance such as Uruk.

The Coalition demanded that Sargon return the wealth of the plundered city of Kish. But these riches have actually made Sargon's power greatly increased, and even in the future, Sargon was able to unify the entire two river basins, Kish's wealth is the most important resource, how can it be given with both hands, but Sargon has to make a false deal with the snake in order to avoid causing public indignation, and the two sides have launched marathon negotiations.

During the three years of the negotiations, Sargon actively trained the army and liaised with the Eastern Semitic ministries.

During the previous Shamash Dynasty, the Eastern Semites were a unified whole, but after the decline of the Shamash Dynasty, the Eastern Semites were divided and roughly divided into two parts, one large part was broken up by the Sumerians, and engaged in more menial jobs among the Sumerians, of course, later life gradually improved, and some people climbed to a high position like the situation in Kish City, and even became kings, which belonged to the development of the system, and Sargon represented this part of the people. A small group of tribal confederations roamed the city outside of Silesia, avoiding the Sumerian mandate in Ensi, but this was the backbone of the Semites, and their strength was not to be underestimated, but there was no wise leader to lead them. Its rulers, Ishaku, tended to be conservative with older elders as the Grand Elders.

Sargon took a fancy to their strength, and personally went to Silesia with a heavy gift to visit the Grand Elder Ishakuberu, and in the conversation he revealed his desire to look down on the world, which greatly satisfied Beru, and he called a council of elders to explain the situation to the elders, emphasizing that Sargon has a great deal of wealth brought by Kish, and with our invincible cavalry, no one is our combined enemy. The Council of Elders unified the views of the tribal confederation.

In 2372 BC, Beru offered to pass on his position to Sargon as an older man, and Sargon became the true leader of the Eastern Semitic tribes. Sargon's succession to Ishacku marked the true convergence of the two forces inside and outside the system of the Eastern Semites, and the true unification of the Eastern Semites, like the original Shamash dynasty, will sweep through Mesopotamia like a storm that will rise to the sky.

In his capacity as Ishakul, Sargon called on the tribes of Eastern Semites in Silesia to join his army in the city of Akkad.

After all the tribes arrived, Sargon's strength increased greatly, and the negotiations broke down, and the Sumerian leader Lugar Zag Si called on the Sumerians to form a coalition against Sargon. The city-states joined one after another, and a total of 50 Sumerian city-states of Ensi joined with troops, with a total strength of about 20,000 troops.

In 2371 BC, the Akkadian dynasty, led by Sargon, led the Semitic tribes in the north to form a Semitic alliance, with a well-trained standing army as the core, and attacked the Sumerian region first.

The battle between the two sides is, in a sense, the final battle between Kish and Uruk, who have been enemies for generations, because Sargon is the true king of Kish. With his united standing army of Akkadians, Sargon annihilated the chaotic Sumerian army and captured Lugar Zag Si.

A Nipur inscription gloatingly recounts the fate of Lugar Zag Si: "Sargon, the monarch of Akkad, the king of this country, reduced the city of Uruk to ruins and destroyed its walls. He fought against the Uruks and conquered them, and he fought against Lugar Zag Si, captured him, and shackled him to Nipur. ”

Lugar Zag Si was dragged by Sargon with a rope to the door of the temple of Enlil in the city of Nipur and burned to the deity of the gods, and his wife was taken as a concubine by Sargon.

After many years of campaigning, Sargon led a large army to continue south, deep into the heart of Sumer, after years of conquest, conquered your, Uruk and other city-states, and reached the Persian Gulf ("washing the sword in the Persian Gulf"), following the Shamash dynasty, the Eastern Semites once again unified Mesopotamia, ending the chaos of the region for nearly a thousand years. By this time, his achievements were far higher than those of the Eastern Semitic king of Kish, your Zhapapa, whom he had envied.
