The scale and difficulty of this mausoleum, as well as its unique and secretive nature, are absolutely unprecedented, and it also reflects the unique thinking mode of Tutmo and ordinary people.

.

In the past, any pharaoh or high-level official had their tomb built on a site that had been specially surveyed, but these sites all had a common feature, which was a relatively wide plain, or access to transportation.

After all, it requires seven to one hundred thousand people to carry out construction, and various factors such as transporting materials and even personnel supplies must also be taken into consideration. Of course, the security of the address must also be considered, such as not being easily discovered.

In short, these various factors have resulted in the site selection, design and even specifications of the mausoleum being very strict, and these rules have hardly changed significantly since ancient times.

There are no major changes, which leads to the pharaoh's tomb being often visited by tomb robbers. Even if there are various traps and traps inside, which results in the death of more tomb robbers, there will still be willing to rob the tomb in the future.

, the tomb robber who tried again with his life, after all, the magic of gold and silver treasures is really fascinating.

Therefore, Tutmo came up with a brilliant idea this time, and started construction immediately without consulting some of his generals. Tutmo actually decided to place his final resting place at

The waterfall in the upper reaches of the huge river must be built on the cliff in the middle of the waterfall, so that it is harder for others to find it, but the difficulty of this kind of construction has been greatly increased.

Why do we say that the difficulty of construction will be greatly increased? First of all, we must understand that actually building such a mausoleum in the middle of the cliff of a waterfall, we must at least ensure that water cannot enter the mausoleum during the construction process, right? Therefore, this picture

The designers of Temo actually spent a lot of manpower to manually dig the river and temporarily redirect the entire river. What a huge project this is? We must understand that all of this is done manually.

There is no such thing as machinery in this era.

After temporarily changing the course of the river, the entire process of building a mausoleum in the middle of a cliff requires throwing materials and even excavated stones from high places to low places, or transporting them from low places to high places. These processes are all

This caused huge trouble and workload to the construction slaves. Compared with building a pyramid on the plains, this kind of project was more difficult.

But Tutmo's Egyptian empire had too many slave states at this time, so the number of slaves was also very large. Although during the entire process of building the tomb, they were indeed exhausted, beaten to death, or even contracted various diseases.

Death, or because they were too tired, they developed a mentality of escaping and took action to be killed, etc., etc., which resulted in the death of a large number of slaves, and these corpses were usually dug in pits and buried everywhere, because

At present, Egypt's medical skills are superb. They know that if these corpses deteriorate, some kind of virus will be produced, and sometimes they will burn them with fire.

But no matter how to deal with these massive slave corpses, or how to get more slave supplies from other slave countries, after many years, this waterfall mausoleum has indeed been successfully built, and the decoration inside is magnificent, just like the divine realm in mythology.

The shrine inside is equally beautiful and dazzling.

Tutmo was not dead at this time, and he personally inspected the built waterfall mausoleum. He was very satisfied with the mausoleum, and finally changed the course of the river again, which allowed the water of the waterfall to flow from the original cliff again.

Flow up so that no one will discover the secret behind this waterfall.

But at this time we mainly want to understand other aspects of things. Why do we need to understand it? In fact, the era of Thutmo, according to our concepts today, is the era of true empire. Why do we have to do this?

Do you understand? In fact, before we thought whether this could be defined as an empire was measured from the concepts of population, law, and military strength, but now we have to redefine the word empire from another aspect.

When redefining the empire, let's first take a look at the current situation. For example, Tutmo has previously attacked the slave country Megiddo for better management, so he mobilized a large number of troops to maintain the town.

Order, but just mobilizing a large number of troops will still lead to greater conflicts. After all, slaves are being killed every day, and the nobles in the town of Megiddo are also suffering inhumane persecution every day, so there are often

Egyptian warriors were assassinated, or more Megiddo slaves were killed by warriors.

So Tutmo is very troubled by such things, and because of these contradictions, the towns of Megiddo cannot be managed better at all. Why is this? Let's take a closer look at it.

First of all, there are two concepts of us and them. What are these concepts? This is the case. The Egyptian warriors call themselves us, and they also belong to the righteous party, but they call the people of Megiddo them. Anyway, Egypt

What the word warrior means by the word "them" is that they are not humans, they are just slaves, they can be killed at will, etc. In short, it is enough that they are evil. The people of Megiddo call themselves us,

He also called the Egyptian warriors them, but in the minds of the people of Megiddo, they were so-called demons, and they were demons from the abyss of hell. Demons are synonymous with evil, so they all deserve to die. So far, this is

As a result, the people of Megiddo believed that the Egyptian warriors were demons and they deserved to die.

It is precisely because of these two main conceptual factors of us and them, plus many other factors, that this has led to constant conflicts between the Egyptian warriors and the people of Megiddo. It can be said that everything is done with violence.

It seems that apart from the solution of violence and death, there is no other way to solve this problem.

In fact, the conflicts caused by this problem have recently been found in various empires on our planet, and even in some small tribes. For example, a small tribe absorbs another smaller tribe, because the language between the two tribes, and even other tribes,

Different beliefs, even different living habits and other factors will lead to this happening in a tribe. The two concepts of us and them do not recognize each other's existence, so we can think like this

of.

Tutmo understood this kind of thing. It seemed that his brain was very useful, but he felt that this problem must be solved, because if it was not solved, troops would be deployed to Megiddo all year round. This situation would not only cause

More Egyptian soldiers died, which also caused the death of a large number of laborers, and intensified the mood of resistance. And this kind of thing did not only happen in the towns of Megiddo, but also in many other slave countries.

Tutmo's first thought was to slaughter them all, but after the massacre, there would be no labor force, which seemed to indirectly lose the meaning of enslaving them.

So Tutmo thought hard and finally thought of a way to solve this problem. First, Tutmo had someone build a temple in the center of Megiddo town. This temple was the temple of the sun god, which made Megiddo

More and more people began to believe in the sun god. This was the invasion of culture!

But there is still a big problem in this matter, why? Because the people of Megiddo believe that the sun god is Thutmo, and Tutmo is a devil, so the sun god is also a devil, so they do not believe in the sun god, because Megiddo

Many people have gods they believe in, and they are all devout believers in these gods.

So we can now conclude that, as far as the Megiddos are concerned, the Egyptian warriors belong to them, not our own people, so everything they do is illegal and they are persecuting all the Megiddos.

people.

So far, the Temple of the Sun has not only failed to gain more believers, but has been neglected in disguise by many slaves and even senior officials of Megiddo. In the Temple of the Sun in Egypt, there is an endless stream of people coming and going every day, and we can even say that there is a constant flow of incense.

, and in the Sun Temple in Megiddo, it is just an empty Sun Temple.

So Tutmo is very troubled by this kind of thing. Of course, it does not mean that there is no way. You can use violence or even death threats, but this method still cannot solve the conflict. There is still the possibility of further expanding the conflict, so

Tuttmore has no better way to handle this matter now.

But Thutmo did not stop building the Temple of the Sun, and even built other temples, completely planning and constructing the town of Megiddo as if it were their Egyptian empire.

In the past, the town of Megiddo was just a relatively backward town, which was really far behind the real Egyptian empire. But now, in just a few years, the town of Megiddo has undergone earth-shaking changes.

There is a very big Sun Temple, and almost all the buildings are in the style of the Egyptian Empire. There are also games in the Egyptian Empire, beer and even Egyptian clothing styles.

This can be said to be Tutmo's more clever move. He used the smallest and seemingly unimportant factors in life to try to make the people in the town of Megiddo and the Egyptian warriors

If the word "them" is blurred, it will eventually become the concept of the word "us". Only then can Thutmo's goal be achieved.

We can also say that this is actually a process of assimilation, and this assimilation process is very rapid. If there are basically no accidents, it is the actions and norms of the majority, which assimilates the minority. After all,

There are too many people in Egypt. This is actually not difficult to understand. It is just like our modern day. For a while, women on the street liked to wear shorts, and then more and more women wore shorts, which formed a trend.

, and then more women will follow the trend and follow suit. For another example, for example, a Xi'an native from China has gone to the Northeast, and everyone in the Northeast has always spoken Northeastern dialect, so this Xi'an native has come into contact with the Northeastern dialect.

In the process, I slowly started to learn to speak Northeastern dialect. In fact, this is the truth.

For example, in the current town of Megiddo, the nobles or princes in the past would also start to drink beer at this time, and even occasionally chat about what the Sun God and other gods were in charge of, and even sit down occasionally.
