The reason why there is no end is because the Greek Empire also thinks that their own empire is so powerful, why do they always have to be bullied by the Persian Empire? So in the end, this evolved into the so-called concept of simply conquering cities and territories, but evolved into empires and empires.

The hatred between them!

We can imagine that for so many years, the Persian Empire killed all the Greeks when they saw it, and the Greeks also killed all the people when they saw the Persian Empire! So this eventually evolved into, there must be one party that seems to be completely removed from this earth.

Only by disappearing can hatred be released.

But it is not difficult for us to imagine that in fact, the war between the two countries was not painful at all. No matter it was the high-level officials of Persia or Greece, there were no casualties, only civilians and soldiers between the two empires.

They are killing each other.

But we cannot deny that if Persia defeats Greece, the Persian Empire will become even more powerful, and the civilians of the Persian Empire will live a better life than they do now. And if Greece defeats Persia, the result will actually be

It's the same, so we can't say who is right and who is wrong in this act of massacre of a large number of people, but we can also say that both of these two families are dissatisfied with each other.

After eight years of fighting between the Persian Empire and the Greek Empire, Darius felt that the Persian Empire's entire military strength and even its production capacity had experienced a serious decline. In fact, this was mainly due to the fact that the Persian Empire had suffered too many deaths in the past eight years.

There are so many people that it really can’t be calculated using numbers anyway, because there have been too many wars in eight years, large and small, that looked like a slaughterhouse, and it’s hard to calculate at all.

So Darius I now wants to replenish his military strength and productivity, but how to supplement this military strength and productivity? First of all, it cannot be supplemented by asking the women of his Persian Empire to give birth to children quickly. A child will need to grow up.

Ten or twenty years, is this a joke? So Darius I hoped to replenish his troops and productivity in a faster way, so what is the fastest way? In fact, it is: plunder!

In about 492 BC, Darius made up his mind to plunder more troops and productivity, which required a large-scale attack! Then he sent his son-in-law Mardoni to lead more than 600 very sophisticated Phoenician ships

Base warship, set off to conquer Greece! But Darius's son-in-law Mardonius seemed to have bad luck, so he encountered a big storm at sea on the way to go to Greece. Many Persian warriors died in the storm, and there were more

The warship was buried in the sea! Therefore, in the end, it suffered extremely heavy losses and then returned without success.

Darius I was very disappointed when he learned about this matter, but even so, the Persian Empire was still the overlord of Western Asia, and no other small tribe dared to make plans. And even if the top leaders of Greece knew about this matter, they would

We dare not attack Persia rashly, because Persia currently has not only a navy, but more of an army! So for the Persian Empire, more than 600 Phoenician sophisticated warships did cause heavy losses to Persia, but it was not enough

So that the whole of Persia was in ruins.

Therefore, after another two years, the Persian navy was replenished. Anyway, a large number of naval forces were recruited and a large number of sophisticated ships were built. Because Darius I's determination to destroy Greece now seemed like an obsession.

, after all, even if Darius I himself did not attack Greece, the Greeks would attack Persia. There was no room for peace, not even surrender.

So after Darius I replenished his navy, around 490 BC, he led a large navy. Of course, the warships were also equipped with a large number of land forces, and then attacked from the sea, intending to attack Greece! And the great flow

Shishi I's fleet successfully landed at Marathon!

Although Marathon was well-prepared, Darius's army was beheaded on the spot and turned into a piece of meat. At this time, the top Greek officials knew about this and immediately sent a large number of infantry to fight.

.

At present, Darius I of Persia has loaded a lot of cavalry on the ships! And these cavalry are very brave, but because the training time is not very long, after all, this war has been fought for more than ten years, and there are no more.

The time is used to train soldiers, so some cavalry have only been trained for more than ten days before going to the battlefield. What is even more outrageous is that some cavalry have not been trained, but they are only old enough to meet the standards of the conscription system.

So they were recruited to become warriors. However, from our modern point of view, these cavalrymen with little training are simply here to die.

In fact, the situation is exactly like this. Because this place belongs to Greece, the infantry sent by Greece this time are all the most sophisticated infantry in the country. Large numbers of Greek infantry will compete with the Persian cavalry.

Moreover, because the Greek infantry were the most sophisticated, they were well-trained and the military formation was very strong. Then the Greek infantry killed the cavalry legion that Darius was proud of, leaving corpses all over the ground. In short, this was another

The scene of piles of corpses, all of this looks really terrible. This is another slaughterhouse for us humans. Of course, a lot of animals were also slaughtered this time, which were the mounts of the Darius Cavalry Regiment.

Darius I’s army suffered extremely heavy losses this time! They even fled in panic in the end. Anyway, Darius I’s Persian Empire’s attack on Greece ended in failure again. Darius I issued an order

Orders to retreat were given and returned to Persia.

The Greek warriors were not much better. They also suffered heavy losses. This battle not only prevented Persia from recovering its strength for several years, but also prevented Greece from recovering its strength for several years.

However, Darius I had not given up on the idea of ​​completely conquering Greece, so he was still recruiting soldiers. At this time, all the civilians in the Persian Empire were suffering from constant wars, which lasted for more than ten years.

Well, when will this end? Some boys even dare not grow up. They are afraid of growing up, because they have to become warriors when they grow up. In fact, in the Persian Empire, being a warrior seemed to be the same concept as going to die.

At this point, the civilians of the Persian Empire were very afraid of the concept of death. Another thing is that the Persian Empire was at war all the year round, and the civilians had to hand over the created resources and even food to the empire, which made the lives of the civilians like

Just like slaves. Then there is the slave state of the Persian Empire. Those slaves simply do not live like slaves. From here, it is not difficult to see that the war is indeed too terrible.

Then came the Greek Empire. In fact, the Greek Empire was not much better. We can also imagine why Greece never took the initiative to launch an attack and then attacked the Persian Empire. In fact, this is not difficult to understand at all. The Greek Empire in the past

In more than ten years, the losses have been so great that it is simply beyond description in words. The civilians of Greece used to have a pretty good life, but since the war with Persia, they really haven't had a day of peace. It's not that they are afraid.

The madmen in Persia would suddenly attack and massacre them, just because they were afraid that their boys would grow up, because when they grow up, they will become warriors. And becoming a warrior actually means committing suicide. Another thing is that Greek civilians and even nobles

Almost all of the wealth and food they created would be handed over to the Greek Empire.

In fact, none of us can tell what is right or wrong about this kind of thing, because whether it is the people of Greece or the people of Persia, they actually understand in their hearts that if they lose this war, they will

He will become a virtual slave and will never be able to stand up again, so the war must continue!

And in Greece, the Spartans have actually made a lot of efforts over the years. The number of Spartans now has more than 10,000 from the original 30,000. It seems that even in such a strict militarization

People who grow up like war gods in such an environment will still die, and a large number of them die in wars.

In short, we only need to understand one thing. In fact, the war is still going on. Darius I continues to recruit troops, build ships, and even make weapons. He even begins to ask civilians to hand over more food and resources. In fact, the same is true for Greece. Anyway, these two

In fact, the common people and nobles in the big empires are not having a good time, but the nobles and high-level officials will not have enough to eat. The situation of not having enough to eat and not having enough clothes only appears in these two empires.

Among the civilians, and the soldiers are still civilians, we can also judge that this war is fought by civilians, but the orders are issued by high-level officials. Civilians dare not disobey, disobeying will lead to death! And after disobeying,

If you are attacked by other people's army, you will be a slave and you will never be able to get over it.

Although we have already seen it after talking here, in fact, although Darius I of Persia has been repeatedly defeated, Darius has never given up the idea of ​​conquering Greece, because by conquering Greece, he can establish a world-class empire.

!This concept of a world-class empire actually has a huge temptation for every king of the empire.

But currently, although Darius I is still planning to attack Greece again, the slave country of Persia cannot stand this kind of life.

Some of the slaves in the slave country are really worse than slaves. For example, the remaining city-states of the Egyptian Empire became the slave country of Darius I. These Egyptians really couldn't stand it. They couldn't eat all day long.

Having food to eat and not covering the body are really trivial matters for the Egyptian slaves, because even sleeping is a problem for them. They only sleep for a few pitiful hours every day and work the rest of the time. As long as an individual can
