So after the Roman King Romulus thought hard, he finally knew what to do. This was a strategy. The Roman King sent people to invite all the surrounding tribes, hoping that they could all come to Rome's festival banquet. And here we are.

On the day of the festival, people from many tribes actually did not come because they were afraid of the Romans, but people from a few places came anyway.

Among them, the people of one tribe are Sabines. In short, the Sabines are the most numerous, and the Sabine girls are also very beautiful. In the past, the Romans often had various conflicts with the surrounding city-states and even people in the tribe, and even some

Sometimes it would turn into a large-scale conflict. After all, the Romans only admired force and women, so many of the principles spoken by the gods did not make sense at all. Everything was spoken by force.

Whenever there was a big conflict between Rome and other tribes, the Sabine girls liked to come out to break up the fight, as if they were not afraid of the Romans at all. And because the Romans were, to put it bluntly, what we modern people would call a group of outright bastards.

They are just bandits, so they dress very casually, and the muscles on their bodies are exposed. The girls of Sabine are also like this, and they like to wear white dress-like clothes, which look very cool and beautiful, usually

The calves and breasts are very charming! Another thing is that Sabine girls are Caucasian and have very white skin. We have always said that whiteness covers all ugliness in modern times. So Sabine girls are both beautiful and beautiful.

The appearance and even the skin color are very attractive.

So far, on the day of this Roman festival, many, many Sabine girls came. Anyway, it is a Roman festival, so you can eat and drink for free. So far, the Sabine girls are eating and drinking in Rome and having a lot of fun.

I'm so happy, the whole city of Rome is filled with laughter and laughter today.

And at this time, the Roman King Romulus suddenly gave an order, and the Romans quickly closed the city gates! Then the Romans snatched the girls on the street, and if they liked the ones they took away, they took them back to get married!

Having said this, I believe that all the friends reading this book, if they are men, probably like the city of Rome, right? In fact, I also like it very much. Of course, the city of Rome will eventually develop into a very powerful empire, but this

That’s all for another time, and we will definitely analyze everything about the Roman Empire with the greatest emphasis. After all, I am also very interested in Rome.

Then we also talk about some statues in Rome. One of them is made of bronze: it is a she-wolf with her eyes wide open, her fangs exposed, looking forward very warily. And underneath the she-wolf

, there are two boys drinking milk.

Okay, now we also know about Roman cities in other places on the earth, so we push the time forward a few years and continue to go back to the war between Persia and Greece. In fact, we have mentioned many times before that Persia and Greece

The war seems to be unstoppable, and it has reached a point where it seems that it can only be stopped if one of the countries disappears completely, right?

As we have said before, Darius I, the great Persian king, not only built inns and dug canals in Persia, but also set up laws and even administrative orders. It can be said that he named various provinces and places.

It is the establishment of a sound management system, etc.

What is even more powerful about Darius I is his conquering character that makes us today ashamed. He retained the cultural traditions and customs of his locals, tribes and even small empires, but on this basis he could still unify currency and even weights and measures.

.In fact, it is extremely difficult to unify the currency and weights and measures while ensuring the cultural traditions, customs and habits of the conquered tribes and even small empires.

But Darius I completely achieved all this impossibility. In fact, the concept of money played a very important role in this. This is actually not difficult to understand. It is just like our modern people today. For example, some of us in China

People may not like some people in the current United States, but it is true that they do not like some people in the United States. If someone tells us that if we don’t like Americans, we also don’t like the U.S. dollar, we will definitely not believe this! So!

In other words, whether Americans really don't like us Chinese, but they are very comfortable spending our Chinese money, this is just like some people in China don't like some people in the United States, but when we spend dollars, it's the same

It goes smoothly and you will never feel any discomfort!

It was this concept of money that Darius I used to completely establish a very important connection element between the entire Persian Empire, which was the unified currency! We can also say that Darius is definitely great! At least in

Of all the kings and pharaohs who had appeared before Darius, none could compare with Darius's level of management.

Of course, this also means that Darius I left a very precious wealth to the Persian Empire, which is the super high level of management, the intelligence system, even the canal system, etc.

We have also talked about Xerxes, the son of Darius, before. He said that after inheriting the throne of the Persian Empire, the first thing Xerxes did was to swear: He vowed to conquer the entire Greece! It was even more so after the bloody defeat of Marathon.

shame.

Therefore, after King Xerxes of Persia inherited the throne, he began to intensively recruit and train a large number of warriors. He also attached great importance to the navy, especially cultivating the Phoenician fleet! In fact, the Phoenicians have also been waiting.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, it would definitely not be possible if the Phoenicians and their family went to attack Greece. Therefore, as the current vassal state of Persia, the Phoenicians have been waiting for the Persian King Xerxes to issue an order to attack Greece. So far, the Phoenicians

In the past years, people have also been training hard every day for military training.

In the end, after many years of preparation, around 480 BC, which was the tenth year after the Battle of Marathon, King Xerxes of Persia mobilized everyone in the entire Persian Empire, with a total army of up to

One hundred thousand people!!! These people are all Persians. They are a very, very sophisticated army. There are no slaves or anything like that. This is a very powerful Persian army! In addition, the Phoenicians are the main force of the fleet.

, there are about 800 very sophisticated warships!!!!

Let’s first take a look at the current number of Persian troops and the sophistication of this equipment, whether it is iron helmets, armor, swords, bows, siege vehicles, even cavalry, and even cavalry horses.

Armor, etc., so this is definitely an army capable of destroying the entire world!

If King Xerxes of Persia, who is now leading this army, wants to be the enemy of the entire world, then no one can resist this. This army is too powerful! Even we are just looking at King Xerxes of Persia

This powerful army can make us modern people feel that this army seems to have traveled through time and space and arrived in this era. Anyway, such an army does not seem to be a product of this era.

But from here it is not difficult to see that in order to fulfill his oath, King Xerxes of Persia trampled the entire Greece. This oath is definitely not a joke to all of us or even to the people of Greece. Now, Xerxes ordered the army

Advance by land and water simultaneously! Kill in a mighty way towards Greece.

At this time, after a period of march, the Persian army had arrived at the Hellespont, which is the Dardanelles Strait in modern Turkey today. Xerxes then ordered the construction of a pontoon bridge to allow the army to continue marching, while Egypt

The humans and the Phoenicians each built a pontoon bridge.

But at this time, a strong wind suddenly blew in the Hellespont. This was a situation where a sea storm had arrived. The powerful sea storm broke the ropes of the pontoon. When Xerxes saw this, he suddenly became furious!

He felt that the sea looked down on himself, and even more so on their great Persian Empire.

So King Xerxes of Persia was so angry that he executed all the Egyptians and Phoenicians who had built the bridge! He thought they were incompetent! But at this time, there were quite a few waves on the Hellespont, and there were even strong winds.

, it was really impossible to march. But Xerxes ordered the army to throw long iron chains into the sea, hoping to lock the sea! He also sent people to whip the sea three hundred times in retaliation for the sea blocking his progress.

At this time, Persian craftsmen lined up 360 wooden boats and connected them with very thick ropes. Finally, they laid wooden boards on the boats and installed railings on both sides to prevent people and horses from falling into the water. This is

A super floating bridge was erected.

King Xerxes of Persia is riding in a chariot pulled by eight horses and has 10,000 guardsmen wearing garlands, which is the most sophisticated army in Persia, also called the Immortal Army. It is among these 10,000 immortals that

With the support of the army, King Xerxes of Persia braved the strong winds and even heavy rain on the Hellespont Strait, climbed onto the pontoon bridge, and crossed the strait proudly.

In the end, it took seven days and seven nights for the entire Persian Empire's army to pass through the Hellespont. This shows how huge the Persian Empire's army was this time!

After the Persian army completely crossed the strait, the Persian king Xerxes first let the soldiers rest for a while. At this time, the Greeks didn't know it yet, because the wind was howling all the time on the strait, although Greece knew that the Persian army

It was coming, but they thought that Persia would not march in this kind of weather. This was a miscalculation by the Greeks.
