one hundred and seventy-four

But after Alexander destroyed the local cultural system, he built many Greek-style cities, several of which were named after himself and have been preserved to this day and age. The most famous one is Alexandria.

It is now the largest seaport in Egypt in our time.

However, our world is not what Alexander imagined at all. Everything has its own laws and development. There are also other places that are not what Alexander thought. For example, Eastern peoples are also full of wisdom and creativity.

It also created a very splendid civilization. During Alexander's Eastern Expedition, he gradually began to realize these facts and gradually became obsessed with Eastern culture.

When Alexander fully understood these things, such as the Persian monarchy, the luxurious palaces of the East, and even many Eastern religions, they all impressed him. Therefore, while spreading Greek culture, he also began to respect the culture of other regions, and

Efforts were made to promote exchanges between different cultures. In order to promote exchanges and trust between various ethnic groups, he himself married Rokosanna, a nobleman of Bactria, Statila, the daughter of King Darius III of Persia, and other people from different ethnic groups.

wife.

Alexander also encouraged his soldiers to marry Eastern women, and announced that they could enjoy tax exemption rights. Alexander also held a grand and luxurious wedding in Susa. It was his wedding to Statila, and it also cost 10,000 yuan.

At the weddings of many soldiers and oriental women, Alexander also gave many gifts to these newlyweds.

But we have to understand that Alexander always wanted to be the King of Kings, so after he withdrew from India, he was always very unwilling, so he reorganized his army in Babylon, planning to conquer the entire India, and then march to Carthage.

,Invasion of Rome!

To be honest, I really want to see Alexander and the Romans fight at this time. I think it will definitely be a big war that will destroy the world! Because I personally think that the chance of the Roman legions losing is not very high, because

The nature of the Roman legions and Alexander's armies were completely different!

But now let’s return to our topic. Although Alexander was determined to do this, God did not fulfill his wishes. In 323 BC, this arrogant emperor suddenly died!

Therefore, the conflict between Alexander and the Romans that I personally expected did not happen. This is definitely a big regret. Some people may think that I am very cold-blooded, but I really want to see them fight! Haha.

Then we summarize the life of Alexander. I believe many of my friends know about Alexander. He is also one of the most legendary figures in human history and a dramatic figure. He is broad-minded, full of enthusiasm, and full of insight into the world.

He was brave and good at fighting, invincible, and established an immortal career. He was young, promising, and heroic, but he died young, leaving many imaginations for our modern people today. Alexander's expedition also has

The empire established by Alexander brought huge disasters to the conquered people at that time. Specifically, it was a slave society, which even exploited civilians and fought wars all year round. This resulted in the people being in dire straits and living in fear every day. But we have to look at it from a historical perspective.

It can be seen that it promotes cultural exchanges between the East and the West, and promotes the understanding and integration between the Eastern and Western nations, which also promotes the development of history.

What should we talk about next? In fact, India has developed Buddhist culture during this period, and this Buddhist culture spread very quickly. In my personal opinion, Buddhist culture, such as the Mauryan Dynasty and King Asoka, this

Is it all the king's imagination after seeing the common people living in dire straits? Anyway, I'm not very good at this.

Another thing is, I just analyzed that Buddhist culture is an illusion for Indians to treat a better life. After all, at this time, India is consolidating the caste system, so the Buddhist culture was born. I analyzed that it was to make the senior officials soft-hearted.

Don't torture Indians like this. But in the end, we have also seen that the concept of money and even desire are above all else. In short, Buddhist culture has definitely failed miserably in India. Judging from our modern era, India's caste system

It has become deeply ingrained, so the Buddha's culture of equality of all living beings has completely lost in India! But the lower class people in India regard the Buddha as a treasure and have always been addicted to it. They have no idea of ​​resisting with force. If they resist with force,

It is definitely not what we modern people see now.

So I personally analyze from a historical point of view that Buddhism’s dedication to kindness has caused the Dravidian people in India to lose their bloody thinking mode, that is, they have lost their aggressive, ambitious and even bullying character. In the end,

As a result, after thousands of years of history, the Dravidians are still enslaved by the Aryans and are still the lowest class of untouchables. But I don’t think they belong to the Dravidians, the indigenous people of India.

One party is wrong. In fact, I think that Buddhist culture should not appear in India. If this kind of culture does not appear, then I believe that the Dravidian people will definitely resist, but regardless of whether they win or lose, there is absolutely no chance.

The situation we have today is terrible.

But in short, this is the history of other countries, and it has nothing to do with me. As for why I have such a big prejudice against Buddhism, it is because this Buddhist concept has influenced us in China, but its influence is far less than that of India.

The local influence is great. Our Chinese Buddhism still regards money as the concept. Of course, except for some real monks, but who is the real monk? Anyway, I don’t understand it, but I understand that even if it is a real monk,

A monk who is dedicated to good deeds is also eating the food created by us common people, or living by using the wealth created by us common people, and studying Buddhism every day. I think it is better to send him to fight on the border! All day long, he will be clean.

Make some useless things, why do I say this? Because this Buddha has influenced many people in China’s belief in our own culture and dragon!

Although I hate the Buddhist culture, I think it is right to be kind to our own people in the Buddhist culture. However, I do not advocate being kind to outsiders. They are not the same people as me. If you want to kill me with a knife, I will still do it.

Wash your neck and kill him? Impossible! I won’t do that, and I also want to marry a wife to enjoy it, etc. Anyway, our dragon has not prohibited me from doing these things. What our dragon taught me is that if someone bullies me,

Then fight him back! Are you afraid of being beaten? Then kill him!

In the end, I did not analyze clearly whether this Buddhist culture came from the imagination of the Dravidian people in India to move the higher-ups to let them go, or whether it came from the upper-level Aryan people. If it came from the upper-level Aryan people, then

This matter is serious! This doesn’t even need to be analyzed. It’s just a big lie made up by the Aryans in order to better implement the caste system and make the entire Dravidian people lose their fighting spirit!

However, as to whether it came from the Dravidians or the Aryans, I cannot analyze it due to insufficient data. But if the first founder of the Buddha was a prince? Then the whole thing looks like

It's a bit creepy, but it's just a legend. I can't analyze how much of it is true, so I won't go into details here. As for what the truth is, I believe we can analyze it one day.

Okay, let’s stop talking about the Buddhist culture in India during this period, and then start talking about a city-state that all of us men yearn for, yes! The city of Rome! The Roman Empire that we like so much, after implementing the "Twelve Tables of Bronze"

After that, this kind of law, which can be called a very advanced democracy, drove the development of the entire Rome in an instant, and the development speed was very rapid! Then we will take a look at the strong debut of the city of Rome!

This was around 300 BC, and the Carthaginians were actually descendants of the Phoenicians on the west coast of the Mediterranean. So we can also understand that the Carthaginians' navigation and shipbuilding technology were also very powerful. But this

In the earlier period, around the fourth century BC, trade in the Mediterranean was controlled by the Greeks, that is, the Athenians. At that time, the Carthaginians formed an alliance with the Romans and then worked together to deal with the Greeks.

After the Carthaginians and the Romans formed an alliance, they also defeated the Greeks, that is, they defeated the Athenian fleet. However, in order to compete for the hegemony of the wealthy Sicily and the Mediterranean Sea, the Carthaginians and the Romans turned against each other again.

Anyway, three relatively large-scale wars took place. The Romans called the Carthaginians Punic, so these three wars were called Punic Wars in our later human history.

Rome has always been in a state of external expansion, so it has improved various weapons and even tactics. It uses a large number of bows, arrows, spears and other throwing weapons, which can kill and injure the soldiers in the enemy's formation far away from the enemy's formation. Before, the Romans were discharged

The spear phalanx fought against the Gauls. After the Gauls' sword and shield soldiers broke through the Roman flanks, the Roman army had no ability to resist and could only wait to be killed in their positions. This

This tragic defeat made the Romans realize that if the spear formation was broken through, it would be difficult to resist the attack of the sword and shield soldiers. Therefore, the Romans made revolutionary improvements to their phalanx and developed the small infantry phalanx.

tactics.
