Inside and Outside World
Chapter 49: : Macedonian Corps
Pericles was alone, wearing a leather jacket and long johns, sitting alone in the senate, with a golden scepter leaning against one side, the door was closed, and there was no one beside him, as if the whole world was isolated.
He had an unlovable expression, and he was motionless, like a sculpture, a wax figure.
The more I think about it, the more it feels wrong.
What did those three guys do to Athens? Athens, which was originally prosperous, confident, and full of vitality, has now become as noisy as a slave market, full of cultivators, fellow Taoists, and core values... and even rewarded three people with honorary citizenship.
Thinking about it makes me feel aggrieved.
Only Gentiles who have made great contributions to Athens can get honorary citizenship!
"No, these three guys, when they arrive in the city-state of Olympia, I don't know what kind of trouble will happen again."
Pericles recruited a confidant: "Take a Talent silver and contact the Macedonian mercenary group, let them rob and kill three Chinese people on the way!"
A Tarient silver is equal to 60 minas, 1 mina is equal to 100 dramak silver coins, and 10 silver coins can hire a person. Theoretically, these silver coins can employ more than 500 people! Even veteran fighters with complete equipment and experience in war can still hire hundreds of people!
This time, Pericles paid a big price.
Yan Luo and his party didn't know that the consul of Athens was willing to spend so much money to mercenary soldiers. The three got badges representing honorary citizens and identification certificates to participate in the Olympics. Wang Dongwei and Zhu Xiaoyong were so excited that they even wanted to cry move.
It's not easy!
Finally able to participate in the Olympic Games.
Is this considered a curve to save the country?
"The elders of the city of Athens are really ignorant. Fatty, I still wear shirts and shorts worth 10 yuan, which make him happy as if he got some treasure." The elder poet who made the suggestion was bribed by Zhu Xiaoyong.
Wang Dongwei was packing up the sundries.
With a Greek style, the sheepskin skirt leather armor like in the Troy movie, the spears commonly used by soldiers, as well as Greek iron swords and copper-clad round shields...
Although it cannot be taken out, it can be used in the other world.
Yan Luo changed into the original black jeans and a black and white striped shirt.
There is a programmed storage space, messy sundries, and food on the road can be placed in it.
The three of them are not together with the athletes of the city-state of Athens. The Olympic Games schedule will officially start in one week, and now they must go on the road—According to Wang Dongwei, Athens is estimated to be 200 kilometers away from the city-state of Olympia.
In ancient times, this was not a short distance.
Of course, in addition to walking, you can also ride a horse, but Wang Dongwei, Yan Luo, and Zhu Xiaoyong don't know how to ride a horse. Horses in this era don't have saddles, and it's not easy for ordinary people to learn. Because of this, the main combat force in this era is infantry and chariots, not cavalry.
Knowing that the three of Yan Luo were about to leave, Socrates, Herodotus, Thucydides and others all came to see them off.
When I left, the city of Athens was crowded with people. After all, Yan Luo's performance at that ceremony was amazing, no matter what he took off, he showed a fit body, or his talent for debating with scholars.
There is nothing to say about this scene. Yan Luo has lost his feelings and will not be moved by these people. Besides, he is a modern person in the outside world, and these are the ancient people in the inner world—but Zhu Xiaoyong is a little bit reluctant. These days, he eats lamb legs very well, and as a fat house, he feels respect for the first time.
Scholars felt sorry to learn that Yan Luo and his party would not return to Athens after participating in the Olympic Games.
Many Greek scholars sent gifts.
Sophocles sent a copy of his play manuscript, which is an extremely precious historical relic in the real world, but it is of no value if it cannot be taken out.
Herodotus' gift was a gold chain.
The thick and big gold chain is an accessory that can be taken away! It is similar to the piece of jade that Wang Dongwei bought for 200 points... If it is sold in the dream space, it should be worth several hundred points of bioenergy.
Hippocrates also gave jewelry, a gold headdress inlaid with rubies. He saw that Yan Luo was wearing a gem on his head, and thought it was customary for Chinese people to wear headdresses. It's just this, although the value is higher, but it can't be taken away, it's not as good as a dog-style big gold chain.
Euripides sent a Persian female slave, only 12 years old, very similar to a modern Arab girl, with big eyes, as cute as green apples, for Yan Luo and his party, it was useless to ask for a female slave in the other world, so they refused up.
Socrates' gift is a marble statue carved by his father, which is only the size of a palm and can be taken out.
It is said that his father, who is carving a statue of Yan Luo of equal height, plans to place it in the Parthenon Temple as a symbol of Chinese wisdom and accompany the statue of Athena.
It is estimated that it will take several years of work to complete.
After leaving Athens, Yan Luo and his party embarked on the road to Olympia.
About 200 kilometers away, Wang Dongwei's plan is that the three of them will walk 40 kilometers a day on foot and arrive in 5 days.
There are many city-states along the way that will not get lost. The three of Yanluo have the badge of honorary citizens of Athens and the identity certificate of the Olympic Games, and they will not be detained by other city-states. After all, Athens is now the number one in Greece.
Two days later, Zhu Xiaoyong couldn't take it anymore, 80 miles a day was a huge challenge for a fat man who weighed more than 300 pounds~www.readwn.com~.
Slowed down to take care of this guy, but it's okay, as long as I can catch up.
On the evening of the fourth day, not far from Olympia, the three of them stopped by a river in the wild, and built a fire to barbecue food——Yan Luo hit a hare with a bullet, and at this time the sound of "rumbling" came from afar. Come, march like an army.
I saw the horizon illuminated by the setting sun, and gradually a legion appeared.
The leading general wore bronze chain armor and rode a horse. Saddles hadn't appeared in this era, and the horse's back was covered with the fur of an unknown beast. In addition, there are four horses carrying bundles of wooden spears. The length of these spears is astonishing, more than 5 meters!
There were hundreds of soldiers in the legion, about 20 of them wore leather armor with a round shield on their backs, about 30 of them carried 2-meter long spears, and a large shield with a diameter of half a meter, and 50 of them were ordinary civilians without armor. Bow and arrow, hand ax hanging on the waist.
"Cavalry, infantry, light infantry, and auxiliary soldiers?"
Wang Dongwei commented thoughtfully: "This should be the legion of the Macedonian Kingdom. I didn't expect to see Macedonian soldiers in the Peloponnese... Where are they going?"
When he was curious, the legion marched here and stopped about two hundred meters away.
At this time, the general seemed to have issued some order, and the auxiliary soldiers with bows and arrows lined up in three rows, and everyone put the arrows on the strings and pulled them away.
"Danger!"
Wang Dongwei's pupils constricted suddenly, and he quickly took out a copper-covered round shield from the mobile phone space, Zhu Xiaoyong also hurriedly took out the shield, and half knelt down to cover the top of his head.
In the next second, with the whistling sound of "whoosh, whoosh," the arrows formed a parabolic trajectory, pierced the sky, and fell towards the three of them like rain!
