Starting from the other world, I joined the chat group at the same time

He didn't know whether the shot killed Agamemnon or not. Generally speaking, he should have been dead. After all, the pointed bullet that hit his heart would be almost impossible to save him in modern times, let alone with the medical technology of this era!

But - he couldn't explain it clearly, he still felt a strong and strange sense of uneasiness.

"There is absolutely no peace for us now." Hector said with a wry smile

"They have never thought of peace talks." Xia Lang sneered.

"Look at the bright side. If Agamemnon dies here, maybe the bandits will disperse on their own. And I didn't break any rules. It was Agamemnon who was shameless first!"

'Drive!!!'

At this moment, a black shadow on horseback suddenly appeared in front of Xia Lang and Hector. Facing the calibration of weapons, the black shadow lifted his hood, revealing his appearance.

This was a very handsome man, with long black curly hair and a beard. He wore an inconspicuous black armor, but his eyes revealed wisdom and cunning.

"…Are you Odysseus?"

A premonition made Xia Lang involuntarily call out the other party's name. This real protagonist of the Odyssey can also be said to be the culprit of the Trojan War on another level.

"…You shouldn't have participated in this war."

Odysseus stared at Xia Lang and said in a tone that made his spine shudder.

"You have changed the nature of this war. You will pay the price, and soon."

After saying that, Odysseus immediately rode away. Hector looked puzzled and didn't understand what the other party was saying at all.

Only Xia Lang covered his chest, feeling more and more uneasy...

Volume 93: Xia Lang's Various Time Travels: Chapter 90 . [Troy] The Hero's Appearance

After a night of meaningless negotiations that even pushed the war further, three days passed and the war continued.

The Greek coalition forces have gradually arrived at the city-states near Troy. They began to divide their troops into three groups and attack the island of Persia, the city of Lyrnaes and the city of Thebes in Boeotia at the same time.

Agamemnon's life or death is unknown, but Menelaos is still alive. This Spartan king, who is the victim, commands his army and continuously launches attacks on the three islands.

But every attack was doomed to failure.

In three days, Xia Lang further improved the defensive capabilities of the city-states near Troy. Although he could not rebuild the city, he was able to continuously strengthen the height and defense of the city walls with objects such as quick-drying cement purchased from the chat group.

Then, more defensive equipment will be deployed on the city walls.

Soon, as the first wave of arrows rained down on the Greek army, casualties began to increase.

However, this is obviously not just the case.

At this moment, under the city of Thebes, there were slingshots being pushed forward, but on the net bags of the slingshots were not stones, but oil jars filled with some kind of liquid.

After igniting the cloth strips stuffed on the oil tank, the flames slid in an arc as they were thrown into the air, and then instantly exploded in the Greek army formation!

The burning water exploded and spread among the crowd, and the flames spread in an instant. The Greek soldiers who were contaminated by the flames and "water" wailed and tried to put out the flames.

But they couldn't do it, and whether they jumped into the sea or tried to bury the flames with the sand under their feet, the effect was extremely poor.

Soon, the morale of the Greek soldiers who were besieging and attacking Thebes collapsed. They shouted the name of Hephaestus and fled in fear to their own warships.

Even if a very small number of people came to the city wall, what could these soldiers in the classical era do facing the 20-meter-high city wall recast with cement and reinforced concrete?

They besieged the earth and stone walls of Tyrion for ten years and failed to take them, let alone a wall like this?

Even if they tried to climb up using ladders, what awaited them was the foul-smelling golden juice poured down from the city walls.

These foul-smelling siege weapons come from the reincarnation of cooked human grains and will not only burn the body when poured over it, but will also infect the humans of this era with an incurable poison.

The siege of Thebes lasted seven days, but nothing was accomplished.

The same situation also happened in other cities of Troy.

All the Greek soldiers who tried to besiege and attack these cities were hit by various weapons brought by Xia Long that were beyond this era.

The military formations and tactics of the classical era were completely useless in the face of these tools. They could only be repelled again and again amid widespread screams, and then their morale collapsed and they fled.

Then the high-spirited Trojan warriors who rushed out of the city could easily cut off the invaders' heads.

Troy won victory after victory, and the Greeks suffered defeat again and again.

Xia Lang's reputation in Troy continued to grow, and the enthusiasm of the Trojan people was unprecedentedly high. They had no doubt that they would completely repel these Greek bandits.

But he didn't feel happy at all.

The more victories he gained, the more he felt an unspeakable fear. What Odysseus said to him that day made Xia Lang feel an unprecedented panic.

Panic drove him to forge his own new weapons and equipment in the workshop. He refused the king's banquet and devoted himself to his work.

He was indeed constantly reaping the benefits. The soldiers fighting with the weapons in his workshop and the engineering equipment on the city walls were earning him more points every moment.

A large amount of precious materials were exchanged and put into new forging. Better weapons and armor were produced one by one from the automatic assembly line, and more materials were invested in the forging of the most powerful equipment!

Time passed like this for another thirteen days.

And on this day, a piece of terrible bad news broke into Xia Lang's workshop, waking him up from his obsession with forging.

The island of Persia and the city of Lyonnais were suddenly captured.

……

When Xia Lang, who had no time to tidy himself up and looked a little disheveled, hurried to the palace, he saw Hector with a solemn expression and the silent old king.

"What happened? How did the Greeks suddenly capture two cities?"

Xia Lang's face was gloomy, and he asked angrily without caring about etiquette. In his opinion, this was something that should never and could never happen!

"They are the Danea people, and they are led by Daeas."

Paris next to him answered the question first, with confusion and disbelief.

"The survivors reported that it was Ajax the Great who led the Greeks to capture both cities. He broke down the gates of the city walls, destroyed our weapons, and then... captured both cities."

Paris was very confused because he had met Ajax the Great and many Greek heroes at a party in Athens.

But in Paris's opinion, these heroes were not much stronger than them. They did not have the legendary divine power, the artifacts they obtained in the stories, or the omnipotent magical powers.

But just like that, the beginning of Troy's victory was cut short in an instant.

"...Now is not the time to waste time. We must defend Thebes, otherwise Troy will be completely blockaded by the Greek coalition forces and we will completely lose the ocean!"

Xia Lang found the map, drew two circles on the parchment, and said in a deep voice:

"Moreover, we must prepare for the worst! Your Majesty Priam, we must immediately send the people of Tyrion out of here and take them to the mountains of Asia Minor for refuge!"

In fact, the situation was not that bad, but Xia Lang was a typical defeatist strategist. He was prepared for the worst possible outcome.

The old king seemed even more decadent and quiet. He just nodded slowly, agreeing with Xia Lang's approach.

The order was given to Prince Paris, and although he was extremely reluctant, he still obeyed it obediently.

Many people in Tyrion were bewildered and left their hometowns with their food and property, cattle and sheep. They did not understand what was happening, but looked devoutly and confusedly into the depths of the high palace.

They were looking at their king and prince, and also at the demigod hero they revered.

There was nothing to say, Xia Lang and Hector had to rush to the front immediately. Xia Lang launched the war machine he had rebuilt during his time in the workshop.

Well, he didn't make them. Most of his materials were put into more focused things. The thirteen cannons he made were all made from the basic material frames he bought from the Baki world, and then roughly processed.

Artillery versus Greek soldiers of the slave age, no matter how you look at it, the balance of victory should be tilted towards Troy.

But for Xia Lang, that damn feeling of uneasiness never dissipated.

the next day, early morning

Troy's most elite troops have been assembled and are gathering at the gates of Thebes in Boeotia.

Because of Xia Lang's evil plan, the Trojans had enough opportunities to assemble their troops, and at this moment, the number of troops gathered had reached several thousand.

Each Trojan warrior was dressed in iron armor and held spears and weapons that were beyond the times. They were Troy's elite cavalry and the country's greatest offensive force.

But on the other hand, the Greeks also got another chance to rest and regroup.

Looking at the sails gathered on the blue sea as if to fill up the space, Hector took a deep breath, faced all the troops ready to go, and issued the final mobilization before the war.

The brave prince rode his horse to the front of the soldiers and said in a deep voice:

"I have followed a principle throughout my life. This principle is very simple: worship God, love my wife and children, and love my country."

Amid the roar of the warriors, Hector's voice gradually grew louder.

"Troy is our mother, fight to the death for her!!!"

"Fight to the death!!!"

The war horses galloped towards the bright yellow beach, towards the Greek warships and camps gathered in front of the beach!

The morale of the Trojan warriors was high, while the Greeks were cowering in fear.

After being forced to jump off the warship, rush onto the beach and charge at Thebes, they were greeted by artillery shells exploding in the air like thunder!

Fire and thunder, all they saw was this moment, shouting the name of Zeus but being knocked down and shattered by the explosion that shot up into the sky, row after row of Greek soldiers falling and dying meaninglessly like straw.

Thirteen cannons bombarded the Greek soldiers who tried to attack the city walls, and also bombarded the warships near the sea. The number of casualties kept increasing, and the morale of the Greeks kept falling.

But at this moment, a tall and burly figure rushed onto the beach on a dark warship.

He was as big as a giant, wearing a cape made of lion skin. He rushed onto the beach, followed by black-armored soldiers like him!

A cannonball fell in his direction, and just when it was about to blow him and the soldiers behind him into the sky, the giant raised the huge bronze shield covered with animal skin in his right hand!

boom! ! !

There was an earth-shaking roar, and when the smoke dissipated, the warrior holding the giant shield was safe and sound.

The soldiers around him were greatly encouraged and shouted his name, "Great Aiyas! Great Aiyas!"

However, Xia Lang on the city wall had turned pale.

Because now, he can finally be sure.

He raised his head and looked at the sky, as if he saw an invisible mountain there, which made him let out a bitter sound.

"God, it's time to go down."

Volume 94: Xia Lang's Various Time Travels: Chapter 91 . [Troy] Hector and Ajax the Great

【Martial Arts (Jin Yong)】: I’m awesome! There are wall hangings!

[Baki (H)]: I'm super! Blazing Sky Covers Seventh Ring!

The two Xia Langs who were watching the live broadcast of the Trojan War in the chat group exclaimed. This originally uninteresting war suddenly became confusing.

Although it is still unclear what the background of this damn Troy world is, one thing is certain - he is definitely not the one in history or the movie starring Brad Pitt.

[Baki (H)]: Could it be from which version of the trilogy?

He has watched a lot of movies about Troy during this period. Unlike most people in China who only know the version starring Brad Pitt, Hollywood also made a trilogy version of the Trojan War.

This trilogy of movies is basically an adaptation of David Gemmell's "Troy: Fall of Kings", and unlike Brad Pitt's film which basically has no magical elements, this version of the trilogy Troy movie largely restores the original story.

There were golden apples and magical heroes, and although there were no gods themselves involved in the fight, there were obviously elements of gods present.

And of course it is possible that this Troy world is the same as the one in the original book, and the game of the gods...

[Western Fantasy (Troy)]: If it were the original version... I really don’t know how to win.

The Trojan War's second creation in Greek mythology is equivalent to the second creation of The Investiture of the Gods in Chinese mythology. This is a legendary war that truly exceeds most stories in Greek mythology.

Not only did the warring parties involve hundreds of famous demigod heroes, but also countless real large-scale legion battles. In the original novel, Troy was not the only one involved, but also involved almost all the city-states in Asia Minor.

They received help from Ethiopia, brought in the queen of the Amazon, and countless demigods to help them participate in the war.

This was especially true for the Greek side, where almost all the city-states that had appeared in Greek mythology came out to help. It can be said that except for heroes from the Age of Gods such as Hercules and Perseus who were too "old" and had already met their own endings, almost all the heroes of the next generation participated in this war.

In some versions, there are even scenes where the heroes of the Age of Gods who have been named constellations are pulled down to fight each other.

Of course, what’s more important is that, just like the second creation of the War between Shang and Zhou in The Investiture of the Gods brought out a group of gods, the real weight of the Trojan War was the situation that brought a large number of gods to the battlefield!

In the Trojan War, almost all the Olympian gods really rolled up their sleeves and fought in person. In the beginning, the gods cheated for their favorite heroes, and after the hero Tenelos, who was blessed by Athena, injured the incarnation of Aphrodite with a spear, the gods went straight into the battle!

Then, with Athena and Ares personally taking action, the situation got completely out of control.

Athena, Ares, Aphrodite, Poseidon, Hera, Apollo - basically most of the Twelve Olympian gods came out to fight each other.

Moreover, they were obviously really angry. Not only did they transform themselves into heroes to join the war, their real bodies intervened, and they even released many of their demigod offspring to join the war. This was especially true for Poseidon, as many of his offspring participated in the Trojan War on both sides.

In the end, Zeus, who could no longer bear the consequences, ordered the gods not to help either side, which brought the Trojan War back to the perspective of mortals - but even so, these gods would occasionally drop some blessings to interfere with the war, using their blessings to help heroes reverse the situation, or guiding someone's weapon to kill a hero.
