To Four Thousand Years Later - v2 Chapter 22
After leaving the city of Haifa, it is not far from the port of Tire. That’s right, Tire Port is now the royal city of Tire, and it is no longer the old city of Tire. I don’t know when it started, the king’s capital of Tire has moved westward to the island of Cyprus.
In the past nine hundred years, Tire has really changed a lot.
Some roads from nine hundred years ago are now farmland. The forest has been greatly reduced and roads have been opened up. The several urban areas that passed by have also expanded their residential areas outwards a lot. Hearing that the **** tree was interested in the events of the nine hundred years, Peter was also very active in telling **** the history that he kept in mind—he was very happy that he could help **** joy. It’s just that there are some things that are a bit embarrassing to mention in front of the parties involved. “The country of Israel was divided up by Tire and Egypt soon after you passed away. Peter coughed lightly and glanced at **** unnaturally:” What started this event, yes. King of Gaza.
“It’s okay, let’s continue talking. **** nodded peacefully and signaled Peter to continue speaking. Seeing that **** didn’t care, Peter felt relieved a little and continued speaking.
Roughly speaking, at that time, under very organized and intelligent political propaganda, Gaza received the support of nine governors of Israel less than half a year after Solomon’s death.
Wait until Solomon II and Neferet react. Less than 30% of the vast land of Israel is left to them. The only consolation is. The horse farm opened by King Solomon has not been taken by Gaza. This allowed the Egyptians to directly obtain nearly 10,000 high-quality war horses, as well as a large number of short horses that could be used as tall and draft animals.
Is the horse farm the one in Hebron? **** asked with great interest: “Speaking of which, after I left the ground, is there anyone still operating the racecourse?” “
This racecourse was indeed opened by Solomon. One year, he crossed the horse he bought from the Pharaoh with the tall horse of the Tyreans, trying to breed a better breed. But after all, he didn’t know the relevant knowledge, and he didn’t actually have any needs—so Solomon just kept them together for the time being, and didn’t care about it after ordering the general work. Hearing what Peter said, maybe the crossbred horse has been cultivated? Asked by Jesus, Peter nodded immediately, and replied skillfully: “Yes, my king. Your son. His Majesty Solomon II inherited your work and cultivated a very good Solomon 1. After that, not even a single rule left by King Solomon was changed, and the horse farm continued to operate.
Twenty years later, he was lucky enough to get a batch of high-quality war horses that were stable in Yuchuan. To commemorate my father. Solomon II named the most handsome, big, and fighting horse among them Solo “Since then, the Egyptians have sold horses, grain, papyrus, and handicrafts to Tire. And we have sold them timber, ore, from Some things imported from overseas, as well as iron farm tools made by our blacksmiths. Peter explained to **** in detail.
As a result, after the annexation of Israel, the neighboring countries of Tire and Egypt, relying on the Three Kingdoms Covenant signed in the past, both carried out peaceful development at a very fast speed.
Unfortunately, when the Assyrians from the east came to invade. It happened to hit the historical high point of Tire’s military power.
The menacing Assyrians were directly beaten by the well-trained defenders of Tire and Egypt. Even the Thoth army in Egypt took the opportunity to counterattack, fought back all the way, and occupied several cities in Assyria. After the Assyrians were repelled, the king of Tire took a breather for a few years, and immediately sent troops to attack Asia Minor , Killed Urartu King Sarduri. And in the three places where he was in office, he occupied Cyprus and Crete, and used them as outposts to slowly invade the Greek city-states northward. Because Hiram, the king of Tyre, was interrupted by Solomon when he wanted to colonize the west coast of the Mediterranean Sea, this directly led to the failure of Carthage to be established. On the contrary, it was a coincidence that the Romans established a colonial regime in the Gulf of Tunisia. So Rome was able to develop rapidly. While Tyre was attacking Greece from the south to the north, the Romans also attacked Greece from the east at the same time, and quickly occupied the city of Athens, capturing one-third of Greece. After Tire annexed a small half of Greece, it finally reached its heyday. But after that, Tire came under the rule of a tyrant, and the peoples of the remote island of Crete and the neighboring regions of Greece staged successive uprisings.
“It just so happened that at that time, Alexander, a military tribune from the province of Macchi, led a legion to easily retake Greece and Crete from Tire. Under the support of the rebel army, he went all the way He fought from west to east to Asia Minor. On the contrary, more and more people fought. His reputation in Rome was getting higher and higher. Some people even said that he would become the youngest Peter in the history of the Roman Republic. **** was very surprised when he said: “You are Say Alexander? “He really realized that history has been changed by him.
What’s wrong? “
Peter asked **** strangely. **** nodded quickly. Signal him to continue. Although history has taken some subtle, humorous turns, Alexander still seems to be the same Alexander.
“Alexander is said to be the child of the demigod Achilles. He was taught and raised by the high priest of the Temple of Magongli since he was a child. The status of his teacher Aristotle is basically equivalent to our central high priest. You may think that **** didn’t understand, so Peter added an explanation: “After your wise proverbs were passed to Rome through the king of Gaza, they regarded you as the reincarnation of Mercury, and the Greeks called you the **** Hermes. “I heard that the great sage Aristotle received the oracle of Mercury. Mercury said that he put the son of Achilles before him, and asked Aristotle to teach the baby and raise him. grew up. Peter said in detail: “So Aristotle hurried out to have a look, and found that in the storm, Alexander was in the swaddling clothes of animal skins, lying in front of his door without crying, making trouble, or getting cold. After seeing Aristotle, he pointed and giggled. Aristotle knew immediately that the child was extraordinary. “
Under the teaching of Aristotle, his clever and brave godson Alexander almost became a nightmare for the people of Tyre.
At the age of seventeen, Alexander liberated Crete and Greece. He also led a Roman legion under his command, and two legions composed of Cretan and Greek rebels to advance by sea and land, and cooperated with the people of Tyre, who had long been dissatisfied with the king of Tyre, to occupy three parts of Tire in one go. One-fifth of the leaders, the army besieged the city of Tire for a year and a half.
“After the repairs were completed, Alexander led the Tyreans who conquered the area, marched from north to south, and within three months, he penetrated Upper Egypt. The Pharaoh Solomon VII of that generation was decisive enough: he led the way to the bottom in Alexander. At the time of Bis, Alexander was awarded the pharaoh’s double crown outside the north gate, and immediately held a canonization ceremony for him, acknowledging that he was the appointed pharaoh. Such behavior was completely incomprehensible back then. Even as the Solomon dynasty The last king of the law, Solomon VII, was scolded by the people.
But also because of his surrender without a fight, Egypt managed to retain most of its cultural buildings, including the Temple of Solomon in Thebes. Peter sighed: “I heard that Alexander was surrounded by more than a dozen assassins and shot continuously with poisoned crossbows. He was hit by more than 20 arrows back and forth, and he drew his sword and cut himself off. Chase the arrows for half a street and kill all the assassins.”
Afterwards, he returned to the temple where he was assassinated, shouted at Bacchus for the actions of the senators in BC, and cursed the gods who did not see the injustice. Then, after drinking a bucket of divine wine for Bacchus, he committed suicide in front of the statue with the sword given by his adoptive father, and sprayed his blood on the statue. “
“Alexander was finally buried with the standards of a consul. On the day of his burial, the temple was completely burned down by a thunderbolt. Three elders were killed by a thunderbolt on a sunny day at the funeral!”
“As it turned out, they were the ones who murdered the consul of Alexandria.
