All this shocked the high priest!
Wang is right!
The real Persia is indeed a terrifying enemy, just like the simulation on the king’s sandbox!
The king exchanged Alexandros from Troy, and I am afraid that it is really like his sandbox simulation, and he plans to launch a counterattack against Persia from this port!
only.
When playing the sandbox simulation, no matter which country on the Greek side you start with, by the time of the decisive battle with Persia, you will have already integrated at least half of Greece's territory and military strength.
In the present Stobi, even the Great North is not yet completely unified, and the ocean-going fleet has not yet been formed.
Is it really okay to go to war with Persia so early?
The high priest was really unsure what the king was thinking!
Do I have the most say?
What can I say?
Are you saying I'm really unlucky?
Live in Stobi, threatened by Macedonia!
Live in Botaitia and be threatened by Eubia!
Lives in Thasos, threatened by Adelcia!
Now I have come all the way to Alexandria and am threatened by the Persian Empire!
This world is really not peaceful anywhere!
When will I be able to collect nine king's hearts and escape from this damn place?
"As long as you have love in your heart, you will be happy no matter where you are! Now that you are here, you should make the best of it. Although Persia is strong, they are also a group of people, no different from us. Why should you be afraid? Prime Minister and that scientist, you should evaluate the long-distance navigation performance of the sea fortress as soon as possible and make changes where necessary. This is the real business!" Xia Zhe answered with a stiff upper lip.
Of course I know that the Persian Empire was extremely powerful.
However, since you will be threatened wherever you go, it’s better not to bother for the time being.
Stay here first, rest for a few days and enjoy the exotic atmosphere.
When the Persian army really comes one day, it won’t be too late to run away!
All I have to do is to inspect and resupply my sea fortress just like I did in Thasos, and keep it ready for action at any time.
"yes!"
The Prime Minister and Archimedes saluted in response.
Xia Zhe's answer seemed irrelevant to the question, but it immediately calmed everyone present.
Sure enough, Wang knew it long ago!
The king came to Alexandria for an inspection. Ostensibly, he was testing the performance of the sea fortress, but secretly he must be selecting a landing point for the army!
Although Stobi does not have the strength to challenge the Persian Empire now, with Stobi's expansion speed, it may be able to fight in the future!
The king plans ahead and thinks ahead of everything.
With him behind the scenes, what is there to be afraid of?
The briefing ended quickly in a peaceful atmosphere.
The Prime Minister and Archimedes immediately set about improving some minor defects exposed by the sea fortress during its ocean voyage.
Through improvements, the performance of the Sea Fortress has become more stable.
Archimedes and his group of veteran craftsmen have already begun compiling the design materials into a booklet to facilitate mass production later on.
As for the high priest, his job was still diplomacy and keeping the people safe.
After taking Alexandria and the surrounding areas, it goes without saying that it borders Troy to the north and west.
To the south, along the coastline, there are some small city-states bordering on it.
In order to expand Alexandria's warning range, the high priest established diplomatic relations with the southern cities.
Soon, the news that the Persian army had captured Miletus and then turned north along the coastline was confirmed.
Over the years, it is no longer a new thing for Persia to attack the Greek city-states on the eastern coast of the Aegean Sea.
But the high priest keenly felt that this attack was completely different from previous ones.
For the first time, the number of Persian troops heading north exceeded 500,000, even reaching the million mark!
This is not harassment at all, but a real siege and seizure of cities and territory, seeking a decisive battle with the main force!
After arriving in Asia Minor, the high priest had already investigated the helplessness of the city-states on the east coast of the Aegean Sea through visits and inquiries.
When Troy was still the leader of the Eastern city-states, Troy would always come to the rescue whenever Persia expanded.
The tug-of-war with Persia was evenly matched, and we even won a few times!
However, thirty years ago, the newly crowned King of Troy, young and impetuous, made a grave mistake.
Regardless of the disparity in strength, he rashly sent the main force of the Trojan Eastern Legion to expedition to Canaan.
I want Persia to experience the feeling of being beaten!
As a result, an army of more than 1.5 million was suddenly surrounded by Persians, who were several times their number, at the edge of the Gobi Desert.
After more than forty days of bloody fighting, we were unable to withdraw!
The main force of Troy's Eastern Legion, along with the coalition forces of seventeen small city-states, were completely destroyed.
The Eastern Alliance with Troy as its core also collapsed because of this battle and became a historical term.
Since then, the combat power of the two sides on the east coast of the Aegean Sea has been completely unbalanced!
If Troy had not relied on its naval superiority to harass the coast, the Persian army would not have dared to approach the coastline.
I'm afraid that Greek city-states no longer exist on the eastern coast of the Aegean Sea.
Thirty years passed in the blink of an eye.
Persia is now even more powerful!
The current Persian king, Xerxes, was a great leader who devoted all his efforts to developing the navy. They had overcome their weakness of being strong in land warfare but weak in naval warfare.
A few days ago, the thousand-year-old city of Miletus fell. The navy was annihilated first and then the city was captured!
Now, the Persian army dares to move north along the coastline, they must be very confident in their navy!
Having taken over the mess left by Troy, the high priest was very nervous and couldn't think of any way to fight back!
Even though Stoby's overall national strength has surpassed Troy, it is still extremely weak in the frozen east!
