On this day, Xia Zhe was quite bored and was missing the new sandbox in Botaitia.
Suddenly, Spartacus came to report that a personal letter from the queen had arrived.
A handwritten letter from the Queen?
Hearing this, Xia Zhe's heart tightened.
Could it be that Yina blames me for never going back and is going to get mad?
It’s not my fault!
Who told the Prime Minister and his men to build the fleet so slowly?
If the fleet could be formed sooner, I would dare to go back!
Otherwise, if Eubia or Macedonia attacks me, won’t I be dead?
While thinking this, Xia Zhe unfolded the letter paper.
After watching it only once, he suddenly became excited!
What!
Has the situation in the Great North changed so much?
This kid Achilles has taken over most of Central Thrace and is now bordering Troy!
I was so scared that I was worried that Ubia, who was trapped in Botaitia, would be finished!
What’s even more exaggerated is that Alexander wants to surrender!
What kind of magical operation is this?
True or false?
"Macedonia actually wants to surrender. What do you think about this?"
Subconsciously raising the letter in his hand, Xia Zhe asked Spartacus.
"Isn't that a very normal thing?" Spartacus replied.
He is not an old man of Stobi. When he joined Stobi, Stobi's strength had already surpassed Macedonia.
Spartacus was not at all surprised by Macedonia's surrender.
Macedonia kept holding on like this, and the king never attacked it, which made Spartacus feel very strange.
"Is the country I rule already that powerful?"
After hearing Spartacus's answer, Xia Zhe seemed a little dazed.
Thrace and Serendipity had been conquered, and Persia did not know why it remained inactive.
With the surrender of Macedonia and the demise of Eubia, Stobius actually gained a rare peace!
So, I can get back to playing games!
When Xia Zhe thought of the sand table that was ten times larger than the Botatia Palace, he felt itchy.
What could be more exciting in the world than giving game fans the opportunity to play games?
Without hesitation, Xia Zhe immediately wrote back to Ina, saying that he would return to Botaitia in person to meet Alexander.
When they heard that the king was returning to the capital, the people of Alexandria came to see him off.
Everyone's worry was written on their faces. They were afraid that with the king's departure, the Persian army would return.
After comforting everyone for a long time and leaving Spartacus as governor to preside over Alexandros, Xia Zhe boarded the sea fortress reserved in the port and set off.
Along the way, Xia Zhe was still a little nervous.
After all, Alexander's reputation is too great!
He gave a series of instructions on board.
Achilles and Odysseus were required to lead their armies back to the Great North and assemble at Botaïtia.
Ask Ina to write a letter to Alexander, asking Alexander to meet her in Botaitia in a month.
At the same time, an additional request was made to Ina: all the main forces of Stobi and the allies that could fight were transferred to the vicinity of Botaitia.
Even Ajax, who was far away in Thranda, received the king's letter via carrier pigeon.
They were asked to take the elite troops from all the Seranda tribes and march eastward to join the reunion as soon as possible!
Xia Zhe felt that only in this way could the meeting with Alexander be truly safe!
He also emphasized to several people that quality is more important than quantity!
Xia Zhe doesn't need that kind of mob that went on the expedition to Seranda!
If war with Macedonia really happens.
Only an army with relatively strong combat effectiveness will be helpful in protecting oneself!
Xia Zhe didn't want to encounter the situation where his hometown was almost raided by ten thousand people again.
The journey was smooth.
More than half a month later, Xia Zhe returned to the new capital Botaitia on the sea fortress.
Before this, except for Ajax's Seranda Legion, which was still on the way, the other troops had already arrived in advance!
Achilles brought 250,000 men, and Odysseus brought 150,000.
The main force of Stobi assembled by Ina reached 300,000.
Plus 300,000 elite troops from various vassal states.
There were exactly one million troops concentrated around Botaitia.
Although the number of troops is much smaller than when they first marched on the expedition to Seranda and fought against Adlicia.
But these are elite soldiers with combat capabilities, and are definitely not a mob that disobeys orders and is afraid of death.
After getting off the boat, Xia Zhe inspected the troops and nodded with satisfaction.
He was very relieved!
Stoby is really powerful!
Even when Philip was alive, Macedonia could not muster a million-strong army with such training level!
But now Stoby can mobilize easily!
Plus, my invincible Achilles is here too.
If Alexander surrendered sincerely, that would be fine! But if he harbored evil intentions and planned a surprise attack, the army at hand would definitely be enough to give him a hard time!
Of course, no one understood why Wang mobilized such a large army.
Everyone felt that Macedonia, which had struggled to drive away Eubia's army, was indeed now much weaker than before.
I'm afraid the elite troops Alexander could afford to support were not even 100,000!
There is absolutely no need to do this just to meet Alexander and accept his surrender!
Unless, the king intends to not accept Alexander's surrender and kill him directly. Then he will take advantage of the situation to destroy Macedonia!
When Philip was alive, he was very good at dealing with those city-states that wanted to surrender voluntarily!
Even Alexander himself became a little nervous when he saw Stoby constantly deploying troops.
It was obvious that Macedonia was about to surrender, so why did King Stobi mobilize the army?
Could it be that because the hatred between the two sides was so deep, King Stobi refused to accept Macedonia's surrender?
This doubt made Alexander anxious and worried.
It was not until Ina sent someone to deliver a letter that Alexander felt a little relieved.
Ina didn't understand the king's intention, but she lived with the king every day and knew the king's nature very well.
Wang is not a man who likes to fight. Every time he takes action, he is forced to do so.
Although she did not approve of Alexander, Ina did not want her second hometown, Macedonia, to be ravaged by war.
She wrote to Alexander to warn him.
As long as Alexander sincerely respects King Stobi as his co-lord and has no bad intentions, King Stobi will never harm him!
"I am so sorry for my sister Yina!"
After reading the letter, Alexander sighed to himself.
Although there were no soft words in Ina's letter from beginning to end, it was full of stern warnings.
But Alexander understood that his sister still hoped that Macedonia would take the right path.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have immediately invited King Stobi back from the far east upon receiving her letter, nor would she have deliberately reminded herself at this sensitive moment.
A real man should know the times.
It is impossible to succeed through independent struggle, but it is not impossible to achieve success under the leadership of a benevolent monarch.
Alexander decided to trust Yina this time.
