The ancient city-state world is very similar to the ancient Greek city-state era, but it is hundreds of times larger than the historical ancient Greece.
The city-state where he was king was not Athens, the capital of art, Sparta, the city of war, Delphi, the sacred city, Olympia, the top of the world, Troy, the city of romance, or Crete, the continent of pleasure.
This city-state is called Stobi, and Xia Zhe has never heard of it!
After he woke up again, he recited the difficult-to-pronounce name more than ten times before he finally remembered it.
This city-state is very small.
There were no markings on the large map that covered the entire wall.
It was only by someone deliberately putting a dot with a red pen that its location was indicated.
Staring at this yellowed old map, Xia Zhe's heart was filled with emotions.
He was so familiar with this map, having played it countless times on the computer.
Xia Zhe knew.
The red dot is located on the border between civilized and barbaric societies.
To the east and south is the territory of the Pan-Hellenic Macedonians.
To the west and north, there are several barbarian tribes.
When playing the game, as long as Xia Zhe chose to start with Macedonia, he would give priority to taking this unknown small town in the northwest.
Simply because this is a strategic point between two mountains and a river valley!
Also, this small town's military strength is too weak to withstand a single blow!
Just send out two of the lowest-level fully-strength legions and they can take it down.
After traveling to the real world of ancient city-state, he actually became the king of this weak city!
Xia Zhe felt that he had definitely entered the extremely difficult mode!
Xia Zhe has also sorted out the memories of the 20-year-old king who was possessed.
In this world, King Philip of Macedonia also intended to get involved in the city of Stobi.
Last year, in a battle with the Macedonian army, King Stobi was killed!
Then, Wang’s three elder brothers also died in battle one by one at the beginning of the year!
There are no other men in the royal family.
Therefore, this good-for-nothing who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun had to ascend the throne.
As soon as he ascended the throne, the useless king submitted a letter of surrender directly to the Macedonian garrison on the eastern border.
The family’s hundreds of years of foundation are gone!
I just want to be a wealthy man with no worries about food and clothing!
Unfortunately, the flower has its own intentions, but the water is indifferent. The governor of the garrison replied clearly and directly: follow the rules set by the King of Macedonia!
Philip had already made a rule that the royal families of the conquered small city-states must be completely eliminated!
Otherwise, it will be detrimental to subsequent rule!
Unexpectedly, surrendering could not save his life. The Waste King was terrified and had no choice but to run away.
However, not long after they ran out of the city, the guards were attacked by a group of bandits.
In a panic, the Waste King fell out of the sedan chair and died instantly.
It is also because of this that Xia Zhe was able to completely possess the body and take over everything of the original owner.
"This is the wheat cake I started making at two in the morning. It's fresh out of the oven and will be helpful for your recovery! Please enjoy it, my king!"
A sweet female voice interrupted Xia Zhe's thoughts.
Turning to look at the door, he saw a beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes, holding a plate of wheat cakes and staring at him with admiration.
Seeing this, Xia Zhe frowned and a hint of doubt arose in his heart.
Of course he recognized this girl; she was one of the king's maids, named Lillian.
When the Waste King was still a prince, he had bullied and teased Lillian a lot. Lillian had always been very disgusted with him and tried her best to avoid him!
What happened today?
She actually got up in the middle of the night to make wheat cakes, and ran to the study happily, asking me to taste them?
Could it be that he poisoned me and wanted to kill me while I was sick?
"What are you doing?" Xia Zhe asked.
"Three days ago, my king defeated the enemy army with just one instruction, creating a miracle. The news spread throughout the city! You let everyone see the long-lost hope again! You are the hero in Lillian's heart!" Lillian replied with a blushing face.
Defeated the enemy? When did I defeat the enemy?
Xia Zhe was surprised, but didn't want to ask any further questions.
That brief moment of clarity did not last until we achieved a decisive victory over the enemy.
He was not aware of what happened later.
"Put the wheat cakes there first. Is there anything else? If not, please leave." Xia Zhe instructed, pointing to the large round table.
"yes!"
Lillian lowered her brows in response and placed the plate on the table.
Then, she bowed and spoke again.
"Our king is no longer seriously ill. All the ministers have jointly submitted a petition requesting that our king attend today's meeting!"
Meeting of business?
Hearing this word, Xia Zhe's heart tightened.
As a king, it is natural for him to participate in meetings.
However, he had been king for less than half a month and had only participated in two meetings.
One was to discuss sending envoys to the Macedonian garrison in the east to discuss terms of surrender.
Another time, a few days ago, he summoned his guards under the pretext of hunting and planned to escape.
The atmosphere during both meetings was awkward, and even an idiot could see the contempt of the ministers.
The escape plan obviously failed.
At this time, the ministers still invite me to participate in the meeting. Are they planning to dismiss me?
Xia Zhe muttered in his heart.
But when he thought about it carefully, he felt happy again unconsciously.
As the saying goes, fortune and misfortune are interdependent.
If he is really dismissed, it is not a bad thing, but a great thing!
This world is not a world where kings are granted by God.
If the king is unworthy, the people can depose the old king and elect a new consul.
In fact, the grandfather of the good-for-nothing king’s grandfather was able to ascend to the throne by deposing the original king.
Although the royal family members who were dismissed by the citizens could save their lives, they would completely lose their qualifications to govern!
Even if he wanted to make a comeback, he wouldn't get anyone's support.
