To show his sincerity, he left without a single legion and rode in a carriage towards Botaitia.
Anyway, Stoby has gathered so many troops. Even if we go with people, we can't win!
In that case, you might as well show your attitude!
really.
Seeing that Alexander came alone with such sincerity, the famous ministers and generals gathered in Botaitia all breathed a sigh of relief.
Xia Zhe was even more moved and came to the front of the car to greet him personally.
"Your Majesty is so wise and far-sighted that Alexander is in awe! I am convinced and willing to entrust the entire power of Macedonia to you. I will only add icing on the cake to Stobi's grand ambitions!"
Seeing Xia Zhe coming to the front of the car to greet him, Alexander felt relieved. He knelt on one knee in front of Xia Zhe and spoke sincerely.
"What nonsense! The world-famous Alexander is willing to join us. It's a blessing from heaven! With you leading my army and taking charge, I can finally rest easy!"
Xia Zhe replied with a smile and reached out to help Alexander up.
Xia Zhe was speaking the truth.
The pressure that Macedonia has put on his heart has made Xia Zhe unable to sleep or eat for the past two years.
Now that it’s really been lifted, I can sleep much more peacefully!
More importantly, Xia Zhe was not confident about his subordinates.
The Prime Minister and the High Priest were old men from the days of the small city-states. They hadn't seen much of the world, and if something serious happened, they wouldn't be counted on.
As for Achilles, Odysseus, and Ajax, although they were young and promising, they were not born into good families after all, and they became successful by playing games with me.
Deep down, Xia Zhe didn't believe how powerful they really were.
Others like Ina and Spartacus are obviously far inferior to the famous Alexander.
If Alexander became his own general, he would be able to stand on his own.
Xia Zhe believes that his life will be much more comfortable!
"This? Your Majesty, you are too kind! In ancient times, generals in charge of the army naturally needed their own direct descendants. I know myself well, and I am very satisfied to be a rich man with no worries about food and clothing."
When Alexander heard Xia Zhe say that he wanted to take charge of the army and be in charge, he was flattered and quickly expressed his feelings.
Choosing to surrender to Stobi was actually a helpless act.
Alexander's greatest psychological expectation was indeed to exchange the little remaining strength of Macedonia for a future life of wealth.
military power?
That will definitely be taken away!
In this life, I am afraid that even the words "use troops" cannot be used casually anymore.
Otherwise, you may be in danger of death at any time!
King Stobi said this as just a gesture and it should not be taken seriously.
Otherwise, you will die here immediately!
In fact, Alexander was not the only one who had this idea.
Many of the civil and military officials present felt that this was a test of Alexander by the king.
If Alexander dared to show even the slightest reluctance to surrender his military power, everyone would rush forward and kill him on the spot!
You don't want to help me lead the troops?
Xia Zhe was stunned when he heard Alexander's answer.
How can this be?
I rushed back from such a far place just to make this big deal happen!
I can only feel at ease when I have the famous Alexander guarding my borders, right?
no.
You must work for me and don't be lazy!
When this came to mind, Xia Zhe planned to say a few harsh words, forcing Alexander to lead the troops honestly and not go home to be a rich man!
Unexpectedly, before he could finish his words, a Macedonian messenger came running over.
"My king, my king, something terrible has happened! The Tinian League, with the cooperation of the traitor Seleucus, has seized the northern entrance of Mount Olympus! Their army, their army is planning to attack Pella!" said the messenger breathlessly.
Tino Alliance!
The Tino Alliance actually intends to get involved in the Great North!
They also captured the northern entrance of Mount Olympus guarded by Macedonia!
Hearing this, all the civil and military officials present felt a chill run down their spines!
The Tenian League was a super alliance deliberately formed by Athens, the largest country in Greece, to fight against Sparta!
The strength of Athens within the alliance was self-evident. Even Boeotia, a subordinate nation within the alliance, was far stronger than Eubia, the strongest enemy they had conquered in the Great North!
Last month, it took them only ten days to completely dismember Eubia!
That terrifying fighting power made everyone worried from the bottom of their hearts!
Of course, the most worried one is Alexander!
Alexander surrendered to Stobi in order to obtain preferential treatment. His greatest advantage was the remaining strength of Macedonia.
He never expected that at this critical moment, Seleucus would stab him in the back!
The loss of the northern entrance to Mount Olympus meant that Macedonia had lost its natural barrier and the initiative in defense!
At that time, Eubia's 800,000-strong army almost brought Macedonia to its demise.
Now that the Tenonian League, which is much more powerful than Eubia, is invading, I am afraid that Macedonia will be destroyed in minutes!
The bargaining chip that he was so proud of suddenly turned into a hot potato!
In order to protect his homeland and avoid angering the Tino Alliance, King Stobi would likely order a comprehensive defense along the border river.
Then, they sent envoys to contact the YETINO alliance for negotiations, trying to reach some kind of compromise and divide the spheres of influence!
"What a shitty Tino Alliance, how dare they come to snatch Macedonia from me at this time? Beat it! Beat it hard!" Xia Zhe said angrily.
Speaking of Athens, Xia Zhe knew it.
Speaking of Pioxia, Xia Zhe also knows it.
