Xia Zhe did not think that everyone had confidence in themselves, but simply attributed it to the power of gold.
After receiving the king's notice, Spartacus dared not neglect it. He immediately wrote to Odysseus and asked him to send 10 million gold coins first.
The Battle of Alexandria had created a miracle. This great news had also reached the ears of Odysseus in Thasos.
Knowing that it was the king who wanted to rebuild Alexandria, Odysseus would of course respond.
Now that Achilles had pacified Central Thrace, the Thracian War was over.
Well, it's time to let gold play its due role.
Without hesitation, Odysseus immediately sent out a fleet carrying a large amount of gold.
A small part of it was sent to Alexandria in the east!
More of them were sent to the new capital of Botaitia under the escort of the Trojan fleet and handed over to Queen Ina.
Yina knew that this was military funding for developing the navy. She didn't touch a single gold coin and deposited it all in the treasury.
Just wait for the Prime Minister and his scientists to return from testing, and then start building the fleet on a large scale.
When people heard that Alexander had wiped out two million Persian troops in one battle, the city of Troy was in an uproar!
From the king to the ministers, everyone praised Hector who had just returned.
Stoby is really awesome, and Troy’s efforts are definitely worth it!
With Stobi resisting Persia in the east of the strait, the entire Eastern world suddenly came alive!
The King of Troy immediately sent an envoy to Alexandria to congratulate the King of Stroby.
At the same time, make a solemn commitment.
As long as Stobi needs it, Troy will change the tradition of the army not crossing the strait and fully cooperate with Stobi in the battle!
Moreover, Troy would never touch any of the lands it had recaptured from the Persians, and would give them all to Strobe!
What is the status of the King of Troy?
He is the supreme leader of one of the five great Greek states!
The King of Troy effectively recognized the supremacy of Stobi in the area east of the strait and also acted as a staunch ally.
This forced the city-states on the eastern coast of the Aegean Sea to think carefully.
Soon, the Eastern countries, led by Lydia, also sent envoys to Alexandria to pay homage to King Stobi!
The Eastern Alliance, which had disappeared for thirty years, was established again!
Only this time, the leader of the alliance was no longer Troy, but Stoby.
Coupled with the people's exaggeration of Thales' prophecy, King Stobi was soon deified.
All the city-states believed that King Stobi could communicate with the sea god and possessed invincible divine power at sea!
Even the Persian King Xerxes had doubts about this.
Both the land and sea armies suffered a crushing defeat. Although Xerxes was furious at first, he was not too nervous.
After all, the Persian army had tens of millions of soldiers. Two million was not enough to cause any serious damage.
He immediately ordered the mobilization of all resources and started building ships at full capacity in all the ports of Canaan!
Xerxes owned no fewer than fifty large shipyards in the Canaan region, spread across more than a dozen port cities!
Even Athens, the strongest country in Greece, did not have such terrifying construction capabilities!
Xerxes believed that as long as he was willing to invest, in at most half a year, he could build an invincible fleet of tens of thousands of warships and sweep away everything.
To avenge the loss of over a thousand ships in the Alexandrian Sea!
However, as he learned more about the battle situation that day and heard the mysterious interpretations from the people, Xerxes became a little worried and ordered the shipbuilding to be stopped again.
Could the curse of the dead Thales be true?
That King Stoby who controls the power of nature in the ocean?
If this is true, no matter how many ships you build, you will only be giving food to your opponents!
To be on the safe side, it would be safer to return to the old path of our predecessor, Darius, and give priority to the development of the army!
What if you have the power of the sea? You still have to live on land!
As long as my army is strong enough, I can always force you to hide!
As for how to conquer Greece if the fleet is too weak.
Xerxes has other tricks up his sleeve!
He secretly developed a fleet in Bartin on the southern coast of the Black Sea.
Although the strength of this fleet was mediocre, they never dared to carry out the original plan of launching a surprise attack on the city of Byzantium.
But Xerxes unexpectedly discovered that the Black Sea was not as vast as the Mediterranean Sea.
The Black Sea has an end to the north.
As long as you take the land route and circle most of the way around the Black Sea, you can get back to the Danube River!
Of course, the road was very long, and there were several terrifying no-man's lands.
Xerxes didn't intend to leave unless it was absolutely necessary!
That was just one of the reasons why he switched his focus to developing the army!
A last hope when it is really impossible to cross the strait!
With this hope, Xerxes had the confidence to build a powerful army!
To this end, Xerxes decided to not only expand the existing three elite military forces, namely the Royal Guards Archers, Parthian Horse Archers and War Elephants, but also expand their size tenfold.
He also wants to learn from his predecessor Darius and rebuild the Undead Legion!
The so-called Undead Legion was the ultimate army that Persia used to sweep across the Medes and cripple Babylon.
To train this terrifying army, you need to put a large number of soldiers into cages and let them fight each other. Only the winner can walk out alive and enter the next round!
After several rounds of such brutal elimination, everyone who wins in the end will be as ferocious as a wolf and as strong as a bear!
If we send a legion like this into battle, we will fight to the death until we achieve our goal!
Because he was worried that such an army would be difficult to control, Xerxes did not want to restore the Undead Legion for a while!
