At this moment, Nadir Shah raised his hand slightly, and soon, the man who had just spoken was picked up by two soldiers and carried away.
However, the man was carried away by the soldiers and his head was chopped off, and he had no idea what he had done wrong.
Only the two generals who were slightly away from Nadir Shah shook their heads slightly.
"The King of Kings recently executed someone in his palace who proposed an alliance with Holy Egypt."
"Today, there are still such fools who bring up Holy Egypt again, even when they are talking about the King of Kings being the most powerful leader in history."
The two of them didn't continue talking here.
Of course, everyone here would just think that he was a stupid guy.
Then, Nadir Shah's thoughts drifted to the unknown battlefield in the distance.
There were the Greeks and the Acropolis of Athens that he had always dreamed of.
By the afternoon, the front section of the Persian army still had not completely passed through.
Now, it was the transport vehicles rumbling forward, each loaded with food and weapons.
Some strong and hideous creatures pulled huge siege engines, which were even taller than ordinary houses.
Craftsmen and military personnel followed closely behind, providing a steady stream of technical support and supplies to the front line.
"King of kings."
A scout came galloping on horseback, dismounted and knelt on one knee.
"The vanguard has reached the other side, and the local governor has offered tribute and expressed the highest respect."
Apparently, the Persian army had just arrived on the other side when some people began to surrender to Nadir Shah.
And those who surrendered were able to receive protection from Nadir Shah.
So, Nadir Shah nodded.
"very good."
"Pass the order on. All places that cooperate with our military operations will be appropriately rewarded."
"But for those who dare to resist..."
Nadir Shah did not need to finish his words, because everyone present understood what the unfinished words represented.
Kill and conquer.
At dusk, the army continued to march.
That's right, until now, the front part of the Persian army has not been able to completely pass through the pontoon bridge.
And now, it was the "special" forces from the outer reaches of the empire that were passing through.
Giant war elephants, brown-skinned archers, spearmen throwing spears.
There, each branch of the army represents a nation that the Persian Empire once conquered.
Now, they were all on this great march, demonstrating their strength to Nadir Shah.
At night, bonfires and the bright moon illuminate the floating bridge.
For this march, the Persians invented a special night marching lamp that would not go out in the sea breeze or cause a fire.
In the light, the soldiers knew one thing clearly.
They were now part of the great Persian Empire.
They are an invincible army.
That is the supreme honor.
Nadir Shah ordered dinner to be served to him, but he only tasted a few bites in the end.
His entire attention was focused on his army.
This was an unprecedented naval and land force, crossing the other side via a floating bridge.
Nadir Shah sat and watched the battle, and saw his army passing through the pontoon bridge like a tide for seven days and seven nights.
It was not until the evening of the seventh day, when the last baggage train passed the pontoon bridge, that Nadir Shah finally stood up and prepared to give the final order.
"Cross the bridge."
At this time, Nadir Shah's chariot of the King of Kings began to move slowly on the pontoon bridge.
Nadir Shah would occasionally look out the window of his chariot at the floating bridge on the ground.
He nodded slightly, which meant that he also felt that this was a very great project.
Around Nadir Shah, some generals were expressing their views on the battle.
When he reached the other side, Nadir Shah got off his chariot and turned to look at the pontoon bridge.
At this time, an engineer involved in the construction proudly introduced it to Nadir Shah.
"God of Gods, King of Kings, this bridge is wide enough for four chariots to travel side by side."
“We use specially made waterproof ropes that won’t break even in the worst weather conditions.”
Nadir Shah bent down and picked up a handful of soil from the bridge surface, letting it trickle through his fingers.
"Tell those engineers they have rendered great service to the Empire."
"Give each of them a set of gold and silver utensils."
The engineer was overjoyed when he heard this. He kept hitting his forehead against the ground to express his loyalty and gratitude to Nadir Shah.
When darkness fell completely, Nadir Shah ordered torches to be lit on both sides of the pontoon bridge.
Under the illumination of the blazing flames, this extraordinary bridge connecting the two continents is like a fire dragon, closely linking Asia and Europe.
"Persian Empire!"
"Glory! Return to the Persian Empire!"
I don't know who shouted this slogan first, but it soon turned into thunderous cheers.
Nadir Shah set foot on the European continent amid cheers.
And his army also began to advance with a rumbling sound.
The army advanced slowly along the coast, its sheer size taking your breath away.
The miles-long military formation was like a giant steel python, winding its way through the mountains, rivers and valleys.
If you watch from a distance, you will immediately notice that this giant steel python seems to have no end.
In addition to the troops on land, there are hundreds of warships sailing on the sea.
Every Persian could clearly see the endless imperial soldiers by simply turning his head.
"Forward! Forward!"
Every morning, when the sun shines on the military camp, thousands of bronze shields will reflect the sunlight at the same time, forming a dazzling sea of light.
On a sunny afternoon, a delegation of more than fifty Thracian nobles came to meet the emperor.
They were dressed in rich furs and silks and adorned with gold ornaments.
However, their expressions revealed a hint of worry.
The leading tribal leader bowed respectfully and presented his gift.
A gift of surrender to the other side, to Nadir Shah.
It was a gorgeously decorated silver dagger and several bottles of fine wine.
"Great Nadir Shah, the tribes of Thrace unite to pay their respects to you."
He spoke in broken Persian, not even using the common language.
"We have heard of your great reputation and know that your army is invincible."
"We are willing to offer our complete loyalty and obedience, and only ask that you protect us."
"Great, King of Kings."
After saying that, several people knelt on the ground and put their foreheads on the ground.
However, the person who spoke was not very skillful in his movements. Obviously, this was the first time he had done such a movement.
Nadir Shah sat upright on a gorgeous chair and listened to the other party's words with an expressionless face.
"Stand up."
"Have you ever had any dealings with the Greeks before?"
