Chapter 608 Do You Want to Be Crowned King?
The selection of the Medal of the Greeks is either directly decided by the gods, or the gods perform miracles for all Greeks to choose together. Only when the number of supporters exceeds 70% can they be awarded.
Once you have this medal, whoever wants to move Su ye in the future needs to think carefully.
However, these are not important. What is important is that all the recipients of the Greek medals have clearly expressed their belief in gods, and they are all pious citizens.
Su ye is a magician.
Magicians do not oppose the gods, and some are willing to believe in the gods, but they are absolutely impossible to be pious.
What does it mean to award a Greek medal to a person who may not believe in God?
This means that the Greeks do not have to believe in gods!
A sanctuary adjudicator whispered: "Indeed, his merits are sufficient. If he can really defeat Persia, we should apply for Greeks for him. However, the Greeks are very important, and we need all the temples to jointly test them slowly, at least until he Only at the age of 18 can it be officially issued."
Some adjudicators suddenly realized that they all supported Su Ye's application for the Order of the Greeks.
Aldis glanced at those people with disgust, and then said: "Let's go to Thermopylae and set up a temporary court to see who is the culprit who killed the Greek soldiers and who is the murderer who was defeated in Tempe Valley. Who is the real one, the blasphemer!"
The temple carriages in the sky turned and flew away from the small plain.
From the sky, the Persian army has completely occupied the Tempe Valley fortress, and the whole army is resting.
On the road from the Tempe Valley to the small plain, part of the Persian army marched from north to south to Thermopylae.
However, they piled up not far from the small plain, so that the army in the rear had to temporarily stop advancing and stay where they were.
The Persian generals who stayed on the road fell into endless meetings and disputes, and no one knew how to deal with what they called the king of hell.
They sent a message to Tempe Valley Fortress, but they got no response. It seems that Gilgamesh, King of Heroes, went back to sleep in the Palace of Heroes, and no one dared to disturb him at this time.
And Xerxes didn't know when he suddenly disappeared, so hated that the Persian generals could only curse cowards.
In the early morning of the second day, when the sky was getting dark, Su ye led everyone to retreat to Hot Spring Pass, leaving only four soldiers guarding.
They are Di Aotian, Ice and Wind Queens and Deng Shen.
At noon, the Persian camp finally sent an order to continue the pursuit.
Thus, the Persian army began to charge.
Di Aotian didn't talk too much, he kept releasing fire magic, and the impact of the flames burned a lot.
The Ice and Wind Queen used this place as a training ground for fusion magic, constantly using the Ice and Wind dual-element magic. The width of 200 meters was simply not enough for two people, and large areas of hillsides or walls were often blown off.
The lamp god is much more comfortable, only using earth magic, all kinds of large-scale traps, quicksands, swamps, and collapses make the Persian army disgusting. If the enemy destroys the trap and approaches, immediately use boulder impact, earth Explosion, supergravity, trench, etc. are extremely effective in blocking the enemy and not weak in destructive power. With the combination of ice and wind, they can basically trap Persians to death.
With just four small soldiers, the Persians rushed all afternoon and lost more than 50,000 people, but they still did not rush over.
In fact, the destructive power of the four of them is not enough to threaten the golden warriors, especially not enough to threaten the powerful hero guards.
But the problem is that Fenghou's stripping talent is simply the nemesis of all warrior mages. Once encountering a wind attack, all defenses are as fragile as paper.
After another day of delay, the magicians finally made up their minds and consumed extremely expensive magic materials to make windproof cloaks for the thirty heroic guards, which directly isolate the wind magic.
Afterwards, the golden warriors attacked from the mountain wall, descended from the sky, and killed Fenghou.
However, the death of the Queen of Wind enraged the Queen of Bing, and the Queen of Bing immediately aroused the call of the heroic spirit, her body became bigger, and a terrifying frozen ball burst out, freezing all the golden warriors instantly.
Gold is not legendary.
In this section, Feng Hou was revived with the power of magical rebirth, and killed thirty golden warriors with Bing Hou, Deng Shen and Di Aotian.
Seeing this scene, the Persians almost despaired. The Persian lamp god killed the Persian hero guard. What could be more painful than this scene?
Since it was effective for the first time, the Persian army repeated the old trick and sent thirty gold-ranked heroic guards to put on windproof cloaks to kill the Queen of Wind.
After the wind failed to revive again.
Afterwards, the rest of the golden warriors and golden mages swarmed up and killed the Queen of Ice and Di Aotian twice.
The god of the lamp did not live up to expectations. He was resurrected in the lamp after a death, and he could not be resurrected directly on the spot.
Even so, they paid a total of seventy-five gold.
The Persian army, on the road again, finally arrived at Thermopylae.
Thermopylae is one of the most dangerous passes in Greece.
On one side is the towering and straight wall of Mount Romus, which cut off the possibility of the army detour.
On one side is the rocky Maris Bay, which hinders naval assistance.
On this pass is a fortress that has been reinforced for more than half a year. The interior of the mountain wall has even been hollowed out by magicians, enough to station an entire 100,000 troops.
In the narrowest part of Hot Spring Pass, only a dozen or so people could fight side by side.
A crowd of 100,000 is enough to completely saturate the Hot Spring Pass Fortress.
As a result, the camp of the Greek allied forces had to be placed more than ten miles behind Thermopylae, guarding against the old Persian method of using the navy to transport troops to the rear of Thermopylae, and then attacking back and forth to conquer Thermopylae.
On Mount Roms, there is a rugged mountain road leading to the back of Thermopylae, but there has long been a strong fortress that is not inferior to Thermopylae, and it is ten times more difficult to attack there than Thermopylae.
Between the gray stone wall and the blue sea, Thermopylae is like a monster that devours people, quietly looking at the Persians ahead.
The Persian army was so numerous that they could not all appear in front of Thermopylae, so they had to station on a plain more than ten miles away.
Su ye arrived at Hot Spring Pass a day earlier than the Persians.
As soon as I arrived here, I received a great news.
The Tribunal of the Gods conducted an extremely large-scale trial.
The patriarch of a demigod family abdicates.
Three hero families were reduced to legendary families.
Five legendary families and seven sanctuary families were completely abolished, and their descendants would lose their qualifications to be promoted to nobles within a hundred years.
After hearing the news, the members of the dozen or so families wept violently, and some even committed suicide.
Five sanctuary generals were exiled, twelve golden generals had their military merits cleared, and half of the generals in the coalition headquarters were punished to varying degrees.
The news shocked the whole of Greece and the whole world.
It is also the largest ruling in Greece in decades.
Su Ye contacted Wang Dahammer immediately and asked Gorro to purchase the medals, hero statues and related collections of these families.
The entire Allied headquarters remained in command, excluding Thermopylae.
The command of Hot Spring Pass has been appointed by the temple to Miltiades, and Su Ye is the deputy commander, and at the same time, he is still the deputy commander and actual commander of the Knights of the Nation.
Allied headquarters was completely silent.
Mitiade and Suye had become a taboo in the headquarters of the coalition forces. Everyone understood that at least until the end of the Hippo war, these two people were equivalent to the chief priests of the temples.
No more magical messengers flying around, no more complaining generals.
The generals at Thermopylae were smiling all day long, and they were happier than when Xerxes was defeated.
In addition, Hot Spring Pass also received a new piece of good news.
Admiral Themis has led the Greek naval coalition forces to the Hunting God Strait to stop the Persian navy. Prevent the Persian navy from landing behind Thermopylae.
Prior to this, there were also nobles in the naval coalition forces who made troubles, saying that they would never support Suye and Mitiadeh, and then they were beaten up by Demis, their noses and faces were swollen, their clothes were stripped off, and they were kicked out of the navy.
When the Persian horn sounded, Su ye and other generals stood on the inner city wall, looking ahead.
The gray mountain wall stands tall on the left, and the dark blue sea water ripples on the right. On the narrow road ahead, a small group of Persians approach slowly.
The city wall of Wenquanguan was transformed into a three-story white stone structure.
The outer layer is about eight meters high and twenty meters wide. It was full of soldiers, and there were dense crossbows.
After the outer layer is the middle layer, which is twelve meters high and twenty meters wide, and is also full of soldiers and crossbows.
Finally, there is the inner city wall, which is 20 meters high, and is where Su Ye and other generals are located.
On the white inner city wall, the generals looked at the front seriously.
There is no king flag, which means that Gilgamesh has not arrived.
This place can't fit his Hero Palace.
The team size is wrong, it looks like a diplomatic mission.
"The old Persian tradition..." Medels said.
Everyone nodded slightly.
If Persia has great confidence, it will definitely sweep the enemy directly like Xerxes attacked Proguan.
However, once the Persians find out that they have to pay a huge price, they will inevitably choose to surrender.
But this trick works well for the Greek city-states.
Finally, the diplomatic mission stopped in a relatively wide open space a hundred meters away from the city wall.
The leading Persian nobleman wore gorgeous robes, and every part of his body from head to toe was inlaid with gold and silver, like a showcase of human-shaped luxury goods.
The Persian looked up and glanced at everyone on the city wall, expressionless, took out a roll of parchment, and read it out as if no one was there.
"On behalf of the great King of Kings, King of Nations, Lord of the World, Iron-Blooded Emperor, number one under God... the great Persian Emperor Darius, and the King of Heroes, Blood of the Demigods, Godslayer, Lord of Uruk, king of Sumer... the great hero-king Gilgamesh..."
Dozens of titles were read out slowly, Su Ye yawned, and then asked sleepily, "I just fell asleep, have you finished reading?"
The generals laughed secretly.
"... Put down your spears and swords, hand over your water and land, and submit to the Persian Empire. The Persian Empire will give you equal Persian citizenship and give you absolute protection. The first Thermopylae warrior to surrender, will Become a sanctuary noble. The first general to surrender at Thermopylae will become a legendary noble! Surrender the sanctuary, and you will become a legend. If the legend surrenders, Persia will help you to become a demigod with the power of the whole country!"
"Finally, I read out the words of the king of heroes, the blood of demigods... the great hero king Gilgamesh: Suye, I have a heart of love for talent, as long as you join Persia, I will abdicate, the new king of Uruk It will be inherited by you and help you to become a legend as soon as possible."
