Two thousand and sixty-eight chapters Alexander the war base

"I am Iskandar! Alexander III, the king of Macedonia, the conquerors of Persia, the pharaoh of Egypt, the son of the sun god Amon, the conquerors from the West to the East, commanded millions of people who wanted to conquer the end of the world."

The first person to come out was the famous Alexander the Great. This king, who had great talent and strategy, established a great empire across Europe, Asia and Africa, and was famous for his bravery and wisdom, eventually died young due to an emergency. There are many different opinions about his death, but the place where he was buried was Egypt, a place where he was conquered by him, but he was sincerely loved and supported him.

His soul also returned to this, but because of the sleep of the gods, he had to accumulate in the abyss of death. However, this did not erode his ambition and ambition. Therefore, when Alexia opened the door to the dark world again and welcomed them the dead with the water of the Nile River, he, the king who had been sleeping for thousands of years, was not willing to be outdone. He almost rushed into the sunny world that had been conquered by him with a stance of striking the lead.

At this time, he was the first to make a call, and the reason he called was very reasonable.

"The deceased who are fortunate to return to this world with me. The purpose of my stressful return to the world after a thousand years is to fulfill my unfinished ambitions and fulfill my conquest that died halfway through the journey! This is the mission God has given me, and God's mercy for my unfinished life. The deceased, I sincerely invite you to join me. To conquer the whole world with me, and as a reward, I'm very stressful and willing to share the whole world with you. Water and soil, blood and glory, everything! As long as you are willing to be loyal... So, what is your answer?"

As the King of Resurrection in this world, what makes Alexander special is that he resurrected on a horse.

A tall black horse, majestic as if it were the legendary horse. This is Alexander's love horse, Busilas. A famous horse that was tamed by Alexander when he was old and accompanied him to fight north and north until the Battle of Sidapis River.

General Alexander regarded him as his close friend. After he died in battle, he made a grand funeral for him and even built a city called Busilla to commemorate him. In terms of treatment, the treatment of this horse was already heroic. It is precisely because of such a special treatment that the name Busillas was sung by countless classics and even biography, so that it still broke away from the barriers of a horse itself, possessed mythical characteristics, and became a symbol of Alexander the Great, the king who wanted to conquer the world.

Alexander, one of the most famous kings in human history. How could his resurrection be easy? Just as many resurrected dead in Egyptian mythology would possess imaginary magic, great power, and even promoted to gods. As a former pharaoh in Egypt, Alexander may not have been promoted to gods, but he will never be simply a brave mortal.

Busilas is just a symbol of authority he has after his resurrection, and there are many such symbols, such as those warriors who have accompanied him to fight in battles, fighting in blood, and fell on the journey with the same dream.

As they placed their dreams on this king during their lifetime, they carried them with them, even if they died, they were willing to accompany this king and sank in the silt of the dark world. And now that they are reborn in the world, they are naturally continuing to guard their king just like they did during their lifetime.

The vigorous war horses, traditional Greek armor, high spears and daggers, accompanied by their mighty shouts, were obviously the first to correspond to the call of this king.

There are not many people, after all, there are tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of people here. At best, they are only tens of thousands of people, and they can only be regarded as dropping a drop in the bucket. However, they have a prestigious reputation, with such a large number of people, and organized people are the first to respond. Many of the dead who were still swaying and uncertain whether they should obey, subconsciously moved towards Alexander.

With the first one, there will be a second one soon. In a short period of time, millions of people gathered around Alexander, and this number is still increasing.

After all, Alexander the Great's reputation is really loud. Even if these dead are not figures of the same era, some of them are even separated from Alexander for thousands of years. However, living on this land, they can be said to have grown up listening to Alexander's stories since childhood.

This is a person who cannot even kill his great achievements by fanatical religion, but it is natural. It is natural that ordinary people were born to easily be impressed by the spirit of this king.

Soon, nearly half of the undead were gathered around Alexander. Seeing that he chose to follow him on such a huge scale, even a person like Alexander was inevitably full of ambition.

You should know that in his era, although he was the lord and conqueror of the world who dominated the great empires across Europe, Asia and Africa, in fact, his soldiers had never reached the scale of 100,000.

Whether it was the first soldiers from Macedonia and Greece, or the servants summoned from Persia, Egypt and even India, he gathered tens of thousands of people to fight with the enemy.

This is the limitation of the productivity and system of the times. In the Greek-style country of Macedonia, soldiers worked for their rulers as employed people. The people's military service was basically voluntary, rather than state-style solicitation, which led to the Greek countries being stuck at the threshold of the source of the army.

It was not easy for a city-state in ancient Greece to cultivate hundreds of qualified soldiers. Even the richest Athens and the most powerful Sparta, at most, had more than 10,000 soldiers from their own city-states.

This is still a theoretical existence, because from the perspective of the city-state economy alone, their economy is difficult to support the expenses of tens of thousands of troops. This is the same even if all men are qualified soldiers.

Because if the Spartans had to pay for meals, the Spartan economy was entirely based on the exploitation of their slave Black Rous. Once the pressure of war was too high, it was very likely that the Black Rous uprising was caused.

In history, Sparta has been consuming the strength of its city-state in suppression and uprising. It is natural that they were eventually defeated and annexed.

So if you say they are strong, maybe. But if you say they are the most powerful army in the world, it is not necessarily true.

Macedonia under Alexander was the most powerful country in Greece, and there was no doubt that this could be seen from the fact that he conquered Sparta, a symbol of force in the Greek world. Even if he conquered Greece and ruled Egypt and Persia, Alexander's military source was not sufficient to be able to sacrifice tens of thousands of people at will without even blinking.

In his time, under the territory he ruled, the population, especially the adult brave men, was a resource that was too scarce. Productivity, medical care, and these limits the development of his strength. If his empire could be passed on and had enough birth, perhaps a monarch with hundreds of thousands or even millions of people could appear in his descendants, but for him, a hundred thousand army was almost the limit he could control.

To a certain extent, Alexander was also an arrogant man. He dared to have the ambition to conquer the world just by holding tens of thousands of people. From today's perspective, this is really overestimating his own abilities, because in his contemporaries, in the East where he had not yet entered, there was already a country where mutual conquests could be fought and tens of thousands of people could be killed or injured in a war.

However, to him, arrogance is not a derogatory thing. Because he is such a person, born to have the most passionate dreams, like a flame, and only thinking about burning.

Once upon a time, he dared to conquer the whole world with a hundred thousand people in his hand, and indeed, he almost stepped on half of the world's civilization at his feet. Now, there are tens of millions of people around him. It is a number that all the populations in that era may not be comparable to those added together. This strong foundation made the conquering king's mouth open, and as if drinking mellow wine, it came out of the generous laughter that shook his eardrums like a bull.

"This is really a gift from God to me. In the future after I have been sleeping for thousands of years, there will be such a huge crowd of scholars coming to obey my Iskandar's orders. This is the gods suggesting to me that the world will be trampled under my feet."

"I can't imagine that any country in this world can be my opponent with such a large scale. My soldiers, each of them can gather into a lake; each of them can scoop up a majestic mountain; each of them throw a horse whip, and the Nile River can cut off the flow. This battle of conquest was destined to win from the beginning. And such an easy victory really made me feel regretful. I also want to fight and enjoy the feeling of bathing in blood to win glory. But now it seems that our enemies will lose all their courage just by seeing us, and offer them to the city like cowards and pray for our forgiveness!"

As for an ancient king, it was normal for him to say such words. After all, under the standard of cold weapons war where the number of people is the cornerstone of victory, tens of thousands of soldiers who do not need to eat or drink, and who can fight without asking for a piece of food and salary, are really enough to trample the entire world under his feet.

But unfortunately, this is not his era. Looking at today's world from a perspective limited to his own era is destined to be a joke.

Nowadays, there are many people who have been born in modern times and are unfortunate because of disasters. Although they admire Alexander, the ancient king, but they do not blindly follow him to the point where they believe whatever he says.

There may be an idiot among modern people who have clearly attended school and received modern education, but they naively thought that ancient people were omnipotent, and they could just come up with an idiot who was a human or a god. However, most modern people can still rationally judge the gap between modern and ancient times and objectively give their own analysis.

Just like now, some modern deceased have already started admonishing Alexander.

"His Majesty Alexander, the world today may be different from the world you live in. After all, more than two thousand years have passed, and human production capacity and reproduction ability are no longer comparable to your era. Perhaps in your era, a population of millions is an unthinkable number, but in our era today, a population of millions is an ordinary one. Even if there are several cities with a population of over 100 millions, there are still several. So, your current military strength..."

The implication is that your current military strength is not enough, so you'd better take it easy.

It reminds Alexander that although he was kind-hearted, he was actually thinking more about himself. After all, he is now affiliated to the surroundings of Alexander's forces, and he doesn't want this famous monarch to be so stupid that he blocked his own group of men as cannon fodder at the forefront of the war.

This is not a good thing. After all, although he had not personally participated in modern warfare, he also knew that modern warfare was not comparable to before. Using ancient people to fight against modern military means is not conquest, but delivery of food.

When Alexander heard the man's words, he immediately looked at him with a light in his eyes. Unlike the ancient Greeks and Egyptians, he was not the Persians or Indians he knew. That look looked more like the more oriental people he had heard of.

This kind of Eastern Host is rare among the dead, but what Alexander cares more about is the content of his previous words.

Alexander was born in Macedonia, and his teacher was the famous scholar Aristotle. Personally, he was also the kind of king who respected knowledge and culture very much. So when he heard the words of the Oriental people, he immediately asked him with great interest.

"Listen to your words, it seems to be very organized. Are you a scholar?"

"I?" pointed to himself, and the deceased in the East shook his head and said, "I am just a market opener. It turns out that I have been a teacher for a while, but the world is not good, and if something happens, I will stop doing it. I simply went abroad to settle here, but I didn't expect to encounter such a broken thing... In the end, things in the world are impermanent, and people are not as good as God's calculations."

The old Oriental Dead showed an expression of emotion in the world. Looking at his expression, Alexander believed even more firmly that he was a scholar.

This is not surprising. After all, even in his era, people who had time or ideas to express their feelings about the world had basically some knowledge. Not to mention that he could say such philosophical words.

"I haven't asked you about your surname yet."

"My surname is Yu, and those who know me usually call me Mr. Yu. The students in my past call me Teacher Yu. If you like me, just call me Lao Yu."
