Chapter 285 Disaster is coming, no longer escape
With the glorious record of killing the Roman emperor Caracalla, the prestige and invincibility of the Han army spread throughout Egypt in an instant.

Those Roman soldiers who fled back to Alexandria spread the news of the coming of the invincible Orientals to everyone.

The whole of Alexander suddenly panicked.

The only remaining Roman legion was also unable to organize these routs, nor could it stabilize the hearts of the people.

As time approached, when Eastern cavalry scouts appeared in the south, the whole of Alexandria suddenly fell into chaos.

All the Roman nobles and soldiers were in no mood to defend the entire great city.

They scrambled into the port one by one.

The ships in the port of Alexandria will be their best choice to escape Egypt.

As long as they got on the boat, they could escape.

In the city of Alexandria, it became completely disorganized.

In just one day, all the Romans in Alexandria fled.

Under the secret order of Alexios, the Christians in the city took up arms and seized control of the city.

When Liu Bie led his army to arrive, the city of Alexandria had already become a Christian world.

"Your Majesty, the city of Alexandria is yours from now on."

Alexios said proudly.

"Jiang Wei, lead the troops to take over the city defense first, and then issue a ban. The city will be strictly prohibited. No one is allowed to move around for three days!" Liu Bian said loudly.

Alexandria is the largest city in Egypt.

The construction can be said to be very good.

According to the size of a big man, it can be worth the city of a big county.

Especially his port is full of prosperity.

Although no ships can be seen, clues of everything on the dock can still be seen.

After Jiang Wei led his army into the city, he quickly took over the city defense.

The residents of the entire city of Alexandria can be said to come from complex sources.

However, most people do not like Roman rule.

The taxation of the Romans was very heavy, especially for the people of Egypt.

The Christians in the city, because of their relationship with Alexios, consciously became the helpers of the Han army.

They led the Han army to confiscate the houses, shops, manors and warehouses left by the Romans in the city.

Many Roman merchants who did not escape were also looted by Christians.

The rulers of the past have been reduced to the inferiors of the present.

"Jiang Wei, according to my order, our transportation capacity is limited, so we don't need to take away the excess gold and silver treasures, except for some symbolic objects, all others are books!" Liu Bian said.

The Romans built a huge library in Alexandria.

Although this library is not as large as the group of shepherd dogs in later generations boasted, there are still quite a lot of books in it.

In particular, some books on architecture and mathematics are rare treasures.

Therefore, Liu Bian ordered that all the books in the city be selected and packaged to be transported back to the Central Plains.

And those things that are left after being selected are Roman history, philosophy, religion and culture.

The big man no longer needed these, and Liu Bian would not keep them as a means of punishing the Romans.

On the square outside the Library of Alexandria.

There are piles of parchment and papyrus piled up in one big ball.

"Your Majesty, these are useless books!" Jiang Wei said.

"That's right, Your Majesty, these are proofs that the Romans believed in false gods!" Alexios also said.

When screening these books, the Christians in Alexandria made great efforts.

Almost all religious and cultural books in Rome were labeled as cults, and Christians wanted to burn them down.

"Haha, that's good, I decided to set fire to them!"

When Liu Bian gave an order, the surrounding Christian residents burst into cheers.

They all felt that these three sages from the east were allies sent by God.

Looking at them, Liu Bian couldn't help feeling contemptuous.

"Hmph, you idiots! I am burning books and burying scholars. What I burned was the ruling culture of the Romans, and also the source of your inheritance and absorption. You just hold on to those stupid canons and keep acting like idiots." Donkey!"

After dealing with these books, Liu Bian basically transported all the useful books away.

Since it is necessary to burn books and bury Confucianism, it is the next step.

Later, under the order of Liu Bian, the Han army, led by the Christians, began to search for various scholars and craftsmen in the city.

No matter what kind of scholars they are, as long as they are not Roman theologians, they will all be forced into the prison cells of the Han army together with their families.

Waiting for them to end, they were uniformly transported back to the Red Sea port, then boarded the Han army ships, and finally transported back to the Central Plains.

As a wealthy place of the Roman Empire, Egypt has many scholars and craftsmen.

Together with their family members, almost 3000 people were collected.

All these people were escorted out with terrified faces.

As for the other scholars who remained in Alexandria, only the Roman sacrificial theologians remained.

These people are all believers of the Roman gods.

As religious officials of the Roman Empire, they have never lacked persecution of Christians.

Now that Christians are hugging the thighs of the Han army, it is naturally the turn of Christians to persecute them.

"Fire! Only the souls of these Romans can be purified!"

At the request of the head of Alexios, Liu Bian allowed Alexandria to set up a stake for the execution of religious personnel in Rome.

"Okay, this method is good. To deal with the Romans, this is the way to do it. I absolutely support you!"

Liu Bian agreed to Alexios with a smile.

Anyway, these Roman theological officials were basically useless.

If they could be brutally executed at the stake, then the relationship between Christians and Romans would be even greater.

Subsequently.

In the city of Alexandria, various burning pillars can be seen everywhere.

In the beginning, the people who were burned at the stake were all Roman religious theologians.

Then, when the Roman theologians were burned out, it was the turn of some notorious Roman merchants.

Although these businessmen have become bankrupts, they still cannot escape death.

When these Roman merchants were killed again, it was the turn of the Jews again.

Although they have the same origin as Christians, heresy is even more hateful.

One by one Jewish businessmen were also tied to the stake.

"In the city of Alexandria, there is the smell of bacon every day. These barbarians like to eat barbecue so much?"

At the beginning, Jiang Wei kept complaining.

However, when he saw some burnings with his own eyes, he immediately felt that the barbecue was not delicious.

"Your Majesty, these Christians are not good birds, we must guard against them!"
