I was a priest in the city-state era

Chapter 298 Even siblings have to settle accounts clearly

After listening to Ahmose's partition plan, Nafir couldn't help but sneer immediately.

"Brother Ahemoth, do you treat me like a child or do you think I'm a fool? The five cities in Middle Egypt you mentioned are Itaw, Memphis, Crocodile, Medum, and Herakli. The city of Aopolis was conquered by brother Camos during his lifetime. The city of Sun and Merimda in the Nile Delta were conquered by me. The sixteen city-states in southern Egypt belong to you, which is equal to the sixteen city-states left by my father. It’s all your inheritance.”

"Didn't you also get the 100,000 troops left by Brother Camos?"

Ahmose said with a smile.

"As long as you hand over half of the 100,000-strong army to me, I can hand over the cities of Benihassan, Hermopolis and Assiut to you. In the future, we will work together to expel the Hyksos, and the North All the cities of Egypt will be yours.”

Exchanging 50,000 troops for the ownership of three city-states——

Nafir thought about it carefully and felt that the deal was acceptable.

After all, Ahemoth was not only willing to give himself three city-states, but was also willing to give up all the city-states in the Nile Delta.

When the Hyksos are expelled in the future and all thirteen city-states in northern Egypt enter Nafir's territory, Nafir will have sixteen city-states and a population of one million, and its strength will be far greater than that of Ahmose.

"Brother Yahmose, all the city-states in Northern Egypt and Central Egypt belong to me. In the future, I will be able to rule sixteen city-states. Are you really willing to do so?"

"Why wouldn't I give in?"

Ahmose looked towards the south and said.

"Nafer, you can expand your territory towards northern Egypt. Can't I conquer the Nubians in the south? As long as I conquer the Nubian cities of Tosca, Buhen and Semna, I will do the same. Rule over sixteen city-states. And the difficulty for me to conquer the Nubians will definitely be less than the difficulty for you to defeat the Hyksos. After conquering the Nubians in the south, I can also move towards the Kurgus region further south. , the expansion of Kush and Ethiopia. The farther south you go, the weaker the enemies I want to conquer will be, because there are some barbarian tribes that don’t even have bronze weapons. But after you conquer northern Egypt, you will have the Mediterranean Sea to your north. "To the west is the desert where the barbaric Libyans live, and to the east is the civilized and advanced Near East."

Although the south is a region with backward civilization, and their skin color is different from that of the Egyptians, it is indeed easier to conquer them than to defeat the Hyksos.

Seeing that Ahmose's ambition to expand territory was in the south, Nafir said with a complicated expression and a smile.

"Brother Ahmose, this is what we have decided. From now on, when I expand to the north, you will be my southern barrier. If you expand to the south, I will also be your northern barrier."

Ahmose nodded, then looked at Nafir with the same complex expression and said.

"Nafer! I am willing to divide Egypt with you because you are my sister and your inheritance rights are higher than mine. If your kingdom is not inherited by my nephew in the future, I and my heirs will definitely take you back kingdom.”

"Don't say such silly things! My kingdom must be inherited by my children, otherwise what is the point of all I am doing now. Brother Yahmose, you and your descendants should not become puppets. If you lose I and my children will also regain the sovereignty of the Southern Egypt Kingdom that our ancestors left behind.”

After the brother and sister thus came to an agreement, Ahemoth returned to the city of Thebes with his soldiers.

Nafir also summoned the generals and asked the generals from the thirteen city-states of the southern Kingdom of Egypt and their 50,000 troops to stay.

Early the next morning.

Nafir took the generals and 35,000 troops from various city-states in the Northern Kingdom of Egypt and returned to the city of Itaweh.

Thebes, Egypt.

Pharaoh's palace.

Ahmose sat on the golden throne in the throne room and waited anxiously.

Just when Ahmose was about to lose control, Ahmose's messenger hurried in and said.

"Your Majesty Ahmose, Princess Nafir has left as agreed and left an army of 50,000 to Your Majesty."

Hearing the messenger's words, Yahmose breathed a long sigh of relief.

Now Ahemoth's army of 50,000 men were all farmers who had just laid down their hoes.

If you want to turn them into elite soldiers who meet the requirements of Ahmose, it will take at least half a year of training.

With the 50,000 troops left by Kamos, many of Jahmose's plans can be realized in advance.

Seeing Ahmose's reaction, the messenger couldn't help but say.

"Your Majesty Ahmose! Now we have 50,000 troops from His Majesty Camos, plus our 50,000 new soldiers, we already have an army of 100,000. I suggest that you can directly lead an army of 100,000 to destroy Nafir The princess's army of 35,000 people has become the only pharaoh in northern and southern Egypt. If we can capture Princess Nafir, we can force Princess Nafir to marry His Majesty. Even if we do not capture Princess Nafir, we can still claim her. Princess Phil is already dead, calling Princess Nafel a fake who pretends to be a princess.”

Hearing the messenger's proposal, Ahmose showed a heart-beating expression on his face.

After all, being able to become the only pharaoh in northern and southern Egypt, Yahmose certainly didn't want to just be the pharaoh in southern Egypt.

But thinking of Roy, Ahmose finally shook his head and said.

"If King Loy of Athens is really a demigod hero more powerful than brother Camos, it would be too risky to launch a war against Naphiel. If I lose, even if Naphiel doesn't want to kill his only brother, King of Athens Loy will also take the opportunity to kill me and let Nafil become the female pharaoh who rules northern and southern Egypt. I am lucky enough to get the pharaoh throne that was not mine. It is not unacceptable to give Nafil ten city-states. I don't want to risk myself. Risk your precious life.”

night.

Nafir's army was stationed on the banks of the Nile.

In Nafir's barracks.

Roy and Nafir enjoyed the delicious food prepared by the chefs serving the Pharaohs. Andromeda served as a maid, pouring wine for Roy and bringing various foods to Roy's mouth.

While tasting the fine wine and food, Roy couldn't help but sigh.

"Nafir, you pharaohs really know how to enjoy themselves."

Hearing Roy's praise, Nafir said with a proud smile.

"I heard that you were just a commoner! As long as you marry me, I will turn you into the most noble pharaoh in the world and let you enjoy the best wine and the most delicious food in the world."

Although Nafir surpassed Andromeda and was the most noble princess among the girls Roy knew, her vision and experience were limited after all, and she actually thought that the best things in the world were in Egypt.

Roy shook his head and said.

"Nafir, the world in your eyes is too small. Although Egypt has fertile land irrigated by the Nile River and is rich in food, Egypt is only a food-producing area in the Mediterranean world. My goal is to conquer the entire Mediterranean world, so I will not stay Egypt becomes Pharaoh."

After Roy finished speaking, a general broke into the barracks and said.

"Princess Nefer! Outside - there is a noble person outside who wants to see you. He is the high priest of the Temple of Amon."
