To be king [Greek mythology]

Tika requires a lot of manpower, the reinforcements arrive late, and the mobility is not strong, which is quite unfavorable to the battle situation.

Unless the island of Salamis can be taken down in one breath after taking Megara.

After the two sides encircle Athens, they can watch Athens slowly recuperate and let Athens go in a hurry.

But the problem is, it's really hard to do that.

Including the main force of Sparta that is about to arrive and the slaves who can act as scouts to scout first, the combined strength is only [-], and [-] of the [-] miles are slave scouts.

The follow-up reinforcements are still uncertain how fast they will come, but Athens only needs to send troops directly to cross the plain leading to Megara.

Surps frowned and looked at the map for a long while, then sighed. In the current situation, he can only wait for the king of Corinth to learn more about it before making the original plan in more detail.

Thinking of this, he carefully rolled up the map and put it away.

He looked up at the already faintly visible Acropolis of Corinth, called a warrior, and gave the warrior what Aphrodite had given him before, asking him to go and inform the Acropolis to open the gates early.

The march of an army is always much slower than the speed of a person running without scruples.

The warrior came back after reporting the letter, and brought a tied up boy with an angry face.

Thurps looked at the boy, feeling a little familiar.

"Surpus!" The boy's eyes lit up when he saw Surpus on the horse.

Thurps thought for a while before realizing, "You are... a boy from the Payris family."

"It's me!" The boy's eyes were shining, and he looked at Thurps with admiration.

Since he was a child, he liked to follow Thurpus in circles. This young hero who is famous all over Crete is a legend in the hearts of the new generation of Crete.

Payris knew that his son admired Thurpus, and often called Thurpus to his house to amuse his son by taking advantage of his position.

"Why did you come to Corinth?" Thurps signaled the warrior to let go of the young man, paused slightly, and squinted his eyes, "What's wrong with Crete?"

Hearing the words, the young man pursed his lips, and half of his excitement disappeared immediately, "Radamandis has become the king of Crete, father..."

"What happened to Payris?" Thurps' voice sank suddenly.

"No, but Radamandis has been making things difficult for him." The boy said and glanced at Thurps cautiously, "Radamandis asked me to come to say that he should be blamed for taking Athens. share."

"I've become the king of Crete, but I haven't made any achievements yet, so I have gained a lot of courage." Thurpus snorted coldly when he heard this, "Napaerys threatened me."

"Can you help father?" Seeing Thurps' unmoved look, the boy suddenly became anxious.

Thurps leaned over and lifted the young man to sit in front of his horse, and continued to move towards Corinth with the horse's belly.

He didn't answer the boy's words, but asked, "Payris asked you to come?"

"Yes, the news that you are the king of Sparta and took down Argos has spread everywhere." The boy said, still full of worry, "Surpus, please help father."

"Payris doesn't need to help, you just have to be obedient, and you can go back in a few days." Surpus patted the restless boy, squinted his eyes and looked at the wide open gate of the Acropolis of Corinth with a half-smile. city ​​gate.

The boy trusted Thurps very much, but when it came to his father, he still felt a little apprehensive, "But..."

"Minos is going back to Crete." Surpus interrupted the boy and said.

The boy's eyes widened.

"Did Rhadamandis tell you that Minos is dead?"

"Yes……"

"Minos is not dead, he lived a good life in Netherland, and was taken in as a student by the Goddess of Justice." Thurpus had a cool look in his eyes.

There are not many things Thurpus hates, but what he hates the most is that others covet his things and hurt those he values.

As far as he was concerned, Attica was his from the beginning to the end.

Payris can almost be called his second father-like existence.

Radamandis himself is in danger, and he still wants to take advantage of Pailis' position in his heart and want to get a share of Attica's resources and wealth, which is a bit too big.

"Goddess of Justice?" The boy was very curious.

Surpus looked up at Aphrodite who was looking at him on the wall, nodded slightly, and led the Spartan warriors into the Acropolis of Corinth.

Aphrodite still covered up her face. Although she still couldn't hide her aura, it still wouldn't cause a sensation as soon as she appeared.

"Well, Themis, the goddess of justice, is a pretty good goddess." Seppus got off his horse and picked up the young man by the way. Thinking of the way Minos and Themis got along, his face couldn't help showing a smile. There was a little smile.

Themis literally raised Minos as a son.

It can be regarded as making up for the defect that Minos has never enjoyed maternal love.

"Did you change your mind after going out to fight?" Aphrodite came over, looked at Thurps' expression, glanced at the boy who was specially taken care of by Thurps, and clicked, "But your The face is not suitable for raising a boy, I like this child quite a lot, why don't you give it to me."

"No." Thurps didn't change his face, and raised his hand to rub the boy's head. "I think he's fine like this."

The Goddess of Love and Beauty raised her chin, and turned her eyes between Thurps and the boy, "Your lover is really pitiful."

Obviously, I have not seen each other for so many years, and I have survived only by communication.

Aphrodite felt a little pity.

Surpus didn't say much, just glanced at Aphrodite, familiar with these gods, and had seen several creation gods, Surpus faced Aphrodite and Ares At that time, the attitude became quite peaceful and natural.

He looked at Aphrodite, didn't explain his relationship with the boy, and didn't express how pitiful his lover was, but said from the bottom of his heart: "Obviously your husband is more pitiful."

Just thinking about Hephaestus, who has always had a bright green light above his head, feels particularly cruel.

You must know that even Hera has escaped from the bitter sea of ​​marriage and lived happily. Hephaestus is still hard at work in his temple, and the green hat has never been taken off, which is a little distressing.

Well worth lighting a large circle of candles.

Aphrodite: ...

What he said was so reasonable that I was speechless.

The author has something to say: PS1: Megara was one of the four regions of Attica before Athens ruled Attica. It collided with the four tribes I set up before and changed it to a private setting!

PS2: Do you still remember Pailis ==, the warrior leader of Crete.

PS3: This chapter is still full of nonsense about strategy and the like, so don't take it too seriously!

Chapter 76

Hercules, who disappeared to nowhere after Thurpus was taken to Hades by Thanadus, suddenly popped out.

Surpus looked at Hercules who ran out of the city and was slightly taken aback, "Where did you come from?"

"I just came here first." Hercules rolled his eyes, and handed a rather rough map to Thurps, "By the way, I went to see the situation near the Isthmus of Corinth."

Surpus looked at Hercules in surprise, and was extremely surprised that Hercules had such a consciousness.

Hercules IQ is finally online.

really not easy.

Thurps thought.

"What kind of eyes do you have!" Hercules was slightly displeased, "If you don't want it, just return it to me."

"I didn't say no." Thurps withdrew his hand and stuffed Hercules' contribution into the animal skin bag.

Hercules glanced at the young man beside Surpus.

Thurps glanced at him, "This is my brother."

"Miledus?" Hercules was taken aback, "It's not like you."

"It's not Miledus." Thurps didn't explain much. In fact, he didn't want to discuss Crete's affairs.

Since Radamandis has directly seen through his purpose, he must have sent more than one person.

The others were still hiding in the dark, acting according to Thurps' reaction.

Even in Crete, there are only a handful of people who know that he is from Attica, and Radamandis is one of them, so he came to threaten him so blatantly.

If Thurps disagrees with Radamandes, it is estimated that the new king of Crete will go to Athens to inform him.

Thurps didn't care too much about that, though.

Because he had clearly said that Minos was going back to Crete, after receiving the news, Radamandis must not be in the mood to intervene in the affairs of Sparta and Athens.

He didn't even think about it, two—no, three gods fighting each other, what good could he get from being a demigod.

"Are you Hercules?" The boy looked at Hercules with sparkling eyes.

Hercules glanced at him and snorted as he agreed.

"I know you! You are amazing!" The boy let go of Thurpus's clothes, and followed Hercules as a tail.

Thurps frowned slightly looking at the boy's appearance, not understanding how Payris taught the boy to be like this.

But at this time, he had no choice but to go to Crete to have a long talk with Paieris on this issue, so he had to follow Aphrodite, let the warriors who had traveled a long distance rest for a while, and wait for the main city of Corinth. The news came.

With Aphrodite picking up in Corinth, Thurps did not stay long in the Acropolis of Corinth.

The warriors of Sparta were not even
