From Concubine to Pharaoh [Transmigration Book]

City of Assiut.

This is a battle the Egyptians have never seen before.

A large number of Lower Egyptians held bows and arrows, shields and long knives, or held hammers, chisels and sticks, and rushed towards the port city by the big river along the long stone steps in front of the head of the Assi turtle.

An illusory and huge ostrich feather faintly appeared in the sky above the big river, and it was gently flapping towards the upper reaches of the big river.

As a result, large tracts of sails on the river were swayed by the strong north wind, and the boats quickly went up the river, heading for the city upstream of Asiut.

The ambitions of the Lower Egyptians were not small. They even expected to attack different Upper Egyptian cities on the upper reaches of the river at the same time.

Standing on the head of the city of Asiut, Nanna, the god of war with a huge bull's head on her head, let out a cold snort.

When she accepted Erich's commission to secretly train the army of Upper Egypt, she didn't just consider the few towns on the border of Upper and Lower Egypt.

Along the great river, each nome has its own defense.

Unless Lower Egypt's attack power reaches its peak, they will not be able to take advantage of it. Instead, they may be defeated by the Upper Egyptians one by one because of the long front and difficulties in supply.

And what is the attack power of the Lower Egyptian army?

Nanna poked her head out from the tall buildings in Assiut City to watch.

Immediately, there was a whizzing sound of feathered arrows, and they shot at Nanna's bull's eyes staring like copper bells.

Without any fear, Nanna snatched the arrow from her hand, held it in her hand, reversed the arrow, and threw it casually.

The arrow pierced through the chest of a Lower Egyptian archer in an instant, protruded from the vest, and then pierced into the waist and abdomen of the person behind him, causing screams.

With the presence of an envoy, Nanna's combat effectiveness clearly surpassed that of any well-trained frontier soldier.

However, the hastily trained Upper Egyptian militiamen were not bad in battle.

The city of Asiut was built on a small two-story building by the river, and a row of temporary female walls were neatly built.

The Asiot militiamen kept sticking their heads out from the crenellation of the female wall, and according to Nanna's order, they shot arrows at the Lower Egyptian soldiers rushing up the long stairs.

Every time Nanna gave an order, people fell down on the long stairs.The speed of the Lower Egyptians' advancement to the city became slower and slower, and they were gradually suppressed near the pier, and they were even unable to disembark.

The tall trebuchets are hidden behind those Upper Egyptian-style buildings in Asiut, and the soldiers of Asiut standing on the top of the buildings instruct the man who controls the trebuchet to adjust the direction and change the angle.

Then, with the characteristic yelling and shouting of the Upper Egyptians, the boulder drew a considerable parabola with the movement of the trebuchet, passed over the heads of the Lower Egyptians, and threw it towards the boats in the river that were continuously docking.

This range far exceeds that of ordinary trebuchets.

Boom, the boulder hit a keel boat with incomparable precision, and the wooden boat was smashed to pieces.

The people on the boat jumped into the water to escape for their lives at the critical moment, but they couldn't escape the boulders thrown later.

In an instant, there was already a mess around Asi Turtle's head.

These trebuchets were all designed and built by the envoys of the god of craftsmen gathered in Upper Egypt—it is hard for ordinary people to imagine that a hundred angels of the god of craftsmen, together with the help of the potter's flywheel, can create a powerful weapon for the battlefield. What kind of change did it bring about.

In addition to the trebuchet, there are many other defensive tools that Nanna and Asiut can use.

Even if Nanna wanted to, she could use an electric discharge, so that the Egyptian ships that came continuously on the big river could taste the feeling of electric snakes running up and down the mast, and the hull of the ship was burnt instantly.

But the Assiuts have better weapons—

On the head of Asiut City, the locals set up a huge oven.When the sun rises and both parties are hungry and tired, Asiut's cook begins to send the pre-prepared biscuits into the oven. When the fragrant wheat biscuits come out of the oven, they spread a layer of sheep oil on them... …

This can drive people crazy.

The smell of pure wheat cakes mixed with mutton oil was really a torture for the Lower Egyptians who attacked Asiut.

Previously, the food in Lower Egypt was almost exhausted due to the huge project of 10 people building the royal tomb.However, because of the fast-growing wheat seeds bestowed by God, Upper Egypt had a lot of food in its hands.

Whether it is the hard-working civilian workers on the construction site of the royal tomb, or the frontier army who is close to running out of food, people have not smelled such an intoxicating aroma of wheat cakes for a long time.

The physical reaction directly interrupted their mental excitement. Many people put down the weapons in their hands in a daze, and walked towards the oven silently, forming a long line like they did when they were in the camp or in the army. , waiting to get the pancakes.

Asiut's cooks asked, "Have you surrendered?"

The other party drooled and replied: "Surrender!"

The cooks handed out dime and dime oatmeal, directed them to sit on the long steps outside the city, and said that someone would bring them water later.

Nanna stood dumbfounded on the top of the wall—she never expected that these people would surrender so easily.

She wasn't proud of such an easy victory. Nanna lowered her head in thought, and quickly noticed something unusual about the Lower Egyptian's attack.

They have no commander, and they fight without any rules.

People seem to rush upwards when they see the opponent's city with only the blood in their chests.

Nanna thought for a while, and decided to be on the safe side.

She didn't let the well-meaning Asiut people let these captives into the city, but locked them all outside the city.

Sure enough, at dawn the next day, another change took place.

After one night, the Lower Egyptians who had already surrendered and had already filled their stomachs took up arms again and launched an attack on the city of Asiut.

They all had red eyes, veins protruding from their temples, armed with weapons they found somewhere, regardless of whether they fit in their hands, shouting slogans and rushing towards the city of Asiut, as if they had just rescued them yesterday. The Asiut who provided them with water were their undying enemies.

The Asiuts were caught off guard, and suffered a lot from the sudden impact of the opponent, and the road leading to the city center was almost lost.

On the other hand, Nanna hastily transformed into the God of War form, held a hard bow, and shot a series of golden feather arrows, barely blocking a series of attacks, allowing the Asiuts to reorganize an effective defense.

At this time, a huge black wingspan appeared in the sky, circling back and forth, as if observing the situation in front of Asiut City——

Nanna happily called out: "Kons!"

But he saw this guy in the form of a killer suddenly crashing towards a certain place in front of Asiut City.

Immediately, blood burst out, and Kong Si's long, hard black fingers and claws cut a short black man hiding behind the Lower Egyptian from head to toe.The other party was instantly divided into two halves, blood spattered everywhere, and the death was horrific.

But once this accident happened, the Egyptians around the short black man suddenly seemed to wake up from a nightmare, and the weapons in their hands thumped and fell to the ground one after another.

They seem to have lost their hatred of the Asiuts and their drive to attack Lower Egypt.

Everyone's eyes are blank, you look at me, I look at you, seem to ask each other, where are we, why is this happening?

Then they all seemed to smell the smell of fresh wheat cakes coming from the oven, and they spontaneously formed a long line in front of the unlit oven again——

The Asiuts were all stunned.

What's the situation, do you want to feed you again, let you have a good sleep, and then let you attack us again tomorrow morning?

Nanna jumped down from the city of Asiut, came to Kong Si, and stood side by side with Kong Si in front of the corpse in a terrible state of death.

"You're still—"

Nanna said with a cold face.

Meng Tu, the God of War she followed, and Kong Si, the Slayer, followed by Kong Si, could be said to be the two faces of the God of War.

The war represented by Mengtu is used to stop killing, and the ultimate goal is peace.

But Kongsi is not the case. Kongsi is considered an evil god, and he always takes pleasure in killing and creating fear.

Therefore, although Kongsi could simply kill the opponent, he insisted on making the scene so terrifying.

"She said..."

Kong Si stared at Nanna closely with his blood-red eyes, and spoke hoarsely.

"To be feared more than to be loved..."

As soon as Nanna heard it, she knew that Kong Si was relaying Erich's words.But as a follower of Meng Tu, she could not agree with this.

But at this moment, Nanna turned her head and looked at the Lower Egyptians who were gradually waking up from the frenzy. Seeing them line up in a long line to beg for wheat bread, she really felt a shock in her heart——

Yes, do the Asiuts have to provide supplies while letting these Lower Egyptians attack themselves?

To be loved by others... This may really be a thankless task in a war!

Before Kong Si finished speaking, he raised a black paw that was dripping blood to the ground, pointed at the corpse beside him, and said in a hoarse voice, "The one who is favored by God..."

"Is this the favored person of God Ra?"

Nanna's eyes widened suddenly.

So this guy is the culprit who made the Lower Egyptians blindly launch crazy attacks again and again?

That night, Nanna made preparations at the appointed time.

She was sitting in a hut in Asiut City, with a small lamp like a bean lit beside her.

"Miss, I can see you again."

As soon as this idea came up, Nanna suddenly felt a slight movement of the air in her ears. Before she stood up loudly and asked who it was, there seemed to be a gentle hand on her shoulder.

Nanna's eyes blurred, and the scene in front of her eyes immediately shifted from the dark room to the bright temple of the Karnak Temple in Thebes.

Burning pine torches are inserted in the stone rings of the surrounding walls.

Nanna found herself sitting at a large round table.Looking around, it was only her for the time being.

There is also a door frame with strange patterns painted on the surface in front of the round table.Looking into the door frame, I saw nothingness in the door frame, and I couldn't see anything on the opposite side of the door frame.

Nanna was curious and was about to continue to look around, but found figures around her appearing one after another.

First, Kong Si, who showed his face as a pale boy, followed by the high priest Senmut, the leader of the Utao people, Satiri, the newly promoted priest of the god of craftsmen, Karam, and the leader of the 13-member council of Thebes, Filin.

Then came two young men whom Nanna had never met.One was dressed in the clothes of an ordinary militiaman, and the other looked like a cavalry soldier in the frontier army.

Beside them, a handsome young man's face quickly appeared.

Soran—Nanna was quite surprised, she didn't expect to see the young lady's brother on this occasion.

Finally, a guy with an elegant figure and a mask, but with two long pointed ears on his head, appeared beside Nanna very lazily.

Immediately, Alicia came out from the depths of the temple and nodded to everyone.

"Thank you for attending the wartime meeting in Egypt."
