The host is a slime [Quick Transmigration]

Chapter 177 Egyptian Priests Day 24

In the beginning, Lower Egypt would be defeated by Upper Egypt. In addition to being slightly inferior in military power, another important reason is that Lower Egypt is located in the lower reaches of the Nile River.

We all know the difficulty of sailing against the current, so at the same time, the upper Egyptian army going down the river can use the water of the Nile to shorten the time by nearly half to reach the battlefield.

How could Ohm not notice this?

Probably because of the civilization that developed along the Nile River, Egypt's navy is considered relatively strong, but a ship has no more than [-] soldiers at most, and this does not exclude the captain and sailors. Compared with the Aegean Sea For a country surrounded by the sea, there is still a lot of room for improvement in their ability to fight at sea.

I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but Ohm happened to be in the second world, and lived with Tu Zongye in Qingshui Town by the sea for many years. Ohm also relied on sea boat fishing to develop their first pot of gold—a seafood cooker. Jinglou; Later, after Tu Zongye resigned from office and returned to seclusion, after they visited the scenic spots on land, their eyes naturally turned to the sea.

Although the two of them were not too young at that time, their adventurous spirit was no less than that of young people.

They are not the kind of landowners who open their mouths while stretching out their clothes and hands. I believe that no one knows the structure of sea-going ships better than them except for the shipbuilder and the captain.

As long as it is the knowledge that Ohm has learned by himself, he will not forget it even in another world. Naturally, after Ohm learned of the shortcomings of Lower Egypt in terms of transportation, he invested manpower, financial resources and time on it early— ——In addition to the "saddle" that makes the cavalry stand out, the most important thing is the warship.

But even with a warship in hand, Ohm and Elim have never taken the initiative to attack—on the surface, Lower Egypt still belongs to the whole of Egypt, not to mention that if they take the initiative to attack, it will cause criticism from all countries. As soon as Egypt started a fight, it would cause other countries to rush into Egypt to fish in troubled waters under the pretext of aid.

And this time, Ihom's request for help and the behavior of the new pharaoh and Babylon just gave Lower Egypt a fair and honest opportunity to send troops.

※※※

No matter what era it is in, a battle cannot be fought by talking about it, especially in today's time when the transportation is inconvenient, and the army needs to prepare a lot for the expedition.

Even if Haritus' father and king became angry because of Ariel, he recruited a certain number of soldiers from various Nome regions and gathered them at a fixed assembly point before leading the expedition.

This is to save people and worry about the delay, and the steps are as streamlined as possible-if it is a complete process, after the commander arrives, he must first hold a sacrifice to the gods, and pray for the gods to help in the upcoming battle.

Finally, the trumpet will be blown to signal the assembly and prepare for the expedition.

Therefore, when Upper Egypt had just finished offering sacrifices, Haritus had not yet sat firmly in his chariot, when he heard the urgent report that the army from Lower Egypt had arrived in Baicheng!The officials behind him with palm fans were even more frightened - how could it be so fast!

You know, in order to trap Lower Egypt, they set up ambushes on all the roads of Upper and Lower Egypt, but now, there is no news from the ambush over there, so why did they come here?

Could it be that they can still fly?

After they knew that Ohm and Elim were sailing upstream from the Nile River in a warship, they were even more confused—the difficulty of sailing against the current was clear to them, especially when the Nile River was about to flood. During this period of time, the Nile River was even more turbulent and undercurrent. Even the crocodile, the overlord of the water, would not choose to go to the depths of the river. How did Lower Egypt arrive safely and at such a fast speed!

"Could it be...Could it be that His Royal Highness Elim is really the Chosen One!?" Some people on Haritus' side began to whisper, "Do you still remember that when the Babylonian army entered the territory of Egypt, There was an oracle in Lower Egypt, and then Princess Elim became Prince Elim!"

"Why don't you remember!" When the news reached Upper Egypt, it caused quite a stir, but at that time they couldn't do anything, they could only wait and see what happened—and at that time they were still skeptical, I feel that this rumor is not credible. After all, they have been watching Princess Elim for more than ten years, and Princess Elim is even married as a wife.

Unless...His Royal Highness Elim was originally...

Thinking about it this way, they suddenly respected Queen Natadia and His Royal Highness Elim. What a skill it was to be able to hide their identities for so many years and still be under the pharaoh's nose!

They thought a little more in their hearts, and at the same time, the steelyard in their hearts began to swing left and right—if Princess Elim really became Prince Elim, then who is more suitable to be the king of Egypt, he or His Majesty Haritus?

Haritus didn't need to listen carefully to know what these nobles were thinking. Compared with the part of the ministers who had followed Ihom and turned to Elim, those who stayed in Upper Egypt seemed to be on the same side as him. front, but their essence is nothing more than grass.If he is unable to defeat the Egyptian army this time, then his position as pharaoh will be over!

Although he never wanted to talk about his ambitions like Harusa did, Haritus, who has no competitors, has always regarded Egypt as his possession because his father only has his own son.

So after hearing the news that Elim had changed from a princess to a prince, my first thought was definitely not a miracle from the gods, but I suddenly understood why the father and the king have not been very close to Elim—even in Ellie’s case. Before his son appeared, he was extremely fond of Queen Natadia.

Elim didn't care how much turmoil he caused by announcing his true gender to the world, relying on the warship that sailed effortlessly even against the current, they blocked the upper Egyptian army before they left the White City. left Baicheng.

In front of the White City, Elim, who appeared in front of everyone as a heroic man, had a stern expression on his face. He hardly said a word, but as the command flag waved down in his hand, the well-trained Lower Egyptian army fought against the extreme. In time, the battle order was adjusted to the archers in front, the infantry in the rear, and the chariots and cavalry charging forward.

This is not the first time the cavalry of Lower Egypt has appeared. As early as when they fought against Biya, the cavalry showed unparalleled bravery. The horrors faced by the Biya people.

In addition to cavalry, the infantry of Lower Egypt also opened the eyes of the people of Upper Egypt-according to different equipment, it is divided into two types: heavy infantry and light infantry.

Heavy infantry wear armor and hold shields, mostly use spears, but also use offensive weapons such as hammer spears, battle axes or long-handled axes, and also carry spare weapons such as swords, waist knives, hockey sticks or hand axes; light infantry Without armor and shields, archers are light infantry.

Because Lower Egypt is much more inclusive than Upper Egypt, in addition to the Egyptians in the infantry, there are also some Libyans-yes, they have surrendered to Lower Egypt, Libyans, and mercenaries from Asia.

Perhaps because they have experienced the living conditions of Lower Egypt, to some extent they are more brave than the native Egyptians.

All of this is not the scariest thing, those rampant large animals and the four-wheeled chariots they drag are the real killers.

Yes, Ohm will not let go of his affinity for animals after assimilating with the world. Compared with complex-minded humans, he who has been a caracal has more trust in these beasts.

The Egyptians' fear of lions, hippos, etc. has long been rooted in their bone marrow. Even the soldiers of Lower Egypt dare not approach this beast team, let alone the soldiers of Upper Egypt.

And as for those Babylonian soldiers...they'd just be worse off than the soldiers of Upper Egypt.

Therefore, in the menacing Lower Egypt, advancing in an overwhelming manner, under their attack like tigers and wolves, the battle order of the enemy soldiers quickly fell apart and fell apart, with overturned carriages, horses and dead soldiers everywhere. The shouts of the generals and the screams of the wounded can be heard everywhere.

Haritus and the Prince of Babylon saw that the situation was not going well and urgently called for the remaining soldiers to hide in the White City, trying to resist with a solid city wall, but who would have thought that Elim and his army not only had special ladders for climbing the city walls, but also There are two kinds of siege equipment, the tortoise shell array and the battering hammer, which Ohm learned from the lady's plug-in and made.

The so-called tortoise shell array is that several rows of siege soldiers hold shields in their hands and tower above their heads to form a shed, which is shaped like a tortoise shell, so as to cover the siege; city ​​walls.

It is also thanks to Ariel who was induced by Ohm to say a lot before returning to the modern society, so that Ohm can justifiably show it.

It is worth mentioning that when Ohm and Elim broke open the gate of the White City with a city-breaking device, what they faced were not the resisting Upper Egyptian soldiers, but high-ranking officials and nobles who were abnormally enthusiastic-they faced For a while, he became the leading party, expressing his attitude of surrender for this invincible army.

Under their "rebellion", the whole of Upper Egypt finally almost gave up resistance, and Ohm and Elim occupied the royal palace of Upper Egypt without bloodshed.

But Ohm and Elim did not stop fighting, because Haritus, Harusa, and Asidani also fled with Babylon's retreating army.

Ohm and Elim didn't intend to kill Haratus and the others, but such an opportunity to attack Babylon in one go was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and they would not let it go.

"In "The Age of Elim I and Ohm I", vividly and meticulously described the heroic image of Elim I in this battle: "Your Majesty drives a gold and silver chariot, equipped with his own combat weapons, as usual Horus the victor, like the master of power, like Monte of Thebes, set off, and his father Amon strengthened his hands' [Note 1]." On the podium, the woman with gold-rimmed spectacles The professor read in cadence, "When the Egyptian army reached the border of Babylon, after three fierce battles, the Babylonian army had to withdraw to the east bank of the river. Looking at the surging river, they breathed a long sigh of relief, because the king of Babylon Under the command of the army, they have controlled all the nearby ships, and the Egyptian army cannot cross the river anyway...

"Unexpectedly, at this moment, King Ohm I, the partner of King Elim I, summoned many crocodiles and piranhas in the river, and they rushed towards the Babylonian ships along the river under the order of His Royal Highness Ohm. After arriving, he hurriedly escaped...

"...During his reign, he not only invaded Syria and Palestine on a large scale, but also continued to conquer Nubia, expanding the southern boundary of the Egyptian Empire to the fourth waterfall of the Nile [Note 2]. Although both Elim I and Ohm I were male , but they have been very loving all their lives, and no one has intervened in the middle. During the reign of their double pharaohs, Egypt became an unprecedented super military hegemony. Not only the conquered countries in West Asia must pay a large amount of tribute to Egypt every year, Even Babylon, Assyria, and Hittite, the powerful countries in the Near East at that time, had to present gifts to Egypt because they were awed by the power of the two pharaohs. , reaching its maximum size."

After stopping the slideshow, the young female professor said, "So, do you have any questions?"

"Professor Ariel, I would like to ask, do the mysterious powers of ancient Egypt really exist? Elim I is said to have been a priest of the temple, and his partner can command beasts. No matter how you look at it, this is against science Is it possible that it is exaggerated by artistic processing?" A young male student with freckles raised his hands, but rather than getting answers to the questions, he wanted to ask a few more questions to get the answer. Charming female professor's attention.

Before Ariel could speak, a female student with fiery red hair couldn't help but said: "How can it be exaggerated! The relationship between Ohm I and Elim I is real, and Menis II who are behind them It is specially recorded in words, and these are all real historical facts with one stroke, and they are not imagined by future generations with just a few words!"

After her words fell, the female students around nodded their heads one after another. They girls are the least resistant to this kind of romantic love!

Several boys booed, and the freckled male student who asked the question wanted to refute, but Ariel said in time: "It's true, whether it's the relationship between the two pharaohs or their superhuman mysterious mana, It's all true."

The male student wanted to say something, but seeing the serious look in the female professor's eyes, he couldn't say anything—oh, since Professor Ariel said it was true, it must be true, and women's beautiful fantasies should be respected .What's more, it doesn't affect their study of this period of history. For example, don't their boys also have an unusual insistence on superhuman aliens!

Seeing the boy's expression, Ariel knew that the boy didn't understand what she meant, but she didn't intend to explain more.

Touching the words on the pages of the book, Ariel is still occasionally in a trance until now. Is that period of history a dream of her own or a real experience?

"Honey, it's time to go home, today is an important day, please pity your little lamb." A magnetic voice sounded behind her, and Ariel came back to her senses, only to realize that get out of class had been over for a long time , There are only a few people left in the classroom.

The freckled male student originally mustered up the courage to ask out Ariel, but when he saw this tall and handsome man who appeared behind Ariel, his courage disappeared with a snort—he was right Watches are worth millions.

After Ariel and her fiancé also left, the students in the classroom also left one after another, and Ohm and Elim who were sitting in the far corner...or Key stood up.

To be honest, Ohm didn't expect that in the first world he and Key, who had recovered all his memories, would meet "acquaintances", but neither he nor Key planned to go up to say hello.Because they have officially become the guides of the evolutionaries, even though there are Ariel, Ohm and Elim in this world, the rules of the whole world are actually different.

In layman's terms, it can be understood as a derivative world, or a parallel world.

Key picked up Ohm's schoolbag and took his hand. He already had memories of many previous worlds. Although he no longer cares about gains and losses for Ohm, he is more possessive: "Let's go dear, let's see Let’s take a look at this new world where real gods exist.”
