"Changfeng, what is the origin of the ancient kingdom of Seleucid? From what you mean, it seems to be more prosperous than the Maurya Dynasty?"

Ying Zheng asked curiously.

The rich and powerful of the Maurya Dynasty and the rulers of Daqin have a deep understanding. It can be said that Daqin can start so many projects at the same time. The large amount of free labor and the continuous spoils of the Maurya Dynasty have all contributed greatly.

According to the statistics of the Neishi Palace, in less than half a year, the precious metals such as gold, silver and copper obtained from the Maurya Dynasty alone are as high as 30 million yuan in cash!

From the view of the cherry blossoms of the Shanheshe, the area of ​​Seleucid is much inferior to that of the Maurya Dynasty, and the population is far inferior.

"Father, this Seleucid Kingdom can be said to be a typical lean camel bigger than a horse!

"In fact, whether it is Seleucid, Ptolemy Egypt that is at war with Seleucid, and the state of Macedonia on the other side of the Mediterranean, they are all divided from the empire founded by a monarch called Alexandria a hundred years ago!,

"This Alexander has always liked the military since he was a child, and he is quite talented whether he is a personal force or a leader in combat.

At only 20 years old, he was ordered to succeed to the Macedonian throne because his father was assassinated, and in just two years, all the rebellions were wiped out!"

After "087", in order to solve the economic depression caused by the war in the country and to maintain the army under his command, Alexander decisively led an army of more than 30,000 infantry and 160 warships to cross the Mediterranean to the Persian Empire. , That is, the current Seleucid region launched the Eastern Expedition,

The rotten Persian Empire could not compete with Alexander at all. Even King Darius III was killed by Alexander. The Persian Empire has since been destroyed, and the vast wealth accumulated over hundreds of years has also been invaded by Alexander. "

"Alexander, who tasted the sweetness, accepted it before seeing him well, and continued to lead the army all the way east, hitting the Haida Speth River as far as the Maurya Dynasty!"

"However, at this time Alexander's generals have begun to gradually corrupt, and they often misappropriated the distribution of trophies, which seriously affected the morale of the army.In addition, the Maurya Dynasty's climate was extremely hot and difficult. The non-combat attrition of Macedonian soldiers from the frigid zone was extremely serious. It caused a mutiny."

"In desperation, Alexander had to lead his army back to Persia, leaving only a small part of the army, and establishing the current Fortress of Terra."

"In the following few years, Alexander has been busy digesting the huge new Nazi territories, and he once encouraged Macedonian soldiers to marry Persia. In the beginning, it really achieved good results!"

"But then Alexander swelled up and began to lose his voice. Klitos, who had rescued Alexander in the Battle of Granicus River, was stabbed to death with a spear at the banquet because of direct advice. ."

"This incident made Alexander's subordinates panic. In order to gain more benefits and soothe the people's hearts, and to eliminate dissidents, Alexander has been stable for less than ten years in disregard, and the national strength that is in urgent need of restoration has decided to launch another crusade."

"However, on the eve of the expedition, Alexander suddenly fell ill and died early at the age of 33.

"Because there was no established heir during his lifetime, after the death of Alexander, a succession dispute broke out in the country. Alexander's mother, wife, and children were killed, and the Alexander Empire was split into Macedonia, Ptolemy, and Seleucid. Big chunks."

"Because of its geographical location, the Seleucid Kingdom basically inherited the wealth that Alexander had looted for many years. Therefore, it was once attacked by Macedonia and Ptolemy in turn. Now even the Romans are eyeing this massive wealth.

Win Changfeng said in a deep voice, feeling very deeply in his heart.

Speaking of it, the collapse of the Alexander Empire is quite similar to the historical Qin Dynasty.

Although Alexander is not as powerful as the first emperor, he is also an absolute master in the West. When Alexander was there, many powerful factions did not dare to act rashly.

However, once Alexander collapsed, the huge empire instantly fell apart. It was a bit of the meaning of the Qin losing its deer and the world chasing it.

To put it bluntly, the common curse is the early days of the founding king, but there is no qualified heir to hold up the backbone.

"This Alexander is indeed a table hero of the first generation, but it's a pity that God is jealous!"

"If you let him live for a few more decades, he will be a big enemy of Da Qin."

There was a trace of longing in Ying Zheng's eyes.

For Emperor Shi, only a character like Alexander was worthy of being his opponent.

"My father overestimated Alexander!"

"This Alexander, leading the army, is indeed extremely talented. If he could be born in Daqin, he would be a famous general.

"However, its ability to coordinate the world is not at the same level as the emperor."

"To put it in a popular way, you can beat the world, but you can't hold it.

"His way of governing the world is very similar to the previous Zhou Martial King, that is, he lays down a place and wins over the local rich and powerful, and promises his high-ranking officials to be generous to ensure temporary peace."

"Alexander's so-called provincial system, the chief officials of the provinces are all from the local clan leaders or leader generals, and the autonomy is still great. In addition to the need to pay taxes, it is also stronger than the princes under the subordinates of Universe. Where to go.

"At the beginning, when Alexander was there, relying on his prestige to slow down many ambitious people,-once Alexander passed away, the local power that held the power was completely out of control, first splitting into Macedonia, Ptolemy, and Seleucid. For the most part, many small countries were successively separated afterwards.

"The system of prefectures and counties directly under the imperial court adopted by the emperor is not a hierarchy at all."

"Actually, the reason Alexander at that time had been fighting all the time was that he often hoped to rely on victory to maintain his prestige. By the way, he would rob a little wealth to satisfy the generals who had a bigger appetite. NS."

"To put it bluntly, it's just a slightly larger Huns or Donghu tribe!"

Win Changfeng smiled faintly.

The strength of Daqin lies in not only the fact that the military is unparalleled in the world, but also the culture and political strategy of the same leadership group, not only can fight the world, but also complete the assimilation, that is, can hold the world.

The reason why it is not called a fighting nation is that it was later invaded by mites, and the other was that the area around the Central Plains was so poor that it was too poor to make ends meet in every battle. Gradually disappeared the heart of opening up the territory.

There is another, that is, most of the opponents in the past have been completely assimilated into their own people, so naturally they are embarrassed to put it out for publicity.

And the root of all this is the unified foundation left by the same text of the first emperor's book, the same track, and the same principle.

Since Emperor Shi Shi, the concept of great unification has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is no longer possible to accept any division!

"It's hard to fight the world, but it's even harder to guard the world!"

Ying Zheng nodded in sympathy.

It only took less than ten years for Daqin to sweep the six countries. However, the first emperor spent ten years and only cleared a small part of the hidden dangers inside.

If it weren't for an incomparably good son like Changfeng, and the sickness that had been overworked before the first emperor, once Da Qin, who lacked qualified heirs, could not be able to support it, it would very likely be in the footsteps of the Alexander Empire.

Fortunately, Changfeng is there to win!

Nowadays, Daqin has not only basically eliminated internal and external troubles, but also developed at a speed far surpassing the former emperor's imagination. No matter in which aspect, it is unprecedentedly powerful.

Now it has created an unprecedented situation in which all nations have come to dynasty, vying for the first to surrender to the Qin Dynasty, which even includes the Maurya Dynasty and Seleucid, which are not inferior to the former great power of the Qin Dynasty!

"The reason why Banchao was able to persuade Seleucus IV this time is because Seleucus has become very war-weary after years of battle, especially after repeated failures."

"If it were not for the strong support of the supervising team sent by Antioch III, it is estimated that the coalition of Ptolemy and Rome would soon be under the city of Antioch, the ancient capital of Seleucid!"

"Once the capital falls, Antioch III's low prestige will fall to the bottom completely. Even if it can escape temporarily, it will be nothing more than Heyan's remnant!"

"When I came to Da Qin for help this time, I was also a little ill and went to the doctor. The money to hire Da Qin to send troops is better than leaving Ptolemy this dead enemy with a stronger mind!"

"As for Da Qin, the prairie servants who are going to be dispatched anyway, even if there are more casualties, they are still within the acceptable range!"

"And Seleucid is too far away from my Daqin after all, and it is a little more decent compared to the scattered Peacock dynasty."

"In addition to its geographical position to guard the strategic points of east and west, the temporary existence of Seleucid is also relatively beneficial to Daqin."

"And as long as we can defeat Ptolemy and the Romans for Seleucid in 4.2, we can leave enough influence in the Seleucid people, and then we can infiltrate it by cultural and economic means. In your hands.

Win Changfeng said solemnly.

"good!

"This prosperous place should be owned by Daqin!"

"The unfinished hegemony of Alexander in the past will be realized by Da Qin!"

The ambition to win the government was completely ignited.

In his whole life, except after winning the son Changfeng, he has never been reconciled to be left behind.

To dominate the world is to create an unprecedented feat.

And now, there are more magnificent hegemonies waiting for him to create and witness!

Under the whole world, could it be Qin Tu?

This ambition that once seemed unattainable is now being realized step by step!

From the eyes of the First Emperor, it was natural to see that once the Maurya Dynasty was taken down, Da Qin had an absolute human advantage.

If Seleucid can be taken again, then there will be no more power in the entire world to compete with Da Qin, and even all the other countries will not be able to unite!

And if Rome can be taken, that dominance of the world will really be basically achieved!.
