Reversing Greek Mythology

Chapter 39 The Late Hero of Diomedes

When Agamemnon was still alive, Mycenae was the most powerful city-state in mainland Greece, and the king of Mycenae was the king of kings in mainland Greece.

Before the Trojan War began, if Luoyin wanted to attack the city of Mycenae, he would definitely be opposed by everyone.

Unfortunately, the ten-year Trojan War has exhausted the national power of the city of Mycenae, and it no longer has the authority of the strongest city-state in mainland Greece.

Seeing that the nobles and elders had neither objection nor support, Luo Yin continued.

"When the Greek coalition attacked Troy, Agamemnon was the commander-in-chief of the Greek coalition. After the Greek coalition attacked Troy, more than half of the spoils fell into the hands of Agamemnon, and these spoils were also taken by Agamemnon. Memnon brings the city of Mycenae safely. As long as we capture the city, we can share the spoils that Agamemnon brought back from Troy."

After hearing Luo Yin's words, the nobles stood up and said with wide eyes.

"Prince, I am willing to lead a hundred soldiers to follow you to attack the city of Mycenae."

"I can lead two hundred soldiers into battle."

"I have five hundred soldiers!"

Nestor couldn't help but say.

"We in Pylos will send two thousand soldiers to fight."

Looking at these people who actively participated in the battle to share the spoils of war, Luo Yin said with a smile.

"You all know that I have the power to destroy the city of Troy with one person. I give you the opportunity to participate in the war and share the spoils. I just want you to help me occupy various city-states in the Argos region, so you only need to form A coalition force of about 5,000 men went out with me."

Five thousand people——

To occupy various city-states in the Argos region, this number is too small.

Luo Yin continued without paying attention to everyone's reactions.

"Zeus, a foreign god from Cronus [Crete], followed the Mycenaeans to the Peloponnese Peninsula. Not only did he become the king of the gods when the Mycenaeans were dominant, but he also After we have physically destroyed many humans and gods who are unwilling to surrender to Zeus, I will drive Zeus, the foreign god from Cronus [Crete], out of the Peloponnese. Peninsula, what do you think?”

An old elder said immediately.

"Prince! Zeus became the current king of the gods with the hegemony of the Mycenaeans. You want to overthrow the hegemony of the Mycenaeans and drive away Zeus, a foreign god. You want to annihilate the patron goddess of Sparta. Will Hera become the Queen of the Gods?"

At this moment, Hermione's figure appeared at the door of the hall.

Looking at the red boy who was the incarnation of Hera, Luo Yin shook his head and said.

"Since humans can also become gods, we can worship a human who is more powerful than Heracles and Achilles as a new god, and then make the new god the king of the gods."

A human being more powerful than Heracles and Achilles——

Looking at the past and present, the only human being more powerful than Hercules and Achilles is you!

After Nestor and the noble elders of Sparta left to gather the soldiers, Hermione walked up to Luo Yin, turned around and sat on Luo Yin's knees, lying her petite body in Luo Yin's arms and said.

"My dear fiancé, if you become the King of the Gods, will Hera be your God Queen?"

This seems to be a gift!

Luo Yin said with a helpless smile.

"I said that I wanted to become a new god and the king of the gods, but you actually took it seriously? Human heroes used to become gods after death. Unless I can become a god alive, can I become a new god and the king of the gods? King, it’s not up to me to decide at all.”

"If you became the king of the gods, would you let Hera be your queen?"

"I refuse to answer hypothetical questions."

Hearing Luo Yin's answer, Hermione left Luo Yin's arms, turned around and stared at Luo Yin with her red child.

Feeling that the air was condensing, Luo Yin couldn't help but become nervous.

After all, the original Hera, as the patron saint of the city-state, had stronger combat attributes than Athena, the goddess of wisdom.

"tonight……"

Hermione frowned and said dissatisfiedly with her lovely eyebrows.

"Just sleep on your throne!"

After saying that, Hermione turned and left angrily.

After watching Hermione leave, Luo Yin crossed his legs and rested his head on the armrest of the throne.

"I thought you were going to turn into Hera and beat me up! I'm not a henpecker, but I won't give in to you. It feels very comfortable to sleep on my throne - the armrests are really cold and hard. !”

Three days later.

Luo Yin marched towards Mycenae with the five thousand troops gathered outside Sparta, while Hermione stayed in Sparta to provide logistics for Luo Yin.

The city of Sparta was the leader of the city-states in the southern part of the Peloponnese Peninsula, so Luo Yin's army was not hindered by the southern city-states.

When Luo Yin entered the northern part of the Peloponnese Peninsula, there was still no city-state fighting against Luo Yin.

After all, Hermione was Agamemnon's niece and also had the right to inherit the throne of Mycenae.

Luo Yin is Hermione's fiancé, so Luo Yin's crusade against Aegisthus is also seen as a power struggle in the same family.

Of course, the city-states in the northern Peloponnese Peninsula did not hinder Luoyin. The real reason was that the city of Mycenae, ruled by Aegisthus, no longer had the authority to order the city-states in the northern Peloponnese Peninsula.

After Luo Yin's army entered the Argos region, an army of three thousand people came to fight Luo Yin.

The commander of this army was Diomedes, the king of Argos who was favored by the war goddess Pallas and stabbed Ares, the god of war, and Aphrodite, the god of love, on the Trojan battlefield.

Diomedes was already a famous hero who captured the city of Thebes when Hercules was still alive. His age was not much different from that of the elderly Nestor.

Luo Yin rode his war horse to the front of Diomedes' army. Seeing that Diomedes on the chariot was already a gray-haired old man, Luo Yin couldn't help laughing.

"Diomedes, you seem to be too old to walk, and you dare to become my enemy. Do you think you are still loved by Pallas Athena and can stab Ares and Aphrodite? Diomedes? Now I finally understand the reason why your wife Aegialea wanted to be the lover of your charioteer Sterneros's son, Kometes, not Aphrodite, the goddess of love. I took revenge on you because you were too old."

Diomedes and Agamemnon were both kings of city-states in the Argos region. They were both betrayed by their wives after returning to their hometowns.

Agamemnon's wife Clytemnestra became lovers with Aegisthus, and Diomedes's wife Aegialea became lovers with Sterneros's son Kometes.

When Diomedes returned to Argos, he was also murdered by Aegialea and Kometes.

But under the protection of Pallas Athena, Diomedes defeated Aegialea and Kometes and regained the throne.
