Hearing Aristotle's words, Amun could not help but think of Thales, the sage of miduli. Thales preached and imparted all kinds of knowledge to the people in the square all day long, but they laughed at his knowledge, which was of no use to the merchants in miduli. As a result, Thales borrowed money from Aesop to do business and made a lot of money. Then he went to preach and impart knowledge.
Thales did business only to prove one thing. The knowledge he imparted was not useless to the merchant, but it was not what he wanted. Thales has proved that he is an excellent businessman, but he is not a businessman. If you look at Aristotle, the great magician in front of him, he is not really a magician, and there is no need to pursue the identity of a magician.
Amun thought of himself again. Zeus had agreed with him: "you can't be a God here!" This agreement sounds funny, because Amun is a God, which can't be changed in any way. So how can we not only abide by this agreement, but also seek inner peace? As soon as he met Aristotle, Amun got the answer.
Where people often say thank God in their hearts, amon can only say thanks to Aristotle.
Seeing Amun's silence, Ethan finally couldn't help asking, "what are we going to do with these assassins? Especially the high priest Merlin, who is an important figure in the city of yalon
Aristotle took a look at the unconscious assassins lying on the road, thought for a moment and replied, "take them all away until they are safe."
Amun said, "Mr. Aristotle, it's a safe place to be with me."
"After the interrogation, what are we going to do with these people?" Eisen asked? We can't take so many prisoners on the road. "
These assassins are now equivalent to prisoners of war. In the conflicts among the cities of hitton, the treatment of prisoners of war was basically the same. The aristocrats with status would be detained and asked to pay a large amount of ransom. The civilian prisoners of war with no "value" might be sold into slaves, and sometimes they would be executed or released.
As these people were captured by Amun, they were Amun's "booty". How to deal with them still needs to ask Amun's advice. Aristotle added: "this group of assassins is very important to the kingdom of Macedonian, and I want to take them all back if possible. Amun and medanzo, if you want a ransom, the kingdom of Macedonian can pay for it. Please let me take the people away. "
Amun waved his hand: "you can handle it. I don't need any ransom. From now on, they will be your captives."
Eisen frowned. "How can we take these assassins back so far? These people are here to kill people. If the news gets out, I'm afraid someone will try to kill these assassins on the way. "
"Don't worry, we're here to escort Mr. Aristotle. These 30 assassins can be escorted by me alone. I promise to let them go on the road honestly, so you don't have to worry about it. "
Aristotle told the guards, "first, disarm these assassins, and find out what's left of them, even if they are your booty. They ambushed in the mountains. They couldn't have come on foot. The horses must have been hiding somewhere nearby. We have lost our horses. Go and find them too
As soon as the guards heard that there was something cheap to take advantage of, they happily searched for the assassin's body, and others went to find the hidden horses in the mountain. Thanks to the generosity of Amun and Aristotle, we have made a small fortune. Let alone, the weapons carried by assassins are very valuable.
At this time, one of the great warriors woke up, his whole body was limp and could not move. He found a guard touching him in his arms, turned red and roared angrily: "I'm moiley, the great warrior of Yalun city. You can't be so rude! Even if I were a prisoner, I would ask for the courtesy of a prisoner! "
Medanzo stepped forward and gave him a kick, sneering: "courtesy? Why don't you mention courtesy when you ambush here to kill people? Is the warrior great? Don't brag about here and lie down
As expected, the guards found dozens of horses in the shelter of the nearby mountain forest. Medanzo woke up all the assassins. He not only limited their strength with magic techniques, but also tied his hands in two strings to let them walk behind the convoy of the mission. Medanzo was escorted on a horse, while amon was on the road in the same car as Aristotle.
At this point, Eisen knew that there was not only a great magician in the assassin team, but also two great warriors! I can't help but be more scared. Thanks to Amun and medanzo, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
Such a team looked so strange that they came out of the mountain to a town that afternoon, causing a crowd of local residents.
Mendanzo tied the Assassins' hands and tied them together with ropes. Aristotle didn't stop them. Amun guessed the sage's intention and quietly gave him a few orders.
Did Merlin, the high priest of the city of Jaron, suffer such humiliation? He was tied with his hands tied with ropes, and walked in the streets with a group of prisoners to receive onlookers. There were children spitting at him and throwing stones at him, just like watching monkey playing. The town officials were shocked to learn that the Macedonian delegation had been attacked in the mountains. They were relieved to learn that there were no casualties. However, they began to worry again because someone recognized Merlin and two other warriors.During the rest in the post house that evening, local officials came to express sympathy and apologize. They said that it was the responsibility of poor public security management that the special envoy met the gangsters here, and hoped that the special envoy would hand over these criminals to the local security officer for severe punishment. Eisen received these people. He shook his head and said, "they are not gangsters but assassins. Now they are our prisoners. They should be taken back to the kingdom of Macedonian."
"We are willing to pay as much ransom as Aristotle and Lord Essen need," the local official added However, Eisen refused this request under the instruction of Aristotle. To redeem the prisoners of war, he had to make a request to the kingdom of Macedonian. After the mission returned to Macedonian, the local officials of mituli did not have to intervene.
The officials of the town had no choice but to send a message to the city of Yalun overnight. The next day, Aristotle's motorcade continued to leave the territory of miduli and enter the city of Olympus. In the city-state of Olympus, thirty assassins are still tied up in two groups to follow the motorcade, which almost causes the whole city people to watch. Merlin and the two warriors are of course recognized.
So the same thing happened. Some people asked for the redemption of "prisoners of war", others asked Aristotle to hand over the "Assassin" to the local magistrate for severe punishment, but Aristotle refused for the same reason. Along the way, Aristotle did not ask what the assassins were, nor did he interrogate anyone. The captives were also terrified, not knowing what Aristotle meant and what fate was waiting for them?
In particular, the three proud great achievers felt worse than killing them with a knife. They asked to be interrogated several times along the way, but medanzo ignored them. They are the assassins who assassinate the Macedonian mission. Even if someone wants to rescue or exterminate, it is not easy to do so openly. They can only ambush in a hidden place. When the motorcade left the border of Olympus city state, they met another group of "assassins" in the mountains.
The target of the assassin's attack was not Aristotle's motorcade, but the helpless prisoners who followed the convoy. As a result, after the team got out of the forest, the prisoners escorted by medanzo changed from 30 to 90. Walking along the road was quite a bit of a mighty force. Then they went northward and entered the territory controlled by the kingdom of Macedonian.
The second group of assassins was also urgently sent by the city of Yalun, and was captured by Amun and medanzo. Medanzo deliberately mixed the first group of assassins with the second group of assassins and tied them with ropes again so that they could talk to each other on the road. As a result, the prisoners quarreled with each other.
The captured warrior moylai yelled at the commander of the second assassin team, claiming that he was under the secret order of the city-state and risked his life to assassinate the Macedonian delegation. Unfortunately, he was captured by accident. The city-state sent reinforcements to the city, but he did not try to rescue them, but killed them. What a shame!
Medanzo could not help but curse: "Mr. Aristotle has no injustice or hatred with you. He just signed the treaty and wanted to tear it up in a flash, but he took a mean and dirty assassination method. Fortunately, he wanted to scold others!" All the prisoners bowed their heads.
A delegation of more than 20 people, with 90 prisoners of war, passed through the towns of the kingdom of Macedonian and came down to the Macedonian city-state in the crowd. Before they could see the Macedonian walls, smoke and dust rose in the distance, the sound of horses' hooves, and the flags were flying. King Philip II led his guards out of the city to greet them and gave them the highest standard of courtesies.
……
The kingdom of Macedonian was a state which rose in the late period of the Hebrew war. Now King Philip II is also a great hero. At the beginning of the invasion of Boz army, the kingdom of Macedonian was once subject to Boz. The Boz people expropriated local civilians to build military fortresses and transport logistics supplies.
At that time, Philip II was the uncle of the young king. He sent a group of his cronies to spy on and collect all kinds of information about the Boz people. He also analyzed and sorted out a series of information about the distribution of forces of the Boz army on the hitton Peninsula, and provided them to kibada and Yalun in the south. In the later battle of Hippo, the military information provided by Philip II played an important role.
After the end of the Greek Polish war, the Persian army withdrew from the hitton Peninsula, and the situation in Macedonian was once very chaotic. Philip II took the opportunity to depose the young king and ascend to the throne in person, which not only calmed down the situation of his own country, but also took advantage of the situation to fill the power vacuum in the surrounding areas after the withdrawal of Boz.
At this time, in the south of the hitton Peninsula, the alliance of Yalun and the alliance of kibata were contending for hegemony, and civil wars broke out one after another. In the north, where the situation is relatively stable, the sphere of influence controlled by the kingdom of Macedonian has been quietly expanding, and the place where the Boz people withdrew was occupied by Macedonian. By the time Yalun and kibata, trapped in the quagmire of civil war, were greatly weakened. The climate of the kingdom of Macedonian had become the most powerful force in the northern part of the hitton peninsula.
The kingdom of Macedonian has ushered in a golden period of development due to the expansion of its territory and the growing strength of the country. Philip II specially invited the famous sage Aristotle as a court teacher to teach his young son Alexander. When the careerist fox provoked the scuffle between Yalun and kibata to an uncontrollable situation, and the forces of Boz came back again, Philip II finally decided to pacify the southern part of the hitton peninsula.
He sent a delegation to the city of Yalun to discuss the alliance. The purpose was to end the civil war, unify hitton, and completely expel the power of the Persians. The yalens made an alliance, but they turned back and sent assassins to try to make the mission disappear forever. But the assassin was caught by mistake and brought back to Macedonian.Before Aristotle arrived, Philip II received the news. Instead of becoming angry, the king was overjoyed. In his opinion, Yaron, who is in the end of his life, is looking for his own death. Originally, he only made an alliance according to the traditional customs among the states in the hitton peninsula. However, the treacherous behavior of the city-state of Yalun gave him an excuse for complete reunification.
Aristotle was able to capture the assassin alive and bring it back to Macedonian as living evidence! In this case, if the Macedonian army went south, the states of the hitton peninsula had nothing to say, so Philip II himself went out of the city to meet the mission. There was another reason why he was so eager to leave the city for dozens of miles.
The main god of Macedonian belief is Zeus. On the night before Aristotle's return, Philip II received an Oracle from Zeus, telling him that someone would follow Aristotle to the kingdom of Macedonian. This person would bring unprecedented achievements to this kingdom, even beyond the imagination of all people!
The Oracle did not say who this man was, but Philip II was very happy. In his opinion, only the captives brought back by Aristotle had great value.
……
Aristotle gave the king the signed covenant and prisoners, even if he had completed his mission. This is perhaps the most dramatic covenant in the history of the United Kingdom of hitton, because it was torn when it was handed over to the other side.
I don't know if the dignitaries in the city of Yalun will cry, because it is clearly stated in the covenant that the two states will form an alliance, not invade each other, and will jointly resist foreign enemies. But now the covenant is no longer valid, and the captives are evidence of the destruction of the covenant by the jaronites.
Since the name of the "man" was not mentioned in the oracle of Zeus, theoretically, he may be any new person brought back by Aristotle, or he may be among the prisoners of war. So Philip II had to be careful. He did not kill any of the captives. They were all under house arrest, interrogated separately and given preferential treatment, but were not allowed to redeem them.
There was no difficulty in interrogation, and even without the use of torture, many people voluntarily confessed. It's enough for medanzo to toss them all the way, and Philip II, who favored them, was like a savior sent by the gods.
