Chapter 296: People in the Oracle
Hearing Aristotle's words, Amon couldn't help thinking, and thought of Thales the sage of Midoli. The Thales preached and taught people all kinds of knowledge in the square all day, but everyone laughed at his knowledge being useless to the merchants in Midur City. As a result, Thales borrowed a lot of money from Aesop to do business, made a lot of money, and then went on to preach and impart various knowledge.
Thales was doing business just to prove one thing. The knowledge he passed on was not useless to the merchant, but it was not what he asked for. Thales has proved that he is an excellent businessman, but he is indeed not a businessman. Look at the great magician Aristotle in front of him. He is indeed not a magician, and there is no need to pursue a magician. Identity.
Amon thought of himself again, Zeus had promised him: "Here, you can't be a god!" This agreement sounds funny, because Amon is a god, which is a fact that can't be changed anyway. So how do you both keep this promise and seek inner peace? As soon as he met Aristotle, Amon got the answer.
Everyone often says thank God in their hearts, Amon can only say thank Aristotle at this time.
Seeing Amon's groaning, Eisen finally couldn't help but ask, "What should we do with these assassins? Especially the Merlin High Priest, he is an important figure in the city of Aaron!"
Aristotle glanced at the stunned assassins lying on the avenue, thinking about it and answering: "Take it all away and wait until it's safe."
Amon said, "Mr. Aristotle, where I am, is a safe place."
Eisen asked again, "What should we do with these people after interrogation? We can't take so many captives on the road."
These assassins are now identified as prisoners of war. In the conflicts in the cities of Heaton, the treatment of prisoners of war is basically the same, and nobles with identity will be detained, requiring the other party to pay a large ransom, and civilian prisoners of war who have no "value" may be resold as slaves Sometimes it is executed or released.
Since these people were captured by Amon, they are Amun's "trophy", so how to deal with it has to seek Amon's opinion. Aristotle also said, "This group of assassins is very important to the Kingdom of Heaton. If possible, I want to bring them all back. Amon, Medanzo, if you want a ransom, the Kingdom of Heaton Can pay, please let me take people away. "
Amon waved his hand: "Despite your disposal, I don't need any ransom. From now on, they are your captives."
Eisen frowned. "Why do we take these assassins back so far? These people are here to kill and kill the people. If the news leaks out, I am afraid someone will kill the assassins in the middle of the road."
Medanzo laughed: "Don't worry, we are here to **** Mr. Aristotle. The thirty assassins can be escorted by me alone, and I promise to let them go on the road honestly, so you don't have to worry about it. Now. "
Aristotle commanded the guards: "Dispose of these assassins first, and search for extras on your body, even if they are your spoils. They settle in the mountains, they cannot come on foot, and the horses must be hiding somewhere nearby. Place. Our war horses have lost. Go and find those horses. "
When the guards heard that there was cheap to occupy, they went to search the assassin's body cheerfully, and some people went to find the hidden horses in the mountains. Thanks to the generosity of Amon and Aristotle, everyone is a small fortune. Besides, the weapons carried by the assassins are also very valuable.
At this time, a big warrior had woke up, unable to move, and found a guard roaming in his arms, blushing and shouting, "I am the big warrior Moile of Aaron City, you Don't be so rude! Even if I am a captive, I want the courtesy of the captives! "
Medanzo stepped forward and kicked him lightly, sneer: "Polite? Why don't you mention courtesy when you are ambushing here to kill people? Amazing samurai, don't shake your power here, be honest Lie down! "
The guards did find dozens of war horses in the hideout of the nearby mountains and forests. Medanzo awakened the assassins. Not only did he limit the power with the magic technique, but he tied his hands into two strings and let them follow the mission. The convoy walked behind. Medanzo was escorted from the back of a horse while Amon and Aristotle rode in the same car.
At this point, Eisen knew that not only was there a great magician in the assassin team, but there were also two great warriors! Could not help but be more afraid, fortunately, Amon and Medanzo shot, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Such a team looks really strange, they walked out of the mountain to a town in the afternoon, which caused the onlookers of the local residents.
Medanzo tied the assassins with his hands and followed the team with ropes one by one, but Aristotle did not stop, Amon guessed the sage's intention, and quietly ordered A few words from Medanzo.
Did the high priest Merlin of the city of Aaron experience such humiliation? The tied hands were tied with a rope, and they walked along the streets with a group of captives to receive onlookers, and the child spit at him and threw stones, just like a monkey. The town officials were sighed when they heard that the mission of the Kingdom of Macedonia had been attacked in the mountains. They were relieved to learn that there were no casualties, but then they started to worry, because someone recognized it. Merlin also had two other Samurai warriors.
Local officials came to offer condolences and apologize while resting in the post tonight. They said that the envoy met the gangsters here, which is the responsibility of poor public security management, and hoped that the ambassadors would hand the gangsters to the local sheriff for severe punishment. Receiving these men, Eisen shook his head and said, "They are not assassins but assassins. They are now our captives and are brought back to the Kingdom of Macedonia for disposal."
Local officials also said, "We are willing to pay Aristotle and Lord Eisen how much ransom money is required." But Eisen refused this request under the direction of Aristotle, and the redemption of prisoners of war had to be submitted to the Kingdom of Macedonia. Pleasantly, when the mission returns to Macedonia, the local officials of Midoli need not intervene.
Officials in the town were helpless and had to send someone to the city of Aaron to report overnight. The next day, Aristotle's convoy continued to leave Midurli and entered the city of Olintos. In the city state of Olintos, thirty assassins were still tied into two strings to follow the convoy, which almost aroused the onlookers of the city. Of course, Merlin and the two warriors were recognized again.
So the same thing happened. Some people asked for the redemption of the "prisoners of war", and some people asked Aristotle to hand over the "Assassins" to the local sheriff for severe punishment, but they were rejected by Aristotle for the same reason. On the way, Aristotle did not ask who the assassins were, nor did they interrogate anyone. The captives were also frightened, wondering what Master Aristotle meant, and what fate was waiting for them?
Especially the three arrogant great achievers, this kind of torture is more uncomfortable than killing them with one stroke. Several times along the way, they asked to be questioned quickly, but Maidanzuo ignored it. They are assassins who assassinate the Macedonian mission. Even if someone wants to rescue or destroy their mouths, it is not easy to openly. They can only set up an ambush in a hidden place. When the convoy left the border of the city state of Olintos, they encountered another group of "Assassins" in the mountains.
The target of the assassin attack was not Aristotle's convoy, but the group of captive prisoners following the convoy. As a result, after the team walked out of the forest, the thirty captives escorted by Medan Zou became ninety, walking on the road with a bit of mighty meaning, and then heading north to enter the territory controlled by the Kingdom of Macedonia.
The second batch of assassins was also sent urgently by the city of Aaron, and was still taken down by Amon and Medanzo. Medanzo deliberately mixed the first batch of assassins with the second batch of assassins, tied the strings again, so that they could talk to each other on the road, and the captives quarreled.
The captured warrior Moilei yelled at the commander of the second assassin team, claiming that he was assassinated by the order of the city-state to assassinate the mission of the Kingdom of Macedonia, and was unfortunately captured. It's so shameless to kill them!
Medanzo couldn't help but curse: "Mr. Aristotle has no injustice with you. He wanted to tear up as soon as he signed the covenant, but he used nasty assassinations and was embarrassed to scold others!" Not to mention.
A group of more than 20 people, with 90 prisoners of war, walked through the towns of the Kingdom of Macedonia and watched the people all the way down to the Macedonian city-state. They had not seen the walls of Macedonia, but there was smoke rising in the distance, the hoof hoaring flags fluttered, King Philip II led the guard out of the city to greet him, and gave the returning mission the highest standard of courtesy.
...
The Kingdom of Macedonia was a state that emerged in the later period of the Hippo War. Now King Philip II is also a great hero. When the Army of Poz had just invaded, the Kingdom of Macedonia had once surrendered to Poz. The Poz people requisitioned local civilians to build military forts and transport logistical supplies.
At that time, Philip II was the uncle of the young king. He sent a group of cronies to the militias, spied and collected various intelligences of the Boz, and analyzed and sorted out the army of Boz on the Heaton Peninsula. A series of information such as the distribution of military forces and the transportation routes of materials were provided to the south of Kibada and Aaron. In the subsequent battle of Hippo, military information provided by Philip II played an important role.
After the Hippo war, the Boz army withdrew from the Hitton Peninsula. The situation in Macedonia was chaotic for a time. Philip II took the opportunity to abolish the young king and personally ascended the throne. This not only calmed down the situation of the state, but also helped the Kingdom of Macedonia rise to fill After Poz withdrew, the surrounding area had a vacuum of chaotic power.
At this time, in the south of the Heaton Peninsula, the Aaron Alliance and the Kibada Alliance competed for hegemony, and civil wars continued one after another. In the relatively calm north, the sphere of influence controlled by the Kingdom of Macedonia has been quietly expanding, and the place where the Bozians withdrew was immediately occupied by Macedonia. When both Aaron and Kibada, who were trapped in the quagmire of the civil war, were severely injured, the climate of the Kingdom of Macedonia had become the most powerful force in the north of the Heaton Peninsula.
As the country expands and its national strength becomes stronger and stronger, it has neither internal concerns nor external problems. The Kingdom of Macedonia has ushered in a golden period of development. Philip II specially invited the famous sage Aristotle as a court teacher to teach his younger son Alexander. When the ambitionist Fox incited the scuffle between Aaron and Kibada into an uncontrollable situation, and the Poz force made a comeback, Philip II finally decided to calm down the southern part of the Heaton Peninsula.
He sent a mission to the city of Aaron to discuss the alliance, with the intention of ending the civil war and reunifying Heaton and completely expelling the Boz forces. The Aaron made a covenant, but turned back and turned back, sending an assassin in an attempt to make the mission disappear forever. But the assassin was missed and captured, instead being taken back to Macedonia.
Before Aristotle arrived, Philip II received the news. The king wasn't embarrassed, but rather overjoyed. In his opinion, Aaron, who was dead, was seeking death by himself. Originally, he just made a covenant according to the traditional custom between the states of the Heaton Peninsula, but the behavior of apostasy by the city of Aaron gave him an excuse for complete unity .
Aristotle could capture the Assassins alive, and bring them back to Macedonia as living evidence. It was so beautiful! In this case, if the Macedonian army moved south, the states of the Heaton Peninsula would have nothing to say, so Philip II personally left the city to meet the mission. He did not hesitate to go out of the city for dozens of miles and was in such an urgent mood for another reason.
The main **** that Macedonia believed in was Zeus. Just the night before Aristotle returned, Philip II received a shrine from Zeus and told someone that he would follow Aristotle to the Kingdom of Macedonia. This kingdom brings unprecedented feats, even beyond the imagination of everyone's wishes!
The shrine didn't say who this man was, and Philip II was heartily encouraged. In his opinion, only those captives brought back by Aristotle already had great value.
...
Aristotle handed over the signed covenant and captive to the king, even if he completed his mission. This is perhaps the most dramatic covenant in the history of the United Kingdom of Heaton, because it was torn when it was handed over to the other party.
I don't know if the elites in the city of Aaron will cry, because that covenant clearly states that the two nations will form an alliance and will not invade each other, and will jointly defend against foreign enemies. But now the covenant has lapsed, and the captives are evidence of the Aaron breaking the covenant.
Since Zeus's deities did not mention the name of the "person", in theory he may be any one newly brought by Aristotle, or it may be among the prisoners of war. Therefore, Philip II had to deal with it carefully. None of the captives had been killed. They were placed under house arrest and interrogated separately. They were given preferential treatment but were not allowed to be redeemed.
The interrogation was not difficult, and even without a sentence, many people took the initiative to confess. It was enough for Medanzo to toss them all the way, and Philip II who treated them was like a savior sent by the gods.
