330, three hundred years of shock

Alexander claimed to be the son of Améng in the temple, but no oracle came, because Améng could no longer know all this. As Artemis said, when Alexander offered sacrifices to him in the temple, this god who had re-entered the world might be a baby in a cradle.

Perhaps it is the creatures traveling in the jungle, or perhaps it is the seeds germinated in the soil.

Even if Ah Méng is still in the kingdom of heaven, he will not give up the oracle because of this. He told the world that there is a way to transcend eternal life, which is the last oracle of Ah Méng.

Alexander conquered Eju and knew how to win people's hearts with his throne. Not only did he claim to be the son of Améng, he also ordered a new port to be built at the mouth of the Ronnie River north of Mengfeis, and named Alexandria after himself to promote his unparalleled achievements. Not only that, he also ordered the rebuilding of the Temple of Isis in Alexandria and fulfilled his promise to Medanzo.

Although the goddess Isis had long died, she was still the Virgin Mary Angel believed in by people in Eju. When this temple was completed, some older people discovered something that the Virgin Mary on the altar was no longer the same. The craftsmen of Eju even sculpted her into the last Isis temple to protect the Saint Mary.

The people of Eju have never seen Isis, and their memories of the goddess have faded away, but when it comes to Isis, people will think of Mary, the last guardian of the Temple of Isis, who countless people have seen her. This may be a coincidence that the craftsmen incorporated the image of Mary into the statue of Isis, or Alexander intentionally.

If Ahméng knew what the emperor did, he would at least have a favor to him. Alexander knew not only to win over the hearts of the people, but also to the gods' preferences. The Alexander port he built was more magnificent than any city-state on the mainland. It not only surpassed Mengfeisi City, but also surpassed the long-standing city of Barron on the mainland.

Alexander not only requisitioned the national strength of Eju, but also used the power of the entire Macedonian Empire to build this new city-state. It was a miracle on the Tianshu Continent for hundreds of years and became the cultural and commercial center of the Tianshu Continent.

Alexander himself stayed in Eju for a year and was not yet fully built, and he led his troops to fight east again. His route to the east was exactly the opposite of the route to the Uruk Corps led by Gilgamesh, who crossed the southern part of the Syrian desert to attack the territory of the former Baron Kingdom. On the field on the bank of the Youdi River, the Macedonian army and the Boz army, which was known as one million, launched the final decisive battle.

At this time, the Boz Empire had lost the territory on the west bank of the Youdi River. It was like a severely damaged mud-footed giant, aggregating the final strength to fight against the rising Macedonian Empire, but was completely overturned to the ground again. Alexander achieved a decision-making victory and defeated the last main force of the Boz Empire. Taking advantage of the victory to cross the Youdi River, he was as if he had entered a no-man's land and successfully occupied the oldest and most magnificent Baron City on the Tianshu Continent.

The towering gate of the gods outside the city of Barron is now a ruin covered with smoke marks, like a huge and desolate monument. In the era of Cyrus and Darius, the conquerors of Boz did not force the Barrons to change their belief in Marduk, but after Darius' death, Xerxes, the successor, promoted the Great Light Church throughout Boz and ordered the burning of the gate of the gods.

Alexander came to the Gate of God to pay tribute to the ruins and announced in public that he would restore this magnificent miracle. This made the people of Barron very excited, but this project was too great. Just to clear the declining rubble and gravel of the Gate of God, it would require the mobilization of tens of thousands of people.

Over the past few hundred years, it is easy to damage the brilliant buildings built by people from all ages, but it is too difficult to restore them.

Alexander only made a gesture and did not repair the Gate of Gods in the end. However, he rebuilt the Temple of Malduk in Barron and led the people to sacrifice to Malduk in person, gaining favor from the locals and the support of the traditional priesthood group. At the grand sacrifice ceremony, Alexander also called himself "Son of Malduk".

It is conceivable how solemn and the sacred title of "Son of Marduk" added a sacred halo to Alexander's rule, and he was praised and respected by all people. When people look up to this godlike emperor, they must be in a state of fear.

However, Alexander's behavior in the world made Artemis and Mu Yun laugh at the clouds. They were in a serious mood, but when they saw Alexander first called himself the son of Améng in Ecuador, he ran to Barron and called himself the son of Marduk, he still couldn't help laughing.

Alexander used the most solemn and sacred rituals to make the gods in the sky laugh. Artebis smiled and shook his head and said, "Who taught him this? I really don't see you, and you don't separate!" Alexander really learned the majestic and magnificent court etiquette, put on the costumes of the Great Boz to accept the ceremonies of people and followed the provincial system created by Cyrus. The provincial jurisdictions of the Macedonian Empire roughly refer to the settings of the Boz Empire. However, compared with the Boz era, the Macedonian era strengthened the rule of monarchy, and the military, finance and civil affairs of local provinces implemented the separation of powers to restrain each other.

Alexander also carried out a number of reforms to promote the integration of various tribes within the entire empire. In the minds of many people in the Greek city-state, they believed that only those who believed in the Olympus gods on the Heaton Peninsula were civilized nations, and the rest of the places were barbarians. Of course, Alexander was not such a frog in the well. He knew that the civilization on the Tianshu continent had a longer period of glory and long history, and the people there also had extraordinary wisdom and talent.

Alexander not only promoted this integration by establishing a unified provincial system, but also used marriages between tribes and expanded joint combat operations to break the traditional boundaries, which not only won over local nobles, but also solved the problem of military source. The emperor was particularly keen on holding collective weddings and encouraging his soldiers to marry local noble women. Every time he conquered a new country, he often held an unprecedented collective slack.

Alexander himself set an example, and he married women from different places. Under his leadership, more than 10,000 Macedonian soldiers married women from various tribes. In Alexander's tabernacle, the nobles and priests from various tribes were loyal to him.

This is an unprecedented fusion, and among the people, it is also the greatest civilization exchange in a thousand years.

Alexander rested in Barron for a year, and his army conquered the territory of the original Assyrian Empire and continued to advance eastward into the original Boz land. Darius III was killed by his subordinates, and the glorious Boz Empire was destroyed. Alexander captured the traitor of Boz who was plotting to murder Darius III and executed him for the crime of monarchy. He mourned Darius III with the emperor's courtesy and declared himself the heir to the Boz Empire.

So far, Macedonia had completely conquered and annexed the Boz Empire, but his conquest had not stopped. He took a few years to integrate this huge empire, and then led his army to cross the Boz land and continued to go west into India. Here, Alexander encountered the most difficult battle since the Eastern Expedition. The Macedonian phalanx encountered the elephant formation of the Indians. The battle was very tragic, and both sides suffered heavy casualties, but in the end, Alexander, who was still a genius, won.

He established three new provinces on the west bank of the Tianzhu River. At this time, the territory of the Macedonian Empire was not far from Kunlun, but they were separated by the most insurmountable plateau in the world. Alexander wanted to continue to march eastward and conquer the entire Tianzhu, but the army had gone too far. The soldiers fought for many years and went to completely unfamiliar places, and they had no intention of carrying out such endless conquests.

After the morale of the army changed, Alexander had to temporarily withdraw his troops. He divided his troops and led his troops around the Assyrian plateau and returned to Barron by land. Another navy set out from the mouth of the Tianzhu River and returned along the coastline to meet with Alexander to complete the greatest military achievements in the history of the Tianshu continent.

Artemis and Mu Yun have been paying attention to Alexander on the clouds, trying to discover traces of Améng's reincarnation along the route of the emperor's conquest. When Alexander successfully returned to the Tianzhu River Basin, he was obviously unwilling to accept it. He returned to Barron to reorganize his troops and planned to move his troops west one day.

Artemis and Mu Yun thought in their hearts, if it were at that time, would the Macedonian emperor claim to be the son of Brahma or even the son of Infinite Light? If so, what would Zeus have, angry or bitterly smiled? But we have to admit that the series of measures taken by Alexander in his expansion have consolidated the rapid-forming empire to the greatest extent possible and brought the worship of the Olympian gods to various parts of the Tianshu continent and even farther away.

If Alexander could live as long as Aesop, everything in the future was unknown. Unfortunately, history did not give him such a chance. Shortly after he returned to Barron City, a small mosquito bit the emperor who was intimidating the continent. He suddenly had a high malaria fever that did not subside for ten days and passed away, and was not yet thirty-three years old.

Alexander's ambitious and short life, and his achievements in any aspect surpassed his father Philip II, and were only one less than that, and this was the most deadly. He did not cultivate a suitable heir for himself like Philip II trained him, but this cannot be blamed for Alexander, who died too young and his children were underage.

As soon as Alexander died, his generals fought for power. The great empire was soon divided into three parts. The Heaton Peninsula, which was ruled by Macedonia, became the Kingdom of Macedonia, and the Kingdom of West Asia was established in the area of ​​the former Barron Kingdom of Tianshu. When Alexander was alive, he inherited the crown and scepter of Pharaoh of Eju. After his death, his general Pharaoh followed the throne of Pharaoh, and still regarded Améng as the main god, founded the Ptolemaic dynasty of Eju. History seemed to have returned to - Piaotianyi.

The Olympus gods and the angels of the kingdom of heaven did not find clues to Ah Méng's reentry. They have been silently paying attention to all possible clues, but they have never discovered anything. Ah Méng is like disappearing in the vast world without a trace.

Three hundred years have passed, and the gods and angels still have no news about Ah Méng on earth.

One morning, a team of Luoluo came from the horizon at the end of the continuous sand dunes, and the sun reflected on the gravel in front of him. This was a caravan, leaving Eju to Barron, and they needed to find a place to hide from the scorching sun at noon. There was a huge ruin between the dunes in front, and half of the dome remained at the top of the towering column. It was the remains of a temple, but the altar had been flooded with sand, and the magnificent statue of Améng was lying among the dunes.

More than 300 years ago, it was once the territory of the Cape City-state of the Eju Empire. Dick and his son became the lords of the Cape City-state. It was in this area that the Uludong Legion led by Gilgamesh once fought with the Eju Army led by Ah Méng. This place was originally an oasis on the edge of the Syrian desert and the border of the cape, and people built a magnificent temple.

With the change of climate, the oasis gradually became desertified, leaving only a spring at the foot of the hill beside the temple, which was a place for caravans to rest. The small hill and the ruins of the temple beside the mountains were just a resting place to block the scorching sun. Although it was not very comfortable, it was better than having no nose.

The stone pillar carved with the divine text became a pile of stakes for people to tie horses to Luoluo, and the feces of animals fell on the remnants of the carved steps. People sat on the sand and rested on the lying statue of Ah Méng, and the huge statue of the falling god just happened to block the sun.

This temple has stood for hundreds of years, and it has been fifty years since it was abandoned to this day. The statue of the god lies on the sand dunes, the falling gravel is trampled by mules and horses, and the ruins of the temple have become temporary camps for caravans to rest, indicating that the people here no longer believe in this god and have completely forgotten all his glory and sacredness.

What happened that would make the Temple of Ah Méng become what it is today?

After Alexander's death, his generals divided the great empire and established three countries: Macedonia, West Asia and Eju. Alexander's general Ptolemy wore the crown of the pharaoh and established the Ptolemy dynasty in Eju, which was the longest-lasting of these three kingdoms.

Shortly after Alexander's death, another country gradually rose in the northwest of the Macedonian Empire, named the Republic of Maro. In the eyes of the people of Heaton's city-states, this place was originally an uncivilized wilderness. However, under the guidance of the gods, many wise men came here. The Maro people inherited the civilization and knowledge of the Heatons and were learners and imitators.

The various systems of the Maro Republic generally followed the original city-states of Heaton. They were originally subordinate to the tribes of the Heaton League, and gradually became stronger and established an independent country. They also believed in the gods of Olympus. Due to their different languages, Zeus was called Jupiter here, Hera was called Juno, and Aphrodite, who was invaded into the cycle of reincarnation by Arméng, was called Venus here.

The Maro Republic rose with the spread of the Heaton civilization, the expansion of the Macedonian Empire, and the integration of civilizations from all over the Tianshu continent. At that time, Alexander was leading troops to fight westward, and his main energy was focused on Boz and the battlefield in the Indian capital. Feng did not notice that this small Maro Republic was quietly growing.

Until two hundred years ago, the Kingdom of Macedonia was destroyed by the Republic of Maro.

A hundred years ago, another magnificent ruler appeared in the Republic of Maro, the chief high priest, the chief justice, the lifelong dictator, and the commander-in-chief of each legion. His name was Kaisai.

Kai withdrew from a provincial governor and the commander of the legion, and formed an alliance with the giants of two other major forces in the country, becoming the consul of the Maro Republic, and eventually took over the power.

After Kai withdrew power, the Maro Republic not only annexed the entire Heaton Peninsula, but also opened up a larger territory to the northwest. Kai Se and led a large army to advance eastward, basically occupying the territory of the original Boz Empire, and pursued the enemy southward and came to Eju.

At that time, Eju was in a civil strife over the throne. Queen Cleopatra sneaked into the city of Alexandria where Kaise was located, and ordered people to wrap themselves with a blanket, and sent them to the room where Kaise was resting... and became Kaise's lover.

Keish helped Cleopatra defeat his political enemies and became the queen who ruled the entire Eju, and Eju also became a vassal state of the Maro Republic. At this point, Keish's achievements have surpassed Alexander, and the territory of the Maro Republic has completely surpassed the original Macedonian Empire, and even extended to the west and northward to a wider extent.

Aju, who believed in the god Ahméng, became the last remaining kingdom on this continent.

Unfortunately, Queen Cleopatra did not retain the national destiny of Eju for longer. A few years later, Kaise was assassinated in the Senate of Maro City. Cleopatra became the lover of Anthony, the general of Kaise, and declared that the child she gave birth to with Kaise was "son of Améng" and the heir of the Kingdom of Eju.

Since Alexander, many people in history have called themselves the son of Améng, and the last "son of Améng" was the son of Queen Cleopatra and Kaise.

But the good times did not last long. Anthony was defeated by Kai's adopted son Octavian and committed suicide. Cleopatra was also captured by Marro's army. The queen tried to repeat the same trick and continued to do it, but failed to do it. Octavian wanted to bring Cleopatra back to Marro as a prisoner of war and paraded in the streets. The queen also committed suicide after hearing the news.

The Ptolemy dynasty, which lasted for nearly three hundred years, was finally destroyed, and the Republic of Maro annexed Eju and made it a province in its territory.

Octavian abolished the republic and proclaimed himself emperor, and the emperor was called Augustus, and the Maro Republic became the Maro Empire. This incident happened fifty years ago.

The Macedonian Empire established by Alexander completely disappeared and was submerged in the dust and gravel of history. On the Tianshu Continent was an unprecedented Maro Empire. The Maro people promoted their rule and belief in various provinces and believed in the Olympus gods.
