Chapter 208 This is Sparta
And Liu Xiong took everyone to the countryside in the north of Istanbul. Under the guidance of the tour guide, he really found some remnants of the ancient Thracians.

Thrace has a large population, reaching millions in BC, but it has never been able to form a unified Thrace country.

Although the small tribal countries of Thrace were clearly arranged by the Romans, they disappeared in the long river of history.

But after all, it is a big family with a population of millions, and there are many cultural traces left over from thousands of years.

The domineering Thracian machete!

Legend has it that Spartacus was captured by the Romans.

A village claiming to be of Thracian descent...

And, the family heirloom of the Thracian descendant village - a complete set of Thracian chief's unrestrained battle skirt!
The battle skirt is just an armor covering and protecting the lower body.

So why call it a "complete set"?

because……

This is Thrace!

Nothing on the top, a battle skirt on the bottom, not even a battle skirt.

A Thracian is a naked man with a scythe!
After gaining an in-depth understanding of Thracian culture, seeing Thracian cultural relics, and appreciating the sacrificial ceremonies of Thracian descendants, everyone finally understood why Liu Xiong gave Thrace Such arms are set.

In the Roman era, cavalry were not the main force on the battlefield because they did not have stirrups.

And it was Rome's powerful heavy infantry that helped Rome conquer the world.

A sword, a shield, and a suit of armor, this is the most elite heavy infantry of this era.

And even the poor and small country of Xianyu, even the most trashy Uncle Dongfang in the game, has a gun and a shield.

It can be said that shields are the standard equipment for infantry in this era.

But according to Liu Xiong's setting for "Roman Total War", the Thrace infantry only has a scythe!

No shields!

Thrace's top infantry - what kind of arms is the Thracian nobleman?

Holding a terrible scythe, it has super high attack power and super high defense breaking ability. It has no armor or shield on its naked body.

The morale is super high, almost unshakable, life and death are bearish, and if you don't accept it, do it!
Although the lack of armor and shields caused the Thracian nobles to be very afraid of long-range damage.

But as long as it is done properly, the Thracian nobles can even bring down the Roman Guards directly in one wave!

Sitting on the bumpy car, Feimeng and the others began to return to the city.

Liu Xiong didn't get motion sickness, and he still said to everyone with great interest: "In our game "Roman Total War", the Thracian country is also a small country that makes soy sauce."

"Although it is a small country, Thrace is a small country with its own characteristics."

"The unique sickle naked male unit system is destined to be a country favored by some fanatical offensive enthusiasts."

"Everyone knows that one of the best features of "Roman Total War" is the rich and colorful national arms system."

"Our Rome, Carthage, Seleucid, and Macedonia are interesting."

"Our Britain, Germany, Scythia, Armenia are equally interesting."

"So even if it is a small country, we must do our best to do well."

Ye Shen said very understandingly: "Yeah, I also think it would be more interesting to choose a small country with unique characteristics."

After leaving Istanbul, everyone followed the railway to Greece and visited the ruins of many ancient Greek city-states.

Such as the famous Athens, such as Thebes, the gay holy city...

And the last stop is Sparta.

As a Greek city-state with the same name as Athens, the story of Sparta is needless to say.

This powerful military city-state was once the overlord of the Greek city-states!

But after coming to Sparta, Kobayashi was a little confused.

"The ruins of Athens, Thebes, and Epirus we visited before all have tall city walls."

"How did you come to the most famous Sparta, but you didn't even see the ancient city walls?"

"The tour guide also told us that Sparta is the best-preserved ancient city, what a pit!"

"Or are the Spartans too barbaric to build walls?"

Liu Xiong couldn't help laughing.

"Little Lin, you are wrong to blame Sparta."

"It's true that Sparta is relatively barbaric, but no matter what, Sparta is also the overlord of ancient Greece. How can it be impossible to repair the city wall!"

Xiao Lin thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's true, probably because the ancient city wall has not been preserved."

Liu Xiong shook his head and began to popularize science with Kobayashi.

"It's not a matter of preservation without walls."

"Then why?"

Liu Xiong smiled coldly.

"because……"

"This is Sparta!"

After a roar, the other tourists around did not cast cold eyes on the roaring Liu Xiong.

Because, in fact, there are roars here one after another.

This is Sparta!

This line is widely circulated, and tourists from other countries are also yelling.

After roaring, Liu Xiong said to Xiao Lin: "Because the Spartans don't need city walls, the chest of a Spartan man is the city wall of Sparta!"

This sentence is the rhetoric of the Spartans when Sparta was strong.

Kobayashi couldn't help admiring after hearing this.

"Awesome, powerful, domineering sideways."

Liu Xiong smiled and said, "In the beginning, the chests of Spartan men did become the walls of Sparta."

"Sparta has always been bullying others, and Sparta really doesn't need city walls."

"However, since Sparta was taught to be a man by the Gay Holy Order in Thebes, Sparta has been getting worse day by day."

"Under the decline of the country, in order to resist foreign enemies, and to prevent the backlash of Helotus slaves, Sparta still built a city wall, and it was a tall city wall!"

Xiaolin became curious and asked: "Since the tall city wall has been built, why can't we see any shadows now?"

Liu Xiong chuckled: "That's because of the Romans."

"After defeating Macedonia, Rome entered Greece. At the beginning, it was the ally and protector of the Greek city-states."

"Later, Greece was directly turned into a province of Rome."

"In the face of Rome, which has entered the Peloponnese peninsula strongly, the city-states of Greece can only surrender one after another."

"They all became allies of the Romans, and this is called 'accepting the friendship of the Romans.'"

"Of course, if you don't accept the friendship of the Romans, then you have to accept the stick of the Romans."

Xiao Lin interjected, "Isn't this Roman too domineering?"

Liu Xiong nodded.

"Yes, that's how people hang up."

"In fact, it's not just Rome. The Han Dynasty, which has stood side by side with Rome for a long time, is also very concerned about small countries and small tribes."

"Any governor of the frontier dares to rub against the Huns, making the Huns and other barbarians respect and hate him at the same time."
