I am the son of the traveler

Chapter 71 Ipaminondas

Antigonus did not tell the result of the Battle of Mantinea. He just patted the shoulder of this famous general who narrowly escaped death because of the system, leaving the other party confused.At the same time, Antigonus was also full of doubts. Epaminondas was born in 362 BC and died in 420 BC at the age of 58. He should have been an old man over fifty years old now. , but why does the person in front of me still look like a middle-aged man? Could it be that the system can make people younger when they travel through time?
Thinking of this, he suddenly asked without beginning or end: "General Ipaminoda, how old are you this year?"

"Ah?" Ipaminoda was caught off guard by the question, he hesitated for a moment before replying, "I am 38 years old, Your Majesty."

38?

Antico frowned slightly, this directly made him 20 years younger, the system is really not simple!
Shaking his head, Antico didn't continue to think about this question, ordered someone to pass a glass full of wine to Ipaminoda, and asked someone to fill it up for himself, and then said: "General Ipaminoda, I Let me toast you first."

Hearing this, Ipaminondas also raised his glass and touched Antigon's glass lightly, and then the two drank the wine in the glass together. After swallowing the wine, Antigon continued: "Tomorrow You go to the Palazzo Vecina to report to me, I need talents like you."

"Understood." Ipaminondas agreed straightforwardly. In his subconscious mind, he had already been influenced by the system, and he came here to serve Antigonus, so he didn't have any resistance to it.

Nodding his head, Antigonus chatted with them a few more words, and then found an excuse to go back to the Vagina Palace.

Silent all night.

The next day, Ipaminondas came to the Vigina Palace to meet Antigonus as scheduled, but at this time Antigonus was still eating his lunch, which was quite rich, including two pieces of white bread, one piece of lamb chop, one Grilled fish with a few olives and a glass of wine with water.Although this meal was very rich for ordinary Greeks, in the eyes of Antigonus, who was used to eating Chinese food, it was just that. To be honest, he still felt that rice was more comfortable to eat.

Seeing that Epaminondas had arrived as promised, Antigonus asked someone to arrange a chair for him and asked, "Have you had lunch?"

"We don't eat at noon, Your Majesty." Ipaminonda said with a strange expression.Only then did Antigonus remember that the Greeks only ate breakfast and dinner a day, and they never ate at noon. The residents of Pella City should have been the same as them, but under the influence of the former king Philip, they also From two meals a day to three meals a day.

Thinking of this, Antigonus smiled and stopped talking. He swept away all the food on the plate as quickly as possible, then took the wine glass and drank the wine in one gulp, mixing it in his mouth. After swallowing all the food in it, he burped with satisfaction and wiped away the stains around his mouth with the tissue on the side.

"General Ipaminondas, I kept you waiting." Antigonus said politely to the consul of Thebes in front of him, and then ordered someone to remove the plate from the table. After the plate was taken away, he Then he continued: "I asked you to come to the Vigina Palace today because of the resettlement of immigrants from Thebes."

"In the past few days in Pella City, you should have heard about the deeds of me leading the army to conquer the Mariki Plain. After my field survey, the plain has fertile soil and rich resources, which is very suitable for settlement, so I decided to conduct a survey there. emigrate, and place it under the true rule of the Macedonian Kingdom."

"You want Thebes to immigrate there and settle there?" Ipaminondas was so smart, he immediately understood what Antigonus meant, and asked.

"Yes." Antigonus nodded and said, "Six thousand Theban immigrants will go there to settle and build a city. I hope you can assist me in the process."

"There is no problem, Your Majesty. Since I am the consul of Thebes, I am obliged to be responsible for all the affairs of those Thebes immigrants, even if this is not Europa anymore."

"Very good." Antigono was very satisfied with Ipaminondas's answer. He first praised the other party, and then continued: "You can bring the materials needed to build the city in the Mariki Plain, and we will Satisfy you as much as possible.”

"clear."

Antigonus stood up from his seat, suddenly thought of another thing, and continued: "After the city of Thebes is completed, you will no longer be an independent city-state and must accept the rule of the Kingdom of Macedonia. I hope You can be mentally prepared."

"I understand." Ipaminondas still agreed straightforwardly, which surprised Antigonus, but he didn't know that these Thebes who came here were influenced by the system and advocated freedom The spirit of democracy has been wiped out, so it is easy to accept Macedonian dictatorship.

Since Ipaminondas was so knowledgeable, there was no need for Antigonus to continue talking nonsense with him. The two discussed some other matters, and Antigonus asked to visit the Holy Army of Thebes.He is really curious about this legendary gay legion. When imagining this legion, he will always accidentally substitute the image of King Billy or the Bulgarian demon king, which makes him "dry mouth" .

Seeing that Antigonus offered to visit, Ipaminondas couldn't refuse, so he agreed without hesitation, because in ancient Greece, love between men was called "true love", while love between women was called "true love". It is just a tool for reproduction, reproduction and housework. True love only exists between men and men. Even the famous philosopher Plato agrees with this idea, which shows what the social atmosphere at that time was like.In the city of Thebes, adult men and teenagers could live together in an almost open marriage relationship, and the homosexual atmosphere was stronger than in other places in Greece, so here was the stage for the establishment of the Holy Army of Thebes.

Of course, Antigonus is dismissive of the weird idea of ​​the Greeks (of course the author himself thinks so), he will not go to fencing with other men, and go with the fragrant and soft young lady hehehe Isn't he fragrant?

Cough, far away.

At the request of Antigonus, Ipaminondas took him out of the Vigina Palace and walked to the military camp in the city. After arriving here, the station of the Holy Army of Thebes was the royal palace in Pella. The military camp here is fully equipped. Although the Macedonians had doubts about the army that followed the immigrants for the first time, they still agreed to the army's entry.

　It will be on the shelves on Friday. I hope everyone will support the first order then, and there will be more updates~
