- The city of Ur is in the far northeast of Lagash, in the east of the Baghdad area where Yuzai wants to build Tianfang City.
Go up the Tigris River, and continue to move northeast along the river when you are about to reach Baghdad, and you can arrive in about five hundred miles.
For the Tigris River in this period, the main trunk of the river would pass through the city of Ur instead of Baghdad, and there were only tributaries in the Baghdad area.
In the past, a glorious dynasty stood here, but now it is history.
The city-state was in decline. The Akkadians occupied it back then. Later, the Akkadians were driven away by the Kuti. After two ravages by the nomads and the mountain peoples, the city of Ur faced this attack every time. storm.
And the first one was beaten to lie down.
?Looking at the mountains in the east, the first large-scale city-state on the west of the great river, on the undefended Mesopotamian plain, the city of Ur is destined to become a battleground for military strategists with a tragic ending.
Now the king here is still a Kuti, and the king is called Tai Lijia.
The mountain peoples still oppressed the Sumerians. The Sumerians in the Ur city-state could only engage in lowly grazing or some unskilled handicraft work, such as making fishing nets and selling knots.
Herding is a good job in Sumer, but at this time, the territory ruled by the mountain people is a low-level job.
The remnants of Akkad are in the west, and the remnants of the Kuti are in the north and east. The Akkadians have declined, and the Kuti are not much better. At this time, news spread to the city of Ur.
In the southwest direction, the king of Uruk, Psurelli, has declared war on the Kuti people, announcing that the Northern Expedition will be launched soon!
The general who commanded the soldiers was a fisherman, named Utu Hegar, and it is said that his military achievements are very high!
The Sumerians in the city of Ur looked forward to the king's coming north.
Wang Shibei set the Central Plains Day, and the family sacrifices were never forgotten to tell Nai Weng.
When will Master Wang leave?
When will Master Wang hang and beat Kuti Manzi?
Master Wang still has a few companies
So, after waiting for a long time, although Uruk declared war, no soldiers came to attack the city of Ur.
Tailijia, the king of the Kuti people, was very angry at the beginning, and threatened to give the Sumerians a little color!
Then, until now.
People are numb.
The straight-minded mountain people can't understand the Sumerian ppt tactics at all
Fighting and fighting (just training the army).
The city-state is in the era of self-government, I declare war on you but I will not fight you, you are tense for one day, relaxed for three days, and numb for five days, maybe I will descend from heaven, I can be a thief for thousands of miles, but you cannot defend against robbers for a thousand days .
Because the rear of Uruk is supported by successive independent and uprising Sumerian city-states, including the most powerful city of Lagash, and beside Kuti, there is only A Kade people.
It wasn't just the drowsy Kuti who were paralyzed.
There are also Sumerians who live in the city of Ur and cannot leave.
Who can withstand thunder without rain?
But fortunately, another news came.
"It is said that on the other side of the Tigris River, in the land of Baghdad, a new city is about to be built!"
"The builders claim to be from the far east and have the support of Lagash!"
The news spread all over the sky, and the eyes of the Sumerians brightened. They felt that it was time to run away on a large scale and start a new life. It didn't matter who built this city, what mattered was the support of Lagash.
Now Lagash is the spiritual pillar of all Sumerians.
The just shepherd, Gudea the Great, will surely shelter the fleeing Sumerians.
"Now that city seems to be recruiting workers and needs a lot of manpower"
The Sumerians spread the news one after another when they were making handicrafts, but soon many soldiers rushed out of the Kuti Palace. The soldiers held golden brass scimitars and wore goat hair cloaks Others, armed with maces and stone axes, began to suppress Sumerian speech in the streets.
"You can't live without the city of Ur. If anyone dares to leave the city of Ur, all your property, even your lives, will be threatened!"
"You can only work in the city of Ur, and it is absolutely impossible to work in other city-states!"
"The king has ordered that soon we will attack the city that has not yet been built. At that time, their laborers will become slaves! And you will not?? No matter how delusional you can escape! "
The soldier was shouting, his eyes were staring, his forehead was stretched with blue veins, and his roar was like a lion with a broken vocal cord.
In the city of Ur, the Kuti people accounted for the majority, and there were also some merchants from Dilmun and Elamites. They had no direct interest in the Kuti people, so they got settled or traded, while the number of Sumerians Although they are huge, most of them have been signed with work clay tablets like a contract of sale, and most of their wealth and life are also held in the hands of the Kuti people.
There are only a small number of Sumerian free people in the city of Ur.
Of course, in addition to these types of people, there are also some small hunting tribes who settled here, and the Kuti only oppressed the Akkadians and Sumerians, which led to the incompatibility of Akkad. Barbarians and Sumerians were forced to stand in a united front.
Yesterday's enemy is today's friend.
One of these small hunting tribes is called the "Semites".
"Have you heard that on the other side of the river in the west, a big city is going to be built, called Tianfang."
In front of a large mud-brick house, an excited young man pushed open the door, and inside the door was a middle-aged man who seemed to have just returned, and the wool on his body was dirty.
That was the young man's uncle, and the young man couldn't wait to tell him that he might be able to go to that city to find a way out.
"Abram! Listen to me! I heard that the new city is recruiting people. It is a city-state supported by Lagash, but the owner of the city-state is not the Sumerians, but from the far east. I have never heard of it. across that land, and the great poet Enhaduana is in that city!"
"I haven't heard more news. The Sumerians who spread the news were suppressed by the Kuti!"
"I heard that the city-state appoints jobs based on skills, not race and origin!"
The young man seemed to be only eighteen or nineteen years old, and he was in high spirits, while the middle-aged man inside had a vicissitudes of face: "What new city, Lot, why didn't you graze the herd properly, and ran back by yourself?"
The young man pointed to the sky: "The sun has already set, and my work is done! That's why I came back!"
"Abram! Listen to me, I can find a decent job myself!"
Abram was very unhappy: "We already have decent jobs in the city of Ur, so we don't have to move out"
"Decent work?!"
The young man was also unhappy: "After you smashed the clay statue of his grandfather, you spread your ideas everywhere, but no one will accept your ideas, so that now you, as the patriarch of the Semites, can only Helping people move mud bricks on the construction site, is this your decent job?"
"You neither do your grandfather's work nor allow me to do it! I'm not your son!"
"Grandfather Terah is a priest of the moon god, and his statues can be sold for a high price, but you smashed his statues, saying that those gods will not bring protection!"
Abram was very upset, and said angrily: "That would not bring shelter! What kind of soul can things made of clay have! Besides, the gods have long abandoned this place, this is the land abandoned by the gods!"
"You are not my son, that's why I discipline you! Because your father is my brother!"
"It is better to create new gods than to find the gods of the past. I heard that Lagash in the south has already succeeded. The appearance of the great ones is the turning point of the dark age! My thoughts must be like a torch, shining light in this dark world!"
