    In the Battle of Thermopylae, 300 Spartan men in red pants faced 500,000 Persian troops. In the end, Thermopylae fell. King Leonidas of Sparta and 300 warriors died in the battle, while nearly 20,000 Persian troops were killed.  However, romantic historical storytellers generally will not tell you that first of all, the terrain of Thermopylae is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Secondly, the 300 people in Sparta are only the number of Spartan Royal Guards. At the same time, there are Spartan slave soldiers and soldiers stationed at Thermopylae.  Thousands of friendly city-state warriors from the entire peninsula, totaling 7,000 people; although Persia claims to have an army of 200,000 to 500,000 people, in fact these people come from 45 countries and more than 100 ethnic groups!  The reason why there are such inaccurate figures of 200,000 to 500,000 is because it is difficult to estimate how many auxiliary soldiers accounted for it. A reliable number is no less than 300,000.  The actual battle losses do not seem to be as many as 20,000 "History is just a little girl who can be dressed up by anyone." Words that are symmetrical to this "famous saying" appeared in the ancient world - when the goddess Dibella became a law  After the God of Law - the law has become a bitch that you can get into if you have money.  (Disclaimer: The above storyline does not represent the author's own views, nor does it have anything to do with allegory/innuendo/ridicule/appropriation of ancient times and modern times.) Then the total strength of Helgen Town is 1,500 (800 Falkreath City Guards +  Four hundred Rift Valley City urban management brigade + forty-six knights + forty-two comrades + warriors among believers), against 20,000 coalition forces (twelve thousand regular troops + seven hundred Thalmor elves + more than seven thousand various factions)  City Guards), the gap in strength seems to be quite huge, and it cannot be made up by a few legends - even if the Battle of Thermopylae can be replicated, the problem is that Sparta lost the Battle of Thermopylae In a situation where the winner is  King, in an era when the loser is the scapegoat, if you don¡¯t win, you will blame him.  The coalition forces are maintaining low-intensity attacks every day, retreating after a few people die, and both sides continue to lose blood However, this kind of war of attrition is obviously detrimental to the side with fewer people.  But facing the opponent's strict battle formation, it is even more impossible to attack.  Because the fighting front was too narrow, Falkreath needed a sharper knife to tear apart the deep coalition array.  Although the Heavy Knights are powerful, they can only serve as a hammer.  Being attacked by heavily armored cavalry will cause chaos. This is the effect that knights can only achieve by recruiting troops from peasants.  Opposite him was a sturdy Nord man nearly two meters tall, a regular heavy infantryman armed to the teeth with a double-sided giant axe.  Nords are simple-minded, but even if they dare to swing an ax in the face of a dragon, they have never been afraid of anyone except their wives!  A knight charging head-on is seeking death.  Moreover, the terrain near Helgen Town is narrow and the space for strategic maneuvering is limited. Even if you want to sneak around and attack the coalition's logistics, you can see through it at a glance - there is really no strategic cover in this area.  The current situation is that the war is likely to become a protracted battle for Helgen, and no one can hope for a quick victory.  In the long run, Falkreath will run out of potential and eventually fail miserably.  Lu Yuan once proposed to simply abandon Helgen and put the coalition forces on a flat plateau to fight.  Although this loss is somewhat heavy, victory can be expected.  There is plenty of space in the open fields behind Helgen for him to display his machinations Unfortunately, his suggestion was unanimously opposed by others. The construction of Helgen town is not easy. There is no such well-built town in the entire sky. No.  Never give up until you have to.  "Lao Lu is a gangster proletarian, and he doesn't feel bad if he smashes anyone's house; but these people here are different. The small one owns a vigilant station, and the big one is already the master of a city and a place. It feels bad if the pots and jars are smashed.  "Are you going to stop caring about your followers?" The siege of the city is still going on.  The coalition forces still maintained the tactics of continuous bloodletting, and Falkreath occasionally made sneak attacks with cavalry and robbed food routes. The two sides went back and forth, and the fight was endless.  But what makes people a little surprised is that Hircine, who has always been considered by everyone to be "definitely bound to jump out and cause trouble", is surprisingly quiet this time!  Apart from occasionally boosting morale in the faith passage, he hardly made any unnecessary actions.  Of course, Hircine still responded to requests for divine spells from the expanding priest team, which effectively reduced Falkreath's casualty rate.  No one could figure out Hircine's plan, so one day, Akatosh, the dragon of time, who was "walking" in the world of annihilation, "accidentally met" Hircine, who was also "walking", and then he asked the above question  .  "Protest! I was dragged out of bed! Only a lunatic would walk in this place with nothing!" Hircine protested.  "You say I'm crazy?" Long stared, revealing a row of neat dragon teeth two meters long!  " Breast enlargement exercises, one, two, three, four, two, two, three, four I need to exercise more when I wake up in the morning. Walking or something like that is perfect Hi, this beautiful platinum dragon lady I have never met before wants to have a session.  An early morning exercise that is not intense but guarantees a good mood? " "" Alona was silent for ten seconds, realizing that no matter what, sheNo matter how hard you try, no matter how shameless you are, you can't beat the person in front of you You can't even be among the best in the Dawn Group Alona knows all the "highlight moments" of everyone in the Dawn Group - including some who don't even know Lu Yuan  Know the part!  Let¡¯s not talk about Reimu Hakurei. She is simply a replica of Lu Yuan. She is not a daughter but a daughter;  "Mastered the truth of the universe", she has reached the pinnacle; Ding Mumu follows Lu Yuan as the criterion for everything, and has no moral concepts in her heart; and Muxing can declare without changing his face, "I am the Patriarch who does not do serious things."  , This simply makes Alona heartbroken!  ¡°Anne, you must think that apart from being a bit out of character in private, she is a complete model of chivalry in dealing with others?  What a big mistake!  Alona knew a secret about Anne that even Lu Yuan didn¡¯t know - when Lu Yuan went to the world of Harry Potter, Anne chose to travel to Azeroth for adventure.  As a member of the human knights, Anne has experienced a series of historical events such as the invasion of orcs, the destruction of Stormwind City, the Dark Portal, the Scourge of the Undead, and Arthas becoming the new Evil King.  During these great adventures, Anne prevented many tragedies, changed the fate of countless people, and forged a "deep friendship" with the ranger general Sylvanas Windrunner.  When Anne was about to leave the world of Azeroth, she chose to tell Sylvanas everything she knew about the "future history of the world of Azeroth".  The scene at that time was that the Ranger General (who had not become undead) was deeply affected, and almost even the courage to persist was gone.  "Why?! Why is Azeroth so troubled!" Sylvanas believed Annie's future, but she felt that Azeroth was a place abandoned by God!  The creatures living on this land saw hope again and again, but were knocked down into the abyss again and again!  Suffering never ends!  Anne said this at the time, "Because we want to make money, and as long as we can still attract money, this big IP will continue to operate forever That's why people say that until the glass slag dies, Azeroth will never have peace." "Bo!  Li! Scum! Annie, I want to ask you one last thing," Sylvanas smiled as she inserted her swords and shouldered her bow.  "Since you told me all this, it means that you have a solution Can you help me open a portal to that evil organization? I think there is a small problem between me and them to solve." "Of course.  "Anne readily agreed, and Alona who was listening (it turns out you were also involved!) immediately opened a portal to "Irvine, California, United States" for Sylvanas Later, she saw "Encounter in the United States"  "New terrorist attack" Anne from the news also said happily.  "Now, Azeroth should be at peace."  Do you dare to believe such a knight?  The game doesn't play well and you actually point the finger at the "source of evil"!  (Have you felt the anger of the game scum? The glass scum is finished, B Club, you are next!) Big Elona only thought about it like this, and found that the Dawn Group was not the moral offline of the whole universe, they were  Bottom line "Answer my question! Do you really not care about your followers?" "Of course not," Hircine pretended to wipe his sweat, "In fact, I have already placed the key to victory with them.  It hasn¡¯t been discovered yetjust wait and see.¡±
