Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The winter ice and snow blow across the Central Asian grasslands, and the cold air hovers over the Caspian Sea. It continues southward and encounters the stubborn obstruction of the Persian Plateau. Hidden in Mesopotamia in the southwest of the Persian Plateau, the beautiful Mesopotamia is still warm and humid.  The climate at low latitudes has both advantages and disadvantages. At least in winter, you don't have to worry about freezing to death if you only wear a linen gown.  +¡ô A grand banquet is being held in the palace of Ctesiphon. The protagonist of the banquet is the old emperor Mithridates I of the Parthian Empire. As the host, he welcomes a mysterious guest, the emperor Demetrius of the Seleucid Empire.  II.  Zhang Qian stood by the fountain pool and looked at the reflection in the pool. He had a neatly trimmed beard and curly hair. He was wearing a crimson robe and cloak to protect his figure. He used makeup to change his appearance to look more like a Patti.  His demi-human temperament, if not for being not too tall, would be that of a Parthian tall, rich and handsome man.  "Dear guest, please wait a moment. There is a lady over there who wants to mention your name." "Huh?" Zhang Qian subconsciously looked in the direction. A young woman with brown hair and brown eyes smiled and nodded to him.  Most of the women beside her looked pity. Zhang Qian took a few steps back speechlessly and remembered the customs and habits of the Parthians. The thick-lined Parthians were only partially integrated into the ancient Greeks, but the love between men and women was still the same.  Maintain the customs of tribal times.  Like men, Parthian women can boldly ask the person they like when meeting them in any public social situation. The bold and aggressive Parthian woman is born to be a powerful warrior. In the war of the Seleucid Empire,  The Parthians once sent women to serve as scouts to detect the enemy's situation, and when the main force was fighting, they also rode with the men to charge.  The special environment created many privileges for Parthian women.  As the times changed, brave Parthian women did not have to stand up in times of crisis. Most of the time, the Parthian Empire fought with a crushing attitude.  If there are a few hard-to-gnaw bones, they simply stop or go around. The Parthians are not stupid and arrogant guys.  Even if their talents are very poor, all skills need to be learned through teaching.  However, the women of Parthia are very powerful. Zhang Qian has never seen that there are no thieves in the streets and alleys of Ctesiphon. This group of city rats were not allowed to come out after being driven there, which shows that these pink overlords are not what they seem.  Bullying someone, such a simple thing can be done in minutes.  "Sir, I'm XiI hope I can get to know you." Zhang Qian stepped back half a step and shook his head with a smile: "I'm sorry, I have an exam soon, please leave it to me then." "He is my man. You  Go away!" Tasparamia walked in and scared people to death with just one word. If you look closely, she was dressed in a fashionable and tasteful way. Don't say any strange words to cause unnecessary conflicts.  All girls are beautiful women. Now it seems that they are really bad-mouthed. Sometimes men can¡¯t stand it and will curse a few words, but don¡¯t do anything very bad.  The man was very angry: "Do you know who my father is?" "I don't care who your father is? Is your father a prince or a prince?" He chose to calmly announce the top of his father's list. You tell my father and  Not great. I was not convinced. Zhang Qian was also very depressed: "Will you help us first?"  "    "I have no idea.  " Taspalamia lives very hard, and her disguise does not prevent her from projecting deep hatred. The direction she is looking at is the old emperor Mithridates I. " Huh?  " The old emperor looked at him strangely: "Who is that?  " "The big businessman in Kangju has a lot of pure snow salt in his hands.  It seems that he has connections with that empire in the east.  " "You mean the Huns?  Mithridates I was deep in thought. He had long heard the legend of a powerful Hun empire in the east. It was said that the Shanks of that empire were the most terrifying cavalry empire in the world. The Assyrians and Persians who died were far inferior to him.  The old emperor absolutely did not believe in this evil. He firmly believed that the Parthian Empire he led was the cornerstone of steppe civilization. As the direct successor of the emperor, it was a matter of great importance whether he could inherit the empire. As a result, the skills of his grandson were very different from those of his son.  Big. Ore is the least valuable thing in an area rich in resources, and food has a higher priority than tools and weapons. ¡°Your Majesty, your guests have arrived.  " Mithridates I smiled and put away his thoughts. Demetrius II scolded and insulted with a smile. What was surprising was that it made people lie down for a second. "The emperor said:  The people who left were very caring and loving, and it was very interesting when the emperor decided to put his mind to it.  "The old emperor said: "Dmitry II!  Let¡¯s talk about ideals!  you?The disintegration of Seleucus is imminent, so why not throw yourself into the arms of me, Parthia? I believe you will get what you want.  " "I want to be free, can you help me?  ¡± I believe many people are aware of the second-hand market in Dmitry City II. The one tested was questioned and not very accurate. It took too much time to consider and the information obtained by Luliang was very sloppy. Dmitry II rolled his eyes and reluctantly nodded.  The head showed that he knew that the reason why he was so cold was because he forcibly extinguished the fire in the tent. After he was captured, he went crazy and yelled to vent his dissatisfaction. Sometimes he was as depressed as a middle-aged man who had accomplished nothing.  , anger, chagrin, and resentment intertwined together, he is the young emperor of Seleucid.  He is just a person in name only, and does not have an inch of land in Mesopotamia. The original capital of Seleucia was changed to Ctesiphon, and he has no last thoughts. ¡°Damn old worry, you will die.  "The old emperor laughed loudly: "Dmitri, you are such a rotten boy, don't you still understand your situation?  Remember your failure is military not political.  " "You will regret it sooner or later. I am younger, stronger and more capable than you. Look how powerful you are!"  " "I'm waiting to see how you perform.  ¡± The news of Demetrius II¡¯s capture was like a gust of wind blowing into Ctesiphon. The war on the Western Front gradually went in a normal direction. In the past, no one would remember what your zodiac sign was before. The emperor of an empire was defeated.  No matter how brave he was before, he could not hide his identity as an executioner. After a long wait, Zhang Qian got a chance to face the old emperor. "Kang Juren?  Mithridates I changed into Kangju language: "Why did you come to me?"  Just to make money?  " "We want to go to the west and go around the Seleucids to the barbarian world in the northwest.  Mithridates I said absurdly: "You must be crazy. The Germanic barbarians are the most terrifying warriors. You will definitely die if you go there."  " "We only look at it and won't go too deep into the territory.  " Zhang Qian took the trouble to explain his destination, trying to avoid talking about going to Rome from his own mouth. The relationship between Parthia and Rome is not good, and they will be enemies in the future. "For the sake of gold coins, I will not  Take care of your destination. If you have any business, please contact my servant directly. He will tell you how to find me as soon as possible.  "The old emperor got up and left. "Zhang Qian was a little disappointed. He originally wanted to find an eloquent German as a guide, but it turned out that there was nothing so good in this era. It seemed that the Parthians had no interest in establishing an establishment with the northern barbarians.  Contact. Tasparamiya comforted: "Sir, please don't be too sad. Our unqualified skills will not affect our belief in living.  " "Thank you, you look very good today.  " Suddenly, Tasparamia blushed and lowered her head shyly: "Sir, I like you.  "    "ah?  Youyou know I will leave and you still like me?  " "Yes, I have always liked you. Without your risking your life to save me, my child would have died long ago.  "Tasparamia said slowly. Zhang Qian did not dare to respond. He lowered his head and walked slowly back to the dilapidated but familiar alley. In recent months, the security of Ctesiphon, the capital of Parthia, has improved. At least it will not be as bad as  The advantages of digging up piles of dead bodies every morning were reflected in many aspects. The food supply was much more abundant than before. The Parthian Emperor Mithridates I defeated and captured the Seleucid Emperor Demetrius on the battlefield.  II, relied on his strong hard power to defeat the Seleucid army and captured the emperor alive and put him under house arrest. The Seleucids also fell into a war, and the usurper established the Kingdom of Triphon. The deteriorating situation made Seleucids.  To make matters worse, Demetrius II¡¯s rule in the country was not popular among the people. He was a puppet supported by the Ptolemaic Empire. His defeat and capture did not arouse the high attention of his subjects. In this world, it is really a grandma who doesn¡¯t care for his uncle.  Love, the only one who really wanted him to come back was his brother Antiochus VII. Although Demetrius II was not very capable, the one who benefited most from the Diadochi War was that he was too tough, including Pablo.  Mithridates I, the old emperor of Thia, is also willing to contact the useless little puppet. Parthia's foreign war has come to an end, and more efforts are devoted to consulting the overweight rebel forces, the remnants of the Persian Empire.  The remnants of the Alexander era were all in the country. When these people saw that something was wrong, they all stopped and it was not easy to find someone. Cao Shi always suspected that Tasparamia was a descendant of the Seleucid nobles.nbsp; Zhang Qian was embarrassed to hear her true thoughts. Women in this era are very unrestrained. He could not agree or refuse rashly. He carefully considered and weighed it before saying: "Dear Tasparamia, give it to me.  Can you give me some time? I still need to think about the answer to you. " "I won't embarrass you. Please be careful not to hurt yourself. My brother may send a letter to guide you to Seleucus. "  "Antioch? It belongs to the usurper Tryphon." "No, we are going to Issus." Zhang Qian was stunned. This was not the first time he heard the name of Issus. Two hundred years ago, Alexander the Great relied on Issus.  Darius III was defeated in the Battle of Sri Lanka, and the Achaemenid dynasty was defeated and soon perished.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature.
