When Crises listened to Agamemnon's words, he was taken aback. He did not expect such a result.
You should know that although the battle of Troy is fierce on the battlefield, once a captive is taken, as long as someone is willing to pay a ransom, the captive can generally be redeemed.
This time, when Crises came to the Greek camp to redeem his daughter, I felt that it was a sure thing, and I did not expect it to happen.
Most importantly, Crises was a priest, with a special keen sense (or he could not be a priest). He immediately felt the murderous power in Agamemnon's words, and felt the omen of fate, knowing if he Furthermore, the commander of the Greek coalition forces will violate morality and kill himself.
Crises was silent, carefully exiting the Greek camp, and no soldiers or princes around him stopped him.
Crises slowly walked to the coast, looking at the distant sea, raising his hands with tears in his face and praying: "Great Apollo, you are the who rules such a large place, please listen to me Let's appeal! For many years, I cleaned the temple for you, I chose you a sacrifice, I sacrificed it to you, and I pray that you will avenge the Jacobs for me and let them know the power of your golden arrow. "
He prayed loudly, his voice was sad and brave.
Olympus
Apollo was sitting on the golden seat, drinking wine and thinking about his mind. At this moment, the prayer of Crises passed through the barriers of space and reached Apollo's ears.
Apollo listened to his prayers, understood the ins and outs of things, and was angry.
The Greeks were too arrogant. They knew that Cyrus was a priest in his temple, and they did not agree to the request to redeem his daughter. They also humiliated him, which was a provocation against himself.
Apollo decided to teach a good lesson to the arrogant Greeks who do not know the heights and heights, so that they understand that the gods are not blasphemy, and that his priests are not free to shame.
Apollo stood up, left Mount Olympus in anger, carrying a bow and a quiver full of arrows on his shoulders, and soon came over the Greek camp.
Apollo was quietly suspended above the barracks, and no one could find its existence. Looking down at the dense crowd below, he took the bow of God and shot it at the Greek camp.
"call out."
The bow and arrow suddenly disappeared into the barracks, penetrating the animals and soldiers in the camp, but no one felt abnormal.
An arrow was shot by Apollo to all corners of the Greek camp, and the soldiers and animals that hit the arrow did not feel anything.
But not long after, soldiers and cattle in the Greek camp suffered a plague and died in misery.
The accompanying doctors were helpless when they saw the soldiers suffering from the plague. They could only watch the soldiers die in pain.
For a time, there was a gloom in the Greek camp.
Troy City Prince House
Spring is blooming. Pei Ziyun's mansion, according to Greek tradition, is planted with fruit trees and planted grapes. Pei Ziyun has not gone out these days. He stayed in the house with Ononie and Helen, and pointed out how to dig a pond and pile rockery.
Only after they smiled, Gsne came over, and Pei Ziyun stood up slowly: "You are busy meeting, I will come back when I go."
Talking, listening to the report of Gzigne.
"This is Apollo's revenge." After listening to it, Pei Ziyun stopped walking. Although the spring blossoms, it was still cold and faintly covered with a light brown haze.
Apollo's priesthood is difficult to say. Some people say that it includes light, prophecy, music, healing, and even a little confused with the sun in the future, but the initial name is "long shot god"!
When Crises returned from his ashes, he knew that the Greeks were about to face doom, and the gods would not watch their priests be insulted and indifferent.
Sure enough, I have now received news from Gsny that the Greek camp is in plague.
This kind of plague brought down by the gods, ordinary medicine may work at all, it can only be to help the gods, hoping to get its forgiveness.
So when Crises returned with a sad face, Pei Ziyun told him, don't worry, after a while, the Greeks will naturally obey the request.
"Well, Apollo is said to be bright and full of life, but its bow is a plague arrow or a supernatural disease. Is this a life and death?"
Pei Ziyun quickly stepped onto the city wall, looked up, and watched the billowing smoke from the Greek camp in the distance, knowing that the corpse infected with the plague was burning, his face sneered.
The Greeks were arrogant and finally paid the price. I believe that the plague brought by Apollo this time will be able to combat it, but this is just the beginning, and the next good show will continue to be performed.
"Agamemnon dominates the army, and it is easy for people to get used to this order. Therefore, his prestige is getting higher and higher. In the script, the gods used the hand of Achilles to severely hit Xia'a. Kamenon, forced Agamemnon to admit that he was wrong, and please leave Achilles. "
"I will follow this script, but the result is not to make the Greeks painless and itchy, but to have a big bomb." Pei Ziyun asked the standing Guzne: "What's the next step, can you be safe?"
"Prince, you can be safe. All the speakers are indirect, and some even turn a few times."
"Well, tell them, do things well, I won't treat them badly, this time you did a good job, continue to appreciate." Pei Ziyun said lightly.
"Thank you Prince for your reward," Gsne said, and retreated.
The pawns inserted in the Greek coalition by Gznean this time played an important role. They just spread some rumors along the way, and they can open the conflict between the heroes and commanders of the Greek coalition who are not in harmony with each other.
At this time, they don't have to fight, they just need to engage in internal struggles.
In the camps of the Greeks, the plague initially caused the death of various animals, and slowly spread to people. The soldiers died one by one, and the number was slowly increasing.
This plague seems to be more and more powerful as the number of people infected with the plague increases. At first, it infects animals, then ordinary soldiers, and further, maybe heroes and princes.
The firewood that cremated the corpses burned day and night in the camp, and the corpses were removed from the tent one after another.
Achilles looked at a corpse with worries, and continued in this way. Without the Trojans to attack, they themselves would be overwhelmed by the plague.
At this time, a barking singer saw Achilles' worried expression and wanted to say something, and then he stopped.
"What do you want to say?" Achilles noticed that this was a barking singer who had recently come from his hometown Tesalia. It was said to be a little bit famous, but he grew up on Skuros and was not familiar with it.
Just listening to the groaning singer trembled and said, "Prince Achilles, this situation in the army can only be resolved through the priest's consultation with the gods."
"Your suggestion is good, I will take it." Achilles nodded, and threw a piece of gold to the bard singer. He was inspired by this bard singer, and felt that this time it was only It can be solved by the gods and decided to raise it at the prince meeting.
The meeting of princes of the Greek coalition is a meeting where all the princes and heroes participate. It is also the highest meeting of the Greek coalition to make decisions. Important matters will be discussed and approved at this conference before it is put into practice.
At this time, the plague incident in the camp brought all the princes and heroes together again to hold a meeting.
"There are more and more people infected with the plague. We should bury them in isolation. If they all wait for cremation, firewood can no longer keep up with demand."
At this time, Achilles came forward and said, "This plague, our doctors did not have a very good solution. I hope to ask a priest, a fortuneteller or a dream interpreter and ask them to ask. Take the will and see what they can do to calm Apollo's anger and destroy the disaster in the army. "
"Yes, we should sacrifice to the gods in order to find a solution to this plague." The crowd nodded in agreement with Achilles's proposal, thinking that only by asking the priest or fortuneteller to ask the gods to resolve the plague.
Agamemnon watched the arrogant young man express his opinion, and was approved by many princes, and was very angry.
He believed that Achilles expressed his opinion in order to grab the limelight, buy people's hearts, and challenge his authority. Otherwise, even if Achilles came up with a way, why not tell himself in advance?
Agamemnon could not tolerate such a thing, and was about to counterattack. At this moment, someone suddenly said, "No need to go to the priest or the fortune teller. We don't have a prophet here who can communicate with the gods at any time. ?"
Hearing this, everyone remembered that Carcass was a great Greek prophet, and he could ask the gods about the solution to the plague, and everyone forgot to ask his opinions at the beginning.
Carcass face is bitter. He actually knew the reason long ago, but he didn't want to talk. He hoped that everyone would forget him at this time because the essence of this matter is the contradiction between commander and general. It is a common occurrence in any world. Force is more important, so the contradictions are sharper.
No matter what Carcas said, it would offend Agamemnon.
Agamemnon is the commander of the coalition forces. Once he offends Agamemnon, he may have his life worried, because he knows what Agamemnon is like-for the stability of his power, he can sacrifice himself. Daughter, offended himself, imagine the end.
But the asked him to speak, and he couldn't hide. He stood up helplessly. He knew that if he said these words, he would definitely offend Agamemnon, and his good life in the Greek coalition would be In the end, you must find someone to protect him.
Karcas's gaze looked at Achilles ~ EbookFREE.me ~ and said, "O Achilles, if you can protect me from harm, I can explain in detail why the gods are angry."
Although Achilles was a little surprised, he said aloud, "Our great prophet Carcass, despite your bold reasons, I must protect you from anyone."
After hearing the assurances of Achilles in front of so many people, Carcass was really relieved, not afraid of revenge on the face of Agamemnon.
"The is not angry because we don't keep our vows and don't sacrifice. His anger is that Agamemnon insulted his priest. If we don't return the priest's daughter to him, then Apollo will not give up."
"It will continue to bring disaster to us and increase the number of dead. Only by fulfilling his desire can we regain the grace of God."
Karcas's words were undoubtedly the same as the stones thrown into the calm water.
Everyone discussed the rationality of Carcas's remarks. If that was the case, he could only persuade Agamemnon to put the priest's daughter, Cruceis, back to calm Apollo's anger.
"I think it may be the same as what Carcas said, that Captain Agamemnon insulted the priest and did not return his daughter to him."
"If we want the spirit to quell the anger, we must return Clécys to the Priest of Chrysses as soon as possible, or our soldiers will have to endure the plague."
Achilles was very young, now only fifteen or six years old. I did not expect that it was caused by Agamemnon's return of the priest's daughter, Cleissei, but it was easy to know the situation. Let Agamemnon return the daughter of Crises.
But this said, Agamemnon was immediately furious, thinking: "Achilles, can't you wait to seize power now?"
