Roman Slave Owner

Damascus, an extremely old city, is one of the oldest inhabited cities in the world. It is located in an oasis in the desert near Mount Lebanon.

Known as the "garden on earth" and "paradise on earth", it is an extremely important node of the Silk Road. A large number of commodities from China are continuously exported to Rome through this place. Li Wei finally led his army to come here.

Antiochus accepted the reality of the end of the Seleucid dynasty in Syria, and instead of rebelling against Rome, he chose to obey.

During Li Wei's expedition to Armenia, he and many princes infiltrated his own land and called on the people there to resist Armenia, otherwise Li Wei's expedition would not be so smooth.

Recently, it's time to discuss merits and rewards. Li Wei wants to canonize kings one by one.

A large number of kings gathered nervously to Damascus, waiting for Li Wei's ruling.

They paid a lot, and now it's finally time for the results.

"General, this is a gift from Azina, a king of the Taedmoor Kingdom. In addition, there are three hundred beauties of various ethnicities. He hopes to see you and express his respect for you."

Lycias said.

The Kingdom of Demur is a kingdom composed of Arabs in Syria. There are a large number of Arabs distributed throughout Syria and the Arabian Peninsula. They are a group of Semites like the Jews.

The Arabian Peninsula is the birthplace of the Semites. Because the Arabian Peninsula has a large number of deserts, when the population grows, the Semites will migrate outward. The Babylonians and Assyrians who created the glorious civilization are actually part of the Semites.

The Arabs are the last Semitic people to remain in the Arabian Peninsula, and they are the true natives of the region.

Their men are responsible for fighting, hunting and grazing, never farming, and some tribes make a living by looting.

Therefore, the tribe is extremely patriarchal, and the birth of a girl is regarded as an ominous symbol, and the phenomenon of burying a girl in life often occurs.

Li Wei looked at the whole box of jewels and precious gifts in front of him, his face didn't change much.

During this period of time, those kings sent various items like crazy, fearing that Li Wei would not canonize them.

At this time, a gift caught his attention. It was...silk?

Li Wei stepped forward, gently stroking the silky silk, his face became gentle.

This is the taste of hometown.

Lycias looked at Li Wei in surprise, no matter how expensive the jewellery or even the crown, he didn't take a look at it, but he actually liked the fabric so much.

"How did they perform in this battle?"

Li Wei asked.

"Their king Azina led the tribe to support Antiochus and made great contributions to the restoration of Antioch."

Lycias said.

Li Wei frowned and did not speak. The Arabs have always been a factor of instability in both the Republic and the Empire.

In the Republican era, they supported the King of Kings, sent guides to lead Krasu into a desperate situation, and now they are attacking Syria.

In the age of empire, they repeatedly rebelled against the Roman Empire.

To be honest, he dislikes Arabs very much.

"Accept the gift and record it in the army's account book, and the beautiful woman will give it to the meritorious soldier. Arrange for me to meet him tomorrow morning. I bought this thing with my money and made some clothes for me."

Li Wei pointed to the silk and said.

There is no reason not to accept the gifts you give to your door, as long as they are confiscated.

"Ok."

Lycias said.

While Li Wei was busy canonizing the king and preparing for the attack on the Arabian Peninsula, the arrival of two envoys broke the peace here.

They are Aristobulus of Palestine and his brother Sikanus.

At this time, Palestine was a country ruled by the Jewish Maccabees, a country with a very strong religious atmosphere.

They did not get rid of the rule of the Seleucid dynasty in Syria for long, and during the period they were helped by the Romans, so they had great respect for Rome.

"Dear General Li Wei, I am the eldest son of the Maccabees, and the throne of Palestine is clearly mine. It is the same in our east."

Sikanus said that he was very fat, at least more than two hundred catties, and his eyes seemed to be narrowed when he spoke.

"No, when you were on the Temple Mount, you already admitted that I am the king of Palestine. You can't say nothing."

Aristobulus said.

"I was forced by your knife on my neck, it's not counted."

Sikanus retorted unceremoniously.

Li Wei looked at the two people in front of him. In fact, it was a story of two kings fighting for the throne.

After the death of their mother Queen Salome, the two brothers began to **** the throne.

First, the younger brother defeated the older brother, so the older brother had to admit that his younger brother was the king of Palestine.

But his brother was not reconciled. After he fled to an Arab country, he borrowed troops from the Arabs and fought back, and then defeated his brother.

The political struggle of the Jews often participates in the religious struggle. At this time, the Jews have two very important religious sects, namely the Pharisees and Sadducees.

The Pharisees belong to fanatical Jews ~www.novelmt.com~ strictly believe in the provisions of the "Old Testament", and they believe that every word and letter in it has a profound meaning.

There are incredible laws and incomprehensible taboos in their lives. They believe that only they can go to heaven, and others are destined to go to hell.

Regard the age of Moses as true glory and hate all foreign things.

Hate all reforms, and all reformers will be declared by them as enemies of the country.

But they accepted some things of Eastern religion and philosophy, such as angels, demons, elves, and immortality of souls. The Pharisees were the supporters of their eldest brother Sikanus.

The main members of the Sadducees are royal family members, wealthy people and some priests. They are relatively less fanatical and rich in life. They are supporters of their younger brother Aristobulus.

The Pharisees and Sadducees sometimes kill each other. The Pharisees once tried to execute Sadducees’ religious leaders, just as a certain religion in later generations often killed you to death internally. This is heredity.

Li Wei did not interrupt, but let them both argue.

He has no good feelings about Judaism, except that it is not very expansive, and it is extremely hostile to infidels.

Moreover, there have been all kinds of friendly Jew and Chinese jokes circulating on the Internet. Before he was a child, Li Wei was very touched. When he grew up, he realized that they were all made up.

The real Jews are not friendly to China, and they have committed great crimes against China.

After the Opium War, they were the main force dumping opium to China, and their wealth carried great crimes.

In World War II, they even colluded with the Japanese to make a puffer fish project, trying to establish a country in China.

The media in the entire world are basically controlled by the Jews, and these media are the backbone of China's slander.
