Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 3162 Sea of ​​Dreams (3)

Georgiana takes a walk in the camp.

Everyone was busy doing their own thing, but occasionally someone would take the initiative to say hello to her, and she returned the greeting with a smile.

According to Appian's records, during the Second Punic War, Hannibal's army came to the shores of Lake Trasimeno. The swamp was difficult to cross. It was no less difficult than climbing over the mountains, but because of the Under the guidance of the guide, Hannibal successfully led 40,000 soldiers through the Arnus Marsh, which was considered impenetrable by people at the time.

This place was very close to Rome. After hearing the news, the men, women, and children in the city quickly armed themselves. Due to the lack of weapons, even the weapons as trophies in the temple were removed.

But at this time, divine will caused Hannibal to turn around and turn to the Adriatic Sea. He plundered the coastal areas along the way and plundered many supplies. The dictator elected by the Romans now led his army towards him, but instead of engaging in an immediate battle, they marched in parallel.

At the beginning of the founding of Rome, a group of Gauls did not return to the Gaul region after plundering Rome. When they encountered the Apennine Mountains, they headed sideways to the Adriatic Sea. At this time, the coastal areas had been occupied by the Greeks. Occupying an area stretching from the Apennine Mountains to the right of the Italian border to the coast, this area was known as Gallic Italy.

The Roman dictator did not engage in war with Hannibal, even if Hannibal took the initiative to provoke him, so he just delayed it until the autumn. After the awns are harvested, you can actually harvest another round, but the premise is that there are seeds to plant after the awns are harvested.

Hannibal's military campaigns affected agricultural production, and in the fall he ran out of food.

If Hannibal needed food, he had to pass through the Roman army. At this time, the Roman dictator decided to besiege rather than attack. However, his cavalry commander did not agree with his strategy. He accused the dictator of being timid and hesitant. Before, so when the dictator returned to Rome to hold sacrifices, he seized military power and went to war with Hannibal.

He won a small victory and then wrote to the Senate, which gave equal control of the army to the cavalry commander and the dictator. The army was then divided into two halves, with both sides disagreeing with each other's tactics.

Only when absolutely necessary, he would fight against the most talented military strategists, which Augustus kept in mind. In addition to his own army, Hannibal also brought a large number of prisoners. Because the dictator repeatedly prevented him from plundering, he ran out of food quickly.

He came to a pass. The terrain of this pass was very dangerous, and the dictator had already led his troops to guard various important positions, almost besieging Hannibal.

At this juncture, Hannibal had to kill the prisoners. When he first left Spain for Gaul, he killed a group of Gaulish prisoners to intimidate the Gauls, and then marched towards the Po River. When he crossed the Alps for the first time, only one war elephant survived. This time he opened a passage, heated the rocks with wood, and then waited for the harsh winter temperatures to cause the stones to break. A large number of war elephants were brought from Spain. Still alive, he fought a fierce battle with the Roman defenders on the plains.

It’s not just bears that hibernate in winter, humans also try to avoid fighting in winter. After killing the prisoners, Hannibal ordered a fire bull to attract the attention of Rome. He tied torches to the horns of the bull, then extinguished the campfire, and then let the brave soldiers drive the bull across the cliff. When the Romans on both sides saw the torches, they had different reactions. The dictator thought it was Hannibal who was tricking him, so he asked the soldiers to stick to their positions.

But the people guarding the pass thought this was a good opportunity to capture Hannibal alive. The desperate Hannibal planned to climb over the cliff to escape, so he ran towards the light of the fire.

After Hannibal waited for the Romans to leave the pass, he personally led a galloping team, advanced without fire and light, and occupied the pass. Then he blew the trumpet, and the camp fire suddenly lit up. The people in the camp took the opportunity to quickly pass through the pass. And they occupied a city where abundant grain and grass were stored, and spent the winter there.

When Rome heard that Hannibal had crossed the swamp, it raised a corps of citizen soldiers, who were also commanded by a private citizen. They had not received any military training, but they were going to fight Hannibal and his war elephants.

Socrates' description of blood appears in The King, accompanied by the appearance of city-state guards.

Blood maintains an internal order that is not affected by external factors. When Agamemnon and Achilles had a conflict over the spoils of war, Achilles gave up the order he maintained because of the death of his friend, reconciled with Agamemnon, and participated in the Trojan War. .

When the city-state is about to be destroyed, the guardian may lose the object of his love. If the guardian does not have a special love object, he will not suffer from the loss of his lover.

When the flesh is driven by pain, it will seek revenge or save regardless of life or death.

In Aristotle's view, blood is not the disposition to face the danger of war and death calmly, but the beast's response to pain, and the wounded beast will fight back.

Faced with this situation, Hannibal, who was famous for his prowess in warfare, disarmed Rome's improvised citizen soldiers after defeating them. He released Rome's allies without even asking for a ransom, allowing them to go wherever they wanted. Where, but held Roman prisoners, Hannibal would not have killed them if it were not for the desperate situation.

Although there are no swords and spears, stones can also be used as weapons. The Romans were equally adept at sieges, and their trebuchets allowed them to produce as much force as the stones thrown by the Cyclops.

Guardians are not just soldiers, women, the elderly, and children can be its guardians.

However, Odysseus and others actually passed by the Cyclops' prison on their way home after the Trojan War.

The crimes they committed in Troy made the gods think that they deserved punishment. Some of them died in shipwrecks, and their bodies sank to the bottom of the sea and were eaten by fish.

If the Titans had not fallen, then the Cyclops eating Odysseus' companions would also be a punishment from the gods.

Blood has nothing to do with fairness and justice, although blood also represents a rule of order and has the concept of justice. Plato believed that it is impossible to aspire to perfect justice, because it requires treating the incommensurable things in human life as commensurable things. Plato believed that people need to control their own flesh and blood.

Her personal understanding of Michelangelo's David is knowing that he cannot do something but doing it. Michelangelo did not use the previous depiction of David trampling the enemy's head under his feet after victory. In a state of confrontation, David is like a taut string, containing powerful power both in body and mind.

After the stone was quarried in Florence, no sculptor dared to touch it. It lay idle for more than 40 years. Many sculptors touched it but gave up.

It is huge, but the stone is of poor quality and easily breaks during the carving process, thereby destroying the integrity of the sculpture. And Michelangelo said that whether he was confident or reckless, he did it with a chisel anyway.

David was facing a huge challenge, and so was Michelangelo, who this time did not inscribe his name on the Pieta because he didn't need to.

The Michelangelo who completed the Pieta was not yet famous, but the Michelangelo who completed the David was already world-famous.

If only time and flesh and blood could stay at this moment forever like marble.

After Odysseus took away the Cyclops's sight, he was very eager to kill him, but he decided to keep the giant alive so that when the world asks him how he became blind, he will tell him Odysseus' name.

He was not afraid of the giant's revenge, and even reported the name of his hometown. At this time, the Cyclops wanted to ask for peace. As long as Odysseus sent him to Earthquake God, Poseidon would send him to his hometown.

However, whether Odysseus was just being quick with his words or really meant it, he told the Cyclops that he would send the giant to the underworld, so that even the earth-shattering god would not be able to heal his eyes.

So the Cyclops raised his hand to the starry sky and cast a curse on Odysseus. Even if fate destined him to return home, he would suffer disaster and suffer misfortune once he got home.

Later he met the Sirens, whose beautiful songs and prosperous land made people forget their danger.

Odysseus put wax in the ears of the others so that they could not hear the singing.

But there is always someone who needs to pay attention to the sound of the wind.

The Adriatic Sea blows from the north most of the time, and the locals call her bora, but Hannibal knew that the east wind would blow at noon.

When the wind blew, the Romans were already fighting with Hannibal at Cannae, and Hannibal's camp was just upwind.

Anyone who has played badminton knows that hitting the ball downwind is easy, but hitting the ball against the wind is very difficult, but this does not affect the Roman cavalry charge.

Their numbers were small, and the battle lines were thin, but they still moved forward indomitably.

Georgiana turned a corner and saw a small clearing behind the woods. There was a wooden cage with many people inside.

They were all old, weak, women and children. After the wizard turned the land into a swamp, they could not leave on foot, nor could they be carried away by the golden-winged bird like no one.

Without exception, they are all Muggles.

Magic is gifted randomly. It may be that wizard parents give birth to squibs, or that Muggle parents give birth to wizards.

France's huge population base means that their wizard population is much larger than that of the British wizards. That's why Grindelwald spent so much energy, not only holding performances in the underground cemetery, but also lobbying one by one.

There was no cold wind in the tent, but the drafty prison made the prisoners shiver.

She would never forget the story about the farmer and the snake.

But these people huddled together for warmth, while the wizards outside laughed at them.

There is no historical source that makes it clear when the Romans regarded themselves as descendants of the Trojans. At least in Tacitus's time, many people already thought so.

So she turned back to her tent and ended her aimless walk.

Hufflepuffs are not good at handling conflicts and will even suffer the consequences themselves in order to avoid them.

But now she needs to think carefully about how to solve it, and even if it doesn't work, she has to ask others how to solve it.

Although she felt that if she wrote this letter asking for advice, she would most likely be scolded.
