These five small city-states are exactly where Abram passed through when he left Egypt in the Bible.

They do not belong to Mesopotamia. They are far away from the civilization circle of Mesopotamia, and they do not belong to the civilization circle of Egypt, but they are relatively close. Their location is in the eastern part of the small delta in the north of the Red Sea.

So they were sandwiched between the two major civilizations. The concept of cities had just emerged in this era because Egyptians fled here and told them to build cities to protect themselves.

As a result, these five tribes built mud-brick cities, but they still did not break away from the barbaric customs.

Atum pointed to the five cities below: "The people here are still barbarians. They like to play with male children, and they also show a completely welcoming attitude towards foreign women. Of course, this kind of welcome, I mean... .King of the East, you understand.”

This is what happened to the tribes that were forcibly civilized. They were obviously still in the barbaric era, and this was the result of forcibly entering the civilized era. There were cities in the civilized era, but they still followed the rules of the barbaric. In the eyes of the people in these five cities, in fact, the people outside Talent is strange.

Women should engage in multi-person sports with many men in order to increase their population. Why do you need to know who the father is? You only need to give birth to children. As for boys, although they cannot have children with men, they can bring comfort and pleasure.

According to legend, Abram's nephew, Lot, who worked on the livestock farm of Zanzai, was almost killed by the strong men of Sodom. Fortunately, two angels sent by the Lord rescued him. , otherwise the chrysanthemum will burst.

Murder and bloodshed, rapes and rapes in temples, or going out to fight and plunder are the norm in these five cities. It is said that in the five cities combined, there are not even ten people with kindness.

"There is no need to impose your own moral values ​​on others. Although they are indeed very barbaric, the origin of every civilization comes from this step by step. They were influenced by the Egyptian civilization and learned to enjoy themselves. With slavery, but without learning etiquette...well..."

Yu Zai was about to say something, but got stuck.

Atum also fell silent and didn't say anything.

Egypt itself was also a slave empire, and the fruits of civilization belonged to the nobles. Of course, the nobles could not deal with these barbarians, so... rounding it off means that Egypt has no etiquette and morality.

Regarding the situation among the people, it seems that there is really no moral event worthy of praise.

"But I still have one thing to emphasize. At least we will put feathers and souls on the scale. Good souls are lighter than feathers, and sinful souls are heavier than feathers. This will affect the sentence after death."

"So, there are still more people who do good things than people who do bad things... Even those who do bad things don't dare to do them openly."

Atum was telling the truth. The Egyptians still respected Osiris. Regardless of whether this great god existed or not, they firmly believed that he did.

The Egyptians' view of the undead was unique among ancient civilizations. During the most turbulent period of the First Intermediate Period, countless nobles and warlords were doing bad things while pretending to win over the refugees, even if they allowed them to As a slave, you also have to write a defense of Osiris on clay tablets and papyrus, saying, "Look, I didn't kill them, I gave them a chance to live."

Although Yu Zai and Atum showed disgust towards these five cities, they viewed them more objectively and rationally.

But Fennis stared at the five cities that were getting further and further away. Anger surged in her heart, and she secretly made a vow.

These dirty five cities, if he became Pharaoh, he would definitely conquer them and make them completely extinct.

This makes people even more angry and desperate than slavery.

Yuzai saw her situation and warned: "If you become a king, the most important thing is not to raise an army out of anger, and to be famous."

Finnis: "Teacher, I think I am famous. If Egypt is stable, it will inevitably seek trade with other civilizations to communicate, develop, and strengthen itself. The location of these five cities prevents people from various civilizations from coming. On the east side of Egypt, I remembered at this time that when the Dilmun merchants took me away as a slave, they also deliberately avoided this place."

"Even the merchants and travelers of the Dilmun civilization did not dare to pass here. Instead, they had to cross the long desert to finally reach Mesopotamia. As long as these five cities still exist in the east of Egypt, Egypt will Normal communication with the outside world is absolutely impossible.”

"I fought against them to make Egypt great, not to kill. As for my own anger, of course I have it, and I will never deny it."

In order to save the lives of the women who come and go, but also to save the chrysanthemums of the men who come and go.

She believed that destroying these five cities was absolutely necessary.

Yu Zai said it didn't matter, you just have to figure it out yourself. The person who is about to become the king must make his own decision and bear all the consequences of the decision. main responsibility.

After about a while, the earth flew behind them at high speed, and a new city appeared in front of them.

"Let's land. The west of these five cities has now reached the city on the edge of Egypt!"

Atum signaled that Yuzai could land. The gods must be monitoring this land. It is very likely that there are gods waiting here near the edge city. If they see Fenyx swaggering in, they will definitely launch an attack. .

Atum: "Egypt actually has a small number of city-states, only forty-two in total, which cannot be compared with Mesopotamia. After all, I remember the king of Lagash, Gudea, who ruled There are more than a dozen in small city-states.”

"There are about seven or eight large city-states in the entire Mesopotamia, and dozens of small city-states. However, the number of villages and tribes in Egypt is far greater than that in Mesopotamia. After all, the Nile River is bigger than The two rivers are more fertile and richer..."

"And most importantly, we have rocks."

Having a complete experience of the civilization process, as well as stones, this is Egypt's strength.

Because the Sumerians did not have a lot of stone but had a lot of copper mines, they were forced to tilt the technology tree and enter the Bronze Age early. This seemed to be a good thing.

However, in a normal civilization, the Bronze Age still required a lot of Stone Age technology. However, the Sumerians did not have any Stone Age technology. All their Stone Age technologies were substitutes for clay and pottery, and even wooden technology points There are not many, because there are very few large tree groups in the two river basins.

Therefore, the Sumerians had advanced weapons, but they could not defeat the Elamites and Akkadians, as well as the Kutians who were armed with stone tools. They looked very powerful, but in fact they broke into pieces at a touch.

But Egypt is different. Its technology points are full and rising bit by bit.

Therefore, although the number of city-states is not as good as that of the Sumerians, their cities are built with genuine big stones. They are just like the ancient cities in the East, and their defense capabilities are much higher than those of mud-brick cities.

Among the ancient cities in the East, take the ancient city of Shimao as an example. Its defensive power is comparable to the nine-sided city of the Ming Dynasty. However, it is a Stone Age city, and it is even worse than the famous city of Menissi, which is hundreds of years behind it. It is dozens of times larger. The excavated Imperial City Terrace alone is the size of two cities of Menissi. The complete Imperial City Terrace covers an area of ​​six Menissi.

The construction era of this city was exactly the current era of Yu Zai. In other words, even without Azai's help, the ancient Eastern ancestors still had the technological capabilities to build a huge fortified city.

This is the power from the Stone Age. Although it is ancient and outdated, sometimes it is even more powerful than bronze and iron! It is the refuge of civilization. Bronze and iron tools depend on the strength of the civilization's attack, while the power of stone tools prevents the civilization from annihilation.

Dijiang turned into red light and landed on the ground, but this movement had already been seen by a pair of eyes in the dark.

"Atum, you brought people from the east. Are they Asiatics? What was said in the Neferti Prophecy left during the Fourth Dynasty came true. Asiatics really came to Egypt."

"When the Bird of Flame left here, some people were worried about it, worried that she would come back and bring the army of Asia with her."

"Then the second half of what the prophecy says will come true! There will be a king from the south, and he will wear a white crown, and he will wear a red crown...The people of Asia will fall by his sword, He will build a 'wall of rulers' to keep those Asiatics out of Egypt!"
