King Alexander

Constantin 2022-04-23 07:01:47

From ancient times to the present, heroes must be associated with war and even killing, as if to confirm the saying: Heroes emerge in troubled times. Yali Shanda's short life was spent in wars one after another. He was undoubtedly an excellent military strategist. His hearty pre-war mobilization made the blood of his soldiers burst into flames. Fight bravely. In the end his warhorse was defeated by the Indian elephants, otherwise he would continue eastward, through the jungle and mountains, to fight a war with China, which was still in the Warring States period, who wins and who loses, of course I hope it is The seven heroes of the Warring States joined forces to defeat the mighty Yali Mountain, frustrating his arrogance and ambition to conquer the world. Unfortunately, history does not.
Many people worship him, admire him, and regard him as a hero. In my opinion, he has too many people's blood on his hands. He is a great general~~

Alexander quotes

  • Olympias: Three months you have been in Babylon, and leave me at the mercy of your enemies, of which you have many. Antipater: accustomed now to the power that you have given him. I must watch him grow stronger. I am certain that he communicates secretly with Parmenion, who is dangerous. But beware most of all of those closest to you. They are like snakes, and can be turned. Cassander is Antipater's son. Even Cleitus, your father's favorite. And Ptolmey. Your friend, yes, but beware of men who think too much. They blind themselves. Only Hephastion do I leave out. But all of them you make rich, while your mother and yourself you leave in generous poverty. Why won't you ever believe me? It is only a dark mind like mine that can know these secrets of the heart. For they are dark, Alexander. So dark. But in you, the son of Zeus, lies the light of the world. Your companions will be shadows in the underworld when you are a name living forever in history as the most glorious, shining light of youth. Forever young, forever inspiring. Never will there be an Alexander like you, Alexander the Great.

  • Philip: [to Young Alexander] A king isn't born, Alexander, he is made. By steel and by suffering. A king must know how to hurt those he loves. It's lonely. Ask anyone. Ask Heracles. Ask any of them. Fate is cruel. No man or woman can be too powerful or too beautiful without disaster befalling. They laugh when you rise too high. And they crush everything you've built with a whim. What glory they give in the end, they take away. They make of us slaves.
