Chapter 280 The third pharaoh died on the battlefield
Author: Sifang Qianjun
The scorching sun is high at noon.
The Hyksos and the Southern Egyptians were fighting fiercely on the plain south of the City of the Sun. Seth [Zeus], the patron saint of the Hyksos, and Amon, the patron saint of the southern Egyptians, were also fighting.
battle.
Although the war between gods will not directly harm humans, it can change the celestial phenomena and affect humans.
As Seth [Zeus] unleashed the power of the Storm God with all his strength, strong winds blew from all directions across the battlefield, even blowing some soldiers to and fro.
Amon burst out with the power of the sun god, making the already hot noon like a furnace. The scorching heat made the soldiers on both sides of the war sweat profusely, and they wished they could rush into the Nile River to cool down their bodies.
As a bystander of this war, Roy led his three thousand Egyptian soldiers stationed on the banks of the Nile. Therefore, the changes in the celestial phenomena caused by the power of Seth [Zeus] and Amon did not affect Roy's soldiers.
have an impact.
Looking at the war between the gods and the changes in the situation on the human battlefield, Roy said with some disappointment.
"The Southern Egyptians are really bad at war! They have 50,000 more soldiers than the Hyksos, but they still can't gain the upper hand."
At this time, in the center of the battlefield, the southern Egyptian Pharaoh Camos was being besieged by Cephes, Perseus, Minos and Ramses II.
Kamos fell into such a besieged situation because his army of 100,000 men not only failed to suppress the 50,000 Hyksos army, but was in turn suppressed by the 50,000 Hyksos army.
.
Camos had to use his own strength to block the four heroes Cepheus, Perseus, Minos, and Ramses II.
Seeing Kamos being besieged by four men, Cefus sighed while stabbing Kamos' body with a bronze war spear.
"Camos, you really look like a young and brave warrior."
Camos immediately responded with a smile.
"Cephus, if I were a young and brave lion, you would be an old lion leading a group of cubs to attack me. Unfortunately, the numerical advantage cannot change the strength gap between you and me."
"Camos, look at your soldiers!"
Perseus suddenly said to Camos.
"Your soldiers are not as brave as you. Without you, the pharaoh, to lead the charge, even if you have 100,000 more soldiers than us, we will still be able to defeat your soldiers."
"We Egyptians are an agricultural nation and are not as barbaric and good at fighting as you nomads because the priests and nobles who have ruled Egypt for thousands of years need all Egyptians to be weak and bullyable. If all Egyptians were brave and good at fighting and as barbaric as you nomads,
How could the priests and nobles rule the Egyptians and enjoy the food and wealth provided by the Egyptian common people?"
Camos said with a smile.
"More than a hundred years ago, you Hyksos were able to conquer more than two million people in Egypt with tens of thousands of people. It's not that you Hyksos are really powerful, it's just because you promised not to touch the city-states.
The fundamental interests of the priestly aristocracy. If you, like Roy, wanted to eliminate all the priestly aristocrats, you Hyksos would have no chance of dominating Egypt. But you did not eliminate the priestly aristocrats, and you were allowed to rule the various city-states in Egypt only in name.
If the more than two million people in Egypt are really controlled by you - even if only the more than one million people in northern Egypt are controlled by you, we southern Egyptians will not be able to fight against you, because you Hyksos have more advanced weapons.
More powerful military technology."
"What you are saying is nonsense! We, the Hyksos, only had tens of thousands of people at the beginning. If we did not compromise with your priests and nobles, could we really conquer more than two million Egyptians with thousands of warriors?"
After Cefus finished speaking angrily, he began to attack Kamos even more fiercely.
No one noticed that Phineus, the brother of Cepheus, was driving a chariot close to Camos, Cepheus and others in the battle.
Because the person who really drives the chariot is Phineus's charioteer, Phineus on the chariot is bending his bow and aiming his arrow at Camos.
The battle between the gods Seth [Zeus] and Amon has also entered a new stage at this time.
Because the power of the storm was never able to cause any harm to Amon, Seth [Zeus], who turned into a tornado, suddenly flew away from Amon, and then shot straight into the sky and turned into thunder.
"Amon! Although I took the identity of Set, the native Egyptian storm god, after I came to Egypt, my strongest power is not the storm."
The golden thunder incarnated by Seth said in a thunderous voice while growing in size in the sky.
"Thunder is my most primitive godhead and the strongest power I possess. Now in order to determine the outcome between us, you must accept my strongest blow!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Seth turned into a thousand-meter-long golden thunder dragon and descended from the sky towards Amon.
Under the horrified gazes of the gods, Amon also unleashed the power of the sun with all his strength, turning into a small sun blooming with infinite divine light on the ground.
Rumble——
With a loud sound that seemed to shatter the space, the golden thunder dragon transformed by Seth collided with the little sun transformed by Amon.
At the same time, Cepus, with the consciousness of perishing together, stabbed Kamos in the heart with his bronze spear.
Puff!
After Kamos saw Cefus' intention, he first pierced Cefus' body with his own war spear. Cefus' spear blade only left a shallow wound on his heart.
Seeing Cefus' eyes widening unwillingly, Kamos sneered and said.
"You must be very unwilling to trade a potentially fatal serious injury for my minor injury now! You will be even more unwilling to do so next, because without you, an old demigod hero, to stop me, I can defeat you alone.
You Hyksos army of 50,000 men."
After Kamos finished speaking, he kicked Cefus backwards and flew away.
Just as the spear blade of Cepus left Kamos's wound, an arrow struck from the string with an astonishing sound of breaking through the air, and stabbed deeply into the wound on Kamos' heart.
This unexpected attack made Camos' eyes widen in disbelief, and he looked down at the arrow piercing his heart.
"If I hadn't been stabbed by Cepheus, this kind of arrow couldn't hurt me at all——"
Although it was difficult to accept his own death, Camos understood that he had been fatally injured.
Even a demigod hero will die if his heart is injured.
Seeing the seriously injured Cephes being protected by Perseus, Minos, Phineus, and Ramesses II, Camos immediately cheered up and said.
"I must kill them! Only by letting them become my burial objects can we Southern Egyptians completely defeat the Hyksos."
Although he was entering the last moments of his life, what Kamos wanted was not to avenge himself or kill his attackers, but to kill the southern Egyptians who were the biggest obstacle to defeating the Hyksos.
After Camos approached Cepus and the others like a wounded beast, Perseus and the others immediately took the seriously injured Cepus and fled in a chariot.
Just when Camos was about to chase them, Roy saw the changes on the battlefield and rushed into the center of the battlefield to block Camos alone, brandishing his spear.
