After the black manta was killed, the entire underwater world relaxed at once.
In fact, the underwater world has always been very safe. Although the sinking of the Atlantis continent into the sea was a great disaster, in the long run, this undoubtedly allowed the Atlanteans to have an extremely stable environment.
At the same time, the resources are rich and there are no competitors. On land, the contradiction between people and land still exists today, but it is not the case in the underwater world. The vast ocean belongs to the Atlanteans, and there is no need to compete. Even if there are some minor frictions between countries, there has basically been no major war. The only major war was when all countries fought against the Lost Kingdom together.
Atlantis has no competitors at all in the sea, which makes them more adaptable to a slow pace of life. At the same time, most people are somewhat insensitive to crises.
Do you know what Atlantis considers to be the biggest threat so far?
It is human activities that pollute the marine environment!
Nothing more besides this.
So when Black Manta appeared, some Atlanteans were alarmed, but others didn't really care. When Black Manta was killed and the Lost Kingdom was completely destroyed, many Atlanteans put their weapons away and retired.
Speaking of which, although the Atlanteans were highly developed, their military system was still very, very classical!
It still follows the ancient Athenian military system.
The ancient Greek city-state of Athens was one of the most prominent political and cultural centers of the classical period. In Athenian society, military power played an important role, especially heavy infantry.
The ancient Greek city-state of Athens was famous for its strong military force and organizational structure in the classical period. The military system of Athens played a vital role in shaping the security and development of the city-state. This section will explore the military organization and system of Athens in the classical period, focusing on the status and importance of heavy infantry in the Athenian army.
The military organization and system of the Athenian city-state consisted of a series of institutions and procedures designed to maintain the security of the city-state and protect the freedom of its citizens. The following are some of the main aspects:
Military service system: Athens implemented a compulsory military service system, that is, all citizens had the responsibility and obligation to join the army. Citizens were divided into different military service levels based on factors such as age and property, and each level had different military service requirements and durations.
The Aelia was the meeting place of Athens and the center of military assembly and organization. In the Aelia, citizens were assigned to different units and companies and received training and command.
Generals: The Athenian army was led by generals, who were senior military commanders elected by the citizens. They were responsible for organizing and commanding the army, and developing strategy and tactics.
Military Court: A military court is a body that deals with military-related cases and disputes. It ensures discipline and fairness in the military and punishes soldiers who violate discipline.
In classical Athens, military power was an important part of the city-state, and the military obligations and conscription of citizens played a vital role in maintaining the security and development of the city-state. In classical Athens, citizens had the right and obligation to participate in the affairs of the city-state, including military obligations and responsibilities. The following are the main obligations of citizens in the military:
Military service obligation: All free-born Athenian citizens are obliged to serve in the army. Citizens are divided into different military service levels based on factors such as age and property, and each level has different military service requirements and durations. Military service is a manifestation of citizens' responsibility and loyalty to the city-state.
Military Training: Citizens receive military training at a young age to improve their combat skills and discipline. This includes learning tactics, handling and using weapons, etc. Through military training, citizens are able to prepare for the defense and military operations of the city-state.
Assembly and participation in decision-making: Citizens participated in decision-making and discussion of military affairs in the Aelia (the assembly place in Athens). They had the right to make suggestions, express their opinions, and make decisions on military policies and actions.
In order to ensure the quantity and quality of the army, classical Athens implemented a system of conscription and service requirements. Here are some of the main aspects:
Age requirements: Citizens usually have to reach a certain age before they can join the military. Adult men usually begin their military obligations around the age of 18, while some systems require citizens to complete their military service within a certain age range.
Property Assessment: The property status of citizens is also an important factor in determining the level and obligation of military service. Property assessment is intended to ensure that military responsibilities and obligations are distributed fairly so that there is no unfairness between the rich and the poor.
Military service period: Citizens are required to serve for a specific period of time, depending on the level of military service and the need. This period can be short-term, such as a few months, or long-term, such as a few years. After the expiration of the service period, citizens may be required to continue to provide other forms of military service to the city-state.
The establishment and organization of military personnel: The conscription system ensures the number and establishment of the army. Citizens are assigned to different troops and units according to their military service level and ability, forming an organized military force.
Military obligations and conscription in Classical Athens played a vital role in maintaining the security and stability of the city-state. The military obligations and responsibilities of citizens ensured that the city-state could mobilize and organize a strong military force. The conscription system and service requirements ensured the quantity and quality of the army.
These things can be used directly on the Atlanteans by simply changing the subject.
Yes, they did not have a professional army. Their only standing army was the Royal Guard and the City Guard.
Once a war is about to start, the royal family will recruit soldiers, and every adult Atlantean, whether willing or not, must receive training the moment they become an adult. This is tradition.
This is all thanks to the Atlanteans' natural strong physique, otherwise, they would just be a mob... But we can't underestimate these people. They have a long lifespan and have plenty of time to receive military training.
After all, each of them has to undergo decades of military training, even if it is only a few months a year, but over time, most of them are soldiers with qualified individual qualities... but as for discipline and cooperation... forget it.
Now that the crisis has been resolved, the troops that were originally summoned have returned home.
Now the Kingdom of Atlantis is at peace!!!
So when Gel arrived at the underwater kingdom, he was stunned.
No, although I am launching a surprise attack, you can't be completely unprepared!
After all, he was planning to raid the other party's royal city, and he was also thinking about how to accomplish this task at the lowest cost. He tried his best to disguise himself and enter the city... In the end, he found that the entire city was not defended at all... In fact, it was almost the same.
Atlantis had been peaceful for who knows how many years. In addition to the royal guards who had to guard the palace all the time, the city guards were more like police and traffic police, and their numbers were always insufficient... Atlantis, who were used to a slow life, were not very interested in long-term guard work.
They are more willing to enjoy life.
They don't even have the so-called concept of defense. Who are they defending against?
The Kingdom of Atlantis has a special status among all the countries. They have always been the only ones bullying others, and there is basically no such thing as others bullying them. Moreover, the countries are really far apart. They are not even in the same ocean. They don’t even have troops stationed on their borders, let alone the capital.
There are naturally benefits to doing this.
You know, maintaining a standing army is very expensive!
Most of the time, Atlantis didn't need to worry about military expenses. After all, the soldiers always brought their own food during training, and there was no subsidy. This was a tradition. The soldiers would only be paid when they went out to fight.
This also means that Atlantis can invest more financial expenditure in education, science and technology, and people's livelihood.
Far away.
Things are much simpler than you think.
Gur got the Trident of Poseidon without even fighting.
They enshrined this thing on the statue of Poseidon in the palace... The Trident of Neptune was considered a symbol of the royal family, so Atlanna always held it with her. The appearance of this thing in any public occasion was overwhelming.
Especially when Arthur was still in the royal city of Atlantis, he couldn't let go of this thing.
God knows whether those nobles will directly assassinate Arthur... Don't be surprised. In the eyes of those nobles, Atlanna and Arthur are not a community... At least they don't admit it. Now that Orm has returned, Arthur has become even more marginalized.
Yes, the whole family is already making dumplings, so Om naturally doesn't need to go to the kiln anymore. After Om swore to voluntarily give up his right to inherit the throne and fully support Meila to take the throne, Meila would naturally return the favor in this regard.
After all, it was an oath made in front of the sea god and all the nobles, and it was legally binding.
The key point is that Meira really doesn't take Om's level seriously.
This made Arthur even more eye-catching. In the past, the queen had only one son, so everyone could only restrain themselves, at least not in the royal city. But now... a dispensable bastard died, and many nobles, especially young nobles, were very happy to exchange their lives for Arthur.
Although in the short term, this would anger the queen, and although the queen would not kill the entire assassin's family, she would definitely vent her anger and suppress them. However, the nobles never only focus on the present, they focus on the future!
Yes, they were suppressed when the queen was in power, but all the nobles appreciated their kindness!
The assassin will become a hero.
Just like Zhuan Zhu and Jing Ke, they are praised by everyone. This is the greatest political legacy! This will guarantee the bottom line for the entire family for generations! With this political legacy, this family will definitely soar to the sky after the queen abdicates!
So many young nobles are eager to try.
For many nobles, family is the most important thing. And even if they fail, their stories will be passed down, which is much better than living a life of mediocrity.
Using one's own life to exchange for everlasting fame and the rise of one's family is a win no matter how you think about it!
There are also religious reasons. The younger you are, the more likely you are to be fanatical, and the more fanatical you are, the more likely you are to go to extremes!
In their view, killing Arthur was not a mistake, but the absolutely right thing to do.
So... in order to prevent this from happening, Atlanna must be fully prepared, such as staying with Arthur at all times and carrying the Trident of Neptune at all times.
This thing is a symbol of the divine kingship. If you offend the queen in front of it, it would be a double kill of both the kingship and the divine authority!
No one dares to do this.
An act of desperation.
As for the Trident of Poseidon... this thing shouldn't be shown in front of people casually.
The reason is simple. No one understands the people's enthusiasm for Poseidon better than Mera and Atlanna. If they knew that the Trident of Poseidon would appear, they would definitely let the royal family keep the Trident... although they privately thought that Kai probably wouldn't care much about a sacred weapon.
But both of them thought that there was no need to complicate things.
Especially Meira, she was very sure that she would be pregnant with Kai's child, and the Trident would definitely be her son's. Why would she go to such lengths and risk angering Kai by taking such an extreme action?
So the Trident of Poseidon was placed in the Queen's private temple deep in the palace.
There was no one guarding around...for fear of leaks.
After all, there has never been a record of the palace being robbed in thousands of years... Who the hell is this idiot?
After all, Atlantis was a regime where royal power and divine power were closely combined, and the royal palace was equivalent to the palace of Poseidon... As the people in the sea who were all believers of Poseidon, who the hell would have the guts to go to the palace of Poseidon to cause trouble?
That being will be punished both mentally and physically!
So Gel himself was a little confused, this is too easy. Sneak all the way, and then take the artifact... This is not much more difficult than going home for dinner... Oh, this is still difficult for Gel, he has no home.
It wasn't until he was gone for quite some time that Mela and Atlanna finally discovered that the artifact had been stolen!
So Arthur was ordered to chase the thief with his brother.
Fortunately, this is in the sea. For land dwellers, it is simply a fantasy to track prey on the seabed, but for sea dwellers, it is too easy. You know, many sharks and marine animals have very unique tracking skills, and it is really difficult for ordinary people to guard against them.
Then the two sides met on the seabed.
A great battle ensued, with Orm on the verge of death and Arthur seriously injured!
Orm is rushed back to the palace... and Arthur returns to the human world.
Not discriminatory treatment.
But it has to be done.
Arthur returned to the royal city with serious injuries, which was a lot of fun. If the nobles who wanted to kill Arthur didn't do something, it would be strange. In order not to intensify the conflict, Arthur had to go back, and fortunately Arthur was happy to do so.
He really didn't like Atlantis. Even though it was incredibly beautiful, Arthur had a very bad impression of it.
If Atlanna hadn't kept trying to keep him, he would have slipped away long ago.
He is in a good condition now. He won't die for a while anyway. With his physical condition, he can be full of energy after recuperation for a period of time. It is not a big deal. Besides, he still needs to report the news to Kai.
After all, it is Kai's artifact.
It was also the first time that Arthur knew that the Trident of Poseidon actually belonged to Kay!
