Chapter 885
Hannibal was very good at buying people's hearts. Not only was he sympathetic to his subordinates, he ate and lived with them, but he also had a lot of prestige. The Carthaginians were rich and spared their lives. Less than [-] Carthaginians were willing to join the army.

In order to obtain enough manpower, he led an unprecedented large-scale mercenary force during his reign. However, the mercenaries who were motivated by financial considerations were managed obediently by him and were willing to go through fire and water for him. This shows how powerful his ability to win over people is. .

Even though more than ten years have passed, the old troops in Carthage still have not forgotten the unrivaled commander who was like the god of war in the past. When Hannibal sent people to contact them, they all shed tears of excitement and expressed their willingness to do anything for him. Anything, even if it means letting them die.

Hannibal explained to them the possibility that Carthage was about to be destroyed, and those old minions soon understood that after all, Carthage had lost so much after the Second Punic War that they were even proud of it. All the naval warships were forced to disband, leaving only ten small warships to defend against pirates, and their military capabilities were far from those of the Romans.

The faster Carthage's business develops and the richer it becomes, the faster it is approaching the destruction of the country.

At this time, Carthage is like a little pig, who eats and sleeps all day long, and imagines that he can survive in safety until the little pig turns into a big fat pig. The breeder, Roman, has a friendly smile Disappeared, showing a greedy and weird smile, and the butcher knife hidden behind also came out.

How can there be eggs in a full nest?
In order to follow in the commander's footsteps and save themselves, the cronies joined this secret national self-rescue movement. They knew that the destruction of Carthage, which had abolished its martial arts, was unstoppable.

All they can do is to preserve the continuation of the Phoenician bloodline. They have been at odds with the Romans all their lives. They have witnessed countless times that their relatives, friends and soldiers were cut down by the Romans and fell in a pool of blood. Flowing the dirty blood of the Romans is even more unacceptable than destroying the country.

In order to prevent the Phoenicians from being assimilated by the Romans, they used maritime trade to amass wealth. During the decades, the wealth accumulated was quietly transported to an oasis in the Sahara Desert, which was also the last hiding place of the Phoenicians. at.

Three months before the outbreak of the Third Punic War, the son of Hannibal, who received a secret report from a spy, urgently notified his cronies in Carthage and issued the final evacuation notice.

After the cronies received the letter, in order not to attract people's attention, they gradually separated from the property in their hands, exchanged all the property for gold, silver, jewelry, and daily necessities, and pretended to transport the goods by camel caravan, and transported all the treasures to a place in the desert. oasis.

Finally, some poor Phoenicians were sent to the desert in batches. Within ten days before the outbreak of the third Punic War, three hundred Phoenicians were successfully transferred, and the Phoenicians in Carthage But they didn't realize the danger was coming. It wasn't until the Romans' powerful naval warships sailed into the Gulf of Tunis that their dreams were shattered.

The Romans who broke into the city of Carthage began a campaign of looting. Most of the adult men were massacred, and the women and children were turned into slaves. The gold and silver treasures like mountains were transported back to the city of Rome by merchant ships.

Since then, Carthage disappeared in the long river of history. It is said that the Romans were worried about the revenge of the Carthaginians, so they sprinkled salt grains on the countryside and cast a curse.

This group of Phoenicians hiding in an oasis in the Sahara desert survived. After decades of national self-rescue plan, Hannibal had already died of illness.

The descendants had huge wealth, which was originally prepared by Hannibal for his restoration of the country. However, they believed that the powerful Romans were invincible, and the dream of restoration was hopeless. National hatred was slowly smoothed away over time. , weakened from generation to generation, the Phoenicians also forgot and lived a life free from competition in the desert oasis.

In order to commemorate Hannibal, the remaining Phoenicians built a tomb for him. They believed that gold, silver and jewelry were the source of evil in wars and turmoil. In order to abandon their past life, they almost hid all the treasures accumulated over decades. In Hannibal's basement, buried under the yellow sand.

The records about historical documents in the letter came to this point, and Wang Yu read it verbatim, and a surging feeling arose in his heart, that the Phoenicians actually buried a batch of huge treasures under the Sahara Desert!
Hannibal’s Restoration Treasure!
Decades of accumulation, relying on the natural excellent business ability of the Phoenicians, is definitely a treasure enough to make normal people jealous. Thinking of this, even Wang Yu couldn't help but feel a little short of breath.

The blood of the audience in the live broadcast room was even more boiling. Everyone sent bullet screens crazily, which can be used as the start-up funds for the restoration of the country. God knows how much wealth this is. If some rare cultural relics are added, the sky-high price is not a big deal Difficult...

"My God! Hannibal's Restoration Treasure!"

"Damn it, Master Yu is going to get rich!"

"So, is that sheepskin map just now a treasure map?"

"By the way, wouldn't this treasure be taken away by those two adulterers and their wives long ago?"

"Probably not. Jack just said in his diary that even if he finds the entrance to the mausoleum, the traps inside are not something they can face."

"That's right, the authenticity needs to be investigated."

"The diary does not record how Jack obtained this treasure map, but according to my observation and speculation just now, strictly speaking, this sheepskin drawing is not a real treasure..."

Wang Yu said solemnly.

Before he finished speaking, everyone was a little surprised. Wasn't this lying with open eyes? It was clearly a treasure map.

Seeing everyone's doubts, Wang Yu smiled bitterly and said:
"Don't worry, let me finish my words first. First of all, this map is indeed from the hands of the Phoenicians, but his use should be a map. It should not directly standardize the specific location of the treasure, but If the tomb of Hannibal can be found, then the treasure can be found."

Although Wang Yu couldn’t understand the text on the sheepskin map, he could still understand the patterns and lines. The map mainly introduces the geographical environment and routes, such as where there are water sources, where there are large wild animals, and where to go. Which route is more appropriate.

According to these clues, Wang Yu speculates that this is a map, which was explored and drawn by the Phoenicians themselves, and its function is to better survive in this area on the map.

The Phoenicians were born smart, so they would not be so stupid to directly mark the tombs of their leaders, but they are still places where a lot of treasures are hidden.
