European Series - "The Hippo War", the Battle of Plataea, the Delian League
In terms of the output of the Greek peninsula, it is definitely impossible to supply the additional hundreds of thousands of Persian troops. After losing command of the sea, Xerxes' decision to make a strategic retreat was not problematic. However, after all, the Persian Army had already advanced to the Isthmus of Corinth, and it was a little unwilling to fully retreat without a decent land battle. So after much consideration, Xerxes' son-in-law, Mardonius, and a selected Persian army, were left in Greece. In the records of the Greeks, the number of the Persian army left behind in Greece is still as high as 300,000. Of course, for boasting reasons, this figure is obviously exaggerated, and combined with archaeological evidence, the number of this army should be in the early 100,000s.

European Series - "Battle of Salamis" in "Hippo War"
After the thermal gate was breached, the Athenians actually understood that even if the Peloponnesian League was willing to help them build a land line of defense, the possibility of Athens being able to hold it was very low. Therefore, when the Persian army went south through Thebes, the city of Athens had become a ghost city, and the personnel were transferred to a safe place to hide. As for the Greek combined fleet, which is dominated by Athens, it is docked on the east coast of "Salamis Island" on the west side of Athens.

European Series - The Battle of Wenquan Pass in the "Hippo War"
Abandoning the Tenby Valley means that the Attica Peninsula has become a plate that the Greeks must defend. Of course, the Spartans and their Peloponnesian allies would have preferred to focus their defenses on the Isthmus of Corinth. Otherwise, they will not send the regiments withdrawn from the Tenby Valley to the Isthmus of Corinth. However, the Athenians would definitely not want to do so. In this kind of relationship, no one can only care about their own interests.

European Series - Macedonia's Choice in the "Hippo War"
After the Battle of Marathon, Athens, which successfully repelled the Persian army, undoubtedly injected a shot of stimulant into the entire Greek region, and its prestige has naturally been greatly improved. Speaking of which, the Spartans had a chance to share the victory. Because before the war, the Athenians had turned to this old enemy for help. Seeing that they had also humiliated the Persians, the Spartans agreed to Athens' request (with 2000 reinforcements). However, the Spartans will celebrate their most important festival "Kania" every year in September. During the nine days of celebrating the festival, in order to show respect for the gods, no war can be waged. And the Persian attack, "just" in September.

Authors and Creators
As I sit here looking through the various stories of the other authors and creators. I say creators cause in my own personal analogy, to become a good author you must also become a good creator. As you put the pen to paper you begin to create, creation came from a great story, the story of evolution, the story of how we came to be. As we sit and begin to read, the author has created a new adventure for the person reading it. No matter what language or where it is read, it will take each and every one of you on a different adventure. I write of my own opinion, not to try and force you to read anything you do not want to, my goal as an author or creator is to take you on an adventure when you read the pages. Let your imagination fly as you read and get immersed into another world or universe. Many a time I turned to a good book to take me away from the troubles of today, to a place of tranquility and peace only to have to come back again ready to face the world. As an author, I want to take you to that place where you can forget about your troubles, a place where you want to be. As the internet explodes, there are more and more people looking for ways out, somewhere to go and get away and I would like to be one of those people to take you there on one of those adventures.

How To Start Your Own Mushroom Farming Business
I have been doing a lot of research in regards to the business side of mushroom farming and I thought the information I’m about to share with my readers today should be publicized as it can help future mushroom farmers fulfill the market’s supply & demand of mushrooms anywhere in the world. First of all, let’s talk about the cost of materials that you will need in order to start a mushroom farming business. So, the items you will need can be bought from one or more sources but for simplicity’s sake, I will use amazon as an example. You will have to first get a pressure cooker which is going to cost about $100 or more minimum. Then you will need to get some glass jars preferably a 12 pack of 24oz jars (~$33), High temp Silicone (~$13), 100 Canning Lids/100 Rings (~$35), 50lbs of Whole grain/Rye grain (~$70, good for use on 33 24oz jars), 4 shelf storage shelves (~$119)

The umbrella that protects the wind and rain
"Tic tic, tic......" For the third time, the alarm rang, I reluctantly got out of the blanket, with that blurred blinking eyes looked at a few hands on the alarm clock, and faintly said, "Uh, eight o'clock." A few seconds later: "Yikes! It's eight o'clock!" The expression immediately changed from just dumbfounded to shocked, quickly put on clothes, and pick up the school bag, towards the direction of the school, all the way to speed.

The taste of winter
Already in the depths of winter, more and more fascinating, I'm talking about the mood. Regrettably, there is no snow in Kunming, a few days ago cooling, light rain, and snow, symbolically floating little snowflakes, not much time to stop, eager for the snow-capped winter but did not appear in front of us stunningly.
