Agamemnon was the commander-in-chief of the Greek allied forces, and by virtue of his power, he unreasonably took away Achilles' beloved female slave. Agamemnon did this for a reason. Previously, he took away the daughter of the priest of Apollo, the sun god, and insulted Apollo in front of the priest, which caused Apollo's anger and brought disaster to the Greek Coalition forces.

Foibers Apollo was carrying a bow and a covered quiver,

he went straight down from the top of Olympus, full of anger,

he galloped angrily all the way, and the arrows clanged on his back-

he came, like night arrival,

he squatted down to the warship from a distance and released an arrow,

He shot mules and fast-running dogs first, and then

released a sharp arrow that tore his heart out and shot them down at the crowd.

The fire burning the corpse is burning fiercely and lasts for a long time.

For nine days in a row, God's arrows rained down on the allied forces.

if god openly opposes people, it is difficult for anyone to deal with it. Agamemnon was forced to return the slave girl, and his anger could not be vented, so he threatened to take away Achilles' war ceremony and safeguard his dignity as a king! Achilles was furious at this:

We are separated by a vast area,

There are mountains with dense projections and the roaring sea.

For your benefit-we came here with you,

to make your dog happy and help you-

you and Menelaus [mê nà iá o sê]-win back face from the Trojans!

you don't care about all this and take it for granted.

Now, you're threatening to take my part.

I've worked hard for her.

I've never been as generous as you!

I always undertake the most arduous task in the bitter battle

But when handing out the war ceremony, you always swallow the big head

and I can only take that little thing with me, which is cherished by me

and drag my weak legs back to the ship.

that's enough! I'm going back to my hometown of Forsya-it's a much better thing to go home by a crooked ship.

I don't want to submit to humiliation and stay here to accumulate wealth and increase inventory for you!

Agamemnon's rudeness made Achilles even more furious

Two different thoughts disputed his soul:

Pulling out the bronze sword with a sharp crotch,

Pulling the crowd in the way and killing Atreus's son,

Or swallowing this resentment and suppressing this rage?

Just as he was weighing these two ideas, in his heart and soul,

he pulled out the huge bronze sword from its scabbard, and Athena descended from the sky

reaching for his blonde hair,

persuading him to stop fighting and not holding the sword handle

Achilles didn't want to disobey Athena's instructions, so he gave in angrily and vowed never to fight for Agamemnon again. Seeing that the beautiful slave girl was taken away, Achilles was so sad that he called out to his mother, the sea goddess Setis.

With his tearful eyes open, he

sat alone on the beach edge of the gray-blue ocean,

Ren looked at the boundless sea water,

raised his hands again and again, calling for her to come over:

He cried in tears, called his noble mother and begged her for permission

I hoped she would make suggestions to Zeus and let the Greek allied forces fail.

Zeus, who is far away from the gods, is sitting alone on the peak of the ridge.

The silver-footed Setis made a plea:

The resourceful Zeus, the master of Olympus,

Let my son gain honor and the Trojan win the battlefield,

Until the Achaeans make up for his losses and increase his glory!

The wedding of Achilles' parents was the origin of this war. At first, they forgot to invite Eris, the goddess of discord, which made her angry and uninvited. Eris left a golden apple at the banquet, stirring up disputes among the gods. The golden apple says, "For the most beautiful goddess".

At that time, there were three people who were qualified to compete for the "most beautiful goddess": Hera, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, and Aphrodite, the goddess of love and beauty, which was later the Roman goddess Venus. They argued endlessly about the ownership of the golden apple and asked Zeus to judge. Zeus didn't want to answer the question of which is the most beautiful, his wife or daughter, so he called Paris, the prince of Troy.

In order to win the title of "the most beautiful goddess", the three goddesses bribed Paris one after another, hoping that he would award the golden apple to himself. Hera promised Paris to rule the world, Athena, the goddess of wisdom, promised him to be the wisest person, and Aphrodite, the god of love, gave him the most beautiful woman in the world. Prince Paris finally chose the gift of the goddess of love and awarded the golden apple to Aphrodite, which made Hera and Athena very angry and determined to destroy Troy.

Paris got a gift from the goddess of love as she wished-Helen, the wife of Menelaus, king of Sparta, and the first beauty of Greece. He brought Helen back to Troy. This humiliation aroused the anger of all Greeks, and with the help of two angry goddesses, the Greek allied forces besieged Troy for ten years. Man and man, god and god, man and god are all involved in the wild battle!

Setis, the goddess of the sea, once saved Zeus, the driver of the dark clouds, from shameful destruction.

At that time, other Olympian gods tried to put him on the rope,

including Hera, Poseidon (bō sài dōng) and Pallas Athena.

It was Sethi who rushed to untie him and acted quickly.

The gods were afraid and gave up the idea of binding Zeus.

Therefore, when Setis with silver feet came to the snow-covered mountain and asked for Zeus who liked to blow up mines, Zeus nodded and agreed. Hera, of course, was very dissatisfied with this, and was brutally threatened by the dictator in the sky:

Shut your mouth and sit quietly aside. Do as I say-

Otherwise, when I walk over and

open my arms to you and show my irresistible power

all the gods on Olympus will not help you!

After listening to these words, Hera, the cow-eyed lady, was afraid.

Without saying a word, she restrained her mind and obeyed his will.

At the same time, hector, the hero prince of Troy, was angry because his brother Paris got Troy involved in the war. He ordered Paris to take responsibility for his actions and not to let his city be destroyed by war. Therefore, Paris proposed to fight against Menelaus alone to stop the war.

Athena, the angry goddess, was unwilling to see peace. She encouraged the Trojans to break the agreement and sneak attack on Menelaus, who shot and wounded the victory, and rekindled the anger of the Greeks. The Greeks and Trojans, like two liger heads, began to bite fatally, with rivers of blood and thousands of miles of corpses:

the cries of pain accompanied by the cries of victory,

the cries of the murdered, the cries of the murderer, and the blood on the mud was bright red.

Like two raging torrents in winter, they rushed down from the ridge.

They went straight to the ravine, and the mighty river merged into a torrent.

With the rolling waves from the source, they flew down to the bottom of the valley.

The sound was like thunder, reaching the ears of shepherds on the distant hillside.

Not only Hera and Athena, but also other gods joined the camps on both sides. Apollo, Ares and Aphrodite, the sun gods, stood on the Trojan side, while Hera, Poseidon and Athena, the goddess of wisdom, helped the Greek allied forces.

Athena really hates Aphrodite, and she even specially encourages the Greek hero diomedes to raise a sharp copper spear when he meets Aphrodite and poke a hole in her. Even Ares, the god of war, was hurt by human heroes because of Athena's divine power:

diomedes screamed at the battlefield and threw a bronze gun,

Pallas Athena aggravated its recklessness,

plunged it deeply into Ares' belly and tied his belt.

She selected this part, pushed the spear into the deep meat layer,

and then twisted it out. Ares, clad in bronze armor, cried out in pain,

like the roar of 9, or 1, soldiers-

In the battle, the two armies met, carrying the fury of the God of War.

All the people, the Achaeans and the Trojan soldiers, were all trembling with fear.

They were afraid of the roar of Ares, who never tires of fighting.

The gods' intervention in the mortal world aroused Zeus' anger. He issued a severe warning to forbid the gods to intervene in mortal wars again, and reprimanded his wife Hera and his daughter Athena:

If I find any gods and do something else behind our backs,

I will go to help Darnay's army or Trojan soldiers, then

when he returns to Olympus, the whip of lightning will make him

look at everything about me, my strength, my invincible hands!

All the gods on Mount Olympus, you can't push me down even with your hands.

As for you two,

your beautiful limbs will tremble before you have witnessed the fighting and painful war.

I want to tell you frankly that my words will be put into practice:

Once my lightning breaks your chariots and horses,

you will never return to God's home, the mountain of Olympus!

Under the will of Zeus, the war situation gradually turned to Troy. Agamemnon, the Greek leader, began to regret his behavior. He sent someone to return Achilles' slave girl and offered her a heavy gift, hoping to get Achilles' forgiveness, but the latter refused mercilessly.

hector, the prince of Troy, swept the army, and almost no one could stop him. Under his leadership, the Trojans bullied the Greek ships several times.

hector, the son of Priam, is like a god of war who kills people without blinking an eye.

He is engaged in a life-and-death struggle, like a sudden storm,

rushing from the sky, setting off layers of waves in the dark blue ocean.

Glorious hector rushed in, carrying two spears and spears.

Her face was black, like a sudden night.

She wore protective bronze armor and flashed terrible light and cold.

At that time, no one but the gods wanted to fight with him.

Hera hated Troy. Seeing this situation, she was very anxious. She had a brainwave and used beauty to Zeus.

On the one hand, she dresses herself up and deceives the goddess of love to increase her charming magic; on the other hand, she promises to marry a young goddess to the god of sleep, in exchange for his help, to lure Zeus into charming sleep.

While Zeus was sleeping, Poseidon (bō sài dōng) took the opportunity to go into battle in person, helping the Greeks repel the Trojan attack, and even hector was seriously injured.

Zeus was furious at being cheated when he woke up. He blamed Hera greatly and warned Poseidon to stop. Poseidon suppressed his anger and left the battlefield, leaving the Greeks in trouble again. This aroused the sympathy of Achilles' good friend Patroclus. He begged Achilles to fight with his armor, but he didn't know that what he was begging was his own death.

hector killed Patroclus, causing Achilles' second anger. Despite his mother's warning, Achilles decided to return to the battlefield knowing that hector was killed, followed by his death.

The death of his best friend made him deeply regret the anger he had been aroused. Homer gave a philosophical thought about anger through his mouth:

I wish the struggle would disappear from the life of God and people.

Together with the rage that drove even the wisest people to leave the wild,

This bitter bile is sweeter than dripping honey, and

it gathers in people's chests like a cloud of smoke and confuses us.

The appearance of Achilles made the Greeks very angry. Although he lost his armor, he still made the Trojans very afraid and regained the body of Patroclus. At the same time, Setis asked Vulcan to cast excellent shields and armor for his son.

The craftsman first casts a battle shield, which is thick and huge.

It is elaborately decorated, and a three-layer fence rises around the edge of the shield.

It shines brightly, setting off the strap of pure silver.

The shield has five layers, and groups of wonderful floating scenes are cast on its wide surface.

He has devoted his skills and ingenuity.

He cast the earth, the sky, the ocean,

the tireless sun and the full moon,

and many stars, like garlands that add color to the sky.

After casting this huge and heavy battle shield,

The craftsman played a breastplate, and the twinkling flash was brighter than the flame. Then,

he made another helmet cover, which was huge and just fastened to Achilles' brain point.

It was exquisite in craftsmanship and beautiful in appearance. He cast a golden crest on the helmet,

and then made a pair of shin armor out of flexible white tin.

When the Greek Coalition forces were assembled, the nimble Achilles reconciled with Agamemnon in public and said a wise saying:

Son of Atreus, in the final analysis,

What good did your quarrel with me bring us?

for a girl, you and I made a scene and planted a bitter hatred.

I hope that Artemis [ā ě rè mí s ī] will shoot her down with an arrow and lie dead beside the seagoing ship on the day when I break through Ruernassos and seize her!

In this way, during my furious days,

Akaya's casualties will not be too heavy, and the other side will not knock over many people.

Doing so will only help hector and his Trojans.

I think the Achaeans will remember this struggle between us for a long time.

well, let bygones be bygones! Despite the pain,

we must suppress the anger that rises in our hearts.

Now, I will stop my anger-

It is not advisable to hate endlessly.

"it's not desirable to hate endlessly." This sentence reflects Homer's thinking about "anger". But Achilles was able to let go of Agamemnon's anger only because a greater anger occupied his body and mind. He grabbed his father's spear and returned to the battlefield, even though he knew he was doomed to die here, away from his dear parents.

With the return of Achilles, Zeus also announced the lifting of the ban on the participation of gods:

The gods of Olympus joined the ranks of mortals,

In the sky, the fathers of gods and men exploded with terrible thunder;

underground, Poseidon shook the boundless land, the towering mountains and dangerous peaks.

Phoebus Apollo stood firm with an arrow in his hand, attacking Poseidon, the king,

while Athena, the goddess with gray eyes, fought against Enualios.

Hera was confronted by hunters who roamed the mountains, hunters who used golden arrows, and

arrows.
