300 - RISE OF AN EMPIRE !!!

After the conquest of almost all the kingdoms of Central Asia, King Darius, the Persian King attacked Greece with its naval forces which sailed on the waters of Aegean Sea towards the Kingdoms of Greeks. Themistocles, the Greek Military General who strengthened the Greece naval forces fired a special arrow. Xerxes lost his father. Artemisia, the Greek woman’s parents were killed by the Citizen Soldiers (Hoplites) of Greece. Even, those Greek soldiers gangraped Artemisia several times and kept her as a sex slave. A Persian rescued that sex slave and the Persian King added fuel to the fire of revenge. After the death of King Darius, Artemisia took over the charge and planned to motivate Xerxes to become a deadly King of Persia. The Persian was sent to roam in the desert of Central Asia and he reached a cave of hermits. That cave was the den of darkness where there was a pool of black waters which was the haven of all evil souls of the supernatural world. A God King emerged! The top officials of the Persian Council and the Palace of Persia got murdered. Greece was a democratic nation but it had several small kingdoms which lacked unity. At least, the word, ‘patriotism’ was slightly a vague one for the Greeks as there were too many kingdoms with different views under the nation of Greece. Spartans were angry on the Greece Administration as they failed to send a backup military force to support the 300 Spartans who fought against the Persian soldiers to protect Greece. Spartans were yet to forget the death of their King Leonidas. King Leonidas was the real Hero of the Battle of Thermopylae. 

The Greek spy escaped from the Persian ship to provide the information about Artemisia to Themistocles. Themistocles knew about the brutal childhood of Artemisia. The Greco-Persian Naval War started. ‘Persian Ships are strong in the front but they are weak in the middle.’ Greek ships devastated the Persian ships. On the next day, Greeks applied another strategy. ‘Greeks are retreating.’ Well; it was just a ploy. Greeks sailed their ships backwards and kept their ships hidden in a smoggy area of the Aegean Sea. The small ships of Persia collided with a big hardy ship of Greece. The Greek soldiers jumped from the nearby cliffs and started chopping up the Persian soldiers. Scyllas was not happy to see his son Calisto in that battle. But, Calisto rightly replied to his father, ‘A man’s responsibility is to protect his family and his nation.’ Again, the Persians accepted a defeat. Artemisia tried to apply another strategy. A true gentleman satisfies a woman completely but never surrenders to a woman’s impractical demand. At that juncture, patriotism was a priority for Themistocles rather than becoming a playboy lover or keep for Artemisia. Artemisia enjoyed the extreme hard and wild banging vibration of Themistocles’s natural asset, but failed to have the last laugh. After a few days, Persian ships came back strongly to completely drown all the Greek ships. Who lost his father in the battle? Was Themistocles still alive? After winning the naval war, Xerxes ordered his soldiers to march towards Greece. Without the support of Spartans, military power of Greece was not so strong enough to defeat the Persians.

The Greek Military General met Queen Gorgo, the wife of the Late King Leonidas. The Queen of Sparta Kingdom decided to support the other kingdoms of Greece to fight for the pride and glory of their united motherland or nation, Greece. The crooked Greek traitor gave the information that all the Greece Kingdoms have become united to fight as a single Greek force to protect their nation, Greece from Persian invasion. ‘Who commands their forces?’ Artemisia became furious after hearing the name of the Greek Military General. ‘Ready my troops and armour. We will attack at once.’ Xerxes suggested Artemisia to have some wisdom, but, Artemisia didn’t change her mind. ‘We chose to die on our feet rather than live on our knees.’ The unified Greek force attacked the Persian ships along the Salamis Islands at the south-western end of Aegean Sea. The famous Battle of Salamis started. In this battle, Greeks utilized all their big and strong ships with all the efficient swordsmen taking the complete charge by leading from the front. ‘Hold nothing back. Seize your Glory.’ The Greek swordsmen jumped into the Persian ships to kill down all the Persian soldiers. ‘I am not here as a witness.’ Artemisia and her soldiers started counter-attacking in an efficient manner. The Greek Military General had a deadly sword fight on a one-to-one basis with the dangerous Persian Military General. Which military force won the 1^st leg of the Battle of Salamis? Did Queen Gorgo participated in the Battle of Salamis with her Spartan Military forces to fulfil her hubby’s dream which he dreamt with his 300 Spartan Soldiers about the  “300 – RISE OF AN EMPIRE”.
