Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Chapter 30 General Assembly

Although Davers first became military, he also saw that this formation was mainly to prevent the Persians from assaulting and protect the weight. Marching with such a wide front, the speed must not be fast. Under the persian persecution, this is also a helpless move. .

Several people gathered around to look at the rough sketches on the ground.

Tima Song pointed to the two squares in the forefront and said: "Keli Thorps is a Spartan, and the soldiers under him are all Lasidi dreamers. They have rich combat experience and they serve as forwards. The whole army opens the way, I think everyone will be at ease."

There is no objection to this proposal.

"Second..." Tima Song wondered where his barracks should be responsible.

"Secondly, I am the youngest, and I am willing to be the rear of the whole army!" Daveus said excitedly first.

Felixius was agitated and thought: After finishing, Daphes forgot to discuss the good things in advance, and also actively asked to be a guard. Sure enough, he was still young and inexperienced!

In full view, Philius did not dare to make a big move, so he had to keep his eyes on Daveus.

But listening to Tima Song said in surprise: "You...you want the queen?! No! No!" He shook his head again and again: "The defender is very important, you must have a lot of experience to face all kinds of complex situations. Well, it will drag down the whole army, I think it is still... let us be the guard of the barracks."

When Tima Song just finished speaking, Davers answered: "Isn't there a guard, I would like to be with you!"

"No!!" Timmasong thought and refused loudly: "Kriano, come with me to the prince!" He directly designated his comrades who fought alongside him.

Kriano had a good relationship with Timmasong, so he nodded.

The choice of the defender was decided so quickly.Philius did not understand at this moment that Davis had deliberately set traps to lure Timmasong to take the bait, and he was not worthy of being an adjutant.

The gap between the eyebrows of Kleethorpes was deeper. He did not appreciate the little tricks played by Davers, but he was more disgusted, but he knew that Timmasong’s choice was right, so he simply opposed Daves Said: "Your barracks are responsible for protecting the left wing." Since the mercenaries are marching north along the Tigris River, the left wing is most often close to the river bank and should be the least in danger.

Daveus saw the unabashed contempt in the eyes of Kerry Thorps. He secretly squeezed his fist and nodded in agreement.

Then, Kleethorpes proposed that Zantiparis join him as the forward.

Also unwilling was Sironimus, and they also considered that the original adjutant of the Proccinus Barracks was Agathia, and now the elected leader was replaced by squadron leader Sironimus Sri Lanka, but he was the last one to arrive, indicating that the soldiers in this barracks have a big dispute about who should be the leader. For the sake of insurance, let the barracks be the right wing.

After the leaders have completed the military discussion, it is time to hold a military meeting.

This is not only a rally for the new leader's public appearance, but also a good opportunity to unify the soldiers' minds, so Krithorpes reminds everyone to talk more about encouraging morale.

When making requests to the leaders, his eyes stayed more on Davers. He was not at ease with this too young leader. Know that it was a gathering of tens of thousands of people. Most people are in such a big scene. It’s estimated that even the tense words can’t be spoken. In case Davos messed it up, this elaborate oath meeting will be turned into a farce!

So he proposed to Daphes that he could let the adjutant Felicius speak on his behalf.

But Davers insisted on going in person.

Kleethorpes looked very unsightly, but he couldn't help Daveus to attend, because he was the new leader unanimously elected by the Mennon Barracks, with 1,500 soldiers under his command, accounting for about the entire army. One in nine.So he placed Davers in second place. If Davers performed badly, he would be compensated by the leader behind him.

……………………………………

It was the end of August, late summer, and the afternoon weather was no longer so hot.

A wooden platform was erected in the center of the Tima Song Barracks (formerly Clearkus Barracks). The surrounding tents have been cleared and a large area has been vacated and occupied by soldiers from various mercenary camps. Sit, chat with each other and complain...

The whole venue was crowded and noisy...

Under the guard of heavily armed soldiers, Kirithops and his party squeezed a passage from the crowd to the wooden platform.

Kerry Thorps came to power first.

There was a commotion among the soldiers.

Due to the deliberately low-key Kerry Thorps before, most ordinary soldiers did not know who he was. It was very surprised to see a stranger first on stage, and asked each other his name.

A dozen loud-sounding soldiers stood around the wooden platform. They were responsible for repeating the speaker's speech so that thousands of soldiers under the stage could hear it.

Krithops said, "Brothers from all over Greece, I am Spartan's Ombudsman Krithops!"

After the retransmission of the soldiers on the wooden platform, the soldiers under the stage were in an uproar. The shock in their hearts was greater than when Davis first heard the news: Spartan soldiers have passed one battle after another for centuries. Let the Greeks of other city-states be overwhelmed by their bravery and strength.Today, Sparta has become the hegemon of the Greek world, dominating the Mediterranean.The Spartan Ombudsman was among them ordinary freemen. How could they not excite and invigorate them? The soldiers who were panicked by the murder of the leader suddenly felt dependent, and their panic faces began to have After getting scared, I have a few curiosities to pay attention to things other than survival: Why did the high-powered Spartan Ombudsman appear here?

So when Kerry Thorps asked them to keep quiet, the soldiers stopped the noise.

"Brothers, we are in a terrible situation now! Not only have we lost our long-standing and capable leaders, some squadron captains and soldiers; but our former ally Aliros and his men have also betrayed us! But, The more we are in such a critical situation, the sooner we must rejuvenate, bravely face the Persians who want to destroy us, never succumb, and use our Greeks' bravery and shield spears to defeat the enemy and kill one for ourselves. Go back to Greece! Zeus will be walking with the brave!!" Spartans really like to be brief and terrifying. Kerry Thorps just reminded everyone to say more inspiring words, but he himself just excited the soldiers. , Quickly ended the speech.

After Kleethorpes stepped down with Davers, he saw Davos smiling at him, thinking: okay, this young leader does not look nervous, but why did he bring a herald to power and let him Does he hold a dozen thin wooden sticks?

Yasisters also did not understand the purpose of Davis to let him follow him on stage with a wooden stick, but when he stood on the wooden platform, he could no longer think about it, because the audience was full of people in all directions, Densely extended to the distance... and the noise at the ear is far noisier than under the stage, as if the sea below is being blown by violent winds, and he and Daveus are lonely boats floating deep in the sea , There is always the danger of overturning.

Yasisters couldn't stop his legs from shaking, he even felt that he could collapse together with the wooden trembling platform under his feet at any time...

"Oh! Oh! Look! Who is this?!"

"A little guy whose hair hasn't even grown! This is not where you should come! Get down, go home and drink mother's milk! Hahaha..."

"Wouldn't this be the new leader elected by any barracks?! Are they crazy!!"

………

The sound of laughter and questioning was overwhelming.

Yasisters was frightened and took a few steps back, almost back to the edge of the wooden platform.What admired him was that Davis still stood steadily in the middle of the wooden platform...

The leaders of the audience also felt a little unbearable. They were dissatisfied with Daphes again. At the moment they faced thousands of soldiers, but they were one.

Tima Song complained: "If you knew this would happen, you shouldn't let him go up. This is simply hell!"

Others also agreed.

Xenophon said quickly: "Hurry up and ask the next leader to replace him."

Kerry Thorps had already regretted the previous decision, and Wen Yan also nodded his agreement.
