Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Originally he only planned to take a chance between Amendolara and Turiy, looting.But the spy replied: The residents of Amendorala carrying a lot of weight are preparing to leave the city.

How could the Vespas and the tribes pass this good opportunity, immediately catch up, kill them, and seize the opportunity to occupy the city of Amendolara.For Weisbah, this is really the blessing of Mount Asinu!The tribe won easily, not only seized a lot of materials, but also occupied a city, but also a mountain city that the Lucania people like to live, and also had a large number of "slaves".

But soon he realized that it was quite difficult to occupy a city with his tribe of more than a thousand fighters: first he scored hundreds of fighters to take care of the thousands of captives, and then he had to guard against the Turuis The most troublesome thing to recapture the city of Amendola is Grummentum.After all, the Vespa tribe was reluctant to accept the annexation of Grummentum, and now, while the Lucanian tribal alliance is fighting bloody and victory with Turui in the front, it has no effort to obtain what should belong to The results of Grummentum, ask how Grummentum's chief leader Akpiru can spare them!But let Vespa give up Amendolara, and flee back to the mountains again, and have tasted the ease that he and his people have suffered from the turbulence and displacement.

Just as he was hesitant, a few days later, a good news came: the Allied forces of Lucania preparing to besiege the city of Turiri, a plague broke out and they were forced to withdraw their troops.

Weissba was overjoyed, and even claimed to praise the god Asinu.

In the following months, Turrii did not send troops to recapture the city of Amendola because of his greatly reduced strength.It was rare for Weisba to lead the clan for a period of stability.

By this spring, the emissary of Grummentum, over the mountains, came to the city of Amendola, and brought the command of Akpiru: to force him to join the Lucanian coalition in preparation for the second attack map Rie.

Weisba promised, but sneered in his heart, because the messenger didn't even mention the issue of the city of Amendola after the war.

He now wants to understand that if he wants to keep the city of Amendola, he can only hope that the Lucanian coalition and Turi will lose both sides. Only in this way can his tribe get a chance of survival in the cracks and have time to take advantage of it slowly. And integrate the power of Amendolara to restore the tribe's vitality.Therefore, when he knew that mercenaries had continued to arrive in Turri's territory, he was not worried, but rather happy.

He restrained the tribes and tried to leave the city as little as possible, not to stimulate Turi, but to let the Greeks prepare for the war.

Today the spies reported: A Greek army of about 100 people invaded the territory of Amendola.

He was quite surprised: this is the first time since the war last year that a Greek army appeared in Amendolara. Did he come to attack the city?Why are there only more than one hundred people?Is it a pioneer?Ignoring the threat of pressure from the Lucanian coalition forces, Turiri wants to resolve their worries first?After careful observation over the past few months, this is not like the practice of the Turi people?!

With many doubts, Weissba stepped on the city wall and watched down the hill: More than a hundred Greek soldiers stood alone by the Sisno River, and had not moved for a long time, and there was no movement behind them.

It's here to investigate the situation!Weisba was a little sure.

So he decided to show his strength to dispel the Greek illusions.He let his son Bagul lead a thousand soldiers out of the city, leaving only more than a hundred soldiers to guard the captives in the city.

Bagul led the Lucanian fighters through the city gate.

Yasisters could not help shouting: "Boss, look at their weapons!"

Armor, buckler, and bayonet are all dressed up by the Greek heavy infantry. No wonder Yasisters was surprised, thinking that Amendola was taken back by which Greek army!

Daveus took a closer look and smiled, "It should be the Lucanians who robbed the citizens of Amendolara and equipped themselves. It's a pity, it's just like it, it's still far from the real heavy infantry."

Indeed, the Greek heavy infantry array is tight. Before the battle, it moves slowly and can basically maintain a straight line.Looking at the other Lucalia fighters on the opposite side, the formation is not only loose, but also uneven.

The guide saw Lucanian soldiers out of the city, and his heart was extremely tense. Seeing that Davers was still in a joke, he almost scolded.

Only then did Daveus say: "Retreat, go back!"

If the guide is forgiven, the horse will run.

The soldiers turned backwards in unison, and then began to jog.

Dave Sler remained motionless until the soldiers dumped him behind him, and he did nothing with Yasisters and Ledes, which made the guide a little awkward.

The Greeks retreated slowly, and the Lucanias pursued slowly. The two sides kept a certain distance.

Until Daphes crossed the Saraceno River, the Lucania talent stopped on the north bank.

"One thousand... one thousand people..." Daveus asked thoughtfully: "Axi, do you think the Lucania in Amendolara want to fight us or not?"

"Of course I don't want to, just look at their pursuit posture." Yasistus said without thinking.

"I heard Burcos said that there are not too many Lukanians in Amendoralari, how many are there?" Dave asked the guide.

"There is such a saying in Turiri, but no one seems to know how many Lukanians are in Amendolara." The guide was puzzled.

Daveus smiled mysteriously and turned to the topic: "What is north of Amendola?"

Returning to Turri’s land, the guide has become more relaxed: “Twenty miles to the north is the Sene River, and further to the north is the Agri River. On the other side is the city of Heraclea, where is Serris. The plain is also a fertile land. A few decades ago, Turiri and Tarantum also fought for the land, and there were wars."

"Who won?" Yasisters asked curiously.

"We Turiyi won twice, but Tarantum is a powerful city-state in Great Greece. They kept sending troops and the war lasted for a long time. Finally, the two parties signed an agreement to jointly establish the city of Heraclea." Said proudly.

"Oh, I really didn't expect Turiri to be quite powerful before," Yasister said smoothly.

"That was because Turri had General Kriendridas at the time, and he was a Spartan!" the guide said reverently, and then he thought of something, unwilling to sneer: "Even if Turri lost last time, The Lucanias were given to them because they ambushed Turii with tricks. If they fought head-on, they would not be Turii’s opponents.

Yasistus also wanted to argue, and was stopped by Daphes: ""It was still early, and we hurried to take a look south of Turriy."

The guide didn't understand the purpose of this young mercenary leader's hard work all day long.To the west and north, there are Lukanians who can understand that there are no enemies to the south.However, it also made him feel relieved that these mercenaries were so courageous that they were terrified and afraid of accidents.

Daveus and his party crossed the pontoon not far west of the city of Turiri and reached the delta between the two rivers.Here, they saw a pack-by-cart walking back and forth on a road leading to the west...

The guide told them: This is the delivery of copper ore and stone materials to the city of Turi. Recently, due to the war, stones and bronzes were urgently needed in the city.

"Is there a copper mine and a stone mine in Turri? To the west," Davies blinked as he looked at the uneven dirt road through the hills.

"Yeah. Lucanians can't get through the Koseni River." The very talkative guide didn't want to say much at the moment. He ended the conversation in a hurry and took them to the Krati River pontoon quickly. .

The Krati River is at least fifty meters, and because it is spring, the water flow is rapid, and the pontoon swings back and forth.Davies, they feared that the horse would fall into the water and had to lead the horse on foot.

After crossing the Krati River, the stepped on land is still part of the Subari Plain.This is a green flat corridor between mountains and the coast, and this corridor is significantly wider than the seaside corridor of Amendolara.Here, you can see more Turuis working in the farmland. Obviously for Turiri, this is now the only safe area.

About ten miles further south, the corridor suddenly narrowed, because there was a large area of ​​mudflat near the sea.

The guide stopped here and said, "The front is Castellon's territory. Do you still want to see it?"

Note: Castellon Castellione

Heraclea, Heraclea, the original site of this city was established by the Greek colonists before the city of Heraclea (Siris, similar to the name of the Roman Empire called the Han Dynasty), probably around 550 BC by Xu Bari Sri Lanka met with Metapontum to destroy.
