Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

When Cornelius was led into the senate by the soldiers, he was both excited and anxious.

Since Amendolara was occupied by the Lucania, the life of Cornelius in the past six months has been as if in hell: during the day, under the care of the Lucaria, the cattle and sheep were grazed, the trees were cut, and the materials were moved. Slack, lightly insulted, heavy on sticks, and not even given meals; at night, detained with Zeus in the Temple of Zeus. Although the temple is large, thousands of people crowded together, eating and drinking Lhasa, all in Inside, the air is dirty, the space is small, and children are often noisy and adults cry, and they can’t sleep well at night. The harsh environment can be imagined; at the same time, the Lukanians only give them half full every day, making them The body is weak and people continue to fall ill.

During the long period of imprisonment, Cornelius, like everyone else, was exhausted in both physical and spiritual resistance. He accepted his fate and felt that he would live so numb until he quietly returned to the underworld... …

But yesterday, they were gathered together urgently, preparing to pack cars, loading things, and were busy until night. Even the fierce Lukalia people themselves, from their panic expressions, Cornelius felt something.

Sure enough, the Lucanian-speaking people quietly told them: He overheard what the Lucanians were talking about and said, "...What kind of Greek mercenaries have eliminated Grummentum's army", "Those Greeks are murderous beasts, terrible..." and so on.

This news cheered up the people of Amendolara. They saw the hope of getting out of trouble, so that in the middle of the night, many people tossed and turned to sleep, and then they heard the faint sound of fighting...

What happened?!!Sensitive Amendolara people got up and came to the door of the temple and looked out through the door slit: Lucanian's guard Zhang panicked and shouted in panic, letting the people in the temple hear clearly: " The Greeks have entered the city!"

The people were very excited, and the decisive consul Glatt Buffalo saw the guards leaving, seemingly to reinforce the enemy troops fighting down the mountain, and immediately organized citizens to fight back.The people of Amendolara, who hated the Lukarias, worked together to open the door, swarmed up, and knocked down the few remaining and non-competitive Lukania guards with stones and fists.

The people just came out of the temple, but somehow they encountered the Lukalia who were backed up (in fact, the Lucanian fighters were completely unable to resist the attack of the mercenaries, and Weisba thought of imprisonment in God The more than a thousand Greek people in the temple may be able to take hostages in exchange for the survival of their tribes). The defenseless and weak Amendola people are certainly not opponents of the Lukaria warriors, but they just broke through the cage. Another reinforcements is coming, and the Amendolalars full of anger and hope do not want to surrender.As a result, the ruling officer Glad Bavlo died in the first battle, and the strong and charged citizens were almost completely exhausted, and even the Lukarias could not control the bloodthirsty urge to prepare for the remaining When the shivering people of Amendola pulled down the killer, the Greek mercenaries arrived.

Right in front of the people of Amendola, these strong and burly soldiers showed their might and instantly surrendered the fallen flowers killed by the enemies who had just been vicious.

When these murderous soldiers walked to the people of Amendolara, the Amendolara could not help shaking.Unexpectedly, these soldiers lifted the weakened people with concern, and prepared a clean bed, delivered steaming wheat porridge, and the doctor carefully examined the body for them, healed the wounds, and entered the Elysee Paradise from hell!

Cornelius left tears of gratitude more than once, and he, like everyone else, began to inquire about the origins of this brave and caring team of fellow citizens.And those soldiers, doctors, women who bandaged wounds for them, women called "nurses" by soldiers, and slaves all told the Amendolara people about themselves, so Cornelius knew After: This Greek force came from Asia Minor, led by the Persian prince Cyrus, went deep into the Persian hinterland to fight against the Persian king's army, and then fought for thousands of miles, safely returned to Byzantium, accepted the employment of Turri In Greece, after the defeat of the battle led by the Turiris, the mercenaries and the Tarantum reinforcements singled out the girders to wipe out the Lukania tribal coalition, and then without repairs, they attacked Amendolara that night and rescued them...

The mercenary story is as legendary and fascinating as the epic Odyssey.What makes Cornelius feel even more amazing is the leader of the mercenary, Davos. According to the soldiers, this young leader was initially just an ordinary soldier, and there was no specificity. During the battle, he woke up after a dizziness. Not only did his personality change, but also his wisdom and wisdom, he solved many problems. The soldiers thought he was favored by Hades, the Hades, and he received apocalypse. , So he was elected as the leader, and Daveus lived up to expectations, and created one miracle after another: led the soldiers out of the encirclement and returned to Greece; and stood alone to accept Turi’s invitation; after the battle, everyone failed When he was pessimistic, he resolutely launched an attack on the powerful Lucanian coalition, annihilating the enemy with a disparate force, and created an almost impossible miracle; then after others thought that mercenary war was in urgent need of rest, he was An attack on Amendolara was launched again within a day...

Therefore, when the mercenaries told Cornelius that Chief Daveus wanted to see him, he was so impatient and eager to see the leader of such a unique army, respected and admired by the soldiers, Called the young leader of the "God Lord", "Son of Miracles", "Our Daveus".

Just entering the hall, a young man with a smile on his face hurriedly shouted, "Master Cornelus!"

Cornelius froze: "Are you?"

The guards of the guide said proudly: "This is our Davos leader!"

Although I learned from the mercenaries that Daveus was a young man, when he stood in front of him, Cornelius was surprised that he was too young, and so easy-going, not at all like his imaginary battle-hardened The mercenary leader was a bit out of order for a while.

And Davers is also looking at the veteran of the Amendola Lavatory: It is reported that his family was one of the city builders of Amendola Lala more than two hundred years ago, and has continued to this day. There have been countless consuls and veterans. It can be described as the famous gate of Amendolara. Although Cornelius himself is only a veteran, he is kind, helpful, and has a high reputation among the people, which is why Davis chose him first.Looking at this middle-aged man who has been punished by long-term detention, Davers asked with concern: "I heard that you were injured last night, don't you know better?"

Korperus stroked the bandage on his abdomen and said gratefully: "Much better! Much better! Your doctors are highly skilled! Chief Davos, thanks to your timely arrival last night, otherwise we would be all over !"

Daveus jumped in his heart and looked carefully at Cornelius. The sincere look did not seem to be false.Last night, when he learned that the Lucanians were in a fierce battle with the Amenorara people in the temple, he deliberately slowed down his offensive steps, causing most of the young citizens of Amenorara to die in battle. He was guilty. Hurry and say: "Well... Lord Cornelius, please come over today, there is news to tell you, we will leave soon."

Cornelius was taken aback: "Why?"

"Although the Lukarias were hit hard this time, they are huge in number and large in number. After all, I heard that Potentia was preparing to assist Grummentum, so Turriy hurriedly asked us to go back and help defend their city." Dave's serious expression seemed to be true.
