Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Hearing these words, the new citizens no longer complained, their eyes were bright, and they all said: they will take the lead in complying with the new military law!

Sesta and Adrianx had heard before that the Davos mercenary had a large number of military methods. The reason why the soldiers have strong execution is closely related to the strict requirements of this military law.At that time, they were still curious: a small mercenary actually developed a unique military law for himself, and now finally has the opportunity to experience it for himself!

For the old citizens of Cornelius, the ferocity of mercenaries has only been seen once in front of the temple, and the annihilation of the Lucanian tribal coalition and the break of the city of Amendola are all heard.Amendolara has fought wars with Turiri many times before. Of course, there are some established military rules in the city-states to ensure the smooth progress of military operations, but it is the first time I have heard that a complete military law is specifically formulated.

Therefore, Cornelius reminded: "I hope that military training will not affect the daily labor of citizens."

"I believe that Felix will coordinate the relationship between the two." Daphes has full confidence in Philius.Then he smiled and said to the captains: "The military officer Felix must have some training instructors and other subordinates. You can discuss with him."

As soon as the words fell, dozens of people came over, competing to recommend themselves, making Felius tired.

Although these team officers are not good at literacy and numeracy, the viable army is their own business. As a new citizen of Amendora, they also have a strong desire to show their abilities to the people.

"It seems that they are also anxious to contribute to the city-state!" Davers said with emotion.

Cornelius nodded at the surface, but thought in his heart: These new citizens who are used to fighting on the battlefield really can't rest, I hope they can abide by the laws of the city-state!

"The main public office of the city-state is for the time being." Deverus' words made Cornelius relieved. Each new position proposed by the new consul was an impact on the tradition of Amendolara. Ernerus was tangled in his heart.

"Now there is a very important thing that needs to be solved by all the elders and team officers of our senate." The serious expression of Dave Si made Cornelius nervous again.

"That's the problem of resettlement and land allocation for our new citizens." As soon as the words came out, the team officers immediately stopped entanglement with Philius, and everyone stared at Davos in front.

"In order to maintain the harmony and stability of the city-state, and not to disturb the people who have just been released from the detention of the Lukanians, tonight and tonight, our respectable new citizens still volunteer to set up tents and live in the square. (In fact, it is a strict request from Daveus), but this is not a long-term plan, and it does not make sense! After all, the new citizens are fighting hard to protect this land. Many of their comrades are killed in the battlefield. In exchange for the tranquility of Amendolara today!” Speaking of which, Davers was a little emotional: “We must settle them down as soon as possible and allocate the land they deserve in order to repay their devotion and deserve as citizens Rights! Otherwise, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no problems if you delay!"

The words of Davers made the new citizens present excited, while the old citizens looked dignified.

"Now, how many widows have lost their husbands among the people of Amendolara?" Daphes asked Cornelius.

"I'm afraid it's more than a thousand, and the specific number will only be known after statistics." Cornelius said, looking at Rafaias.

The new registrar Rafias immediately said: "When the meeting is over, I will go to the statistics immediately."

"Then tomorrow morning, please call them all to the square. Team officers, you will also gather the unmarried fighters to the square. The two sides meet each other. No elder arrangements, no forceful forcible, and rely on your own ability. And charm, men and women voluntarily combine. In addition, unmarried girls in the city of Amendola, I suggest to also go to the square to participate in this meeting." Davers finished, Cornelus these old citizens are okay On the way to come, Davers confided this idea to them, and finally convinced them.

The new citizens exploded.It is important to know that apart from a very small number of mercenaries who have been married, there are still a few who have robbed local women in Persia and forced them to be their wives. The remaining two thousand people are still single.Under the leadership of Davos, not only did these mercenaries become city-state citizens, but now they also have to solve their single problem. This is a great thing!Because these women with city-state status are not free citizens or bought concubines. When they marry them, they also obtain the land and wealth left by their ex-husbands.

"Great! My brothers are hopeful this time!"

"Don't be happy, Matonis. If your men are like you, it's a little harder to find a wife! If you want women to be fancy, you don't have to be strong!"

"Isn't it good to grow strong? At least it can give them more protection and can do more farm work. I think they need it most now! And Oliver, if you dare to go to the square tomorrow, you are not afraid of the Persian girl. Ignore you."

"Sironimus, you wood, you have to talk more to women this time. This is not only related to your happiness, but also to give your men a good head!"

"Georgis, why don't you talk. You don't have to be nervous. You can do it as you wish when you arrive at the square tomorrow. Aphrodite will always arrange a woman for you!"

"Captain Hilos, don't just care about me, you must settle your marriage first!"

...

Daveus smiled at the men talking excitedly.

These old citizens of Cornelius are somewhat helpless: the women of the original Greek city-state citizens are very traditional. They usually seldom show their heads and cannot meet alone with strange men. The marriage is designated by the parents.The husband is not a citizen of this city-state or a citizen of a neighboring city-state. After marriage, he is governed by her husband. Her responsibilities are to have children and take care of housework.If the husband dies prematurely and the child is okay, and the property is under the child’s name, she can manage it on her behalf, raise the child and grow up, and will be controlled by the child in the future.There are no children, so the husband’s family has reason to sweep them out and let her remarry...

Amendolara originally had about 4,000 citizens of the city-state, but now fewer than 500 people. It lacks sufficient power to defend the city-state and lacks sufficient labor to support so many women, children and the elderly.Cornelius actively agreed to accept mercenaries as city-state citizens, mainly for this reason, and of course there are also factors for gratitude.Similarly, it is helpless for women to break the Greek city-state tradition and make public appearances for such large-scale meeting of men and women.After all, it is the best way to quickly settle down this group of soldiers full of grief and quickly integrate into Amendolara to become a real Amendolara citizen.

"At the same time, I also want to remind you. When you marry the selected woman, you should treat your former child as your own child and raise it up well; you also need to be your own elderly. Elderly, take good care of it; and... well...the humiliation they received from the Lucanias, I hope you don’t blame her, because that’s not their fault! It’s the men of Amendora who didn’t do it. Responsibility to protect them! We are true Greek warriors, what we have to do is to take good care of them, and never let them suffer such humiliation again! Then prepare carefully until one day they will enter Lucaria, so that the indigenous people Taste the power of the men of Amenorara!" Daveus said solemnly.

"That's right, leader!"

"Kill the Lucalia!"

"You can rest assured that we will take good care of women, old people and children!"

...

The new citizens clamored and made promises.

The old citizens felt that everything Daphus said was like a whip, which made his face hurt.

"When tomorrow's meeting is over, after each couple is determined, I suggest choosing a good day and holding a grand collective wedding. All the men and women who have established relationships include those robbed in Persia before, and of course my wedding is also together. Hold!"

The venue immediately became lively again.

"Leader Davos, you finally decided to marry Christoya!"

"It's really enviable, what a good woman Christopher is!"

...

Deverus ignored these people's coaxing and asked Cornelius: "Do we have Hera's priest?"

"No, Amendolara enshrines Zeus. The closest temple to Hera is in Metapontum."

"Send someone to Metapontum, invite Hera's priests to preside over this grand wedding for us, and bless the new people!

Although Hera is the patron saint of marriage, Hera priests are not required in the traditional marriage ceremony of the Greek city-state, so Cornelius is puzzled.

Daveus looked at him and said, "Because this wedding means the rebirth of Amendolara, I hope that the Great God Hera will bless these new people who represent the future of Amendolara! And I remember that the governor has a supervised sacrifice. Yi and the right to make festivals."

Cornelius wanted to say: that was the power held by the consul at the end of the king's era.In the current democratic era, the right to supervise ceremonies and make festivals has long been vested in the Senate.

However, before Davers had obtained many rights that were stipulated by the former Amendola Lars, he was numb. Under the sharp gaze of Daves, he nodded and said, "Yes." This nod meant As the lifelong governor of Daphes took Amendolara's most sacred religious supervision right from the Senate.
