Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

The street roofs are full of people. They kindly shouted the names of their loved ones. They excitedly interacted with the advancing soldiers and proudly introduced their husbands or fathers in the ranks to the neighbors. Let each soldier There is a feeling of returning home.

Felixius, who was advancing, passed by his house and subconsciously looked over it, packed with people on the roof of his house. Isn't the young man who called and jumped just Melisanda!In the noisy crowd, he faintly could hear the call of Melisanda: "That's my father! That's my father! Father! Father!..." And beside him, Delia was looking at him , With a smile...

Philius smiled, this was a heartfelt smile...

The parade's army turned west, and there stood a huge arch made of white marble. This is what Davos called the Arc de Triomphe: the vault is the statue of the Goddess of Victory, and the lintel stone wall is carved according to Dafus's advice: annihilation The battle of the Lucanian tribal coalition, the night capture of Amendolara, the surprise attack on the Crotone army and the skillful selection of Niutum laid the picture of the battle established by the Dionysian city-state alliance so that future generations will remember it.However, due to time constraints, no good engraver has been found, and the arch is temporarily blank.

After crossing the Arc de Triomphe and heading west, the road gradually widened. At the end of the road was the newly-built square. Because the time was too tight, it was put into use without even having time to name it.

Lizam, who held up the flag, accelerated his pace, because he had vaguely seen dozens of white figures on the platform of the square. According to the previous command, he knew that he was the respected ruler Davis and the elders of the senate. Waiting for their arrival.

"They're here! They're here!..." Hernipolis shouted excitedly.

"Be quiet, son." Avinogis pressed on the restless Henripolis and said to Davers: "Adult, thank you for taking care of Hernipolis at this time!" Hernipolis After Si arrived in Turri, Davies did not arrange him in the hotel, but let him stay in his home.

"Hernipolis is very sensible! He also loves to study! His teacher Ancitas likes him very much! And after he came, my family was much more lively!" Daveus said with a smile.

In the past two days, Avignogis learned from Henripolis that Daveus took good care of his son. He is not a person who will be grateful to his mouth. He is determined to have a chance to return Dave in the future. Si's kindness, so the topic changed: "Master, your warriors are here!"

"They are not only the warriors of the alliance, but also the warriors of our alliance, guarding the safety of the entire alliance!" Daveus said with a smile.

Castellon’s chief general, Amiclis, nodded in agreement.As members of the Dionysian League, the top leaders of Castellon and Laos were of course invited to attend the ceremony, and they all happily participated.

At this moment, seeing the long dragons marching towards them neatly in the distance, they did not feel that the Dionysian Alliance was showing off their force, because the Dionysian Alliance, as the leader, was neither like the Delos Alliance. Athens disregarded the will of the allies, desperately exploited the allies and demanded tribute money. It did not interfere in the internal affairs of the allies like Sparta in the Peloponnesian League.As for the fact that sending troops to the war is an obligation of allied city-states, it is an expression of equality.Therefore, the stronger the Dionysian alliance, the safer they feel as an alliance.

Daveus looked at the team coming to the square, and his heart was imagining: the reason why he did not let the generals in the front as the previous Rome, but let the soldiers take the lead: first, to cultivate the honor of the soldiers Sense, and it also highlights the alliance’s concept of equality, so that the morale of the troops will be greatly improved; the second is to reduce the influence of the victorious generals on the people, so as to avoid some accidents in the long run, so he also put Felius in the team. The most inconspicuous middle position, and at the same time, several captains also enjoy the honor of riding a carriage, is also for this purpose.Even so, for the soldiers, this novel triumphant ceremony never held in the Greek city-state is a great honor.

The bronze trumpet sounded and the drums rang, and the soldiers began to enter the square.

"Oh, I can't believe it! It was Lizaru who was at the forefront!"

"Which Lizzaro?"

"Bagule, a famous hunter in their tribe!"

"Look! He actually walked at the forefront and in front of the Greeks. The Alliance really has no prejudice against us Lukalia!"

"Look! Look! Bagul! There is Bagul in the carriage! It's so enviable!!"

"When can I be like him?!!!"

...

Among the crowds on the side of the square, the Lucanias who came from Niutum, such as Xima, Uraza, and Hermon, shouted and shouted, dancing with excitement...

Of course, it was impossible for Bagul to see them among the crowds. The Mistress drove the carriage, and after a week of going around, he took him into the center of the square, but his majestic figure stirred up Lucaria like a big rock. The huge waves in the hearts of young people: a warrior should enjoy such glory like him!

When the sound of the drums ceased, the square was silent, and the soldiers looked up at the coalition governor standing on the platform ahead.

Daveus stepped forward and said aloud: "The warriors of the Alliance, in these long days of more than twenty days, you ran away from your loved ones, ran to the strange mountains, and fought fiercely against the fierce enemies, and captured Niutum At the same time, assisting the Allies to restore Laos and solve the problem that Turui has been attacked by enemies from the mountains for many years. The people thank you! The Elders Court thank you! The Alliance thank you! I and the Senate for your efforts and The most sacred thanks to the sacrifice!!" As he said, he took the lead with the elders behind him to bow solemnly to the soldiers ahead.

The square boiled instantly.

"Wan Sheng!"

"Wan Sheng!!"

"Wan Sheng!!!"

...

The soldiers shouted excitedly.

"It is precisely because of your efforts that the Dionysian Union was formally established! After the deliberations of the Senate, the triumphantly held today will be a festival of the entire Union and celebrate the birth of the Union! Waving above the square!"

"Alliance Wins! Alliance Wins! Alliance Wins!!!!!!"

Listening to the cheers of the soldiers and the people, Davers believes that the National Day and the national flag will unify the people from various Mediterranean city-states and ethnic groups under the alliance, and gradually form a new race, and add a lot of weight. !

………………………

In the afternoon, Davers hosted a banquet at the residence of Turriy in Tima Song, Zantiparis, Kriano, and Tolmed. Accompanying the banquet were Agacia, Philius, Siroimus.

Eating novel and delicious food, drinking mellow wine, recalling the scene of fighting together in the past, the atmosphere of the banquet was still warm.

At this moment, Kriano hiccupped and asked, "Daveus, look at your beautiful courtyard, and you are the consul, and what kind of army commander, it is really enviable... uh... When will we be like you?!"

The topic is here!Agassia immediately raised his spirit.

Daphes smiled and said right: "As long as you work hard to make your contribution to the alliance, become a citizen of the alliance, share land, and get a life like me, it is not a problem at all! In fact, it is better than me in the alliance. The rich are more..."

"Contribution? What kind of contribution?! I heard that it would take five years to become a full-time citizen of your alliance alone, not to mention being a veteran in a senate, it would be even more difficult!" Kriano Complained.

"Yes, the Union's laws are stipulated in this way, and all the Gentiles and free people are implemented in accordance with this, without exception!" Daveus said calmly but firmly.

"But--" Kriano pretended to be drunk, pointing at Agacia, and said aloud: "Uh... Agacia didn't tell us that way at Ephesus, he said,'As long as we come Greece will soon become a citizen and get land! Even become a veteran of the senate!' It is precisely because of his words that we came to such a far place, and now you tell me that it will take another five years to achieve all this, Isn’t this deceiving?! And I heard that the Lucaria soldiers in the triumphant form were slaves half a year ago, and they were already full citizens half a year later, and their leader became a veteran of the senate. Not as good as anyone?!!!"

The atmosphere in the living room suddenly solidified.

Agassia clenched his fists angrily, and he said something inspiring in order to attract Timmasong to them, but Kriano did not exaggerate so much.He wanted to refute, but under such circumstances, it would undoubtedly make the scene more rigid.

Agassia was hesitating, and Felicius was about to stop, and Hironimos frowned, looking at Daphes.On this side, Timmasong, Zantiparis, and Tolmed didn't seem to hear anything. They continued to eat food, but secretly raised their ears...

Davies still had the same expression, cast a comforting look on Agassia, and said slowly: "Kriano, don't worry, sit down and listen to me tell you..."

Kriano made a fire, but it seemed to hit a wet cotton cloth, and it didn't seem to work...

He sat down sadly.

"To be honest, why do some people take five years, and some people only need half a year? It is all in the interest!" Daveus looked at these mercenary leaders and said seriously: "Because the Lucaria can help The Union calmed Nyutum and even helped the Union to conquer more of the territory of Lucania, not to mention that they had already made a lot of contributions to the Union before. The avenues you took by car were repaired by them, Croto They helped defeat the internal army. They also actively studied Greek and understood and obeyed the laws of the alliance. For such a group of interracial people who are willing to join the alliance and can bring great benefits to the alliance, the senate should of course grant them citizenship in advance. And the people did not have any objections, because they all knew that the alliance got much more than it paid!

There is nothing wrong with Agassia. Although you are not as indigenous as the Lukarias, you are good at fighting. In the future, the Alliance will not have fewer wars. As long as you win the war repeatedly, let the Senate look To your value, it is not a problem to become a citizen a few years in advance!"
