Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

"When did our Bruti people become so friendly to the Greeks! Are they afraid of them just because they are Dionysians!" Cannaru shouted angrily.For more than a year, although the Bruti people were relatively closed, they still knew something about the outside world. A strong city-state alliance suddenly emerged around Bruti, which really made the leaders of various tribes feel pressure. Young people like Karnham are not convinced: "We are wolves, but the Greeks are just sheep. Even if there are more sheep and fatter, they can't fight wolves!"

"Okay, Karam, don’t forget what your father said to you when he left, you must not want him to get angry and angry when he hears you again, and then deprive you of the rights you just got, and then pass it on Your brother." Another older man also persuaded.

Kanalu seemed to remember something, his face slightly changed, he turned around angrily, and gave Antaoris a vicious look before leaving.

Anta Oris was listening to the followers whispering to translate their conversation. I saw the old man came over and said mildly: "The messenger of Dionysia, my name is Barchiripi, one of Bisinia. Leader. His name is Brim, who is also the leader of Bisinia."

Anta Oris smiled and saluted, and reported his name.

"We will immediately send someone to inform Cosenza quickly of your arrival, and you will temporarily stay in the city of Bisinia to rest. Once the news of the entry comes, we will send someone to escort you to Cosenza."

………………………

The Bruti people sleep very simply, covered with animal fur, and sleep directly on the wooden floor around the fire pit.

After an afternoon of trekking and fright, Antaoris and his party were already exhausted physically and mentally, fell asleep after dinner, and soon fell asleep, snoring.

In the darkness, only one person still has his eyes open.

Among the three entourages in Antaolis, one of them was his most trusted slave, and he took care of his clothing, food, housing, and transportation along the way; and the other was the senate, because Antaoris did not understand the Brutish language. A specially translated translator Ade Pigis. He is a freeman registered in Dionysia. His mother is a Greek. He was taken away by the Bruti. He was pregnant after being abused and gave birth to him. Since childhood, he was Bruti. The slave of man has tasted the hardships of life, and finally took a chance to escape from the mountains of Bruti, and finally came to Turui, he has a deep hatred of the Bruti, but he is very forbearable; in the end this A follower who had not fallen asleep was recommended by Marigi to Antaoris, saying that he was a member of the military department. Considering that in the future there will be a war with the Bruti people, it is necessary to understand the situation inside the Bruti region. In fact, He is a reserve citizen of Dionysia, named Antrapolis, the younger brother of Dave's personal intelligence officer Aristilas.

Since Izam’s reconnaissance brigade followed Davers to Tarantum, Antrapolis was indeed performing his investigation duties in this regard. At this moment, he was trying to remember everything he saw during the day: from the picture The approximate time spent on the road from Riy to Bisinia, the difficulty of the road, the location and firmness of Bisinian city, the population of the city and the approximate number of soldiers The character of the Asian leader... wait.Antrapolis remembered it over and over again, until they were clearly engraved in his mind, and there were still some vague points to be confirmed by the next day.

After this was done, Antrapolis turned his attention to Antaoris, who was sleeping on the opposite side—this was another of his tasks.He will closely monitor and observe the performance of the newly arrived Crimean in the Senate in Cosenza.

It was not the first time that Antrapolis did such a thing. At the beginning, he resisted a bit. He said to his brother Aristilas: Sierraza’s former tyrant Sielong had created a secret agent system. He has a reputation for badly monitoring the private lives of city-state citizens, and he doesn’t want the Davies they depend on to become such people.

However, Aristila persuaded him: Sieron's reputation is not good, mainly because he is too authoritarian, excessively suspicious and oppressive citizens, so the public resentment.As a broad-minded, calm-minded lifelong consul, Davers knows how to protect the freedom of the people, and he should not make such mistakes. Moreover, his ability is outstanding. The rapid rise of the Dionysian Union has explained everything. Their brothers are optimistic about the best commander against Syracuse and the reconstruction of Katana.Therefore, consolidating his leadership position and preventing people with ulterior motives from messing with it have become one of Aristilas' important duties.

After being persuaded by his brother, Antrapolis had followed and investigated the movements of many elders.It should be said that the vast majority of veterans support and agree with the status of Dave’s life as a consul. Although a small number of people, such as Pollux, are dissatisfied with Dave, they only stay verbally and have no specifics. action.As for Anta Oris, Crimisa led him among the three people who entered the senate. After coming to Turri, in addition to attending the senate meeting, he stayed out of the weekdays and stayed out of contact with other elders, making Aristila Si is very curious. This mission is a good opportunity to learn about the Crimea, and also provide a reference for Davos to use and appoint senior officials in the future.At least from the current performance, although Antaoris is an aristocrat in Crimea, but can endure hardship and have courage, Antrapolis is looking forward to his next performance.

In the afternoon of the next day, a message was sent from Cosenza, and Anta Oliss and his party were allowed to enter Cosenza.

Barchiripi also sent ten fighters, nicknamed "escorts" Dionysian envoys to Cosenza.

A group of people went out of the city and started to travel west along the mountain road. They were stopped shortly afterwards.

Kanalu rode a horse and appeared in front of them, proudly saying, "Greek, I haven't entertained you yet, so I want to go like this!"

Anta Oris they felt nervous.

At this time, the Bruty warrior who was in charge of escort stepped forward to persuade Kanalu, but he was sent by his men to block: "Relax, I will not let you go back and cannot explain."

After he made a promise, his face sank, and his eyes were fierce: "Give me five whips! Let them know that the Greeks don't pay a price, but it is not so easy to pass my city of Bisinia! "

After he had finished, Anta Oris had no time to react, and they were swarmed by the Bruti fighters and fell to the ground.

Everyone was beaten down with five lashes, all of them fleshed out.Adpiggis was angry and scolded in Brute language.

Kanalu listened, but laughed and shouted, "Beat him three more whips!"

Adpiges still wanted to scold, Anta Orlis whispered: "Adpigis, don't forget what we are here to do!"

Adpigis heard a shock and slowly lowered his head.

Kanalu was bored to see that the Greeks had no response, and he did not dare to overdo it, so as not to find his father's anger, and shouted: "Cowardly Greek, go away." , Follow the road and go eastward.

The four of Antaoris supported each other and moved forward.

Although the terrain is getting higher and higher, the road is no longer rugged and difficult to walk. The rolling peaks gradually retreat to the sides. The front is gently rolling grass. The dense layers of flexible grass are dotted with colorful wildflowers, just like a vast, colorful The big carpet extends all the way into the distance... groups of cows and sheep, and horses or graze quietly on the slopes, or raise their four hooves, run and play, the little grass house is located in the middle, and some have risen Cooking smoke.

There were more people on the road, they drove cattle and sheep, carried goods, appeared in various places on the slope, and moved in the same direction.

In the evening, through the moonlight, Anta Oris saw a huge black shadow standing in front of him, and he knew that Cosenza had arrived.

Since the time to enter the city has passed, Antaoris and his party can only spend the night in a tent outside the city.

Early the next morning, the escorted Bruty soldiers immediately notified the city.

Soon, Antaoris and his party were welcomed by the guards sent by the Horde Alliance and invited to enter the city of Cosenza.

After having breakfast, Antaoris was taken to Cosenza’s parliamentary hall, which is much more magnificent than the thatched cottage in Sinia.

There is one person in the middle, three people on each side, and the seat in the center is obviously higher. It seems that the primary and secondary have been separated.

Antaoris thought about the news that the tribes of Bruti formed a tribal alliance under the leadership of the chief of Cosenza, and bowed respectfully: "Respected chiefs, I am the messenger of Dionysia Anta Oris, brought greetings from the Dionysian House!"

Before waiting for the translation by Adpigis, the man said in Greek: "Messenger of Dionysia, welcome to Cosenza, the center of the Bruti Tribal Union. I am the chief of the entire Tribal Union. Pian Lun."

His voice had just dropped, and the person closest to the bottom of his left stood up and asked in Greek: "Bruti has not been in contact with Dionia. I don't know what the messenger was for this time?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone else in the meeting hall focused on Antaoris.

Anta Oris didn't expect that the Bruti people put the question on the table as soon as they met. He didn't answer immediately and turned to ask: "Are you?"

"The chieftain of Vigor City, Sedorum, is also the elder of the Horde Alliance." Sedorum is the only one of several chiefs who has had an intersection with Dionia.A year ago, when the Lucania alliance attacked Turiri, he led the clan to attack the camp of the mercenary leader and now the Dionysian Davos. Later, Davis designed to encircle and kill Lukani. The Allied Forces of Asia made Sedorum seize the opportunity and defected from the Lucanian Union. Later, due to the proximity of Vigo City to Laos, the unrest in Laos City, the authority of Avinojis, Laos joined Dai The Union of Onia... A series of events happened one after another like a walking light, he knew something about it.Therefore, although he has not seen Davis and has not dealt directly with Dionyssia, he is wary of Daphes and Dionys.So when he heard that Dionysia sent his envoy, Sedorum warned others to act with caution, because now Dionysia's strength has obviously surpassed Bruty.
