Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

459 Preparations before the war (1)

Therefore, Kunogolata can only smile with a bitter smile: "It's just used to be used to, but I really need to pay attention to it in the future!"

Cornelius nodded sympathetically.

At this time, the business officer Mariji and the priest Plessinas, the head priest of the Temple of Hades, came forward.Compared with those before, both of them are smiling.

Kunogolata has always suspected that the "Daveus as king" was caused by the two of them.

Is it time to start talking about merit awards?Thinking in disgust in his heart, he couldn't help but stabbed: "When the people of the entire Union are worried about national security, the two are in a good mood."

Mariji kept his smile unchanged, looked at Kunogolata playfully, and lowered his voice, pretending to say mysteriously: "Of course I am in a good mood, because His Majesty Davis promised me...

He deliberately prolonged his voice, causing Kunogolata to subconsciously ask, "What do you promise?"

Mariji immediately said aloud: "Your Majesty promised me that the blockade of the Syracuse Fleet against the port of Turij will soon be broken, and the trade at the port of Turij will be restored! ... What do you think there will be Is it? Lord Kunogolata."

Kunogolata coughed twice, and was ready to change the subject to cover up the embarrassment on his face. Cornelius had exclaimed: "Big Dave... His Majesty Dave is going to launch the Syracuse naval battle?!"

"Of course! Tomorrow morning, the Temple of Hades will divination and pray for this battle!" Plesinas responded complacently.

Kunogolata and Cornelius looked at each other, their faces surprised.

"Go ahead, Your Majesty the King is waiting to announce this to you!" Marigi said with a smile on his face.

The two had no time to say goodbye and hurried forward.

"See, some people clearly know that the political situation of the alliance is different from the past, but they do not want to admit it, which is really sad!" Mariji sneered.

Plessinas had always felt guilty about Kunogolata, so he did not want to continue to be entangled in this topic, but asked: "Your Majesty just talked about how to expand the influence of Hades and enhance the prestige of the king. Suggestion, there are some things that I haven’t fully understood yet. Master Mariji, you are more familiar with Persia, can you tell me how the Persian royal family proclaimed their supreme god Ahura Maz in the land of aliens? How about it?"

Mariji touched his beard and said complacently, "You can be the right person. I know the Persian royal family well. You know, when Cyrus established a great empire, He did not interfere with the beliefs of the aliens because he did not vigorously promote the great gods of Persia. He was busy fighting. Until Darius became king, although he claimed to have the holy blood of Cyrus, He also married the daughter of Cyrus, but he felt that the throne he inherited from the great king Cyrus still lacked persuasion to those Persian patriarchs. At this time, he thought of Ahu, who has always been believed by the Persians La Mazda..."

………………………………

Just as Mariji talked to Plycines about the Persian religion, Kunogolata they met head-on to the first legion of the first legion, Antonios, and the head of the second legion. Amintas, the former head of the army-the current military officer Capus (the power of the original military officer was divided into three by Daveus, each has different aspects of control, and does not interfere with each other. In fact, in the eyes of the soldiers, they also It seems that there is no obvious difference in price, but in order to facilitate management, Davers positions the military officer appointed by the personnel to a higher level so as to be able to coordinate the affairs of the military department.), Navy Commander Sekerian.

These four are now representing the entire military power of Dionyssia in Turi, all appearing here, it seems that Davos really has a big military operation soon!Kunogola and Cornelius glanced at each other.

The four were in a hurry, and they simply greeted the two of them and hurried to complete the task that Daveus explained.

"Master Capps, you must quickly return the 3,000 sailors who were transferred away, otherwise the joint training will not proceed smoothly in a while!" Seckrian urged.

"Relax, they are all intact! I'm going to South City now and take the sailors stationed there to the Krati Naval Base." Capps comforted him.

Seckrian relaxed slightly.

"Capps, you said... Well, your majesty asked you to call another 7,000 people in the port, and it must be a young man who has undergone our military training for more than a year. Are there so many free people in the port that meet this condition?" Antonio Si asked with concern.

"There shouldn't be so many, but you can go to Amendolara and Bisinia to see. It's not enough. You can also recruit people from the transportation brigade responsible for logistics..." Kapus obviously considered this issue.

"Now there are enemies everywhere in the Union, and the army is shared everywhere. The strength is used to the extreme. The territory is very empty! It is necessary to break the deadlock as soon as possible and regroup the troops is the most important issue!" Antonios worried Said.

"The crux of the matter is Daphes... Your Majesty the King will first have a decisive battle with Syracuse at sea. Was this decisive battle too risky?!" Amintas interjected, he gave it to Devers before The order is still a bit contradictory: "The Navy of Syracuse has fought against Carthage for so many years. It can be said that the naval warfare is rich in experience and the number is much more than ours! Our fleet has just been assembled for a long time, and we have never really fought once. With the addition of a wooden bridge on this ship, they dared to fight hard with the Syracuse, and also let our soldiers all go to the warship... well, in case... in case of failure, they even have the opportunity to escape No, this is Dionysia's elite army!"

"Admiral Amintas, what's that is just a wooden bridge on the ship! You don't know how much this has changed, and how much the navy's tactics have changed!" Seclion immediately said dissatisfiedly: " Even if you have rich combat experience, it is only on land. If you don’t understand naval warfare, don’t talk nonsense!”

Amintas got angry when he heard it: "Dare you dare to get angry with me! You don't have to look at what you have done, what are you qualified to stand here and talk to me about naval battle!"

"Tomorrow! I will show you a victory!" Seckrian replied without showing any weakness.

"Don't be noisy!" Antonius yelled loudly. He glared at Seckrian. He didn't like this young man's arrogant tone, but he was now the navy commander that Davos relied on: "When is it all? Have a quarrel, and let the soldiers read the joke! Hurry up and assemble your troops to the naval base. After your majesty arrives for a while, seeing that we have not started training yet, I am afraid everyone will be trained!"

Amintas looked at the soldiers who were looking around them curiously, suppressing the fire in his chest: "Young people, don't just talk, let's talk with the record!"

"You will see tomorrow!" Seckrian finished angrily, then turned and strode forward. He suddenly realized that he was arguing with Amintas in the army barracks. In case of conflict, it would be too bad for himself. , Or hurry back to the naval base, where it is up to you.

"Antonius, Amintas, don't worry, follow Davies... Your Majesty the King has been fighting for so many years, don't you understand his command style! Without great assurance, how could he be with Syracuse at sea? People have a decisive battle!" Capps reminded them.

"But that's all on land. No one has experienced combat at sea, although we have been training with the navy. The new tactics that Sekerian said have not been tested by actual combat after all, who knows that in the vast At sea, if you encounter a huge fleet of enemies, will this tactic work?! Our first and second legions of soldiers... The most important thing is that even Your Majesty himself must board the warship, in case-"Antonio Speaking of here, Karma stopped, and he dared not think about the consequences of his defeat.

His worries also infected other generals.

"Okay, don't worry, your majesty has Hades' blessing, it won't be a problem! Let's hurry up and execute his orders." Capps said reluctantly.

………………………………

At the same time as the generals were arguing, Davers spoke to the elders of Bulti, Barchiripi and Sedorum in the big tent.

"The two adults came just right, and I was just about to send someone to invite you." Daveus smiled and invited the two to sit down.

"Your Majesty, Sedorum and I are here to ask for sin!" Barchiripi stood up again and said: "Petaru they had some weird behavior before the rebellion, but we did not draw attention, and the result... …Then let them escape back to Bruty smoothly, confusing the ethnic rebellion..."

"However, Your Majesty, Barchi Lipi and I can assure you that only a handful of Bluti people are rebelling, and most of the Bluti people are loyal to the Alliance! There will never be a big one in the Bluti region. Turmoil and confusion!" Sedorum took the words of Bakiripi and solemnly promised Davis.

"Yes, we can swear to Amara!" Basilipi emphasized again.

Davos watched these two veterans who were slightly haggard, and apparently the rebellion of Petalu and other veterans Bruti put them under great pressure.After a moment, Davers took his gaze and said sincerely: "You can rest assured that although Petaru's rebellion has caused people in other cities to have some suspicions about the people of Bruti, I think the elders of the Senate, including me , Are very clear!

"Admiral Bakiripi, the first brigade of the Fifth Legion composed of citizens of Bisinia. In the battle of the Ramato River, in order to cover the retreat of the large forces, he actively took the initiative to stay behind to block the enemy. In the end, he was either killed or captured. It guarantees that most soldiers of the 4th and 5th Legion will be able to retreat smoothly. To date, the captain of the 1st brigade, the veteran of the veteran's house, Briem and some Bisinian soldiers are still detained in the Siracusa camp. Such a hero None of them are the most loyal citizens of Dionysia, who else can be!"

After listening to Daveus, Bakiripi burst into tears, not only because of the huge sacrifices made by the Bisinians in this war and the grievances finally understood by Daveus, but also because he was worried about being captured The safety of their people.
