Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Chapter 494: Hernipolis' Decision

The anxiety of losing their homes hangs on the faces of adults, and they are talking about resentment against the Syracuses, the progress of this war, and their expectations and dissatisfaction with their army; the children regard the refuge as a play Place, play and play together...

When the street is too noisy, the people in the houses on both sides will come out to express their dissatisfaction.In most cases, the refugees on the street will heed the advice and temporarily restore peace.

At this time, some people will sigh: "If there is one own house in the city, how good it is, don't be afraid of the enemy's invasion!"

His words naturally stirred up some controversy.

Although the street was chaotic, it was still relatively clean, only a breeze blew, and the smell of urine came, and Duffston covered his nose and mouth and looked at Protsilaus.

Protsilaus said helplessly: "Your Majesty, we have arranged for the people to clean the streets every day according to the doctor's advice, and warned them that they must go to the river to pee and poop to prevent the disease, but those children..."

Since Protsilaus had already taken effective measures, Daveus would naturally not say anything.As they approached, the boring asylum-seekers found Davers and shouted excitedly: "It's Lord Davers!"

"Master Davis is here!"

...

The news that "Daveus became King of Dionysia" has been officially communicated to the subordinate cities by the Senate. It is just that the asylum-seekers in Crimea are worried about being trampled by their enemies. They have not paid much attention to it. Therefore, they still call their familiar titles.

At this moment, they stopped complaining and arguing, and poured into Daveus, and the guards immediately protected him.

"Master Davis, you are finally here. The Syracuse burned our village, and our home is gone!"

"Sir Daphes, when will you take the soldiers to drive away the ferocious aliens?! When will we return to our land?!"

"Sir Dapheus, my father died in the hands of those damn aliens, you must kill them to avenge us!"

...

The people seemed to finally see their parents' wanderers and confided to Davers the suffering and anger of this time.

The guards and Olivers saw that the surrounding people gathered more and more, fearing danger, and wanted to get rid of them. Daveus stopped their actions, then listened to their pain with a heavy expression, patiently comforted them, and made " Will definitely defeat the Syracuse and help them rebuild their homeland"

………………………………

Henipolis led more than a thousand Laos soldiers who were loyal to him out of the mountain road to the Lahe fortress. After meeting with the 3000 Lucanian reserve soldiers led by Bagul, he went south along the Lahe. He soon arrived outside Laos.

Here, Dalos's temporarily appointed Bruti region military chief Hilos has replaced the governor of the city of Vigo, Saru, and led more than 3,000 Bruti reserve soldiers to arrive one day earlier and set down the camp.

The meeting of the three forces brought the total strength of the Dionysia side to nearly 8,000.

Arobmas in the city got this news and frowned all day. He regretted that he had not decisively led his troops out of the city yesterday and first defeated the enemy from Bruti.At that time, he was worried. Although he gathered 5000 soldiers in Laos, he dealt with Dionya all year round. He knows the combat effectiveness of Dionyan soldiers unless he leads most of the troops. There is no confidence to beat each other.And if he did, he was worried about trouble in the city.

There have been rumors in Laos city in recent days. Civilians and slaves are very resentful to officials and tribal leaders. There have even been major conflicts.It was because the news of the "seasonal defeat of Syracuse" that had been blocked was also spread, which further encouraged their arrogance.Under such circumstances, how dare Arobmas deflect the main force from the city.Therefore, for today's plan, he can only change Laos' bad situation by holding on to the city of Laos and hoping that Syracuse can defeat Dionia on the land.

To this day, he can’t figure out how the powerful navy of Syracuse could be defeated by the Dionyan Fleet formed by the patchwork. Is it true that the Dionysian Dave Si was really blessed by the gods?!

The meeting of the three forces, due to Bakul’s modesty, the command of the entire force after the integration was handed over to the older military seniors and the trust of Daveus, the former chief of the Fourth Army Corps and the veteran of the veteran Silos. .

At this moment, in the newly built account, there are Hilos, Bagul and Genipolis, and Genipolis’ most trusted general commander, Eliandos, is negotiating.

In addition, there is a special person in the tent. He is the chief of the Davos intelligence department, Tratus, who was previously appointed by the general manager Aristilas. During this time, he has been responsible for the espionage of Laos on the west coast.

After Tratus introduced the actual turbulent situation in Laos city, it greatly inspired the confidence of Hilos and Bagulana Larus. After all, if Alobmus defended with all strength, 8,000 people wanted to capture The stone-made city guarded by 5000 people is simply impossible. As a rushed mixed force, they are not equipped with engineering battalions, let alone possess ballistas.

At this moment, Genpolis said a word that surprised everyone in the big tent.

"Master Henripolis." Hilos settled and asked, "Are you really going to do this?"

"Of course!" Hernipolis raised her head with hatred in her eyes: "When I became the ruling governor of Laos, I wanted to do this, but that group of greedy wolves would never give My chance to show it! But now—"Hernipolis sneered: "Since they have betrayed me, then I will let them taste what it means to betrayed by the people!"

For the rest of the day, the Dionysian army began to build siege equipment, and Tratus also contacted the men in the city through special methods.

……………………………

The next day, while Daveus led the army from Crimea and headed for the Neto River, Hilos also led the army to form an array outside Laos.

Looking at the enemies under the city like a wave of tide, the war flag hunting, the soldiers and generals of the Laos in the city are inevitably a little nervous. After all, they have been used to and heard of Dioni for many years under the wings of Dionia The bravery and constant victory of Asian soldiers.

Seeing this scene, Arobmas laughed: "The Dionysians are just scaring us, they dare not attack the city! The lives of the family of more than a thousand soldiers under Genippolis are in our hands. They There is no fighting spirit at all. After removing them, the Dionysians are not much more than our warriors, and we have tall walls, moats, deer villages, and traps. Unless the Dionysians are crazy, Because of their strength, they dare not come to die!"

"Admiral Lord is right! Our warriors in Laos do not fear any intimidation! I hope the Dionysians can come to the city so that we can take advantage of them!"

"Asinu is above, it is time for the Dionysians to see and see how powerful our Laos warriors are!"

...

The men showed their courage to Alobmus.

At this time, more than 20 rides ran out of the formation of Dionysian under the city, standing at less than 100 meters from the city, shouting for the first person: "I am Avinoji, the soldiers of Laos Son of Sis, your governor, Hernipolis!"

His voice just fell, and more than 20 messengers repeated his words at the same time, so that people in the city could hear clearly.

"Adult, that kid! We shot him with arrows!" His face changed, and he suggested to Alobmus.

Arobmas waved his hand.For this nephew, his mood is complicated, with guilt for taking his power, pain for breaking his brother’s promise, and distress for his unhappiness and fear of wanton behavior.

Arobmas knew that he must face this young man bravely and cut off these negative emotions in his heart to truly become a qualified Laos ruler!So he wanted to hear what the nephew said first, and then refute him.

"The soldiers of Laos, we are descendants of the noble Subaris, but for decades they have become slaves of aliens. Under the leadership of my father, you who do not want to be slaves bravely revolted and drove away He became an alien and became the master of Laos!"

Hernipolis waited for his voice to be heard and shouted again: "But have you really become the master of this city?! Most of you have no land, can't take office in city-states, and can't participate in the formulation of various city-state programs. There is no political power, but because of poverty, in order to survive, they have to belong to various clans and tribes, desperately grazing and planting farmland for those officials and chiefs, in order to get a little bit of food to feed the hunger.

And those officials and leaders who do not need to do anything but enjoy the food, occupy the various city-state positions of Laos, occupy all the land of Laos, and promulgate various laws that will help them rule you.Look at the fat generals and leaders around you. Do you really think you are the master of this city?!Are you really free?!..."

"Let the arrow! Hurry the arrow!" Arobmas ordered angrily, and he did not expect that this daring nephew would expose the secret of their ruling to Laos before the people: Damn it!Damn Hornipolis!Does he not want our family to rule the city again?!

Arobmas' orders were passed on, but there weren't many warriors who responded to the orders. More people really looked at and blamed their leaders, as he said, whispered in his mouth. : "He is right, these people are indeed much fatter than us..."
