Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Apart from Davis and Cynthia, Adores was the most afraid from childhood. When he saw Cynthia's face he didn't hesitate, he didn't dare to talk again, took a sip of wine, and then said: "Sister...I want you to go with My mother pleaded, and asked her to help me to tell my father, and change my army to the First Army!"

"Do you want to go to Walsey?!" After listening to Adores, Cynthia immediately understood his intentions.These days, the Ministry of Military Affairs, while treating the wounded soldiers of the First Army, dealing with the remains of the dead, and appeasing the family members, is also selecting reserve soldiers and preparing to send them to Walsey to make up for the shortage of soldiers of the First Army. Cynthia because of Patroclus Working in the First Army, of course, also understand this.

"Isn't the first army in the kingdom's army fighting now, and they are in short supply of soldiers. I'm idle now in Turui, just to help your husband Patroclus." Ah Doris said seemingly relaxed.

"Your brother-in-law doesn't need you to help!" Cynthia said very simply, how could she not know that Adoris has a normal relationship with her husband, saying this is a pretext.And this time in the northern war, the First Army suffered a lot of casualties. Even the middle and senior team officers were partly killed. Cynthia was also frightened when he heard the news. He prayed for Patroclus every day and even hated that he did not have the blood of Hades. , Unable to provide more shelter for her husband.However, Cynthia did not ask her father to transfer Patroclus back to Turui because she knew that as the king's son-in-law, Patroclus's every move attracted attention, and it was impossible for the father to answer her request.

So, just when Cynthia was worried about Patroclus, her own brother had to take the initiative to go to the dangerous place in Walsey. How could she not feel a little angry, she warned him: "Adoris, you Learn like Croto and stay at Turiri with peace of mind, don't worry your parents!"

"I can't compare with Little Clo, he can be busy in the military department, and I am 21 years old, and I can only hang out in Turui every day." Adonis complained.

"That's because your father has arranged several positions in the military department for you, but you are not willing to go!" Cynthia rebuked.

"You don’t know, I had a headache as soon as I saw the words and numbers. At first, I graduated from school. My best is fighting! I can only use this to win honor for myself, so that those who always use strange Those who look at me know that I Adores is not a person who can only rely on his father's prestige and live mediocre!" Adores said with excitement.

Cynthia heard his inner suffocation from his words. She really hadn't thought that the impulsive and reckless brother would usually have this kind of thought, a moment of silence.

A moment later, she looked at Adorius with a little more compassion and asked softly: "This is why you went to the household registration department not long ago and changed her name to Marcellis Adoris. ?"

"The name of our biological father has to be inherited (referring to the biological father of Adolis and Cynthia, the former Archangel Marcellis of Amendolara), and the father also knows, listening to the mother said that he and There is no objection,” Adonis explained. “I use this name, at least in the military to reduce some unnecessary attention.”

"I hope you won't regret it in the future." Cynthia sighed.Indeed, any general or team officer who sees the name of Daveus Adoris on the officers’ roster may be shocked, because the person with this surname is the only one in the kingdom, so naturally Doris doubled his attention.

Cynthia stared at the slightly childish face of Adores: it took a lot of courage to abandon this great surname, which shows that Adores really made a great determination!

Thinking of this, Cynthia said softly: "I will go to your mother to help you persuade. But I suggest you better talk to your father and let him know what you really think. Anyway, my father has always been in love Ours, he is worried about our safety, as long as he understands what you really think inside, I think he will make better arrangements for you."

Adoris pondered: from small to large, he was afraid to see Davers, perhaps because he always held his real father in his heart, and did not really treat Davers as a father, so every time he saw Daphes, there is always guilt in his heart.

Cynthia saw him hesitating and reminded him again: "Actually, you don't need to change your affiliated legion so frequently. Alas, I heard that there will be a war with Carthage soon. I believe you belong to the Second Legion. Will soon be sent to the front."

Adoris moved his heart, but said in his mouth: "Who knows how long the timid Carthage have to wait before acting."

The two chatted for a while, and Cynthia's personal slave appeared at the door of the living room. Cynthia saw her expression slightly flustered and asked, "What's the matter?"

The slave girl hurried to Cynthia and whispered something.

After listening, Cynthia sighed a long way: "Adoris, news came from the city of Turiri, and the Carthaginians sent a large army to land in Sicily."

………………………………………

On the day of January 1, 14 (379 BC) of the Kingdom of Dionia, the sea from the western tip of Sicily to Carthage was very lively.

More than 300 warships were divided into two teams, lining up on both sides of the west end of Sicily to prevent the raid of the Dionysian fleet.The sea between the two fleets was filled with thousands of ships, and they have been shuttled between Carthage and Lilithium since the morning, and they have continued to transport soldiers, war horses, grain, and grass to Sicily. The load...

Since the city was built, Lili Pian has never been as lively and busy as it is today. Many ports are full of ships. The docks are full of soldiers and unloaded items. The roads are congested and the people are full of people.Fortunately, Lilibe is different from the previous Motia. It has existed from the beginning as a military center of Carthage in Sicily, so its ports and roads are built according to military standards, even its The Chief Executive has always been a military general, not an administrative official.

In the militarist city of Lilibis, with the order of its owner, almost all the people of the city began to act, busying for the landing of the Carthage army in an orderly manner, and with their efforts, the problems were solved one by one. , The entire landing process gradually became smoother...

After landing, the troops were quickly taken to the barracks outside Lilifang, which was built when Marco was the highest military commander in Sicily, and recently Lilibian rebuilt it.

This time, the highest commander of the Carthage Army, Monte Adno, and Hanno's son-in-law Millefio were in the official residence of Lilifang's castle owner. Tasting fine wine and food.

"Sir Semimray." Millefio suddenly interrupted his report and asked, "Have they not come yet?"

After Marco was removed from Sicily, Hano soon replaced several important Sicilian Carthage colonial cities with his own people, Semimre was one of them, and he certainly knew what Millefio said. Who did the "them" refer to? He immediately replied: "I haven't heard of their arrival yet."

"General, should they not miss the appointment?" Millefio reminded.

"You can rest assured, Marco is still more trustworthy. Since he said he would send an army, he would generally not gossip. If he doesn't come, he will be dealt with by Hanno, and we don't have to worry about it." Monte Adnor I didn't care much, but focused on the wine glass in my hand: "This wine tastes mellow and very pleasant. Where did it come from?"

"...This is Turri's wine." Semimray replied a little awkwardly. He thought that Montlatno would be dissatisfied. Whoever knew that the 50-year-old commander was surprised: "I The Turi wines that I have drunk in the past are not as good as this time. Do they have improved their wine making process?"

While speaking, he raised his glass again and took a sip. After a careful tasting, he sighed: "It is indeed quite different from the past! What a pity! Now we are at war with Dionia. It is estimated that such a good wine You can’t drink it!"

Semrim said immediately: "General, since you love this wine so much, I still have a lot of cans there. I will turn around and let my servant send you to the barracks."

Montratno did not refuse to say anything, thanking him.

Millefio met on the sidelines and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "General, wait for us to defeat Dionia. At that time, you can directly order Dionyans to send you these wines, isn't it more convenient!"

Monte Adorno covered his long beard with a laugh, "This is a good idea! However, I heard that King Davers had a tough temper, and if he was to send his wine obediently, he had to thoroughly wear it. Onia only hurts. Dionia is a powerful kingdom, and it will also be a long war. We need not worry too much!"

……………………………………

At the same time as the wine tasting in Monte Adno, the "them" mentioned in Millefio's mouth was riding on a battleship, leading a large fleet, and the mighty northeast of Sicily Island sailing.

"Hastrruba, I heard that the commander of the Carthage army is Monte Adno this time. Are you familiar with him?" Kisgo asked.

"Just a Hanno's dog." Hasdruba sneered contemptuously: "He only knows in the senator's courtyard to slam our Margonide family in order to please Hanno. This is how he can become a big army. Commander's reason."
