Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Chapter 800 Daveus Enters Rome

"Your Majesty your safety--" Olivers said with concern.

Daveus waved his hand and said aloud: "My security is guarded by my own guard! Moreover, the city has been conquered by our heroic soldiers. I don't think there are Romans here who have the courage to challenge the kingdom!"

No one in the senior generals questioned again.

Davis faced Timothy Pace again and said kindly: "Go and get treatment, I hope to hear from you again soon!"

Daveus looked at the standing soldiers next to him, waved and said: "The warriors of Dionysia, all went back to their station to take a good rest, restore your full strength and prepare for the next battle!"

At this moment, Timothy Pace, who was touched by what Davies said, couldn't help but shouted: "Your Majesty Davies!"

The soldiers who heard Daveus around them shouted with excitement: "Your Majesty Daveus!!!"

Soon, the sound rang all over the city, and the Roman people hiding in the houses heard this deafening shout, and they were all frightened.

The daring even looked through the window to the people like Davers who were walking in the street, their eyes full of hatred.

Of course, Davis also saw this beam of sharp eyes like a knife. He didn't care, but instead looked around leisurely and poked the ground with his feet from time to time. He clearly felt that Rome and past life at this time In history, the Roman Empire, which is famous for its roads, bridges, and buildings in the world, is still far away. After all, Rome at this time has just risen in central Italy. It is far from building a huge road system because it is convenient to rule the entire Italy. None of the vertebral bridges on the River Po are still stone bridges, and Dionysia’s strength in construction is far greater than that of Rome, which made Davies feel a pleasure in his heart. He couldn’t help saying: “I heard that the Romans In order to quickly rebuild the city of Rome, the whole city was built very ugly, and now it seems that this rumor is true."

"Yeah, Your Majesty! Not only is the city wall ugly, but the city is also ugly. Originally, this place has both rivers, hills, and flat land. The well-planned construction will be a very beautiful city. It's a mess!" Henipolis sighed regretfully.

"Now that the city belongs to Dionysia, we can completely overthrow and rebuild!" Matonis said indifferently.

"It seems that you Mattonis is very interested in rebuilding the city of Rome. After the war is over, you can ask the Senate to appoint you as the supervisor of the city of Rome." Davers said jokingly.

"No, Your Majesty, I am not interested in rebuilding the city of Rome. You should give this position to others." Matonis said quickly.

Everyone laughed.

When the afterglow of Davos' eyes swept to the body of a Roman citizen on the corner of the street, the smile on his face converged: "Before the siege, I asked all the legions to not indiscriminately kill the civilians and soldiers in the city after the city was broken How are they performing?"

Oliver glanced at Davis's complexion and said carefully: "We have repeatedly emphasized that the soldiers also tried not to deal with the people in the city as much as possible. The main cause of their injury and death was after they saw us breaking the city. They fled in panic, shoving and trampling each other, so in their squares, they caused a lot of casualties..."

Of course, Davies understood that after capturing the enemy's city, there would be no death or injury to civilians, otherwise how to deter the civilians of the enemy country, he just wanted to warn the heads of these regiments, restrain the soldiers, and do not wantonly indiscriminately: The army is still on the way, the more Roman people we have, the more beneficial it will be for the next battle... Have these Romans returned to their houses?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, some people are reluctant to leave, and depending on the square, we...have to take some compulsory measures!" said Matonis.

Daveus nodded, and at this time he had stepped into the Roman Forum. This wide and flat place, which was paved with white stone slabs, almost became red at the moment, and the blood stains were continuously reflected in Daveus. He frowned, watching the soldiers clearing the square and dragging away a corpse, and then said, "How do you deal with these corpses?"

Mattonis pointed in front of his finger and said indifferently: "Drag to the square outside the east city to be cremated."

Daphs pondered for a while and said, "Bring some Romans during the cremation, let them confirm the identity of the deceased, and then bring the ashes to the relatives of the deceased."

Matonis was stunned and thought it was a little troublesome. He wanted to argue again. Olivers stopped him and interjected: "Okay, Your Majesty, I will immediately send someone to notify Amintas, who is in charge of this matter."

A group of Davies went straight north through the square. He saw twelve copper pillars that could be embraced by one person, standing on the edge of the square at intervals, and he looked up.

Every copper pillar is engraved with handwritings, perhaps years old and experiencing wind and rain, and it is already rusty.

"Your Majesty, what is it written on?" asked Henripolis, curious as he saw Daveus.

"This is Rome's 12 copper watch law. The above records are the laws of the Romans. Rome, like our Dionysia, is a country that extremely follows the law!" Davies sighed with emotion, he remembered When he studied law at university in his previous life, Rome's "Twelve Copper Table Law" was an important basis for understanding the formation of Western law. I did not expect to see the real thing today.

He reached out and touched the cold copper pillars. The past and present are intertwined at this moment. He said with emotion: "This is the most precious wealth of the Romans!"

Oliver said flatly: "Unfortunately, this precious wealth of the Romans has now belonged to us Dionysia!"

Henripolis glanced at the copper pillar with greedy eyes. Although he did not know the Latin script, he had decided to buy a literate Latin slave and copied all the above provisions.

"Let's go." Daveus led them up the steps, pushed open the thick wooden door, and entered the power center of Rome-the Senate.

"This is the senate of Rome? It's much smaller than our large parliament!" Henipolis looked around and said slightly disdainfully.

Daveus did not speak, but he also carefully looked at this building that appeared frequently in literary works, historical materials, film and television works in previous lives. Compared with the Thurii Great Hall that can accommodate thousands of people, this building The circular venue can only accommodate two or three hundred people, and the indoor facilities are old, which suddenly made him realize that this is no longer the history of the previous life. The Dionysian kingdom he built in this life will definitely replace Rome. The stunning Caesar and the politician Octavius ​​who truly established the Roman Empire will no longer exist.

Thinking of this, he strode toward the center of the venue.

The guards have placed wooden tables and wooden chairs at the place where the Roman veteran gave a speech, and put a map of the city of Rome.

Matonis and Olivers quickly sat on the wooden chairs.

It didn’t take long for Amintas, Lizaru, Geogris, Trotiras, Epitanes, Ledes, Kuzius, Tormid, Midolades, Pu Lintols, Izam, and the head of all medical camps, Stacek Das, and the head of all engineering camps, Orops... have all arrived.

"Let's talk about the losses of the legions in this siege battle first." Daveus glanced at the crowd, and then said in a deep voice.

After Daveus had finished speaking, the heads of several regiments all looked a little ugly.

After the reports of the chiefs of the various legions, it was Daves’s turn to look bad, because the army had more than 5,000 casualties, of which the fourth legion had the most casualties, followed by the first legion and the second legion, and it was different from the previous battles. As many as 2,000 people died in battle, the mortality rate is much higher than before.

Although Daphes expected that this time the siege casualties will be relatively large, but did not expect it to be one-twelfth of the army’s casualty rate. The six corps are almost 1,000 casualties per corps, which is not that light. Wounded soldiers.

Devers suppressed the shock in his heart and asked Stacey Kedas: "How are these injured soldiers?"

Stacey Kidas said with a serious expression: "The situation is very bad! Up to now, 450 people have died because of ineffective treatment, and 232 severely burned soldiers can survive the fever and infection of these days. I’m not sure... there are more than 1,000 soldiers with severe falls, stab wounds, cuts, bruises, drowning... who cannot recover in a short time, or even if they recover, they cannot live like normal people...

After listening to Daphus, he felt uncomfortable. He knew that the main reason for such a large number of casualties was actually himself. If it were not for him to forcefully capture Rome within a day, the legions would not be so persistent of the attack, regardless of sacrifice, but he I couldn’t help but say sharply: “More than 5,000 people! This is usually the population of a small Greek city-state, and it’s abolished in this day’s battle! The soldiers trusted us and carried out every order we issued, And we have to love them and lead them out, we must lead them home as completely as possible!"

Speaking of which, Davers struck the table fiercely: "But some of you don't use your mind to fight at all, and don't care too much about the lives of soldiers. If you fight like this, you will wipe out the entire army! I think you will return How to face the parents, wives and children of the soldiers who died in battle!"

Davies's sharp eyes swept over the sitting legions, especially on Amintas and Olivers.

Without the help of siege equipment and the coordinated offensive of allies, Amintas deliberately broke the wall with his own strength, and actually invested almost all his troops. He continued to launch a fierce attack on the defenders of the city head, even making the fighting force the strongest. The loss of the First Army is not small.
