Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

"Adult! Wake up! There is a big deal! Adult..."

Camillus was awakened by the lieutenant, and his heart suddenly tightened: "What happened?!"

"There was a riot in the camp! Some soldiers attacked the guards of the camp and occupied the camp door..."

"what?!!……"

……………………………………

Daveus put some Roman civilians out of the city purely out of the psychology of "a jujube and a jujube hitting a shot to trouble Camerus' Roman army", because he did not have too much expectation because he Standing on the city's head and carefully observing the camp built by the Roman army, it seems that its defense is quite good, and Camillus also ruthlessly refused to accept his family...

While Davies lamented that the Roman dictator was worthy of being called the "Father of Rome" in his previous life, he did not think that the hard-hearted, calm-minded Roman dictator would let these people enter the camp and disrupt the military.

However, all kinds of coincidences made the result of this matter bigger than Dave's expectation.

When he was awakened by Maltius in his sleep and learned of the chaos in the Roman camp, he could not believe it was the result of the old people who were released in the afternoon, until the head of the first legionary army responsible for the defense of the northeastern wall The Mintas sent soldiers to select a few Roman soldiers and people who had fled through the east gate to the city, and took them to the senate. Daphs only found out that the chaos in the Roman camp was caused by thousands of people who wanted to escape from the camp. Caused by Roman civilian soldiers.

"Is this really true? Or Camillus' enticement?" Daveus looked at the dark night outside the window, not sure.

While ordering the various legions to gather troops, he immediately asked the intelligence service to immediately interrogate the soldiers and the people who entered the city separately.

In the end, when he made up his mind to take action, the riots in the Roman camp were already a little bit smaller than at the beginning, but he still sent the second and fifth legions to the south gate to try to attack the Roman camp, and sent the first The legion went out of the east gate to meet the Roman civilian soldiers and people who fled, and repelled the chasers.

Because of the sudden incident, on this evening, Camillus and the generals put their main energy into stabilizing the army and quelling the riots in the camp. They had no spare power to resist the attack of the Dionysians, let alone He said he would send more troops to counter the Dionysian army.

And Davis did not prepare carefully in advance. Attacking the Roman camp in the dark night was an adventure, and he also worried that the Roman civilian soldiers who fled into the Roman city would be unstable and cause chaos, so this night battle did not How long it lasts.

But for the leadership of both sides, there are many difficult problems that need to be solved urgently.

………………………………………

Dozens of candles illuminated the Roman Senate, Daves paced back and forth in the center of the venue, bowing his head and thinking, followed by Henripolis and Croto Catax.

At this time, Roman Chief Executive Asistos strode into the venue.

"What about the Romans who fled into the city?" Daveus asked him as soon as he saw him.

Yasisters said immediately: "Your Majesty, the result of our emergency statistics, a total of 1,275 Roman soldiers and 213 Roman citizens fled into the city, and 100 administrative deputies, Tonics, have applied for Dionia Citizen Romans screened them and found two nobles and seven noble diners. The other Romans were all determined to be civilians. Now they are all temporarily controlled in the barracks of the First Army, waiting for your majesty. Your next step."

Davers was delighted by the efficiency of the newly established city hall. He asked gently, "What do you think should be done with them?"

"When I came, I had asked the census officer Porotax to tell them about your special bill made by His Majesty on Roman civilians, and convinced them to apply for Dionysian citizens immediately. Soldiers can immediately allocate land and housing to them, and then let them go home. For those Roman soldiers who did not want to join our kingdom, they were temporarily allowed to serve in the military camp for a period of time on the grounds of'shortage of manpower'. Convenient to take care of..." Yasisters talked eloquently, apparently had plans for this.

"Axi, you are very thoughtful!" Daveus praised first, and then said confidently: "These Roman soldiers ventured out of the camp late at night and returned to the city of Rome. It can be seen that most of them are willing to become Dioni. For Asian citizens, even if there are a few who haven’t figured it out yet, they don’t need to be too cautious, just let them all go home, usually let the inspector pay more attention to it, even if someone has other thoughts, in the current city of Rome, they I can't afford any storms!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Yasister responded immediately.

Daveus looked at him and suddenly smiled: "I see, are you ready to put them all home?"

"Nothing can hide your majesty's eyes." Yasistus replied respectfully.

"You, you!" Daveus tapped him with his hand. He wanted to criticize a few words. Then he swallowed at his mouth. He stretched his hand and patted his shoulder firmly. "I appointed you Rome." The Chief Executive believes that only you can turn the city of Rome into our city of Dionysian, so despite your confidence to govern, boldly give orders and implement your governance of this city, don’t take care of me!"

"Yes...!" Still the same answer, but this time Yasister's tone seemed a little excited, he took a deep breath, and then said seriously: "Your Majesty, a Roman soldier strongly asked to see you , He said he had one important thing to report to you...and this person was the only Roman squadron leader among all Romans who fled into the city. According to others, this time Roman civilian soldiers were able to escape from the camp, mainly He was planned and led."

"Oh?!" Daveus asked with interest: "What's his name?"

"Lukeus Sextus, I have brought him over and he is waiting outside the door."

"Then let him in." Daveus said with interest.

……………………………………

As a Roman citizen, Sextus was also the first to walk into the Roman Senate. Of course, he has heard countless times telling others about the layout of the Senate and the many stories that happened in the venue. One day he was sitting in this sacred place in a red rimmed white robe, discussing the future of Rome.

However, it is not the Roman soldiers in red helmets and red armour who are guarding the entrance and exit of the venue at this time, but the Dionysian guards in black helmets and black armor.The ring-shaped venue, which should have been quarreling fiercely, is now empty, but there is a long table and many wooden chairs in the center of the venue where there should be enough space for the veterans to speak.Under the candlelight, three people sat in the center of the venue.

It seems that the Dionysians transformed the sacred Roman Senate into a place for ordinary deliberations!Sextus felt that he should have been angry, but there was no power of anger in his heart, but there was an unspeakable taste that made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Under the guidance of the court escort Martius, he walked to the center of the venue, and the middle-aged man, who had been watching him, said kindly: "Please sit down, Sextus."

Sectus sat down politely and asked directly in Greek: "Are you the king of Dionyssia?"

"I am." Daveus smiled slightly.

"We, the Romans, abolished the king's government a hundred years ago and finally abolished the king's government, and adopted a republican government, and made all citizens swear that no one should ever be king. As far as I know, many of your Greek city-states They have also changed from a former princely government to a democratic system, but Dionysia is a princely government. Do you think we Romans will accept the rule of a king?"

Daveus smiled again, saying: "If you Roman civilians are satisfied with the Roman system, why do you often fight against the nobility, and even refuse to vote for the consul at the Civic Assembly?"

Sextus obviously thought about it, and he quickly answered: "The republican system in Rome is problematic, but it is also better than the previous royal system."

"In my opinion, the polity of a city-state is not based on what kind of polity it is, but on how many citizens it can benefit from!" Davers said with a heavy tone: "Rome's system makes about half of the population Roman civilians felt strong dissatisfaction and continued to fight; and although the Kingdom of Dionysia is a king, every citizen in the kingdom owns land and can use the public land of the kingdom fairly. Every citizen is in debt The debt can also be paid off smoothly. Every citizen has the opportunity to serve as a minister and veteran of the kingdom. Every citizen must abide by the law. Whether it is a civilian or a noble, he will be punished if he breaks the law...

Even as a king, I also have to abide by the laws of the kingdom formulated by the Senate, so I will not see the wives of any citizen who are beautiful and outrageously take their own possession. (The reason why the last king of Rome was expelled is that Because the wife of the citizen was humiliated by the royal family, it was eventually triggered), because it will be punished by the law, the worst death penalty; I will not see any citizen who is rich, and forcibly plundered his property, then I committed Theft; I am even less likely to see someone as unsightly and order him to be arrested or even killed, because the judges will refuse to execute, and the Senate will also protest..."

After hearing this, Sextus said something unbelievable: "You have said the Prince of Dionysia too well, is this really the case?"
