Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Chapter 841: Roman Triumph (1)

With Keslera’s lesson, the two messengers dared to perfunctory, and the two sides quickly discussed the matter.

During the period, under the urging of Davers, the messenger rode fast between Rome and Walch and Tarzuna. The two sides quickly drafted a draft alliance. The main contents are:

First, the Kingdom of Dionia formed a military alliance with Tarzuna and Walch;

Second, Tarzuna and Walch must respond to Dionysia’s request to provide troops to fight against Dionysia’s enemies, and Dionya must also protect the territory of Tarzuna and Walch ;

Third, Walch and Tarzuna recognize Dionysia’s legal occupation of Keslera;

Fourth, Dionia must assist Tarjuna and Walch to recapture Sulwatum and Xhosa and return their territory to the confederate confederation, but the Roman people in the city belong to Dionysia, the confederate Soldiers are not allowed to rob;

...

The alliance agreement has not yet been formally signed, and these two Etruscan city-states, urged by Daphes, sent envoys to the Roman camp the next day, and this was the easy victory.

……………………………………

On this day, the sun was shining brightly and the sky was cloudless.

After experiencing wars, killings, chaos, and crying, the people of the city of Rome had a rare celebration on their faces. They dressed up, brought their wives and daughters, and gathered on both sides of the road from the arena to the square, waiting for the triumphant. Start.

Among these people was McKelius. Three days ago, he knew that Wei Ai had fallen and immediately fled the barracks with many Wei Ai soldiers.

At that time, the Roman army was busy intercepting the departure of the Etruscans and other colonial city troops on the northern bank of the Tiber River, making most of them smoothly escape. Many people, like McKelius, ran directly under the Roman city to The Dionyans surrendered.

After confirming their identity, the Dionysian officials will surrender the Roman nobles with their families to the south by boat, and be distributed to the towns in the kingdom by the Turri family registration department. Civilians, they have to ask whether they choose to live in Rome or maintain their love, and then resettle according to their choice.In fact, they will take the initiative to guide the civilians to choose Rome, because after cleaning up the Roman nobility, the entire Roman city was vacated by more than half.

For McKillius, who originally grew up in Rome, he was of course willing to return to Rome, because not only did he have better housing, but he could also be allocated to more fertile land. The flat land along the river that originally belonged to Viagra was assigned to Rome, and only the hilly areas were left for the distribution of Roman citizens who moved to Viagra.)

The officials of Dionysia not only helped him to find his wife and children, but also told him: His Majesty King Daphes specially issued a bill for the Romans who applied for them to become citizens of Dionysia. When harvesting, they can first harvest the crops that originally belonged to their own land, and then cultivate the new land.'

Daveus's intimate measures really reassured all Roman civilians who had surrendered to Dionia.

Just as McKelius was busy moving, a news spread throughout Rome: The Dionysians are preparing to hold a triumph in Rome tomorrow!

Suddenly, it caused waves among the Roman people. After all, the triumph is one of the most sacred ceremonies of Roman citizens. It is a ritual to show off the heroes and glory after the Romans defeated the enemy, so McKillius urgently wanted to know these Roman civilians: Do the Dionyans know how to hold the triumph?What attitude will the Dionyans take towards the Romans in the triumph?(Because in the triumphs of Rome in the past, captive enemies were always escorted to the procession)...

Therefore, many Roman people are holding a lot of doubts, and they gather to the side of the road with a complex expression, waiting for the ceremony to begin.

"Woo!..." The bugle sounded loudly, followed by drums, and a melody of joy came from the south of Rome.

The people on the roadside could not help but shook their heads following this strange and beautiful melody. Some people even called the music nice and asked the people around them for their names, but no one knew.

After a while, the people on the south side of the city first rioted and shouted, "Come! They are here!!!"

People on the roadside began to surge forward, but were stopped by the Dionysian soldiers who stood in front of the roadside and held hands to guard.

McKelius picked up the five-year-old child and looked to the south on tiptoe. I saw a golden flag shining in the middle of the south road was held high in the air and approached them...

Waiting closer, McKelius saw clearly that a high-flying black flag was painted with a silver double-stranded fork against a golden crown, surrounded by precious stones, and surrounded by black hair. The flag was a prestige. Lingling's Greek deity statue.

This is the flag of the Kingdom of Dionysia?!McKelius looked up at him. He knew that after returning from Helniki with the Roman army, he went directly to attack Ostia. He hadn’t seen the specific flag of Dionysia, he surrendered. .

This time, he looked very carefully because he knew he would fight under the command of this flag in the future.

The Roman people on both sides of the road looked at the soldiers holding the flag curiously. Although he was not very tall and burly, he had a strong build, strong muscles, and several scars on his face.

Of course, the Roman people will not know that the soldiers who can hold the flag high in the triumph of Dionysia are the most brave and outstanding soldiers in the war. For a Dionyan citizen, this is the highest honor. It is also the focus of the attention of the Dionysian people. After all, there is only one person holding the flag high, and several generals are riding in the chariot.

No one watching the Roman people cheered or threw flowers at the soldiers holding the flag, which might make Terentus feel a little regret, but he is still full of pride, because he is the first since the establishment of Dionia The soldiers of the mountain reconnaissance brigade holding the flag high in the triumphant form first ventured into the sewers of Rome and made their first achievements at night. When they attacked the city of Keslera at night, they first climbed the city wall and cut down five or six people in a row. The Keslera soldiers who rushed to stop, won time for the entire operation, so he was undoubtedly elected when he selected the triumphant flag-bearer.

Behind him were ten soldiers who held ten flags high, and because of too many flags and insufficient road width, they were forced to line up in two rows.These flags belong to the 1st Army Corps, 2nd Army Corps, 3rd Army Corps, 4th Army Corps, 5th Army Corps, 6th Army Corps, 1st Cavalry Corps, 2nd Cavalry Corps, and this time also joined the team flag of the Mountain Reconnaissance Brigade, This special force with only 1,000 troops played an extremely important role in this war. Of course, the casualties were not small. Of course, Davies must commend it vigorously to make up for its honor in the army in recent years. ignore.

Now holding the flag of this mountain detection team is a company captain Crigolas. Although he did not perform very well as a team officer in this battle, he has fought in the battles for more than a decade. In all, there are good performances.

Another flag is...

The Roman people on the roadside saw the flag and the soldiers holding the flag, and some could not help but exclaimed: "It is Valerius! It is Varerius!"

But more Roman people looked at the only red flag like McKelius' complex expression.

The soldier holding this flag, Valerius, was still wearing the costume of the Roman heavy infantry. As a member of the newly formed Roman reserve brigade, he showed bravery and became the representative of the Roman reserve brigade in the battle of assaulting Wei Ai three days ago. Of course, his performance is far from that of other legionnaires, but what Davies needs is the political significance he represents.

But apparently this Roman civilian has not yet adapted to this atmosphere, and he has shrunk a little, and has not even nodded to the people who know him. He is not as proud and proud as other flag bearers.

After the flag-bearers, McKelius appeared before them. The four Dionysian priests in white robes carried a deity wooden idol and walked solemnly in the line.

Many people in Rome whispered: Who is this Greek deity?

Anyone who knows the situation tells them: It is the patron saint of the Kingdom of Dionysia-Hades, Hades.

Hearing this, the voice of the people on the roadside was actually quieter, because they realized that after joining the Kingdom of Dionysia, they would inevitably deal with this powerful Greek god.

After the passing of Dionysian priest, another deity statue appeared in front of McKelius and other people.

"Goddess Diana!!!" someone shouted excitedly.

The Dionysians placed the statue of Diana, who was widely worshiped by the Roman civilians, behind their patron saint, which shows that they attached importance to the gods respected by the Roman civilians, so that they were relieved in their hearts. I even saw that the main priest of the Temple of Diana was among the priests who carried the statue.

This priest has a solemn expression, but he is very happy in his heart, because the priest of the Temple of Hades, Caldias, had already had a close talk with him: after Rome was merged into the Kingdom of Dionysia, the Temple of Hades will focus on Support the Temple of Diana as one of the main worshipping temples of the Romans who are already citizens of Dionysian, and the Temple of Diana will also become a place of free worship for Dionyan citizens of other races.

Cardias’ commitment excites the Diana’s temple priest. Although the Roman city’s Diana temple was popular with Latin civilians in the past, it did not receive much attention from the Senate and could not enter Capito. Lin Shan, enjoy the sacrifices of the entire city-state during important celebrations.Dionysia apparently did not look at Jupiter and Juno, who are somewhat similar to the Greek main gods, but to focus on supporting Diana. Today, let them walk in the grand triumphal parade is the beginning, which makes the priest to the future Full of anticipation.
