Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

And when Dionia defeated Rome and forced the southern city-states of Etruria to submit to the surrender, the northern city-states were also watching. They even worried that this southern kingdom, stronger than Rome, would become a huge threat like the Celtics. So when the news of the complete destruction of Rome came, the senior leaders of the northern Etruscan city-state could not sit still, and they hurriedly sent messengers to Rome to inquire about the intentions of the Dionysians, and can now form an alliance with Dionysian Is exactly what they are asking for.

Daveus put down his glass and looked around the excited messengers. He suddenly remembered something and happened to take this opportunity to say: "Consul Catamontaros, last year you were taken by the Romans, Antium, Villetre, The territories of the three cities of Satnikum have been taken back by us Dionysia. Please go back and inform the Walsey exiles of these three city-states, let them return as soon as possible, and take over their city-states again!"

"Uh..." Katermontaros came to Rome this time, and one of the purposes was to discuss the ownership of these three towns, but he did not expect that Davies did not mention anything, so he returned the three towns directly. After Walsey, I didn't know what to say for a while. After a while, I said excitedly: "Thank you, King, for your selfless help to Walsey! Thank you Dionysians for their great help to Walsey!... …As far as I know, in order to help us recapture the three towns, many of the Dionysian warriors were injured and even died... For this reason, we, the Worse League, are willing to donate a lot of money to the king to make up for you The loss of Dionysia! Although I know, these things do not fully express the gratitude of our Walseys to Dionysia..."

After listening to Daphes, he sincerely said: "Walsey and Dionysia are allies. Dionysia is helping you to regain your lost ground is to fulfill the obligations of allies. I am very grateful for the gift of the Walsey Alliance, but also deeply Feel Walsey’s friendship with Dionysia! But I think that this batch of materials is still reserved for the people of Walsey who have suffered from the war and are in urgent need of rebuilding their homes!"

After listening to Catamontaros, he was even more moved and was about to say something.Nemeli stood beside him suddenly, rushing and said: "Dear King, we Helnikians are also very grateful--"

Daveus waved his hand and interrupted his words with a serious expression: "Nemeli, if you are also going to give Dionysia something to give, you don't have to say it. I know that in this war with the Romans, you guys The Alniki people suffered the most losses. Not to mention rebuilding their homes, even the food is quite scarce. I am afraid that how to spend this winter will become your big problem! So, I decided to give you a batch of food and help you first After going through the difficulties, if you have any difficulties in the process of rebuilding your homeland, you can come to Rome to ask for help. The Chief Executive of Rome will do his best to help you!"

Nemeli was stunned. He wanted to say something, but he choked in his mouth, just swaying his lips, and soon began to choke.

Catamontaros expressed his gratitude in a timely and loud manner: "Benevolent King Dionia! Thank you all the people of Walsey! It is our great honor and pride to be an ally of Dionysia!"

Witnessing this situation, the empathy of other emissaries felt relieved, not only greatly eliminating the vigilance against the powerful Dionysia, but everyone was thinking: Dionysia can treat Walsey and He Alniki, wait for your race to become an alliance of Dionysia, I believe you will get such treatment!

As a result, the atmosphere of the entire banquet became warmer and more joyful, and the guests and hosts enjoyed it.

For a period of time afterwards, Tapirus was busy negotiating with the messengers and signing the covenant, and one thing happened during this period.

When Cathay Montaros returned to Walsey, and conveyed the words of Daveus to the Walsey League, the people who had been in exile before returning to their homes began to mobilize.

But the people of Satnikum refused to return. The reason was simple: the town was cursed by demons and had a plague, which was no longer suitable for them!

In spite of this, the Roman Chief Executive Yasisters assured the envoy of Walsey that after a long period of observation by the doctors of Dionia, Satnikum territory was safe and no more plagues would occur.

But most Satnikum people still refused to go.

After several deliberations, the top of the Walsey Alliance considered that the war caused a sharp decline in the population of Walsey. Now that the entire territory of Walsey is sparsely populated, the final decision is made: to give Willetley and Satnikum territory as gifts Give Dionia a little care as they thank allies for their selfless assistance!(The reason for adding Willetray is that the Walseys are worried that if only Satnikum is more like an evasion of responsibility, it seems that they are not sincere. If Antium is not added, it is considered In the future, he will be in close contact with Dionysia’s Roman territory. As the nearest town of Walsey to Antioch, Antium will undoubtedly develop tremendously in land and sea, and the Walsey Alliance is somewhat reluctant).

……………………………………

While Daveus hosted feasts of envoys around Rome, Sectus, who had returned to Rome and had just reunited with his family, walked to the foot of the Capitolin.

On the Capitolin Hill was the Roman Acropolis because of the temple of Jupiter, the main god believed by the Romans, and the queen Juno, but in fact the vast number of Roman civilians rarely had the opportunity to worship on the mountain. The same is true of Sectus, who once served as the squadron leader of Rome.

But today, Sectus saw that the guards leading to the top of the mountain also had soldiers on guard, but they no longer prohibited people from going up the mountain. Therefore, the whole mountain road was constantly busy with people going up and down.

Sextus also met some acquaintances on the way up the mountain. They greeted him enthusiastically. Of course, there was envy and favor among them: "Yo, Sextus, you are back! I heard that you are going to be the head of the army. Congratulations! Your dad is also an official of Dionysia. Your family is really developed now! Take care of us in the future!"

"Sextus, congratulations on your victory again, and this time you can be divided into a lot of land!"

"Sixtus, my child Ji Si, you know, although he is not yet 18 years old, he is already stronger than an adult. Can he be allowed to perform military service in advance?"

...

Sectus was tired of coping for a while, and finally had to walk with his head down to prevent being recognized.

When he reached the top of the mountain, he quickly came to the location of the Temple of Jupiter. The impression of the magnificent temple has disappeared. The clean and flat open space covered with marble slabs appears in front of him, as if all the temple statues were It’s a fantasy, never existed before, and only on a lot of black cracked marbles can one think of the tragic mountain fire that my father said.

Sectus originally wanted to come here, but there were no traces of ruins here. It is no wonder that people who go up the mountain rarely come here, but walk to the cliff to overlook the panoramic view of the city of Rome.

He looked around in a daze, and suddenly saw a lot of people busy with the temple of Janus on the other side of the mountain. He walked involuntarily.

As the distance drew closer, he saw that many of these busy people were Romans, they were cleaning up and cleaning the ruins, and a few Dionysians, they were using tools to measure the ruins, use wooden boards to record and depict ...

Among these people, Sextus saw a familiar figure.

"Stollo!" he shouted.

Storo turned around, saw him, and nodded.

Sextus made two steps and rushed to him, looking at the young and promising young man who was once known as the Roman civilian, but now with a haggard expression, he couldn't help but ask: "You... Are you okay recently?"

Storlow was silent for a while, and said softly: "I joined Dionysia, there is nothing to worry about..."

"I heard my father say..." Sectus said sincerely: "I am very sorry about your father... and your father-in-law! I hope you are not too sad!"

Stolot smiled bitterly and sighed: "My father was plagued with plague. This was the punishment that Jupiter had dropped. No wonder no one. But I heard that at the barracks in Sutnikum, he received Dioni Doctor Ya's very good treatment and care..."

"This is indeed the case!" Sectus interjected: "Not only your father, all Roman soldiers infected with the plague have been well treated and taken care of by the Dionysians, so there will be a lot of infections The plagued Roman soldiers survived!"

"Yeah, even as a son, I can only stay away from my father who was plagued with plague, so I am very grateful to the Dionysians at this point!" Stolot said without fear.

"And I heard that my arrogant relative infected with the plague was completely cured after receiving treatment?"

"You're talking about Servius, yes, he has indeed removed the plague and he has basically recovered."

"This is good news. At least my wife's sister doesn't have to stay at my house anymore, so that I can calm down." Storow said with a bitter smile: "For my father-in-law, I have persuaded him to surrender many times, but I was He refused, he finally set himself on fire...I was actually prepared..."

Speaking of which, he couldn't help thinking of the importance and care he had for the Roman nobleman in the past. He couldn't help but look sad, and said with a heavy tone: "It's a pity... his corpses were burnt into coke, completely unable to get rid of other corpses. I can only recognize them in the tomb beside Mars Square... these days, my wife goes there every day to worship..."
