Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

But Max desperately wants to learn Dionysia’s language, and then integrates into this environment. He deeply remembers that the King of Dionysia, who defeated the great Camulus, split them into the army. Previous speeches:

"...Roman soldiers, Rome has merged into the Kingdom of Dionysia, and you have been defeated! You can always bear hatred for Dionysia.

But please don’t forget that when you broke through Vie, you killed all the males in the captured Vie City; when you occupied Sartnicum, Antium, Villitre and other Walsey In the territory, all the Walsey men you arrested were either killed or demoted to slaves...

And today, when you were defeated, Dionysia did not deal with you according to your past practices, did not let your young life end early, nor did you make you a lowly slave, but gave you the opportunity to become Citizen of Dionysia!

I believe that many of you have contacted the Roman reserve squad — your former compatriots, how much do you know what rights and benefits you will receive from becoming a Dionysian citizen, maybe not as rich as before, nor It may be possible to use power to squeeze other citizens, but you will become the citizens of the most powerful kingdom in the Mediterranean and envied by the people of other countries, to see a wider world and get more development opportunities!

Well, the Romans, in any case, the past Rome has died out, you are all facing a brand new beginning, is it continuing to hate, and finally suppressed and destroyed?It’s up to you to pick up the shield spear and fight with us to win the respect of the Dionysian people and open up a new future for yourself and your family. It depends on you..."

... depends on ourselves... Marx silently thought in his heart.

At this time, a man appeared in front of him, patting his shoulder, smiling, and asked with concern: "How is it? No problem."

Seeing this smile, he always reminded Max how he was treated meticulously by the doctors of Dionysia when he was suffering from the plague and despair, and finally let him live a healthy life to this day, which is that he did not hate too much The reason for the Dionysians.He believed that all Romans who were cured by Dionysians would have such a feeling, because it was the Dionysians who gave them a second life.

Looking at this Dionysian who has been more concerned about him, although Max can't understand what he said, he generally understood what he meant and nodded quickly.

"Let's disembark with us!" The team officer pointed to the dock in front of him, and picked up the wrapped shield gun and armor beside him.

Marx wanted to stop it, but he didn't speak Greek at all, coupled with the continuous vomiting, his body was indeed empty, and he could only watch the team officer open the package and let the other soldiers help him get one.

This scene made him determined to learn Dionysia's language as soon as possible.

In fact, Max’s judgment was wrong. What he saw was not a town, but Trina’s naval base.

Therefore, when other Roman soldiers who were not seasick sat on a passenger ship and entered the port of the naval base, all of them opened their eyes in surprise: what they showed was a port that did not know how many times larger than the port of Ostia, Numerous docks and pier bridges are spaced apart, protruding from the crooked coast, like a multi-footed centipede, formidable; a huge warship hovering on the sea surface on the other side of the port, sometimes stopping in a row, From time to time sprints, the sailors screamed one after another throughout the port...

Several Latin soldiers in the Third Army proudly told the Romans who were looking dazed: "There are five naval bases like this in our Kingdom of Dionysia (two naval bases in the First Fleet, towers Rantum and Castron), this is not the biggest one."

What made these former Roman aristocrats wonder was that they suddenly found that the strength of the Kingdom of Dionysia was far from what they could imagine. The unwillingness in their hearts dissipated a lot under this powerful deterrent.

The naval base of the Third Fleet is in Trina, but the barracks of the Sixth Army is not here, but in the Sileting. The two cities are tens of miles apart. For the convenience of going south, the soldiers on the shore did not He was taken to the Xiliting military camp, but rested directly in the new camp outside the naval base.

Since 10 days ago, Davers already had this plan, and wrote to inform the senate, and the senate gave emergency notice to Trina and the surrounding towns. The people on the farm were organized by the city hall to serve as the upcoming army The camp was built, so after the arrival of the expedition's army, the soldiers found that the camp had been repaired and everything was set up properly, and they did not need them to work. Since they left Rome, they have rarely enjoyed a ready-made one without labor. opportunity.

And when they settled down, the team officials announced another good news to them: "Your Majesty Daveus thanked you for your contribution to the Kingdom at Latham, and we specifically allow you to have a bonfire banquet tonight to celebrate!"

The soldiers cheered after listening, and the entire camp was boiling, except for those Roman noble soldiers who did not know exactly.

In the afternoon, the officials of Trina City Hall led the organized people, sending countless cans of wine, bringing hundreds of goats and other food to the entire military operation.Of course, more people came to the barracks to visit relatives in the Sixth Army.

In order to prevent them from disrupting the order of the entire barracks, the commander of the army, Tratinost, allowed the soldiers to meet outside the barracks.

This time he was on an expedition to Latham, and there were not a few casualties in the Sixth Army.People who learned that their loved ones were killed or seriously injured were crying in sorrow. People who saw their loved ones standing in front of them were crying in joy. In short, there was crying outside the camp, and laughter inside the camp. Stopped, forming a peculiar scene.

……………………………………

At dusk, the soldiers of the various legions led the team officers out of the camp and came to the already arranged wilderness: here are hundreds of wheat piles made of freshly harvested straw, they are in one The circle is distributed in a circle, there is a larger open space in the center, and a larger wheat pile also stands.

Each detachment sat around a heap of wheat, and the captains took several soldiers to the yinying camp, brought several cans of wine, and several large pots of stewed, hot goat soup, one of which had been slaughtered, washed, Chopped goats, a basket of fresh fruits, a basket of washed fresh vegetables, a jar of dried dried fruits...

The captain personally served the soldiers, filled the wooden cups in the hands of each soldier with wine, and poured lamb soup in the pottery bowl...

Although Max was not as excited as the other soldiers of the same team for drinking Turi wine, he was noble-educated and thanked the captain who looked younger than him.

The team leader saw that he had a good attitude, and said some words of encouragement. He could only nod slightly when he could not understand Dionysian at all.Finally, the team leader "haha" smiled, patted his shoulder hard, and then served the next soldier.

Then the soldier's attitude towards the captain was much more respectful, which made Max feel a little strange. Of course, he would not know that the captain's name was Adorius, the adopted son of King Dionia.

As the soldiers began to eat, the sky was gradually darkening, but soon the wheat piles were lit up, driving away the darkness of the wilderness.

"Boom! Boom!..." The majestic big drum sound suddenly sounded, and the original hustle and bustle of the bonfire was quieted down by the team officers' reminders.

Then, high and solemn chants echoed over the venue, making the soldiers put away the laughter on their faces.

Then, they saw a group of strange-looking people with different costumes appear in the center of the venue beside the largest bonfire.

"It's "The Birth of Hades"!" Some soldiers have already guessed the tracks of this large-scale drama and started cheering.

Dionysia’s large-scale drama has only been more than 10 years since its birth, but it has developed rapidly. It has now separated from the original pantomime performance, with its own chants and single and group singing and dancing (of course this is inseparable Open the enlightenment of King Davers), which makes the performance of large-scale dramas more diverse and more attractive to the Dionysian people. The track of "The Birth of Pluto" is one of the classics and is very popular among the public. The soldiers stopped eating temporarily, stopped playing, and watched the performance intently.

The first scene of the play "The Birth of Hades" is about brothers and sisters such as Hades, Zeus, Poseidon, and Hera defeating their father Cronus and beginning to divide the world.When everyone is arguing about gaining more benefits, Hades takes the initiative to go to hell, to care for and supervise the souls of all sentient beings after death. The gods are both puzzled by his firm choice and indisputable for him To be famous, to be ashamed only to achieve your ideal perseverance.

In the second act, Hades came to the underworld, which was chaotic due to lack of control. Hades invited Tanatos and Soupnos to be the gods of death and sleep, and convinced Minos and Rada Mandas and Eakos served as the three judges, surrendered the three-headed dog Gerberus to guard the gate, and Charon was responsible for the ferry boat... and finally returned the underworld to order.

In the third act, the underworld was well governed, and Pluto married the fertile goddess Persephone, the humans thanked him for his contributions, and worshiped him one after another, and finally he danced happily with his subordinates... …

The whole plot is carefully compiled by Priesinas and the priests. Most of the dialogue in the play is singing. The melody is written by Ferrosa, the famous music poet in the Kingdom and the teacher of the Dionysian Academy Nus led the students to do their best to complete, and the last collective dance choreography beyond this era was from the hands of Daphes, so "The Birth of Pluto" was carved by the hands of famous masters, the first time The public performance at the Hades celebration made a sensation in the kingdom.

Although Max did not look as fascinated as other soldiers because of the impossibility of speech, the actors' exquisite costumes, superb acting skills and beautiful singing still attracted his attention and made him try to guess the plot.
