Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Chapter 1087 Lucias and Milon

"Are you support? Or do you not support? Say a happy word, don't be long-winded like this." Milon said impatiently.

"Since you want to be the chief executive of the district, don't worry. We will slowly analyze the situation before we can discuss good countermeasures." Lucias said dissatisfiedly: "If you only want me to say Happy words, OK! I agree to support you, you can go back!"

"Okay! Okay! I was wrong. You said, you said." Milon had to serve softly.

"Actually speaking, with your qualifications and political achievements, becoming the chief executive of the East and West Sicily area should not be a problem..." Lucias Sinker said

"That is, of course, if it was not for Cypriot's cleverness, he led the people of Trina early to support Dionysia. King Daveus was more fond of him, otherwise I had the right to fight for the wartime governor of Sicily. One post." Milon said a little scornfully.

Lucias' face changed slightly, and he persuaded: "Don't talk nonsense! Elder Cipros is smart and hardworking. Not only did he make a great contribution in the Western Mediterranean War, but he became our rotating presidency and assisted His Majesty with us. The Kingdom’s recovery after the war also provided a lot of help...If these words fall into your majesty’s ears, I am afraid that your wish to become the chief executive of the district will be defeated."

"I'm here to talk about you, how can you be stupid to preach, and you are too careful." Milon said disapprovingly: "In addition, Your Majesty made a promise today that he will not interfere in the election of the district chief. "

Lucias's expression suddenly became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Milon, as your friend, I solemnly admonish you, it is best to always stay in awe of His Majesty Dapheus! I have been the rotating chairman for all these years, He spends a lot of time with His Majesty, he is far more powerful than you think! If he knows you are disrespectful to him, he has a way to make you never be a district chief, and I have to stay away from you in the future Far!"

Milon was taken aback by Lucias's mutated attitude, and he was shocked. He quickly changed his mouth and said, "Where do I dare to disrespect Your Majesty! I am just... Okay! Okay! I swear to Hades. Don’t talk nonsense anymore!... Now you tell me, what chance do I have to become the chief executive of the East and West Sicily?"

Lucias did not answer directly, but asked: "How many years have you been in eastern Sicily?"

"It's been eight years since I spent my time in Naxos!" Myron squeezed his hand index, and couldn't help but sigh.

"8 years is really too long!" Lucias also sighed: "Do you remember what happened to Antonios and Laodisian."

Milon suddenly sighed: "You mean..."

"I think you should be clear that in order to prevent that incident from recurring again, few veterans have been able to serve as chief executives in a town for more than 10 years or even 8 years. Although you are in two different Towns, but they are too close to each other and belong to the same region. If you become the chief executive of the East and West Sicily region, the time will definitely be more than 10 years... I think there will be some veteran clubs coveting this position when they are elected It's almost difficult for you to be criticized for your question!"

"This..." Milon felt as if he had taken a blow and slumped in a chair, but he immediately realized what he was, reluctantly rejuvenated, and asked, "You just said that you supported me in the election, did you say--"

Lucias smiled and said: "Although it is unlikely to be the chief executive of the East and West Sicily Region, you can compete with other regional chief executives with your qualifications and political achievements. Do you have any intentions?"

"Your Majesty just announced this proposal this afternoon. I just want to run for the Chief Executive of the East and West Sicily Region. I haven't had time to think about other things... But since there is not much chance of being the Chief Executive of this area, I can run for the Chief Executive of other areas. "Milon quickly figured it out.

"Then let's take a look. Which region of the Chief Executive is more suitable for you? It's easier to win?" Lucias analyzed unhurriedly: "The Chief Executive of Southern Iberia has been identified as Bagu Le, the chief executive of the Roman region is Assis, the candidate of the chief executive of the western region of Sicily... Although your majesty has not announced it publicly, it should not be you, excluding the East and West Sicily region...

By the way, there is also a Crotone area. If you want to govern our hometown, I am afraid that some veterans will question you at the venue and say that you want to be favoritism. In order to avoid trouble, we will also exclude it. Come down...

Although there are not many towns and small populations in the Corsica region and northern Sardinia, the mining and smelting of various metals there are very important for the development of the kingdom, so the weight in the kingdom is not low. The last time Lompori took office as the wartime governor of Sardinia was due to the urgent needs of the kingdom during the war. He was too old and lacked energy, and he was tired of serving in the local area. This time it is estimated that he will not be in Sardinia. The district chief of Niah, if you are interested, you can compete.However, you have never had the experience of managing a mine before, which may become the handle of your opponent's attack."

"I'm not interested in being a foreman at the mine." Milon said simply: "I have been in Sicily for too long. Since I can't be the chief executive of the East and West Sicily Region, I don't want to stay in Sicily anymore..."

"So, you won't compete for the chief executive of the Straits of Messina, Syracuse, southern Sicily..." Luciens said, suddenly realized what he was looking at and asked Milon: "Do you already have a goal?"

Milon grinned: "I was also inspired when I spoke to you. What do you think of the Chief Executive of Mesapi?"

"The Mesapi region... If the kingdom just conquered it, it was still very difficult to govern the people there. Now that more than ten years have passed, the Mesapi region has long become Like other parts of Greater Greece, it is not difficult to govern. As a result, it has no special features in the dozen or so regions newly divided by the Kingdom.

The population in this area is not large, the land area is not large, there are some fertile arable land, but the output is not within the top 5 of each region.There are also some good livestock, but it can not be compared with the Bruti area, Lucania area.It has both maritime trade and land trade, but it is not very prosperous... such a mediocre aspect in all respects, and the strength of each region in the kingdom can only be ranked in the middle of the region. Why should you choose it?"Lucias is a little puzzled. He knows that Milon is not a mediocre person. On the contrary, he likes to be proactive and aggressive. Choosing the Mesappi area seems to be not in line with his personality."

"The Mesapi region has a characteristic that is not found in other regions." Milon smiled mysteriously, and then said seriously: "It is the closest to the Peloponnese! The closest to the mainland of Greece!"

"You mean..." Lucias seemed to understand something from Milon's slightly excited face. He was surprised, but shook his head again and said, "This is impossible! The kingdom's current strategy is still Going north, not to mention that the Kingdom has not recovered from the Western Mediterranean War, the benefits gained in the war have not been fully digested, and it is impossible to wage another war in a short time..."

"Of course I understand these." Milon still insisted on his own views: "But sometimes the situation is developing rapidly, not what we want, just like the Western Mediterranean War, we also insisted on developing to the north, and no one came. I thought Carthage would declare war on us first.

The situation on the mainland of Greece is complicated. The war has continued for so many years. Maybe when a certain city-state paid some price and asked the kingdom to quell the war and moved His Majesty and the Senate. After all, we are so strong in Dionysia and far from the mainland of Greece. So close, these Greek city-states beset by war cannot be without ideas..."

Speaking of which, Milon leaned his body back and said leisurely in a more comfortable posture: "Now that the candidate for the Chief Executive of the Rome area has been determined, then I can only choose the Mesapi area to gamble, maybe Was there really a war during my tenure? By that time, maybe I will be like Cypros to take advantage of it, because the naval base Brindisi is next to Mesapi, and away from Greece. The nearest port town, Odrum, is in the Mesapi region, and not long ago the Athenian navy also landed on Corfu, allowing this Greek island close to the Mesapi region to attach to them..."

"You, even though you haven't led the soldiers to fight in person for more than 10 years, you are still so eager for war..." Lucias shook his head helplessly and said, "Since you have chosen the Mesapi region, we can do this. ... Let someone nominate you as a candidate for the Chief Executive of the East and West Sicily Region. After the election fails, when the turn of the Chief Executive of the Mesapi District is elected, you will take the initiative to participate in the election.

Since your first failure was not due to insufficient political achievements and seniority, but only because of the unlucky reason of'too long time', the veterans are likely to turn to support you out of sympathy.Of course, in order to be more secure, I suggest that you talk to Antaoris again tonight and seek his support."

"Antaoris...I haven't had much contact with him for eight years since I took office in Sicily." Milon seemed a little regretful.

"It doesn't matter. Before we joined Dionyssia, we knew Antaoris. Your relationship with him was good in recent years, and according to the new area, his mother state (Crimey (Sa) Also belonged to the Crotone region, we all belong to the same area..." Lucias encouraged with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll go in a moment." Milon answered simply.
