Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 3 Chapter 11: Proposal on slavery

Daves patiently explained to him: "Whether it is better to use the sticks to force them to work and they volunteer to work?"

"Of course the latter."

"More importantly, I don't want them to be slaves, but I want them to be citizens of Amendola. Only in this way will we continue to grow our strength! And you think about it, one day, when you are in Lucania. When the indigenous people shivered with fear under the threat of our shield spear, they saw that some of the soldiers in our team had the same appearance as them, speaking the same language, wearing Greek armor, eating Greek food, and The Greeks did not talk in a restrictive way, what would they think?"

Assisi pondered for a while and said uncertainly: "They may surrender."

"Yes, Bagul, they are the role models of the Lucanias, let them know that they will surrender to us. They will not only be abused, but will live a good life. Think about the way Persian treats aliens, and we will compare with Persia. Doing better, because we will treat the aliens more equally, accept them more as our citizens, and let them enjoy the same rights as us. Only in this way will we eliminate their barriers with us and let Amen Doral quickly became powerful!...” Daves said earnestly and passionately. On the way to this era, he did not want to be a lone walker. He wanted to spread his political ideas to the surrounding. People, infect them, change the narrow city-state thinking of the Greeks.

Assisi is convinced: "The ruling official, you think really far!"

"Yasi, I heard that you didn't pick a wife this time, are you interested in picking a Lucania woman to be a wife? Otherwise, I will ask if he has a sister, but you will do it with him. Relatives," Davers said jokingly.

Assisi immediately remembered the vicious appearance of Bachule, shaking his head again and again.

"Really, if you really marry a Lucania woman. Wait a day when we conquered the Lucania region, maybe I will appoint you as the governor of Lucania." Davers is half-joking and half-serious. Said.

Governor? ! Assisi remembered that in Persia, he saw the state of Asia's Governor Tisafnis, and as a young man, he was really moving. He did not think about it. In the entire Mediterranean region, the Governor’s position was only available to the Persian Empire, and the Governor was only appointed by the Persian King...

Looking at the back of Atheistus, Daves still wondered if he should set up a low-level public office under the ruling officer - the clerk, so that Assisi can do things right, and Davis can do it. It has cultivated a group of like-minded young people and will become his good assistants in governing city-states in the future.

Davers was thinking, Christovia came in and told him: "Olivers is here."

Davers has some doubts: What is this guy doing so late?

Oliver's voice has been passed in: "The ruling official, your house is really big! If no one leads, I will definitely get lost... Hey, this marble statue is really good, which masterpiece is the masterpiece? Look at the contours of these muscles..." Oliver East pulled a big call.

Davers took his eyes and said: "If you don't say anything right, I will drive you out!"

"Don't! Don't! I really have something to help you!" Oliver hurriedly said: "The Archon, you must help me!" He cried.

"What is going to say?!" Daphus was impatient on the surface, and his heart became more interested in Oliver's affairs.

Oliver suddenly became tweaked and whispered? "I think... I want to ask you to help me...to...to Mariji."

"What? Raise the pro?" Daves did not really understand this time.

Olivers took a breath and then said aloud: "I like Margaret's daughter Mitra, I want you to help me to marry Mariji!"

Davers learned this: It turned out that Matones had been joking in the past few days! When did this guy fall in love with Mariji’s daughter?

Davers couldn’t remember what Mariji’s daughter looked like, but she remembered that she was a small, shy girl.

"Do you like people, do people like you?" Daphus first had to figure this out.

"She certainly wants to be with me!" Oliver said confidently.

"Maliji knows about this?" Davers asked again.

"He doesn't know. However, Mitra's mother is very much in favor of the two of us, but she can't do the Lord."

Of course she can't do the Lord. In this era, whether it is the Greeks or the Persians, men are the masters of the house. If it was before, with Oliver's debauchery, Davers would not consider this matter at all, but since that happened, he has indeed changed a lot. Instead of robbing women, he will discourage others. One is his own savior, and the other is a person who will be regarded as an arm. Davers is happy to see their combination: "I will make a kiss to Mariji and try to match you, but the key depends on you. Performance." Davers's voice just fell, Olivers was happy to pick up: "Great! Great! Davers, you are a great man!" Oliver excitedly gave Daves a tight Hug.

Watching Olivers sing and jump out of the courtyard, Davers smiled: he was sent a good card!

..............................

The next morning, single new citizens protested in front of the Senate, asking for a solution to their spouse’s problems and making recommendations: they could accept a woman from Luca.

The Senate held an emergency meeting to discuss the matter. In the continuous protest outside the hospital, the veterans of the Senate, headed by the chief veteran Dafos, reluctantly passed the resolution (Daves and the new citizen veterans are all acting) And agree that the new citizens will be Lukania women who were enemies of Amendola.

At the same time, the Senate also passed another resolution: to turn all the Lucania prisoners into city-state slaves, to work free of charge until they die. But any Amendola can not harm these slaves because they are the wealth of the city.

After that, Daves made another motion.

Seeing Daves and proposing a case, Cornelus is not consciously nervous, because Dave's proposal repeatedly breaks the tradition of Amendola, so that Cornelus has some slight depression, but This proposal is relatively normal.

Before he attacked the Lukaria tribe, Daves made a promise to the slaves: give them freedom after the victory.

After annihilating the Lukania coalition, Turui had brought back more than a thousand slaves they had sent to Daves, and brought back Daves’s request: to honor the pre-war commitments and give them free. The remaining three hundred slaves, which were looted by mercenaries in Persia, accompanied them through countless battles and tribulations. According to Daves, these slaves are our own. Therefore, more than twenty elders passed the Davis proposal.

However, another Davis proposal was controversial: the slave who became a free man could leave freely and could apply to become a citizen of Amendola.

Stromboli first stood up and expressed strong opposition: "Amendo Lara never had this precedent, let the slave become a city-state citizen! If you do this, Amendola will become the laughing stock of the big Greece!" The identity of an old citizen veteran.

At this time, Antonios retorted: "Please note that after the passage of the previous motion, they are no longer slaves, but free people. Every city has a precedent for accepting free citizens as citizens, and Amendola This is even more so, tolerantly accepting us outsiders, let us become citizens of Amendola, including a Persian! Why can't we be tolerant of these free people! And we are already starting to discuss about Dave The Immigration Act proposed by the Stuarts is now the first beneficiaries of this bill to those who have been slaves, are now free, and have contributed and sacrificed for Amendola, isn’t it right?”

The new citizens all agreed, and the old citizens were silent.

Amintas stood up and told himself that he was saved by a slave when he was fighting in Persia. Finally he said loudly: "They are not slaves, but our brothers! We should give them back!"

Herpps briefly describes how the slaves of the medical camp assisted the doctors around the clock~www.novelmtl.com~ to rescue the wounded.

Then, Melsis also exaggeratedly said: How can his slaves quickly calculate the money, allocate materials, and make no mistakes, thus providing the best guarantee for the mercenaries to win. And proudly claim that they are the best managers!

Although there were only 21 people at the meeting, the atmosphere was gradually heated up. Daevs did not need to speak at all. This proposal was passed. After the discussion, the resolution was formed: these free people apply for confirmation of Amendola citizens. After two years of study, living in the territory of Amendora in two years, must learn to speak Greek, familiar with the law of the city of Amendola, no record of breaking the law, the expiration of the two-year expedition, pay to the city state With two hundred drachmas, you can get a ready citizenship. When there is a big action in Amendola, if you can participate voluntarily, such as war, you can shorten the period of inspection according to the merits.

The veterans at this time did not realize that the passage of this motion, together with the last Davers Immigration Act, had a profound influence on the history of the Mediterranean and Greece, and that the example of Maliji and the three hundred slaves becoming Greek citizens became An important jurisprudence of the city-state under the rule of Firth to accept free people and slaves (that is, the legal principles that can be followed).
