Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

A part of the mercenary hand of the East Gate City took the shield spear, rushed down the wooden wall, attacked the Potentia fighters in the city, supported the Grummantum who could not support it, and the rest of the mercenaries ran to the gate. Turning the locked winch, the east gate was opened, and the follow-on soldiers swarmed in.

The Pau Titian soldiers who defended the East Gate suffered from front and rear pinching and supported.

Lusau received a command from Poulter and was really shocked. He did not expect that the tribes in the city of Grumendum had another rebellion. His first reaction was not to worry about the situation in the East Gate, but These warriors who are afraid of their problems also have problems, because most of the more than a thousand warriors are tribal warriors who have returned to the city and returned to the city. In addition, the enemy of the south gate attacked fiercely. He did not dare to disperse his troops, so he refused to send them. Reinforcement.

However, when the Potentia fighters stationed on the mountainside received the order, they immediately went down to the rescue. When they arrived, the companions in Dongmen City were in a difficult situation. The leader of the team did not make any consideration and took the lead in the enemy.

The reinforcements of Potentia made the Eastern War situation complicated: mercenaries and Grummentum tribal fighters slammed the East Gate garrison, while the Grummentum warriors were again attacked by the Potentia, four forces This narrow area in the city and in front of the entrance to the mountain road smashed into a group...

The first reaction was Zantitipis, thanks to the "Dyonia Army Law". During this period of training, Zandiparis was repeatedly asked: in non-special circumstances, the army commander must not kill in the first line. .

So this time siege, he followed in the back team, encountered such a chaotic situation, with rich experience in the battlefield, he quickly made a decision, ordered the mercenary to slowly retreat to the city wall, and informed Kexi to lead him. The soldiers bypassed the houses from both sides and surrounded the enemy.

The retreat of the mercenaries allowed the Potentia fighters in the hard battle to see hope. They thought that the enemy couldn’t resist it, so the morale increased, and the Grummentu people felt desperate. They were originally the rabble of their fighting spirit. Broken, but as the Potentia fighters moved forward, they gradually surrounded them, and they could not escape and they had to fight for survival.

However, the Bologt on the top of the mountain was frightened. He saw the scene: the enemy was in an orderly, the formation was basically not retreating, and the enemies behind the gates were from the houses on both sides. In the past, gradually formed a large encirclement, surrounded by the Potentia garrison and reinforcements of the East Side, including the Grumman Tum, while some enemies stood on the head of the city and raised in their hands. It’s the javelin, the condescending, the distance is so close, it’s almost a must-have...

Pollet closed his eyes painfully. Now he can be sure that the enemy is from the terrible Dionysian League. The soldiers of Lucania are full of fighting passion, but the formation has always been loose, but not so strong and tight. Formation.

When Pollett screamed at Lusau who did not obey the order, he hesitated whether he would send the last strength of his hand to the eastern battlefield where he could not see hope...

The deadly javelin rain and the ferocious attack of the mercenaries finally led to the defeat of the East Gate garrison. The narrowing of the encirclement was like tightening the lasso of the Bontenia reinforcements. The hopelessly they finally chose to surrender.

Borrell, who was suffering from the loss, eventually did not send out his only 500 soldiers, but stayed on the top of the mountain.

Next, Zantei Parris and Ksima led the army to attack the south. Lusau, who had already been difficult to support, lost. On the way to the west, he was killed by the uncontrolled Grummantum.

When it was dark, the Dionysian army defeated the defenders in the east, west, and south. The whole army entered the city of Grummantum, and the 500 soldiers who had only the top of the mountain, Pole, were terrified when the army approached.

At this time, Hermon held the torch and went up the mountain alone, ready to persuade Pollett.

In order to preserve the lives of the tribes, Pollet finally agreed to surrender. The soldiers had to lay down their weapons, open the gates of the mountains, and go empty-handed with Hermon.

Polett resentfully said to Hermon: "Do you help the Greeks to kill their own people and seize the land of the same people, not afraid of the anger of the **** Asinu?!"

Hermon turned back and said meaningfully: "You are wrong, I am not helping the Greeks, but helping the Lucanias, and Ashinu God will only be happy about this!"

Dionya captured Grummantum in the case of 600 casualties, and Lusau and his party members were slaughtered.

A few days later, Potentia signed an armistice agreement with Dionya, and the captured more than a thousand Potentia fighters were safely sent back to Potentia.

Different from the fall of Niutum, the news of Grummantum's change to the Lord quickly spread throughout the Lukaria region, causing huge waves among many small tribes and even multi-party forces.

Dioria did not take further military action, but gradually implemented it according to a pre-planned plan: Bagul served as the city's chief executive of Grummantum, and Hémon served as the city's intermediate judge. Sisters was transferred to Grummantum as a mid-level inspection inspector and Kesima was appointed as the patrol captain.

The first thing that Bachule took office was to take over the ramp camp between Niutum and Grummentum. Secondly, only 2,000 soldiers were left in Grummantum, and the remaining 3,000 fighters and mercenaries of Zandiparis returned to their homes in Niutum, Turui, Asprostum, etc. In order to alleviate the pressure on the supply of rations, there are several tribes in the city of Grummentum.

The next thing to do is to fulfill the promises made by Wesbach and Hermon to the small tribes around Grumendum, accept them to join the Dionysian Union, divide them into settlements and pastures, and abolish the former Gru. Mentum and Potentia's many exploits to them...

Cincinnag was sinister and cunning after learning that the Dionysian Union had occupied Grummantum. On the bright side, Picosis, who had been hit hard, had to send messengers to Turui to express the goodwill of peace.

Even Galacoso, who rarely participated in the disputes between the Lucania tribes, sent messengers to try to know the attempt of this powerful new neighbor.

Potentia was forced to sign an armistice agreement with Dionia because of the captivity problem, but as the largest Lukania tribal alliance in northern Lucania, the Dionya raid hurt its dignity and anger The tribal leaders of Potentia were only crushed by the steady big leader Pu Amo, who chose to bear.

The strong Greek atmosphere of the Dionysian League, so unique in the Lucania region, immediately attracted the attention of another Greek city-state in the region, it is Elea.

Elia is also one of the many Greek colonial cities established on the Italian peninsula during the Great Colonial era in Greece. It is decades later than the earliest city of Kumai, Elia, Picosis, and Poseidon. Adjacent coastal cities have been established. Compared with the other two cities, Elia, which is sandwiched in the middle, seems to be somewhat obscure, and in the process of the southward movement of the Lucanias a hundred years ago, Poseidonia and Picosis successively fell. Elia, who is weaker, survived stubbornly, but Alicia, surrounded by Lukaria, is at risk of being destroyed at any time, if not later between several tribal associations in Lucalia. Contradictions, such as Potentia and Picosis, Potentia and Grummantum... made Elia a buffer zone, and the Lukanias’ full-powered attack no longer appeared.

But for decades, Elia's days have not been better. Some of the land outside the city has been occupied by aliens. From time to time, it will be harassed. People out of town have become a very dangerous thing. It is easy to be attacked by Lucania. Man captures become a slave. Therefore, the Elias rely on the production and processing of handicrafts, as well as the development of maritime trade, cargo transshipment, port services, etc. to barely maintain the operation of the city and the lives of the people.

Now the emergence of Dionya, let the Elias see the dawn.

Therefore, after deliberation, all citizens decided to send a messenger to Dionya, the emerging Greek city-state alliance, to express their willingness to form an alliance.

The member of the council, Kaneos, happily took over this glorious mission.

But it is obviously impossible to go to Diaonia by land. Potentia and Picosis will not allow him to pass through their land, so they can only take the sea. The passenger ship does not need to bypass the Strait of Messina because Eli The Asians knew that Raos was an ally of Dionia.

The passenger ship carrying Canos, with a strong southerly wind, sailed south like an arrow.

Kanios stood at the bow and thought about the mess. His Etruscan slave Eno finger east and suddenly shouted: "Picosis!"

Kanios looked up and looked in his view: the distant east land was just a small green cloth with a small white dot, which was Picosis - used to be Elia The sister city, nowadays has become a nest of aliens, Elia's nightmare.

While Kanos was saddened by the former Picosis, he also made up his mind: Never let Elia repeat the same mistakes!

Because it was a downwind, the ship sailed for two hours and arrived at Laos.

Canos has been to Laos before, and he knows more about the port situation. At that time, although Romas was occupied by the Lukarias, it did not prohibit trade with the Greeks, but the habits of the Lucanias. - Like looting, and discrimination between races, making its reputation not very good, so the Greeks and Laos direct trade is not much.

But today, Kanos sees in the port of Laos: the merchant ships entering and leaving are inexhaustible, and the densely packed labor of each dock does not stop loading and unloading cargo, floating in the sea of ​​foam on the harbor. In addition to the boat, there are still many food and garbage residues, so it attracts countless seabirds to hover and feed.
