Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 6 Chapter 53: Declare war on Locke

In fact, there are some cultural connections between Diony and Lockley. When the city of Tuli was founded, the Athens wise Plotegora made laws for it. He did not use the laws of Athens casually. Instead, according to Turui, a city with many immigrants and complicated sources, he chose the famous Locke. The lawmaker Zale Ukus developed the law of Tulari based on the law enacted by Lockley. The Union of Dionynia was established on the ruins of the original city of Turi, and it took the essence of the original Turif law.

Zale Ukus is known for his severe punishment. He has made a rule: "Anyone who wants to change any of the current laws must first use a rope to cover his neck. Once his proposal is not passed, then He will be strangled." Zaleukus’s law enforcement is fair and selfless. When his son broke the law, he was dug up in accordance with the law and he did not hesitate to execute it. But out of father and son, he dug his own one's eyes instead of his son.

There are such characters to set an example, there is such a law to govern the Rocky people, so unlike the enthusiasm and excitement of the general Greek city-state citizens, the Rocky people are known as the big Greeks in accordance with the rules (of course, one more Dionia later) People), at the same time, let them know how to obey orders, so they can fight against Crotone, whose strength is stronger than it.

Or perhaps because of the harshness of the law, Rocky's city-state protection is not like the powerful gods of Zeus, Poseidon, Apollo, Athena, etc., but the two gentlemen. The goddess - the **** of love and beauty, Aphrodite and the Queen of the Underworld, the goddess of fertility, Parsifone, and also built a magnificent temple for the two goddesses. Therefore, when the Hadias celebrations are held in Deonia on September 9th each year, a few Rocky people will also rush to participate, not only because of the different rituals and lively scenes in Turui, but also because When the Dionyans sacrificed Hades, they will also celebrate his queen, Parsifne.

At the same time, it is precisely because the patron saint of the city-state is the two goddesses, the social status of the Locke women is higher than that of other city-states. They are allowed to show their veil in public and have partial inheritance rights. This is somewhat similar to Dionia.

But the Greek forces with similar cultures and similar customs are regrettable to become enemies.

Frocker Leon has not yet arrived in Lockley, and the Lockley Council has already known about the assassination of the governor of Dionia. Although Turui blocked the city shortly after the incident, but Diaonia was the hegemon of South Italy, not only in Lockley, but also in other cities in the South Italian League, and in Tarantum. More or less ears are stationed or hidden in the port and port of Turai, so that you can keep abreast of the movements of Dionia, so that the city can make corresponding countermeasures in time. Therefore, when such a big riot occurs, it will naturally be observed by the people who are concerned. After quickly discovering the situation, they either rushed to their own city-states by boat or horseback.

Florecion set off on the second day, but fell behind him. His boat entered the port of Rocky. The public officials at the port quickly spread the news to the council in the city. The reason why the messenger will appear here at this time is surprising.

A few of Lockley’s generals and parliamentarians know a little about the real insider of this assassination, such as Dionysius’s wife, Doris’s brother, Domodus Kas, who is wishful thinking of Diony I am afraid that I will go to Syracuse again, but I did not expect that the messenger of Dionia will appear here.

Despite the surprise, Frocker Lyon was invited to the Chamber of Deputies for his etiquette and respect for the southern Italian hegemony.

Like other democratic city-states, Lockley is the highest authority. In addition to discussing and deciding important city-state events, the usual political affairs are handed over to the General Executive Committee and the Council.

The council is simply a reduced citizen assembly. It divides all citizens participating in the citizen assembly into a number of groups, usually ten groups, and takes turns to participate in city-state affairs through the council. Therefore, there are eight generals in the chamber. Hundreds of members of the council, this is already a big battle, several times more than the number of the Dionysian Senate.

Florecion was slightly prepared, and at the invitation of the chairman of the council, he walked to the center of the venue.

"The members of the Lockley, I, Frauclair, who came here as the messenger of the Union of Dionya, came to represent Locke on behalf of all the citizens of Dionia!" Froclair’s straightforward explanation .

His voice just fell, causing a burst of horror and commotion among the surrounding lawmakers. He did not stop telling, but increased the volume: "I think you should all know the great governor of Diaonia, the courageous and lovable commander of the citizens - the terrible incident of Davis' assassination, which aroused the whole The anger of the Diaonian citizens! Now, an assassin was captured on the spot. After the trial, he revealed the truth and admitted that he was hired and helped by a Lockley businessman named Orolas to successfully sneak into the map. Iraq, to ​​the governor Daves -"

"This is filth! This is a smash!" Locke Chief General De Modokas immediately interrupted the words of Froclair, and retorted: "Rocky will not provoke you Diaonia for no reason! People are not so stupid!..."

"But the facts are facts! After a detailed investigation, Turiy has all the evidence! The Diaonian Senate has repeatedly confirmed that the instigator behind this assassination is your Locke!" Froclaw's sturdy fingers The people under the scene shouted in anger.

The council suddenly blasted the pot: "Diagna Senate is a fool! What does this have to do with us, why don't you question Syracuse!"

"This is obviously a common trick used by the grown-up. He has repeatedly assassinated political opponents against him in other city-states in Sicily!"

"What evidence is conclusive, this must be forged! Diaonia only dares to blame Locke, because you have no courage to provoke Syracuse, even if the businessman called Aurora is a Rocky, He may have been bought by another city-state. Have you ever consulted him with Dionia? It is so easy to conclude that we are instructed by Locke!"

......

Frauclair ignored their arguments and embarrassment and continued: "To this end, the Dionysian Senate and all citizens are extremely angry with Locke's despicable behavior and demand that you accept punishment. First, repent of Hades. The mistake must be sent to the Turui to make a public apology to the Senate; secondly, to compensate the Diagnosians who were injured and killed in this incident; finally -"

In the face of the angry and indignant venue, Frocance was stunned and loud: "Sever the alliance with Syracuse! If so, Deonia will forgive Lockheed’s previous actions, and Accept you to enter -"

When Froclay’s words were not finished, they were overwhelmed by the screams of anger: “Rocky did not do anything wrong, why accept the unreasonable demands of you, Dionia!”

"This is humiliation! The humiliation of Locke!!"

"This is a conspiracy of Dionia! They want to break up the alliance between Locke and Syracuse!"

......

The members of the council were not only roaring, but even a few people rushed to the center of the venue despite the dissuasion of others.

Running in the forefront is Dio Pantos, one of the generals. The grumpy general rushed up and gave Frocleley a punch and knocked it to the ground.

Just as he had to kick another kick, another general, Metlow Phoenix, hugged him and yelled in a hurry: "Don't violate the sacred tradition of 'the city's messenger is not infringed', don't violate the laws of Lockley. !"

Hearing the word "legal", the Rocky people who had just rushed to the edge of Frocleley were all frozen.

Metrophonis took the opportunity to shout: "Demo Dokas, you will not persuade them, they will be severely punished for breaking the law!"

Originally on the sidelines, the lively Demodokas was mentioned by Metropolitan. As the chief general, he had to stand up and first argue: "The shame of Locke is the enemy of Lockley, and everyone maintains the honor of the city. How can it be considered illegal?!"

"Adult, right!" Someone immediately echoed.

"Okay~www.novelmtl.com~ Everyone has retired. The venue is a sacred place. We are a civilized city-state, not a Turui, we can't make a shameful messenger..." Dokas said as he stepped forward, and the members of the council also listened to the seats.

Demodoccas served as the chief general of Lockley for nine consecutive years, mainly because of his in-law Dionysius. The original alliance between Rocky and Syracuse was to defeat the former enemy Crotone by the power of Syracuse. I didn’t expect Crotone to be weakened, but he also drilled a more powerful Diony After the establishment of the Asian League, especially after the establishment of the South Italian Alliance, Locke became more isolated in the Great Greece, so it relied more on Syracuse, thus making the status of the Demodokas family more prominent, plus On the way, Dionysius deliberately supported his big brother, and the influence of Demodokas in Lockley was not what it used to be.

Dio Pantos snorted and returned.

Frocker Lyon stood up swaying and still refused to admit defeat: "The old city of Turui was humiliated because of the humiliation of the messenger, so it was finally burned..."

"Dyonia, want to be reluctant to look at the place, here is not what the so-called Nanyi League of those who please you Diaonia, here is Locke!" Demo Dokas sneered, proud Loudly said: "Rocky has neither and does not bother to do anything to assassinate your consul, so we refuse any unreasonable request from Dionia, please turn back!"

Refuse! Although this answer was unexpected, Frocker Lyon was still delighted. He did not panic and wiped the blood from his mouth with his fingers. He reached out to Demo Dokas, licked it, and then unfolded. A touch of blood on the palm of your hand. He looked awkward and said in a word: "That means war!"
