Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

The roadside suddenly cheered, and soon the cheers spread throughout the plains of Sobari.

The people completely eliminated the last worry in their hearts and began to sing and dance to celebrate this hard-won victory. Some devout believers simply canceled the plan to go to the port, turned to the Temple of Hades in the city of Turai, and thanked Pluto for the blessing of Dionia...

The news was sent to the venue of the Senate, and it was also a jubilation.

"It seems that the decision we made before is correct! After the Daphus became king, the victory soon came, and Hades responded to our prayers and really blessed the Union of Dionia!" Lesenas said loudly with excitement.

"Yeah, thanks to the daring of our Senate to make such an amazing decision, we have today's victory!" Mariji also responded.

At this time, most of the veterans had no anger at the time when they were forced to elect Daves as the king. They were more fortunate in their hearts. They expressed their approval for the words of the two.

Kunogolata did not resent the two people as usual. He took his gaze back from the two and said loudly: "From the battle report brought back by the messenger, His Majesty Dave has already led the army. The Syracuse people are trapped in the West Riding, and the final victory is not too far away from us! But now the biggest problem for the Alliance is food!"

"The Honourable Knogorata is right, although the existing food is enough to supply the troops we fight outside for two months, but for the people of Dionia, especially the free and prepared citizens, their The grain reserve has bottomed out. Now that the port is open, the merchants who come to trade raise the price of grain, so that the people who have selflessly donated money for the alliance and donate food will pay more for the purchase of food! I am afraid that the war will not end. The people of Onia will consume all their savings, which is not conducive to our recovery after the war!" Cornelus said with anxiety.

"These businessmen are simply too odious!" Stromboli said angrily: "The price of the grain they sold has doubled and is still rising... Mariji, as a business officer, you should think about it. Vigorously rectify these odious businessmen!"

Marji said with a smile: "We have taken some measures, and we have also negotiated with these businessmen who sell food to Turui, so we can put the price within three times, which is already our best effort. However, there is a shortage of food in the league. The people have great demand for it. The people who buy food are more than one day, and the price increase is inevitable. We can't force merchants to sell food at a fixed price."

"Why not!" Stromboli said loudly: "We must first guarantee the interests of the people. We should immediately pass a plan to let these merchants sell the grain at a cheap price, otherwise they will not be allowed to resell the goods in the league! ”

"Can't do this!" Mariji hadn't spoken yet, and Melsis called first: "This is a stupid act that undermines the Greeks' free trade tradition! Later, who else dares to come to Turai to do business, if the port declines? , can we still receive the business tax!"

"Our Dionya is such a huge territory, so many people, I don't believe that greedy foreign businessmen will not come to do business!" Stromboli sneered, as an Amendora, he is Merchants don't have much affection.

"Even if we use the means of coercion, those businessmen can not sell food in Turui, but drive to Heraclea or Crotone." Marji reminded the elders: "At the time, our people are the same." They will go there to buy the grain, and they will complain that we have added so much trouble to them! Instead of leaving them in Turui, at least we can take some measures to control the price slightly. After all, Now that the war is not over, the situation of the federation of food shortages will continue. These businessmen are risky to transport food. If you can't make a huge profit here, I am afraid no one will be willing to transport the grain again!"

After this was said, the veterans including Stromboli were all sad: Yes, whoever asked Dioria to be short of food, must rely on these businessmen!

"I don't know how about Ancitanus's situation in Afrika?" Kunogolata remembered Ansitanos with an important mission.

At this time, the entrance to the venue was pushed open, and the guards rushed in and whispered in the ear of the rotating chairman, Kuno Gorata.

Kunogolata immediately smiled and said to everyone: "You, rest, Ansantas returned, and he came back with Carthage's ten large cargo ships, full of grain!"

The original degraded venue once again burst into cheers: "We have food! The people are saved! Ansitanos succeeded!..."

"I didn't expect it to be the "Greek enemy" that Sicilian slammed - Carthage helped us!"

"I said, Hades would not let the people who believe in him suffer disaster, he realized his promise again!"

Just as the veterans of the Senate rushed to the port of Turui and welcomed the arrival of the Carthage of the Carthage, Hilois, Hieronymus, Fiddle, and Leeds led the 1957 of the Lijim Allied Forces. The soldier set out from Trina and marched to Hibernian.

When I arrived at the city, I found that the gates were wide open, and the Hibernians took the initiative to leave the city. Last night, the news of "the defeat of Locke’s army" has already scared the Hibernians, and the performance of Locke’s refusal to enter the city to participate in defense and escape to Medma is even more intimidating the Hibernians. In the city, there were only a thousand civic soldiers in the city who rushed to hold a citizen assembly, and finally made a painful decision... When they discovered the next day, "tens of thousands of Diony soldiers killed the city of Hibernian. When they did not hesitate to surrender.

Before the division, Davers had discussed with Hilos how to deal with these Loyle's allies, so Hilos accepted the surrender of Hiberian, but asked: Every family in the city must surrender protons to guarantee their loyalty.

In the face of the huge Dionysian army, the Hibernians had to agree.

Under the low city, the Hibernian people cried and reluctantly bid farewell to their children, and the scene was bleak and touching.

Hilos was unmoved, sending a thousand troops to **** these hundreds of children to Trina. At the same time, he made a new request to the Hibernians: collect the food in the city as much as possible, and provide the Dionysian troops as rations. Otherwise, the soldiers of the Dayonia will go hungry, and their children will not have the first Eat something.

Today is a man-made knife, I am a fish, and the Hibernians have to yield again.

The Daley coalition was stationed outside the city of Hibernian, assisting the Hibernians in collecting food, sending sentries to the south to scout the enemy, and let the engineering camp lead the soldiers to build siege equipment for the next attack on the city of Medma. Well prepared.

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

At the same time, Davers, who learned that "Caulenia has returned to the South Italian Alliance", once again wrote a letter and sent a fast horse to the city of Cologne. The letter wrote: "...I am very happy to Kao Lun Nia made the right choice. After hearing this news with Lucias and Cipros, I was very happy! Now the Syracuse army is in Dionia, Crotone and Trina. Under the heroic attack of the soldiers, the power is constantly weakening, and it is believed that it is not far from the day of its defeat.

Therefore, we hope that Cologne, as a member of the South Italian Alliance, will mobilize all the citizens who can fight in the city, take up the shield spear and launch an invasion to the territory of Lockley, so that this is the chief culprit in this cruel war. I also felt the pain of being ravaged by war, and let it not rely on your attack to send out reinforcements to help the Siracusa who were besieged in the West Chamber to ensure that we successfully regained the West Chamber and annihilated these evils. aggressor! Deonia, Crotone, Trina, and Lijim are looking forward to your actions! ......"

This letter made the Caulenia Council an emergency meeting. Obviously, the main purpose of Daves’s letter was not to praise the correct choices made by Coulenia, but to urge them to take immediate action and not stand by. The last sentence is more like an implicit threat.

The Bologna on the string of course knows the serious consequences of rejecting Davers's request, so the Citizens Congress quickly passed the resolution "Attacking Lockley".

Although there are a thousand civic soldiers in Cologne trapped in the West Chamber ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ but Cologne is still the least lost in this war in the southern Italian city. In the afternoon, Cologne quickly mobilized 4,000 civic troops.

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

The Coulenian troops have just left the south, the main force is dispatched outside, the city is empty, the Rocky has long been unreliable on the enemy of several decades, and has been closely watching the movement of Coulania, the detective quickly returned The news.

At this time, Lockley had been shocked by the bad news that was followed. The Syracuse army was defeated, the Locke main force was defeated, and the Hibernian city was in danger... Now the Coulenian army suddenly goes south, not for the sake of Helping Lockley come, any reasonable Rocky person will make this judgment.

The sharp turn of the war made the chief general of Lockley, Demodoccas, panic. He actually abandoned the style of the dictatorship in the past six months, and convened a parliamentary meeting.

However, there was a strange scene at the council. Demodoccas repeatedly asked several times: "The **** Coulenians violated their promises and invaded our territory! Now the situation is urgent, what can we do? !"
