Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

"Dion, I heard that you have organized the children to play games on the boat these days, and have given us a lot of trouble and done well!" Dionysius praised.

"I can't help you with your business. I can only do what I can do to help you." Dieng said without humiliation.

"A good one can do what you can!" Dionysius shouted, and he turned to look at his father-in-law: "I see 20 years later, Dion can become a talented Syracuse minister! ”

The usual serious Hipparinus showed a smile.

Heavy minister? Phillips licked his mouth in a slightly undetectable way.

"Stand up! You can't enter!" The yelling of the guards suddenly came out of the door, which made Dionysius feel tight. He just wanted to ask who he was, and he heard the sound of killing outside the door.

The screams of anger and the screams of screaming continually passed into the ears of the cabin, and everyone changed their faces.

Hipparinus was busy keeping the two children behind.

"I went out to see the situation." Philips said nervously.

"Don't go! At this time, Mejkolis should have arrived with mercenaries. It is not so easy to force me Dionysius!" Dionysius was calm, but his face was very unsightly, he I guessed who the attacker was, and my heart was like a storm.

The sound of "咣" sounded, the door was kicked open, and Dionysius was scared to "wow" and burst into tears.

Dionysius, Phillips, and Hipparinus were pale, and they saw Spartan warriors armed with scarlet scorpions, long hair, thick whiskers, and blood. The cabin.

Dionysius and Phillips looked at each other and his face was full of shock.

When seeing the instructor behind the scenes also stepping into the cabin, Dionysius screamed angrily: "Fibidas, what do you mean?!"

"It's what you see." Fibidas looked cold, and five or six Spartan fighters in front of him put on a fighting stance, flashing cold at the tip of their gun.

The young Dion had seen this terrible scene, and his father’s hand was shaking.

"I... I said that I don't go to Sparta, do you still have to... force me to fail!" Dionysius screamed, trying to suppress the fear in his heart.

"I didn't say I want to take you to Sparta." The cold words of Fibidas made the three people chilly.

"Fibidas, you made a vow to Hercules, to send us safely to leave Sicily, go where we are going!" Philips eagerly reminded Fibidas: "Sparta Dako is the hegemon of the Greek city-state! The blood of Hercules! It has always been the model of the whole Greek! Do you have to violate your vows!"

"I didn't violate it." Fibidas showed a smug smile and made the whole face look a bit strange: "I said 'guarantee safely to send you to Sparta', but you refused to go to Sri Lanka." Bada, so this oath will of course no longer exist."

"It turns out... you have already had a premeditated plan." Dionysius suddenly realized.

"You are not ready to deceive me from the beginning!" Fibidas sneered.

After the initial shock and fear, Dionysius regained some calmness. He asked: "Even if I don't want to go to Sparta and violate the will of your elders' council, I won't let you use a knife and a gun... Deal with me, why?"

Pfeidas looked at him and did not answer him directly. Instead, he showed a slight look and smiled. "I know that you are delaying time and looking forward to mercenaries to save you."

The calm and calm look of Fibidas made Dionysius feel bad.

"Meggie Collis!" Fibidas shouted, and soon the figure of the mercenary leader appeared at the door.

Dionysius and others are dead.

"Compared with you to go to remote places to suffer and suffer a good life, they are more willing to follow Sparta to win honors and land." Fibidas said proudly.

"But...Meggie Collis, are you stupid? Sparta is poor, you can't afford your salary! And we can, if you don't have too much money, we can increase it!..." Hipparinus is mad. Shouted, trying to make Megui Collis change his mind.

Phibidashaha smiled and said: "I have no money in Sparta, but you have it. The cargo ships are full of silver coins, and the mercenaries have long been blind!"

The situation was very critical. Dionysius finally lowered his proud head and whispered: "Fibidas, look at the friendship of the past, let us go!... Ah!... You can take silver coins and gold coins. Go, there are those warships, cargo ships, just let us go... let us leave! Believe me, I can recapture Syracuse and provide greater help for Sparta's hegemony!..."

Fibidas watched him.

For a moment, he whispered: "I am sorry, Dionysius, I just acted in accordance with the orders of the Presbyterian Council..."

"Why?! Why?! You know that the people of Herolus can't control Syracuse at all! Can't cope with the more powerful Diaonia! Only me! I can suppress the expansion of Dionia! I can Help you stabilize the Western Mediterranean!..." Dionysius’s emotions were out of control, and his sly expression scared Dionysius’s crying even louder.

"...Sparta has signed a long-term friendship agreement with Dionya..." Although this matter is not allowed to be made public, Fibidas feels that it is indifferent to let them hear: "One of them is for you." The life of Dionysius..."

"...It turned out to be like this...Davers...Daves in the hell!..." Dionysius was desperate, suddenly felt his legs weak, his body swayed a few times, and he fell down On the ground.

"Hey! Hey! Hey!... Dad!..."

"Brother!"

"Dionysius!"

......

The voices of these concerns were introduced into his ears, which made him feel extra warm. In the past, he was fascinated by his own hegemony. He had noticed this. He looked at the tearful son, the shivering Dior, and the calming Phillips, the bloodless Hipparinus, he suddenly turned to Feidas and said: "Fibidas, you can kill me, give my ... head to Daves! But I think the treaty you signed must not include my family and my friends, so... so I beg you to let them go!...even let them go to Sparta with you! Ah!..."

"Dionysius, my best friend!" Phillips shouted excitedly.

Dionysius reached out and stopped talking. He said, "Fili, my family may have to take care of you!"

Phillips eyes with tears and nodded hesitantly.

"There is really a life in the treaty as long as you are alone." Fibidas spoke up: "But in order to convince the mercenaries, I promised Meji Collis's request."

"What requirements?!" Dionysius was surprised again, and he surrendered to Megui Collis, who had been head down.

At this moment, he has raised his head, and his flat face is full of sternness: "Dionisius adults, every time you let us kill the city, they are obviously reminded, 'Don’t let go of an enemy, So as not to cause trouble to Syracuse in the future! 'I am doing it today according to your instructions."

Dionysius did not expect that what he had done in the past few years would be reported to his family. At this moment, he had no time to repent of the vengeful goddess. He took a few steps with his knees and pleaded with pleading: "Megrie Collis How have you been a mercenary to you over the years? You know it! Not only is it a good salary, but it also gives you land. It’s better to treat you than to treat my brothers! I trust you so much, you are rewarding me like this. Do you think about it... When you first came to Sicily, you didn’t even have enough food every day..."

Fibidas has some insatiable narration of Dionysius. He took a look at Megui Collis: "What should I do? You decide as soon as possible!"

Meji Collis looked at Dionysius, who was helpless and sad on the ground. What emerged in his mind was that the lord immediately repelled his promise after defeating the Carthage army under the squad, and ordered Meji Collis to lead. The mercenaries arrested a total of 127 democrats and relatives and friends who had to rush him to step down. Dionysius did not hesitate to order the "no matter how old or young, all executed," and the performer was Meggie. Collis, Dionysius's cold eyes were firmly imprinted into his heart.

We are by no means the Syracuse Democrats who lost their lives because of stupid compromises! Megui Collis was in a hurry and immediately shouted: "Brothers do it!"

More than a dozen heavily armed mercenaries stormed into the cabin.

Phibidas saw this situation and said: "Let's go."

The Spartan warriors surrounded him and retired from the cabin. He did not want to see Dionysius being killed, and he did not want the Spartan warriors to be contaminated with the blood of Dionysius and his family.

Who knows that desperate Dionysius jumped up, and the mercenary who had just rushed in was caught off guard, and he took the spear in his hand.

He held the spear and quickly stepped back, keeping behind Dionysius, and making an unpleasant tearing laugh like a nightingale: "Ha ha ha... Pfeidas, you Sparta thinks Signing a peace treaty with Dionya, everything is safe. I am! I bet that in 30 years, Sparta will be destroyed by the growing Dionya! Until then, there will be no more in the world. Bada, I will be waiting for you in the prison!! Meji Collis, you betray me today, the Spartans will abandon you tomorrow! Spartans will even deceive me, let alone treat you low-lying Mercenary!!..."

Pfeidas's face changed slightly. He didn't expect Dionysius to be in trouble and still arrogant. At this time, Mejkolis looked at him subconsciously, and Fibidas immediately shouted: "Don't kill them, wait for something!"

"Yes! Yes!" Megui Collis immediately issued the order.

More than a dozen mercenaries rushed up with shield lances, and it was what Dionysius could resist.

He shot three shots in the body and fell to the ground.

At the time of his death, the screams of his son and friends have aroused the guilt of Dionysius’s heart. He saw his respectful teacher, the great commander of Syracuse, the defeat of the Athenian army and the Carthaginians. Hemo Krates and the daughter of Hermo Krates, his beloved wife, both smiling at him...

He extended his hand with joy...

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

At this time, the new king of Dionia, Daves, led the first group of troops returning to Turui to go through the Arc de Triomphe in the city to Victory Square.

The road was crowded with people. They threw petals and waved ribbons. They excitedly cheered the warriors who saved the Alliance and defended their homeland.

The carriage pulled by four white horses stopped at the west side of the square and under the steps of the Great Hall. Davers steadily stepped onto the high platform.

"Your Majesty!" The respectful salutes of the veterans headed by Kunogora and Cornelus.

"Working hard!" After Daves returned to the ceremony, he turned to face the square.

I haven’t waited for him to talk, and the audience has already been cheering:

"Davers Kings Victory!!!..."

"Dionysian Union victors!!!..."

Note: 1. Dionysius.

Historically, Dionysius died in 367 BC. He won a first prize in a Greek poetry competition. In order to celebrate the victory of the tournament, he rarely had a drink and rarely had a drink. As a result, he suffered from excessive drinking. The fever, the doctor gave him a dose of soothing hypnotic drugs. After he took it, he fell asleep and never woke up, so there was also a "doctor poisoning".

After conquering Sicily, he launched several wars against the Great Greece. He was conquered by Jim. Cologne and Hiberian were destroyed and Crotone was occupied. He also incited the Lucanias to attack the territory of Turui, and was defeated by the Turais, but Turui led the army to counterattack the territory of Lucania, and the result was completely annihilated (this is what is described in the second volume of this article). The incident was just to make it happen more than a decade later. Turri, who eventually suffered a great loss, also surrendered to Syracuse.

After Dionysius conquered the Great Greece, he then focused his attention on the Adriatic Sea. He built several colonial cities on the east and west coast of the Adriatic Sea in an attempt to make the Adriatic Sea a tin. The inner lake of La Cuza. Among these colonial cities are Ancona, which we are familiar with, and Hadrian City (the predecessor of Venice).

At the time of the strongest Syracuse, its direct ruling area included most of Sicily and the southern part of the Italian peninsula, with a population of about 2.2 million. In Greece, many people of insight even tied Syracuse and Persia as threats to Greece. At several Olympic Games in Olympia, there were many scenes in which Greek people surrounded the camp of Syracuse athletes and protested and even clashed. Of course, this is also related to Dionysius's mercenary robbing the Delphi Sanctuary, although it did not succeed.

In the second half of the life of Dionysius, he has been fighting the restored power of Carthage, and defeated more and less, which limits the further expansion of Syracuse, for which Dionysius even transferred hatred to Carthage ally, Rome.

In 390 BC, the Gauls in northern Italy made a big southward attack on the Etruscans. Under the instigation of Dionysius, they defeated the Roman reinforcements and continued to accelerate southward. They crossed the Tiber River and captured the city of Rome. This became one of the most painful memories of Roman history. It can be seen that Dionysius is very good at dealing with aliens, so it is not surprising that he incited the Samonais to confront Tyonia in this article.

Dionysius has groundbreaking political wisdom. He implemented the different ruling styles according to the different regions in his jurisdiction. Later, the Roman system was very similar to it; he divided the arms and specialized training, and later Macedonia benefited a lot.

He himself is very temperate in his habits of life and strictly limits his children's misconduct, but the rule of the Syracuse people is indeed very strict, perhaps because his mentor and father-in-law Hermo Krates was democratically founded by Syracuse. Deceived and killed, his wife was also humiliated by the mob and died. He was seriously wounded and escaped from the dead. He was lucky enough to escape his life... These tragic experiences in his early years prompted him to change his mind.

Dionysius is a complex historical figure, and he hopes that his description can be like a tenth of the hero, and he is satisfied.

Second, Dion.

According to the famous historical figure in the "Greek and Roman Celebrity Biography" written by the famous Roman historian Plutarch, according to the time in the book, his age should be less than ten years old, and Dionysius is still not born. , or let them both forcibly reveal a face at the last moment, because there will be no chance after that.

As the "prime minister" of the next generation of Syracuse who was trained by Dionysius, Dior was once sent to Athens to study. Plato is his teacher and they have a deep friendship. Perhaps influenced by the democratic atmosphere of Athens, he was eager to assist Dionysius while also hoping that the young lord would be more democratic and wise, so he invited Plato.

Plato used the "virtue" to educate the little Dionysius, hoping to cultivate a "philosopher king." But not long after, Dionysius was tired of both of them, and because of the temptation of others, he returned to Philiptos who had been married to Hadelia for many years.

When the philanthropic philistos came back, he clearly pointed out that the set of Plato and Dieng did not apply to Syracuse. After some of his operations, Xiao Dionysius also suspected that the two had ulterior motives.

Plato's return to Athens, Dieng was also expelled from Syracuse. After a few years, he led the army back to Syracuse and overthrew the rule of the Lord. When the newly formed council wants to democratically elect a general, he believes that it is efficient to concentrate power. Any city-state resolution is best to have his approval!

As a result, his self-sufficiency made Syracuse's chaos not calm down, and eventually he died in the riots. Syracuse's strength was greatly damaged and he was declining.

I feel that he is a bit like Yeltsin. I don’t understand why Plutarch chose him instead of other famous people who have a greater influence on the history of ancient Greece, such as Ipami Lianda. Is it because Dieng advocated democracy and engaged in it? coup? !

Third, Herrose.

In the information I collected, the historical figure had very little information. He only knew that he was a supporter of Dionysius in the early days, and later opposed Dionysius's dictatorship. From then on, he became a famous Western saying. The "right of the monarch is nothing but a fancy shroud" can be seen.

Before Dionysius invaded the Great Greece, he fled Sicily and formed a coalition in the Great Greek Union cities to defend the Great Greece. As a Syracuse, he actually became the commander of the coalition. Do not understand why an outsider will become the commander of the Great Greece? Is it because he is famous, or is it because of the choice of other city-states to create contradictions, and he is accepted by everyone?

Herolis led the coalition forces to march into the Syracuse army that invaded the Great Greece, and was in the vanguard team and was in the forefront of the ranks. He did not send detective rides, did not send spies to conduct prior battlefield inspections, and rushed into the army without knowing the specific circumstances of the enemy. As a result, he was attacked by the Syracuse army in the vicinity of Xi Liting.

Herollis was not afraid. At the same time as stubborn resistance, he also sent a commander to inform the troops behind him to arrive as soon as possible.

As a result, the coalition forces continued to fight in the "oil-adding tactics" and were defeated by Dionysius. Hercules was killed, and the most powerful arm of the Great Greece was forced to surrender. The Great Greece could no longer stop the ambition of Dionysius to conquer.

Sometimes, the author really doubts that Hercules is a counter-intuitive, and this military commanding ability is too second! Therefore, everyone can understand that in this article, Tarantum’s governor, Dai Oliras, is easily involved in the ambush of the Meip coalition, because many Greek city-state generals’ commanding ability is really poor. And the tactics are also behind. In order to increase the level of excitement of the war, the authors also intend to raise their level, otherwise the Dionysian army formed by Dafos's advanced military theory ~www.novelmtl.com~ that is...

Fourth, Feidun

Referring to this name, it is estimated that many readers do not think of who it is. Filipd is the general of Lijim. Why do you want to mention him specifically? Because he is the only surnamed and historically recorded figure in the period of the Great Greece collected by the author (the other is Achta). Someone will ask Kuno Gorata and Cornelus? These are the fictional characters of the author. It can also be seen that there are too few historical records in the big Greek period.

There are not many records about Pittard. I only know that after the defeat of the Great Greek Allied Forces, he still led the Lijim army to fight with Dionysius, and he fought repeatedly and struggled, creating a very strong style for Dionysius. big trouble. So after the break of Lijim City, Dionysius killed his family, including relatives and friends, and it was also considered to be "three people."

Well, there is so much nonsense, there are suspicions of scams, but I collect so many Sicilian and big Greek materials, and finally I should sum up and sum up this feeling should be worth some money, haha!

The glory of Syracuse created by Dionysius in history was interrupted by the Dionysian city-state alliance led by Daves in the world, so whether Dionia can create far better than Syracuse Brilliant? Please continue to watch the next volume of "The Kingdom of Ten Years"!
