Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 7 Chapter 22: Prince Adoris

"One...Opole." Elems said, in a blunt Greek language.

The young man took a drachma from his pocket and threw it to Erlems. He then crouched down and picked up a wooden barrel. It was made by hollowing out the center of the trunk of the fist and polishing it. The simple 陋 wood cup, the cup is full of milky white water, end in the hand, heavy. The young people did not abandon their rudeness. First, they drank a sip. After tasting, they were surprised. "The taste is very good. You have mixed goat's milk in the pulp water, and grape juice. You should add honey, just this goat's milk. There is nothing wrong with it, how did you do it?"

The young man who spoke was Adoris, the adopted son of King Divine of Dionia. He was 18 years old and was the first to participate in this war against Danny as a legionnaire. Although he has no interest in cooking, he has a lot of food in his home all year round.

Elems pretended not to understand, looking down for change.

Adoris did not ask again, and took out a drachma and threw it to him: "Don't look for it again, give me ten cups of water." He looked around and said: "Brothers train hard, I Treat yourself, drink some pulp to quench your thirst."

His teammates cheered: "Thank you, Adoris! Generous Adoris!..."

Elams hurriedly and his wife poured water into each wooden cup and handed them to the thirsty soldiers.

"I said the prince, don't just ask your teammates to drink the pulp, and we are! We are also very thirsty!" a soldier shouted loudly not far from the market entrance.

prince? ! Elims curiously looked at the young man in front of him. In his memory, the title of "Prince" is the son of Petchi, the son of the former King Tremonia. Due to the death of Tremone in the Battle of Brindisi, the tribal warriors directly under his death were almost completely exhausted. As a result, after the war, because of the great damage of the royal family, Puchetti was in chaos in the country. "The name, but because of the lack of any big tribal support, can not become a new king. After the Dionyrian invasion, Wadarka took his family and fled to Epirus on the other side of the Adriatic.

The young man in front of him is tall and burly, with big eyes and thick eyebrows. Unfortunately, the childishness left on his face masks his mighty power. Erems does not know whether the name "Prince" is true or false.

Adonis turned back and said: "Anfias, you shout again, you believe it or not, I will let you not drink water today!"

The soldier was not afraid. He smiled and responded: "As long as you treat, I will not shout."

Adoris glanced at him, but he couldn’t help him. After the South Asian War, Diaonia almost completely occupied the big Greece, Crotone was forced by the situation, and they had to rely entirely on Diaonia to rebuild the new city and restore the prosperity of the past, so the people finally chose Incorporating into the Kingdom of Dionia, Lucias, Milon and other high-profile members of Crotoned were elected to become Dionysian elders, and Anfias was the son of Lucias, following his father to the map. Lie, and became a classmate of the Adoris school in Turui. In the adulthood of Adoris, in order not to be overly taken care of, he specially requested Davers to go to the Fourth Army, centered on Crotone, to serve as a Legionnaire, thinking that no one would know himself. Who knows that the fourth legion met Anfias. It turned out that this adult did not set the domicile in Turui but became the birthplace of Crotone. The identity of Adoris was leaked.

Adoris understood the personality of Anfias's dead skin. He looked around the market and turned to the pottery jar at the side of the booth. He asked, "How much is this tank of water?"

Ellers's heartbeat accelerated and quickly replied: "Two drachmas."

"You have 15 cans here, I bought them all. If you come here, you give him a cup of water and drink, can you do it?!" Adoris said very simply, while in the purse. Count 30 drachmas.

"OK! OK!..." Ellers nodded again and again.

There was a louder cheer in the market, "The Prince of Adoris triumphed!" There was a sudden shout in the cheers.

Damn Anfias! Adoris gasped and screamed, and immediately shouted: "Brothers, just Anfias told me, today I invite you to drink water, wait for the victory to return to Turui, he wants to invite everyone to drink beer. !"

"Where do I have -" Anfias is arguing, the soldiers are already excited and shouting: "Anfias, I did not expect you to be more generous than Adoris!"

"Anfias, we can't wait to get on the battlefield, then win, go home and drink your beer!"

......

The laughter in the market continues.

Erems was busy sending water to these young soldiers, lamenting that these young soldiers were fearless and fearless, and did not know the cruelty of the war, reminding him of his youth.

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

In the Dazhong military camp’s big army account, this time the army commander Alexis, who is responsible for attacking the Dani, is wondering a letter written by King Davers, because at the end of the letter, Davers wrote: "...On the north shore of the Ovanto River, this place where there has been a glorious battle in history, I hope that you will also win a brilliant victory not to lose to the predecessors!..."

Alexis thought about it and couldn’t think of any big battles in the vicinity. So he asked the adjutant who graduated from the Tuli School with excellent results: "You can know about Matthews." Have you had any fierce battles near the river?"

Matthews, the older son of Bagul, thought a little and immediately replied: "I don't know."

Is it that the battles that took place here long and long ago have not been recorded, and that the majesty as a deity can be known through the inspiration of Hades... Alexis can only think this way, Davers The encouragement in the letter raised an ambition in his chest.

Of course, he would not know that the "glorious battle" that Davis’s letter said was not in the past, but in the history of the past: in the Daonian military camp, there is another place called Canni, about ten miles east. The Carthaginian army was stationed there, and the great commander Hannibal led 50,000 troops to cross the river, and fought with 80,000 Roman troops. Through his ingenious arrangement, he eventually won the Roman army and created the whole army. One of the most brilliant battles in the history of ancient Western wars. This also caused Daves to have an impulse. He wanted to come over and personally command the war. He was short-lived with Hannibal. Finally, he gave up. After all, Danny and the previous Rome were too different to be worth it. He personally shot.

Daves, who is not rich in historical knowledge, does not know that another battle in the south of the city of Ausculum in the northwestern part of the Ovanto River in the last few decades of the previous history is quite Famous - Ascurum battle, Epirus King Pirus led the army to fight the Romans again for the second time, although the final victory, but the loss, so that Pirus created do not want to be with the Romans again The mind of the battle, eventually he led the army to leave Italy and went to Sicily.

"The head of the Arminus army is coming!...Olympus army commander!! The head of the Gio Gris army!! The head of the Ledes army is coming!..." The big guards kept calling out loud.

After several army chiefs entered the account, they completed the military ceremony with Alexis and sat down.

"You are the head of the army." Alexis sat in the main seat and solemnly said to them: "We have been here for seven days, and the legions and auxiliary forces, as well as the military food, have arrived. People are also gathering on the other side, so I decided to cross the river tomorrow and attack the enemy."

"It’s a long time to attack! Staying here for so long, we are ruining our soldiers!" Amintas immediately raised his hands in favor.

"Amintas, I see you being smashed by yourself." Oliver, next to him, smiled.

"Well, you Oliver, dare to tease me, come to a football game in the afternoon, the first legion vs. the 4th Legion, you and me as the quarterback, who lost, who jumped around the training field, dare not dare ?!" Amintas loudly invited to fight.

"I am not afraid." Oliver euphemistically refused: "I will go out tomorrow, and I will assign tasks to the Legion in the afternoon to prepare the soldiers and how to play."

"Looking for a reason!" Amintas whispered a whisper~www.novelmtl.com~ He also knew that Oliver was right, not entangled.

"Commander adults, will the monks come out to intercept when we cross the river tomorrow?" Gio Gris asked cautiously.

"Very very likely!" Alexis simply replied: "According to the information sent back from the north, the king of the king did not want to go out to fight, but Askrum, Sipontum, Herdonia. (Herdoniae)...and the great princes of many towns, who insisted on blocking us from the territory of the Dani, so that their kings would eventually gather their troops on the other side of the Orfanto River. Their strength is less than ours. Relying on river operations can increase their advantage. They should not easily let go of this advantage, so they are likely to be on the other side of the line and stop us from crossing the river."

"In this case, we will go out in the early morning tomorrow and cross the river at the fastest speed. The channel and the army did not have the speed of our Daonian army so fast. When they arrived on the other side, we were early. I have already crossed the river." Oliver made his own suggestion.

"If that's the case, the Dani people are likely to shrink in the city of Herdonia on the other side, not to come out to fight with us. This is undoubtedly not conducive to us annihilating the main force of the Dani people, and will delay our conquest of the entire Dani. The time in the area increased the casualties of the soldiers.” Alexis shook his head.
