Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

"A ten-year covenant?! It is said that Diaonia is about to occupy the Italian Apulian region and give him another ten years. I am afraid that the entire Italian peninsula will be owned by Dionia!" Preta Kuba But stood up and shouted loudly: "You, we must understand that there are only two powerful countries in the Western Mediterranean - Carthage and Dionia, which makes Dionia stronger and not good for Carthage. !"

“Is there a large area of ​​Nubia in Apulia?! Occupy the entire Italian peninsula?” O'Reilly said with a smile: “Don't say that there are our allies in central Italy, Rome, and fierce Celts in the north. Even if Dionia can occupy the entire Italian peninsula in the future, we have already completely occupied Numibia, and I am afraid that we have completely controlled Mauritalia and Nubia. A small Italian peninsula has Numisbia. Is it big with Mauritania?!"

Just as the two sides debated, Adia Ruba stood up.

The leader of the neutrality was highly respected, and the shackles of the venue became quiet. He said with a strong heart: "You, don't forget the purpose of our Carthage City. The ancestors came to the West hundreds of years ago. The Mediterranean is not to occupy more land, nor to compete for the hegemony of the Mediterranean, but to trade, in order to obtain the resources of gold, silver and other metal minerals in Iberia and Sardinia to meet the needs of the mother. Today, the trade of Carthage and other Phoenician city states in the Western Mediterranean is far more than those minerals, but Haimao is the nature of every Carthage, the reason why the city of Carthage is growing, and our mother. The reasons why Bontel and Sidon can live more freely under Persian.

And war is the natural enemy of trade. It will consume our resources, take away our customers, and make the market become depressed... What benefits has the Carmen made to a series of wars in Sicily in the past decade? No good, some are just death and decline! If everyone in the room has forgotten the tragic past ten years ago, then go to the cemetery outside the city and walk around, you will know how the people hate the war! Peace, Carthage needs peace, only peace can make Carthage prosper! Therefore, I suggest to continue to form an alliance with Dionya. Carthage will continue to have a trade market in the Western Mediterranean. The development of Carthage will be even faster! ......"

Adiaruuba’s emotional speech has received a lot of response from the veteran.

Hanno drums his hands, but he doesn't quite agree. And Aydia Ruba’s idea of ​​“developing sea trade and living in peace with Dionya” is somewhat different. He is actually wary of Dionia, who has made allies in Sicily. The northward expansion of the Italian peninsula shows the ambition of this Greek kingdom. In fact, in order to delay the expansion of Dionia, the Senate agreed to support Tannic and to increase support for Rome.

It was only that Carthage’s rule in Numibia was not stable, and the idea of ​​Mauritalia’s idea during the time was also a proposal he had made many times. He hopes that while gaining more land and manpower, the influence of the Carthage Senate will be able to cover the land of the Iberian Peninsula controlled by the Magoniide family, both at sea and from land. When the internal troubles are lifted and the soldiers are strong, he is happy to fight with Dionya to wash away the nickname of his "coward" and push the Hano family to the prestige of Carthage and even the Western Mediterranean. To a new height.

At this moment, he immediately expressed his support through the opportunity of Aydia Ruba.

With the promotion of the Hano and neutral veterans, the Tanico tribe was abandoned, and Carthage and Dionia were re-elected on the agenda.

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

A few days later, in the war palace of Turai, in the war room next to the King’s Office, several ministers of Daves and the Ministry of Military Affairs were negotiating the recent fighting.

These military ministers are:

Military Minister Hilos, who is responsible for the management and coordination of the various departments of the Ministry of Military Affairs, while holding the right to assess and recommend the promotion of soldiers and team officers.

The military commander of the Ministry of Military Affairs, Hilo Nimes (a few years ago, Daves proposed several times to transfer him to the chief executive of a city and was rejected by him), the unspoken former mercenary leader Diligently staying in this position for more than ten years has made a great contribution to the construction of the Legion of the Kingdom of Dionia.

Captain, the chief of the military affairs department under the Ministry of Military Affairs, was the post that he re-elected four years ago. At present, the two wars carried out by Deonia can go smoothly, and they are inseparable from his full support behind him.

Chief of Staff of the Ministry of Military Affairs, Filipius.

The staff department is a new department that Daves ordered six years ago. Its role is to collect intelligence from surrounding forces, to make strategic plans for the expansion of the Kingdom of Dionia, to deduct specific wars, and to provide effective services for the king. It is also recommended that it is also a school for cultivating the strategic thinking of young officers. In today's ten legions, the deputy chief of the army is basically trained in the staff.

Since the South Italian War, Felicius has received some criticisms in the Senate and the Military Affairs Department. Many people believe that he made some command mistakes in the Battle of Lamato River and made the Fourth and Fifth Legions The loss was so heavy that even Drakecos died.

Davers had to transfer him to this new department, both to protect him, to use his experienced expertise, but also to avoid the shortcomings of his lack of strength and the inability to become a good commander.

In addition, there is also Tolmid in the room, he is also in the staff, as a staff officer to assist Filipinos. However, he is more active and often travels to and from other military departments to understand the military training, military needs, and the specific conditions of the various legions, and to provide detailed data for the staff to develop operational plans.

At the same time, Tolmid also served as the commander of King Duffs on the battlefield, and often came to the palace in the usual time to report to Davers. Therefore, although he is not a veteran, no one in the military department dares to swear at him.

In the center of the war room is a huge sand table showing the shrinking Sicily and southern Italy's mountains and rivers and plains. A few years ago, Davis organized the most outstanding craftsmen in Dionia, according to the details provided by the Ministry of Military Affairs. The map, spent more than half a year with clay and sandstone, shaped such a three-dimensional, more accurate image of the sand table. At the beginning, when the chiefs of the Military Affairs Department first saw it, they were amazed: this is another amazing work after King Deverus was inspired by God!

This military sand table is regarded as a treasure of the kingdom by the Ministry of Military Affairs, and it is impossible for non-Kingdom ministers to see it.

"Your Majesty, the Sicily battle report that was just sent this morning, after the occupation of Hera, Prosous took advantage of the time that the West Kyle rebels had not yet arrived, and repaired the city defense. Waiting for Akonis to lead about 15,000. The name of the West Kyle rebels attacked Hena, probably because they did not have good siege equipment, Prosuous boldly left only three infantry battalions to defend the town, and led the main force to quietly leave, bypassing Achillion, and Raiding Herbetta, who is empty in the north..."

With a long wooden stick pointing to the town model on behalf of Herbita on the sand table, Felicius continued: "After another rebel town was quickly captured, the tens of thousands of people gathered by Arkanis The troops must have felt panic. They just attacked Hera on full day and stopped the attack, but they stayed in their camp for two days. And during this time, our allies, Leonidini, The troops of Tonys and the reserve forces convened by Kataney, Sikuri and Naxos have gathered in Achillion, and the Eighth Army has more than 20,000 people.

The Sicilian rebels began to retreat to Enna, in the process some tribes broke away from the Arkanis forces and ran to Achillion, demanding surrender... Prosuos said in the battle report that he was ready to smash the West Kyle When the army was unstable, he immediately led the army to attack Enna. Perhaps just as I am talking now, the Eighth Army has begun to attack the city of Enna. ”

Daves stared at the city of Enna in the middle of the sand in the middle of Sicily. He sank for a moment and looked up and said, "What do you think?"

"I was still worried that Prosuos, the commander of the attacking West Kyle, could take on this important task~www.novelmtl.com~ I didn't expect his performance to be so good! Still leave your Good vision!” Hilos first praised.

Capps also even claimed: "Yes, this Prosuos is really powerful! Before the order of the 'declaration of war' in the Senate has not been passed to Katane, he decisively led the army and quickly seized the action. Hena, completely out of the enemy's expectations. Then he used Hena City to attract the enemy's heavy troops, and led the main attack on Hebita. The successive victories made the enemy feel panic, and also shocked other swinging West Kyle. The tribes of the people, the team of Akonis is decreasing, and the auxiliary forces of the Eighth Army are increasing. Akonis has no advantage in terms of number and terrain. This war has no suspense, and it is estimated that it will soon end. ""

"Dare to decide, move fast, mobilize the enemy, weaken the enemy... Prosuos completely used the military principle of the "Diaonia Military Law", it is indeed an excellent army leader! We are all old!" Si sighed, and the heart couldn't help but think of the war years that made him unbearable.

When Sironis heard this, his eyes suddenly brightened, but he did not speak.

"The eighth leg of Prosuos can have today's victory. It is the full support and meticulous preparation of several adults in the military department!" Tolmid said with compliment.
