Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Due to the strength of the country and the prosperity of trade, the currency of Dionia (Hadis silver coin) is not only popular in China, in the ally, but also in the entire western Mediterranean. Due to its beautiful image, the purity of silver is high. It has also become a popular commodity. Other city-states like to use other coins to exchange Hades silver coins. As a treasure, they will not be used as a last resort.

As a result, the silver coins that are circulated cannot be fully recovered, and the new silver coins re-cast with other city-state silver coins are depleted. Year after year, the total amount of silver coins circulating in the country is decreasing. The Hades silver coin has become more valuable, which has aggravated such a vicious circle. Therefore, in order to maintain the credit of the Hades silver coin, it will not reduce its purity. In this case, to promote trade prosperity, it is necessary to have its own source of silver mines, which is why the Ministry of Commerce has been supporting the election of Enona and Poseidonian secretly with the Sardinian people.

Now there is a new channel for getting silver mines in front of Aonis. If he can catch it, what does this mean? wealth! right! Even - Ionis fantasized to the personal reception and praise of the King of Dionia.

So he was moved, but he still kept a little cautious: "Diaonia and Carthage have an agreement, we can't trade here -"

"Gaddis certainly can't, the Carthage here is too strict! But in Huelva, my master has considerable power there, can quietly avoid the check, the uninhabited beach near Recreativo Trading……"

This person is obviously well prepared. His plan is fairly thorough, but after all, it is the first time to deal with it. The value is not trustworthy... Ionis hesitated and finally could not stand the temptation to decide to take risks.

After the artificial ship of Ionis was temporarily repaired, under the warning of the Cadiz official, he led the crew to drive the merchant ship smoothly to leave Cadiz and sail east. After the return of the Carthage patrol boat, he let the merchant ship again. Turning around, on the side of the continent of Afrika, sailed a large circle, bypassed Rissus, Cadiz, and reached the west of Huelva.

Huelva is located near the mouth of the Odile River. Before the rise of Cadiz, it was the metallurgical center of the Phoenicians throughout the Western Mediterranean. A large number of ore from the mainland mines flowed down the Odile River and transported to Wei. There are hundreds of smelting furnaces in the town, and even the ore of Sardinia is transported here to smelt. Even though Cadiz shared some of the ore smelting tasks, the metal smelting output of Huelva is still very amazing.

On the ship, Ionis saw a lot of smoke columns on the coast and went straight into the sky. The excitement in my heart can be imagined.

Under the guidance of the Huelva, who was lurking in the crew, the merchant ship drove to a remote barren beach.

But when the Huelva went to inform his master, Ionis was nervous and somewhat uneasy. He thought to himself: If he found that he was deceived, he immediately left the boat, but it was a delay, anyway. This time, the sea trade has already lost.

Who knows, things are going very smoothly. After waiting for a long time, the mine owner appeared, he brought a lot of slaves, and a team full of silver bricks.

After deliberation, the two quickly reached an agreement: Ionis exchanged nearly 500 pounds of silver bricks with a boat that was originally intended to be sold in Sagunto.

Ionis apparently made a profit, but apparently the mine owner also gave Ionis sweetness for continued trading in the future.

Ionis suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and agreed with the miner on the time, place and goods for the next trade. This was satisfied with the merchant ship, and in the cheers of the crew, ready to drive away from the barren beach.

At this time, several Carthage patrol boats suddenly appeared, completely encircling them, and once again captured Ionis and his crew.

When the frustrated Ionis was taken on a patrol boat, on the boat he saw the man who persuaded him to come to Recreativo. Before he was pleased, he was sneer at him.

At the time of Eoniston, a heart sinks to the bottom: this is a conspiracy...

He regained his former ambitions and was authoritarian.

On his right hand side, is the eldest son of his brother Chimirko, Hasdruba, who only knew that the young generals who had stormed and beaten after more than ten years of tempering, have become somewhat stable and restrained, just that The fierce eyes look forward to Shenghao.

On the left hand side is Hirko's second son, Haka. Before coming to the Iberian Peninsula, he was still a thin and childish boy. Now he is already in the middle of his life. His body is slender and his body is strong, but his face is pale. There is some exhaustion between the eyebrows. He has become the most indispensable arm of Margo. Now he is mainly responsible for the internal affairs of the Iberian territory. The rule of the Magonid family can be stable here. .

Sitting in the middle of the horse, Kisgo is a member of the far-reaching family of the Magonid family. He stood out in the process of expanding the territory and fighting the indigenous people. He was given the weight of Ma Ge. He was careful in thinking and used the soldiers. After several times of raids on the back of the territory, he was seen by him and eventually repelled, which guaranteed the security of the Iberian territory.

"Uncle, Huelva came the news that the things we planned have been successful. The greedy Diony businessman and his merchant ship filled with silver bricks have all been captured. Will you send them to Kasbah?" Taiji?” The wooden chair that Haka sat on was specially made. The back of the chair was tilted backwards, so he could talk half-lying. As soon as he spoke, his face was exhausted and his eyes sparkled.

Some serious faces on Marge’s face finally showed a smile. His eyes sparkled with long-awaited excitement. He said in a deep voice: “According to the plan you made, I also informed Preta Kuba and let him promote the matter. Go out and let everyone in Carthage know that the Dionyns are not only licking our silver mines, but they have already begun to take action!"

"Would the old guy really give in and support Rome against Diaonia?" Hasdrubar did not have much confidence in the Carthage Senate, and asked uncertainly.

"Big brother, now the city of Carthage is full of dissatisfaction with Dionia. Both the people and most of the veterans hope to give a lesson to Diaonia, but Hanno has not made a resolution-" Haka sneered: "It’s just that he is a poor self-respect for Carthage’s most powerful person, and this thing will be a spoonful of oil in the burning stove, if he dares to delay, Then his Sofitel should be the end!"

"I hope that this old guy will continue to block the passage of the resolution in the Senate, and let him taste the pain of being bombed by the people!" Hasdruba said with gloating.

"Don't underestimate Hanno, he will not easily give up the dominance of the Carthage Senate! We still need to remain vigilant, always pay attention to the development of the situation in Carthage!" Marco reminded, for Hanno He is deeply aware of it, otherwise he would not helplessly choose to withdraw from Carthage and travel to Iberia.

"Once Dionya and Carthage fight, my uncle, when will we send troops?" Hasdruba looked at Ma Ge and looked eager to look.

"I think it's best to have a failure in the army of Carthage, people think of it and call on our Magonid family, the Senate to ask us to send troops!" Haka suggested ~www.novelmtl.com~ Hakka's words let The other three people have a good spirit. This time, the Magoniide family has been preparing for such a long time, and its purpose is to restore the glory of the family and regain the leadership of the Senate.

"In case, the Dionyns retreat because Rome was supported by our Carthage?" Kisgo asked cautiously.

When Marco and Hasbrodaba slammed, Haka said affirmatively: "Diaonia will not back down! Because the king of Dionia has always claimed that he is the most committed person and from Diony Since the establishment of Asia, this has basically been done, so the people of Dionia and their allies have always trusted him. If this time he chose to give in, let Rome annex his allied Worth, this will not only let The chilling dynasty of Dionya will also cause the people of Deonia to lose their trust in him. The King of Dionia is a wise man and will never make such a mistake!"

After listening to Ma Ge, he nodded again and again, and exclaimed: "Despite the youth, the King of Dionia has had to fight against powerful enemies several times in order to fulfill the covenant. In the end, he won the game and he has to admire it! ”
