Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

The last sentence made Clyston look bright. She smiled and said: "Your Majesty, make a joke to you. Why are you doing so seriously? Every time you ask me to ask me not to do it seriously! ”

Having said that, she lifted her upper body with her hand and leaned against Daphus's couch. She almost leaned on his chest and waved her eyes. She said softly: "In these few months, you have been busy with drought. It’s finally raining today, you should relax, let me and my sister accompany you tonight...”

"Sister!..." Cristian, although her voice was very small, she was still able to hear the love of Grace, and she suddenly became blushing.

Davers listened to some heartbeat: the drought in the previous period and the possible wars in the next period made him stressful. He really needs to relax!

He is preparing to tease a shy love of Grace, a female slave through the rain and fog, hurriedly rushed: "Master, the guard came to report, the Emperor Aminta insisted on coming to see you!"

So late, Amintas is coming to see me? ! Davers’s heart moved, gently licking the shoulder of Kristo’s scent, and said with a smile: “I will go to see Amintas first, and you will wait for me in the bedroom at night.”

Said, he got up and went to the room.

Watching Daves leave, the smile on the face of Clithista disappeared, and the look became serious. He said, "I don't feel strange when I love Grace?! It rained for the first time in eight months. I was not so happy, and it was so late, Amintas came to see, there must be something important happening! I think, I am afraid it is a war!"

"War?!" Ai Ge Sisi was shocked and showed some worries at random.

Clithista stood up from the couch and shouted to the outside: "Molina! Bring the kids in, get rained for a long time, easy to catch cold."

After that, she looked at Ai Ge Si Si, and undoubtedly said: "Tonight, our sisters will accompany you so that you can relax and go to my bedroom."

"...good...well." In the end, the concern for Davers was better than the shyness, and Ginnie nodded hesitantly.

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

"Your Majesty, I am here to ask you to send our first legion to Wolsey to help them repel the Romans!" In the room of Daves, Amintas bluntly said his intentions.

Daves was not surprised. When he heard him come to see him, he already had this speculation in his heart. He looked at the veteran who had begun to spend white but still strong, and said with a strong heart: "A Mintas, my old friend, Rome is a small enemy for Diaonia. You are the most experienced army leader, and the first legion you led is the most powerful army. Our true enemy is in the south, on Sicily, in Afrika, once Carthage is really declaring war on us, your first legion will be the first to be sent to Sicily to face the country since the founding of Dionia. The most powerful enemy - Carthage! The first legion is to be used in the blade, I hope you can understand!"

After listening to this, Amintas looked a little hesitant, but he quickly became firm again: "Your Majesty, the Second Army, the Fourth Army, the Fifth Army, and even the Sixth Army are not weak now. In the First Legion, they can completely defeat the attack of the Carthaginians. But the fight against Rome in the north is a rare opportunity for independent leadership. I hope that His Majesty can give me such an opportunity!" Amintas said quite straightforwardly. But this is his style.

Davers saw the resoluteness in the eyes of Amintas. He suddenly realized in his heart that over the years, the comrade-in-arms who had followed him from Persia to the Great Greece had given him many support, but never asked for a return and kept sticking in the army. Resolutely executed his orders and became his sharp knife to attack the enemy, but his heart was not without care.

Antonios led the army and conquered Syracuse in Sicily; Alexis led the army, conquered Copthorne, Enona, and later led the army to conquer Dawny; Hilos, who had a smaller qualification than him Leading the army and conquering the Rocky area; even Prosous, who became a Dionian citizen after the establishment of the Union of Dionya, led the army alone and conquered the West Kyle. People; recently, Lhasa, who was from the Lucanias, led the Third Army and the Campania coalition defeated the Kautini.

And Amintas, who believes that his qualifications are older than them and whose battlefield experience is richer than them, is definitely a resentment. As a general, who does not want to lead the army, defeat the enemy and win honor for himself.

It seems that I am negligent! Davers tapped his back with his finger: Refused Amintas' request? This will undoubtedly hurt the old friend's heart, and will make the old comrades in the past feel that they have become the king, alienated their concern; but agree with Amintas' request? I am really worried that Amintas, who is brave in combat, will be in trouble because of the eagerness to make meritorious deeds! ...then what should I do?

Davers mused, and gradually his eyes lit up. He slowly said: "Amintas, I can inform the Military Department and change to the First Army to Worthy, but you must promise me a request!"

Before Amintas saw Davis slowly, he thought he would disagree. Hearing this, he was overjoyed and said quickly: "Don’t say it is a request, ten requests I promised, just let me go. !"

Davers laughed: "It's not a difficult request. It's very helpful to you. Purtolins, you should know, he helped Alexis to take Copsa and Enona, before helping. Zharu defeated the Kautini, he knows the situation in the north, I sent him to assist you, I believe that it is very helpful for you to defeat the Romans."

"Your Majesty, you can rest assured that I am very happy to work with Purtolins and will definitely get along well with him!" Amintas immediately made a promise.

Davers nodded and said: "Hurry and go back to rest, tomorrow you will be busy preparing for the expedition. It is best to lead the first legion after the day after tomorrow."

"Yes!" Amintas stood up immediately. After a solemn military ceremony, he felt that he could not express his excitement and gratitude, and he gave a powerful hug to Daves.

Davers looked at his eager departure, and he felt very touched: In the past few years, he has neglected the feelings of these old people. Is it necessary to think about them more?

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

After sending out Amintas, Davers was thinking: immediately rushed to Clithista’s bedroom to see if his two wives really waited for him, and Clithista’s previous joking proposal Make him quite tempted.

At this moment, the slaves came again to report: Soastus asked.

Deavers glance: What is this guy coming so late?

Kunogora had mentioned this eldest son to Daves several times before his death, saying that he was a character, a good man, and a fantasy.

But in fact, after a survey by Aristilas, Sostatus is very talented in business. Especially after the South Italian War, Soastus used the money he had earned before to build a larger fleet and seized the business opportunities that Dionia received a lot of land but lacked people and materials. From the Eastern Mediterranean, the Greek immigrants are constantly transported, and at the same time, they have opened up the grain-rich Carthage and Egypt's sea trade routes, bought a lot of low-priced food, earned a lot of money for themselves, and also made Dionya. Stabilizing new territories has contributed.

Since then, Sostatus has continued to open up new trade channels, such as the Celtic area north of the Iberian Peninsula and the Illyria area on the north side of the Adriatic Sea. Merchants and wines exchanged for unique goods in these areas, such as gold, silver, iron, zinc, and other metal mines, such as amber, agate, fur, etc., which once again made his wealth soar.

At the same time, he also loves to help other Diony businessmen, often finances them, and loves to unite them together for sea trade... Today, he is already a famous businessman in the kingdom, especially in Turui. The influence of businessmen in the region is huge.

Therefore, even if Davis does not look at his father's share, he will not be too slow.

"...陛下~www.novelmtl.com~ I know about Ionis, he is a slave, always cautious in doing things, how dare to run boldly to the forbidden land of the Carthaginians, secretly acquiring silver ore, which is clearly Carthage The fall of man! They did not judge with our officials, they suddenly killed them. This must be the guilty conscience of the Carthaginians! Unfortunately, Ionis and the 50 crew members were so grievous and ruined. Now they are crying at home, and they are still looking forward to making money to return home, raising parents, wives and children... Your Majesty, you must be the master of them, wash their grievances for them, and let the Carthaginians make compensation! When Sostatus entered the room, he complained to Daves that Ionus and others were wronged.

"Ionnis was a slave to your family?" Daves did not make a statement and asked.

"Yes, Your Majesty. He was a farmer on Samo Island. He was unable to repay his huge debts. He sold himself as a slave and later sold it to my family. Because of his diligence, my father gave him freedom. Two years ago, He became a citizen of the kingdom and has been responsible for selling our wines from Turui to the Celtic region, which is sold to the west, and the Greek city-state on the Iberian Peninsula. The business has been doing very well. Think of this time... oh... **** Carthaginians!” Sostatus sighed and rubbed a tear in his hand, his eyes full of regret and indignation.
