Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Camillas solemnly said: "First of all, we must be deeply aware that Diaonia is the most powerful and dangerous enemy we have ever faced. The Dionysian army is obviously a strict military. Training, a terrible army with strong military discipline, otherwise we can't explain that their soldiers can lead the number of people who are leading me more than their troops after dozens of rushing troops, and dare to arrange without hesitation The battle, fighting with our soldiers, and being able to hold on for so long, this is by no means comparable to the forces we have defeated before, such as Etruscan, Wolsey... their soldiers are brave, but However, there is no strict discipline, no complicated tactics, and it is completely scattered in the battle.

Second, the morale of the Dionysian soldiers is very strong. In this battle, they are fewer people than I have led, and they consume more energy than my soldiers, but they can still fight for so long, even if they almost broke through their formation several times, they There was no panic and it was quite calm.

Perhaps you will say, ‘this time the troops sent by Dionia are probably the elite of their army. 'But even if the other Dionyrian army has only half the combat power of this army, it is quite scary. Because after I came back, I specially inquired about the Carthage messenger that the Kingdom of Dionia has a vast territory and a large population. It is said that their existing army has more than 100,000 people, plus they have a strong fleet. Far from being able to fight independently by our Rome.

Therefore, we must first base ourselves on defense, requiring all allies and colonial cities on the side of the sea to strengthen the defense of the city, strengthen patrols and explorations, and prevent the Daonians from attacking from the sea. At the same time, our Roman citizens are always ready to recruit, and once they find the enemy, they can reinforce them at any time.

In addition, I also recommend that the previous resolution on 'Assignment of landless civilians to Worthy to occupy the land' will be implemented immediately, so that they can quickly enter the city of Villitre, Antigua and Saturnic. Our new source of troops replaces the army that was originally stationed there. Of course, given their financial resources, we must also equip them with weapons and equipment, so we must also ask the Carthaginians to continue to provide us with funding in this regard.

In addition, for the bill on the absorption of Latin refugees as Roman citizens passed by the Senate a few years ago, I hope to expand the scope of attracting refugees, such as Etruscans and Sabins, and speed up the process of absorption. So that we have more soldiers and fight against Diony..."

Having said that, Camilos wants to stop talking, and some words are not spoken at all. He originally wanted to propose "allowing Roman civilians to rent public land in Rome, and even distributing part of the public land to landless civilians and newly joined citizens to increase their loyalty...", but he thought that the land was still The Roman aristocracy held it, this proposal will undoubtedly violate their interests, not only will cause their strong opposition, but also cause themselves to be suspicion and exclusion, and even suffer the miserable situation of Marcus... The old Camilos I chose to give up.

However, he has other choices. He continued: "We also need to strengthen military training for citizens, enhance their ability to fight against the soldiers of the Dionys, and understand some special tactics of the Dionysian army. Being able to respond in a timely manner. According to my observations, Dionia may be affected by the drought, so there are not many troops dispatched to the Latin region, and now we should take defense to deal with their offense should be enough.

However, since we have already succumbed to Dionya, and it is the alliance of Wolsey, as time goes on, once Dionia has sufficient food supply troops, it is likely to attack us. Intensified, so we can't take a wait-and-see attitude, sit on the war between Carthage and Dionia, and hope that Carthage can defeat Dionia and hope that their fleet can protect our coast, just in case. Did Carthage fail? ! Then we will bear the anger of the Dionys alone! ”

This sentence of Camilos made the hearts of the old people shocked.

Camillas looked around them and said with a loud voice: "So, we can't just defend, we must attack! We must put pressure on the Diaonians, and they can't easily concentrate the main forces on Carthage." People fight! We must contribute our strength to the victory of the Allies in the Carthaginians!"

The words of Camillas made the elders think.

Paulus couldn’t help but say: "Camilus, you just said that you want to attack. Before your battle has shown that attacking Wolsey is dangerous for us, the fleet of Dionia can raided our army at any time. At the rear, cut off our food transportation..."

"Offensive Wolsey is really an adventure, but what if you attack Helsinki?" Camilles gave a glimpse of Paulus and opened his mind: the original Wolsey coalition attacked the Roman allies. In the territory, it was not only Wolsey that was defeated by Camillaus, but also the Equis and the Helsinki. Rome finally chose to retaliate against Wolsey, because Wolsey had caused more trouble to Rome in the past, and it had the most land and fertile land. Although Herniki is weak, and the place where he lives is mostly hilly, it is also a race that often causes trouble to Rome...

Paulus is thinking, Camilles continues: "We can't sit down on Dionys and Carthage while defending the possible attack of the Wolsey and the Diaonians in the southwest. The war should be sent to the northeast to attack Helsinki.

The strength of the Helsnikis has been severely weakened by us in the previous wars. It can destroy it, not only for our Rome, but also for the landless Roman civilians.

In addition, there are some Walsh towns adjacent to Herniki and will be the focus of our offense. If the Dionys of the Wolsey League come to the rescue, in the outback that is far from the coast. In the region, we can fight with them with confidence. ”

"But it is mainly hills and mountains, which is not conducive to our heavy infantry fighting!" Freuz reminded.

Camillaus immediately responded: "But it is also not conducive to the fighting of the soldiers of the Day of Dionia, it is not conducive to their powerful cavalry battle. There, we are more familiar with the terrain, as well as the support of our Latin League, we There is nothing to worry about. We are holding the Dionyns there, and we can even force them to send more reinforcements... Once Carthage wins in the naval battle, we can send troops again, from the plains in the southwest. Once again, I entered the territory of Wolsey and eventually surrounded the Dionyns!..."

The elders listened and nodded, but some people expressed concern: "The town of Wolsey on the edge of the Helsinki region is close to the Samonet. I can hear that the Samonets are allies with Dionya. One--"

"You don't have to worry!" Paulus said loudly: "The Carthage messenger once mentioned that the Samonets have long been dissatisfied with Dionia. They are probably at this time Carthage and Dionia. In the war, I have acted against Dionia..."

"The Carthaginians also said that they should launch an offensive against Dionia immediately. For them, we should not believe too much!" another veteran complained.

But in any case, the analysis of Camilos provoked a heated debate among the veterans, but also gave them the determination to fight the Kingdom of Denia.

At this time, Potistus stood on a cane and stood up. As a veteran who has been a Roman and political politician for more than ten years, his prestige is enough to keep him from talking. People consciously stopped discussing or depressed the voice.

"Elders and newcomers, this time the war with Dionia is like the war with the Celts. It is related to the life and death of our Rome. All our Roman citizens must work together to face Jupiter. Our once again severe test! Any controversy, suspicion, guilt will consume our energy and time, destroy unity and fail to make correct actions in time! Therefore, I propose that the Senate be elected at this time of crisis. Out of the dictatorship, let him lead the Roman citizens and win the war against Dionia!"

The words of Portitos fell, and the venue was quiet for a while.

Subsequently, Paulus first said: "I agree with Potitis's opinion, elected the dictator, and fully responded to the war with Dionia!"

Later, Freuz also expressed his support: "As a military and political officer who has fought with Dionia, I know the greatness of the Dionyrians. We need the dictator to dispel the contradictions among the people and unify everyone's understanding. If you are fully committed to this difficult war, you will be able to win the final victory!"

The unselfish speeches of the two military and political officers were supported by the majority of the veterans present. www.novelmtl.com~ Be aware that once the dictator is elected, the military and political officials will be automatically cancelled.

Camillas also expressed support when the elders expressed their agreement one by one, but he said: "I hope that the person who ran for the dictator this time will not choose me because this is the case with the Kingdom of Dionia. The war is probably a hard and long war. I am old and have not enough energy to take on this responsibility, but I am willing to offer my advice to the new dictator to help him defeat the Dionyrians."

"Do you have me older? But if the Dionys attacked the city of Rome, I would also take up arms and fight! Don't escape your responsibility!" Pottyus pointed at him with a cane, screaming Reprimanded. When Potistus first served as the consul and led the army, Camillaus was still an ordinary team officer. It was because of the heroic performance in the battle and the appreciation of Pottusus that he gradually entered. The center of Roman power.

"Being a dictator at this time, this is not an honor, but a responsibility! The responsibility of Tianda! Because the life and death of Rome is in the mastery of the dictator!" Potistus said with a strong heart, this is not only to say to Kami Luce listened, but also said to other veterans who have this kind of mind: "As a hero who has repeatedly faced strong enemies and saved Rome, you should not evade this responsibility, because only you can lead Roman citizens to win. This time the victory!"
