Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 8 Chapter 147: Post-war arrangements

After the fourth army of Olivers was knocking down the city wall, he did not think carefully, did not do investigations, and did not control the soldiers under his arm, let them rush into the gap, and was trapped under the city, causing burns. Very popular, the casualties are extremely heavy.

As for the second corps of Matonis, since Davers was at his rear, he almost watched the whole battle process with his own eyes. He knew very well that although the Second Legion had the best siege equipment, the Romans also assembled. The heavy soldiers were defending the area he attacked, so Davers did not have much grievances against Matonis.

In these years of war, Daves rarely said such a heavy word, several heads of the army were shyly bowed their heads.

Davers did not look at them again, slowed down his tone and said to Stacy Kedas: "What difficulties do you have to save the soldiers?"

"There are too many injured soldiers, and we have enough people to care for them."

"Tormid, you are responsible for mobilizing soldiers from various corps, letting them follow the command of Stacy Kedas, assisting the medical camp, and helping their comrades."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, we still need a lot of spacious and clean rooms to let the wounded people recuperate and recover."

"This thing is easy to handle." Davers thought about it and said: "I heard that many Roman nobles fled to Capitolin Hill. Trotillas is responsible for bringing troops to their houses. , handed it to the medical camp."

"Follow, sire."

Stacy Kudas hesitated and said: "And... my Majesty, I hope to be able to treat the injured Romans." The parents of the doctors, although the two sides are hostile, but in the eyes of doctors, there are only patients.

Daves smiled and said with relief: "You will not say this, I will let you do this."

Davers once again bet his eyes on the heads of the various military forces: "Now let's clarify the station of the various legions in Rome."

As soon as the heads of the various units heard it, they immediately leaned forward and looked at the map of Rome on the wooden table.

"The First Legion and the Second Legion camped in the square." Davers pointed the map and said: "The Fourth Army is camping in the arena, the Sixth Corps camps in the southeast corner of the city, and the Fifth Corps camps in the southwest corner of the city. Three Legions -"

Daves paused and looked at Lizzar: "You still live in the original camp, and you must include the riverbank where the third fleet was parked in the battleship, and continue to improve the defense of the camp, compared with other regiments. You have to work harder, but you have to understand that it is very important that you guard the entire military's material transportation base! Be careful and careful, don't get any problems!"

"Give us the third legion, you can rest assured!" Lizaru said loudly.

Davers nodded and looked around the heads of the various units: "Everyone understands the location of their own army, and there are difficulties, though."

Several heads of the army looked at the map and said that they had no opinions. Only Giorgios was embarrassed. Davers looked in his eyes and immediately said: "Gio Gris, what are your difficulties, though."

Gio Gris said carefully: "Your Majesty, the southwest corner of the city is full of messy houses, there is not enough open space for the Fifth Army to camp, and the garbage is everywhere, the smell is unpleasant, which is not conducive to the rest of the soldiers... the open space near the arena A lot of it, you see if I can let the Fifth Corps camp in the arena."

Daves listened and looked at the map. The map did not identify the slums in the southwest corner of the city, but he believed that Gio Gris said that after all, they were close to the front line.

"Yes!" Daves immediately followed the advice of Gio Gris and asked the head of the Sixth Army: "Trotras, is there any difficulty for your Sixth Legion to camp in the southeast corner?"

"Your Majesty, I observed it when I was on the city. There is enough open space there. There is no problem in camping."

After finishing the infantry regiment, Davers looked at the captain of the cavalry army: "The campgrounds of the two cavalry regiments are on the north side of the Sileo Mountains and on the south side of the square. There is a big market there. Now the Romans do not use it. On the way, when I first entered the city gate, I saw some corrals and stables in the market just right for your cavalry."

Both Ledes and Kuzius have no opinions.

"Now the camps of the various legions have been confirmed, and then you will be clear about your defense zone." Daves pointed to the map and continued: "The wall sections that the various regiments attacked were the wall sections that you will be patrolling, and the legions are responsible. The order and security in the urban area was initially planned in this way. The 4th and 5th Army regimes are responsible for the urban area south of the arena. The first and sixth legions are responsible for the Roman Forum to the north of the Esquiri Mountains, the Second Legion and The Fleet Infantry and the Mountain Reconnaissance Brigade are responsible for the area in the middle of the city."

Speaking of this, Davers looks at Matonis: "Your second legion is responsible for the largest area, but the number of soldiers is the least, but you don't have to worry, according to the information I have obtained so far, these are in the middle city. Most of the residents are Roman aristocrats, but many of them have fled to Capitolin, and your mission is relatively easy."

"Your Majesty, even if they are still there, the brothers of our Second Army will not have any pressure, they are old and young women, what is terrible!" Matones said confidently.

"The Third Corps is responsible for the north shore of the Roman vertebral bridge, and at the same time protects the port we are about to build there. As for the two cavalry regiments, your mission is to inspect the whole city, find anomalies, and promptly inform the army of the area in charge. Let them solve it, the city is not conducive to cavalry operations, do not let our valuable cavalry break here. In addition, the various legions should seize the time to improve the defense of the city, outside the city wall to set up deer, digging traps ... to ensure We no longer have to pay a lot of casualties to be able to easily hold this city that belongs to us... Oh, yes, the two walls of the 4th and 5th Corps that collapsed have to be repaired quickly! ”

"Your Majesty, our soldiers are already in the process of mending up," Gio Gris said immediately.

"Very good!" Daphus nodded gratifiedly to him. Gio Gris did not have Matois brave, no Oliver, and even timid, but it was because of timidity that made him Being cautious and attentive can play an important role at some point.

"His, what about us? Where do we live? What is our mission? You won't forget us!" Epiphanis asked urgently.

"How could you forget your troops!" Davers laughed, then pointed his finger at the mountain-shaped sign in the western section of the northeastern city wall. He said, "I ask you to lead the troops to build a camp, and to take the Capitoline Hill. stand up."

"Isn't it better to attack it directly?!" Epiphanis loudly suggested.

"No, we have to keep it." Daves smiled secretly: "This way you can control the Roman army outside the city."

What Daves said was to make the heads of the army think.

"You all know your mission, and who else has different opinions?"

"Nothing." The generals answered in unison.

"How many prisoners have we captured?" Daphus turned to ask Tolmid.

“The preliminary statistics have more than 21,300 people.”

"There are a lot of people."

“Many are old people, women, children...and slaves,” Tormmid reminded.

"Put the captives over the age of 55 and under 15 years old, and the rest are escorted by your various regiments to work as labor... and so on-" "Daves suddenly remembered something and changed his mouth and said: "First take these captives. The aristocrats and civilians in the distinction are distinguished, and the diners of the aristocrats must also make it clear that nobility and diners should be released regardless of their age."

"This... We are not familiar with the situation in Rome. I want to distinguish them clearly. I am afraid that they will not be able to do it in a short time." Tolmide was in a dilemma.

"You...with Waldes--the Roman slave who just returned to us, let him make a preliminary discrimination, you are responsible for supervision." Davers understands that these people are fighting, but they are not dealing with it. The experience of other government affairs, he is now eager for the group of elders and administrative officials in Ostia.

"Understood." Tolmid accepted the order.

"Orops, the engineering team you organized has created a lot of siege equipment in a short period of time, and made a great contribution to our attack on the Roman city!..." Daves did not hesitate to praise. He also told the military judges that the contributions made by the engineers and carpenters must be recorded as an important basis for rewarding the land based on merits after the war.

Then ~www.novelmtl.com~ he asked: "I need you to lead all the engineers, on the riverbank where the third fleet is parked, build a simple dock as soon as possible so that our cargo ships can dock and load and unload. Supplies."

Olops was surprised: "Your Majesty, there is not a river port here! Why do you want to build another one?"

Davers knew that although Oropes was a mercenary, he has been obsessed with research and manufacturing equipment for many years. He still doesn't know much about the current situation, so he patiently explained to him: "The Roman army is coming soon. I am afraid that there are nearly 70,000 people. In the case of our current army, it is not appropriate to fight with it. For the time being, we can only hold this Roman city, but the river port is outside Rome, and there is no strong wall protection. But it takes a lot of casualties, it is totally unnecessary, so I can only ask you! And tomorrow, a large number of people and cargo ships will arrive in Rome, I hope you can speed up the construction of the dock!"

"We will try our best!" Oropes replied in a loud voice. Although he felt some pressure, he still has the confidence to build a dock tomorrow. After all, he has more than 1,000 experienced and highly skilled engineers. And the craftsmen (including the engineering battalions of the various legions) have plenty of wood. ()
