Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 1099
[Chapter 48 Election of District Chief Executives (2)]
But none of the elders dared to look down on him. In fact, even if Vespa didn’t talk much, he stood there, which is a strong support for Damabas, because he was one of the leaders of the Lucania faction, and Damabas He was a Lucanian, and Vespa’s speech represented the support of the senate Lucalia Party.
In the Senate, the influence of the Lucania faction is also very important. Vespa’s son Bagule and son-in-law Asisters are very experienced elders and important ministers of the kingdom. Appointed as district administrator.
The other leader, Hermon, is not only the rotating chairman, but also has many daughters. He has also become in-laws with many elders, and has a lot of influence in the Senate.
In addition, since the Lucanians fought with the mercenaries led by Davos very early on, their development in the Kingdom’s army should not be underestimated. In addition to the outstanding veteran Lizaru, there are many Lucanis in the army. Yaren served as the middle and senior team officer…
The two powerful senate factions collided in the first round of selection, and did not completely let the other elders retreat. The third recommender stood up, he was a farmer Minister Burcos, without fear of Stromboli and Vespa’s dissatisfied eyes, said calmly: “Everyone, I want to recommend the candidate to serve as the chief executive of Corsica is Mikhippus! He, I think everyone is familiar with him, since the establishment of Dionia, he has worked in Turui, served as the village chief, served as the agricultural adjutant, served as the head of the Turui copper mine, and served as the administrator of Demo. Commander, the chief executive of Bisinia, the chief executive of Heraclea…
He has rich administrative experience and rich experience in managing metal mines. As for the experience in managing foreign races, which town in the kingdom is not a mixed race , every official will face such a problem, the kingdom has long had a set of mature governance experience, especially for a long-term direct contact with various races in government affairs like Michippus, and has long been accustomed
to it. As for getting along with allies Experience, this is not a big problem. The kingdom is already so powerful, and most of the allies have become our subordinates, especially the Etruscans, who are now extremely dependent on us, how can they easily turn their backs on us… To sum up , I think Mick Ships is the most suitable candidate for Corsica’s prefect!”
Burkes’ remarks were very direct, but the elders looked at each other: what’s going on?
The first election was the collision between the three major factions since the establishment of the Dionysian Senate!
The Turii faction is also one of the most important factions of the Dionysian Senate. It once overwhelmed other factions and dominated the affairs of the Senate, but the Polyxis incident hit it hard and led to the entry of many influential senators. Prisons, such as En Anilus, Mathesacus, Orifis… In addition to the death of the influential Kunogolata, Burkes and Ancitanos because of their character and ability , did not assume the responsibility of leading the Turii faction, which led to its decline in the past few years.
But Turiyi is the central town of the Kingdom of Dionia after all, and there are many talents. In recent years, Tuurii officials with outstanding political achievements and sufficient qualifications have entered the Senate, and it has a tendency to re-emerge.
The three standing senators are located in the first and second rows,
one left, one right, and one middle, forming an approximate isosceles triangle, representing the three major factions of the Senate. It has been promoting the rapid development of the kingdom, and it has also made other veterans both sigh and be vigilant: look at the resumes of these three candidates, their experiences are very similar, they are all in their 40s, and they all served in the legion when they were young. Soldiers, who have made military exploits, retired from active service due to injuries.
It was precisely because of their performance during the service that they were successfully elected as the mayor of the village where they belonged. Because of their outstanding performance, they were noticed by important figures of their faction, and thus were taken care of later.
For example, during the Western Mediterranean War, Stromboli was urgently appointed as the chief executive of Saros. He made some demands to the Senate, and only agreed to take office after they were satisfied. One of them was to transfer the newly appointed Castellon administration Phlocrates, who was chief for a year, served as his deputy to help govern Saros.
It didn’t take long for Frocrates to be recommended as the prefect of St. Ibinia (although the rank of the prefects of the towns of Dionia was not clearly defined at that time, Castellon was a Turii In a town under the region, many elders believe that its chief executive is only higher than the chief executive of Demo, and St. Ibinia, as a famous financial and smelting center in the Western Mediterranean, has become its chief executive. is much more important).
And Damabas was able to become the head of the Lucania Iron Mine and the chief executive of Poseidonia, and Wisba and Bagule contributed a lot.
In the same way, Miksips can become an official of the Ministry of Agriculture and manage copper mines, which naturally has a lot to do with Burkes (minerals are also under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Agriculture)…
Although he has received a lot of care along the way in politics, However, their political experience in Dionia is about 20 years, and even far exceeds the time when many elders joined the kingdom of Dionia, which makes them sigh. There are several of these three factions, although this is because these three factions were participants when Dionia was established and had the advantage of time, but they also made other elders feel the pressure of competition.
But now, due to the good political resumes of the three, the elders could not find a place where they could obviously criticize, so they simply tried to fix their flaws and wanted to see the excitement caused by the collision of the three major factions.
But just when the etiquette officer announced that he was going to run for election, Stromboli looked at Vespa, then turned to look at Hermon, he blinked, and suddenly said, “I’m sorry, I choose to abstain!
” There was a commotion inside, and many elders were stunned: this Stromboli doesn’t look old, but he has a stubborn temper and never gives up easily when arguing with others.
Weisba and Hermon also seemed a little surprised.
The ceremonial officer frowned and said loudly: “Lord Stromboli, since you have proposed candidates before, your abstention does not count now. Does Lord Flocrates agree to abstain?
” The back stood up, he looked at Stromboli who was still standing, and after the two made eye contact, he simply said aloud: “I agree to abstain from being a candidate for the Corsica regional administrator!”
“Then , then it will be Damabas and Michippus—” Before the ceremonial official could finish speaking, he heard Burkes say: “I also abstain!”
There was a commotion in the venue again, but some elders saw it. The clues, sneered.
It was the first time the etiquette officer had encountered such a situation, and he looked back at Antaoris nervously.
Antaoris motioned him to remain calm, and then said loudly: “Are there any elders to be elected?”
Due to the withdrawal of Flocrates and Mixhippus, a few elders saw an opportunity, and they held a try. Attitude put forward candidates, so counting Damabas, there are three more candidates.
Antaoris nodded to the etiquette officer.
The ceremonial officer
took a deep breath and said loudly: “The nomination is over, the campaign begins! Please select the Corsica regional administrator who you think is suitable from the three candidates!”
The boards with the names of three candidates, each in charge of an area of the venue, began to whisper to each elder about the candidates in their hearts from back to front.
Some of the elders spoke out loud, while others did not speak, pointing to the names on the wooden board.
The recorder will use a white pen to draw horizontal lines under the selected names one by one.
Behind the recorder is followed by a prosecutor, who is responsible for supervising whether the recorder is strictly enforcing the discipline of the venue and not cheating.
Every year, the Senate conducts the election of the chief executive of towns and cities. I don’t know how many times.
Antaoris did not say the results immediately, but submitted the statistical results to Davos first.
Davos didn’t answer, and waved his hand: “I said that this time the selection of the regional chief executive is entirely up to you, and I will not interfere.”
Antaoris expressed his understanding, holding the wooden board, facing the elders, speaking loudly It read: “According to the statistics, Damabas received 545 votes… So in the end, the election result of the Corsica Regional Chief Executive is that Damabas won! Do you have any objections?”
No one at the meeting objected, but Many people understand in their hearts that Damabas’s high number of votes is closely related to the abstentions of Stromboli and Burkes.
After waiting for a while, Antaoris said loudly: “I announce that Damabas has become the chief executive of the Kosi family region. Congratulations, Damabas-sama!” Inside
the venue Suddenly there was a round of applause.
Damabas stood up with a look of joy and saluted all around.
After a while, Antaoris stretched out his hand and pressed it down, and the etiquette officer immediately shouted: “The meeting continues, please keep quiet!”
“Next, the election of the chief executive of the northern region of Sardinia will take place. “Antaoris just finished speaking when he saw a familiar figure stand up.
Stromboli coughed twice, and said solemnly again: “I chose Frocrates, and the reasons for the choice have been said before.” There were a few chuckles
in the venue, but they soon recovered. Quiet.
In addition to a metal smelting center, Santa Ibinia, in the northern part of Sardinia, there is also a relatively prosperous and prosperous seaport town of Saros, and a small, but also rich in precious metals, a seaside town Olbia.
