Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 1167
[Chapter 116 The Suspicion of Printols]
In this way, the camp can not only be used as a camp for the Dionysian army in the Arcadia region and a storage place for military supplies, but also to protect it, to defend against the Spartan army from the north or the south, and avoid their threats to Megalopolis New Town.
Having
said that, he looked at Lucomedes and said solemnly, “It will take at least three days to build the camp. After the camp is basically built, His Royal Highness Klotokatax will lead the main force to continue eastward, passing through Tiger.” Ya, go north to rescue Mandinia and defeat the Spartans…”
His words caused a commotion among the Arcadia deputies, and everyone talked in a low voice for a while, and they all agreed with the plans of the Dionysians, thinking that they He
was more thoughtful.
The first to respond was Lucomedes, because he understood why the other party was looking at him and talking, he immediately stated, “We Mandinians are confident that we can stick to it for at least a month!
Then someone said, ”
When our soldiers are assembled, they will rush to Mandinia as soon as possible to fight the Spartans with you.”
”
Plintos responded with a serious look. “Our soldiers are very happy to have the opportunity to fight side by side with the citizens of Arcadia!”
But according to the current situation, I have a suggestion for your reference… This is the center of your alliance, and there are many villages around, but there is not enough protection, although we will build a camp in the east to block the Spartans Invasion, but we are not familiar with the geography here. We don’t know if the Spartans will climb over the mountains, bypass the camp, and raid Megalopolis… So I suggest that your army should be stationed here, with The troops we stayed in the camp defended against the Spartan raids together…”
When Printols made this suggestion, Clotokatax was surprised, because it was a little different from the plan they had negotiated before. But he suppressed his doubts and did not raise objections on the spot.
The Arcadia congressmen were a little moved by what Printols said, and they agreed after a brief discussion.
At this time, their attitude towards Clotokatax and the others changed greatly and became more enthusiastic. After all, the Spartans are now invading the territory of the Arcadians, but now it is Dionia The army was completely in the front, avoiding too many casualties for the Arcadians, and they inevitably felt guilty.
After Clotokatax and the others said goodbye to the Arcadia deputies and rode their horses to chase the army, Plintors took the initiative to explain to the young commander, “Your Highness, please forgive me for doing so without authorization. Advocate, changed the plan that was negotiated before.” The
previous military plan of Dionia was to let the Arcadia Alliance send an army to fight side by side with the Dionysian army, which would not only enhance the friendship between the two sides, but also have the The Cadia army as a guide will undoubtedly allow the Dionysian army to integrate into this unfamiliar war zone faster.
“I think Lord Printols must have an important reason for doing this.
” Clotokatax said in a gentle tone.
The reason why Printols dared to make an assertion and change his plans temporarily was because after spending time with Clotokatax, he had a deep understanding of his habit of thinking about others, and at this time. Clotokatax gave him another reassurance, and at the same time made him more determined to assist the young prince.
Plintors regained his spirits and said seriously, “Your Highness, although you have been very generous in not pursuing the assassination just now in order not to affect our alliance with the Arcadia Alliance, but even if the assassin came from Olympia, How did they know that we were meeting with the Arcadia confederates today? How did they wear Bolton the same color as the Arcadia senators, escaped the patrols of Arcadian soldiers, and infiltrated the ranks ?… None of this can’t help but cause us to ponder, because it will affect our next fight with the Spartans?”
“You mean…” Clotokataxus thoughtfully “those Is there a spy in Senator Kadia?”
Printols further reminded, “The Arcadia alliance was just established, but the alliance between these city-states of Arcadia and Sparta has lasted for decades, and it is the most consistent among all the allies of Sparta. The one with the longest time and the strongest relationship, although they have now betrayed Sparta, I think there is no shortage of people in their country who are close to Sparta…”
Clotokatax thought for a moment with a solemn expression, and then Hesitantly said, “Are you worried that when we fight with the Arcadians, they will… suddenly become friends and enemies? That’s why you proposed that the Arcadians stay at Megalopolis and not let them Join
us?”
“His Royal Highness.” Plintos said sincerely, “In the previous wars in the kingdom, your wise majesty has subtly revolted against the enemy many times, thus shortening the time for the final victory. Because of this, We should be more careful that the enemy uses this strategy on us, especially now that we are going all out to fight the powerful Spartans. If our allies by our side suddenly attack us, the consequences will be disastrous …so to be on the safe side, it’s safer for us not to let the Arcadians get involved in a frontal battle.
What’s more, with our army now strong enough to deal with the Spartans, there is no Arcadian army. We will command the army more smoothly and fight more resolutely!”
“I understand, thank you Lord Plintos for reminding me, I agree to implement the new plan.” Clotokatax was still a little bit concerned. Doubt “It’s just… Without the assistance of the Allies, how can we get the help of the local people in the next battle? How can we not be regarded as an enemy by them?”
“His Royal Highness, not all the city-states of Arcadia are I used to have a close relationship with the Spartans.”
Plintolls’ reminder made Clotokatax’s eyes light up, “You mean Mandinia! … It seems that we have to send a Let’s have a good talk with Lycomedes, and hope he can send us some Mandinians as guides.”
“Yes, Your Highness.” Plintors said respectfully, not contrived, but from the heart.
In his opinion, although this young prince lacks military experience, he is not only good at listening to the opinions of his subordinates, but also can quickly draw inferences from others once he is instructed. He is by no means a puppet who can be fooled. He deserves to have the god Hades blood vessels.
At this time, they have caught up with the large army marching.
The soldiers who had been marching for a long time had already sang the “Song of the Legion” under the command of the officers. Clotokatax immediately rode close to the marching column and sang along with the soldiers regardless of their status, even singing. When he was excited, he shook his head, which not only did not make the soldiers feel funny, but made them feel friendly.
The heroic and heroic singing washed away the fatigue of the soldiers, and echoed in the hills and mountains, making the Arcadia councilors stop and listen. Although the lyrics were not clear, it did not prevent them from sighing, “The Dionysian Soldier’s High morale!”
“It’s not just high morale, you look at their equipment, look at their marches, this is a well-trained army, and they are fully capable of fighting against Sparta!”
“Just fighting ?! You and I have fought with the Spartans many times, the Spartans are indeed well trained, but how many are they! Look at this Dionysian army again, it’s been so long, I haven’t Look at its tail! The number that the General Dionia said is probably correct. Their number of soldiers exceeds 30,000, and the few Spartans are probably not their opponents!”
“Just look at the march .
Can you see the combat effectiveness of the army? I think we will only know the strength after the two sides actually fight!”
“Anyway, with the powerful Dionia as an ally, we will feel very at ease!”
“You guys Don’t forget that the mighty Sparta used to be our ally, but why do we have to form an alliance? Oh! I’m afraid that an old wolf king will be driven away and a new wolf king will be ushered in!”
“The key is that this new wolf king is not quite the same as our beliefs. They think Hades is the lord of the gods! Otherwise, why would the Olympians assassinate the Dionysian commander! Everyone, don’t forget , Zeus is also the protector of our Arcadia alliance!”
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings were silent.
Lucomedes hurriedly said loudly, “Everyone, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com Our covenant with Dionia made it very clear that both parties respect their respective religious beliefs and will never slander and interfere with each other… Everyone in this regard. Don’t worry at all! Now that the Spartan army is attacking, it is related to the survival of the alliance. We need a strong ally Dionia to help us repel the enemy. This is what we should do at this time. Everything else is Don’t think about it for the time being!”
“Lucomedes is right!” Some congressmen loudly agreed, but others remained silent.
Lucomedes is a little helpless, this is the current situation of the alliance, he has spent too much energy to convince them these days, and now he is a little tired…
