Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 422

[Chapter 89 Puamote’s Decision]

Puamote saw rows of Dionysian legionnaires with their heads held high, passing in front of him, and couldn’t help but exclaim: “What a mighty army! Dionysian has so many brave soldiers, and Who dares to invade! No wonder the Samoneites are not your opponents, Lord Davos!”

“Captain Puamot, the army of Samonei was repelled by the brave warriors led by the brave Potentia leaders. .” Davos said humbly.

“Lord Davos, if you hadn’t led the army to first annihilate the reinforcements sent by the Samonais to Poseidonia, and made a careful plan, sent soldiers to sneak into the enemy camp, disturbed the enemy, and sent his men to contact us, Convince us to carry out a night attack…On our own, how could we have the ability to repel so many fierce Samonais!” Poulet said bluntly.

“You and I don’t give in to each other! To win such a victory and restore peace to this land is the result of the unity and cooperation of Dionia and Potentia!” said.

“Yeah, thank God Asinu! Potentia is very fortunate to join the Dionysian Alliance. Without Dionia’s full support, Potentia would not be what it is today! The Potentians will Remember this kindness forever!” Puamote sighed from the bottom of his heart.

Other leaders also expressed their gratitude to Davos.

“Lord Davos, we have prepared a camp for your army, which is near the city of Potentia. It used to be the settlement of one of our tribes. Because of the rush of time, we did not fully clean it up, and some houses were destroyed by sabotage. The Monets are ruined,” said Polert, who had followed the Dionysian army these days and knew what Davos needed most at this time.

“Thank you so much, this has solved our big problem!” Davos was overjoyed, and then said, “It doesn’t matter if the camp is a little worn out, but these torches will be borrowed from us when the time comes.”

“Lord Davos, we also prepared a welcome banquet for you and your soldiers tonight to celebrate the arrival of victory. When you set up camp, our people will carry hundreds of cattle and sheep, as well as wine. To your camp…” Seeing that the atmosphere was very good, Puamot said loudly, but he was just halfway through when he was interrupted politely by Davos: “Chief Puamot, and all the leaders, I Thank you very much for your kind invitation and your friendship with Dionia! But I heard that this time the Samone invasion has caused great losses to you, villages and farmlands have been burned, and many ethnic groups have been massacred or Captives, a lot of livestock have been lost… You guys are all in a bit of a tight supply of food now, and you still take out food to treat us, do you think we can eat it?”

Davos’s emotional words were talking about the leaders of Portentia. Weak underbelly, a bunch of people don’t speak, just look at their big leader.

Puamo said urgently: “Lord Davos, although we are in a bit of difficulty, but you—”

Davos interrupted him again and

said seriously: “Big Chief, our “Dionysian Military Law” stipulates that, During the war, the army was not allowed to drink, entertain, celebrate. I had been informed when I was in Elia that the army of Syracuse had just invaded Greater Greece! So the war here is over, and the war to the south has just begun. We still have Go back to Turii and drive away the enemies of Sicily… On the day of victory, Dionysius will hold a victory parade. At that time, Dionia will solemnly invite the chief and all the leaders to go to Turiel. Let’s celebrate this hard-won victory!”

Speaking of which, the leaders of Potentia couldn’t persuade them any more, not to mention that this was in line with the practice of medicine for many people.

Puamot, who had never traveled far, even made a promise: “I will definitely go when the time comes!”

“In addition, after we captured the city of Poseidonia, we captured the Syracuse and gave it to the Samone. In view of the difficult livelihood of the people of Potentia, I decided to donate this batch of materials to Potentia, so that this land can be restored to life as soon as possible.” Davos said solemnly.

Everyone present was stunned.

“This…this…how can it be!” Puamot, who has always been steady and calm, was so incoherent that he didn’t know what to say.

“Lord Davos, that is your trophy, and your large army also needs food.” Polert said quickly.

“It’s settled!” Davers said firmly.

“Merciful Lord Davos!”

“Thanks Lord Davos!”

“I thank you for the people of the Leonmu tribe!”

…

Many leaders rushed to express their gratitude, and this time it was completely sincere.

Davers smiled and said nothing.

In fact, as Poulet said, his army of 30,000 people is also in short supply. The soldiers’ rations have been eaten. The food is transported from Grummentum by land and sea, and it will consume 1/3 of it on the light road. It would be good to be able to maintain the army for ten days in Pau.

While the battle here is over, there is still work to be done.

Even so, he did not hesitate to donate an astonishing amount of supplies to Potentia, not for the present, but for the future.

At this time, the atmosphere of the scene was more harmonious, and Davos had a great conversation with the leaders…

And in the mountains not far from them, a pair of hateful eyes were watching the grand lively scene at the foot of the mountain.

“Leader, have you really decided to attack the camp tonight?! There are probably tens of thousands of people in Dionia, and we only have more than 1,000 people, and most of the people are still hungry! It’s better to wait for the big leader and Leskuk. It’s not too late to attack the enemy after the leaders and the others have converged!” The soldiers under him showed hesitant expressions.

“It’s too late by then! The chances of a successful attack on the camp will be high only when the Dionians have just arrived here on the march and they are overworked! Potentias… Potentians can… …cough…if we can do it, so can we!” Gellney cheered the clansmen in a deep voice, but he couldn’t stop coughing.

Last night’s experience was like a nightmare, and if it wasn’t for the night attack, he wouldn’t even mention the term “Portentia”.

“Besides, we’ve been looking for a day today, and we haven’t met…my father…and Leskuk and the others…” Having said this, his expression was a little worried and depressed, but he quickly threw away these troubles His thoughts encouraged the tribe again: “We must act now! Otherwise, tomorrow, Dionysian’s army may attack Kopsa north! We must do our best to defend Abenerum and its neighbors. The land!”

“Yes…” The Samonite warriors answered feebly.

…………………………

Late at night, Puamot returned to his house, still in the excitement of the previous conversation: “Pollet, what do you think of Davos?”

“An amazing Great leader of Greece! A great commander of the army!” Poulet said succinctly.

“So, do you think he can lead the Dionians to repel the army of Syracuse?” Puamote continued to ask.

Polet hesitated, then said with certainty: “I have not seen the army of Syracuse, but the Dionysian Legion is the most disciplined and powerful Greek army I have ever seen, and I believe them I

can win!”

“I believe it too.” After Puamot finished speaking, he saw his younger brother’s surprised expression and smiled: “Although I have never participated in a battle, Davos is the most capable of restraining his own desires I have ever seen. And the Greek general who controls the desires of his subordinates! Such a person, whose character is like a pine tree growing in a rock, will never give in when faced with setbacks, and he will definitely win the final victory! So-”

Puamote took a few steps, Coming to the statue of Asinu, after praying devoutly, I made my final determination: “I have decided to dedicate Poseidonia to Dionysus.”

“What?!” shock.

“In fact, Poseidonia is now in the hands of the Dionysians, who took it from Samone. Davos has never mentioned how to deal with the city, so it is better to take the initiative to take the It was given to Dionysus, anyway, the people there were either killed or captured, and we were unable to rescue them, so let the Dionysians do it.” Puamote sighed, His eyes became brighter and brighter: “I think Davos is a man with a broad mind. The Brutians surrendered, Southern Lucania surrendered, many Greek city-states also surrendered, and the Samonais were also defeated… … The future of this land is for the Dionysians, and we must make our choices early so that Davos will not treat us badly in Portentia.”

“I see, brother. You are the great master of Portentia.

Chief, you have the final say, I will listen to you.” Polert said sincerely.

“No, I’m old, Potentia will be in charge of you in the future, I believe you will handle the relationship with Potentia.” Puamote said calmly, he has no children, Pohler Especially his younger brother, more like his son.

…………………………

In the middle of the night, there was a commotion in the Dionysian camp, which woke Davos from his slumber.

“What happened?” Davos calmly looked at the acting captain Rodom and the herald Thormid who entered the room.

“My lord, the Samonei attacked the camp and was discovered by the sentinels. Because they were in the defense area of the Second Corps, the Armintas Corps commander had already led his team to attack. I believe they will be repelled soon.” Tormide said.

“It’s unfortunate for the Samonaites to hit Amintas. This guy has never been able to win a big battle because he came to the Lucania region, and he is holding his breath in his heart (the Poseidonian siege and annihilation battle is the first The three legions played the main force, and the first and second legions made the final siege and attack, and the victory came too easily. And the inexplicable collapse of the Samonai camp in Potentia, Amyntas, who thought there was a big battle, was naturally dissatisfied. .)”
