Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 423

[Chapter 90 Davers’ North Strategy]

Having said this, Davos quieted down and listened carefully. It seemed that the voices outside were much quieter. He was calm and yawned: “It seems that the battle is over, you all go to sleep.

” Armid and Rodom leave.

“Amintas has such a strong desire to fight, and he has to try his best to keep him until he faces Syracuse…” Davos fell asleep in a whisper.

………………………………

The next morning, Puamont and Poulet came to visit Davos.

After a friendly conversation, the two left with satisfaction.

And Davos was also very happy, and quickly called Alexis, the commander of the Third Army, and said to him: “Just now, the great leader of Potentia came to me and took the initiative to request the city of Poseidonia. Leave it

to Dionysus.”

“That’s great!” Alexis said excitedly.

“Yeah, I didn’t expect him to make such a decision so decisively. Although many Lucanians despised Puamote, saying that he was neither as brave as Akpirus nor as smart as Cincinnagar. , is a coward who can only stay at home and sleep with his wife. But the power of those two people has perished, but Potentia will always exist! Those who can understand the general trend and follow the general trend are the ones who truly have great power. A wise man, Puamote will break up when he decides, and give up if he can, it’s amazing!” Davos sighed with emotion.

He turned to look at Alexis, and continued: “I called you today because I have an important task for you to do.”

Alexis immediately sat up straight.

“Although the Samonais were defeated, nearly 20,000 defeated soldiers fled in all directions. According to the investigation of the mountain reconnaissance team, except for three large groups that were retreating to the north, the other defeated soldiers were scattered in Poteng. The mountains around Tia were plagued by hunger and disease. But their presence also hindered the plans of the Potentia tribes to return to their settlements. I decided to leave the Third Legion and stationed here to eliminate them. Samone is defeated, and Polet will lead the Potentia warriors to cooperate with you.”

As soon as Davos finished speaking, Alexis said eagerly: “My lord, now the war with Samone is over, And the Syracuse army is attacking our Great Greece, we should return to Turii immediately and concentrate our forces on Syracuse.”

“You don’t have to worry about Syracuse, I have my own arrangements. The truth is Tell you, I always thought that in the future when our alliance expands northwards, the Samonei people will be a headache opponent. But I didn’t expect that this time they would gather a large number of troops, take the initiative to leave the mountains they are familiar with, and

attack Lucania on a large scale

. Under the blessing of Hades, the Samonais suffered a crushing defeat, and our losses were not great. Facing the wounded beast, what we should do is to seize this opportunity, take advantage of its weakness, and kill it , instead of letting it go and causing trouble for us when it recovers.

Therefore, the Third Legion will try to eliminate and capture the Samonais stranded here as much as possible without letting them escape back to the north. After completing this At the same time as the task, you can tentatively attack the Samona Mountains to see if there is any further gain. But be careful not to expand the scale of the war and usher in new enemies! You must understand that Dionia’s current situation, It is impossible to support a two-sided battle!” Davos warned solemnly.

“I understand, I will try my best to expand our results!” Alexis became excited after understanding Davos’ intention. After all, being able to independently lead an army to conquer an area is the greatest achievement of any commander. Pursue.

“I also found a good helper for you.” Davos said, shouting outside the house: “Martius, let him in.”

Alexis looked at the door curiously, and saw him come in .

A small, lean young man.

“Supreme Commander.” The young man gave a standard military salute.

“Printors, the captain of the reconnaissance brigade, the mastermind behind the defeat of the Samonay camp this time!” After Davos returned to the military salute, he looked at him and couldn’t help but admire: “It’s amazing! It’s really amazing! The victory you made saved Dionysian time and allowed us to focus on Syracuse! On behalf of the people of Dionia, I thank you, and your name will be forever remembered in Valhalla!”

Plintos was both excited and a little embarrassed by Davos’ praise, and quickly said humbly: “My lord, this was given to me by the plan you made last time to seize Asprustum City. Inspiration!”

Victory without pride!

Davos nodded, becoming more and more satisfied with the young man: “I will transfer two companies from the Mountain Reconnaissance Brigade, a total of 400 people, under your command to assist the Third Army and Portentia’s army in hunting down Samo. Nai defeated the troops, and at the same time invaded the territory of the neighboring Samonites, can you accomplish this task?”

“I can!” Plintos replied confidently.

Davos nodded calmly, turned around and said to the commander of the Third Army: “Alexis, are you satisfied with the assistant I sent you?”

“It couldn’t be more satisfied!” Alexis laughed: “But it also doubled the pressure on me. With such a hero support, if I didn’t have a decent record, I would be embarrassed to go back to Turii.”

“It’s good that you understand this.” Davers also smiled and continued: ” I hope you can take Kopsa if possible.”

Kopsa?

Alexis heard the term for the first time.

“It’s the closest town to Potentia in Samone, about 40 miles away,” Printols said to Alexis, who had been in the reconnaissance team for nearly a day. Get to know your surroundings.

“This is an expectation of the great leader of Potentia! If Kopsa is captured, Syracuse will be completely under the protection of Dionia, and there will be no more worries about the invasion of Samonais…” Dive s explained further.

In the morning, when Puamot made this request to him, Davos understood that Bochengtia had made up his mind to completely rely on the Dionysian Alliance.

“Of course you have to do what you can, don’t force it. Next, the battle in the south of the alliance will be fierce, and the supplies will definitely be very tight. You should pay special attention to this problem, and don’t induce another big war in the north!” Davos once again This sentence is emphasized.

Alexis and Plintos looked at each other and immediately understood.

“One more thing… Puamot wants to build an avenue to strengthen the connection with our Lucania territory. This is a good thing, I have agreed, and I am ready to let Bagul take over this matter, and Let Alexis be your assistant.” Seeing that Alexis wanted to speak, Davos waved his hand and said, “After all, you have served as a construction officer, you are very familiar with road construction, and you have a good relationship with Bagula, so I believe you can cooperate. It’s very good. There are tens of thousands of Samonei prisoners as ready-made labor, but don’t wear them to death, these prisoners will be of great use to me in the future.”

“I accept this task.” Alexis said helplessly.

Seeing his reluctance to answer, Davos had to remind him: “Building this road will not only strengthen the connection with Potentia, but also help our Dionia to expand to the central Apennine in the future, so building the road It’s as important as chasing down the fallen soldiers of Samona, and it’s not a conflict.”

“My lord, I understand, I will do my best to help Bagule and the others repair this road

!

”

In the early morning of the same day, Sesta was on his way to the Senate.

The outbreak of this war still had a great impact on the city of Turii, and most of the first and second legions were citizens of Turii.

Then, two new legions were formed, mainly Turii citizens, who trained every day in the military port of the Klati River east of Turii City, so there were hardly any young men in the city.

Out of concern for their relatives, the elderly and women spend less time in the square, and more often stay at home or pray in temples.

Sesta looked at the empty Victory Square and felt a little disappointed.

“Lord Sesta!” A shout came from behind him, and when he looked back, it was the elder from Bruty, Bajilippi.

“With Lord Sesta as company, even if I arrive late, I won’t be afraid anymore.” Bajilippi said half-jokingly and half-seriously. The white burton robe with fringe was like a thin bamboo pole hanging a wide cloth robe, so he tried his best to pull the dangling hem with both hands, which was rather funny.

But Sesta did not laugh. As an inspector, he had the function of supervising the performance of the elders during the meeting of the Senate. Now, after the treason case of the elders such as Polyxis, the elders, at the initiative of Davos, gave more The Ombudsman has enormous power to oversee the lawless acts of the Elders and Union officials.

Because of the heavy responsibility on his shoulders, Sesta has always set an example, but he did not expect to be late today. He explained involuntarily: “Last night, I was busy sorting out the information about the supervision of elections in various cities and the establishment of local councils, so that I can meet at the meeting today. I reported to everyone at the meeting, but I was busy until late at night, and I got up late today.”

“In the current situation of Siracusa’s army under pressure, are the local council elections still held?! You know, I heard Nanyi yesterday. The news that the coalition forces are going to fight the Syracuses in the Siracusa, I can’t sleep all night!” Bachilippi said uneasily, after all, the Fifth Legion is almost composed of citizens of Bruti, and the Bruti area Being at the forefront of the war, once the battle is lost, the impact on the Brutus will be greater than that of other city citizens in the alliance.
