Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 476

[Chapter 143 Calming the Northern Territory]

“That’s different.” Henepolis shook his head stubbornly and said, “What you tell me will bring some of your own opinions, and it will only interfere with my judgment on the entire historical event and battle process. Teacher Ancitanos once Said, ‘the eye is the best pen of a historian, it will record everything truthfully.’ So I decided that I will never leave you in the next time!”

He Neapolis looked at Davos with stubbornness and a bit of cunning in his eyes.

Davos sighed secretly in his heart and said slowly: “Some things are not what you want to do, and they are often out of our control. Heney, I called you here because I just received a request for News from Os

…”

“What news?!” Henepolis asked subconsciously, the serious expression on Davos’ face made him uneasy.

Davos said in a deep voice: “Your uncle Arobmas launched a rebellion, and he forcibly took office as the consul of Laos, and announced that Laos had left the Dionysian League, and also sent troops to attack the La River fortress.”

“What?!” Henepolis couldn’t believe his ears: “Uncle Arobmas betrayed?! It’s impossible! It’s impossible!…”

Seeing Henepolis kept shaking his head and saying

Roaring loudly, Davos silently took out the information he received yesterday and handed it to him.

Henipolis grabbed it, watched it several times, and suddenly became quiet…

After a while, he choked and said, “Why? Why did he do this?! He is my only uncle, and I trust so much. He! I have trusted him since I was a child!…”

Davos looked at the tearful Henepolis and said softly, “People can change, especially when your uncle holds great power and is in charge of Laos. It is inevitable that he will not have other ideas about the affairs of the city-state, if there are other forces to lure him, such as Syracuse…”

Henepolis blushed, listening to Davos’s narration, suddenly he remembered What, stood up suddenly, and exclaimed: “Mother! My mother is in danger! …”

“Your mother is fine. According to reliable sources, she was only guarded by Arobmas. Your uncle didn’t hurt your mother at all. After all, your mother used to take good care of your father’s younger brother.” Neapolis looked suspicious and emphasized: “Aristillas told me.”

After living in Davos’ mansion for so many years, Henepolis certainly knew Aristillas It was specially for Davos to collect information, so he felt a little more relaxed, and then he said bitterly: “I must go back immediately, recapture Laos, and severely punish the ungrateful traitor!” Obviously, Arobmas’s The betrayal broke his heart, and

he was so disgusted that he didn’t even want to mention his name.

“Yes.” Davos agreed and reminded him: “Hemon, the administrator of Niutum, and Saru, the administrator of Vig City, are gathering troops. You lead your troops to join them and fight against Arobu together. Mars, Arobmas will definitely not be able to stop you.

But—” Davos changed the conversation and said, “In the beginning, the city of Laos was caused by your father’s painstaking efforts to be independent from the Lucania tribal alliance, and painstaking efforts. After operating for so many years, you can’t bear to have a war that will cause heavy casualties to the Laos and the city to be severely damaged, right?”

Henepolis nodded again and again.

“Herney.” Davos looked at him and said in a deep voice: “Some of the bills you wanted to implement in La Russia were not implemented because of the obstruction of Arobmas and others. But to Laos More rights for civilians, so that they can also enjoy the land like the citizens of Dionia, is what these civilians, who are the majority of the population of Laos, sincerely hope! The people of Russia don’t know the truth very well. Now we just need to publicize these facts, and the people of Laos will know who is really good to them?! Who should they support?! So you can…”

Listen Seeing Davos’ plan, Henepolis’ eyes gradually brightened. He nodded immediately and said, “Your Majesty, I will do as you say! I will let that person know that I was right in the first place!”

When Henepolis left, Davos gave him a strong hug and encouraged him loudly: “Heney, I wish you an early success in retaking Laos, my clerk is still waiting for you to take office. !”

Henepolis nodded confidently: “Your Majesty, wait for my good news!”

……………………………………

The next morning, Dionysian Seventh Legion and He Laklia’s army marched north, and when it reached Metapontum, its gates were wide open, and the remnants of Tarantum and Isalokas and other pro-Tarantum Metapontums had already Escaped to Tarantum last night.

The coalition forces easily captured the city of Metapontum.

Matonis, the commander of the 7th Legion, eager to return to Turii, did not covet the power of the interim chief executive of the occupied territory, and directly handed over the defense of Metapontum to the Heraclea consul Terry Fias, and then led the legion back.

Soon, the changes in the city of Metapontum were noticed by the spies sent by Tudpres.

After getting in touch with Trifias, Toudeples said goodbye to the Carragusos who had taken them in, and promised that from now on, Metapontum would strengthen trade with Carraguso, Especially when it comes to food.

After returning to Metapontum, Tudpres, with the support of Dionia and Heraclea, returned to power, the first thing he did was to lead the few remaining pro Dio Nia sent personnel to avenge the murdered relatives and friends and completely eliminate the pro-Tarantum citizens in the city. People are in danger.

After several tossing, Metapontum’s population has dropped sharply, and its strength has been greatly depleted.

………………………………

When the Seventh Legion was returning to Turii, the Tarantom messenger had already set foot on Turii’s land.

Yesterday, the news of “The Dionysian Fleet defeated the Syracuse Navy, and at the same time almost wiped out the Tarantum land and navy” came back to Tarantum City one after another, which not only shocked the Senate, but also made Tarantum While people are worried about the safety of their relatives, they are very panicked.

So much so that when a rumor spread that “Dionia’s army is marching towards Tarantum”, it caused a huge panic, and many people rushed home, packed their luggage, and prepared to rush to the port. Take a boat to escape this already empty city.

With the situation so critical and dire, the Senate of Tarantum had only one way to go – and that was to make peace with Dionysus.

For this reason, the Senate did not even convene an assembly of citizens, but urgently elected two interim consuls, Dicitimas and Achita’s father, Histiavis, and sent Histiavis to the Two days later, he was sent to Turiyi as an envoy, trying to make Davers open up to Tarantum because of his old friendship with Archita.

Davos was well aware of the purpose of the Tarantum people and did not see Histiavis at all, but asked Kunogolata and Ancitanos to negotiate with Histiavis.

Earlier, Ancitanos had been treated rudely when he visited Tarantum, but now seeing the low-pitched but anxious Hestiavis, even if he was as gentle as he was, he felt a little joy in his heart.

In the face of Histiavis’ suggestion that “Tarantum is willing to make a peaceful truce with Dionia, and make certain war reparations, hoping to release the Tarantum prisoners of war”, Kunogolata and Ansi Thanos just sneered.

Kunogolata even laughed: “Dionia had a covenant with Tarantum before, but you ignored the sacred oath and betrayed us when we needed your help the most! Let us Make a pact with you so that you can sneak up on us while we’re fighting Syracuse?! Do you think we’d be so stupid! To be honest, we don’t know if Poseidon will be angry that you’ve sullied his god Name, but we dare not trust you Tarantum!”

Hestiavis was ashamed after hearing this, and he shouted angrily: “Then you Dionia want to let us Tarantum! How to do it?!”

“Dionia won’t sign any treaty with Tarantum until this war is over, but these 12,000+ Tarantum citizens and nearly 2,000 sailors… um… …Dionia is at war and doesn’t have so much food to support, so whether they can survive until the end of the war depends on whether you Tarantum can provide enough food.” Kunogorata replied coldly .

“I understand. Dionia wants our food, and only food can ensure the safety of the Tarantum prisoners of war, right?” There was a hint of sarcasm in Histiavis’ grief-stricken voice.

“That’s right. Mining requires plenty of physical strength, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain health.” Kuno Gorata said threateningly.

“When will they be released then?” Histiavis asked again.

“Dionys will not release them before the end of the war, otherwise who knows if they will pick up the shield and spear to invade our territory again!” Kunogorata said sternly: “Before that, Dionysus Ya will not sign any agreement with Tarantum, but as long as Tarantum remains calm during this period, Dionia will not invade Tarantum’s territory, this is the personal promise of His Majesty Davos Hearing this,

Histiavis

doesn’t have to worry about Tarantum’s safety for the time being, after all, Davos’s credibility is well-known.
