Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 480

[Chapter 147 Super Spear]

In this regard, Melisanda was not surprised. He knew that his mother actually preferred to live in the small city of Amendolara, and only chose to live in the noisy city of Turii in order to take care of Felixius.

Feeling lonely after Felixius’ expedition, she naturally chose to come to Amendolara to live with his daughter-in-law and grandson.

Melisander walked along the corridor.

“Brother! Brother!…” A little girl ran towards him.

“Little Doris!” Melisanda stepped forward and hugged her three-year-old daughter, Doris, who was born to her mother and Felixius.

“Brother! Brother!…” Then another child staggered towards him.

“Be careful, my darling.” Melisanda hurriedly hugged him with the other hand, and then corrected him dumbfoundedly, “I’m not your brother, but your father, I want to call my father, you know, call me Daddy!”

The boy was Alsinis Jr., the son of Alcines and Hepna.

Melisanda took good care of Hepna during her pregnancy, so he regarded little Alcines as his own.

It’s also interesting to say that the daughter born by his stepfather and mother is very different in age from Melisanda, but is about the same age as his two-year-old stepson, little Alcines, more like a brother and sister.

And little Alcines loved to play with the little aunt.

“No, just call him brother! Just call him brother!” The mischievous Doris urged.

Little Alsinis looked at Doris and Melisander ignorantly, and even called out again: “Brother! Brother!”

Melisanda was angry and funny, and patted Doris’s butt twice. He pretended to be vicious and said, “If you continue teaching little Al, my brother will beat you up!”

Doris immediately burst into tears.

“Melisanda, how old are you, you still don’t know how to let your sister!” A female voice that was not reproachful, but more like a relief, came from the front.

“Mother!” Melisanda stood up and shouted kindly, then turned to the slender young figure beside Delia, and said softly, “I’m back, Hepna.”

Hepna stared at the already long time ago Her husband, who had lost his childishness and became more robust and burly, scrutinized him carefully until she confirmed that there were no scars.

“Hasn’t His Majesty Davos ordered you to go home and reunite only by repelling the enemy?! Why are you back now!” Delia asked in surprise,

she called Davos’s new name so much By the way, because it was their loyal followers of Hades who put Davos on the throne.

“Because His Majesty allowed us to go home and participate in the donation, and return to the barracks tomorrow.” Melisanda replied.

“Ah, go back tomorrow!” Hepna blurted out, she didn’t expect the time together would be so short.

“When the war is over and peace is restored, you can let Melisanda stay at home as long as you want, but now they have to drive away all the enemies who have destroyed our land!” Delia taught her daughter-in-law, she saw with her own eyes Seeing her homeland being ravaged by the Tarantum, she didn’t want it to happen again.

“You’re right, mother.” Hepna replied respectfully.

Melisanda gently pushed away the little hand that his son was scratching on his face, and said, “Your Majesty will soon lead us south to repel the Syracuse people. The biggest problem now is that the food supply is somewhat insufficient—”

“I heard that the situation at your father’s place (referring to Aspurustum) is not very good…” Delia was very worried, not only because of hearing that the soldiers on the front line were short of food, but also because of the failure of the Great War. In the hinterland of Dionia, she could hear some bad words blaming her husband, such as poor commanding ability, etc. It is conceivable how much pressure Felixius on the front line was under: “I want to donate money and food. , Hepna and I were already ready, you came back just in time, and we’ll go to Victory Square together in a while.”

“That’s great!” Melisanda said happily, which saved him a lot of effort.

“Melisenda, my son, you went to the south this time, you must help your father more!” Delia urged again.

How can I help him?

My father is the commander of the south, and I am just a sub-commander of a regiment.

Melisanda thought to herself, but her mouth was full of promises.

Hepna took the little Alsinis from his arms, Delia hugged Doris, and the family entered the main building.

…………………………

“What did you say?! Lord… Your Majesty can’t go home yet?!” Asuna asked anxiously, “But I heard that the soldiers in the military camp have been disbanded. Go home!”

Aristillas said calmly: “Your Majesty has important things to do and will be back later, so let me tell Madam first.”

“I see, we will wait for him. Come back.” Cristoia responded with a smile.

Aristillas said goodbye and left.

“Sister, will Davos not come back today?!” Disappointment and worry were intertwined on Agnes’ pretty face, looking a little pitiful.

Although she was 24 years old, she was always favored by her father before she got married, and after marrying Turii, she was favored by Davos. She was usually either at home or in the temple, and she never suffered any major disturbances and setbacks.

This time she was pregnant for the first time, and she was unavoidably uneasy and in urgent need of someone to accompany and comfort her (the rate of childbirth and dystocia is still very high in this era, even in Dionia, where the medical treatment is relatively advanced), but Davos went on an expedition for more than a month, I’ve been away all the time, I finally heard that I was going to come back, and in a blink of an eye, I said that I would postpone it, and I was naturally worried about gains and losses.

Although Kristoya was also a little depressed, as the mistress who managed the entire house, she still cheered up and tried her best to comfort: “Sister, don’t worry, our husband, it’s not that you don’t know him, he said today When he comes back, he will definitely come back today! You, don’t worry, go to the bedroom and sleep for a while, so that when he comes back, you will be so sleepy that you want to sleep.”

“Okay…Sister, don’t forget to wake me up later. .” Agnes said softly, and she was supported by the slave girl into the main building.

Cristoia sighed lightly, feeling bitter for a while: Agnes has my comfort, but who will comfort me!

…………………………

At this moment, Davos is carefully examining a weapon placed on the table in the large tent: this is a spear, the shape and style are similar to the lance used by heavy infantry. There is no difference, the only difference is the length and diameter of the gun barrel.

It was four meters long, two meters longer than the usual spears used by soldiers, and the diameter of the barrel was thicker.

Just as Davos picked it up, the weapons merchant Theos hurriedly shouted: “Your Majesty, be careful of the top of your head!”

Davos’ height plus the length of the spear almost pierced the high roof, so he had to lift it diagonally, After shaking a few spears, he made a few more thrusts, and then asked with satisfaction: “This spear is well made, is every shot like this?”

Theo said frankly: “Your Majesty, you ask I made 6000 of these spears in such a short time, of course I can’t make every one of them like this one in your hand, the barrels are very smooth, but I can assure you that they work , there is no problem in killing the enemy! And in terms of quality, these spears are stronger and more durable. Because of your approval, we cut down the cedar in the mountains of Amendolara, and used the wood of warships to find the spears, Only then can we ensure that after such a long barrel is connected to the iron head, there will be no big vibration when stabbing, and it will not be easily broken…”

Davos nodded: “Is it all finished?”

“I only found 1400 shots, because Lord Caps

is in a hurry, so send it over first.”

Davos frowned and said, “Hurry up, I’m afraid we won’t be in Turui for a few days and will go to the battlefield again, so we must send this batch as soon as possible. All the spears have been made and distributed to every soldier, and they have to be given time for training. The time is very tight!”

“Your Majesty, we have done our best! We just need to chop down trees, carry, cut and plan. Wood…” Theos began to complain.

Davos interrupted him: “I asked Capps to send you people from the transportation camp to assist you in completing some less important processes, such as cutting trees, carrying, etc., and your people finish the spearhead, The production of the gun barrel, is this okay?!”

“If this is the case…” Theos thought about it carefully, and then said loudly: “I should… can guarantee that after three days… no, the day after tomorrow, I will be able to take all the spears. I’ll bring it

to you!”

“Then it’s hard for you! Regarding the cost of this batch of weapons, UU reading www.sonicmtl.com Now the treasury is tight with money, and it can only be counted for you after the war is over. But don’t worry, I will Let Mersis give you 10% interest.”

Davos just finished speaking, Theos said hurriedly: “Your Majesty, I am willing to donate all these spears to the alliance, and I also donated to the alliance. The three Tarrants have also brought their families to Victory Square. Your Majesty, you took the lead and set an example for us. As a citizen of the Alliance, although I cannot go to the battlefield, I am willing to win this war for the Alliance and dedicate myself to it. Power!”

“Okay! Well said!” Davers praised loudly: “Of course your efforts are all recorded, and when the war is won, the Senate will reward it!”

Davers vaguely mentioned, Raising the spirits of Theos, he immediately took out a few papyrus from his arms and handed them to Davos.

Davos took it and glanced at it. It was densely written with handwriting, and looked at Tios with some doubts.

“Your Majesty, this is the foreign businessmen in the Amendolara handicraft manufacturing area when they heard that the Union called for citizens to donate, and they also expressed, ‘I hope to participate in donations and help the Union overcome this difficulty.’ This is the donation material they drafted. Checklist,” Theos explained.
