Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 483

[Chapter 150 A Moment of Joy]

Cynthia and Adoris nodded again and again, and Little Chloe asked excitedly, “Then can I play with them?”

“Of course.” Davos laughed.

Little Chloe jumped and jumped with joy at once.

“I haven’t been to the temple for divination yet, so I don’t know if it’s a male or a female!” Agnes said coquettishly. In the Hera Temple she is in charge of, there are priests who specialize in divination for pregnant women, because the pregnancy is still early. , the belly has not been fully revealed, so she has not done it yet.

However, Agnes prayed silently every day to Hera, whom she served, to give her a healthy boy.

“I’m a favored one. I said it was a boy, and you must be a boy!” Davers of course knew what she was thinking, so he said solemnly.

“Really?!” Agnes blinked, dubious.

“Okay, now we have five children in our family!” Davos said loudly to Cristoia and Agnes with a smile: “You have to keep working hard to make up ten and form a team. ”

It’s so hard to give birth to a baby, do you think it’s as easy as marching and fighting

!” Cristoia scolded immediately.

Davos laughed, and there was a burst of laughter in the bedroom.

By the end of the night, the children had all gone to sleep, and Eunice was also carried to the outhouse by Asuna, and the three people in the bedroom were sleepy.

Agnes finally couldn’t help looking at Davos, and said faintly, “I… I went back to sleep…”

“What are you going to go back to!” Davos grabbed her and blurted out without hesitation: “Now Sleep here all night, let me accompany you well!”

“How can this work?” Although Agnes was heartbroken, she looked at Cristoia in embarrassment.

“Sister, just stay.” Cristoia said seriously: “Davers will return to the barracks tomorrow, and I don’t know when he will be back. Our sisters will talk to him tonight!”

Really only talk.

Cristoia had just given birth and was unable to have sex; Agnes was still in the early stages of her pregnancy, and she couldn’t be in love with Davers either.

Blowing out the candles, lying between Cristoia and Agnes, with their intoxicating body fragrance lingering on the tip of their noses, holding their slender fingers in his hand, Davos unexpectedly felt a kind of “wish long companionship” in his heart. Here, I don’t want to go to court early” happiness…

“When will this war end?” Agnes

asked softly, leaning on her husband’s side.

“I’m afraid it will take a few months… huh…” Davos replied, Agnes’ hair was sticking to the side of his face, making him a little itchy, but his hands were held in the arms of the two wives , he couldn’t draw it out, so he had to try to blow it open with his mouth.

“It’s going to take that long!” Agnes’ low voice was full of disappointment.

“Don’t worry, before you give birth, I can definitely end the war and return to Turii to accompany you!” Davos comforted her.

“Really?!” Agnes was a little surprised.

“Really!” Davos said in a deep voice.

“Sister, look how good he is to you! When I was pregnant with little Chloe and Eunice, he never said such a thing!” With Cristoia’s dissatisfied voice, Davos’ left hand There was severe pain, and he resisted and did not cry out.

“Then I’ll wait for you to come back. You should also pay attention to safety on the battlefield!” Agnes chuckled and kissed affectionately on the side of his face. After a while, a slight snoring sounded in Davos’ ear. .

Agnes actually fell asleep.

“It’s good to be pregnant, you can fall asleep when you want, unlike me because of Eunice… um…” Kristoya just sighed, Davos turned around and kissed it Her rosy lips.

The long kiss almost made her breathless.

“Agnes is still in bed—” Cristoia took a deep breath, and just said something shy, Davos kissed her again.

During this period of time, because of the pregnancy of the two wives and the intense war that followed, Davos, who had been abstinent for a long time, couldn’t hold back. The kiss after kiss melted Cristoia’s restraint, but she still kept it. With the last hesitation: “Darling, I have a little bit below…”

“I understand.” Davers said softly in her ear: “Baby, you can use your mouth and hands…”

Christopher Ya shyly took a bite on his firm shoulder.

Davos untied her clothes, bowed down, and gently sucked in the restricted area where her daughter usually breastfeeds…

Soon, a suppressed and seductive moan came from the bedroom…

With the support of the Persian governor Phanabazus, the Athenian general Konon, following the victory of the naval battle at Knidos, took another great shock to the Spartans. The move—that is, once again occupying the island opposite the Laconia Gulf—Sithira, and using it as a naval advance base in Athens, can not only control the passage of the Spartan Confederate fleet into and out of the Eastern Mediterranean, but also monitor Movement in the Gulf of Laconia.

What worried the Spartans most was this: they were afraid that the Athenians would incite Spartan Heroes to flee to Scylla, as they had done during the Peloponnesian War, which would lead to Spartans. Unstable at the rear.

Even Spartan ships entering and leaving the Gulf of Laconia are now extremely cautious, for fear of running into the Athenian fleet.

When the passenger ship Cleethorpes was on set off from Gofiian, the only good port in Sparta, located at the mouth of the Olotas River, he saw the nervous expressions of the captain and the sailors, which made him involuntarily look at him. The looming, grey outline of the land on the sea far to the northeast was the island of Sythira, occupied by the Athenians.

Kerethopston was full of worries about Sparta: at sea, the Athenians had the upper hand, and the Spartan Confederate fleet did not even dare to garrison the Gulf of Laconia, and retreated to the Peloponnes On the west side of the peninsula; on land, due to the stubborn defense of the Anti-Spartan League on the Isthmus of Corinth, the Spartan army could not advance an inch, forcing the Council of Elders to finally decide to change the commander again, and let the convalescent Agassiz Rolls is back in action.

For this personnel change, Kerethorpes is cautiously optimistic: he does not deny that he is more optimistic about the commanding ability of this frail Spartan king, and Agesilaus’s achievements in Asia Minor in the past few years have already served him well. won a great reputation.

But the anti-Spartan alliance had Persian support, and Chrysopus, who had been to Persia, knew: it meant that Sparta’s enemies had endless wealth to back them up, and even if they failed time and time again, they were still ready to go. It is possible to recruit another huge army, but the number of citizens of Sparta is limited, so it is of great significance for me to send Turiyi this time. I want to stop the war between Dionia and Syracuse as soon as possible. Let Syracuse, the overlord of the Western Mediterranean, free up his hands to aid Sparta. With the support of Syracuse’s powerful navy and huge army, Sparta has more confidence in ending the war successfully!

But would Dionia agree?

The image of a 19-year-old young man came to Kerethorpes’ mind, and that was the first time he saw Davos.

Since we parted in Asia Minor, five or six years have passed, and I have never seen this young man again. I only learned about him from rumors.

And every time the news comes, Clethorpes is surprised: the former teenager is now a powerful ruler in the Western Mediterranean region, and he dares to compete with Syracuse, the overlord of the Western Mediterranean!

Now is not what it used to be, how to convince him?

Kerethorpes did not have full confidence in his heart, and could only go all out.

And another missionary object gave him even more headaches: Dionysius, all Spartans who have come into contact with the tyrant of Syracuse say that his greed, domineering and wickedness will pay off, and now let him end How could he agree to a war with an advantage if it didn’t satisfy him!

With a heavy sigh, Clethorpes suppressed the vexing questions for a moment, and asked aloud: “How long will it take to get to Turii?”

“About two days,” replied the captain.

…………………………

The process of Arobmas usurping Laos was very smooth.

Because of his long-term management, the chiefs and officials in the city chose to support him, not the young Henepolis who would damage their status and interests as soon as he took office. His troops were taken away by him again, so Arobmas easily controlled the whole city, except that the price he paid was only a scolding from his sister-in-law.

After the plan to seize the Lahe Fortress failed, he did not panic, but resolutely shrank his troops and strengthened the city defense to defend against the possible attack of the Dionian army. He thought: As long as Laos can hold on for ten days and a half months, I believe that in the east of the mountain, the Syracuse army’s attack on Dionia can make greater progress, and the whole situation of Dionia will be Big change.

By then, maybe Laos still has the opportunity to expand!

Arobmas devoted himself to his defense plan, and some rumors in the port also began to spread and expand under the control of people with intentions.

“Henipolis is a good consul! In order to allow us civilians to gain more rights, he has issued many laws that are beneficial to our civilians, but the nobles headed by Arobmas refuse to implement them!”

” Did you know? Our consul issued a ‘land plan’ to allocate land to our poor, but Arobmas threatened his nephew and forced him to withdraw the bill!”

“Brothers, we help Avinoji The family drove away the Lucanians, but our lives did not change, we still had no money and no land, and we still did the same hard work and heavy work as when we were slaves before. We are called slaves, we can’t go on like this!”
