Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 504
[Chapter 171 East and West]
The commanders, captains, and even the captains and sub-captains of the Dionian regiments made careful arrangements. The Neto River began to become very lively at this moment. Nearly 60,000 Dionysian soldiers who had long been lined up were there. Under the leadership of their respective team officers, they began to run towards their destination.
The position of the 1st Corps’ crossing the river was close to the sea exit. As the captain of the 1st Company of the 4th Brigade of the 1st Corps, Leotizides led 200 company soldiers in a neat column according to the arrangement of the whole army. On the shore, in front of them stood a 30-meter-long, six-meter-high three-tiered oared warship.
“Hey, Prosous (the pseudonym that Leotidides took in Dionia), let’s see who’s company arrives on the other side first and get in shape!” Company Captain Heitbarus shouted loudly.
Before Leotidides could answer, the soldiers shouted: “The second company dares to compare with us even if they don’t care about their training level!”
“Compared, whoever is afraid! I’m going
to be punished for frog jumping!”
“Hey, what’s going on! They’ve all started leaving before we get on the boat!”
…
“All quiet, stay focused!” Leotizides shouted Roar, the entire company immediately became silent.
Leotidides’ company training was extremely strict, and he was also strict and rigid. He punished soldiers who didn’t train seriously, and beat and scolded those who didn’t train seriously.
Many citizens who have just joined their company felt unbearable and asked to be transferred to other companies.
However, in every battle of the legion, Leotidides not only ranked first in the competition and tactical test of the team officer, but also his company often competed in formation, attack, defense, camp building, siege, etc. He was at the top of the competition in the project, so there were many citizens who admired him and took the initiative to join his company, and the soldiers were both respected and in awe of him.
“You can get on board!” the captain of the warship shouted to the company on the shore.
“Upload the first team, the second team!” Leotizides immediately shouted.
The soldiers in the front row of the two detachments quickly put the ten-meter-long ladder onto the side of the ship. After the hook at the top hooked the wooden rail, the soldiers quickly climbed onto the deck one by one. The warship, the waterline of the entire warship also sank one block. Fortunately, it was near the estuary, the river was deep, and each company was also temporarily responsible for building a short and simple dock.
The warship lifted its anchor, turned its rudder, and stretched out its oars, and the huge hull began to slide southward, faster and faster.
Even downstream, the Neto River was only 80 meters wide at its widest, and the warship quickly reached the opposite bank. After the soldiers disembarked, the warship returned at a faster speed.
In less than ten minutes,
the entire company had completed the formation of the south bank of the Neito River.
At this time, Leotidides showed a smile, obviously satisfied with the performance of the soldiers.
“Pithias!” he cried.
“Yes!” the first division captain responded loudly.
“Go and ask the second company, are they ready?”
“Yes.” When Pithias ran over, the company’s soldiers laughed.
Soon, there was a shouting from the side: “Didn’t your company agree! That’s why we slowed down!”
“You are lying!” The soldiers of the first company laughed even louder.
Leotidides actually liked the lively atmosphere of cooperation and competition in the Dionian Legion, allowing him to relive the intimate scenes of fighting with other warriors in Sparta, and to forget the past. The pain that suffocated him.
He looked forward and thought to himself: Captain Ctipps should sound the bugle for the company to gather.

Under the leadership of the military flag, they stepped onto the pontoon in an orderly manner and marched towards the south bank.
I don’t know which team officer came up with the idea, and the company led the company to sing the Hades hymn aloud to overcome the soldiers’ fear of the swaying pontoon when crossing the river, but the song soon resounded. The entire river section, and each legion brigade and company sang their own songs, as if in the competition whoever sang well and loudly would have more combat effectiveness…
On the four pontoon bridges, four “long dragons” quickly headed towards the unknown south bank. Advancing
, flags fluttering, singing flying…
This scene made Davos, who was overlooking, also excited and his face flushed: After his hard work in the past few years, the Dionysian Alliance has even had such a large-scale army. !
“Your Majesty, should we go?” Caps reminded.
“You can’t wait?!” Davos smiled.
Davos arranged the spear brigade led by Caps to cross the river at the end. Although Caps knew that he must have a deep meaning, the soldiers naturally shouted impatiently when they saw that the other legions were crossing the river. Cross the river quickly.
The newly formed team this time is not as good as the prohibitions of other legions, which shows that it is normal.
Davos didn’t embarrass Capps, and turned around and said, “We have also crossed the river.” The
guards cheered suddenly, surrounded Davos, hundreds of riders stepped on the dust and mist, and rushed down from the river bank…

“Sir, Dionia’s cavalry is coming!” The detective cavalry rushed all the way to report.
When Dionysius, who was at the rear of the army and slowly marching towards the Celestial Court, heard the news, he was instantly refreshed: “How many cavalry are there?”
“About 1,000 cavalry.”
“Dionysian cavalry will come again .
Most of them will die, I will lead my men to kill them all!” Akilita asked loudly for battle.
“Don’t worry.” Dionysius was relieved and smiled: “Dionia crossed the river with so many cavalry at once, and his infantry must also follow. If you lead the cavalry at this time, Achillita. If I go, I will scare the enemy who I managed to lure across the river to scare back.”
“Then what should we Numibians do?” Akirita still didn’t understand what Dionysius meant. .
“Your cavalry will continue to retreat!” Dionysius stared at Achillita, and then at Gaba, who was silent, and gave clear instructions loudly until the two nodded unwillingly. He was relieved, and then said to the attendant: “Let the messengers rush to the front of the team and inform Fasipesas to start returning with the army!”
”
Yes!
”
In the port of Laos, more than 6,000 Dionian soldiers are boarding the ship one after another.
“Lord Bagul, I have to aggrieve you for a few more days about Laos.” Hiros said to Bagul who came to see him off.
“You can rest assured.” Bagul responded solemnly: “Although I also long to go to the battlefield with you and participate in the battle, but as a member of the Senate, I understand the importance of Laos to the alliance, and I will handle it well. until someone sent by the Senate arrives to take over!”
Hiros also solemnly said: “Lord Bagule, please rest assured! Whether it’s a Bruti soldier or a Lucanian soldier, I will Treat them as equals. When the war is over, I will try my best to let them all go home safely!”
Bagul said with a hearty smile: “I will give my brothers to Sir Hiros to be your commander, I am the most at ease! I have already warned me. They must strictly abide by your orders, and if there is any violation, you will be punished according to the Military Law!”
“Thank you!” Hiros expressed his sincere gratitude to Bagule.
At this time, the messenger arrived: “Sir, the soldiers have already boarded the ship, please instruct!”
When Hiros heard the words, he immediately looked at the city with a hint of impatience on his face. He said to Bagul again: “Your Majesty is anxiously waiting for our action. Yesterday was delayed for a day, and the time is very tight! Lord Neapolis hasn’t come yet, I won’t wait for him, you convey my apologies to him for me.”
“Um…um…you wait, he should be here soon…” Bagu Le Que persuaded with a strange expression: “Hernepolis said…there is something very important to tell you.”
“Important thing?” Hiros looked suspiciously at Bagule with a strange face, and asked: “What’s the matter?”
“Well, wait for him—” Bagule was thinking about how to prevaricate when a clear voice came from behind him: “Lord Shiros, you have been waiting for a long time!”
Hearing this, Baguli breathed a sigh of relief.
Hiros widened his eyes, because it was Henepolis in full uniform walking towards him.
Do you need to wear armor for the farewell?
Hiros remembered that even when Laos was recaptured and the army entered the city, the young consul was wearing casual clothes.
Just when he was a little confused, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com brought 50 equally well-armed warriors to Henepolis and came to him: “Lord Hiros, let’s go!”
“Go? and You?” Hiros thought he had heard it wrong.
“When I left Turii, His Majesty Davos promised me to serve as his secretary to participate in witnessing this war, and Laos, as an ally of Dionia, had the responsibility to participate in the next battle, So I’m going to perform my duties now!” Henepolis said with a serious expression, but there were a few small coursing in his words.
“You… but what about Laos?” When Laos was in a state of ruin, his consul actually left, which is why Hiros felt unbelievable.
“Yesterday you and Bagula handled the city’s affairs very well. I’ve talked to Lord Bagula and asked Ariandos to cooperate fully with him, no problem at all, right, Lord Bagula ?” Henepolis winked at Bagul.
Facing the questioning gaze of Hiros, Bagul shrugged helplessly: “I have no choice. If I don’t agree to Lord Henepolis’ request, I can’t call so many ships at all.”
