Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 923

[Chapter 270 The Return of Satnicum]

One of the Roman soldiers had a low fever before departure, but he concealed it and did not say it, because any soldier who had a fever in the past two days would be transferred from the original team, and then disappeared.

As a result, after he entered the Dionysian military camp, he was very nervous. In addition, he kept standing still, and his body was rapidly exhausted. He suddenly began to vomit, and then collapsed to the ground. When other Roman soldiers saw this, it was like seeing a ghost. Yes, they were frightened and evaded. Although Aulus, Mejus and others took some measures in the city to slow down the spread of the plague and forbid the soldiers to spread rumors and prevent chaos, the soldiers who fell in the past two days More, the soldiers have heard more or less.

The unusual behavior of the Roman soldiers immediately caught the attention of the Dionysian team officer. Besides, Dionysus was also obliged to treat the collapsed Roman soldiers, so he called a doctor.

The doctor who was called was none other than Kritos, who was once praised by Davos at the Great Greek Medical Forum and who was good at research. For the past two years, he was following Hippokra, who stayed in Turii and specialized in medicine. To study at the bottom, you must know that Hippocrates has a very deep research on the plague, and Kritos naturally has a deep accumulation of medical knowledge in this area, just because the Dionysian Kingdom has not yet had a plague. So he has not had the opportunity to put the theory into practice.

After carefully checking the physical condition and vomit of the fallen soldiers, Kritos became suspicious. Excited, he immediately called for Stacey Cordas to confirm. The two exchanged opinions at the scene, and finally Decided to report to Davos immediately.

When Ctisus at the scene learned of the situation, he was shocked. He wanted to immediately lead people to arrest these Roman soldiers for interrogation, but considering that doing so would cause serious diplomatic incidents, he was prudent and asked people to immediately arrest them. The Roman soldiers were isolated, and they rushed to the tent with Stacey Cordas.

As a result, Davos suddenly opened his mouth and swindled, causing Olus to leak the filling.

Although he subsequently denied it, Davos threatened him that if Aulus did not tell the truth, Dionysus would not accept the surrender of the defenders of Satnicum, leaving them to be destroyed by the plague within the city.

Under the pressure, Olus had to admit: Satnecum may have been attacked by the plague.

But he then argued: This is just the beginning, the situation is not serious, so they do not care too much.

Davos told him in a stern tone: The kingdom of Dionia has developed medical skills and has a lot of experience in treating plagues, but everyone in the city of Satnecum must fully follow the instructions of Doctor Dionia. rescued.

In the end, the conspiracy was revealed, and Aulus chose to surrender (because there were many members of the Comeneneus clan in the garrison), and obediently restarted the process with Henipolis, Tolmid, and the medical chief Staceco. Das talks about saving the defenders after surrendering.

Afterwards, Aulus took this agreement in frustration and returned to the city to discuss with Mejus and others.

After Oulus left, Davos immediately announced that the entire Dionysian camp was on alert.

Let Stacey Cordas lead the doctors of the entire camp to check the physical condition of all the soldiers in the camp in detail, focusing on the Roman soldiers who had sneaked out of the city before, and to isolate them.

At the same time, the engineering battalion led the soldiers to boil a large amount of quicklime and re-sprinkled it around the camp; the cargo battalion had to make countless thick linen strips, so that the soldiers had to cover their mouths and noses with it and wear it all day; all competitions and training immediately Stop, the soldiers are not allowed to gather together and wear tents as much as possible during the day; in addition, they must vigorously eliminate the rats in the camp and expel mosquitoes…

In fact, there are some measures that the

Dionysian army has been strictly abiding by, this time it is only Just to re-emphasize.

Davos also ordered that the legionnaires in the camp take turns to go to places farther away from the camp to build three simple and smaller camps.

Davos also asked the officers of each legion to tell the soldiers frankly: There is a plague in the city of Satnicum, and the defenders will surrender.

They don’t have to be afraid, the doctors have made careful preparations, and His Majesty also prayed to Hades and was blessed.

Since the founding of Dionia, Davos has always attached great importance to the medical development of the kingdom, and he also knew that the plague is actually an acute infectious disease through the knowledge of hygiene in his previous life. Sources, such as mice, mosquitoes, corpses, should be disinfected in time for some suspicious places. Lime is a cheap and effective disinfection material… Therefore, in this era of frequent plagues, it can be completely reduced in the kingdom. The outbreak of the plague.

It is precisely because he has always insisted on teaching this knowledge to doctors in the kingdom, and strongly promoted it in the kingdom as a king, coupled with the addition of Hippocrates, who had rich experience in treating plagues in the past few years, that made Dai. There has never been a plague in the kingdom of Onia.

Even during the drought last year, due to the attention of the entire kingdom, the people escaped the custom of “a great plague must be followed by a great plague”.

Therefore, at this time, most of the soldiers in the camp had only heard of the horror of the plague, but had not experienced it in person. In addition, the descendants of Hades, the personal assurance of King Davos, did not feel panic. The order of the entire camp is fairly stable.

A day later, the garrison of Satnicum formally surrendered to Dionia, and the Roman dictator Camillous died of illness after announcing his surrender.

News of his death quickly spread throughout the city, and all the Roman soldiers and the inhabitants of Satnicum were in mourning.

When the city was opened, the body of Camillous was placed on a carriage and carried out first, followed by a line of Roman soldiers, who had sad faces and nervous expressions, and did not wear armor or weapons, but All dressed up.

The Dionian soldiers were all in uniform, armed with shield guns, covering their mouths and noses with linen cloths, and lined up in two dense columns with their heads held high, extending from the city gate to the newly built camp, with a spacious thoroughfare in the middle.

The Roman soldiers marched along this road, but were stopped at the end.

Davos led the generals to the carriage.

Davos looked at the withered-faced remains of Camelus lying flat in the carriage, and he solemnly bowed three times to the father of Rome in the past, and the generals and ministers behind him naturally followed suit.

The originally disturbed Roman soldiers saw this scene. Although they did not understand the meaning of this action, they could also deeply feel the respect of the kings and ministers of Dionia for Camillous, so they became quiet one after another.

At this time, Davos, who was also covered in linen, turned to face the generals and officials of Dionia, pulled down his mask, and said in a loud voice, “Camillous, a Roman citizen, has been participating in the Roman co-operation since he was an adult. The wars of the surrounding city-states, and they have made many achievements in battles. More than 20 years ago, the Romans grew in strength and turned to attack their most important enemy – Weiai. When other Roman generals were helpless to attack Weiai city, The Roman senate appointed Camillous as the commander-in-chief, and after careful planning, he finally captured the city of Victoria, which was no smaller than Rome.

However, his achievements were envied by some Roman citizens, so some people in the Citizens Assembly He was accused of corruption and blasphemy, and the people who did not know the truth actually passed the proposal. According to Roman law, if he was found guilty, he would be expelled. Although Camelus got this result, although he was angry, he still accepted it. Punishment, left Rome, and settled in the nearby Latin city-state.

More than ten years ago, the Celts invaded south and occupied Rome. Camelus was worried about his mother country and called on the people of Latinum to rise up against the Celts. Invasion, in the battle with the Celts, gradually organized a large army, and finally repelled the Celts.

When the Romans gave Camillous great glory for restoring Rome, he Thinking about how the Romans could defeat the mighty Celts in future battles, he did not take the credit, but chose a hard road. He wanted to reform the centuries-old military tradition. , to create a new military system to make the Roman army stronger and more combat-effective.

In the end, he succeeded, and the Roman army trained by the reformed Roman military system won repeated victories in wars with surrounding forces, and every time Rome When encountering difficulties and dangers, the first thing people think of is Camillous, and Camelus, regardless of his aging body, has repeatedly responded to the call of the Senate, and brought Roman citizens to fight east and west. Only 10 years after the Restoration, it has become the overlord of central Italy and the nightmare of other races. If-”

Davos looked at the bright red Roman flag on the carriage, and said with emotion: “If there is no our kingdom of Dionia in the land of Italy, perhaps Rome, a Latin city-state fed by the Tiber River, is in Camelus. Armed with the new military system established, it will continue to be strong, and even become the overlord of Italy, the overlord of the Western Mediterranean…”

The generals such as Amyntas, Matonis, and Lizaru behind Davos heard this. , slightly dissatisfied in their hearts, but on this occasion, how dare they dare to interrupt.

But Aulus, who was at the back of the carriage, was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect King Dionia to be so optimistic about Rome, and he seemed to suddenly understand: why King Dionia dared to ignore Carthage Attack, personally lead a large army to attack Rome, which has no direct conflict of interest with the Kingdom of Dionia.

But will Roma really have as good a future as he says?

Oulus was fascinated, but he couldn’t help sighing heavily when he recalled the current situation.
