At this moment, thunderous cheers sounded: "Daves! Daves!!! Daves!!!..." The shouts were so neat, loud, and overwhelming all the noise, so Several leaders couldn't help but change their colors.

"That's Menon's mercenaries!" Timathon stood on tiptoe and looked in the direction of the voice.

"It should be a mercenary named Daves now!" Hieronymus said enviously.

Davos on the stage smiled, and he said: "Warriors of Greece, I am Daves of Thessaly, instead of Menon, I will become the new leader!"

When the soldiers on the stage finished speaking, the soldiers of the Davos Barracks immediately stood up, applauded and cheered for him, causing the other soldiers to look at each other: Are these guys crazy? !

Some people who knew the inside story began to show off in front of their companions: "I heard that this young man is the favored one of Hades, and every time he gets an'oracle', it works!"

"I heard that he will magically save the dying soldier. That's right! It's the one standing behind him!"

"He also invented something useful to us! For example, this one on my leg...well leggings..."

The soldiers passed word of mouth. In a blink of an eye, everyone looked at him with less contempt and more curiosity.

Davers' words reached their ears again: "Just now, Kerry Thorpes' words were very exciting, but they were too short! Just like when men and women do that, women are just getting excited. The man is over, how uncomfortable the woman should be!"

The soldiers in the audience did not expect to spit out such vulgar words in the mouth of this somewhat childish young man. After a moment, they burst into laughter: "Hahaha..."

Many people also took the opportunity to boo wretchedly....

"This young man is funny!" Many soldiers nodded with a smile.

"Nonsense! It's too messy!" Timathon looked at the guest Rethorpes and scolded.

Xenophon is also very surprised. The Daves he knows is a young man with unique knowledge and polite speech. He shouldn't be so rude.

Krythorpes didn’t speak. Although Daves was mocking him, he was not angry. Kerrythorpes, who had been living in the barracks before the age of 30, knew the soldiers’ thoughts well, and he didn’t know Dave. Did Si make a mistake or deliberately, in short, this nasty joke has made the soldiers feel intimacy with this too young leader. It also made Kerry Thorpes look forward to the next speech.

"When I came up just now, I saw all of you downcast, and some of them even had tears in their eyes. You are afraid! Afraid that you will not be able to return to Greece! You are afraid! The fear of the Persians will destroy you! — But, think about it carefully. When we were in the hinterland of Persia, our employer, Cyrus, was killed. When we didn’t know what to do, the Persians, who had more soldiers than most of us, didn’t immediately attack us and destroy us. Us! How did they do it?" Davers slowly aroused the interest of the soldiers with questions.

"Everyone here is very clear. The Persians spent energy to negotiate with us, provide us with a wealth of food, and accompany us so far... They spent so much time, money and energy, That’s why our leader was fooled and killed by them!” Daves said slowly, then he paused and asked loudly, “Soldiers, tell me! Who is scared?! Scared?!— —It’s the Persians! They are more afraid than us! They are afraid of our bravery! They dare not fight us head-on! They cowardly only dare to use these conspiracies quietly! They are afraid of us more than their gods, so that they violate The pledge made before the gods!

Now they have killed our leader. When we were in chaos, they didn't dare to attack us immediately, and wanted to let us surrender! Faced with such a timid Persian, what is there to be afraid of everyone here! You know, we Greeks are a race that is not afraid of any threats! ——Decades ago, Darius, King of Persia, led an army and conquered all races in this land. When he pointed the next target of conquest to the very weak Greek city-states on the other side of the strait, soldiers, please tell me, has Greece surrendered? ! "Davers leaned forward, straightened his right hand, and asked the soldiers under the stage loudly.

"No." Someone answered one after another.

"It's too low, I can't hear it! Please tell me has Greece surrendered?!!!" Daves asked in a louder voice.

"No!" The answer was neat this time.

Daves is still dissatisfied: "The voice is as small as a timid Persian! Again, has Greece surrendered?!!!"

"No—Yes!!!" the soldiers yelled, their emotions started to be mobilized.

"Yes! We Greeks did not succumb! In the marathon, the Athenians beat the Persian army to the bottom with less than more, and Darius rolled back to his lair, and died of illness within a few years. His son Xue In order to get revenge, the Sith gathered an unprecedentedly large army and invaded Greece again. However, we Greeks never succumbed to power!

Soldiers, tell me, where did we beat the Persians? ! "

No more guidance from Daves this time, the soldiers enthusiastically spoke: "Salamis!"

"Platia!"

"There are hot springs off!"

……

Daves took the conversation: "Yes, the Greek people are united and defeated the Persians again, making Greece a fertile land of freedom, with peace and prosperity for the next few decades. Soldiers, who can you Tell me the names of some generals and soldiers who participated in the battle against Persia?!"

"Metaiade!"

"Aeschylus!"

"Philippe Des!"

"Leonida!"

"Mistokeli!"

"Aristide!"

"Paul Sania!"

……

The soldiers scrambled to shout out the names one by one. At first they were the names of generals, and then the names of soldiers who participated in the war... The Hippo War had only passed for about eighty years, and it spread to almost the entire Greek world. Mercenaries We remember it still fresh, and even many of the soldiers present were descendants of those who participated in the war. They couldn’t wait to proudly publicize the names of their ancestors, even Zanteparis, Crianno, and Hironimos. The leader couldn't help being involved. The atmosphere in the entire venue began to boil...

Tima Song couldn't help his eyes widening, realizing that he had underestimated the young man.

After a long time, the shouts from all directions weakened...

Davers continued to say with passion: "These names in your mouth, they were written into history by Herodotus, and written into your memory! They became Greek heroes! Their spirits and gods As immortal! We grew up listening to their stories, and when we grew up, we took them as examples, eager to complete the earth-shattering feats like them! Now-soldiers, you have a chance, a great A chance to become a Greek hero and write into history like them!” Speaking of this, Daves paused again.

The eager soldiers stood up and couldn't wait to ask: "Tell us! What opportunity?!"

"Didn't you find out!" Daves said loudly, "Although our ancestors defeated the Persians, they were either on the Greek mainland or at sea. There has never been a Greek army capable of invading the Persian Empire. And we have gone deep into the hinterland of Persia. As long as we work together to defeat the Persians, overcome many difficulties, and finally return to Greece, then we have made history! Our deeds will be written into books, made up into ballads, and sung throughout Greece. , Beautiful girls and cute children will haunt us, let us tell our adventure stories! Our children and grandchildren will be as proud of us as we are today! More importantly——"

Daves took a deep breath and said excitedly: "Our deeds will inspire the Greeks in the future! Let them know that the Persians look strong, but they are actually weak internally. They are just a giant made of clay. The country. Just like people, there are times when they are strong and there are times when they are old. When one day, when Persia and Greece go to war again, the Greeks will use our example to invade Persia along the route we have taken. When they win. , When we came to the battlefield where we used to spread our blood, what would they say when sacrificing us and praising us?!"

The soldiers were utterly intoxicated.
