"Although it is impossible for Carthage to do anything from now on, don’t let your guard down! There are also... Jera, Leonardo, Camanlina, Agrigento... these Once the affiliated city-states find signs of riots, let Macias immediately send troops to destroy them!" Dionysius said in a deep voice.
"Understood, my lord." Phyllisstos nodded intently.
Dionysius stared at him for a moment, then stepped forward and gave him a strong hug: "I count on you for everything here, my friend!"
Phelestos was about to answer, but he heard Dionysius whisper in his ear: "This is an extraordinary period. As soon as you find any changes in the city, immediately arrest and behead your head. Shock the traitors who want to disrupt this great expedition, understand?!"
The cold words of Dionysius shocked Philistos' heart.
At this time, Dionysius happened to see Herolis talking to others not far behind Felistos, and added in a low voice: "Also-don't trust too much Herolis, during my absence, don’t let him participate in any city-state affairs!"
"Uh...I see, sir." Felistos was taken aback, and then responded.
Dionysius, Phoebe Das and his team boarded a three-layer paddle warship.
Dionysius waved to the people on the dock with ambition: "Everyone, you will soon receive the news of my victory! Next year I will bring Syracuse a wealth and land area no less than Sicily. Great Greece of the island!"
After saying this, he put on a purple cloak and took from the attendant the golden helmet decorated with colorful feathers. After wearing it, he looked even more heroic.
"Go!" Amid the cheers of the ministers, he gave instructions.
…………………………
On this day, almost all merchant ships sailing in the Strait of Messina witnessed this unprecedented spectacular sight: thousands of warships, merchant ships, and passenger ships sailed northward, the length of their fleets from The southeast corner of Sicily stretches to the toe of the Apennine Peninsula, almost blocking the route to the east of the Strait of Messina...
Each ship’s sails are painted with eye-catching "three-legged" patterns, so that no ships dare to cross this seemingly boundless fleet, so as not to be regarded as an intruder. Sink.
Many experienced shipowners immediately anticipated that something major would happen, and they turned around or detoured, hurried to their city-states to deliver this amazing news.
…………………………
The messenger from Hernipolis quickly returned to Laos and conveyed to Arobmas the order that "Dionia's army will go to Picosis through the port of Laos".
Arobumas felt nervous when he learned that Daves suddenly changed his marching route. He immediately accepted and went all out to supervise the matter.
Therefore, by the time Dionia's army arrived in Laos, the hundreds of merchant ships temporarily requisitioned and the Laos army accompanying the war were basically ready.
"Master Daves, welcome you to Laos!" Arobumas led the important officials of Laos to greet him at the gate of the city.
Daves sat on the horse and saw Arobmas leading a bunch of people to salute him. He couldn't help but feel an illusion: Arobmas is the master of this city, and the little guy next to him... …
He glanced at Hernipolis, pressed down the strange thought, then jumped off his horse, took off his helmet, and handed it to the guard beside him: "Master Alobmas, thank you for serving Dio The help provided by Nia!" He saluted Arobumas in earnest.
"This is the responsibility of Laos as an ally!" The man in his forties replied respectfully with his head down.
Henipolis yelled immediately: "Uncle, this time I will go to Potentia with Master Daves!"
Arobumas raised his head and looked at him, a complex expression flashed from his eyes: "I have no objection to this matter, but you have to discuss it with your mother."
"Understood, I'll go tell her now." Hernipolis immediately drove his horse into the city.
At this time, Daves said: "Henipolis is still a child and lacks experience in political affairs. This period has brought a lot of fluctuations to Laos. Thanks to your presence, Laos Only then can it remain stable!"
"Herney and your lord are not a few years apart, but look at him..." Arobumas heard this and blurted out on an impulse. When Daves looked at him with a slightly surprised look, He realized that his tone was a bit heavy, and he hurriedly changed his tone and complained: "Oh, Heney has been a wayward child since he was a child! But managing a city-state is not what you want to do! During this time, officials All have a bit of resentment towards him!..."
"He is still young, and it takes time to sharpen him to become familiar with city-state affairs. So your uncle’s help to him is very important! Of course, during this expedition, I will also enlighten him more. ." On the surface, Daves was comforting Arobumas, but his words revealed his support and maintenance for Hernipolis.
Of course, Alobmus could hear the meaning of his words, and felt a moment of loss in his heart. At the same time, the thought that was suppressed in his heart was slowly loosening.
"Master Davos, I heard that this time tens of thousands of Samoneites invaded Potentia. Is it difficult to beat them back?" Arobmas asked suddenly.
Davers glanced at him and said: "As long as the allies are in trouble, no matter how difficult it is, Dionia will give them all their help! What's more, for Dionia, repelling the Samonais is just one The question of the length of time."
"Yes, yeah." Arobumas laughed and said repeatedly: "Master Daves, you are a victorious general."
Davers smiled, turned around to see that the troops were ready, and asked: "Can we enter the city?"
"Of course." Arobomas said hurriedly: "600 cargo ships are already waiting in the port, uh... Master Daves, you are also very **** this march. I held a banquet at home for you. I’m here to celebrate, and I ask you to leave after you have finished your meal. There is still plenty of time."
"Master Alobmas, thank you for your invitation! But now that the situation is pressing, I should wait for my return from victory to come to your banquet. You will have to prepare more abundant food at that time, because it is not only I, and a few army commanders will also participate," Davers jokingly declined.
"Then I'll wait for you to come back soon!" Arobumas said with a smile. In fact, he had no intention to treat him, he just stood in front of Daves inexplicably flustered and just talked casually.
The bugle began to sound, the drums beat rhythmically, and the Dionian army began to enter the city. Walking in the forefront was a flag bearer with bright armor. The double-stranded cross with black hair, surrounded by colorful gems, is the flag that represents the League of Dionian City-States.
Then came the cavalry. Since the Bruti area was merged into the Dionian League, the number of the Dionian cavalry has greatly increased. The cavalry establishment has increased to 2000, and it has been officially promoted from the cavalry brigade to a regiment. Although the Potentia Mountains are not conducive to cavalry operations, although it is heard that there are not many cavalry of the Samonaes, Daves still carries a thousand horses, and they are led by the captain of the cavalry legion.
The leading cavalry held high the "Pegasus" battle flag, and the following cavalry lined up in three rows, each with a black leather helmet and black leather armor. A neater formation entered the city.
After that is the First Army...
Although Dionia’s army entered Laos during the conquest of Bruti, but today, a few years later, when the soldiers of the Legion with unified equipment and costumes are displayed in front of the Laos people At the time, the people here were quite shocked: the whole army was almost completely dark, and even the shields that the Greeks liked to play their free nature were all uniformly painted with a "double-stranded cross" pattern, consistent, neat, Orderly, coupled with a huge number and high fighting spirit, when the Dionian army in front of you walked on the main road in Laos in a similar way, whether it was Laos nobles, officials, The civilians and slaves were dumbfounded and frightened, including Alobmas who accompanied Davers.
He quickly hurriedly left on the excuse of "arranging the expedition for Hernipolis", and then hid on the roof of his mansion, watching Dionia’s army with a complicated expression. As the port was marching, he kept thinking about a question during this long period of time: can the Dionian army be so powerful, can Syracuse really defeat it?
After finally getting all the Dionian troops out of the city, he was a little relieved.
…………………………
The news of the invasion of Siracusa was the first to reach Lijim. This not only caused panic among the people in the city, but also the council in the city hall was chaotic.
"Master Atilly Cruise, what should I do, the Syracuse is here!"
"According to the shipowners who reported, the fleet in Syracuse covers the entire sea! Oh, it's terrible! It is estimated that the number of soldiers transported is no less than 100,000!!"
"Master Atili Cruz, you must immediately request reinforcements from the Alliance of Dioria and the League of Southern Italy!! Otherwise, when the Syracuses land in Greater Greece, we will be done with Lijim!!!"
……
At this moment, the guards hurriedly came in and reported: "My Excellency, the port lighthouse emergency report, Messina sailed out of a fleet, about 80 warships attacked our port!"
This new message is like adding fuel to the fire and causing the entire city hall to blow up the boat: "By the way, Lord Atili Cruz, our fleet! Where's our fleet?! I said long ago. Now, don’t give our warship to Dionia, you won’t listen! Look what to do now!!"
