Segowani was annoyed, but he had to follow this decision.
Since Alexis learned that Samona’s main force was stationed in Beneventum, he no longer sent troops to the city of Beneventum, and also withdrew the ballista unit, but the improvement and reinforcement of the entire camp was still Keep going.
Although the intensity of the harassment of the Samonaites on the coalition camps is increasing, the increasingly sophisticated camps provide adequate protection for the soldiers, and the Potentia warriors and Abeniru who have not met in battle for more than ten years The Mu fighters have also gained a lot of experience in successful defenses again and again, and their responses have become more and more appropriate.
The camp of the Dionian Allied Forces was constantly fighting, and deep trenches were dug out, thick soil barriers were built, strong wooden fences were erected, and towering guards were erected. In the building, there are dense deer villages and traps...
The soldiers sent by the Sammonite coalition to attack the grain road were left idle because Alexis had stored sufficient grain in the camp beforehand and had not carried out the ration transport for the time being.
………………………………………
The next day, a bad news came to the city of Bereventum—aequum was besieged by the Dionian army.
Equiium, a town in Shilpini, it is located directly east of Beneventum, on the edge of the eastern mountainous area of Samona, not far from the Dawney area, it is neither like Aquilon Located on the top of the mountain, Nia is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Unlike Bereventum, the population is large, and the small population is half drawn by the tribal coalition forces, and the Dionian army that surrounds it It is said that there are nearly 10,000 people.
The four leaders knew in their hearts: If there is no reinforcements, Equiium's fall will be very fast.
But Lescuk saw Segowani sneer at him, and remembered what he had told him yesterday, so he didn't mention any reinforcements at all, but was thinking about how to persuade the Equiium soldiers in the army. And to appease other tribes whose military aspirations are floating.
But Badani said anxiously: "The Kingdom of Dionia has a large population and so many allies. They can summon much more soldiers than us. Now they are using this advantage to increase their Even if we gather all the soldiers in less than 20,000 people, even if we defeat the enemy outside the city, we can’t change our disadvantaged situation!
Although we don’t know how the war between Dionians and Carthage went, it is clear that Carthage did not have the advantage, otherwise the Dionians would not be able to invest so much force on us. We originally The hope of relying on the Carthaginians now seems to have failed. What should we do? ......" Badani tried several times to say "just a truce with Dionia", but in the end he resisted it. He didn't want to be scolded by the stubborn old man again.
Of course the other three could hear what he meant, but even Kontruk remained silent. The room was silent, and the four of them were thinking about their own thoughts.
In the evening, Segovani, who was anxious about the current battle situation, once again received a request for help from the Lola messenger: Dionian-Campania coalition forces are in desperation to siege the city, and they have built a hill above the city wall. , And also manufactured many siege equipment that has never been seen before, which is a great threat to the defense of the city wall. If you can't get reinforcements immediately, Lola is in danger of being destroyed!
Segovani finally couldn't sit still, he immediately went to find Lescuk and asked to bring troops back to Lola immediately.
Lesguk certainly didn't want Segovani to lead his troops away, because Kautini is now the strongest among the four tribes. If they leave, the entire coalition force might be reduced by half.
So Lescuk hurriedly persuaded: "The main force of Dionia is here. There will not be too many enemies attacking Lola. You only need to send one or two thousand people to reinforce, and you can completely defend Lola. Pull. The most important thing for us now is to defeat the enemies outside the city!——"
"Defeat? How to defeat?!" Segowani coldly interrupted him: "Just use your cowardly method?! Our soldiers have been guarding the mountains for two days, and they have not seen To a pack beast that transports baggage! Even if one day we really intercept Dionian’s baggage, I am afraid that all of the towns in the Campania plain in Cavutini will be lost!"
At this time, Leskuk ignored Segowani’s sarcasm and simply persuaded: “If you really want to go back in a hurry, why not do this? We have a good discussion with the chief leaders, and we will talk to Dai within two days. The Onia camp launched a fierce attack, first defeated them, and then returned to Lola together—"
"Enough! Lescuk, do you think I am a fool like Kontruk and Badani, you can be fooled by you at will!" Segowani glared at him and yelled loudly. Said: "In the past few days, we have sent soldiers to attack the enemy's camp many times, and many soldiers have been killed and injured. I believe you should be very clear about how difficult the enemy's camp is! Now, you want us to attack it, you think. Will all my people die?!
Les Guk, you are a person who can only play with cleverness, can only play tricks, do things but hesitate, lack decisiveness and cruelty, more than ten years have passed, you have not been able to get rid of Gailny, calm down Abeni Rum, instead let them become our confidant! We launched a war against Dionia. Most of the actions we implemented came from your suggestions. We have lost more than half of our soldiers, but we have not won a victory!
Two days ago, Camp Dionia was far less troublesome than it is now. If you follow my suggestion and launch an onslaught, you will definitely gain a greater gain, but you are dissuaded by you, and now we wait for Dionia People have completely repaired the camp, but you let us attack...Les Guk, I can see you through. You are not worthy of being the chief of Silpine, and you are not worthy of being the commander of the battle. You are just a The poor worm who was defeated by the Dionians more than ten years ago and has always been afraid of them! "
The scar was lifted by Segovani. Lescuk was ashamed and angry. An anger hit his brain. He suddenly rushed over, holding Segovani’s hand with one hand, and pinched Segovan with the other. Ni’s neck.
Segovani struggled so hard that he couldn't break free, his face changed suddenly, and he hissed: "Les...Guk, what do you... want to do?!"
"What do you say I want to do?!" Lescuk approached him grimly: "You said I don't deserve to be a leader, are you worthy?! Look at your thin body, also worthy of being brave The Samona warrior?! No wonder that the chief leader of Kautini and the people have been paying attention to Quinduk as the chief leader! If you were not secretly tricking him and slandering his reputation, how could you become the chief leader! And what did you do after becoming the leader?! Tore up the covenant with the Dionians, invaded the Campania alliance many times, and triggered the war with Dionia. Not only did you suffer a crushing defeat, you also became yourself. Captive!...
Said I don’t deserve to be a leader, do you deserve it! Saying that I am not suitable to lead the war, if without me, you **** would still be imprisoned by the Dionians. Not only do you not be grateful, but you also insult your benefactor. Could it be that we Samonais have a tradition of repaying kindness? Did you throw it away! You said that I can't do anything with Gellney, is it your credit to get rid of Quindock! That's not my suggestion, the cooperation of a few big leaders, otherwise you can think of a way to solve him with your stupid head! ——"
"What are you two doing!" Kuntruk, who came to hear the news, walked into the room, saw the two entangled together, and yelled: "As the leader of the tribe, I don’t think about it. Defeating our enemies, but in the mood to beat and scold here, are you not afraid to let the people see the joke!"
Lesguk took the opportunity to let go of his hands, stepped back, his face was immediately full of apologetics, and he explained aloud: "We had a dispute just now because of something. I was too impulsive. I apologize to you, Brother Se Varney, I hope you can forgive me!"
Segovani rubbed his pinched neck with his hands, his cold eyes pierced Leskuk: "Forgive?! Unless you die!"
Throwing down this sentence, he turned around and walked out.
Kontruk Zou frowned and said dissatisfied: "Segowani, some small disputes should not affect our unity, otherwise--"
"Shut up, old fellow!" Segowani unceremoniously interrupted Kontruk's preaching: "The three of you will unite by yourself. I am leaving. I will lead my clan tomorrow morning. The soldier leaves, I want to see how long Beneventum can support!" He strode out of the room.
"What the hell...what happened?!" Kontruk was rarely insulted by others, his old face flushed.
Les Guk also looked ugly, but he didn't answer.
But Badani, who had just arrived outside the door, heard the conversation between the three and quietly turned and left.
………………………………………
That night, Segowani refused to see anyone, and said what he said, regardless of the repeated persuasion of the two chiefs of Lescuk and Kontruk, he led Cavutini’s early in the morning of the next day. 8,000 fighters left the city of Beneventum.
Just as the two chiefs looked at the empty Kautini camp in the city and complained about Segowani's narrow-mindedness and disregard of the overall situation, there was another bad news in the city: Big Chief Badani has assembled More than 4,000 Pentney fighters have to leave the city through the north gate and return to their territory.
Lesguk was shocked: The Cavutini army has left, and the Pentenid army leaves again. Even if the Samona tribe coalition forces fall apart, there are only less than 7,000 soldiers left in the city. More than 20,000 enemies outside the city are completely at a disadvantage!
So he rushed to the north of the city again, trying to dissuade Badani.
Kontruk originally followed closely, but not long after he slowed down, because he suddenly felt: Badani led the team to leave may be a good thing, as long as he blocked the invasion of the east enemy and defended Pent Ni’s territory, Karacheni, north of Pentney, is naturally safe.
