lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Mediterranean Overlord of Ancient Greece!

This is the only veteran who has voluntarily given up on the campaign. On the contrary, Daves thinks his self-knowledge is particularly rare.

In the end, Trifias was successfully elected.

Next, Xima was elected as the chief executive of the Bruti region, Latignes was elected as the chief executive of the Lucania region, and the most important region of the kingdom, the Turri region, was the last to be elected ( Because the original Turiy region itself had a regional nature, the towns under its jurisdiction occupies most of the newly-divided Turiy region by Daves. Under the suggestion of several rotating chairmen, Daves was finally cancelled. The original administrative unit of the Turiyi Region was passed in the Senate, thereby avoiding future conflicts between the chief executive of the Turiyi Region and the regional chief executive.) Originally everyone thought it would be The fiercest campaign, so many powerful elders specially avoided it and went to compete in other areas. As a result, the first name called out by the ceremonial officer made the hearts of the remaining elders who were interested in campaigning cold: "Master Alexis !"

Military Secretary Alexis also participated in the election, so he is likely to represent the opinions of the entire army veterans.

"I choose Lord Hiros." Alexis's voice was not heavy, but those who were still lucky enough were hit again.

He was also a mercenary, he also made a lot of military exploits for the kingdom, and he also served as a minister of military affairs, but the difference between Hiros and Alexis is that he has also made great achievements in civil affairs. Before the Mediterranean War, he served as the chief executive of many cities and towns, and after he stepped down as the Minister of Military Affairs, he went to the Samone Mountains to become the chief executive of Beneventom. He has an outstanding political record and is a rare military and political all-rounder. . More importantly, he had a close relationship with King Davos during his expedition to Persia more than 20 years ago, and now he is one of the ministers trusted by Davos.

So, originally thought the result of the most fierce competition in the final round was completely one-sided. Hiros has won more than 70% of the votes and was successfully elected as the chief executive of Turriy District.

When all the results were settled, the long meeting was finally coming to an end, but the veterans were excited and disappointed... and all, it seemed that they were still not finished.

Daves kissed his throat and finally said: "Congratulations to the veterans who have become district chief executives. Your efforts in past government affairs have been recognized by most of your colleagues today. But the promotion of your position What is coming is only temporary joy, and what you are facing will be a greater test. To manage more towns, to govern more people, there are undoubtedly more difficulties, and even some of the administrative experience gained in the past is in the new It may no longer be suitable for government affairs. This requires you to make more efforts to find out a set of effective methods for governing the region in continuous practice and solving difficulties, which will become the experience that later generations can learn from. I also hope that you We can make these areas more prosperous, and we can live up to the recommendation and trust of other veterans!

Other veterans who are interested in becoming one of them in the future, hope that you will continue to work hard and gain more political achievements to win the recognition of your colleagues and me. I believe that you will eventually become the regional chief executive or the important minister of the kingdom like them. Because the kingdom has a vast land and a large population, it needs more outstanding administrative talents to manage this great country that is still expanding, and you are the elites of the kingdom, and you must take on this important task! ……"

Daves's remarks expelled the loss in many elders' hearts, and also ignited the expectations of more elders. The meeting came to an end amidst enthusiastic applause.

A few days later, the elected district chiefs successively went to the jurisdictions they were responsible for. As the first chiefs of the kingdom, the first thing they had to do was to transfer according to the framework of the district administration established by the Kingdom Administration. The officials that he thinks are suitable, come to enrich the entire management organization.

Half a month after the new "Immigration Act" was announced, the recruitment of the Border Guard Corps began.

The freedmen in the kingdom saw that things were unchangeable and began to make choices for their future. Eventually many young freemen came to Turiyi, and according to the requirements of the notice, they flocked to the Turiyi barracks and prepared to pass the registration. And selection to become a mercenary soldier in the Kingdom of Dionian.

At the same time, the two newly promoted commanders also went to their new posts. Patroclus went north to Rome, took over the 14th Army, and replaced Plintors (Plintors). He was also outstanding in the Western Mediterranean War. Daves wanted to reuse it, but considering that he was from the Mountain Reconnaissance Brigade, he was later transferred directly to the staff office, lacking further familiarity with the Legion’s affairs and serving in the Legion. Resume, in order to avoid being criticized in the future, he was specifically asked to form a new army in the Latham area after the war. After a few years, his performance was satisfactory, and Daves thought it was time to transfer him back to take charge of the staff of the military department. Work). Sextus took a boat to southern Iberia, took over the Eighteenth Army Corps, and replaced Calcidis.

After the Western Mediterranean War, Calcidis, who was once the first captain of the Eighth Army, was promoted to the commander of the Legion because of his dedication to Selinus. We gossiping, and under Davers's suggestion, he volunteered to go to southern Iberia to form the Eighteenth Army.

This was indeed the most bitter, tiring, and troublesome errand, because the Kingdom of Dionian was not yet able to fully control southern Iberia, and most of the territory was still governed by members of the Magonyd family. The people under the jurisdiction are either Phoenicians, Carthaginians, or Iberian natives. Dionians have rarely emigrated here, so Calcidis has been subject to many constraints since he arrived, but he still overcomes After several years of hard work, the Iberian army barracks were built and the Eighteenth Army was formed, and the citizens there were trained as far as possible in accordance with the requirements of military law. However, Calcidis was obviously unable to act like other legions, and the lack of cooperation from many local officials made the Eighteenth Legion less effective in defending the territory from the Iberian natives.

Now that Baghul has become the Chief of the Regional New Deal, he will increase the management of the territory and eliminate those unqualified officials. In addition, the southern Iberia region will also add a border army, which has been in a defensive position. The Eighteenth Army finally waited for a good opportunity to fight back. It is a pity that at this time, Calcidis was transferred back to Turriy, which may become a great regret for him.

Not long afterwards, the Military Affairs Department also announced the names of the long-awaited commanders of the two border legions that were being formed.

One was Stefros. He was the captain in the Western Mediterranean War, but his military exploits were not as dazzling as his friend Patroclus, so he was promoted to legion commander two years later, but because there was no vacant one. The position, which has been in charge of training team officers in the Turiyi military camp, is finally waiting for it to come.

Although in the eyes of many Dionia generals, the soldiers of the Border Army are all freedmen, which seems to be lower than the existing corps, but according to the regulations of the Ministry of Military Affairs, The ranks of the rank officers are the same as those of other regiments, and at this stage they are all appointed by the kingdom's regular officers (squad leaders are not counted as officers).

The name of another legion commander surprised the generals: It used to be the main force against the Dionian army in the Western Mediterranean War and the main member of the Magonid family-Hasdru bar.

Why is it him? ...Many generals are puzzled, and some even quietly ask the Ministry of Military Affairs.

The public reason is: Hasdruba is a veteran of the kingdom and a high-ranking officer of the kingdom (after the southern Iberia was merged into the Kingdom of Dionia, the Iberian army under the commander of Margot was ordered to disband , But considering Hasdruba’s prestige among the local people, and in order to make it easier to form a new army in Iberia, Daverst has set up a high-level military post for him-military training in southern Iberia. The sir, in fact, hopes that he can call on the local people to actively participate in military training. The real specific tasks are completed by a group of military training officers under his command. But Hasdruba obviously did not put this position in his eyes. The duality of defeat and surrender. The attack and the inability to control the real military power made him decadent for several years, but this military position has never been removed from him). At the same time, he followed Margo in the battle in Iberia for 10 years, and has rich combat experience in fighting against fierce natives in the mountains. This is precisely what needs to be taken advantage of in the next border defense operations.

Daves’s real reason for appointing him as the commander of the Frontier Corps is: After Haka and Hasdruba and other important members of the Magonis family are transferred from southern Iberia, the next kingdom has to deal with this Areas that have not yet been fully brought under the rule will be rectified, not only for civil affairs but also for the military. Therefore, let Hasdruba become the commander of the kingdom army and let him serve the kingdom willingly in order to take advantage of his The influence weakened by the soldiers of the former Iberian army officers who lived in that area gave them hope again and ensured the stability of the area.

Of course, Hasdruba is indeed a military talent, which is also an important reason why Daves is willing to reactivate him. However, Hasdruba is not familiar with Dionian's military system and tactics. He must also participate in the recruitment and training of freedmen in depth, so as to truly become a commander of the Dionian Kingdom. After the banquet that night, in an open and frank conversation between Daves and him, he finally seriously expressed his willingness to make efforts in this regard.
