But Agsilius has remained silent ever since he learned of this.

Some people proposed to replace the messenger and send relatives familiar to Leotichides to take up the post. Some people who knew the situation at the time expressed opposition, thinking that this would only be counterproductive.

The two sides have been arguing and unable to reach a consensus, so they have to temporarily turn to another topic: discussing the crime of Dolios retreating without a fight and giving up Messenia.

At this time, Agsilius spoke, and he supported Dorios, so that in the end Dorios was only deprived of the right to public meals and reduced to inferior people.

On the way home, I saw the people greeting him again, but Agsilius felt differently in his heart.

When he returned home, he was alone in a room, pondered for a long time, and finally made a decision.

…………………………………………

In Messenia, under the leadership of team officers and engineers, the soldiers of the Dionian regiments are busy every day: building the city of Messenia, building a simple wharf, building an important defensive camp...

The black ladies of this land were quickly organized by the village heads of various villages and took turns to the Dionian barracks. These Messenian Dionian citizens headed by Tisias served for them. Register and officially declare them as citizens of the new city-state in the name of the Holy Kingdom of Dionian and New Messania, and at the same time allocate land for them, and also briefly explain to them the political system and laws of New Messania ...

These Black Rollers, who have been used as cattle and sheep by the Spartans since childhood, are ignorant, but they know one thing very well: they are free! They became the masters of this land!

Being in darkness all the year round and seeing the light suddenly, the gratitude of the Black Lao Shi to the Dionians is beyond reinforce. At the same time, under the reminder of Tisias and others, they would never want the happiness they had just acquired to be seized by the Spartans in a blink of an eye, so they all glowed with infinite energy. They actively participated in the construction of Mesenyi City and other facilities, and in addition to heavy labor, they also participated in military training organized by Dionian soldiers. In the evening, when they returned home, they were almost exhausted. Exhausted, but few people complain and complain...

Black Laoshi’s spirit of selflessness has also infected the Dionian soldiers, so the entire Messenia is full of vitality.

Only Leotichides is getting more and more depressed. Not only does he have to give detailed explanations to the various army commanders, senior team officers, and even Sekerian who have been inquiring about The rumors of "He is the Prince of Sparta" have spread throughout the Dionian army. Whether he is wandering in the camp or out for inspection, he is faced with the strange eyes of the soldiers. He learned from his son. The most commented sentence from the soldiers behind the scenes was "Since Lord Proseus is the prince of Spartans, will he lead us to fight the Spartans with all their strength and eliminate them?"

Leotichides knew in his heart: The whole army is still in order, because of the deterrence of military law and the influence of his impressive record, but if this continues, it will inevitably affect his influence on the army. Take control, leading to a decline in combat effectiveness.

But in a short period of time, he was unable to show his determination to the soldiers. At this time, he was really helpless and regretted that he was too big before, so he simply stayed behind closed doors and stayed in the big tent. Stay.

"Your Excellency Commander, there is a small boat coming from the east, saying that it is a messenger sent by Sparta, asking to see you." Staff Officer Mukru went into the big tent and reported to him.

The Spartan messenger...Leotichides thought this was a good opportunity: "Bring him here! Inform several legion leaders and the three legion leaders to discuss matters in the big tent! Uh, there are military judges!"

Mukru, who has been a partner of Leotichides for many years, guessed what he wanted to do, and immediately replied: "Okay!"

Leotichides is the commander in charge of several legions. According to the "Dionian Military Law", his military account must be spacious enough for military meetings, so a staff officer, a staff The military judges, two corps commanders, and twenty-four brigade commanders stood together in the military tent. There was still a passage in the middle, and it didn't appear to be too crowded.

"Report, bring the Spartan messenger!"

"Let him in." Leotichides sat straight, his face cold.

The generals on both sides also stood up straight, but there was a hint of curiosity on their serious faces.

The tent opened, and a gray-haired old man walked in. Not only was he slightly crouched, his body was very thin, but he was also limping when he walked...

The generals were all surprised: Sparta sent a disabled old man as a messenger. What does this mean?

Only Leotichides, who was sitting in the middle, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the person who walked in.

The Spartan messenger held a wooden staff and stared straight at Leotichides, staggering unconsciously, until he was stopped by the guards, and he suddenly came back to his senses. Said sadly: "Dolios did not admit his mistake, you are indeed my nephew Leotichides..."

As soon as he said this, the surrounding generals were suddenly surprised. Based on the age and appearance of the messenger, some people quickly came up with an incredible answer in their hearts.

"You are...Spartan King Agsilius?!" Olivers couldn't help but asked aloud.

There was a commotion in the military tent. The people present were almost all senior Dionian officers. They came to the Greek mainland to fight against Sparta. According to the past practice, naturally they would look through the information in the military camp in advance to strengthen the fight against Sparta. Bada’s understanding in order to know oneself and the enemy, and the most mentioned figure in Spartan’s materials is Agcilius. The king of Sparta has played against Persia and others during his decades of warfare. The Greek city-states have achieved impressive results and are prominent in the Eastern Mediterranean.

At this time, in the eyes of everyone, he was just a frail old man. He couldn't see the temperament of a Spartan warrior at all. No wonder some Greeks who were hostile to him called him "the least Spartan King Bada", but he dared to come alone, his courage is really admirable!

Mukru looked towards Leotichides subconsciously, and saw the Dionia commander’s right elbow propped on the tabletop, his left hand was on his thigh, his body was leaning forward, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and his eyes were full of coldness. .

Although Agsilius' appearance has changed a lot at this time, Leotichides recognized him at a glance. At that moment, a anger hit his forehead, and he couldn't help but want to lunge. Going up and stabbing him down, so that decades of resentment can be calmed down, but the cold temperament that he has cultivated over the years and his identity at this time suppressed the impulse in his heart and kept him a little calm. He sighed slightly and fell. Want to see how this coward, who rarely goes to battle to kill the enemy himself, actually ventures here, what tricks does he want to play?

Agsilius ignored the enquiry of the person next to him. He saw that the person in front of him was gloomy and silent, and his expression gradually became a little sad: "I know you must hate me very much these years, thinking that I took you away. The throne of... After your father passed away, I really longed to be the king of Sparta... I am a little like you. We have been discriminated against by the people since we were young, so we are always eager to make a deed to prove ourselves. You broke the tradition of the royal family and participated in the training of Aggo, and because of my body—"

Agsilius patted his stump, and said a bit more frankly: "It is impossible to win honor through battle like a normal Spartan citizen, so I am more eager to become a king. Command the army to win... At that time, the situation of Sparta in Greece was not very good. I confidently believed that I was better able to bring Sparta out of the predicament than the young and energetic, so... hey!"

Agsilius sighed from the bottom of his heart, and his eyes became a bit lonely: "But Sparta is in a worse situation today than it was then. It can be seen that I haven't done well these years. Maybe I really did. Wrong, I shouldn’t compete with you for the throne......"

Leotichides stared at the sincerely speaking king of Sparta. The aggressive, self-confident and arrogant image in his mind has now become old-fashioned and depressed. He loosened his fist and then Re-squeezed, and squeezed out a cold tone: "You forced my mother to death."

Agsilius did not evade his nephew’s gaze of hatred like a blade. He said frankly and painfully: "In order to become a king, I used some despicable means, but I never expected that I would kill you. Mother, I also forced you away... These years, whenever I think about this, I feel a little uncomfortable. Perhaps Sparta will fall to where it is today. It is Zeus who is punishing me for my sins!"

Agsilius said, his whole body slowly squatted down, his right hand was strongly propped on the wooden staff, his healthy right leg was bent, his left leg was dragged behind, and he actually knelt on the ground.

Everyone was shocked: The dignified King of Sparta actually kneeled in public!

Leotichides was equally surprised, but his stubborn expression effectively concealed the emotions in his heart.

And the following words of Leag Silus are even more surprising: "If killing me can eliminate the anger in your heart, I am willing to die under your sword! I only hope that my death can prevent you from No longer resent the Ajidai family who gave birth to you and raised you! No longer resent the Spartan people who are like you with the blood of Hercules! Think about the towering Taigotos mountains and the galloping Urotas river , The ancient Temple of Artenis, the arduous training of Aggo... That beautiful land was created by the great gods, and we Spartans were guided by the gods. We lived there for hundreds of years, even if we had One day will be destroyed, and it shouldn’t be executed by you-a pure Spartan royal family, because when you get old one day and think about the past, you may feel pain and regret like me—"
