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

Although Olivers is not a veteran, he has an active personality and is good at making friends. During the time of Amendorara, he had a lot of contacts with Protsilus, and the two were fairly familiar. This time when the war was about to hit, the two met more cordially.

"Welcome, Chief Oliver! The arrival of you and the soldiers has made all the people in the city feel relieved!" Plotsilaus said sincerely.

"Master Protsilius, the Sixth Army was ordered to defend Crimea this time, and it has to rely on your full support to resist the hateful Syracuses!" Olivers was also sincere. Said.

"Fully supporting you to defend against Crimea is now the most important task for me and my subordinates. Tonight, I prepared a banquet for you at the mansion. We ate and talked while meeting the officials of Crimea... …" Seeing Oliver's gentle attitude, Protsilus felt relaxed. After all, it was the first time he had cooperated with the army.

"The banquet is unnecessary, because there are regulations in the military law, I can't violate it. However, I would like to discuss with you in detail how to defend Crimea..." Olivers said as he looked at Crimea in front of him city. It was the first time since the Second Crotone War that he came to this city on the southern border of Dionia. It seems that Scombras and Protsilaus have not been idle during their tenure in the past few years. The city walls have not only thickened, but also increased by at least two meters (in the beginning, it was mainly to prevent the Crotones). ).

"I have placed your camp on the square. The supplies of the Sixth Army should be provided by the Turrii Military Ministry, but the Crimea City Hall will try to provide you with some fresh meat and fish. Vegetables, vegetables... to improve your diet..." Plotsilus introduced Olivers to some preparations made by Crimea, while leading Olivers into the city.

Olivers listened carefully, and he could see that Plot Silaus had made sufficient preparations for the Sixth Army's garrison, and he was satisfied with it.

But just after the city gate, he heard a loud noise coming from ahead.

"These soldiers cannot be allowed to enter the city, they will only bring war! They will bring death!"

"Turiyi people get out! Crimesa people don't welcome you, get out!"

"You executioners, pay back the lives of our loved ones!"

……

Olivers heard this, his face changed suddenly, and he turned to question: "Master Protcilaus, what's going on?!"

Plotsilus' face also changed drastically, and he was about to explain.

At this time, the captain of the first brigade who entered the city hurriedly hurried over and said in a hurry, "Leoner Commander, there are many Crimean people blocking the street in front of us to stop us from entering the city!"

"These guys again!" Protcilaus looked annoyed, sighed, and said: "Before, the case of Pollux and the assassination of His Majesty involved a lot of Crimea. Some of the citizens have been severely punished by the Alliance. Since Syracuse invaded Greece and defeated the coalition forces in Siritim, in the past two days, the families of some citizens have protested in front of the city hall and demanded the release of their relatives... …But I didn’t expect… They dare to stop the army from entering the city!"

Compared with Plotsilaus’s worries, Olivers, who has been fighting for many years, is much more decisive and vigilant, and he loudly reminds Plotsilaus: "We should send troops to arrest these people immediately!"

"How can this work! They are all the people of Crimea!" Plotsilus shook his head repeatedly.

"At the moment when the alliance was facing a crisis, they even dared to prevent the army from entering the city. This is an act of treason and must be severely punished! And at this time, when this happens, I suspect that there must be an enemy instructing it! Crimei Sa is about to face the attack of Syracuse’s army. If such chaos still occurs in the city, it will bring disaster to us! So I suggest military control of Crimea city!"

"Military control?!" Teacher Plotsey looked at Olivers in surprise.

Olivers looked serious: "If we don't strictly control, and wait for the Syracuse army to arrive, these unsophisticated and hateful Crimesa people will probably open the gates of the city without our attention and welcome them in. , Let us all become slaves of Dionysius!"

These words reminded Protsilus of his tragic days when he was imprisoned by the Lucanians in Amendorara. He couldn't help but shivered, and then hesitated and said: "Okay... OK Yes, but I hope not to hurt the people of Crimea..."

After obtaining Protsilius’s consent, Olivers immediately issued an order, and the First Brigade quickly surrounded these troubled Crimesa, and detained them no matter how they were crying.

The Sixth Army was able to enter the city smoothly.

Soon, the city hall issued a notice: the implementation of military control over the city, the port and city gates are forbidden to enter and exit at will, and the residents outside the city are temporarily moved to the city to deal with the upcoming war.

…………………………………

The emergency on the northeast border of Dionia not only shocked the people of Amendorara, but also aroused the vigilance of the Turyians: the pace of war is approaching the core area of ​​Dionia, awakening them to The painful memory of the war that destroyed their homes a few years ago, now that there are more and more powerful enemies, Dionia seems to be able to defend but cannot fight back. Such a frustrated situation has caused the Dionia people to worry about them. While looking forward to the early return of Archon Daves, the "oracles" about Hades are increasingly taking root in the hearts of the people.

This night, Daves’ intelligence officer Alistairs’s residence in the East City (that is, near the wharf in the city, near the Dionian Arena area, which is a famous entertainment area in Turriy City) There was a rapid knock on the door.

The alert Aristilas got up before his slave rushed to open the door.

The person who came was Terratus. As soon as he saw Aristiras, he hurriedly said: "My lord, our people saw the elders of the Senate, Petalu, Kadürk, and In the evening, Bogam quietly took his entourage out of the city!"

Aris Tiras was surprised, and asked in a deep voice: "Did the city guard not stop it?"

"The sheriff Matonis went to Heraclea, and the other party was a veteran, and he went out from the east, west, and north gates respectively. It did not arouse much suspicion. There is no one from the city guard to support him, so how dare to stop him? !" Terratus said helplessly.

After Daves led the army to leave, as the war continued and intensified, Dionia's current political structure exposed many ills.

Although some people in the Senate proposed "to implement martial law in Tuliyi city during the war to prevent accidents", it was not approved because some people believed that this approach would interfere with the freedom of citizens too much. After all, the war was far from Tuli. Yi is still far away, there is no need to make the atmosphere so tense.

Although the Pollux case enabled Daves to give more powers to the inspectors to strengthen the management of the elders, and at the same time to conduct bottom-up supervision through the "establishment of guards", after all It has just begun to be implemented. Even if some elders have no real power, their status is very lofty. Once Daves is away, how can ordinary people dare to control them.

Aristilas didn’t think so much. The reason why he was nervous is because: After the assassination, Daves invested more money and manpower in the intelligence department he was in charge of, and demanded that Diony Various cities in Asia strengthened surveillance. After the war was discovered, he even asked his men to cooperate with city police officers to ensure the stability of the city and prevent accidents from happening.

The three Bruti veterans, Petaru, Kadulke, and Burgam, complained about some of Dionia's bills some time ago. They were involved in the Pollux case before and supported Pollux. Although nothing happened in the end, Alistairs paid close attention to them.

In the period after the outbreak of the war, the three of them met in private several times, which made Alistairs even more vigilant. Unfortunately, at a critical time, Tarantum’s sudden destruction of the alliance and invasion caused the horse Tonys’ departure caught Alistairs by surprise. After all, the intelligence department he led was only Daves’ private organization, without any public power, let alone preventing the lofty Daionian veteran from leaving...

Thinking of this, Aristilas further asked: "Are you sure they went to the Bruti area?"

The only trace of luck in his heart was quickly shattered by Tratus' words: "The people I sent saw with their own eyes they crossed the Bisignya wooden bridge."

But Tratus' next words made him feel a little relaxed: "But after they left the city, I immediately sent someone to ride to Bisignia City, once he confirmed Petaru's route. , Will immediately ride to Cosenza, go to inform Lord Shiros first."

Aristilas didn't care about the self-assertion of his capable subordinate. What he cared about was whether this long-distance report was successful. Although there are already avenues from Turri to Bisignia and then to Cosenza, riding a horse in the dark and running between the plateau and the mountains is definitely a dangerous move.

"Who is the person you sent?" Aristilas asked with concern.

"Adpigis."

"Oh, that clever fellow." Aristilas relaxed a little.

Adepiguis, who was once insulted as a "hybrid of Bruti and Greek", accompanied Anta Auris on his mission to Cosenza, and served as one of the guides to conquer with the Dionian Army After Bruti, his identity and the ability he demonstrated in these two operations allowed Aristiras to find him. In the following years, he was building a Bruti intelligence network, stifling signs of rebellion, and stabilizing cloth. The Ruti area and many other aspects have made great achievements, and Daves was promoted to the intelligence officer of the Bruti area.
