"Talantum..." Daves chuckled lightly. Obviously, this great eastern Greek state that had been annihilated by both the army and the navy was completely ignored by him, even though he was greedy with Tarantu. Land, but now is not the time: "I think... the attack on Tarantum should end here for the time being. Now Dionian’s main enemy is Syracuse. As long as it is resolved, all the problems will be solved. It's all solved."
"You are right." Triphias nodded and asked: "Then Metapontum--"
"I will leave the 7th Army here temporarily and go north to regain Metapontum tomorrow. If the Tarantum people are smarter, they should escape to their territory overnight..."
Daves is obviously confident in regaining Metapontum, and Triphias agrees with this. He immediately said: "Our Heraclea will also send troops to follow the Seventh Army, hoping to liberate as soon as possible. Metapontum occupied by Tarantum!"
Davers frowned slightly. He heard the deep meaning behind Triphias' words. It seemed that Triphias was worried that Dionia would not leave after he regained Metapontum. Daves glanced at him and asked faintly: "I heard that Tudpres was not killed in battle?"
"It seems so, but because Heraclea was also under siege at the time, he did not escape here. I think he will escape to the north?"
North? Galaguso! Daves thoughtfully, then he said sternly: "Anyway, we will find him as soon as possible and let him come back to preside over the overall situation of Metapontum, so that the war-torn city can resume prosperity as soon as possible! Dio Niah will do everything possible to help Heraclea and Metapontum to restore prosperity, because at the time of crisis, you chose to trust the Dionian Alliance, and Dionian should give back this precious trust!"
Triphias was ashamed of his careful thinking, and he was impressed by Davers's heart, and he sincerely thanked Davers again.
At this moment, the two corps commanders came from a distance together, and Davers hurriedly greeted them with a smile: "The hero who created this brilliant victory is here!"
"Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty Daves!"
The two immediately stood up and saluted. Daves also gave a military salute and loudly praised: "Amintas! Matonis! You two worked together to annihilate Tarantum's army and disarm Dionia. The soldiers in the north allow us to concentrate our efforts on the powerful enemies in the south! On behalf of the Dionian Senate, thank you both!"
Amintas smiled and said: "The main reason is your majesty, your planning, we can play so easily. To be honest, these Tarantums are too casual, I haven't tried hard. They surrendered..."
"Yes, the combat effectiveness of these Tarantums is not as good as that of the Tarantum reinforcements led by Achita. I knew it would be like this. I didn't have to wait for you to come. Two days ago It's time to attack them independently." Matonis said regretfully.
"Your kid became the commander of the army and became arrogant. With your inadequately equipped recruits, you dare to attack Tarantum's camp!" Amintas spurred on the spot.
"My new army is recruits, what's the matter! They dragged down the Tarantum army, which was twice as large as theirs, and defeated them!" Matonis retorted unconvinced.
Daves saw that the two were arguing, but he thought of it: As far as he knew, Tarantum suffered a great loss after the war with Mesapi, and faced Heraclia and Metapon. Toom’s rebellion, they were unwilling to learn from Dionia and granted a lot of free citizens citizenship, so that the soldiers of the city-state were replenished (Crotone also adopted a similar policy). However, the increase in the number of citizens did not strengthen the training. On the contrary, it lowered the military quality of the entire citizen soldier...
Daves stopped the two people from continuing to quarrel, and he said with satisfaction: "Martonis, I recommended you to be the commander of the 7th Army, you didn't let me misunderstand the person! You divided the troops in Tarantom Under the harsh conditions of harassing Amendorara, he could still control the army and couldn't bear it. This is the general's demeanor and created the conditions for us to encircle and annihilate the Tarantum army this time!..."
Martonis was praised by Davers, scratching his head a little embarrassedly, to get out of the embarrassment, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, in this battle, I also caught two big fish!"
"What big fish?" Daves could faintly guess what it was, but he still showed interest in cooperation.
"Brothers, bring them up!" Matonis waved his hand forward with great momentum.
For a moment, the soldiers pushed up two captives with their hands tied back.
"The two Archons of Tarantum, we haven't seen each other for a long time." Daves said half sarcastically, half sighing.
Diomilas lowered his head and said nothing.
Yumakas looked up at Davos and said sincerely: "Master Daves, I implore you to be kind to the Tarantums captured by you!"
"I will." Daves said faintly: "As long as the Tarantum Senate can pay the corresponding price."
Diomilas suddenly raised his head and shouted: "Daves, you ungrateful villain, don't forget how Tarantum selflessly helped the weak at the beginning!"
Daves’ eyes sharpened suddenly, and he said coldly: “Of course I did not forget, nor did the Dionians! So when Tarantum was hit by the Mesapi-Puchetti coalition At the time of the attack, Dionia had other military plans, but he did not hesitate to accept your request for help, immediately dispatched troops, repelled the Maple coalition forces, and saved Tarantum! But you did not hesitate to accept your request for help. I was not grateful for the blood and sacrifices of the Dionian citizens for this. In the following time, they provoked the Dionian people on the sea many times, sank our fishing boats, captured our fishermen, and even in Taran. Rumors that are unfavorable to the Dionian League spread in the city of Tum. I heard that you also sold my statue specifically for people to pee at home... These nasty tricks, for the sake of you helping us in the first place, Dai Oniya people can bear it, but—"
Daves’ eyes were like electricity, and he shouted sternly: “You shouldn’t do anything. When Dionia was invaded by foreign enemies and faced difficulties, Tarantom, as an alliance, broke the covenant. Become an accomplice of Dionia's enemies, lead an army, wield a shield and spear to kill allies who once fought alongside you!——"
"That's because you, as allies, broke the covenant first and poached out Metapontum and Heraclea, the two allies that once belonged to Tarantum!" Diomilas was not to be outdone. Roared.
"Believe it or not, our Heraclea has never had any secret contact with Dionia in advance. Joining the Alliance of Dionia is the will of all the citizens of Heraclea, because Tarantum We have always used Heraclea as a dog, and we don’t want to be a dog anymore. It’s as simple as that. I think Metapontum chose to leave the Tarantum League because of this..." Terry watching quietly Fias hurriedly came out to explain.
Diomilas stared at Triphias with canthus: "Do you think I would believe what a traitor said!"
Davers sneered: "Yes, there is no point in telling you this at this time. Dionia's principle is,'Treat your friends sincerely and treat your enemies fiercely.' Especially traitors, yes Never let it go easily! Given the situation of Tarantum at this time, even if I no longer send troops, I know what the Meishapi people who defeated the Tarantum army will do? Turiyi was once destroyed by fire, and the tower How will Rantum City be destroyed by a century-old enemy?! I am very interested..."
Diomelas and Umarcaston looked pale at the time.
Diomilas also stubbornly threatened: "Tarantum is...a sub-state of Sparta! Sparta will not allow Tarantum to be bullied by other city-states!"
"Sparta?!" Daves snorted without blinking his eyelids: "Do you think Sparta has enough power to help Tarantum now! It happened on the Peloponnese Peninsula? I heard that the Spartans’ war has been enough to cause headaches for the Spartans. They also asked Syracuse for assistance..."
"Davers, don't be proud! The army of Syracuse is coming! I am also looking forward to...I look forward to the day when Turri is destroyed again!" Shouted.
"You can’t see that day. As long as I’m here, Syracuse’s army will not be able to enter Dionian’s territory. There will be more losses!" Daves said confidently, and with a wave of his hand, several soldiers stepped forward and framed the two.
Yomakas unwillingly pleaded: "Master Daves, Tarantum did make a mistake this time! But please think about Achita! Think of Achita!--"
"Shut up, Umarcus! You are embarrassing Tarantum!"
"You should just shut up, **** greasy war mad (the Diomilas family produces olive oil)! If it weren't for you, how could Tarantum have fallen to where it is today!..."
The quarrel between the two gradually became silent as the soldiers moved away...
………………………………
In the Chinese army's tent in the Siracusa camp, Dionysius is discussing the upcoming siege with the generals.
In the morning, the Clippers sent back by the Syracuse Navy told Dionysius an amazing news: Dionian’s Archon Daves returned to Turíy and was also taken by Dionian. The people elected to be the king!
Daves repelled the Samonais who had more than 40,000 fierce warriors so quickly? ! Diolithius was shocked, and once again felt the urgency of time: Syracuse must capture Crotone as soon as possible before Davos leads the main force to come to the rescue, in order to take the initiative of the entire battle, so this is the reason. An urgent meeting.
