As soon as Cloto Catax’s voice fell, there was a loud noise in the venue. Both the Piriasi and the Black Laoshi realized with excitement that the Dionians did not deceive them. , Seems to be really ready to fulfill the promise made by the messenger before persuading them to come to Sparta.
So, a Piriasi representative stood up excitedly and asked first: "What do you need our Piriasi people to do?"
"Should we allocate the land of the Spartans to us?! And let us move into the city of Sparta?!" Another Piriasi representative asked immediately.
"Should we replace the Spartans, choose our own king, and let him lead us to govern the land of Ragnia?"
"What age is this, I still want to let the king rule!"
"Didn't Dionia who saved us a kingdom!"
……
Compared with the Beriasi people who were arguing fiercely, the Black Rollers who were also a little excited were more cautious. Under the influence of such a warm atmosphere, a representative of the Black Rollers finally stood up and hesitated. Asked: "My lord, you let us also occupy the land here... The original owners of these lands will be very angry, and they will retaliate fiercely!... They still have a lot of soldiers outside, and they still have them outside. Many allies, they will form a new army and come back again, by then we can just—"
"Idiot! Coward!" The representative of Beliasi who stood up first pointed at him and shouted, "Tell you the truth. I was called by the Spartans to go to Arcadia. , Fighting with the Dionian army led by the adults, Spartan's tens of thousands of troops were easily defeated. I escaped into the mountains and escaped the chase of the ferocious Dionian soldiers.
Afterwards, while escaping back to Sparta, I encountered a few Spartan defeated soldiers. From their mouths, I learned that the main force composed of Spartan fighters was surrounded and suffered heavy losses during the battle... So I turned Over the mountains, he did not go back to Sparta City directly, but sneaked back to the village quietly.
Until the envoy sent by you, my lord, I am the first to respond, because I have fought with the Spartans many times. I know very well that the Spartans have completely failed. They no longer have enough young men to fight. The great Dionian army fights, and it is even more impossible to retake your city! Therefore, I firmly believe that you have enough strength to carry out your promises, my lord, and we Piriasi people are also very happy to assist you in establishing a new city-state on the land of Lagnia.
As for these black Rolexes... they are used to being enslaved, they are very afraid of the Spartans in their bones, and even the name'Spartans' are afraid to say it. They really don't deserve to sit here. , I think it is better to let them continue to be slaves! "
His words finally aroused the anger of the representatives of Black Rolls. After finally seeing the hope of gaining freedom, how could they be willing to accept slavery again. This vision of the future finally allowed them to overcome their inner fears, and they began to scold the Spartans for their oppression and persecution, and at the same time criticized them. The Piriasi were the accomplices of the Spartans, and then they also humbly expressed their willingness to obey the command of Cloto Kataks and do their utmost to complete the various tasks assigned by him.
The venue has become extremely noisy, but Croto Kataks is happy because the enthusiasm of the Piriasi and the Black Laoshi has been mobilized.
He coughed a few times, then said loudly: "Please be quiet, everyone! Listen to me first!"
But the crowd did not stop making noise, until the soldiers who maintained the order of the venue intervened, they quieted down obediently.
Clotokatax turned his attention to the representative of Piriasi who helped him a lot, and asked interestedly: "What is your name?"
"Fernida!" the man straightened his chest and said loudly.
Klotokatax nodded, then looked at the others in the venue, took a deep breath, and said loudly, "As the conqueror of this land, I represent the Kingdom of Dionian , In the name of the sacred Hades, announce to you-from today onwards, both the Piriasi and the Black Laoshi will be free and become citizens of the new Sparta, possessing everything the city-state grants Right!
I invite you to rush back immediately and tell your compatriots that within four days, Piriasi and Black Rolls must each select 10 outstanding people. They will become new people under Dionia’s guidance. The parliamentarians of Sparta designated and promulgated new laws, redistributed land for citizens, and arranged new residences and villages...
I would also like to ask the Piriasi and the Black Laoshi to each select two highly respected individuals who will become ombudspersons to oversee any unjust behaviors of these new members in the implementation of these plans. And he sue us, let us punish..."
As soon as Cloto Catax’s voice fell, cheers broke out in the venue, especially many Black Rollers also shed tears, because at this moment they all realized: The Dionian commander did not It’s not just talking about it, he is really ready to let himself, who has been enslaved by the Spartans all his life, be free, become a citizen, and have land and rights. Those days when he was afraid of avoiding the hunting of young Spartans. Finally gone forever.
Just as the Piriasi people were talking about the candidates for the councillors, and the Black Rollers gratefully praised Dionia’s kindness, Cloto Kataks said again: "Please be quiet, I’m still Have something to say!"
This time, the venue quickly returned to silence.
"I have to remind you!" Cloto Catacs said with a serious expression: "I just said that whether it is Black Laoshi or Piriasi, they must be selected within 4 days. The 10 councillors and 2 ombudsmen cannot be more or less, otherwise they will be regarded as disrespecting Dionia's decision and will be disqualified from participating in the formation of the new Spartan government!"
Everyone who was originally very excited heard this, and they were dumbfounded.
The Black Rollers are better. Although most of them fled into the mountains, they are all concentrated and relatively close to Sparta City. Now they are all descending the mountain one after another, and they can complete the mission within 4 days.
But the Piriasi people are different. They have their own villages, and there are still a lot of them. They are all scattered in remote corners of Lagonia, such as the port of Ision near the promontory on the west and the promontory on the east. Minoa, the seaside town of Placière in the east and central part of the country...not only are they far apart, they often have to go over mountains and mountains. Within 4 days, each village can only choose their own candidates, but the number of people must add up to more than that. , But there is no time to gather them again and determine the final candidate.
"My lord, can you give us a few more days of grace?" Fernida pleaded with Cloto Kataks, and also told about their difficulties. Other Piriasi representatives also agreed. This time it was the Black Rollers' turn to gloat around.
Klotokatax, who was good to talk before, stood up and said in a firm tone: "Our Dionian army has other important things. It is impossible to stay here for too long. The formation of Sparta The Darsin government is a major event. It is related to the stability of Lagnia. There will be a lot of things to be done. Time is tight. 4 days is already ample enough and it is impossible to give you more time!"
Fenida and others are disappointed and are ready to continue begging.
Clotokatax took the opportunity to speak loudly: "I have a suggestion to solve your problem! You rushed back to your villages and told men over 18 to bring enough rations to Sparta. City, gather at the open-air venue where the Spartans held the citizens’ assembly and jointly select qualified candidates. This is fair and saves time. If you plan to do this, I will lend you horses so that you can catch up as soon as possible. Go back.
Black Rollers, you can also use this method to select the person who will govern Ragnia at the venue where the Spartans decide the important affairs of the city-state. It does not mean that you have become this piece. The new owner of the land! "
Clotokatax’s words first received a positive response from the black teachers, who agreed without hesitation to implement this sound-sounding suggestion.
The representatives of Piriasi hesitated, but under the influence of the Black Rollers, they finally agreed. After all, the distinguished and amiable Prince Dionia was here patiently. Show them a series of practical plans to govern Ragnia, it is impossible to hide a conspiracy in mind that wants to wipe out the Beriasi people.
After everyone made a decision, they eagerly wanted to leave and rushed back to inform their compatriots.
Only Fernida couldn't help but ask: "My lord, what do you do with those Spartans?"
Fenida's words made the people who were anxious to go out suddenly stopped.
Clotokatax said calmly: "If the Spartans agree with the plans I just mentioned, then they, like you, will be citizens of the new Spartan government. Work with you to govern this new country. But if they object—"
Klotokatax said in a heavy tone: "Then they can only spend their lives in the official camp of the Kingdom of Dionian! Don't worry, even if they live here with you in the future , It will not pose any threat to you, because among the Spartans captured by us, there are less than 400 young and middle-aged men. Even if the soldiers return one after another, they will not exceed 500. And the population of your two races That adds up to more than 10 times theirs. What's more, our army is here, so you don’t have to worry at all!"
