There was a glimmer of hope in everyone's dim eyes.
However, Agassilaus sighed secretly in his heart: Even if they finally recapture Sparta, those Piriasis and Black Laoss who have tasted the sweetness will be willing to accept their rule again. NS?

In the evening, Davers dragged his tired body back to his mansion.
Dinner was the busiest time for the Daves family, but Daves didn't speak much today. Even though Eunice took the initiative to provoked the subject of her father several times, his answer seemed perfunctory.
After the meal, Daves called Christia and Agnes to the master bedroom on the second floor.
"Your Majesty, did something happen to Croto?!" It's rare for Christia to see Davers showing such an ugly look, plus she has been worrying about Cloto who is out on the expedition these days. Tokatax, therefore, was deeply disturbed in his heart.
Davers sighed: "It's not Croto, it's Adoris... he has gone to Elysee..."
The first sentence made Kristia breathe a sigh of relief, and the latter sentence made her worry again: "Adoris?! How could it?! He has always been so reassuring, and his body is so strong, he has already Become the captain...how-"
Davers sighed again, and said in a heavy tone: "Crotto led his army in a decisive battle with the main Spartan army. The Spartans attacked fiercely, and the group led by Adoris was attacked. The point is that he eventually suffered multiple battle wounds..."
Christoya looked dumbfounded for a moment, and suddenly cursed: "What is Croto doing! As the army commander, why didn't he take care of his brother? Had he forgotten all these years? How did Adoris care about taking care of him!——"
"Sister!" After all, Agnes came in late, and coupled with her indifferent personality, she did not have deep feelings for Adoris, so she could keep calm when she heard the news, and she sat down to Kristia By her side, she held her trembling hand tightly, and softly comforted: "Crotto and Adoris have a deep friendship. It is impossible not to take care of his brother. This is probably an...accident, right?"
Davos nodded and whispered: "The King Agsilius of Sparta is a cunning opponent. He formulated a sinister battle plan that once caused the First Army to fall into chaos and almost caused us. The army was defeated in the entire battle. Fortunately, Croto dealt with it properly and finally won the battle... The entire brigade led by Adoris was almost completely destroyed. This is the biggest loss of this battle!"
"But...how should I face Cynthia, face Aiduy and the child!" Kristonia shed tears, sobbing and saying, "Since Adoris went out independently, I haven't had much trouble. Caring for him, I am not a good mother..."
Davers lightly pressed his wife’s shoulder, and said emotionally: "No, you have always been Adoris’s good mother, and you have carefully raised him...but it’s me, I have never been sincere. He accepted him as his child and treated him too harshly. Now that I think about it... I really regret it!"
Christoia looked at her husband with tears in her eyes, wiped her tears, and comforted her: "Your Majesty, you don't have to blame yourself, teaching children is our woman's business, your affairs are so busy..."
Kristia’s words did not relieve Daves’ guilt. He shook his head, stood up, and said: "Agnes, you are here to accompany Kristia, I Go out for a walk."
"It's so late, where are you going?" Agnes asked with concern.
"Stand on the cliff and look at the Craty River."
Davers is really standing on a hill, overlooking the Craty River in the evening. He still remembered that when he moved to this hill ten years ago, it was dark at night, and the surface of the river where vortexes appeared constantly reflected the moonlight, which looked very deep, and the sound of rumbling waves from upstream always gave people a kind of Feeling of palpitations.
Now, not only are the lights on both sides of the Craty River gleaming like stars in the sky, but the lights in the river are also connected into pieces, shaking the surface of the river, which are the ships entering the river port under the guidance of the lighthouse, and some The restaurant on the river made by the Dionian businessman deliberately made a customized cruise ship... The bustle and hustle and bustle replaced the desolation and loneliness of the past. This is the result that Davers has created with the efforts of these decades, and it is also his attitude to the world. Change.
Thinking of this, a feeling of pride rose from the bottom of my heart, dispelling Davers's original guilt.

The news of "Dionian army conquering Sparta" quickly spread throughout Greece, which shocked many city-states and at the same time prompted some city-states to speed up their joint resistance.
Because the Corinthians were active participants in the war between Dionian and Sparta, they were even attacked by the Dionian fleet against merchant ships in the port, so the enraged Corinth was the first to join the anti-Dionis One of the city-states of the Asian Alliance, it is now very likely to be the next target to be attacked by the Dionian army.
The anxious Corinthians are making emergency military mobilizations while asking for help from their allies.
Argos has been hesitant during this war. In addition to not wanting to help his mortal enemy Sparta, another important reason is that the Dionian envoy Carrias once proposed to the Argos Council, "As long as They support Dionia. After the war, Dionia will take the Taitia (not the Taitia in Arcadia, but in the Spartan territory) that they had captured by Sparta a hundred years ago. A small town in the northeast corner adjacent to the territory of Argos) is returned to Argos."
The Argoss were tempted, but soon shook again under the persuasion of the able-spoken Athenian envoys. Later, as a close neighbor of Sparta, the Argos discovered that the Dionians had occupied Sparta and completely abolished Sparta’s original regime and changed both the Piriasi and the Black Laos. Become a new citizen of Sparta...Sparta has not changed except that piece of land, everything else has changed.
This made Argos, who is also an oligarch, feel terrified. They finally decided to join the anti-Dionian coalition, strengthening the border defense while strengthening the friendly ally Corinth.
The Athenians were already conducting military mobilization. After learning that the Dionian army had completely occupied Sparta, the Athens Council felt even more urgent and repeatedly urged its overseas allies and sub-states to send reinforcements and troops to Athens as soon as possible. Materials, because the generals such as Callistratus knew: Under the conditions of the fall of Sparta and the strong performance of Dionia, if Athens does not come forward and raise their arms, many city-states that are not determined Probably all fell to Dioria.
As a result, Athens quickly formed an army of 10,000, led by Efetrax, and went all the way to support Corinth with great fanfare.
Thebes and his allies strengthened their determination to remain neutral after learning that Dionia had captured Sparta. The city-states of Phokis and Locris to the west were influenced by the priests of Delphi and actively responded to the call of Athens. A total of 6,000 soldiers were sent to join the Athenian army.
Sparta was completely defeated, and Pisa did not have strong support. Even without the previous promise, it was inevitable that it would eventually depend on Ellis in the same area. Ellis who had shown hostility to Dionia before Instead, he began to hesitate, because after Messenia and Sparta were occupied by Dionian, the Arcadian Alliance became the alliance of Dionian again, and it was located in the northwestern corner of the Peloponnesian Peninsula. Ellis was already completely surrounded by Dionia and its allies, so when other city-states that joined the anti-Dionia alliance were actively acting, it was a little dead.
After the Dionian army donated Tygoa to Mandinia, the other city-states of the Arcadian Alliance hoped that Mandynia would return the territory of Tygoa, and worked with them to persuade Dio The Nya Army spared the captured Taigeya people and allowed them to return to their homeland.
How did the Mandinians vomit the fat they swallowed in their mouths? In the face of the surging public opinion, Lu Comides, who initially expressed his opposition, finally changed his course and defended Mandinia's interests.
The two sides have been arguing, and some city-states even threatened to "leave the alliance". At this moment, the news came that "the Dionian army occupied the whole territory of Sparta", and the Arcadian alliance was very quarrel Almost stopped, and quickly reached an agreement: send an envoy to Sparta to congratulate the allied state Dionia and understand its handling of Sparta.
In Thessaly, North Greece, Jason declared in Fasalus: As a member of the Greek city-states, the Thessari will never sit back and watch the aliens invade the land of Greece and bully their fellow Greeks! He, Targus of Thessaly, will lead all the warriors of Thessaly, drive away the invaders, and help the compatriots in the south to take home the garden! "
After he issued a military mobilization, the races in the city-states and surrounding mountainous areas in Thessaly sent troops to gather in Fasalus...

In the territory of Persia, the entire western Asia Minor (now Anatolia region of Turkey) is divided into multiple regions. Phrygia is one of them. It emerged as a kingdom hundreds of years ago. The influence and territory in Asia Minor are enough to contend with the Heti Empire. Even though it has become a part of Persian territory, it still retains its unique culture and some special rights.
Now Phrygia is completely located in the center of the western part of Asia Minor and does not rely on the sea at all. However, during the period of Phrygia’s governor, Fauna Bazos relied on his prestige to rent the seashore in the Pisidia area to the south. The town of Aspendos was the port of Virginia, and its naval port was also located in it. Today, Timothy is the commander-in-chief of the fleet in this naval port.
