Since Daves is not in the Senate, Kerry Thorpes and the others do not need to enter the city and go directly north to the barracks.

When passing the second Arc de Triomphe outside the North City, Kerry Thorpes stood under the door and looked up for a while before leaving.

Turiyi’s barracks is located on the northern bank of the confluence of the Koseni and Delos rivers. The Turiyi military camp at this time is no longer a simple camp with tents and fences when Turiyi City was first built, but a fully-functional fortress.

The deer village, the moat, the earth fort, the wooden wall and the guard towers erected every 20 meters on the wooden wall constitute the outer defense of the barracks, and the camp is a row of brick barracks, each of which can accommodate In the accommodation of a small group of soldiers, the beds are made into upper and lower bunks, so the room is relatively spacious.

In addition, there are stables for cavalry, armory, weapons repair workshops, kitchens, small hospitals, and even waterwheels, which lead the Delos River to the bathing room of the barracks (only cold water for soldiers).

Of course, there is also the most important and indispensable part of the military camp: the command headquarters, which is composed of the lodging of the highest commander, the lodging of senior generals, and meeting rooms; the training field has a light infantry training field, a heavy infantry training field, Cavalry training field, weapon test field (mainly assembly test of large siege equipment), large training field (arms training, formation confrontation, and review troops are all here); in addition, there are several special training fields for urban defense training Field (that is, training camp building, defense and siege, the land of this field is often dug and supplemented, supplemented and dug, and it is full of barbarians). The training field on both sides of the Delos River (that is, training for wading and crossing the river, As well as landing operations by ship, it is also equipped with a dozen small cargo ships), mountain training ground (training mountain operations, this training ground is not in the barracks, but in the mountains west of the barracks, across the hot spring baths).

For Dionia, who was founded by military force, the military camps built near the cities in the alliance are the camps with the most complete functions and the most advanced training methods among the Mediterranean countries, city-states, and various ethnic groups in this era, especially Tuli. The Iraqi military barracks, as the center of the alliance, Turrii has the largest number of civic soldiers. Therefore, the military barracks must train 5,000 people at a time, which can fully accommodate 50,000 troops. There are 500 soldiers stationed in rotation throughout the year, which does not include them. Some union officials.

Because of the existence of these military camps, countless farmers, herders, fishermen, merchants, etc., who have no war experience and have no war experience, will enter the military camp again and again. After one or two years of rigorous training, he was quickly forged into a qualified legionnaire. This made the Fifth Corps, which had never been on the real battlefield, been in the fight against the elite soldiers of Syracuse who had been fighting all the year round. .

At this moment, Kerry Thorpes saw the ten-meter-high wooden wall extending infinitely to both sides without seeing the head. You can imagine the scale of this barracks.

This is obviously a city! He couldn't help but asked in amazement: "This is your barracks?!"

"Yes, this is Turrii Military Camp. Citizens of Turri, Amendorara, and Bisignia usually receive training here." The official replied.

Greethorpes once again looked up at the sentry patrolling on the wooden wall and the archer looking far away from the tower. This heavily guarded barracks made him feel a little uneasy: "Let's go in."

Then, the official stopped and turned to Grithorpes and his entourage and said solemnly: "Since we are now in the war, the military secrets in this barracks cannot be leaked, Your Majesty Daves It is required that you must wear a mask and blindfold before entering the barracks." As he said, he took out a black mask from his arms.

At the same time, the suspension bridge of the camp was lowered, the camp door opened, and a group of heavily armed soldiers lined up.

The followers of Kerry Thorpes have already exploded: "Dionians, do you know what you are talking about?!"

"You made us blindfolded! Wherever we Spartans go on missions, the consuls and generals of the city-states have always come out to welcome us respectfully. This is a humiliation to us Spartans!"

"Dionians, aren't you afraid to arouse the anger of our Spartans by doing this?!"

Faced with the accusation of the Spartan envoy, the Dionian official was not afraid, and sneered: "A few years ago, a Spartan envoy threatened us Dionian with the same words and was driven out by us. Turriy. If you are unwilling to implement our requirements, then we have to regretfully ask you to leave Turriy."

The entourage quieted down suddenly. They knew that the person the official was talking about was Phoebe Das. After returning to Sparta from Turei, this guy became a joke among the Spartan population for a long time. , They didn't want to be like this, so they all looked at Kerry Thorpes.

This is a demonstration by Dionia! Kerry Thorpes sighed inwardly.

Kerithorpes is not Phoebe Das. He is one of the few Spartans who truly possesses diplomatic qualities. Therefore, the Council of Elders will entrust him with the mission of ambassador to Great Greece. At this moment, seeing that the situation is not good, he took a deep breath, his eyes slammed into the Dionia official like substance, and said in a deep voice: "I accept your request, but I hope to see your king soon!"

………………………………

Five years later, Kelithorpes once again saw Daves in the meeting room of the Turíy Barracks. The 24-year-old young man is now the King of Dionia. He is sitting In the middle of the room, except for a circle of stubble in the lower jaw, his appearance has hardly changed, but the impression given to Kerry Thorpes is completely different from when he was parting.

After Kerry Thorpes came in, Daves sat quietly, watching him solemnly, and a majestic aura radiated from the young king, like a steep mountain slowly The pilgrim Rethorpes pressed.

It seems that this is a formal meeting. Daves is not going to talk about personal friendship with him, because there are other people sitting on both sides of Daves.

This made Kerrythorpes, who had just taken off his mask, to speak first, to break the silence that made him feel depressed: "The Spartan messenger Kerrythorpes, on the order of the Council of Elders, is on an envoy. Dionia, I hope to receive the respect and hospitality he deserves."

On the left hand side of Davos is Kunogolata. He said solemnly: "As the leader of Greece, Sparta should have maintained the peace between the Greek city-states. However, you rely on being strong and bullying the weak. , Provoking war everywhere, such a city-state is not worthy of Dionia’s respect!"

Although Kerry Thorpes was upset before, he did not expect that Dionia's attitude towards Sparta would be so bad. Although he was unhappy in his heart, fortunately, he has traveled to other cities many times and has rich experience. , Quickly replied: "In the conflict of interests between the city-states, who is right and who is wrong, and who can say clearly. Not to mention that it happened in the Eastern Mediterranean and has nothing to do with Great Greece."

Scombras, a white-haired old man on the right of Daves, stood up and accused: "We don’t want to care about your local Greek affairs. But Sparta got involved in our war with Syracuse. Assist the abominable Syracuses, trample our land, and slaughter our people. That is our enemy! We have no respect for the enemy, only anger!"

Did they know? ! Kerry Thorpes looked at Daves ahead.

Davos looked stern and stared at him sharply.

Kelithorpes defended calmly: "Although we Sparta and Syracuse have a covenant, Sparta has never intervened in the affairs of the Western Mediterranean, and has never sent troops into the Western Mediterranean. Sparta is not hostile to Dionia!..."

"Phoebe Das." Daves said the name that Gleethorpes was afraid to hear. He said in a cold tone, "Spartan general, excellent The brother of Damidas, who had been on a mission to Dionia, has now appeared in the army of Syracuse, and commanded the right wing of the army of Syracuse in the battle with the Southern Italy Alliance. You Don't tell me, this is his unauthorized action or he has been exiled by Sparta. As far as I know, he led his army to fight in Corinth a few months ago."

Davos' words blocked the possibility of Crythorpes's sophistry one by one, and Glythorpes was surprised how Dionia had such detailed information about Phoebedas. At this moment, he has no more hesitations and worries. He simply turned to the subject and said straightforwardly: "I am here this time for peace in Great Greece. Sparta hopes that Dionia and Syracuse can stop the war. , Sign a peace agreement so that the Greeks can rebuild their homes!"

"Am I wrong?! Sparta actually started to care about our Great Greece!" Skombras's mockery made Kerry Thorpes unheard of, his eyes fixed on Dave. S.

"Dionysius has agreed?" Daves did not appear surprised, but asked rhetorically.

"I'll come to Turey first, and after consulting your opinions, I'll go to Siritting." Kerry Thorpes replied.

"What kind of armistice conditions?" Kunogolata interjected.

Kerithorpes carefully stated the plan he had considered along the way: "Although Dionia won a naval battle, you must admit that Syracuse has already occupied a lot of Greece. Big advantage, they have already conquered other city-states in Great Greece, and now they are about to enter your territory, and your Dionia is still unstable...so my suggestion is—"

Kerry Thorpes looked at Daves and said seriously: "The two sides have implemented a truce on their current positions."

Kerry Thorpes finished speaking, and the meeting hall was completely silent. He immediately added: "Of course you can also kick out your truce conditions. Sparta will be responsible for the coordination."
