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

Dionia’s army captains, battalion captains, company captains, and detachment captains have made careful arrangements. At this moment, the Neto River has become lively and extraordinary. Nearly 60,000 Dionis have been waiting in line. Under the leadership of their respective team officers, the sub-soldiers began to run towards their target.

The crossing position of the First Army is close to the sea. As the captain of the First Company of the Fourth Battalion of the First Army, Leotizides led 200 company soldiers in neat rows according to the arrangement of the whole army. The column, waiting on the shore, stood in front of them with a three-layer paddle warship 30 meters long and six meters high.

"Hey, Proseus (the pseudonym that Leotizides took in Dionia), let's compare whose company is the first to reach the other side and form the formation!" One of the company's company captain Heterballus shouted.

Leotizides did not answer, the soldiers shouted: "The second company does not look at its own training level, but dare to compare with us!"

"Compared, who is afraid of who! But if you lose, you have to be punished as a frog jump!"

"Hey, what's going on! Let us not get on the boat, they have already started to leave!"

……

"Quite me all, stay focused!" Leotizides yelled, and the whole company immediately became quiet.

Leotizides’ company training is extremely demanding, and he is also rigorous and rigid. Soldiers who are not trained seriously will be punished lightly by corporal punishment, and severely beaten and scolded. Many citizens just joined their company, feeling unbearable, and asked to be transferred to other companies. However, in every legion contest, not only did the individual rank first in the team officers’ competitive and tactical contests, but his company was often in queues, offensive, defensive, battalion, siege, etc. The project was among the best in the competition, so there were many citizens who admired him and volunteered to join his company, and the soldiers respected and feared him.

"You can get on board!" the captain of the battleship shouted to the company on the shore.

"First team, second team upload!" Leotizides shouted immediately.

The forefront soldiers of the two units quickly put the ten-meter-long ladder on the ship’s side. After the hook at the top hooked the wooden fence, the soldiers quickly climbed onto the deck one by one, and soon there were two units with a hundred people. All of them boarded the warship, and the waterline of the warship sank one block. Fortunately, this was near the mouth of the sea, the river water was deep, and the companies were temporarily responsible for building a short, simple wharf.

The warship lifted the iron anchor, turned the rudder, and extended the oars. The huge hull began to slide southward, faster and faster. Even downstream, the width of the Neto River was no more than 80 meters. The warship quickly reached the opposite bank. After the soldiers disembarked, the warship returned at a faster speed.

In less than ten minutes, the entire company had completed the formation on the south bank of the Neto River.

At this moment, Leontizides smiled slightly, obviously satisfied with the soldiers' performance.

"Pixias!" he shouted.

"Yes!" The first team leader responded loudly.

"Go ask the second company, are they lined up?"

"Yes." When Pixias ran over, the company's soldiers laughed.

Soon, a shout came from the side: "Didn’t your company fail to agree! That's why we slowed down!"

"You are shameless!" The soldiers of the first company laughed louder.

Leotizides actually liked the lively atmosphere of cooperation and competition in the Dionian Army, allowing him to relive the cordial scene of fighting with other fighters in Sparta, and forget about it. The painful things that suffocated him in the past.

He looked forward, thinking: Captain Ktips should sound the company's bugle.

……………………………

On the north bank of the middle reaches of the Neto River, Daves stands on horseback high on the river bank, overlooking the thousands of soldiers on the river bank.

Led by the military flag, they stepped onto the pontoon in an orderly manner and marched toward the south bank.

I don’t know which team officer came up with the idea and made the company he led sang Hades carols loudly to overcome the soldiers’ fear of the swaying pontoon when they crossed the river, but they soon sang. It resounded throughout the river section, and each corps and company sang their own songs, as if whoever sings well and loudly in the competition is more effective...

Four "long dragons" on the four pontoons quickly marched towards the unknown south bank, with flags and singing...

Davos, who was looking down, was overwhelmed by this situation, and his face flushed: After years of hard work, the Dionian League has such a large army!

"Your Majesty, should we set off?" Capps reminded from the side.

"You can't wait?!" Davos smiled.

Daves arranged the spear brigade led by Capus to cross the river at the end. Although Capus knew that he must have a deep meaning, the soldiers saw that the other legions were crossing the river with a hula, so they were naturally impatient. The ground clamored to cross the river quickly. The newly formed team this time is not comparable to the orders and prohibitions of other legions, which shows that it is normal.

Daves didn't make Capps embarrassed, and turned around and said, "We've also crossed the river."

The guards suddenly cheered, surrounded by Daves, hundreds of riders stepped on the dust and mist, and rushed down the river bank...

………………………………

"My lord, the Cavalry of Dionia is coming here!" The scout rushed to the emergency report all the way.

When Dionysius, who was at the rear of the army and slowly marching towards Siriting, heard the news, he immediately lifted his spirits: "How many cavalry?"

"There are about 1,000 cavalry."

"No matter how many Dionia's cavalry came, I would die. I will lead them down and kill them all!" Axirita called out loudly.

"Don't worry." Dionysius was relieved and smiled: "Dionia crossed the river with so many cavalry at once, and his infantry must also be crossing the river. Axirita, if you do this When I led the cavalry to rush away, it would scare me back from the enemy who had only been able to lure me across the river."

"Then what should we Numibia do?" Axirita still didn't understand what Dionysius meant.

"Your cavalry continues to retreat!" Dionysius stared at Axirita, then at Gaba who was silent on the side, and gave clear instructions loudly until the two were unwilling. Nodded, he relaxed, and then said to the attendant: "Let the messenger rush to the front of the team and inform Faci Pesas to start returning!"

"Yes!"

………………………………

In the port of Laos, more than 6000 Dionian soldiers are getting on the ship one after another.

"Master Bagul, I have to wrong you to stay for a few more days about Laos." Silos said to Bagul who came to see him off.

"Don't worry." Baggul solemnly responded: "Although I am eager to join you on the battlefield and participate in battle, as a member of the Senate, I understand the importance of Laos to the alliance. I will Take care of the affairs here until someone from the Senate arrives to take over!"

Hiros also solemnly said: "Master Bagul, I also ask you to rest assured! Whether it is a Bruti soldier or a Lucanian soldier, I will treat it equally. When the war is over, I will try my best. Let them all go home safely!"

Bagule smiled heartily: "I will hand over the brothers to Sir Hiros. I am most relieved! I have warned them that they must strictly follow your orders. If there is any violation, please follow Punishment in the "Military Law"!"

"Thank you!" Silos expressed his sincere gratitude to Baggul.

At this moment, the messenger arrived: "My lord, the soldiers have already boarded the ship, please give instructions!"

Heros heard this and immediately looked towards the city with a hint of impatience on his face. He once again said to Baggul: "Your Majesty is anxiously waiting for our action. Yesterday has been delayed for a day. Tight! Lord Hernipolis hasn't come yet, I won't wait for him, you convey my apologies to him for me."

"Um... uh... wait a minute, he should be here soon..." Baggul persuaded with a strange expression, "Henipolis said... there is something very important to tell You."

"A very important thing?" Silos looked suspiciously at Baggul, who looked strange, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Well, wait for him—" Baggul was thinking about how to prevaricate, a clear voice came from behind him: "Master Shiros, you have been waiting for a long time!"

Bagule was relieved when he heard this.

Hiros widened his eyes because he was approached by Henipolis in uniform.

Do I need to wear armor to see off? Hiros remembered: Even when Laos was retaken and the army entered the city, the young consul still wore casual clothes.

Just when he was a little puzzled, Hernipolis came to him with 50 equally armed fighters: "Master Shiros, let's go!"

"Go? With you?" Shiros thought he had heard it wrong.

"When I left Turriy, His Majesty Daves promised me to be his clerk and participate in witnessing the war, and Laos, as the ally of Dionia, has the responsibility to participate in the next In the battle, so I am going to perform my duty now!" Henipolis said with a serious expression, but there was a little bit of delight in the words.

"You...but what about Raos?" When Raos was waiting to be happy, the archon actually left, which is why Silos felt incredible.

"Yesterday you and Baghul handled the city's affairs very well. I have already talked to Master Baghul and asked Eriandos to cooperate with him. There is no problem at all, right, Ba Lord Gula?" Hernipolis winked at Baggul.

Bagul shrugged helplessly in the face of Hiros's questioning gaze: "I can't help it. If I don't agree to Lord Hernipolis' request, I will not be able to summon so many ships."
