"Come on, Sir Hiros, or it will take time again!" Hernipolis urged triumphantly, and walked quickly toward the trestle with the guards.

Hiros had to accept the fact that Hernipolis was on the march with the army, and once again solemnly saluted Bagul: "Laos will be handed over to you."

The somewhat guilty Baggul also solemnly responded: "Don't worry, may Hades protect you in the south to break the enemy and siege the city!"

……………………………

As soon as Daves crossed the Neto River, he was rewarded by Herald Tolmeide: "Your Majesty, there is a group of Syracuse scouts ahead, and our cavalry is pursuing them."

"Lyders' cavalry regiment has been scattered a long time ago. Why didn't I find it, and let them break in front of our army." Daves's calm tone was with majesty.

The kind Tormid explained hurriedly: "It is reported that these enemy riders were hiding behind the ruins of the ruins of the inner city of Crotone before they were discovered. Now Rydes has reorganized his troops and prepared to go. Thoroughly explore the ruins of the inner city of Crotone."

"Dionysius is very careful to find out the movements of our army!" Daves mocked. He sat high on the horse, looking forward, and his vision was full of teams forming small squares. The Dionian soldiers in the formation began to look serious: "I'm afraid my worst assumption is becoming a reality...Tormid!"

"Here!"

"Tell all legionaries to wear their weapons and equipment and march south at normal speed! Tell Leides not to disperse his cavalry to explore the inner city of Crotone. I want his cavalry to follow Syracuse. The army, always report the enemy’s movements, and at the same time give me every effort to cover the movements of our army! Let the Mountain Reconnaissance Brigade do the investigation of the inner city of Crotone."

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Tolmid asked softly again: "I need to inform the Crotone in the Acropolis, have we crossed the river?"

Davos pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "You send someone to tell Lycias...well, just say that we are leading an army to rescue them. There may be a fierce battle with the Siracusa army, let They try their best to send troops to meet up!"

"Understood, Your Majesty!" Tolmid immediately turned to give orders to the messengers.

"My lord, my men are back." Axirita rushed to Dionysius on horseback: "Ten people were sent out, only two came back, and their whole bodies were injured, although they rode The technique is superb, but you have to pass through the enclosure of so many enemy riders——"

"I see, you have done a good job, and there will be no less rewards!" Dionysius interrupted his complaint impatiently: "Tell me, how is the situation?"

"The army of Dionians has crossed the river. There are a lot of people..." The Numibians are much less civilized than Carthage and Greece. After the number is over 10,000, most of them are not clear. NS.

Dionysius listened to Axirita's exaggerated words, his original worries disappeared, and a smile appeared on his face. Talking about retreating because the rear was attacked is an illusion to lure the enemy to cross the river. He has only one purpose in his mind-to defeat the army of Dionia, and only by achieving this goal can he completely get rid of the army of Syracuse. The dilemma, Dionysius was very clear from beginning to end.

His gaze swept to Phoebe Das next to him, and Phoebe Das nodded vigorously at him.

Dionysius resolutely ordered: "Order the entire army to stop advancing, turn around immediately, cross the Tachnadi River, and march north quickly!"

At this moment, his army has passed the southern bank of the Tacinadi River. The whole army is about ten miles away from the Neto River. It takes more than two hours to reach the normal march, so he must move quickly to avoid the enemy's detection. After being fooled, he fled back to the north bank of the Neto River. However, if an army of tens of thousands of people wants to get through Neto and the time required should be more than a few hours, he has enough time...

Towards noon, the fleet entered the port of Knapetia.

The port of Krapetia is not large. Although it was expanded by the two chief executives after it was merged into the Dionian League, the port’s inherent conditions were not good and its capacity to accommodate ships was not very obvious. As a result, the troop carriers can only queue up slowly to enter the port one by one...

"Master Hiros, welcome you! I haven't seen you for more than two years. I heard that you are coming this time. I will be waiting for you at the dock early!"

Asisters gave Hiros who had just disembarked a warm hug, and then said: "Your Majesty is really cruel. Either let me stay in Lucania for the past few years, or send me there. This remote area of ​​Bruti does not give me any free time to gather together with you old brothers. The last time you were appointed as the chief executive of Cosenza, I wanted to go to Cosenza. To congratulate you, I didn’t expect the war to break out so soon..."

Asistes talked excitedly as soon as he came up, and Silos only replied: "Your Majesty is also for your good."

"Of course, your Majesty treats me like a brother. I complain a few words, and he won't blame me." Ahistes joked brazenly.

"Master Asistes, hello!" Hernipolis stepped forward to see him.

When Henipolis went to Turiy to study, Asistes had already gone to Nyutum. He only met Henipolis every time he went back to Turiy to report to Daves. Several times, but he has a deep memory of the only boy who borrowed to live in Davers's mansion.

"Master Hernipolis, it's nice to meet you!" Assistus immediately responded enthusiastically, and then he remembered something, and his face was puzzled: "You can come here, it means that Raos has received Come back, shouldn't you rectify the affairs of the city-state that has just gone through the war in Laos?!"

This is actually a taste for lessons, but Henipolis didn't care. He said frankly: "Master Bagul is sitting in the city of Laos now, and he is doing very well. And I have to fulfill the promise I promised to your Majesty and serve as his army clerk, so I came with Lord Shiros. I heard that Lord Assistus was the first clerk of His Majesty, and I would like to ask you for advice. , Give me more experience on how to be your majesty’s clerk."

Asisters laughed, but looked at Silos and saw Silos nodding at him, and then said: "No problem, we can communicate together, I think you must be better than me, because I don’t have the ability to write as well as yours. At the beginning, I received a lot of criticism from your majesty..."

Just as Asisters humbly encouraged Hernipolis, a person behind him stood up: "Master Shiros, we have been looking forward to you for a long time!"

"Are you?" Shiros looked at the talking stranger.

"Let me introduce." Asistes hurriedly said, "This is Trina's general-Bromaras. After the defeat of the Allied Forces in Southern Italy, he led the people in the city to retreat. Knapetia avoided the tragic fate of Siriting."

Bromaras solemnly said: "Master Hilos, the citizens of Trina will fight with you to take back our home!"

"Your wish will come true soon!" Shiros confidently promised.

"And this one—" Asistes pointed to another man next to him, and introduced to Silos: "Flarios, the captain of the three-tiered paddle warship of the Dionian fleet. , Under the order of the navy commander Sekrian, I have come to Knapetia to wait for you for a day."

Fralios took a step forward and made a military salute: "Master Hilos, our fleet is now anchored in the Port of Taurina. General Sekrian ordered me to discuss with you and get you to attack Terry. After Na’s time, I will return immediately and tell General Sekrian. He will lead the fleet, loaded with 4,000 soldiers of Lijim, land on the coast of Hibernian, and cut off the reinforcement route of Lokri..."

After hearing this, Silos couldn't help sighing: "Now that our navy is stronger, it will help the army even more offensively!"

He turned his head and looked at the pier. There were only a few hundred soldiers ashore, and troop carriers lined up one after another, extending to the outside of the port.

He looked back at Bromaras again, and the General Trina was looking at him expectantly.

"General Bromaras, how many soldiers do you have?" Silos asked suddenly.

"500 people." Seeing Hiros frowned, Bromaras added: "Counting older citizens, I can lead 900 people to fight with you."

"How many soldiers can Knapetia draw?" Silos asked Asistus again.

"Knapetia has 1,500 civilian soldiers. I can send a thousand to support you." Assistus said without hesitation.

"How many enemies are there in Trina?" Silos asked again.

"Well...According to our investigations these days, there may be 4,000 people, but more than half are citizen soldiers from Hibernian and Medema." Bromaras replied.

Silos lowered his head and pondered for a while, made up his mind, and said in a deep voice: "I will return to the ship now and lead the fleet to land on the coast of the Ophimia Plain and march into Trina."

"What?!" Assistus was taken aback and hurriedly persuaded: "The soldiers have been bumping at sea for several hours. They should be allowed to go ashore and rest. It will not be too late to leave tomorrow. Not to mention— "Back then, Asistes and Hiros fought side by side in Persia, knowing that once Hiros had an idea, it would be difficult for him to change, so he pointed to Flarios and said: "You have not been with us. Make contact with the fleet. Sekrian hopes that Lijim’s army will attack Hibernian first and lure Trina’s enemies back to defense so that you can easily take it when you attack Trina."
