"Now, please sign up for veterans who want to be the chief executive of Enona."
As soon as Cornelus finished speaking, one person stood up quickly and said loudly, "I want to stand for election!"
Daves narrowed his eyes.
This is Miron, Miron, the former chief general of Crotone who had fought with Daves.
After Crotone was incorporated into the Kingdom of Dionia, he first assisted Crotone’s then chief executive Cornellus to rebuild Crotone City, and served several times in Crotone City. Intermediate position: construction officer, administrative deputy of agricultural officer......
After Dionia conquered Mesapi, because Miron performed well in Crotone, Daves personally ordered Miron to serve as the chief executive of Udia, the central town of Mesapi. Show complete trust in him. And Miron did not disappoint. After taking office, he worked vigorously and calmed down several riots. He found several tribes that were unwilling to surrender, including the family of Pasimerus (after Pasimerus’ defeat in the Battle of Brindisi). Soon he died violently. There are divergent opinions about the cause of his death. Some people think he committed suicide because of the hopeless future of Mesapi. Some people say that his family members assassinated him in order to seize power. Dissatisfied with his dictatorship, take this opportunity to kill him). Milon treated them mercilessly, either execution, imprisonment or deportation, making the entire Udiah area very orderly, and even the people in the nearby town of Mesapi became much more honest.
Six months ago, Miron ended his term of office and returned to Turri, without requesting re-election.
At this moment, Miron is applying to go to Enona. Daves is not very optimistic about him. After all, Enona needs a relationship with Campania and Samona. The political means are flexible. Without losing the hard-hearted veteran, Miron, who was called the "executioner" by some Udiars, was too radical in his ruling style.
At this moment, another elder stood up in the crowd.
Adrianx! Daves' eyes blinked again.
After the Southern Italy War, many city-states were merged into the Kingdom of Dionia. Although the Senate also absorbed many new veterans from these city-states, they could not be sent out immediately to manage a city independently. Because their loyalty needs to be verified, and they still don't understand Dionia's political system and laws, and they need to be familiar with it for a while.
However, there are not many senior senators in the Senate, but these new senators become the majority. As a result, the Senate urgently promoted many outstanding mid-level public officials to become senators, such as Asistus, Oliver, Matonis, Geogris, Sekrian, Aristocrates, and Flaucle. Ang, and even Matikoris, Mentotic Els, and Stacy Kodas of Dionian Academy, etc., all entered the Senate in that period.
But at that time there were not many old people who had experience in city chief executives, and there were many city chief executives in the kingdom that urgently needed elders to take up positions. For this reason Daves and Kunogolata had to Mobilize the former mercenary veterans to take up the important tasks, volunteer to serve as the chief executives of these new territories, and assist the new local veterans, so as to encourage the old veterans to learn to govern in practice, and the new veterans to understand the operation of the kingdom’s system through assistance. Daves believes that this is a win-win situation, so there were many situations like "Antonios became the chief executive of Naxos, Alexis governed Enona, and Hilos took over Lockley." There have been some problems, but generally speaking, it has ensured the order and stability of the Kingdom of Dionian and the good operation of the political system.
Adrianx is also one of the elders who were driven off the shelves by the ducks. Stimulated by the incident of "becoming a laughing stock at the isthmus", he learned from the pain and strengthened the learning of knowledge and culture. He also went to the Dionian Academy to listen to Lycias teaching eloquence, so he served as an administrator for the first time. When he was governor, he didn't even ask the Senate to send new senators from the local towns to help. Of course, this newly incorporated town was also the best managed. Castellon-a small city next to Turíy, has been under the influence of Dionian, its people's admiration for Dionian, so that Castellon has not joined Dionian before. It looks like the satellite city of Tury.
Therefore, Adrianx successfully governed at Castellon for three years. His greatest achievement in Castellon was to lay the foundation for Castellon to truly become the satellite city of Turie (the other satellite town of Turie is Bisignia). From the convenience of transportation to the expansion of the port, and the participation of the Castellons in the city rugby and football matches in Turíy... etc., Adrianx has made a lot of efforts. He also wrote to the Senate several times to apply: transform the tidal flat north of Castellon into a military port, and invite the First Fleet of Dionia to settle in.
At that time, it coincided with the expansion of Turiyi City. The military port that was temporarily built in the lower reaches of the Krati River for the South-Italian War was no longer suitable for the fleet to be stationed. The funding and free renovation of this troublesome tidal flat land also promoted the development of the port of Castellon and small commerce. Although the main force of the First Fleet was later moved to the great port of Tarantum due to the continuous expansion of the Dionian territory and the needs of the kingdom’s strategy, the Castellon Naval Port is still one of the important military ports in the Gulf of Taranto. So to this day, the Castellons still talk about his goodness.
Later, Adrianks was transferred to the chief executive of Heraclea. This is another great Greek city-state that has long since returned. Adrianks has no difficulty in governing, but he has not been idle: three years in office. , Led the people to dredge the rivers, build bridges, fill up marshes... When he left, the floods suffered by the Heraclians every year have also been greatly reduced.
Next, he became the chief executive of Ugentum. Ugentum is a seaport town in the Mesapi region, across the sea from Crimea. Due to the small population in the city and the frequent sea trade with the Greek city-states of Great Greece, the Ugentum people are not like Udi The people of Egypt have a deep guard against the Greeks, so Adriánquez’s ruling still has no major troubles, and he uses Ugentum’s proximity to the Gulf of Taranto and at the same time the proximity of Udia’s location. The location, the vigorous expansion of the port and the construction of the avenue to Udia have made Ugentum a transit point between Turri and Udia (because Turri-Ugentum-Udia has become the most The convenient route usually only takes a day's journey), which also brings benefits to the people of Ugentum.
Adrianx’s three times as the chief executive is dazzling. The Royal Management Committee gave him an “excellent” score for government affairs during his tenure, and evaluated that he is good at urban construction and can improve people’s lives.
However, Enona's situation is more complicated than that of Castellon, Heraclea, and Ugentum. Daves is not sure whether Adrianx can handle it well.
Then another elder raised his hand, and most of the elders around showed complex expressions: Nicomacus, the elder from Lockley.
In the Great Greek War, Lokri became an accomplice of Dionysius, the tyrant of Syracuse, and was alleged to have assassinated Daves, so Lokri became a rat on the street. To the spurn of the great Greeks. After Lorry returned to Dionia, in order to stabilize the former great Greek state and its allies, several members of the Lorry Council who would have high prestige were elected as the veterans of Dionia to drive away Demonia. Dorcas, Nicomacus, who first proposed surrender, was of course one of them.
Nicomarkus stayed in Lockley like Milon, and assisted Hiros in governing Lockley. The Locles quickly accepted the rule of Dionia, which was attributed to Nicomacus. Of course, there was also a reason why Locle’s culture was compatible with Dionia, because the Locles used the wife of Hades Persephone and Aphrodite, the patron saint of the city, have a natural closeness to the Dionians. In addition, Lokri's severe punishment also makes it easier for Lokri to obey authority.
Davos named Nicomacus as the chief executive of Odrum in his six years in Dionia.
Odrum is also a seaside city in the Mesapi region. Unlike Ugentum, Odrum is located at the southeastern tip of the Italian peninsula. Due to the fertile surrounding land, the town has a large population and it is located in Yad The exit of the Ria Sea is the closest place on the Italian peninsula to the mainland of Greece. Two hundred miles across the Adriatic Sea is the famous Corfu Island. Therefore, Odrum is also the Mesapi region and is most influenced by the native Greek culture. In the towns, sometimes you can even see Athenian merchants and Pithias merchants representing the Spartans in their ports.
After the Mesapis were conquered, Odrum was the second most turbulent city after Udia, which shows the difficulty of governance, but within three years of Nicomacus’s tenure, Odrum The political situation in Rum City is stable, and the people are gradually returning to their hearts, which shows its strong ability.
Actually, Daves believes that Nicomácus is the best candidate for the chief executive of Enona, but he has stated in advance that he will not appoint a candidate, so the possibility of Nicomácus being selected is very slim. Because the Lokerians were not welcomed by the patriarchs of Great Greece.
Another senator who participated in the election was a senator from Sicily, but he was different from other Sicilian senators. He was from Syracuse.
After the Great Greece War, Syracuse and Dionia reached a peace agreement. After that, a group of Syracuse people and slaves strongly demanded to leave Syracuse. It turned out that Dionysius conquered On the east-central coast of Sicily, people from other city-states were forcibly moved to enrich the land of Syracuse. Among them, the Leotini people were the majority, and these people were one of them.
