"Since Dionysius wants to negotiate peace, what are the conditions he gave?" Daves asked calmly, as if the things Damocles said had never happened before. Instead, Damocles felt the pressure.
He leaned forward and said: "Master Dionysius’ proposal is,'The army of Syracuse should return to Sicily and return all the occupied lands and towns of Great Greece, as well as prisoners. But the Southern Italian League must also do Give a guarantee that there will be no war with the Rocky Alliance..."
"What?!" After hearing this, Hernipolis couldn't help but yelled again: "Do you think we are fools! Killed so many Dionian people, and killed Crimea, The territory outside the city of Asprostum turned into a ruin, provoking civil strife in the Bruti area... Now you have been defeated and you are trapped in Siriting. We are about to do a good job with you. The blood debt of the pen, but you want to escape back to Sicily smoothly by relying on a peace talk, it is not so easy!"
This time, Damocles didn’t ignore it. He looked at Daves and said seriously: “The peace talks are not our Syracuse’s final say. You can also make your terms.”
Davers pondered for a while, and slowly said: "You come back tomorrow. I need to think about this seriously, and I have to discuss it with Trina and Siriti."
When Damocles heard it, he looked at the tangled look on Davers's face, and he was immediately happy: It seems that this time the peace talks are really hopeful!
After Damocles left, Hernipolis finally couldn't help it, and asked with a look of surprise: "Your Majesty, you...Do you really want to negotiate with the Syracuse?!"
"Do you think it is possible!" The calm expression on Davers's face suddenly became sharp.
"But you just...just now--" Hernipolis seemed to realize something.
"The words of the messenger of Siracusa reminded me that even if we eliminate the enemies here, Siracusa may still piece together another army to continue fighting with us, so—"Daves looked at Looking brightly at the lively camp ahead, he said firmly: "We can't just stare at Great Greece. There is a good saying, "If you fight a wolf, you will be injured by a wolf." We must think of ways. Completely kill this evil wolf in Syracuse!"
Honeypolis was excited when he said: "Your Majesty, are you going to attack Sicily?!"
Davers nodded, considering that this young man will be his confidant in the future, he also revealed a slight tone: "Aristilas's men have already been active in Sicily. With the victory of this battle, we Need to put more effort--"
At this moment, Tolmid came to report with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, Sekrian sent a messenger. His fleet with 5000 Lijim soldiers landed on the coast of Hibernian and has been surrounded. Hibernian City!"
Daves had heard Hilos talk about Sekelian’s plan before, but he was not surprised. He touched his chin, meditated for a while, and then issued an order: "Tormid, you go to Hiros and Antonio Call him and Hironimos."
"Yes." Tolmead turned and left.
"Heney, I dictate, you record and write a letter."
"Okay." This is the first time Hernipolis has accepted the task as a clerk, and he replied excitedly. At the moment the big tent has not been built, he looked around, and quickly found a plank, cut a piece of papyrus, lay on the grass, and asked: "Who is the letter addressed to?"
"Legim's chief general Attily Cruises."
"Oh." Hernipolis rolled his eyes, and he knew that this was Daves' father-in-law.
…………………………………
It didn't take long for several generals to arrive.
Daves did not say much to them either, but said bluntly: “Time is urgent! Lijim’s army landed on Sekrian’s warship and surrounded the city of Hibernian. The garrison of Medmar was very Maybe they will go north for rescue. I ask you to lead your troops to Hibernian immediately, repel the reinforcements of Lokri, and seize the city of Hibernian. I will send you an additional siege battalion."
Daves said, his eyes swept across the faces of the generals he trusted, and finally fell on Silos: attacking Kraos, marching quickly to Trina, decisively going north to intercept Sila The return journey of the army of Kuza...Daves was amazed by the series of military actions taken by the independent leader of Silos during this period.
So, he slowly said: "This time, Shiros will serve as the commander general. You must all obey his orders!"
Leides heard this and had no objection. The cavalry had always been attached to the infantry. There were very few independent military operations to besieged and attacked the city of Xiliting. The cavalry was useless and could be sent out to fight. Enough for him.
Hieronimus frowned and said nothing. Back then, when he was in Persia, he was a general of a mercenary. Hiros was only a small captain. His qualifications were much larger than Hiros, but now he has to listen to Hiros's command. It is impossible to have no idea in his heart. , But as long as Hieronymus can be valued by the commander and there is a place to show his talents, his desire to fight for power is not great. What's more, in the past few years in Great Greece, Hiros' performance is obvious to all, whether it is military or government affairs, he admires him.
Antonius felt uncomfortable. After all, Hiros was still his subordinate before, but now he has to listen to Hiros's command, and he feels very awkward. What's more, he thought that his abilities were not inferior to Shiros, and that he led Dionia's most powerful First Army. If those proud soldiers heard about this, it would be an uproar.
Thinking of this, he was about to speak.
Silos has preemptively said: "Your Majesty, I think Lord Anton Rios is more suitable to be the commander of this military operation. Not only is he experienced, the First Army under his command is also the most reliable for this operation. Strength! As a commander, he can make all the brothers in the battle willing to obey the command!"
Antonius glanced at him, then turned to look at Daves.
Davos smiled slightly. After several years of tempering, Hiros even spoke more tactfully.
Davos shook his head slightly: "Antonios can't be the commander of the attack on Hibernian. The First Corps he leads has more important tasks to perform!"
Antonius heard the doubts in his heart: Is there anything more important than attacking Siritim and attacking Lockley? !
"General Hironimos, Commander of the Ledes Legion, you two will assist Hiros in repelling the Locles and take down Hibernian as soon as possible!" Daves clenched his fists and waved vigorously. : "Then push Medema, if you have a chance, take it, so that the Lokerians will have no place on the west coast of Great Greece!"
Hieronimus and Leides immediately expressed their willingness to obey Hiros's command with all their strength.
"Just now it was just my suggestion. You have to make the specific actions flexibly according to the battlefield situation. You don't need to ask me for instructions. I believe that your results will exceed my expectations." Daves encourages three Ren, and then said to Hiros: "Going to Hibernian this time involves cooperating with Lijim's army. You have to handle your relationship with them."
"I will, Your Majesty." Silos nodded cautiously.
"But you don't have to worry too much. Lijim's commander is called Feidun. I heard that he is a brave, good-natured Lijim who is easy to get along with and understands the overall situation." Daves comforted him.
Then, he looked at Antonios and solemnly said: "After the First Legion arrives at Hibernian and assists Hiros to repel Locke’s reinforcements, if it is easier to capture Hibernian City, then the First Legion Participate in the siege; if the siege takes a long time, then the First Army should not stay in Hibernian for a long time. Sekrian’s fleet is docked on the coast of Hibernian, and the soldiers of the First Army are all Get on the boat and go to Lijim."
"The First Army is going to Lijim?!" Antonios was a little surprised.
"Yes, go to Lijim." Daves took a letter from Hernipolis, handed it to Antonios, and seriously ordered: "You give this letter to Atilik of Lijim Lord Ruth, if he provides you with rations and other assistance according to the letter, then the final destination of the First Army is Sicily. If he refuses, then the First Army can only return to Hibernian."
"Sicily"-When Davers spit out this word, the generals present were shocked.
"Why? Scared?!" Daves looked at Antonios teasingly.
Originally, Antonios was still a little dissatisfied with Daves’s selection of Hiros as the commander of the expedition. Now that he will lead his army to leave Greece and expedition to Sicily across the sea alone, he can’t help but feel pressured, but Daves’s Jijiang made him bite the bullet and said: "The First Army...willing to go to Sicily."
"The combat effectiveness of the First Army is the strongest in the Dionian Army, and many of the soldiers are old brothers who participated in the Persian expedition. They have rich experience in fighting in enemy territory. Therefore, if The First Army was unable to implement this combat plan, and it was even more unlikely that the other corps could gain a foothold in Sicily!" Daves said to Antonios expectantly.
Antonius squeezed a smile in response.
"You don’t have to be too nervous. Although most of Sicily is now under Syracuse’s control, Syracuse relies on powerful military forces and tyrannical killings to deter those who were originally independent. The city-states of Sicily forced them to surrender. Dionysius planted tyrants to help him rule these city-states, and collected high amounts of tribute to maintain his huge army expenditure. The Greeks of Sicily and even Syracuse The people in the city are already very dissatisfied with Dionysius!"
