At dusk, the Dionian coalition forces dug trenches, cleared the weeds and trees in the camp area, and initially built soil barriers... The entire coalition camp showed an arc-shaped ellipse with waves at both ends. The camp of the Tentia army and the Abenirum army is further north, and the Dionian army camp is to the southwest, because the hills to the east are not completely continuous. It has some low hills, Alek The Sith considered more support for the weaker Abenirum, and extended the camp to the break of the hill on the east side (behind the side of the Abenirum camp), avoiding the hill It cuts off the connection between the Abeni Rum camp and the main force, making it possible to become the focus of the enemy's assault.
At this time, the main force of the Sammonite coalition forces was bloated (carrying a lot of slaves and property taken from prison), coupled with the harassment of the Campania army, only to be able to reach Dkautim.
At night, Lescuk orchestrated a night attack on the Dionian coalition camp, the main target being the Potentians.
Although the cautious Alexis had warned beforehand that Polett was prepared, the night attack by the Beneventum people still caused some chaos for the inexperienced Potentia fighters.
Afterwards, Alexis, who got the news, immediately sent reinforcements.
Lesguk was unable to further expand some of the advantages he gained because of his lack of strength. Before the enemy's reinforcements arrived, he asked the soldiers to burn some tents and then quickly retreated.
…………………………………
On the same day, Zanteparis led half of the reserve army, set off from the port of Enona, took the fleet, bypassed the Sorrento Peninsula, landed on the coast near Pompeii without any hindrance, and then The city of Pompeii, which had been looted, was successfully recovered.
Next, he sent troops to easily regain the city of Oplontis, which was not far from Pompey and was also empty.
After lunch, Zanteparis left 200 soldiers to garrison in each of the two cities, and then led 3,600 soldiers to march east, into the territory of Naconia, and some of the small towns of Baparia with the army. Residents and priests (this small town burnt down by Segovani, whose residents have been in close contact with the Naconians for many years, many of whom can speak Samona) began to shout in Samona, "For Kui Induk takes revenge, drives out the Kautim, and returns me to the free Naconia..." and other slogans, which aroused the resonance of the original Naconian tribes. Especially when they saw the Hades priests and residents of Bavaria they were familiar with in the team, they immediately liked this team. Therefore, Zanteparis’s army was supported and welcomed by many Naconian people. People continue to join the team along the way.
After Segovanni trapped Quinduk and occupied the territory of Naconia, he was busy cooperating with other tribes and attacking the Campania alliance, but only slaughtered some Nacones who believed in Hades. The Asian tribes forced the tribes to give in, so they sent almost all the young and middle-aged tribesmen to attack the Campania Alliance, while leaving 500 fighters from Kautim to garrison the city of Naconia. .
As for the next forcibly relocating several large tribes of Naconia to other areas, and then relocating several tribes from Kautim to Naconia, occupying the vacant land... and so on, complete control. The measures in this area of Naconia have not been implemented in the future due to the rush of time, but the tribes of Naconia have already felt the survival crisis, especially the brutal behavior of the Kautim fighters in the city, every day. It gave birth to the anger in the hearts of the people of Naconia.
When the Kautim warriors stood at the head of the city, shocked by the huge army of enemies under the city (half of them were people from the various tribes of Nakonya, Zanteparis placed them at the back of the line, Therefore, the soldiers in the city cannot see clearly), and the people in the city are excited about the arrival of the reinforcements, and at the same time they have begun to take action. They burned the temporary camp of the Kautim warriors in the city while the Kautim warriors were all up to defend the city.
Seeing the fire that started in the camp, the Kautim warriors were even more alarmed. How could they know that Naconia has become as dangerous as the outside of the city, and their home is in Kautim, originally There is no determination to defend this town that has nothing to do with them, so when the situation is not good, he immediately goes down to the city, trying to escape from the east gate where there is no enemy outside the city. Unexpectedly, javelins were shot from the houses on both sides of the street from time to time, killing and injuring the fleeing soldiers, and on the street in front, the people in the city blocked the road with wood, mud bricks, and stones. This caused chaos to the escaped team.
After the Kautim warrior left the city, the people in the city quickly opened the unguarded Simon. Zanteparis led the soldiers in, and under the guidance of the people in the city, they attacked the enemy. The pursuit began.
The Kautim warriors were in a big collapse. Except for a few who fled the city, most of the warriors were either killed or captured.
Since the leaders of the various tribes of Naconia are under the control of Segowani, the Naconian people who got rid of Segowani’s control soon selected several respected elderly people from various tribes, and Dio The Nyah army negotiated.
And Zantiparis also took the initiative to evacuate the army from Naconia to show his sincerity.
Soon, the two sides reached a simple agreement: The Dionian army will make every effort to ensure the security of the Naconia Territory, but will not send troops to the city of Naconia; the tribes of Naconia allow Dio Nia transports the heavy team across the territory to Abeni Rum, and tries to provide help; Dionia will send the priests of Hades to Naconia to preside over the sacred affairs as soon as possible, and repair the gods of Hades as soon as possible Temple; Dionian will do his best to help the Naconian fighters who were intimidated by Segovanni to return to their homes. Naconian will also send people to follow the Dionian army to persuade the Naconian fighters to flee...
The agreement was reached, and Zanteparis sighed, because two of the agreements are very important to the Dionian coalition forces that are fighting at the moment: one is the problem of food transportation, because if the food is transported by sea , To Poseidonia, then to Kopsa via rugged mountain roads, then to Abeni Rum via mountain roads, and finally to the Dionian coalition camp in Beneventum, which is time-consuming. , And labor-intensive; and if you go to Pompeii by sea, then pass through the territory of Naconia, and reach Abeni Rum via mountain roads (there are thousands of high mountains between Naconia and Abeni Rum) , There are only a few narrow mountain roads connecting the two places, but the distance is not too far. This also eliminates the possibility of the Samona’s allied forces crossing the mountains and intercepting the grain road). This way, the entire road is almost reduced by half, so in the popular science When Sa broke up, Alexis and Zanteparis had already discussed a plan, and the recovery of Naconia was the top priority.
The other is to enter into a friendly agreement with the Naconians. With their help, it is natural for the Naconian fighters in the Sammonite coalition to flee their army and weaken their strength.
But what Zantiparis did not expect was that the Naconians would proactively propose to welcome back the priests of Hades, perhaps because Segowani persecuted Hades in the Naconian territory. The believers, on the contrary, aroused the rebellious psychology of the Naconian people, and at this time of chaos, the arrival of the priest of Hades can help Naconi in difficulty in many aspects such as healing, relief, and comfort. For the Asian people, this is something that local priests such as Savoni cannot do.
………………………………………
That night, the soldiers fled back to Kautim, and Segowani was taken aback when he learned about it. When the army retreated, Naconia was likely to be attacked by the enemy, which he expected. But he lost the southernmost land of the Kautini tribe so quickly. The role and hostility of the Naconians in it shocked him.
On the one hand, he blocked the news to avoid letting the Naconian soldiers know it; on the other hand, he sent 500 more soldiers (including the defeated soldiers) to Lola and Cesala to the west. I hope these two cities can become a barrier to the south of Kautim.
To be honest, he was not worried about the Campanian army, but he was a bit embarrassed by the Dionians, even though their number of soldiers was probably not large.
………………………………………
The next day, the Dionian forces continued to build the camp. With the lessons learned last night, the coalition soldiers worked harder, cutting down trees, building wooden fences, building outposts, and arranging deer villages...
And Lescuk gradually adapted to the enemy’s deployment of troops to suppress the city and the bombardment of ballistas, and sent soldiers out of the city to harass many times. The Dionian coalition forces, which also gradually gained experience, took corresponding defensive measures and paid After a few casualties, they were forced to retreat.
In the afternoon, more than 10,000 Samona coalition soldiers finally entered the city of Beneventum.
On the same day, Zanteparis led 3,600 soldiers out of the Naconia Territory and marched north. After two hours of march, he approached the city of Lola. Here, they joined the 8,000 Campanian Confederate soldiers from the west, and their total strength reached 11,600.
There were only 1,500 Cavutini fighters in Lola. Of course, they felt very nervous, so the four gates were closed, the whole city was mobilized, and all the fighters went up to the top of the city and prepared for defense.
The feng shui turns. Two days ago, the allied forces of the Samona tribe swept across the territory of the Campania Alliance. Only one city of Naples on the Campania plain was surrounded by the Samonais. The shouts of the Samona fighters were all It can make countless people fleeing tremble in the city of Naples. Now the situation is reversed. The Campanian army united with the Dionians and surrounded the famous town of Lola in Kautini. The soldiers were both excited and a little nervous.
