Clotokatax was not surprised. During this period of time, he was with Daves. Daves would ask him questions from time to time when dealing with government affairs. He was used to it and forced him to always respond to incoming messages. Think about the battle reports and information.
At this time, he walked to the table, stared at the map of Samone and Campania, lost in thought.
By this time, everyone else in the tent has remained quiet.
Tolmeide looked at Cloto Kataks, who was thinking about it, and couldn't help feeling sighed.
During his time in Latham, because he often had to help Davers with military affairs, he stayed with Davers most of the time and had a long time in contact with Cloto Kataks. He witnessed this with his own eyes. The prince of Dionia went from being passionate and immature at first to becoming steady and thoughtful. From the first officials, generals and soldiers to see him with suspicion, to gradually identify with him, thanks to Daves His teaching is good, and it is also inseparable from his own talents and hard work.
Judging from all the signs, if nothing else, Cloto Catacs is likely to be the next King of Dionia! Tolmeide thought in his heart: in the future, we must create conditions as much as possible so that our children can have contact with Croto Catacsdo! At the beginning I lacked courage, did not follow Daves to Great Greece from the beginning, and my abilities are limited, so I have today’s status, almost the end, but the next generation...
As Tolmeide was thinking about it, Cloto Kataks had already sorted out his thoughts and said to Daves: "Father, if we have completely defeated the Samona tribe alliance, my The opinion is... the towns of Kautini in the eastern plains of Campania, except for Naconia, should be merged into Dionia, which expands our territory and protects us. The alliance (referring to the Campania alliance) can also deter the races in the mountains nearby.
However, for these towns in the mountains, it is better to be managed by the Samoneites themselves. On the one hand, the Samoneites are rebellious, and the tribes there seldom come into contact with our Dionians. The culture and customs are completely different. It is very difficult to send officials to govern, and it is easy to cause conflicts, which wastes the energy and energy of the kingdom. Financial resources; on the other hand, the land in the mountains is barren, the environment is harsh, and the products are not abundant. I am afraid that not many Dionian citizens are willing to move to the Samona Mountains, so it is difficult for us to assimilate the Samona races in the mountains in a short time. .
Also...Pentney and Karacheni, the two Samona races are adjacent to other races in the northern mountains. If we forcibly annex the lands of these two tribes, I am afraid it will arouse the vigilance and hatred of other races. Cause unpredictable consequences.
So I think...it is possible to dissolve the Samona tribe alliance and make these four major tribes of Samona become affiliated allies of the kingdom, but it is necessary to retain the position of the chief leader of each tribe, so as to prevent their strength from being damaged. After being weakened, they can resist their former enemies in the north and reduce our troubles..."
Clotoks talked eloquently. Before Daves responded, Tolmeide praised: "Your Majesty, Prince Croto is very considerate. I think his suggestions are very good. Reason!"
Henipolis looked at Tolmeide, blinked and said nothing.
Davers smiled comfortedly and said affirmatively: "Crotto, your proposal is very inspiring to me. The Samona tribe alliance should indeed be disbanded. For the complete annexation of the Samona Mountains, from now on It seems that it may not be the time yet, so it is still necessary to retain the original political structure of several tribes and allow the existence of big leaders to facilitate the kingdom's control over them..."
Daves' approval of his suggestion made Croto Kataks excited.
"But—" Daves turned his words, looked at him, and said earnestly: "You haven't considered the problem carefully enough, and the treatment of the Samonais is still relatively rough. The four tribes have their own situation. Different, they should be dealt with differently.
Silpini, as the largest tribe in Samona, is also the tribe that borders the kingdom's territory the most. Although its territory is in the mountains, we should not be too indulgent. Beneventum must be incorporated into the kingdom. This is a rare and fertile lowland in the Samona Mountains, and the area is not small. I think the kingdom’s prospective citizens and free citizens are willing to settle there. And its location is also very important. It is right in the center of the territory of Sirpine and Kautini, next to Abeni Rum and Kautim. With it, we have a stable Samona Mountains. The cornerstone of the south.
In addition, Abeni Rum has always been friendly with the kingdom and contributed a lot in this war, and has become the kingdom’s free city. We should reward him and allow Gherny to serve as Shirpy. Ni’s chieftain, dominates other Shillpini tribes and territories except Bereventum, making it the second potentia of the kingdom, allowing it to compete with Penteni and Karache in the northern part of the mountainous area. The strength of Nepal ensures the safety of the northern part of the kingdom.
Cautini, this tribe is quite special. Its territory is either the eastern plains of Campania or the lowlands in the valleys. In fact, they are very suitable for the people of the kingdom to settle. You just said that the towns of Kautini on the eastern plains of Campania should be merged into Dionia, but this appetite is not big enough. Now that Beneventum is ready to be included in the kingdom’s territory, Then Kautim on the west of it, as well as the surrounding small towns, should also be included in our annexation plan, because this will ensure the connection between Beneventum and the eastern plains of Campania. So that it will not hang alone outside the kingdom's territory.
Don’t forget Naconia. The people in this territory have been in contact with the kingdom for more than ten years, and they eventually joined us. We should guarantee their territory. However, the position of Naconia is more important. Before the Samonaites aggressively attacked the Campania Alliance and captured Pompeii, Herculaneum and other city-states, now Zanteparis has regained Pompeii and Herculane. Nimes, so far, the Campania League has not asked us to return these two small cities. It is said that the Campania League suffered heavy casualties in this war. There are not enough people to cultivate these lands. My opinion It was an envoy to negotiate with the Campania Alliance to merge these two small cities into Dionia—"
Henipolis’ eyes lit up and interjected: “In this way, Bereventum, Kautim, the former town of Kautini in the eastern plains of Campania, and Pompeii, Herculaneum can be connected with the kingdom of Enona, but...Naconia has become an obstacle..."
Davers said confidently: "We can discuss with the Naconians and let them move to a place north of Capua, where there is the Voltuno River, the land is more fertile, and we can allow them to own More territories than the existing Naconia, and at the same time allow them to elect Kautini’s chief leader, and govern the northernmost parts of the original Kautini territory, along with Sidi Sini, Oronchi, and Pentney. The neighboring Kautini tribe, I believe they will be willing, so that we can completely occupy the central and southern lands of Kautini, and connect with Enona to completely protect the safety of our newly occupied land.
For the two tribes of Penteni and Karacheni, their tribal settlements and towns are in the mountains north of Samona, where the mountains are higher and the roads more difficult to walk. Especially the Karacheni tribe, it is said that their settlements are all in the kilometer-high mountains, so their land is more barren and their population is not large. We do not need to occupy their land, but they must surrender to the kingdom. The leaders of their tribes must surrender their children and send them to Turiyi as hostages. Their elected leaders must be confirmed by the kingdom before they can serve. ……"
Klotokatax listened to Davos's plan to deal with the Samona Tribe Alliance, and after a careful taste, he said convincingly: "Father, your plan is much better than mine! It is indeed more detailed than I think!......"
"That’s because you are too kind to the Samoneite tribe. When considering the issue, you did not fully stand in the position of obtaining greater benefits for the kingdom, weakening our enemies to the greatest extent, and making them powerless to rebel. Consider the problem." Daves pointed out sharply.
"Father, but—" Cloto Catacs asked: "Silpini and Cavutini can accept your plan, but Pentney and Karacheni may not necessarily accept it."
"Then continue to fight until they accept it, and leave this to Alexis and Zanteparis. Since the war has been fought against the Samonais, then through this war, even if you pay more The price of this should also completely solve the problems of the Samoneites and prevent them from rebelling in the future!" Daves warned him earnestly.
Clotokatax nodded thoughtfully.
Davos turned around and said: "Heney, what I just said, the plan for dealing with the four tribes of Samona, have you heard clearly?"
"I heard you clearly, Your Majesty."
"Then write a letter to the Senate according to what I just said, and ask them to pre-arrange Samona’s affairs on this basis. Then give Alexis and Zantepa with the same meaning Reese each wrote a letter to let them know how to adjust their strategy next."
"Understood, Your Majesty, I will write now." Henipolis said, taking out the papyrus.
Clotokatax and Tolmid’s thoughts are still immersed in Daves’s series of plans to deal with the Samonais, thinking about what impact it will have on the Samonais , The big tent became quiet, so you could hear the sound of "Shusha" writing.
