This is scratching Phoebeidas’s itching. He really thought about this problem. He said in deep thought, "After you win the Battle of Siritiin, you should not continue to attack Crotone step by step, but The army should be allowed to go around Crotone by boat, bypass Turri, and land directly near Heraclea, rendezvous with Tarantum’s army, capture Heraclea, and take advantage of the main force of Dionia When he was not in Turri, he led a large army to directly invade the territory of Dionia from the north, without paying attention to the empty Amendorara, and directly approached the city of Turri.
If the Dionian army goes into battle, take the opportunity to annihilate it; if it stays firmly on the ground, it can attack Turrii. You can even capture the inner city of Crotone smoothly. Now that there are more troops from Tarantum, it shouldn't be a problem to capture the city of Turiyi. At the same time, you can send a small number of troops to block the exit of the west mountain road, so that the main force led by Daves cannot return in time..."
"The army goes around to Heraclia by ship?! General Phoebidas, don't forget that the Dionian fleet is in the mouth of the Krati River. It will surely rush to the sea to attack our fleet! "Felistos objected.
"You were frightened by Dionia’s Raven ship." Phoebe Das looked contemptuous: "I admit that Dionia naval tactics are very unique, but you underestimated Dai at the beginning. Onia, I did not concentrate all the warships on the expedition, but adopted my plan. The navy of Syracuse merged with the ships of Tarantum, and the number was more than three times that of the Dionian fleet. The ultimate victor of the naval battle will be you!...At that time, Siracusa has taken control of the coast and the city of Turrii. Even if Daves eventually returns to Dionia, he will eventually face Is also a torn apart alliance!"
"General Phoebe Das’s plan is good, but it is based on the fact that we already know the characteristics of the Dionian fleet and Daves will quickly lead his army to defeat the 50,000 army of Samo. The Nai people, and Daves’ command ability in the field is too strong, our army can’t fight against it at all... But the fact is, under the circumstances at the time, we all confidently believed that the strength was significantly weaker than Syracuse. Dionia of the United States could not stop our attack either at sea or on land, so Syracuse’s army will attack all the way to the north!” Felistos retorted, and Dionysius nodded slightly. .
"According to the original advice I gave to Dionysius, Syracuse shouldn’t have sent troops to land on Great Greece in order to save Lockriel, but should allow the southern Italian coalition forces to besiege Lockri. With our maritime support, Lokri cannot be breached. While Lokri is used to drag the Southern Italian coalition forces, Syracuse’s fleet cut off the maritime trade of the city-states such as Dionia and Crotone on the Western Mediterranean. With Dionian’s national strength, I am afraid that it will not be able to support it for half a year, so it must withdraw its troops from Lockley.
After that, we can concentrate our full efforts on attacking Lijim, which is the closest to Sicily, but farther from Dionia. Food transportation alone is a big difficulty, and we have to bypass Lokri and its allies. Territory is another big difficulty, and it is difficult to say whether Dionia can withstand such a huge consumption. Even if Daves really comes with a large army, we can leave by boat at any time...After going back and forth several times, Dionia would not dare to come back to reinforce Lijim, and as long as we take Lijim, we will not only have the ink completely. Sina Strait, you can collect more war funds, and also allow Sicily and Lokri forces to become one, there is no worries, and then you can implement Dionysius's original plan, and Dionia will eventually be killed by Thera. Kuzha’s powerful strength is dragged down..." Felistos said incessantly, but it was a regret in his heart.
Phoebidas was not angry, but after thinking about it carefully, he reminded: "Syracuse Fleet!"
"In my opinion, Dionia is worried that our powerful navy in Syracuse may allow its fleet to defend the Turíy coast. Even if it finally goes south, they have not yet had actual combat experience. In addition, Unfamiliarity with the sea will allow us to discover the weaknesses of the Raven ships earlier, so as not to be caught off guard by them..." Felistos explained.
"Good! Good! Phoebe Das, Felistos, your plans are all very good! If I followed your plan and implemented it, how could I be driven out of Sicily today, hey!" Theo Nisius looked regretful, and then he changed his words: "But these methods are no longer useful to deal with the future Dionia! It is said that Dionia not only annexed Lokri and its allies, but also annexed the tower. Rantum, even acquired Messina, occupied the Catania Plain in Sicily; to the north of it, the mighty Samoneites had succumbed to him. Now, Dionia owns Lucania, the Great Greece, Bruti, the eastern and central coast of Sicily, and many other regions, not only have a land area far greater than ours in Syracuse, but its strength has been improved more than before. Give it a few more years of stable development. It must be the most powerful Greek power! At that time, not only Syracuse will have to succumb to it, but even you Sparta, Athens, Thebes and other strong Greek states will have to do anything beforehand. Ask for its opinion!" Dionysius said seemingly unintentionally, but glanced at Phoebe Das.
Phoebedas sat blankly, but Dionysius knew that he must have listened, so he was ready to say a few more words, as long as Sparta can produce enough of Dionia The fear of Spartan, then Sparta will definitely try to hinder the development of Dionia, so that the possibility of him returning to Syracuse will increase.
At this time, his men walked into the cabin: "Master, the fleet has passed the Adriatic Sea and is approaching Corfu Island."
Hearing this, Phoebe Das felt a little complicated: Sparta is about to arrive!
"Order the fleet to sail southeast to Crete." Dionysius' voice made him turn his head in amazement: "Dionysius, you are not going to Sparta?!"
"Yes, I changed my mind. I am going to Cyrenaica." Dionysius smiled secretly.
Phoebedas can't sit still, he sternly asked: "You promised me to go to Sparta with me! I have sent someone to inform the Council of Elders!"
Dionysius pointed his finger at Phoebe Das arrogantly, and asked angrily: "You Spartans once promised me to support me for a long time, Dionysius, and now?! Now you are actually. Support those insurgents! How does this make me believe you!"
"This..." Phoebe Das was speechless.
It is estimated that Dionysius has been holding back for a long time, and the two glared at each other like a bull.
After a long while, Phoebe Das asked in a deep voice: "Dionysius, are you sure you are not going to Sparta?!"
"Phoebidas, I have never made a decision lightly in Syracuse these years, because every decision I make may affect the life and death of a large group of people, and it was me who went to Cyrenaica. An important decision!" Dionysius replied proudly. At this moment, he showed the majesty of a city-state tyrant.
Phoebe Das had a cold face and threatened: "Dionysius, you will regret this decision you made!" After speaking, he turned and walked out of the cabin.
"Sparta gave up me and chose Herolis. You will regret this decision in the future!" Dionysius shouted angrily behind him.
"Dionysius, we don't have to anger the Spartans at this time." Hiparinus looked worried.
"Dionysius discussed with me that Sparta is now at war. We went to Sparta. It is very likely that the two thousand mercenaries led by them will be forcibly recruited to fight. , The large sums of gold and silver we took may also be expropriated by them for military expenses, and our operations in Sparta will also be restricted by them. It is impossible to allow us to make active preparations for returning to Syracuse...
In the past few years, Cyrenaica and their king had just been overthrown, and now the nobles are in power. However, there are conflicts between the major ruling families, so the political situation is not stable, and the local indigenous Libyans often If there is a conflict, we will take two thousand mercenaries to Cyrenaica. Not only will they not be restricted, but they will also become the target of their scramble, which is conducive to our development..." Felistos explained carefully .
"On Ortigia, I promised Phoebidas to go to Sparta, just to confuse the Spartans. Now, the entire fleet, including the helmsman, is my confidant slave, and even the sailor is trusted Phoebe and his dozen or so Spartans can’t stop us! After Cyrenaica, I’ll send someone back to Sparta safely.” Dionysius The resentment on Si’s face was still there. He patted the wooden chair vigorously, and finally sighed helplessly: “Sparta betrayed us. According to my previous temperament, Phoebe Das’ head will be used to sacrifice Apo. Luo! Who told us that we still need Spartan's help in the future!"
As the three sighed, "Dad! Dad!..." With a crisp cry, a four-year-old child stumbled into the cabin.
"Little Dior, don't run around!" A teenage boy chased him and entered the cabin.
Dionysius picked up his son and asked in a pleasant manner: "Little Dior, do you miss dad?"
"I...I'm playing hide-and-seek with Brother Diang..." Little Dionysius turned around and pointed at the boy.
"Brother-in-law." Di Ang yelled respectfully.
Dionysius smiled and looked at his father-in-law Hiparinus’ son and Aristomaqi’s younger brother Dion. He liked his uncle very much. He was smart and studious, humble and polite, and diligent and conscientious. And there is no laziness of aristocratic children at all. What's interesting is that he can't play with his sister's two children, but he gets along well with Little Dionysius, the child of Lockley's wife, Doris.
