Daves smiled slightly and said loudly: "If you understand the history of the founding of Dionian, you will find that Dionian has never actively invaded the territory of other cities and races, usually other forces come first. Violating Dionia, and even some city-states are breaking their promises, suddenly tearing up their covenant with us, flagrantly invading Dionia’s territory, and killing Dionia’s people, which led to our Dionia’s anger. Fight back angrily and destroy it.
It can be seen that we Dionia is not the Rome that used to be. We are not tyrannical or greedy for the land of other countries. On the contrary, we love peace and are willing to get along with our neighbors around us. Here, in the Latham area, Dionia will continue to uphold our usual diplomatic attitude. For any forces that want to have friendly exchanges with Dionia, we will get along with them in peace, and even sign some friendly agreements. More extensive trade exchanges, cultural exchanges, and even mutual assistance...
I want to make a solemn promise to you here. Dionia came to Latham not to bring more wars to this war-prone land, but to eliminate wars and bring Come for peace and prosperity. This applies not only to the Romans and Latins under the rule of Dionian, but also to you who, as neighbors of Rome, are also willing to get along with us in friendship! "
Although some forces have received similar assurances in their contact with the envoys sent by Dionian, when the words were uttered by King Dionian himself, the envoys would undoubtedly feel more at ease. .
Then the Sabine envoy asked again: "Can we Sabines also become an alliance with Dionia?"
"Of course!" Daves smiled and said, "As long as you Sabine are willing to be friends of Dionian, of course Dionian is also willing to form an alliance with you! When the banquet is over, you can find Our diplomat, Tapirus, is discussing the alliance."
Daves said while pointing at Tapirus who was sitting at the banquet.
Tapirus immediately stood up and greeted the Sabine messenger with a smile.
The Sabine envoy hurriedly responded with a long sigh of relief: Dionian occupied Rome and Philodine, and Crustalum surrendered to them, and Dionian’s sphere of influence was the same as that of the Sabines. Among all the surrounding forces, Sabine has become the closest force to Rome, the central town of the Kingdom of Dionian in Latham. The Romans have been suppressing Sabine for more than 10 years. , And now there is a Dionian stronger than Rome, which makes them feel even more frightened. Now that King Dionia has promised to form an alliance, they can be said to be completely relieved.
It's not just the Sabines, other forces also have such fears, so the messengers also expressed their willingness to form an alliance with Dionia.
Daves agreed one by one.
"His Majesty King Dionian, I have a question." The envoy of Massi asked loudly: "If there is a war between Dionian's two allies... For example, our Marcy has already been with Dionian. Formed an alliance, and later conflicts with the Helnikians led to wars, and they all turned to Dionian for help. Does Dionian help the Helnikians who are more closely related to you? Or help the newly formed alliances. Marcy?"
"We Helniki people are busy rebuilding our homes, how could we be in conflict with the Masi people who helped us!" Although Nemery was complaining, like the other messengers, he was looking forward to Daves' answer. .
"Central Italy has many powers and complex relations, and conflicts and wars have occurred from time to time. In these years, it was only because of the strong and rapid expansion of Rome and the pressure from the surrounding forces that they had to temporarily unite." Dave Slightly smiled, his voice was not loud, but he said firmly: "I have already said that Dionia came here for peace and prosperity. We will first stop the ongoing war and gather the two sides to create a conflict. Discuss the reasons for the conflict, find a solution to the conflict, so that the two sides can finally restore peace.
I believe that people of all races yearn for a peaceful life, and don’t want to be involved in wars where there is no guarantee of life. If there is such a race that makes a living by war and plunder, then it will be ours. Dangerous, we will come to crusade together! Are you right? "
"My lord, you are right! If Wolsey clashed with other races one day, we are willing to listen to the Dionian messenger to help us resolve the dispute!" Catal Montalos first stated his position.
"We in Helniki are also willing to follow any decision of the Dionian messenger!" Nemeri also said rushingly.
The messengers of other races, including the Masi people, have already understood: King Davos is going to establish a new order centered on Dionia in central Italy, and to let other races and forces obey .
For them, this is actually not a bad thing, because according to what they know, the Dionian army did not pay much casualties, and eliminated Rome, which they feared. Since Dioni The King of Asia promised not to use such horrible force, but to resolve the dispute through negotiation, then they were much more relieved, so they all agreed with Daves' decision one after another.
At this time, someone said loudly: "His Majesty King Daves, the Celtics in the north are what you call terrible forces that depend on pillage for their livelihoods. They invaded the Latham area 20 years ago. Now they are active in the north again. It is said that the former Celtic king Brunus had never forgotten his failure in Rome before his death, and repeatedly warned the leaders around him to avenge him. Maybe a few years later, Kay The Alters will make a comeback again. I'm afraid we all need to be prepared for this. What is your opinion on this?"
As soon as these words came out, all the messengers present calmed down. Although the Celtic invasion took place 20 years ago, because the war lasted for a year, all the forces of Latham were affected to some extent, so they were very impressed.
Daves followed the prestige, and the speaker was an emissary from the city of Fufluna. Fofluna is one of the twelve Etruscan city-state alliances. This time it represents the northern Etruscan city-states that are not allied with Dionia. They came to Rome. Because of these northern Etruscan cities Between the city-state and the Latham territory controlled by Dionia, there is a southern Etruscan city-state that has just formed an alliance with Dionia, such as Tarzuna and Volch. Daves had been speculating about their conflict of interest, but now he finally realized it.
"I have already said that no force must destroy the peace and tranquility of this land!" Daves said without hesitation: "As long as the Walts dare to invade the territories of Walch and Tarjuna. , Dionia will surely gather a large army, cross the Tiber River, help the allies, and repel the Celtics!"
The messenger Fofluna was taken aback and blurted out: "What about northern Etruscan? The Celtics attacked northern Etruscan. If Dionia ignores it, the situation will be very bad! The terrain of Truria is flat. In recent years, the northern Etruscan city-states have only relied on the mountains on its northern border, and they have barely contained the Celtic invasion. The city-states in northern Asia are difficult to resist. Once the Celtics gain a foothold in the north, its attack on the south will be easier and more fierce! At that time, the cruel Celtics will Attack on Rome and Latham again, and avenge their old King Brunus!"
Davers looked embarrassed and hesitated and said: "What you said is very reasonable, but Dionia has no diplomatic contact with your northern Etruscan city-states, even if Dionia wants to To rescue, do not dare to lead troops into your territory, lest the Etruscan people will think that the Dionians, like the Celtics, are also invaders."
The messenger of Fofluna heard what Daves said, and immediately stood up, saluted Daves respectfully, and said: "As long as Dionia is willing to help us Etruscans against Celtic People, our northern Etruscan city-state is willing to form an alliance with Dionia!"
Davers lightly chin his head and said loudly: "The northern Etruscan city-states are willing to form an alliance with Dionia. This is a very good thing. I am very welcome! After the banquet is over, you too Like other envoys, we can discuss the alliance with our diplomat Tapirus. As I said, Dionia came here to make friends. We are very willing to make friends with the Latham area and the Etruscan area. New friends in Asia and other regions work together to resist foreign enemies! Together to defend the peace of our homeland!"
"My lord, what you said is great!" Catel Montaros of Wolsey raised his glass, stood up again, and exclaimed excitedly: "I propose that we respect the honorable King Dionia together. , Thank him for bringing peace to us!"
Katai Montaros' proposal was immediately responded to by other envoys.
Davers smiled and toasted with them.
Tapirus accompanied him to finish the glass of wine, feeling very excited, although he will be very busy next, but this kind of busyness reflects the value of a diplomat, and he has been in the Latham area for half a year. He can finally show his talents.
After the messenger of Fofluna sat down, he let out a sigh of relief.
What he just said is not entirely true. Since the Celtics invaded southward 20 years ago, the power of the Etruscan city-states has been greatly weakened, and the northern city-states have been even more serious, because these years Although the Celtics never assembled their army to go south, small-scale incursions were frequent. The northern city-states initially helped each other and defended together, but the repeated failures caused them to fight separately and try their best to support them. So when Rome attacked the southern Etruscan city-states, the northern city-states could only watch them being forced to surrender to Rome because they were too busy to take care of themselves and there was no room to reinforce the southern city.
