Daves took out a roll of sandpaper from his arms and sneered: "Turiyi people are really forgetful! Fortunately, I still have one here!" As he said, he passed the roll of paper, and the veterans passed it to each other. Look, it really says Daves’ promise of freedom to slaves, and the signature of Burkos as a witness, as well as the signatures of General Turrii, Kunogolata and Neonsis.

At that time, in order to keep the mercenaries from leaving the Subari Plain and stick to the camp, the generals of Turiyi tried their best to agree to any conditions. According to their experience, mercenaries may not be able to hold on for a long time. If they can consume a little more Lucanians, they will consume a little more. The two thousand slaves will be regarded as meat buns and dogs. Dare to take the initiative to attack the enemy and win.

Neonsis, who is known for his careful planning, is now in power. Of course, he is not willing to turn these more than one thousand slaves into free people. The key is also an important point: if these slaves are converted into free people, what about the other miner slaves? They will definitely have ideas. Don't forget that there are eight or nine thousand mining slaves. Once there is a commotion, it will be difficult to deal with the current number of citizens in Tury. Not to mention that there are still a group of free people at the port who are still arguing for citizenship rights in Turri.

So when the paper roll passed into Plycinus's hands, he didn't even look at it. He bit the bullet and tore the paper roll to pieces with both hands: "This is fake! This is fake!"

This rogue's arrogant behavior immediately angered everyone present. The fiery-tempered Scombras rushed over first, grabbed Plycinus, punched directly, and yelled:" I tell you to tear it! I tell you to tear it! Turiyi who is not trustworthy! Turiyi who should go to hell!"

One punch, two punches... If it weren't for someone else to pull Scombras away in time, Plycinus would have been delirious. At this moment, he cried out in fear: "Kill! Kill! Amen Is Dorara going to war with Turiyi?!!!"

"Knock him out of Amendorara! Don't forget to stuff him all the silver coins that the mining slaves who fled to Amendorara should be ransomed, lest Turey says we steal their property." Daves said in disgust.

"Yes!" Melses replied bitterly: "However, maybe the money is not enough."

Davers thought for a while and said, "Then write an IOU in the name of the Amendorara Senate, and we will pay it back when we have money."

"But, in this way, the other slaves who participated in the war will probably all run to Amendorara!" Cornelus reminded.

"Let them come, then. They helped us win the war with the Lucanians. They paid their blood and lives. The impartial Hades is here, and I hope we can fulfill our vows to him." Daves said solemnly.

"That's really cheap for the Tury!" Melses said irritably.

"Breaching the vows made to the gods, the punishments of the gods will always be brought." Daves said lightly, turned back to Aristocrates who was shocked by the scene just now, and said: "Now you Free, you can go wherever you want."

Aristocrates did not expect that the result they wanted would come so quickly, and his whole body trembled with excitement: "Thank you, sir! We...will stay in Amendola...and...I am personally willing to repay Amendor. Lara paid for our freedom!"

Davers stared at him, saw him speak sincerely, nodded appreciatively: "Okay!"

………………………………

Plessinus returned to Turri and naturally publicized Amendorara's "evil deeds" greatly, in order to arouse the anger of the people.

Of course, Amendorara also has countermeasures. They spread what happened in the Senate that day to the Turei people through the mouth of the Turri patients who came to Amendorara to see a doctor.

For a time, the people of Turiyi couldn't tell whether the two versions of the story were true or false.

But Turri’s city hall quickly took action, and they strongly demanded: Amendorara immediately send the fugitive slaves back, otherwise it would be Amendora’s breach of the covenant, Turri will never sit idly by.

The Amendorara Senate rejected it and reminded Turiyi that it should fulfill the promise made at the time and give Turiyi's benefactors (ie slaves participating in the war) freedom.

Turiyi went on to announce: The people of this city are forbidden to go to Amendorara. Foreign merchants who go to Amendorara will have to charge heavy taxes when they come to Turiyi to trade.

Because Amendorara’s storage base has not been established, there are almost no merchants going to Amendorara, but there are many foreign patients, which has little impact on Amendorara’s negligible trade. But Amendorara still took action. They arranged the military training of the civic soldiers on the Saraceno River, which made it so powerful that it made the Turian people and slaves who were farming in the Subari Plain feel nervous.

Turiyi City Hall took no further action except to protest to Amendora Rati, and the two sides suddenly remained silent.

For Daves, he didn’t want to have a stalemate with Turri, but when things got so close, he had to make a choice: choosing Turri would help him attack Luca in the future. Nia’s plan had to destroy the promise he had made before. Choosing to liberate the slaves fulfilled his promise, but it might endanger the alliance with Turri. Daves believes that the destruction of the alliance with Turri can be made up in the future, but once the promise is destroyed, the bad impression left on the Greeks is difficult to eliminate, even if the promise is only for slaves. Keeping his promises is related to his integrity, and even more to Amendorara's integrity. Because many new laws issued by Amendorara now have to rely on the trust of the people and outsiders to be realized, they must be convinced that Amendorara will keep his promises under any circumstances, so this is Amendorara. The foundation of Nippon!

And just when the relationship between Amendorara and Turri was at a stalemate, Turri city came to a guest-Crotone's messenger.

…………………………

At the end of June, the Amendorara Senate met to discuss the holding of a trial competition to select athletes to participate in the isthmus competition in the next summer of the Olympia Games. This is one of the four world-famous Pan-Hellenic competitions, although there is no The Olympia Games are so old and they are also attracting attention. Davos and the Senate hope that the athletes will show the new Amendorara to the Greek city-states.

Davers even considered going to Corinth with the selected athletes (because Corinth is the venue of the Isthmus Games). In his previous life, he had no money or time to watch the Olympics, but in this era, he can be a guest of honor and enjoy the most authentic classical games.

Just as the veterans were happily discussing how to hold this trial, an amazing news came: something big happened in Turiyi City!

It turned out that the messenger of Crotone came to Turri to ask the crime. He claimed that Turri’s previous construction of the city on the old site of Sybaris violated the agreement signed with Crotone.

Neonsis and the others hurriedly explained: Because the Lucanians were aggressively attacking, Turri had no choice but to let the mercenaries temporarily build a camp there, which was soon removed...

But Crotone’s messenger refused to accept this reason and insisted that Turri had violated the agreement. If he does not want to cause serious consequences for the relationship between the two countries, he must compensate for this behavior. In fact, the real reason for the envoy to inquire Turriy was: After Crotone ended his war with the Bruti, his treasury consumed a large amount of money and materials. Someone in the city council made such a suggestion. In addition, this At that time Turri's strength was greatly weakened, so the Crotone people believed that Turri should not risk offending Crotone’s strong state and veto Crotone’s request. The maximum amount of compensation would be in the amount of compensation. There is a dispute, but then you can bargain. So Crotone's messenger issued a huge list of compensation.

Turiyi’s generals saw this list and immediately understood: Crotone was not here to inquire, but to blackmail!

Suddenly, the generals clamored, especially after Neonsis became the chief general. Although he looked at the problem more comprehensively, his prudent nature has not changed. He did not hesitate to have a stalemate with Amendorara. I would like to turn thousands of city-state slaves into free people, and naturally I don't want to accept Crotone's blackmail. Therefore, he said to the messenger: "The Turíy Council needs to discuss the matter collectively before giving Crotone a reply."

After the messenger left, he immediately asked Plessinas to secretly inform the people of the incident, inciting them to protest in the hotel where the messenger stayed. The purpose of Neonsis is: first, to allow the messenger to see the anger and determination of the Tutuuri people, and to create conditions for the following negotiations; second, even if a compensation agreement is signed in the future, it can also reduce the people’s dissatisfaction. The accusation of the city hall.

Neonsis’s abacus was very good, but it never expected that the people of Turei would become more crazy and irrational after experiencing the last expulsion of Kuno Gorata, let alone those who are interested. Driven by, Plessinas was not able to control it at all.

These interested people are descendants of the Sybaris. A hundred years ago, Crotone defeated Subaris and tore down the city of Subaris. The Sybaris who lost their homes rebuilt the city of Subaris a few years later and quickly made it prosperous again. After Crotone knew, he sent troops again to capture Sybaris and completely destroyed the city. The exiled Sybaris had no choice but to seek help from the native Greek city-states. In the end, Pericles of Athens responded to their request and called on all the Greeks to rebuild Sybaris. So the elite of Athens and immigrants from various places flocked to build Turii on the Subari Plain. But soon afterwards, the Sybaris clashed with Athens and other immigrants, because the Sybaris wanted Turri to become the Turri of the Asbaris, which of course was not accepted by other immigrants, and it eventually happened. There was a **** clash, and the Sybaris were expelled. However, the Subaris were local snakes after all, so a few people stayed secretly. In the hearts of these people, Crotone is the enemy of life and death who destroyed their homeland and reduced them to such a situation. They passed on this hatred. When the opportunity arises, how can the descendants of the Subaris let go? .

Thousands of crazy people could not be blocked by a few soldiers. They rushed into the hotel and beat the messenger of Crotone. When Neonsis heard the news and arrived with the guards, This messenger has become the dead.
