Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece Chapter 52: Election of district chief executives (6)
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Mediterranean Overlord of Ancient Greece!
Amintas's reason is simple and rude-more than seniority.
Daves was surprised because if this was a joint decision of the veterans of the military, someone would have told him in advance that if there was no, then this may have been a private decision of Amintas: Could it be Amintas, who was not interested in the Senate meetings in the past, was very quiet after launching active service in the army, and wanted to develop in the Senate? !
Of course, Agarcia and Amintas were close friends during the expedition to Persia, and they have been in close contact over the years. It is understandable that Amintas wants to help his friends. However, many mercenaries have turned to political development, Hilos, Capus, Sesta, Adrianx... Agarcia is one of the more inconspicuous, and he has served too many times over the years. The chief executive of the sub-towns has always been quite well-behaved and did not have very impressive political achievements. Therefore, Daves does not think that he can manage the most war-torn area and lead the people on the south coast of Sicily and West Kyle. People get out of the predicament after the war as soon as possible...
Of course, everything can’t be absolute, and Agarcia is an old subordinate of Daves after all. He has always been diligent and diligent in completing the tasks assigned to him, so he does not intend to stop it: However, Amintas thought he With a scream, the military veterans and other elders who have been friends with him will support him. That would be a big mistake.
The Kingdom of Dionia has been established for nearly 20 years. There are nearly a hundred veterans from the army, each with its own interests and demands. It is not time for the first mercenary veterans to respond to each other, even the elders. The navy with the smallest number can not be completely united, and sometimes it will be divided into two factions, Sekelian and Midolades, not to mention the large army. Up-and-coming stars such as Proseus and Printors do not mix with the mercenary veterans at all; and new veterans such as Patroclus and Sextus will not treat the old people. Followed by words; generals from other regions such as Lizaru and Ulaza also have their own ethnic demands; even the mercenary veterans themselves are not monolithic, the differences between the military and the generals, the differences in personality and style of work (such as Alexis and Amintas)...This is exactly what Daves hopes, because only he can unite the military veterans. If they can twist into a rope by themselves, then they should wear it. Firth was worried.
Saru, who stood up for the second time, was still the recommended Hegecitus.
Daves still recognizes Hegecitus' abilities, but Saru recommends it at this time. Is it confident that he can beat the military veterans? It is still said that Sedorum, who was behind him, saw that Amintas was acting like a tiger, and believed that the southern coast of Sicily was small in land and sparsely populated, and involved complex issues such as post-war reconstruction and the integration of the Western Kyle people in the mountainous area. , So it is not attractive to some veterans, and the competition will not be too fierce?
Davers glanced at Sedorum in the front row of the venue: This old guy is quite shrewd and knows how to squeeze persimmons, but is it really as he wants?
Davers leaned back in the seat, watching the development of things with interest.
Sure enough, there were very few recommenders afterwards, but just as the etiquette officer was about to announce the start of the voting, a shout came from behind him: "Wait a minute, I also have someone to recommend!"
There was an uproar in the venue.
Anta Auris stood up and said frankly: "The law does not stipulate that the rotating chairperson in charge of the meeting has no right to be elected."
Oh, this is interesting! ...Daves stroked his chin with his hand, guessing in his heart the candidate he would recommend, ready to watch the show.
Anta Auris cleared his throat, straightened his chest, and said loudly, "The person I want to recommend is Crelu!"
Krelu, who was sitting in the meeting room, was stunned when he heard this, because he had not agreed with Anta Auris in advance, and had no idea that the rotating chairman would recommend him. Originally, he really coveted the position of the chief executive of the south coast of Sicily, and even prepared to recommend himself, but after seeing that Amintas and Saru had recommended candidates, he thought that he had little chance of winning, so he chose to give up. It turned again.
"Master Kleiro served as the chief of town for the first time. It was in Knapetia. After that, he has been in the mountains of Sicily. He has been in the four years of Hena and Enna. He has always had a relatively good political performance and won the West. The trust of the Kyle. We all know that most of the territory of the south coast of Sicily is in the mountains, and the population is also dominated by the Western Kyle. If the problem of the Western Kyle is solved, the problem in the southern area of Sicily will be solved. Leilu is the best candidate."
Daves nodded secretly, thinking that Anta Auris was right, and to be honest, he really forgot about Crayru.
Sedorum was a little fidgeted: first Breru, now Kreru, one after another Visignans embarrassed him and made other elders look at his own jokes, even though Bisignia has long been Belongs to Tury, but they are still Bruti. Especially Kleiru, who used to be close to Bajilippi and didn’t interact with himself very much, but now he is the leader of the Bruti and the rotating chairman of the Senate. If you want to participate in the election, why not be with yourself? Say it, let this guy intervene!
Sedorum looked at Anta Auris standing behind the rostrum, and felt frustrated: Anta Auris does everything he likes, and he can be in the presence of many veterans in the venue. To refute someone with no self-confidence, or to recommend the person as the chief executive of the town when he feels that he is suitable and fully recommended. Although he has no faction, many elders have recognized him during the years as the rotating chairman and have him do it. Recommended, Hegecitus may not be able to win.
Just when Sedorum was depressed, the debate in the venue had begun: "Kleiro has been in Hena for 4 years, then in Enna for four years, and has been in the same area for 8 years. Years, this has exceeded the number of years, and should not come to participate in the competition for the chief executive of the southern region of Sicily."
"You have to figure out that in the district administrative plan done by your majesty last time, Herna was included in the Catania region, so there is no problem at all!"
"Southern Sicily has mountainous areas as well as many seaside towns. Master Kleiro has been in mountainous areas in the past, and he is obviously inexperienced in how to manage seaside towns..."
"As the patriarch of the kingdom, you didn’t even figure out the geography of the country. I’m really ashamed of you! Isn’t Knapetia a seaside town? It was during the Krelu administration that Knapeti The port of Asia has been expanded, and the maritime trade has also been developed...From these we can see that he has experience in managing coastal towns..."
……
Anta Auris refuted all the elders who had given their opinions speechless, which also helped the final election of Crelu.
Of course, it is also related to Breru’s good performance in the Western Mediterranean War. He not only cooperated with the generals such as Alexis, Lizaru, Epithenes..., but also actively cooperated with the West after the war. Prosperity, Milon, and Adrianx rectified and governed the Western Kyle. These elders not only voted for him, but also drove other people to support him.
When the results of the voting were announced, Crelu was both surprised and delighted. The whole expression looked a little funny, but the result was actually mainly due to his own efforts.
Amintas is a little upset, but Agarcia feels a little indifferent. He was once a poor mercenary, but now he is a noble elder of the kingdom. He governs towns of thousands or tens of thousands of people, and he is more powerful than the chief of a city-state. The general is even bigger, he is very satisfied. Of course, this is also related to his getting older, his energy loss, and his heart of enjoyment getting heavier.
Hegecitus was frustrated that he lost the election again, but the election continued: "The next area to be elected is Downey!"
Finally it's Great Greece's turn! The elders sat up straight again. Pregulos, the commander of the Fourth Cavalry Regiment who stood up first: "I recommend Torex..."
Plegules is a Mesapi. He does not recommend Apirosia, the head of his race, but recommends the head of Puchetti, but this is not surprising, because everyone knows that he and Apirosia The reason for the discord between Pirosia is simple: when the Dionian army aggressively attacked the Mesapi territory, Apirosia, the leader of the Udiah tribe, was the first to lead the tribe to surrender early. The Shaomesapi tribe learned from it, and the conquest of the entire Mesapi became much easier, and Plegules, who was still in the fight at the time, hated Apirusia. Even after more than ten years, the two sides He is already a colleague of the kingdom, and this resentment has not completely disappeared. Therefore, Plegules is unwilling to interact with the elders of Mesapi, headed by Apirosia, and is more willing to fight with the common people who have fought together and were of the same race. Chedi people come and go.
Of course, most elders don’t care about the grievances between Pregules and Apirosia. What they care about is the recommended Torex. He has served as chief of towns and towns, and his performance is quite satisfactory. There is no amazing political achievement, but he has a good son-in-law, Marcellis Adoris, whose former name is Daves Adoris, the adopted son of King Daves. It is reported that His Majesty the King is very kind to this adopted son. Concerned about him, he is about to be promoted to the captain of the legion at a young age. In the past, the veterans considered Tonics’ special identity and tried his best to give him convenience without conflict of interest. At this time, they all subconsciously He cast his gaze to King Daves in the center of the venue.
