lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Mediterranean Overlord of Ancient Greece!

Daves, sitting on the throne, announced loudly: “You don’t need to worry about food at all, because Dionia has become an alliance with Egypt, and Egyptian pharaoh Nekhtanibu promised to continue to provide free assistance. Dionia has a large amount of wheat until the autumn harvest. The first batch of grains is nearly 100,000 tons, and the fleet has been transported from Egypt."

When the members heard the news, they all cheered in unison, their faces were full of joy, and some even shouted in excitement: "The kingdom is victorious! The king of Davos is victorious!" Because they knew that this natural disaster would affect Dior. There is no longer any threat to the people in the towns of the Kingdom of Nia.

In such a festive atmosphere, Secretary of State Hiros began to talk about the military situation and daily military affairs of the kingdom last year. He focused on reporting on the formation and training of the 11th Army and the construction of the barracks. For this reason, he was right. Thanks for the active cooperation of the cities and towns in Nepal.

Next, he talked about the reasons for the two wars that took place last year: from the Kautini’s repeated violations of the covenant and the invasion of the Ally of Dionia, the Campania Alliance, and the Campania Envoy When they came to Turrii for help, the Dionian envoy went to Kautim to stop the battle and was rejected. In the end, the kingdom had to send the Third Army to smash Kautini's attempt to invade the Campania Alliance...

Then he talked about the long-term support and assistance of the Carthaginians to Rome, the sinister purpose contained in this move, and the large-scale attack on Wolsey by Rome. Under Wolsey’s request, why did Dionia form an alliance with it and sent troops to support it, and also briefly described the whole process of Wolsey’s battle...

The focus of Hiros’s narration is at the end. He loudly reminded everyone in the venue: “Because Carthage took the initiative to tear up the friendly agreement with Dionia and declared that as long as Dionia and Rome go to war, it It will declare war on Dionia. According to intelligence, Carthage is actively preparing for war, so this year’s war with Carthage will inevitably occur!"

After Silos finished speaking, the venue was fairly calm. After all, most of these town councilors were well-informed and were always paying attention to major events that took place in Turri. Not to mention that after they arrived in Turri, they would usually visit first. The elders of the town had received some information about the conference in advance, so they did not blame the two wars that Dionia participated in and the possible war with Carthage. On the contrary, they are more concerned about the impact this upcoming war will have on their towns.

For example: Members of Enona and Kopsa worry that once the upcoming war breaks the peace between Dionia and the surrounding forces, the Samonais who have already broken face with Dionia will not They will take the opportunity to launch an offensive to the entire western area of ​​Campania. Although the Third Army is now stationed in the Campania Alliance, they still hope that the Ministry of Military Affairs can continue to strengthen the defense in this area.

Members from the Dawney region have the same idea. They think: Compared with the tightly defensive northwestern border of Dionian, the military power of the Dawney region, which has just been merged into Dionian, is weak. I am afraid that it will become the focus of the Samoneite offensive, and the Ministry of Military Affairs must pay attention to it.

Members from Sicily were more straightforward, because at this time Dionia had already begun war mobilization in the Sicilian territory. They believed that if the Carthage army came, the Sicilian army alone would not be enough to resist. , I hope to send more legions to Sicily.

The councillors of Hera and Herbita brought some suggestions from the Westkel tribe: they hope to join the Kingdom of Dionia and gain fertile land by winning battles through the coming war.

Of course, more town councilors called for a delay in the assembly of soldiers from various legions to ensure the smooth progress of spring planting.

……

Of course, for the active questions and suggestions of the members of the conference hall, King Daves and his ministers in the center of the conference hall do not need to reply immediately. The clerks of the conference hall will record their suggestions. These will be In the next few days, the senators and parliamentarians discussed the issues together, found a solution, and formed the final proposal. After being passed by a majority at the conference, it was signed by King Daves before finally forming a new bill in the kingdom. Implement.

The newly promoted elders Alcibedas and Phidun participated in the Kingdom Assembly for the first time. Since Lijim has just merged into the Kingdom of Dionia, the city council members and civic guards have not yet been elected , Let alone elect representatives to participate in this conference, so the two of them are completely unfamiliar with the conference process and did not make any preparations at all.

And the two of them also witnessed the opening of the conference, the ministers of the Kingdom talked about the work of each department for a year, the questions of the parliamentarians, and the fierce disputes and compromises between the parliamentarians in the following days, and finally reached The various proposals made by ... these have opened the eyes of the two, especially Feidun, who could not help but sigh loudly: "The Dionians have created a great political system that can facilitate centralized management of vast territories, but also We can try our best to satisfy the democratic expression of each town's demands. How can such a country not become prosperous and powerful!"

Alsibidas couldn't help but say: "It is said that this system was initiated and formulated by my brother-in-law!"

"It is the luck of the Kingdom of Dionia to have a wise and magical king!" Feidun once again admired Alcibidas, who was a relative, could not help but feel proud. He said excitedly: "Lucky The thing is that we have also become Dionians!"

Fidun said sternly: "This is the most correct thing we Lijim have done in the past ten years!"

On the second day when members of the assembly were having heated discussions, Daves came to the city council of Turri. Compared with other cities, Turri had the largest population and the largest number of councillors, so it was a natural council. The hall is also the largest, able to accommodate four to five hundred people, and the annual meeting of the Kingdom Guardians is held here.

Daves made the opening speech, sincerely thanking the civic officers for their contributions to maintaining the security, stability and fairness of the entire kingdom in the past year.

Then the Supreme Inspector Sesta briefly summarized the general situation of the public security officers' exposure of violations of laws and disciplines in various cities last year and the protection of the interests of the people, and then focused on some of the bribery that they cooperated with the Ministry of Supervision to resolve. At the end of the case, ten outstanding civic guards and their outstanding deeds were named and commended last year.

The ten patriarchs from various towns in the kingdom, who had been notified in advance, walked to the center of the venue, and Daves personally put the medal on their Bolton.

This is a small buckle made of silver and carved into the shape of a beautiful snake head whip. The originality comes from the nickname of the guardian. They are called "the whip of the kingdom" by the people, that is, supervising and whipping those The meaning of outlaws. This is the highest honor the civic officers have received, so when they stepped onto the stage, they were all excited to accept King Dafus’ congratulations.

Different from the assembly of councillors, the assembly of civic officials is where the civic officials play the leading role. The rest of the time is for them to take the stage and talk about the situation, problems, and suggestions of their city one by one. Most of them come from towns and villages, and they are more accustomed to discovering and looking at problems from the perspective of the people. This is of great help to Davers, the ministers, and the Senate to have a more comprehensive understanding of the situation at the grassroots of the kingdom, so the clerks are serious. It records the speeches of every guardian officer, and some of their useful suggestions will be summarized in the Senate for discussion.

At the end of this day's meeting, Daves once again thanked the patriarch for his contribution to the kingdom, and reminded them: In this new year, the kingdom is very likely to break out of a major war! During the war, it is very important to ensure the stability of the kingdom!

He hopes that the guardians can assist the local officials to manage the place, be alert to suspicious strangers, and prevent turmoil. At the same time, we must also help the families of citizens who are serving in the conquest and safeguard their interests... Whether the whole country can work together to defeat the enemy depends on their efforts!

The patriarchs who Daves said were full of enthusiasm. They made promises to the king one by one, and they also wanted to bring this promise back to their colleagues in their city.

………………………………………

Just as Daves united the knowledge of the people in the cities of the Kingdom through these two conferences held in the New Year, and was ready to deal with the upcoming war with all his strength, he was at the residence of Patroclus on the south bank of the River Kraty. , Cynthia is receiving Adoris who came to visit her. She asked the chef to cook good dishes and prepare good wines to entertain her own brother.

"Sister, don't you really want to eat a little bit? This fish tastes good!" Adoris ate the food, and asked casually.

Cynthia touched her abdomen, shook her head, and said, "I see fish and meat, so I just want to vomit. Kristia’s mother sent a chef to cook me dishes suitable for pregnant women."

"Mother is really nice to you!" Adoris exclaimed.

"Didn't your parents treat you badly!" Cynthia asked rhetorically.

Adoris was speechless for a while, and quickly immersed himself in eating.

Cynthia looked at her and suddenly asked: "Usually you are busy training in the barracks, and you rarely even go home. Why are you free to come to me today? Is there anything wrong?"

Cynthia’s sudden questioning made Adoris stunned. He was obviously not ready, and he said falteringly: "No...nothing, I just heard... I heard that you are pregnant, come and take a look. You."

Cynthia straightened her face immediately and took out her elder sister's prestige: "I'm your sister, I don't know what you are thinking! Don't chirp, talk about it!"
