The most feared thing Adoris grew up with was Daves, Cynthia. Seeing Cynthia's face hesitated, he didn't dare to talk anymore, drank a big sip of wine, and said, "Sister...I want to Go and plead with my mother, and ask her to help me tell my father to change my army to the First Army!"
"Do you want to go to Wolsey?!" After listening to Adoris, Cynthia immediately understood his intention. These days, while treating the wounded soldiers of the First Corps, dealing with the remains of the dead, and comforting their families, the Ministry of Military Affairs is also selecting reserve soldiers to be sent to Volsey to make up for the vacancies in the First Corps. Cynthia is because of Patroclus. Serving in the First Army, of course, also knows something about it.
"Isn’t the first army fighting in the kingdom’s army now, and they are in short supply of soldiers. I’m fine in Turiyi now, so I can help your husband Patroclus. ." Adoris said seemingly relaxed.
"Your brother-in-law doesn't need your help!" Cynthia said straightforwardly. How could she not know that Adoris has a normal relationship with her husband? This is a complete excuse. And this time in the northern war, the First Corps suffered a lot of casualties, and even the middle and senior team officers were killed in the battle. Cynthia was frightened when she heard the news. She prayed for Patroclus every day, and even hated that she did not have the blood of Hades. , Unable to provide more protection for her husband. However, Cynthia did not ask her father to transfer Patroclus back to Turrii, because she knew that as the king's son-in-law, Patroclus' every move attracted attention, and it was impossible for her father to agree to her request.
So, just when Cynthia was worried about Patroclus, her own brother had to take the initiative to ask to go to the dangerous place of Wolsey. How could she not feel a little angry, she warned him: "Ado Reese, you have to study like Croto, stay in Turie with peace of mind, and don't let your parents worry about it!"
"I can't compare with Klo, he can be busy in the military department, and I am 21 years old, and I can only wander around Turri every day." Adonis complained.
"That's because my father has arranged several positions in the military department for you, but you don't want to go!" Cynthia reprimanded with a hatred of iron and steel.
"It’s not that you don’t know. I have a headache when I see the words and numbers. Those who look at me with strange eyes know that I, Adoris, is not a person who can only rely on his father's prestige to live a mediocre life!" Adoris exclaimed excitedly.
Cynthia heard his inner sorrow from his words. She hadn't really thought that her brother, who is usually impulsive and reckless, would have such thoughts, and she was a little silent for a while.
After a while, she looked at Adoris with a little pity in her eyes, and asked softly: "This is how you went to the household registration department not long ago and changed your name to Marcellis Addo. Reese's reason?"
“Our biological father’s name must be inherited (referring to Adoris and Cynthia’s biological father, former Archon Marcellis of Amendorara), and the father also knows it, listen to my mother , He has no objection." Adonis explained: "I use this name, at least in the army to reduce some unnecessary attention."
"I hope you don't regret it in the future." Cynthia sighed. Indeed, any general or team officer who sees Daves Adoris’s name on the roster of soldiers will be shocked, because there is only one family in the kingdom with this surname, so it will naturally be against Ah. Doris doubled his attention.
Cynthia stared at Adoris's slightly immature face: It takes a lot of courage to abandon this great surname, which shows that Adoris has indeed made a lot of determination!
Thinking of this, Cynthia said softly, "I will go to my mother to help you persuade. But I suggest you have a good talk with your father to let him understand your true inner thoughts. Anyway, my father has always He loves us, he is worried about our safety, as long as he understands your true inner thoughts, I think he will have better arrangements for you."
Adoris was silent: Since childhood, he was afraid of seeing Davers, perhaps because he had always pretended to be his real father in his heart, and he didn’t really regard Davers as his father, so he always Once I saw Davers, I always felt guilty in my heart.
Seeing that he was hesitating, Cynthia reminded him, "Actually, you don’t need to change your affiliation so frequently. Alas, I heard that there is going to be a war with Carthage. I believe you belong. The Second Army will be sent to the front soon."
Adoris moved in his heart, but said in his mouth: "Who knows how long the cowardly Carthaginians will have to wait before they act."
The two chatted for a while. Cynthia's close-knit slave appeared at the door of the living room. Seeing her look panicked, Cynthia asked, "What's the matter?"
The slave girl hurriedly came to Cynthia and whispered a few words.
After hearing this, Cynthia sighed: "Adoris, there is news from the city of Turri that the Carthaginians sent an army to Sicily."
………………………………………
On the day of January 1, 2014 in the Kingdom of Dionia (379 BC), the sea from the western end of Sicily to Carthage was very lively.
More than 300 warships were divided into two teams and lined up in the offshore waters on both sides of the western end of Sicily to prevent a surprise attack by the Dionian fleet. The sea between the two fleets was filled with thousands of ships. They shuttled back and forth between Carthage and Lili from the morning, constantly transporting soldiers, horses, grain, and grass to Sicily. Baggage...
Since the establishment of the city, Lilibo has never been as lively and busy as it is today. Many ports are filled with ships, the docks are full of soldiers and unloaded goods, roads are congested, and people are full of voices. . Fortunately, Lilibo is different from the previous Motia. It existed as a Carthage’s military center in Sicily from the beginning. Therefore, its ports and roads were built in accordance with military standards. The Chief Executive has always been held by military generals instead of administrative officials.
In the semi-militarized city of Lilibe, almost all the people in the city began to take action with the order from the lord of the semi-militarized city. The problem was solved, and the entire login process gradually became smoother...
The troops after the landing were quickly taken to the military camp outside Lilifa. This was built when Margo was the highest military commander in Sicily. Lilifa recently repaired it again.
And this time, Monte Adeno, the supreme commander of the Carthage army, is with Hanno’s son-in-law, Millefio, at the mansion of the lord of Lilivar, while listening to the lord of Lilivar Semimre reporting that the army has landed Progress, while tasting wine and food.
"Semimre-sama." Millefio suddenly interrupted his report and asked, "Are they not here yet?"
After Margot was removed from Sicily, Hanno quickly replaced several important colonial cities of Carthage in Sicily with his own people. Semimre was one of them. Of course he knew Millefy Who is O’s "they" referring to, he immediately replied: "I haven't received any news of their arrival yet."
"General, shouldn't they miss an appointment?!" Millefio reminded.
"Don't worry, Margo is quite trustworthy. Since he says he will send an army, he generally won't break his promise. If he doesn't come, Lord Hanno will take care of it, so we don't have to worry about it." Ardno didn't care too much about it, but instead focused on the wine glass in his hand: "This wine tastes mellow and smooth, where is it produced?"
"...This is Turriy's wine." Semimre replied a little embarrassed. He thought Montratno would be dissatisfied, but the 50-year-old commander was surprised. "The Turiyi wine I've drunk before is not as good as this time. Could it be that they have improved the winemaking process?!"
While speaking, he raised his glass again, took a sip, and sipped the tea carefully, and sighed: "It's really a big difference from the past! It's a pity! Now we are fighting with Dionia, it's estimated to be so You can’t drink good wine!"
Semimre said immediately: "General, since you love to drink this wine so much, I still have a lot of cans there. I will ask the servant to send you to the barracks later."
Montelatno did not refuse, and repeatedly expressed his gratitude.
Milafio met by the side and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "General, when we defeat Dionian, you can directly order the Dionian to send you these wines. , Wouldn’t it be more convenient!"
Monte Arderno covered his long beard and laughed: "This is a good idea! However, I heard that King Davers has a tough temper. If he wants him to send the wine obediently, he must be thorough. It’s enough to beat Dionia. Dionia is a powerful kingdom, and it will be a long war. We don’t have to worry too much!"
……………………………………
While the Monte Arderno was tasting the wine, the "they" mentioned by Millefio were riding on a battleship, leading a huge fleet towards the northeast. Sailing in the direction of Sicily.
"Has Druba, I heard that this time the commander of the Carthage army is Monte Arderno, are you familiar with him?" Kisgor asked.
"It's just a Hanno's dog." Hasdruba curled his lips contemptuously: "In the Senate, he only knows to lash out at our Magonis family to please Hanno. This is what he can The reason for being the commander-in-chief of the army."
