lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Mediterranean Overlord of Ancient Greece!
Puamote saw the rows of soldiers from the Dionian Legion with their heads upright, passing in front of him, and couldn't help but admire: "What a mighty army! Dionian has so many brave soldiers. , Who else would dare to invade! No wonder the Samonais are not your opponents, Lord Daves!"
"Puamote, Samona's army was repelled by brave warriors led by the brave Potentia leaders." Daves said modestly.
"Master Daves, if you hadn’t led your army to wipe out the reinforcements sent by the Samonais to Poseidonia, and then made a careful plan to send soldiers to sneak into the enemy’s camp, disrupt the enemy, and send your men. Contact us and persuade us to carry out a night attack...On our own alone, how can we have the ability to repel so many fierce Samonaes!" Polett said bluntly.
"You and I shouldn't be humbly with each other! Being able to win such a victory and restore peace to this land is the result of the unity and cooperation of Dionia and Potentia!" Davers Finally, he said like a summary.
"Yes, thank God Asinu! Potentia is very fortunate to join the League of Dionia. Without Dionia's full assistance, there would be no Potentia today! Potentia Yaren will always remember this kindness!" Puamote sighed from the bottom of his heart.
Other leaders also expressed their gratitude to Daves.
"Master Daves, we have prepared a camp for your army, which is close to Potentia City. It was a settlement of a tribe before. Because of the rush of time, we did not fully clean up. There are some The house was destroyed by the Samoneites." Pollet said, following the Dionian army these days, he knew what Daves needed most at this time.
"Thank you so much, this has solved our big problem!" Davers was overjoyed, and then said: "It doesn't matter if the camp is dilapidated, but these torches will be borrowed from us in time."
"Master Daves, tonight we also prepared a welcome banquet for you and your soldiers to celebrate the coming of victory together. When you set up camp, our people will carry hundreds of cattle and sheep, There is wine to your camp..." Puamote saw that the atmosphere was very good, so he said loudly, but when he was halfway through the words, Daves interrupted him tactfully: "Puamote, and everyone Chief, I am very grateful for your kind invitation and your friendship with Dionia! But I heard that this time the Samoneite invasion has caused you great losses. Villages and farmlands were burned and many people Being slaughtered or captured, and losing a lot of livestock... You are all a little tight on food supply now, and you are still taking food out to reward us, do you think we can eat it?"
Davos's emotional words are talking about the weakness of the leaders of Potentia, and everyone does not speak, but only looks at their leaders.
Pu Amo said in a hurry: "Master Daves, although we are a bit difficult, but you--"
Davers interrupted him again and said seriously: "Big Chief, our "Dionian Military Law" stipulates that during the war, the army is not allowed to drink, entertain, or celebrate. I was already in Elia. According to the news, Syracuse’s army has just invaded Great Greece! So the war here is over, and the war on the south has just begun. We have to go back to Turíy and drive away the enemies of Sicily...Waiting for victory. One day, Dionia will hold a victory parade. At that time, Dionia will solemnly invite the chief and all the leaders to Turíy to celebrate this hard-won victory!"
Speaking of this, the leaders of Potentia can't persuade anything anymore, not to mention that this is in line with the practice of many people. Puamote, who has never traveled far, even made a promise: "I will go there then!"
"In addition, after we captured the city of Poseidonia, we seized a large amount of food donated by the Syracuse people to the Samonaites. In view of the difficulties in livelihoods of the people of Potentia, I decided to send these supplies Give it to Potentia so that this piece of land can be restored to life as soon as possible." Daves said solemnly.
Everyone present was stunned.
"This...this...how can it be!" Puamote, who has always been steady and calm, is so incoherent that he doesn't know what to say.
"Master Daves, that is your trophy, and your such a huge army also needs food." Pollet said quickly.
"That's it!" Daves said confidently.
"Benevolent Master Daves!"
"Thank you Master Daves!"
"I thank you for the people of the Laionm tribe!"
……
Many leaders rushed to express their gratitude, this time it was completely from the sincerity.
Davers smiled silently. In fact, just as Polett said, his 30,000 army is also very tight. The soldiers’ rations have been eaten. The food is transported from Grumentum by land and sea, and it will consume 1/3 of it on the road. It’s not bad that Tia can maintain the army for ten days in Pau. Although the war here is over, there is still follow-up work to be completed. Even so, he did not hesitate to donate an amazing amount of supplies to Potentia, not for the present, but for the future.
At this time, the atmosphere of the scene is more harmonious, Daves has a very happy conversation with the leaders...
In the mountains not far from them, pairs of hateful eyes are watching the grand lively scene below the mountain.
"Chief, do you really decide to attack the camp tonight?! There are probably tens of thousands of Dionia, but we only have more than 1,000. Most of the people are still hungry! It is better to wait for the big leaders and the columns. It's not too late to attack the enemy after the leaders of Scucker and them all merged!" His soldiers showed hesitation.
"By then it will be too late! Only when the Dionians have just arrived on the march, and they are overly tired, will the chances of successfully attacking the camp be great! Potentia... Potentia People can...cough cough...can do it, so can we!" Gailny gave a deep voice to cheer up the tribe, but couldn't stop coughing. The experience last night was like a nightmare. If it weren't for the night attack, he wouldn't even mention the term "Potentia".
"Furthermore, we have been looking for a day today, and we haven't met...my father...and Lescuk and the others..." At this point, his expression was slightly worried and depressed, but he quickly threw it away Throw away these thoughts that bothered him, and once again cheered up the tribe: "We must act now! Otherwise, tomorrow, Dionian's army may attack Copsa northward! We must do our best to defend Abeniru. And the neighboring land!"
"Yes..." The Samona fighters answered feebly.
……………………………
In the middle of the night, Puamote returned to his house, still in the excitement of the previous conversation: "Pollett, what do you think of Davers?"
"A great Greek chief! A great army commander!" Pollet said concisely.
"Then, do you think he can lead the Dionians to repel Syracuse's army?" Puamote continued.
Pollett hesitated for a moment, and then affirmed: "I haven't seen the army of Syracuse, but the Dionian army is the most disciplined and powerful Greek army I have ever seen. I believe they can win!"
"I believe it, too." Puamote finished speaking, and saw his brother look surprised and smiled: "Although I have never participated in a battle, Daves is the one I have ever seen to restrain my desires and The Greek general who controls the desires of his men! Such a person has a personality like a pine tree growing in a rock. He will never give in when he encounters setbacks. He will definitely win the final victory! So—"
Puamote took a few steps and came to the statue of Asinu. After praying piously, he made his final determination: "I decided to dedicate Poseidonia to Dionia. "
"What?!" Polett was shocked when he heard this.
"In fact, Poseidonia is now in the hands of the Dionians, and they have taken it from Samona. Just now Daves has not mentioned how to deal with the city, so he still It is better to take the initiative to give it to Dionians. Anyway, the people there are either killed or captured. We are unable to help them, so let the Dionians help." Puamote sighed. With a sigh of relief, his eyes became brighter: "I think Davos is a man with a broad mind. The Bruti surrendered, Southern Lucania surrendered, many Greek city-states surrendered, and the Samonaites were also surrendered. Defeated...This land will be determined by the Dionians in the future. We must make an early choice so that Daves will not treat us Potentia badly."
"I see, brother. You are the chief of Potentia, you have the final say, I will listen to you." Pollet said sincerely.
"No, I am getting older. Potentia will be in charge of you in the future. I believe you will handle the relationship with Potentia." Puamote said calmly. He has no children. , Pollet is his younger brother, more like his son.
………………………………
In the middle of the night, there was a noise in the Dionian camp, which awakened Daves from his deep sleep.
"What happened?" Daves looked calmly at the acting captain Rodom and herald Tolmeide who entered the room.
"My lord, a Samonaite attacked the camp and was discovered by the sentry. Because he was in the defense zone of the Second Army, the commander of Armintas had already led the attack. I believe they will be repelled soon." Ermid said.
"It’s unlucky for a Sammonite to hit Amintas. This guy has not made a big battle since he came to the Lucania area. The war was the main force of the Third Army. The first and second corps made the final encirclement and impact, and victory came too easy. However, the Samona camp in Potentia collapsed inexplicably, and he thought there was a big battle. Naturally not satisfied.)"
