lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Mediterranean Overlord of Ancient Greece!
At the beginning of the war, Castellon offered to send troops to participate in the battle, but was politely rejected by the Dionian Senate because Dionian’s forces were strong enough, and the number of Castellon’s soldiers was too small. , On the contrary, it will affect the overall unified command of the army, so it only accepts the supply of warships and rations from Castellon. Dionia, who is now stretched out, has to ask Castro for help. No matter how small the mosquito's legs are, it is meat.
"If the Syracuses did not make a full landing to attack us, our forces in Turei would be enough." Capus comforted them and said: "There are still 500 cavalry in Turri. Klian’s naval fleet is temporarily unable to expedition, and some sailors can be transferred to serve as light infantry. Of course, it is better to get some heavy infantry from Castellon to enrich the army!..."
Kunogorata stepped forward, saluted Caps solemnly, and said in a deep voice: "Master Caps, Turriy’s safety is up to you."
As soon as Kunogolata’s voice fell, Cornelus and the other elders also wanted to salute Capus. This is the first time that the elders of the traditional city-state salute Capus, who was born as a mercenary, so solemnly. It made him feel the pressure, he returned a strong military salute, and then strode out of the venue.
Worried veterans, look at me, and I look at you. The last gazes all look at the empty seat in the front row of the center of the venue together. Before, they were still a little entangled in Davers becoming king. At this moment, this emotion has disappeared without a trace, and there is only one thought in their hearts: Davers, when will you come back to save Dionia? !
……………………………
The Siracusa Naval Commander Leptinius did not plan to land on the coast of Turri and attack Turri. He knew very well: Turri is not Trina, it has enough manpower. It is impossible for his simple sailors to take down this large city with thick walls and tight defenses. He did not intend to send warships into the Krati River, because the Syracuse did not occupy one of the riverbanks of the Krati, and the city of Turiyi was blocked by the river. In the river, it is easy to be attacked by enemy rockets and burned to ashes...
Leptinius, of course, is reluctant to put his warship and sailors with rich experience in ship handling in such a dangerous situation. He only sent a handful of sailors to attack the outskirts of Turíy in order to persecute and hide in Kara The purpose of the decisive battle of the Dionian fleet in the River Te.
Compared with Leptinius' caution, Syracuse's mercenary cavalry acted very arrogantly and without taboos. Although Crimea has called the people to hide in the city due to the persecution of the enemy army, there are still a small number of people who failed to move into the city in time and were slaughtered by alien cavalry, especially the Celtics who used their spears to cut them off. The heads of the Dionian people, including women and children, passed by the city of Crimea with majestic power, making the Sixth Army soldiers stationed at the head of the city angry, but they were unable to attack due to military orders...
The chief executive of Crimea, Plot Silus, was fidgeting in the city hall. He saw Oliver, the commander of the Sixth Army Corps, come in and hurriedly greeted him: "Master Olivers, you are back!"
Olivers, who had just finished patrolling the defense of the port, saw Plotsilus’s anxious face, and couldn’t help but smile pretendingly: "Is the enemy attacking us?" Of course it’s impossible. He just finished patrolling. , How can you not know.
"What's going on here, you still want to make a joke!" Plotsilus said anxiously.
"What's the matter?!" Olivers asked with a narrow smile, earnestly.
"The families of the people you imprisoned came to the city hall to make trouble again. This time they gathered hundreds of people and threatened to say,'If they don’t release their relatives again, they will take a ride in front of the city hall. Set up a tent and live for a long time!'" Teacher Plotsey said with worry on his face. If he is so disturbed by the people, he, the chief executive, will become a big joke for the entire Senate in the future.
"Dare they!" Olivers sneered, knowing that when he led the Sixth Army to Crimea, he was blocked by a group of protesters outside the city gate. It was he who attacked the army and conspired to rebel. , Detained him, the army was able to enter the city.
In the past few days, he has been busy arranging the defense of the whole city. I don’t know when some rumors have been circulating in the city: "With so many soldiers of the Sixth Army stationed in the city, it will only consume our little food and water. When the Rakuzas were besieging the city, we were the Crimeans who starved to death first..."
"Now the Syracuses are burning our fields outside the city and slaughtering our relatives. The soldiers of the Sixth Legion should go out of the city to drive them away, protect our relatives and property, and not be as timid as rats. Hiding in the city..."
……
Olivers ignored these rumors and followed the established steps to improve the city defense. Hearing the news that the detainee’s family gatherers were making a fuss in front of the town hall today, he still remained calm, because after he entered the city, the Aristotle’s intelligence department placed the manpower in Crimea. After finding him quietly, he knew that during this period of time Syracuse’s spies frequently entered and exited Crimea and colluded with some Crimesa citizens, which made the situation in the city so chaotic.
At this moment, he said in a deep voice, "Master Protsilius, the woman who assassinated Master Daves before came from Crimea. Master Daves was kind and did not further expand the investigation for the stability of the alliance. But Today it seems that Crimea’s problem is very serious. Even with military control, the situation in the city is still chaotic these days. I am afraid that among them, Siracusa’s spies are inciting trouble. If severe measures are not taken, once the enemy comes in a big way Attack, we are defending at the head of the city, but there are disturbances in the city, this city is dangerous!"
Plot Silus' face changed suddenly and asked: "What are you going to do?"
"Of course he was caught, and all collaborators and troublemakers would be executed by public trial!" Olivers looked murderous, his palms like blades, and he waved down vigorously.
Plot Silus was shocked and hesitated again: "It's too harsh to do this, they are all Union citizens!"
Olivers glanced at him, with some contempt in his heart: The young Amendorara veteran had always supported Davers when he was in the Senate, and he was also very positive in his speeches. But when he waited to be alone and dealt with political affairs, he seemed to look forward and backward and hesitant. Therefore, when Scombras was the chief executive of Crimea, the political situation was relatively stable; when it was his turn, not only was there an assassination, the situation was almost out of control...
"Teacher Plotsi, you should know that you have served as a judge. Our "Dionian Military Law" stipulates that'the one who flees seriously and the rebels behead their heads.' And the "Dionian Law" also It stipulates,'The highest punishment for a traitor is the death penalty.' Now is the time of war. These people who colluded with our enemies and tried to destroy our defense against Crimea and even betrayed the alliance shouldn't be the death penalty!" Olivers shouted sharply.
Ms. Plotsey thought for a while, and reluctantly said: "Well, I agree with you. However, I hope you can show the people solid evidence before they can be executed."
This is not easy. Olivers thought, he immediately agreed. After leaving the city hall, he quickly found personnel from the intelligence department. After their identification, he led the soldiers to search more than a dozen suspicious people (all former citizens of Crimea). ), a large number of four drachmas silver coins, letters were found, and two Syracuse spies hidden in his home were even found.
Plotsilus has nothing to say anymore.
Olivers faced the people of the city on the square, showing evidence of collaborating with more than a dozen citizens, beheading them on the spot, and arresting and imprisoning the family members who caused the trouble. Suddenly, the chaos in Crimea was lost. Greatly changed, the people began to devote themselves to the city defense under the command of Olivers...

Rebazzo, the slave chief of Davers Mansion, used to be in the front yard with an unhurried pace to show that he was different from ordinary slaves in terms of identity and demeanor, but today his legs Turning fast like a wheel, in the blink of an eye, he ran across the front yard from the gate to the back yard.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!..." He couldn't restrain his excitement and knocked hard.
The door was suddenly opened, and Azuna, who was watering the flowers, was holding a double-eared amphora filled with water in one hand, and holding the door with one hand, she saw Ribazzo, her face was ugly, and even more so. Inverted, he cursed unceremoniously: "Uncle Ribazzo, you are still a supervisor! Don't you know that your wife needs to rest well during this period of childbirth! You knock on the door so loudly that everyone on the hill can I heard it! If you wake up little Eunice and cry, madam will blame it, I see what you do!"
"Sorry, Azuna, I'm so excited! Because...because Master Daves...our master is going to be a king!" Ribazzo said excitedly.
"Really?!" Asuna covered her face with her hands in surprise, and the jar fell on the ground and broke into several pieces, and she didn't even notice it.
"The veterans declared to more than a thousand people in the square, and there are still fakes!" As soon as Ribazzo's voice fell, Asuna yelled and jumped, joyously going backwards like a lunatic Run away.
"Young people are really not stable enough!" Ribazzo murmured a few words, bent down, picked up the fragments of the vase, showing a look of regret: "It's a pity, the best Athens vase."
Asuna pushed open the bedroom door, and she heard Agnace’s voice: "Asuna, Eunice is still sleeping, you are too loud!" Agnace has always been gentle with others. Speaking in a tone of voice, it has already indicated that she is angry.
