Vol 9 Chapter 100: Agassius knows the truth

When Sparta was in crisis, Xenophon chose to stay. At this moment, he heard Agassius' words and was a little surprised: "Let me go to Mesenia as a messenger?"
"This is my proposal, and the other elders also agreed." Agsilaus solemnly said: "It can be seen that everyone agrees that under such a difficult situation, only you can fulfill the good messenger's Duties! "
Xenophon did not feel complacent, but instead looked ashamed: "But the last time I sent Turri ... the effect was not good, the Dionysians still declared war on Sparta ..."
"It's not your fault!" Agassius comforted him, and then said in a deep voice: "During the period after we announced the end of the friendly agreement with Dionysia, Dionysia was calm in the country. There is nothing unusual. It is only when Thebes takes the initiative to form an alliance with it, which may make Dionia have the idea of ​​sending troops to Peloponnese, of course ... "
Agassius sighed in a deep sigh and said: "If we can defeat the Thebes in Ruktra, maybe Dionysian will not send troops to invade Mesenia ... when lion disease In fact, even the wild dogs will come to bully, not to mention Dionysia is a terrible beast ... Hey! I should have asked for the command of the army more actively at that time! "
Xenophon knew that the fiasco of the Battle of Ruktra had a huge impact on Sparta. Many people resented Cliombrotus ’incompetence. The Elder Council has not yet held a funeral for it, and naturally has not been favored. The selection of a new king from the Lippontides family is of course related to the urgent situation and the lack of time.
"Since things have happened, any regrets will not help, we must face reality and do our best to solve the current crisis. You can rest assured that I will do my best to complete the mission of this mission!" In order to comfort the depressed Agassius, Xenophon immediately made a commitment, but at the same time he also said with a serious expression: "You and I know that the Kingdom of Dionysia is powerful, the last time I sent out Turui It shocked me a lot, even this time we were able to finally repel the Dionysian army and recapture Mesenia ... But Sparta is not far from the Dionysian kingdom, Dionys has The ability to continue to send troops to invade Peloponnese, does Sparta want to fight against Dionysia all the time? Even with the support of Persia, this is probably unbearable for Sparta? "
Agassius struck his forehead strenuously, and whispered: "... Now for Sparta, the most important thing is how to get through the immediate difficulties ... I don't have time to think about the future ... … "
Xenophon froze. He looked at Agsilaus, who was lying on a wooden chair halfway, and found that the wrinkled face of this half-life king was particularly old at the moment, and his eyes revealed a little nothing. help……
Xenophon suddenly realized that he had always believed that the wise and wise Agassius was also powerless for this invasion of the Dionysian army.
After hesitating for a while, he finally summoned up the courage to suggest that Agsi Raus could carefully consider reconciliation after he repelled the Dionysian army of Mesenia.
But at this moment, Archidamus walked into the living room: "Father, the Elder Council will invite you to a meeting."
"I just came back from the meeting place, why do I have to have a meeting again?" Agsi Raus stunned.
"Dolios is back, saying it brought important intelligence."
"Dolios didn't die in battle ?!" Agsilaus was surprised: because according to the retreating soldiers, Dolios had already saved the will to die in battle, so he stayed alone in Mesenia ... ... how are you still alive?
"I heard that they were released by the Dionysians." Archidams looked down with contempt. Like most Spartan soldiers, he did not lead the soldiers to fight against the enemy, but instead ordered the soldiers to fight against Dorios. The army took the initiative to abandon Mesenia and felt very angry, but Dolios later bravely chose to stay, allowing them to reduce their anger a little, but now they learned that Dolios did not die and became Dior The captives of the Niah were even more disdainful towards this person.
Agsilaus once agreed with Dolios's approach. When the enemy is too strong and unprepared, he dares to give up Messiah to save strength rather than fight hard. This requires great courage and wisdom. , So he also regretted that Dolios finally chose to die in battle.
"Go and get my stick!" Said Agirous immediately, and stood up with difficulty.
"Father, you don't have to be too anxious, they will wait patiently for you to go to the meeting place." Archdamus stepped forward to help him.
Agsilaus wanted to rush to the venue early in order to protect Dolios and to avoid being accused and punished by the inspectors. After all, these young citizens of ordinary citizens are not as old-fashioned as the elders, and they are too radical.
Based on Agassius ’current physical condition, it may be better to travel in a sedan chair, but in Sparta, where all the people are still armed, there is no habit of sitting in a sedan chair. Fortunately, the residence of Agsilaus is not far away With the help of his son, he stumbled towards the meeting place.
On this way, many Spartan people met, and they all greeted the respectable king, most of them anxiously asked Agsi Laus: when to call citizens, kill Mesenia, rush The enemy walking there? !
Although they already knew that there were a large number of Dionysian troops in Mesenia, most of them, including the elderly and women, were not afraid, but were full of war.
However, despite the enthusiasm of the public, after listening to Agsi Laws' perfunctory words, although there was some dissatisfaction, it did not endure, nor did it like other city-states, as soon as there was a major event, citizens gathered in the council to express their emotion protest.
Before Agsilaus stepped into the council, he heard the anger of the Ombudsman: You are sophistry! Too many Dionysian soldiers landing is not the reason for your retreat without fighting! Why don't you study Bernadida! When the Athenians landed in Mesenia back then, even though the number of soldiers he commanded was far less than the opponent, he still chose to fight without hesitation, and finally won a big victory! Compared with him, you are not only timid, but also incompetent! I do n’t know how you were elected to the King ’s Guard ... "
Agassius hurried in, and as soon as he stepped into the venue, he immediately felt that the whole atmosphere was a bit unusual: the venue suddenly became quiet, both the elders and the inspector focused their eyes on him, and his eyes were very strange.
"What are you talking about ?! The commander of the Dionysian army in Mesenia is Leotichides? !!!" After hearing Dolios's account, Agsilaus shouted incredulously.
Looking at King Agsilaus, who was hard to lose his mind, Dolios said with a complex voice: "Although the Dionysian soldiers call him Prosius, he is indeed Leotichide. Sri Lanka! I have been training with him since I was a kid, and I will never admit mistakes, and he has admitted himself! "
"Prosius ..." Agsilaus was in a trance, and he now knew why everyone in the venue looked weird.
"According to what we have learned before, Prosius used to be the head of the 8th Legion of the Kingdom of Dionysian. He once led the army to defeat the Carthage in the war between Dionysian and Carthage. Dionysia made great contributions to defeating Carthage, so after the war, he became the head of the first legion of the Dionysians claiming to be the "strongest army" ...
He also led the army to conquer the fierce indigenous Gauls in northern Italy, so he was called by the Dionysians as 'the most victorious general to fight after King Daveus and Alexis'. It was actually a Spartan, and he was the son of Akis! "Speaking of Praxitas, the nearly 70-year-old elder Sparta used to be the regent of the Ulypontiides royal family. He used to fight against Agsi Laus before, but Leuktra would fight The failure caused many people to complain about the royal family of Ulypontiides, and Praxitas was also much quieter in the meeting. It was rare that such a strange thing would make Agsi Lause deflate. Patiently stood up and spoke, a look of gloating: our Ulypontiides family is in a bad situation now, and do n’t think of your Ajidai family going there!
"Since Dolios said that Leotichides grew up in Sparta since he was young and left at the age of 23, he should have some feelings for us in Sparta ~ EbookFREE.me ~ I think Is it possible to send a messenger to persuade him to take some actions that are beneficial to us? "An inspector glanced at Agassius and then proposed.
"You are still young and don't understand the situation at that time." A veteran said, "The Spartan citizen will not leave his hometown unless he is expelled because he made a mistake. Leotichides must be extremely pregnant. 'S resentment fled from Sparta, I even feel that ... the reason why Dionysia declared war on us Sparta, he probably played a big role in it. "After he said, he also looked at Agassius .
"I think ... Leotichides will not actively encourage Dionia to attack Sparta ..." Dolios also looked at Agassius and hesitantly said: "But he did personally treat me Say, he is here to get revenge ... "
Almost everyone in the venue will subconsciously consider Agassius when discussing this topic. They knew that Leotichides would be as they are today, closely related to Agassius, but no one dared to point it out directly, including Praxitas. This is related to the huge reputation that Agsi Raus has established in Sparta for decades, but also to the death of Cliombrotus, another new king has not yet been enthroned, and the people are more dependent on the outstanding ability of Agsi Lao Related.
