Upon hearing this, many of the Turui messengers were shocked.
Kunogolata had to ask: Turui had to discuss the issue privately before making a decision.
Davers nodded and agreed. Seeing the Turil Herald marching into the distance, he turned back and gave a thumbs up to Stromboli: "Master Stromboli, you just said it is great!"
"I am telling the truth!" Stromboli squinted.
"What I want is the truth!" Davers laughed.
Stromboli also laughed, and he finally got a bad breath in front of the Turifs today!
........................
"You, it seems that Amendola has reached an alliance agreement with Tarantum, and Amendorara must have obtained the consent of Tarantum. Only if we do not agree to this condition, this The talks could not be discussed anymore.
Kunogolata said with a dignified look.
"That's not to talk about it! Anyway, the threat of the Lucanias has been resolved, we don't have to go to the gas of Amendola La!" Neonsis said with a sigh of relief, one thought of a year ago, Amendola Treating Turri makes a respectful look. In the blink of an eye, he dared to point to General Turui yelling. This disparity in attitude change made Neonsis unbearable. He hated and said: "damn Tarantu Mu, I thought they were really sincere to help Turui, I didn’t expect it to be bad in the dark!"
Ansitanos has some helplessness: "Whoever made us defeated! A weak city-state is impossible to be respected. This is the law of history. We all got the news that the Bruti people have stopped with Crotone. In the war, in the Crotone Neighbourhood, someone mentioned 'the question about our taming with the old city site of Boris.' This must cause us to be vigilant. Once they are in trouble, we are behind the hostile Amendola. La, our situation will be very dangerous! In addition, we also know that the Lucanias are very vengeful. After this war, they don’t know when they will recover, but once they recover, they will invade again and block the front. Or are we in Turui, can we beat them? Don't you need the help of Amendola?"
Ansitanos said that other people were worried, and Neonsis was cold and cold, but did not speak again.
"In fact, the key to this question is whether Tarantum has the ambition to touch our Turui." Kunogolata reminded everyone, he seriously analyzed: "I think Tarantum should not have this attempt. Otherwise They will not bother to advocate and establish a great Greek defense alliance to deal with the indigenous people. If they want to touch the Turui, I am afraid that the city states such as Crotone and the West Chamber will join us to oppose them, and the alliance will Disintegration, their efforts in the past few years have all been in vain. And even if they occupy our city-states and support the government that is close to them, they are not worth the loss, because they will face three powerful enemies, the Mesapi people in the southeast, The Lucanias in the northwest, the Crotone League in the southwest. Once the Lucanias or Crotone were invaded, Tarantum, the 'mother', was not only one. Two thousand people came to Turai, and it would be fine to deal with it. So I think that Tarantum did this because it was because we had defeated them and they wanted a small newspaper. Just now, since our ancestors could be a few years after the city was founded more than 40 years ago, it will make Turui a big country in Greece! As long as we temporarily forbear and work together, we will be able to do it in a short period of time. Let Turiyi rise again! The humiliation of Amendola and Tarantum will be returned to us, just like our ancestors did!"
"The Honours Kuno Gorata is right!" The words of Kunogora Tower inspired the spirit of the people and inspired their confidence. Returning to the negotiating table, the Turuis readily agreed to the first condition put forward by Amendola.
Looking at the opposite of Knoogolata, Davers knew that the look of this gloomy old man played a big role in it.
At this time, Antonios stood up again and said: "In early April, our consul, Davers, signed an employment agreement with Turui. The main content of the agreement was 'Assisting Turif to defend and repel Lucca. The Lia people's period is half a year. In the past six months, regardless of whether the mission is completed or not, Turui will pay the mercenary salary and a certain amount of grain regularly. This is the original agreement."
Antonios handed the sheepskin roll in his hand to the opposite Ansitanos: "According to the agreement, even if the Lucanias have been repulsed, Turui will have to continue to pay mercenary salaries and supplies, while the mercenaries still Will continue to implement the requirements in the agreement, 'defend Turui until the end of the six-year period.' It is time for you to pay the salary and the grain."
Kunogolata nodded and just wanted to answer.
Neonsis quickly stood up and said: "Tuli is not ready to implement this employment agreement!"
Not only was the Amendo Lara messenger stunned, but the Turifs were also surprised. They discussed this before they came, and thought it necessary to continue the implementation of the agreement, because Davers has become the lifelong consul of Amendola, and the employment of Davers, it is equivalent to the employment of Amendola. First of all, this can satisfy the poor self-esteem of the Turai people. The most important thing is that the current strength of Turui is greatly weakened. It really needs Davers to lead a mercenary protection with strong combat power so that it can recover through stability. period. At that time, Neonsis opposed the treasury emptiness and was finally convinced by Kunogolata. Unexpectedly, at the crucial time, Neonsis actually repented and made a surprise to the Turui messengers.
Under the cold eyes of Kunogora, Neonsis trembled and hurriedly avoided, because he was forced to the edge of the cliff by impulsiveness, he continued to say: "First, the original Turui The signing of the contract is for mercenaries. Now that the mercenaries have become citizens of Amendora, the identity of the signing party has changed, and the hiring of a city-state civic is involved in more complex interests and procedures. It is not this simple employment. The agreement can be resolved; secondly, you should note that the name signed at the end of the agreement was General Firis, when he asked Burkos to be responsible for the recruitment of mercenaries, which was mostly returned to the Turif City Hall. The generals all objected to the content of the agreement. In the end, Fei Ruisi forced the agreement in the name of the chief general because he said that he would be responsible for preparing half of the salary and support, so the agreement signed his name. And now he and his family are almost killed in the battlefield, so..."
"I am! The Turais are not only selfish, but they don't talk about credit, they don't have shame. Even the old people who fight for the death of Turui are going to be smashed!..." Stromboli once again screamed and let the Amendola Defuse the gas and make the Turais ashamed.
Davers saw Kuno Gorata eagerly snoring what Ansitanos was saying. He turned his head and made a look at Mariji. Marigi immediately stood up and said, "We agree with your proposal and abandon this employment agreement. But not because of your explanation, but because we don’t want Turui to add extra taxes because of the empty treasury, which makes the grief of the Turui people even more painful! After all, Amendola and Tuli It was a ally of many years!" Mariji had a look of sadness and sorrow.
The Amendola Lara, including Stromboli, looked serious, which made the Turifs even more ashamed.
Kunogolata looked at Neonsis with a cold eye, and Neonsis did not have a sense of success in arguing for success.
"Amendo Lara and Turui not only want to defend the common enemy in the military, but we should also strengthen cooperation in trade..." Marji continued to talk and confessed the terms discussed with Daves. .
Most of the Turai people expressed their consent, both because of the psychological shackles of the previous cancellation of the employment agreement, and some clauses were equally conducive to solving the difficulties of Turi, such as the port in the city of Turai because of the free people. The long-term influx of foreign merchant ships and sailors has become overcrowded. EbookFREE.me~ Accommodation is difficult, the cost is high, and there are many complaints. However, in order to win the battle with the Lucanias, the City Hall decided to recruit free people to go out to fight the city, and verbally announced that the free people who participated in the war will be given to the citizens of Turui, and the result will end. Lie was defeated, and the free people also suffered heavy casualties. When the Lukaria tribes were annihilated, the living freedom of the people demanded that the Turai City Hall fulfill its promise, but the generals of Turui and the council discussed , think: the Lucanias were repulsed, the merits of the mercenary and the Tarantum reinforcements, and the free people did not participate in the subsequent annihilation war. On the contrary, in the previous war, the free people first collapsed, leading to the failure of the entire battle, so the free people have no reason to claim citizenship.
The refusal of Turui made the free people feel dissatisfied. A tense atmosphere began to pervade the port area. The search, fight and troubles gradually increased. The city hall had to increase the number of patrols in the port to deter the dangerous elements. The problem is Lily now has more than 3,000 young and middle-aged citizens, but there are many free people in the port area and the city. Once the riots are caused, it will be a disaster. Therefore, the construction of warehouses and hotels in Amendola will help to spread the crowds of the port of Tulare and ease the contradictions, which is beneficial to Turui.
The two sides finally reached an alliance agreement, but they have not signed yet. Because Amendorara has respected Tarantum, he must first submit the contents of the agreement to the governor and the Senate of Tarantum for review, confirming that there is no damage. After the interest of Tarantum, the final signing can be completed.
