In the early morning, in the headquarters of the army chief of Asturusum, the adjutant knocked on the door of the head of the army, Epiphanis, and opened a door to a young man who was not in the air.
The adjutant has become accustomed to shouting in the house: "The head of the army, the Senate sent an urgent letter!"
"Know it." There was a lazy voice in the room.
After a while, I saw Epiphanis walked out of the bedroom naked and took the letter from the adjutant.
The man looked over and wanted to see, Epiphanis patted his face with his hand, and the relative said: "You go back first, then I will look for you again."
The young man replied to the bedroom and put on his clothes. When he left, he did not forget to kiss on Epiphanes' face.
"This guy is not bad, Tarantum, a nobleman, very educated, but the family is broken." Epiphanis looked at the man's back, some show off to the adjutant.
The adjutant did not speak, and he did not want to comment on his hobby.
"Oh, yes, look at the letter first." Under the urging gaze of the adjutant, Epiphanis opened the letter. After reading it, he whistled: "Daveus asked our fourth army to rush before October. Go to the West Liting and join the army of the South Italian Alliance, and then prepare to attack Rocky."
"Great!" the adjutant said excitedly: "We will inform the chief executives of Asprostum and Crimea to issue an administrative order to inform the soldiers of the two cities that they will be in Kerry tomorrow. There is a collection of reports from Misa's square (the square in Asprostum is too small to accommodate 8,000 Legionnaires).
"We don't have to worry too much. The letter is very clear. It will be rushed to the West Chamber before October. This shows that Daevers did not want to fight against Locke. It was too early to eat the ration. I have to eat the reserve rations. This is a waste. We still have ten days to prepare. I can just discuss with the two chief executives about the transportation of rations and other preparatory work, and wait for the first time. The soldiers of the rugby match are back."
Epiphanis said quite rightly. The adjutant said helplessly: "Well, you are the head of the army. You have the final say. But I am afraid that Dracos will lead the Fifth Army too early, and we will not wait for us. Be swearing."
"That serious, oh, really, I am afraid that he will get angry." Epiphanis shrugged helplessly, and both of them laughed.
....................................
The fifth army regiment outside Cosenza, Dracos is supervising the training of the soldiers.
He was originally transferred to the Legion by Daves in the previous year, but several times he ordered it. He refused to obey. The reason was that he was only good at snoring and would not do copywriting work, even if he did not exercise again. Daves can't take him, because in accordance with the military law: the head of the army can not serve in a legion for too long (mainly Daves is afraid of too long, the soldiers have a sense of dependence on the head of the army and weakened him in the soldiers The prestige in the heart), therefore, he had to be sent to Cosenza to serve as the newly formed head of the Fifth Army. Drax did not bear the burden of Dafoss. In just a few years, through the rigorous training, the loose Brutus was trained to become a qualified legionnaire.
"The head of the army, the Senate of Cosenza turned to the eager letter!" The guard rushed in.
After Dracos opened the letter, he suddenly smiled and shouted: "The commander! The commander!"
"I am, the head of the army."
"You immediately let your hand hold this urgent letter, go to Vig, Knapetia, Ambaria, inform the soldiers of the Fifth Army, and report to the square in the city of Cosenza tomorrow, and the latecomer will press 30. The barracks punish!"
"Yes!"
"The head of the army, is it going to start the war?!" the adjutant asked excitedly.
"We have declared war on Locke for so long, and now we have sent a mobilization order. What is so happy!" Dracos said with some dissatisfaction, and then adjutant: "You are here to supervise them to train, I want to catch up immediately." Go to Cosenza and discuss with the Chief Executive, Felicius, about the issue of troops."
What did the adjutant think of, reminding Dracos: "The head of the army, we still have some soldiers in the football game in Turui, you see -"
"You don't say that I almost forgot." Dracos thought for a moment and said: "The soldiers who are looking for the reserve team will replace their position first, and send people to Turui to urge them to come back soon, otherwise they will miss the battle, not Blame me."

Agassius lay in the big account and looked dignified: Today, the Spartan coalition and the anti-Spartan alliance formed a stalemate in the Corinthian isthmus. The enemy relied on the solid city defense of the Corinthian city to repeatedly defeat the Spartan attack. So that he can not do anything.
It’s not that Agassius wants to open up the second battlefield again, but the Spartan fleet has been hit hard, and the Athenian peasant led a large fleet built by Persia into the port of Piraeus. Handing over the entire fleet to Athens made Sparta face the same dilemma decades ago - they lost the ocean.
Damn Persians, this is definitely their ghost in the dark! Agassius cursed secretly, but he apparently forgot that it was his actions in Asia Minor that led to the consequences of today.
At this time, someone opened the tabernacle: "I am King Agislaus, I am coming."
"Fibidas." Agassius is about to sit up.
Pfeidas dared to go forward and held him down. He said with concern: "I heard that you have been in poor health these few days. If you fainted yesterday, don't stand up."
Phibidas said, sitting cross-legged on the ground.
Agslaus is also unfamiliar, still lying on the couch, and said: "This is a old problem, it will be good to rest for a few days (in fact, he is the sequela of polio). This time you are coming. Because the elders’ council has sent people an urgent letter."
Agslaus looked serious: "Syracuse is about to attack the Great Greece, so we ask for help and ask a military general to help them defeat Diaonia."
"What?! Dionysius is going to launch the Great Greek War at this time, he promised to give us assistance?!" Filibidas was shocked.
"Nature is no more..." Agslaus sighed helplessly: "According to Syracuse, it was Dionia who first declared war on Lockley, forcing them to fight to protect their allies... But you and I know that the Daonian consul was assassinated ten days ago. Although Diaonia claims to be a Rocky, the truth is, it’s not that simple."
"Damn Dionysius! This unbelievable bastard!" Fibidas roared: "When we were not supported by Sparta, how could he sit firmly in the position of Syracuse! ......"
"Dionysius is mad, but Dionia has strengthened contact with Athens some time ago. You have to know that the former Turai was established in Athens and has always been an ally of Athens..." Agslau Si looked at Fibidas and solemnly said: "So, since this great Greek war is inevitable, then Don't let Dionya win! So I recommended you to the Elders Council, your ability, I am I understand, but I hope that you can abandon the grievances against Dionysius and help Sparta to help him win this war!"
After listening to Pybidas, he nodded and said: "King of Agreslaus, you can rest assured that I will help Dionysius defeat Deonia as soon as possible, and then let him send troops to assist Sparta as soon as possible!"
Agassius reminded him cautiously: "You must not care, don't underestimate the young governor of Dionia, Davers! You must know that he has not failed in the battle so far, otherwise The Dionysian alliance will not rise so fast, exceeding the expectations of our Spartans! Dionysius is asking for help because of this pressure! In the past, he was with Jiatai. At the time of the war, ~EbookFREE.me~ did not take the initiative to seek our help before the war, but also said that once the war with the Dionysian and the South Italian coalition, willing to let Sparta Will lead the conductor."
"Dionysius is really not good at fighting, and Davers -" After fifteen thinking seriously, he said excitedly: "Although I don't like this person, I have to admit that he is indeed a very Good opponent, but I have the confidence to beat him!"
When Agassius looked at him for a while, he nodded and said: "Yes, our Spartans are to be fearless. You are now rushing back to the team, making the handover, and immediately rushing to Syracuse."
"Yes!"
Looking at Fibidas leaving, there is always a worry in the mind of Agreslaus. The young Danonian consul who never saw the face but has been victorious not only gave Dionysius pressure, but also At the same time, he gave the invisible pressure of King Sparta who has been paying attention to Diaonia...

At the same time, in a residence in the city of Athens, the chief general of Athens, Syracuse, was talking to Isola.
The plain and high Isocrate is quite respectful in the face of Syracuse, because in his heart, Syracuse is a person worthy of his respect.
During the "Thirty-Year Masters" in power, a large number of Athenian citizens were persecuted and fled elsewhere. The democratic Syracuse did not escape, but led a group of Athenian citizens to establish a resistance base at the junction of the two regions of Attica and Piosia (at the time, thebes was a foe for many years with Athens, but funded This team against Athens, which was controlled by Sparta, attempted to overthrow the ruthless rule of the Lord and restore Athens to independence and democracy. Under the leadership of Ilosi Bros, this small team, with fewer enemies and more defeats, actually defeated the powerful army.
