"Sit down, everyone will wait for you for a while." Davers, who was sitting at the top, looked at him with concern, then said in a gentle tone: "Now you know the bad things about alcoholism. ""
"Drunk is too uncomfortable. I will try not to drink alcohol in the future." Croto Kataks was the first drunk, and he felt a little dizzy head and whispered.
"You just have to drink less, but it is impossible to drink, or you can't get along with the soldiers better." A voice sounded next to him.
Klotok Katex turned his head and shouted intimately: "Big Brother! Thank you for your reminder!" Then he turned to the other side and nodded: "Hello, brother-in-law!"
Patroclus nodded with a smile and a friendly suggestion: "I was also very uncomfortable when I was drunk for the first time. At that time, my team officer gave me honey water to drink, and soon I felt much better."
"Honey water? I will try it for a while." Klotok Katex expressed his gratitude and then sat next to Adoris.
Daves made a gesture to the servant who stood by the side, and soon the dinner was placed on the table.
Davers smiled and his eyes slowly swept through the three people of Adoris, Klotok Katex, and Patroclus. He said in a calm tone: "There is an old saying in the East called 'Father and Son'." It is said that the father and son participate in the war at the same time, and they tend to be very united and can win the battle. This time the expedition to Latin, our adult men are all together... I am very embarrassed, it has been almost two months since, because During this time, the war was tense and the government was busy. In addition, in order to avoid suspicion, I did not give you more concern. I have a rare opportunity today, so I will call you three people at night. We will get together from our family, eat and drink, drink and drink. ,say something.
I am very happy, the battle is so frequent, and it is fierce, but you have not suffered any major damage, this is the greatest luck! So this first glass of wine, we want to thank Hades to bless us!
Said, Davers raised his glass.
Adoris and Patroclus also raised their glasses, only Klotto Kataks hesitated.
"Clotto, you just drank the wine, just drink honey water." Davers said.
His words instead made Klotok Katax change his mind. He asked the slave to mix more water into the wine and then poured a cup.
After the four people silently prayed to Hades, they drank the cup.
"Your Majesty!" Patroclus put down his glass and filled it up and said, "I should."
"Hey!" Daphus solemnly corrected: "I said this is a gathering at our house. Why are you still calling me like this! You should call me like Cynthia?"
Patroclus hesitated, then shouted reverently: "Father!".
"Yeah!" Davers responded with a smile.
"Called wrong, should I take a penalty first?" Adoris stared at Patroclus.
Patroclus drank a bit of dryness and then directed the empty glass to Adoris.
To be honest, although Patroclus was the brother-in-law of Adoris, they really didn't have dinner together. Patroclus's arrogance was a slap in the face of Adoris, and he immediately returned a cup.
"Haha, Patro, Cynthia is my eldest daughter. I have helped us to take care of other children since I was a child, so they are all serving Cynthia. You have taken her away. Adoris has a bit of resentment!" Daves Deliberately telling the story in a joking tone.
Adoris touched his nose slightly, and Klotok Katex’s heart trembled, but things have passed more than two years. He has accepted this fact and forgot the feelings in his heart.
Patroclus smiled and filled the glass and said: "Father... Father, what I just wanted to say is... The helmet that Clotto sent me is very protective, and I saved my life. While defending the city of Ostia, I was killing with the enemy, an arrow hit the side of my helmet, the helmet was very good against the impact of the arrow, did not cause me dizzy, but gave the opportunity to the enemy ......"
Patroclus touched his head and recalled the dangerous situation at the time. He said with a lingering heart: "So, I have to respect you, Klotto, thank you very much! You saved my life!"
Patroclus stood up and sincerely raised his glass to Klotto Kataks.
Klotok Katex hurriedly stood up and said: "The father just said it wrong. We didn't blame you for leaving your sister. Instead, thanked my sister for bringing us such a good brother-in-law! Now we are a family. It is okay to help each other! On the contrary, according to the tradition of Diaonia, I should first honor your brother-in-law!"
Davers is very satisfied that Klotok Katex can overcome the previous emotional entanglement, so generous and decent, he is pleased to watch the two clink glasses and drink, happy to pat the table: "Right right, this It’s a family!
Then, Daphus picked up another glass of wine and said, "This second wine is a thank you for your excellent performance in this war! Patello, you as the captain of the First Legion, in the rescue of Wolsey Attacking the city of Rome and defending Ostia... In these arduous battles, the mind is calm, the command is right, and the soldiers are still in the critical moment, boosting morale, and performing very well. I am proud of you!
Adoris, in the battle against the Roman reinforcements, the capture of the Chennai, and the city of Gaby, you not only be very heroic, but also led your team, so you are promoted to the team leader, not Mato Nice. I am pleased with you as a part of your son, but you have won it by your own record. I am proud of you!
Klotto, you just turned 18 years old, first time on the battlefield, I just wanted you to feel the atmosphere of the battlefield, and did not intend to let you go alone to kill with the enemy, but you have repeatedly taken the initiative to fight, have participated in the blocking Roman reinforcements, defense of Ostia, conquering Chendi Nai and Gabi, especially when attacking the city of Gaby, at the most critical moment, you bravely led the court guards to the city, for the capture of the city of Gaby Under the head, you are already a good soldier, I am proud of you!
Therefore, my glass of wine is the three outstanding young people who respect our family. You have won the glory of the royal family with outstanding performance. I thank you!
Davers stood up and looked up to the three men with a sincere look and then cleaned up.
Klotto Kataks, Adoris, and Patlockos listened to Daphus's words, and all of them looked at each other and smiled at each other. They picked up their glasses and greeted Davis.
Davers once again filled the wine and looked at them. He said with a strong heart: "This last glass of wine... respect our loved ones! We are fighting in front, they are worried in the rear! Adoris, Clotto, your two The mother sent a letter every day. The majority of the contents were asked about the situation of the two of you in Latin. What have you eaten today? Have you participated in the battle? Have you been injured in the battle?... Let them reassure, I have to spend energy every day to write good words and comfort them.
Paltrow, too, the letter that Cynthia writes to you every day is changed by me. I think it must be full of concern for you...so you have to remember that the reason why we are war is for home. Peace, don't overindulge in fighting, and forget the loved ones who worry about you in the rear!
The three people who had just been mad at the moment turned into a dignified look. Patroclus remembered the wife who loved her and was pregnant. Klotok Katex remembered the love of her mother and the harsh face. In fact, the mother of Christovia, who cares about it, Adoris remembers the mother of Christovia who has always cared for her and her sister who has taken care of herself since she was a child. The three of them silently picked up the glasses and then filled with emotions. Drink it all.
The living room was quiet for a while, and Davers said: "Well, three glasses of wine have been finished, then we will let go and talk casually. Clotto, your stomach is not comfortable, especially for you." Porridge, you should drink a little."
The servant had already brought the steaming rice porridge to the table of Klotok Katex. He took a spoonful and drank slowly.
The dinner prepared for them in the evening is yak and mutton, because Davers thinks that the family is more active, but Patroclus and Adoris have already eaten a lot at the noon party~EbookFREE.me~ The appetite was not very strong. I simply ate a few mouthfuls. Adoris couldn’t help but ask: "Father, are we going to attack the Roman army in the colonial city of southwestern Latin?"
"Yes." Daphus affirmed his question and said clearly: "Rome is a wolf. We should step up the attack when it is injured. Never give it a chance to recover. Avoid it and bite us again. So I have decided to lead the army tomorrow, attacking the Roman colonial city in the southwest and other Latin city states that have not yet surrendered."
"Our army will also participate?" Adoris asked busy.
"The Second Legion will follow me." Davers said, looking at Patlockos: "The First Corps will stay in Rome for the time being, and together with the Lucania Preparatory Corps, help the Chief Executive, Assisi. Sir, to maintain order and stability in the city of Rome, and you will also send the injured soldiers back to Turui, and the soldiers of Turui will also come to Rome to make up for the deficiencies of your first legion.
When the first legion completes the reorganization, the second legion will return to Rome to change your defense... so I hope that as soon as the Roman army is eliminated, the legions will be restored as soon as possible, because we have sufficient manpower and now we have Adequate reserves of military food.
