Weisba never thought that things would be so twisted and twisted.
Yesterday afternoon, when his envoys rushed to the plains of Sobari, the Lukania tribes had retired and had to return to the city for fear of being attacked by the Greek army. Today, Wesba is uneasy waiting for the Lukania coalition to reach the plains of Sobari, waiting for a long time. Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, the spy hurriedly returned: the Greek mercenaries destroyed the Lukania coalition on the big river beach of the Tino River!
Wesbach was stunned, he felt fear, hate not to leave this horrible mercenary immediately, the farther the better!
These powerful tribes in Lucania have been hit hard, and the control of the surrounding tribes will inevitably weaken. The Vesba tribes return to the mountains of Lucania and should not be oppressed for the time being. However, let him leave empty-handed like this, and he can't bear the mountainous materials he has seized in the city. His people are scared.
At this time, another sentence of the spy let him set the gods: the Greeks also suffered a lot of losses, at least thousands of casualties.
Yes, after a big fight, does the Greeks need to take a break? Wesba secretly concealed himself. He ordered the people to start packing their bags and loading materials, as the case may be, and then shipped them in batches.
After a busy afternoon, at night, the people were tired and fell asleep.
This delay of Wesbach has become a small regret in his life. But decades later, his people and descendants, when they talked about this day, were glad that they did not leave immediately...
..............................
In the middle of the night, a round of moon hangs on the sky, bringing a glimmer of light to the dark night.
The moonlight is like water, and it is quietly scattered in the plains of Sobari. I saw a long dragon quietly advancing toward the north of the coast. Crossing the Sumali River, passing the abandoned vineyards, passing the Saraceno River, the speed is not reduced, but instead Faster and faster, until the crossing of the Sisno River, the entire team suddenly stopped.
Every soldier looks at the city of Amendola, which is shadowed by the moonlight. The mood is very exciting.
Davers took a deep breath and calmed himself down, then waved his hand to Hilos.
The attack started!
..............................
This evening, Weisba had a good dream, dreaming that he had not left Amendo Lala, but lived here for many years, patrolling his flocks of cattle and sheep every day, squatting in the olive groves covered with fruits. Drinking sweet wine...
"The big leader, not good! The Greeks went into the city!" The guards panicked in.
"What do you say?!!" Wesbach woke up.
..............................
The next morning, Achta, who had just woke up from her sleep, got a strange message from the guards: the mercenaries who lived next to them disappeared!
He immediately went to check it out, and it was really empty.
Achta immediately felt wrong. And rushed to the nearby Daves camp: there were people in the camp, but they were all Duffus’s camps, medical camps, wounded soldiers, women, and a large number of slaves (mainly from Turui), and they were all Loading your luggage, ready to leave...
Achta stepped forward and grabbed Melsis, who was yelling and commanding slaves: "Melce, where did Davers and his soldiers go?"
Melsis was arrogant and did not respond, making him more suspicious.
Just then, a familiar voice came from behind: "Achta, I am really sorry, I am late, I am worried."
Acheta turned back and saw Davers smile, looking tired, but it looks good: "Where are your soldiers going?"
"Tell you a good news." Daphus rolled over and handed the reins to Assisi, and then calmly said: "We have regained Amendola!"
"When?" Acheta was shocked.
"last night."
I took a mountain city in one night? ! Looking at Davers's look is not like being a fake. You must know that siege is a big problem for any city-state army. Yesterday's battle has made Achta stunning in Dafos's grand, creative battle planning, strong commanding ability, and ability to pinch different forces. The fact that one night captured a mountain city made Achta, who had had many combat experiences, completely obeyed. He smiled bitterly: "Daves, you have completed a difficult task, it really makes me jealous!"
Achita’s straightforwardness made Daves laugh:
In fact, we are also blessed by the goddess of fate. The Lucanias are lax and defensive, completely unprepared.
"Oh, that's it." Achetta curiously wanted to listen to him. Who knows Davers's words turned and said solemnly: "There is something I want to get you and Tarantum's support."
"What?" Acheta looked at Daves's serious look and suddenly saw it.
Davers gazed at him and said in a word: "We mercenaries want to be citizens of Amendola!"
Achta once again stunned, and he asked indefinitely: "All mercenaries?! Are you serious?"
"This is the will of all mercenaries!" Davers said loudly in an unquestionable tone.
Acheta's look became serious. He looked around and whether Mercedes, Aristotle, or the busy guards stopped their work, and looked at him with a look of hope. Achta was busy turning his head and looking at Davers, and he said: "It seems that attacking Amendola is not a move you will make."
Dafusi did not answer directly. Instead, he said emotionally: "Achta, you were born in Tarantum, and you lived a good life. You can't understand the situation where our mercenaries are wandering around, life and death are not their own. One family is their biggest. desire!"
Achta was silent for a while and asked: "Does the consul of Actor Lara, Malcellis agree?"
"On the day when the Lucanias occupied Amendola, he was seriously injured and died in a few days. Another governor, Grat Buffalo... Last night, we attacked Amendola The people of Amendola Lara, who were detained at the top of the Temple of Zeus, had not waited for us to attack the top of the mountain. They launched an attack on the Lucania guards under the leadership of Grat Buffalo. As a result, there was a fierce battle between the two sides. When we arrived, Glatt Buffalo was already dead, including some members of the Senate..." Daves said in a heavy tone.
Acheta watched Davers, and Davers continued to say calmly: "According to our statistics, there are about a thousand people living in Amendola, and their physical condition is not good. Nearly half are old people, and many people have been injured. Even if we leave ~EbookFREE.me~ I am afraid they will not be able to maintain the normal management and work of the city of Amendola, let alone guard the mountain city."
Acheta understood that Daves not only wanted to make the mercenary a citizen of Amendola, but also wanted to be the master there. He was surprised by the ambition of Daves and shirked: "You should First ask for the opinion of Turui, after all, Amendola is its alliance."
"Achita, frankly speaking, Turui is now suffering two defeats, the strength is greatly damaged, it may not be able to take care of Amendola. And the weak Amendola is not rich, but its position It’s still very important, I’m afraid it will attract other forces’ attention. At least in our hands, we can hold it and be willing to form an ally with Tarantum to maintain the security of the area and ensure that Heraclia will not Be threatened by indigenous people again!" Dafos solemnly made a promise.
Acheta listened to some intentions. After all, Turui was too bad in this war with Lucania and almost caused disaster to this area. So he cautiously and confessed: "I have no right. Deciding whether you can have Amendola Lara, you need the consent of the Tarantum Senate! I will immediately send someone back to Tarantum by boat. I hope that you will also send people to go to the Talatum. The hospital expresses your wishes!"
Thank you very much, Acheta!
Daves said excitedly.
"The only thing I regret is that you can no longer be a citizen of Tarantum." Acheta said sincerely.
Davers was greatly moved and said: "But we will be allies, maybe one day we will fight side by side again!"
Without the consent of the people of Amendola, nor the advice of their ally Tuli, the two people’s talks decided the ownership of a city.
