Vol 9 Chapter 106: Father and son talk

Antebris closed his mouth in grievance.
Unexpectedly, the roar of Kristoa scared Krotokatax's only one-year-old son, and he burst into tears.
"Mother, can you speak quietly?!" Dido, who was feeding the child, said suddenly dissatisfied.
If Dido was usually dissatisfied with her in such a manner of speaking, Christosia had long been dissatisfied, but now seeing her beloved grandson crying, she felt ashamed in her heart and quickly said with concern: "Be careful, Don't let him choke!"
Yunice laughed with a thump.
Christoia turned to look at her: "You are all married, there is no serious day to night!"
"Mother, what you said is wrong! I am busy in the chamber of commerce during the day and I am so tired that I can relax at dinner and be criticized by you. The pressure is too great, or start tomorrow. I don’t want to do it, and enjoy it at home?!
Younis immediately expressed her dissatisfaction.
Kristoa was speechless for a moment, turning her head and looking at Antebris: "How old are you, and you are still single! At your age, your eldest brother and second brother are married and have children! How many veteran ministers come to the door It was rejected by you to raise your relatives. You know how to train and train every day. Do you want to marry football?"
"Grandma, the school classmates said that my uncle played football very well and admired him in particular!" Cynthia's eldest son interjected loudly.
"Don't talk, eat something!" Cynthia hurriedly reprimanded her son.
After being praised by the younger generation, Antebris was very complacent, but when he saw Christoia staring at him, he quickly grieved again: "Mother, I didn’t go to your request every time. Have you met! However, I really haven’t been hit by the golden arrow of Iros, and I can’t help it. Besides, I’m not alone, I’m not too young, is she also not married? !"
Aviaia, who was eating quietly, suddenly blushed: "Third Brother, you-I...I..."
"Little Ante, you bullied Aviaia again!" Younis immediately scolded again.
"Hey, I said that, don't call me that!" Briantes growled dissatisfiedly.
"The two of you are endless!" Croto Kataks finally said loudly, "Can you have a quiet meal?! Whoever is going to mess around, go out first!"
The restaurant quieted down at once, and Yunis and Briantes bowed their heads in a proper manner.
Daveus looked in his eyes and nodded secretly in his heart: years of hardening have made his once-elderly eldest son dignified.
"You also go back to your seats and finish your dinner." Croto Catax said to the children gathered around Briantes, despite his mild attitude, except His own child Christopher, the other children simply ignored it.
At this time, Apox said to them: "Hurry up and finish your dinner, I will let Uncle Ante continue to tell you his story, OK?"
"Okay!!!" The children immediately ran back to their seats.
"Second brother, you are still awesome." Klotokatax praised.
Apox smiled: "Brother, you have been away from Turui for many years, the children are not familiar with you, and after a long time, they will listen to you."
The two looked at each other and smiled.
After having dinner, it was when the moon was at the beginning of the moon and the stars were shining, Christoia asked the servants to light the candlelight in the yard, and Agnes, Cynthia, Yunice, Aviaia, Neliya (Apox’s wife), Molina chatted in the gazebo in the garden, and the children surrounded Briantes and listened to his colorful storytelling... The whole yard was full of laughter and a harmonious and lively scene.
Apox went back to his mansion alone and continued to study during the day.
Croto Catax was called to the study by Davis.
"After you come back, you haven't had a good chat with you yet." Daveus motioned for his son to sit down, and then asked Yan Yuese: "How many days have you gotten used to Turriyi?"
"I can go home and live with you, my two mothers, and my siblings. Dido and I are very happy." Crotokatax paused and said frankly: "It's me I feel a little too busy, and a little uncomfortable."
"It seems that you still have some complaints." Daveus said pretendingly, seeing his son eager to explain, he waved his hand and said with a smile: "I wanted to help you manage the state after a few days of rest. But today, Hippopolis gave me a proposal—"
When Crotocatax saw Daphes suddenly stop talking and did not worry about it. After a while, he still didn't speak to Davos. Then he asked, "What is the suggestion?"
Daveus did not immediately respond and instead asked: "What do you think of the Kingdom's dispatch of Peloponnese?"
Crotocatax thought about it seriously, and then he said: "Although this time is different from the previous war, we are actively sending troops, but in fact Sparta has a long history of hostility towards us. During the Western Mediterranean War, when the entire Apulia region was invaded, it was the Spartans who were sneaking in secret. Taking advantage of the opportunity of the decline of the Spartans’ strength this time, we sent troops to eradicate this hidden danger completely, which is good for the safety of the kingdom. .
"Although Sparta is the overlord of the native Greece, Greece has always had frequent wars, and it is the culprit. Greece and the kingdom are separated by a small Adriatic Sea. There is no benefit. Through this conquest of Sparta, we can gradually intervene in the political situation of Greece, and finally lead Greece to restore peace and prosperity, thereby defeating the Persian conspiracy and making Greece a powerful barrier to the east of the kingdom... "
Daveus listened and was very pleased: "It's very good! It seems that you have not only been immersed in the heavy tasks in these years, but also paid close attention to the situation around the kingdom, and have seriously thought about it and have your own opinions, This is good!"
Crotocatax was a little embarrassed: "In Rome, sometimes I was invited by Lord Acistes to a banquet, and I learned a lot from him."
"Good at learning from others, and then turning useful things into your own, which is also very good!" Daveus nodded appreciatively, and then asked again: "You think we will be able to defeat Peloponnese this time. Spartan?"
Croto Katak replied without hesitation: "Absolute triumph!"
"Oh, so confident?"
"Father, the Gaul army invaded Etrunia a few years ago. At that time, the people in the Roman city were very panicked, and I was the same. But not long after, not only the Gaul army was destroyed, but even the entire Gaul area in the mountains was conquered by us." Croto Kataks said passionately: "Although Brother Pallockros played a large role in the entire war, I was in Rome to raise grain and grass supplies for the army, and I was more deeply aware of the power of the kingdom. How powerful.
At the beginning of the war, the food and military supplies from the south quickly filled the warehouses of the Roman city. The 100,000 troops were quickly assembled and transported by countless ships. They landed smoothly in the Gauls’ territory, north-central The Gauls feared by the Italian forces were conquered by us in just a few months...
Therefore, although the Spartans’ bravery has long been known in the Eastern Mediterranean, their territory is far less than the Gauls and the population is far less than the Gauls. We are fighting with Spartans and it is more like a duel between adults and children. How long it takes to conquer it depends on how much power we put in. "
"Yes, the key to the victory of the war is the strength of the national strength!" Daveus was a little surprised. He did not expect that Croto Kataks had glimpsed the essence of the war through the Gaul War, which made him very relieved and deeply Before making sense of its decision to take root in Rome.
At this moment, his face was full of smiles, saying: "Henipolis suggested that you be the commander of the expedition to Greece, how do you feel?"
Crotocatax asked in surprise: "Isn't the commander of that army Prosius?!"
"Prosous was the son of former Spartan King Akis. After Agsilaus succeeded to the throne, he fled to Dionysia and was incognito. This time he led a military expedition and was recognized in Mesenia. Out, the generals and soldiers of the entire army knew it. Now that the military heart is floating, he also proposed to me that he wanted to resign from the position of commander, and soon the military department will transfer it back to Turui."
"Father~EbookFREE.me~ General Prosius has lived in the kingdom for more than 20 years and has made outstanding achievements. He cannot be done against him just because he is Prince Sparta—"
"You can rest assured that Prosius has a public opinion. Now you are talking about your business. Don't change the subject." Daphes said unkindly.
Crotocatax had to look directly at the problem. He hesitated for a while before frankly saying, "Father, the only time I ever went to the battlefield was when I conquered Rome many years ago. The captain hasn’t been a leader. How can he command tens of thousands of soldiers and convince them? Father, I’m not you... I don’t have the ability to command the army to win battles. joke."
Daveus listened carefully. After his son finished speaking, he said gently: "I will tell you a story... There is a vast kingdom in the far east, but this kingdom happened because of the king's incompetence. In the civil strife, there are two forces competing for this throne. The leader of one force is a general who wins the battle, and the leader of the other force is a rogue man of peasant origin. The battle was defeated, but in the end he defeated the general’s power, became king, and built a stronger kingdom..."
