Chapter 21: Mariji

"There is still a problem." Daphus regained his gaze, and asked in a positive color: "Where did you go out of the jurisdiction of the Persian royal family?"
Mariji was anxious to please Daves, seriously thought about it, and then drew a circle on the sketch: "Here! After Mespira!"
"Mespira?" Daphus looked at the pattern on the ground.
"Mespira is the former capital of Assyria, Nineveh! After passing it, it is Du Keya." Marji emphasized.
Davers nodded: "Are you familiar with Dukeya?"
"Not very familiar, just doing business with them, using food to exchange their mountain goods!" Mariji said, his face looked angry: "But they are barbarians who do not speak faith, often do not pay, still Injury, grab something!"
Daves listened carefully and turned to Mattonis and said, "Take his family to the camp and let Mercy look after it, but you must tell Melsis, don't abuse him and his wife and daughter. Don't call them slaves!"
When the voice just fell, Mariji "fluttered" and sighed: "I beg you! I beg you! Let me go! And my wife and daughter! I said everything! Please let us go..."
"It seems that you can understand Greek, and pretended not to understand." Daves said.
Mariji did not defend at this time, just bursting into tears.
"In fact, I don't let you go with your family, it's for you. Do you know that your lord - the king's brother, Little Cyrus, is already dead!"
Mariji suddenly stopped crying, and the hand holding Davers’s legs also lost strength. He asked weakly:
Is Cyrus downright really dead?

"Actually, you have already guessed it, aren't you? Otherwise, how can Tissafoni take us here, and he allows us to rob your village, because this is a punishment for the rebellion of Little Cyrus! This punishment I believe that this will never happen only! Anyone who has a close relationship with him may not escape. Are you right?"
Mariji has been sitting on the ground and is stunned.
Matones pulled him up and dragged him out.
"This person is not like an ordinary businessman." Hilos looked at Mariji and was dragged out of the tent and said to Daphus.
"You are right!" Daves nodded. The family lives in a dilapidated house, but hides a lot of gold and silver and gorgeous clothes, only the temperament of him and his wife, like an ordinary Persian businessman, but also proficient in Greek, understand so many things . Perhaps he is a relative of the little Cyrus or his supervisor, or his royal businessman. After knowing that the little Cyrus was rebellious, he hid in a remote village in his territory to avoid the disaster. If it wasn’t for the village chief’s whistle, I almost missed a big fish.
Deavers was fortunate to think about how he had tortured the village chief and his family for selective forgetting. He said to Hilos: "The captain, you have to trouble you to emphasize with Melsis, no one is allowed to harass his family, he is very useful to us! Since the little Cyrus is dead, I want to let He really trusts us!"
A soldier gave orders to his captain, and everyone present was not surprised. Davis’ leadership in the squad was established.
"Okay." Hilos walked out of the tent without hesitation.
"Picols, thank you very much! Today, you can help me a lot!" Daves turned and said to a soldier.
"It is my pleasure to be able to help you!" Pickles said slightly.
Davers pulled out two drakes into his hands.
"This...this..." Pickles deliberately quit.
Davers said: "Please accept it! I really thank you for this matter, and hope that you can keep it secret, don't let Menon know!"
Picols listened to this, no longer quit, put the silver coin in his arms, and said: "You can rest assured, I don't like that guy! Guaranteed to Hades, I will not reveal a sentence!" Pico Ols made a gesture of closing his mouth, and then excitedly said: "There is still such a job to call me next time!"
"I definitely can't miss you!" Davers laughed.
Pickles took out the tent, and Gil Gris immediately asked: "Pikols is a Persian translation of Menon. Is he reliable?"
"I heard that Menon will be Persian, and Picols has nothing to do. Instead, he is often used by Menon as a coolie. He will be stupid to offend us, not to mention that he can make money." Oliver interrupted. After he was awake, he knew that he almost went to and immediately thanked Davis. Who knows that Davers responded coldly to him. He realized what he was, so he has been quiet until now.
But as soon as he spoke, the tent fell into a short silence.
"Daves, how do you know that the Persian businessman buried the money in the yard?" Giorgios asked suddenly.
Davers understood that Gio Gris wanted to be active and said: "It's very simple. When we captured Maliji, I found that he was not only worried that his wife and daughter were being bullied by us -" Daves Speaking of this, glanced at Olivers: "The eyes still quietly sneak a glimpse of the old tree in the yard. I walked over and looked at it. There is a place in the tree with a different color. It is a new earth. Of course I will There was suspicion, and the result was not so scared. This guy was courageous and confessed."
Several people claim to praise Davis's care, especially Oliver's voice is the loudest.
Davers said to Gio Gris: "The money is of great use to us. You should go to the camp every day to check it out. Don't let the fat man take advantage of it."
"Ok."
.................................
After the Greek mercenaries plundered many times, the marching column of the team was even bigger and more bloated.
In the following days, as Mariji said, the army marched along the right bank of the Tigris River and then crossed the river to reach the city, the Nie. Here, they get another adequate supply. However, the suspicions of the Greek mercenary soldiers against the Persians have become more serious, and new rumors have been circulated among the military, resulting in an increase in the number of conflicts between the soldiers of the two armed forces.
When they finally arrived at the Zapatas River, soldiers of the two armed forces fought a large-scale battle. More than 100 people on both sides armed with weapons, killed and killed more than 10 people. If the two leaders did not arrive in time, they would send the army to separate the two sides in time. The result was unimaginable.
This caused the march to be cancelled the next day and the soldiers in each battalion were restricted from camping. Every day, they are marching. Davers are both physically and mentally exhausted. It’s rare to have a free time, and everyone sleeps a little late.
Mersey, the heavy camp, took the time to slaughter some of the looted livestock and make it into the intestines.
Just as Daves was just awake, Antonios got into the tent and looked anxious: "Daves, Menon, Clearus, Prokhsinus and many other leaders are going to the Persian military camp. Go to negotiations!"
"What!!!" Daphus stunned and sat up.
"I heard that because of the incident last night~EbookFREE.me~Clairkus immediately went to the Tisafunis negotiations, hoping to eliminate the suspicion of mutual distrust and avoid such hostile behavior. Maybe the two sides talked very well. Clairkus went directly to the night in the Persian military camp. He returned safely this morning. Then he sent people to inform the leaders of the military camps, went with him to the Persian military camp, and furthered with Tisafunis. The talks. It is said that many soldiers and team officers in other military camps opposed their past, but the final leaders still reached an agreement, they are about to leave." Antonios quickly finished the matter.

Why is there no one in our camp to inform this?
Hilos asked strangely.
"Mayon did not discuss with other people. He only quietly brought the two captains of Captis and Millstik." Antonios said with a sigh. He knew in his heart that after the last collective "forced palace" incident,
Most of the team officers and soldiers have been reluctant to obey the orders of Menon, and after Menon’s prestige is lost, they do not want to discuss them again, and directly find two squadron leaders who are willing to listen to him.
Instead of explaining it in detail, Antonios said: "I also heard the noise of the soldiers of the nearby Socrates military camp. I only knew this when I asked."
"Who are all going?" Davers stood up, dressed quickly, and asked seriously.
Anthony’s heart was
squeaky
and Devers’s expression confirmed the uneasiness in his heart:
Clarkus, Prokhsinus, Menon, Socrates, Akias, five chiefs, and More than a dozen squadron leaders."
"Come on! Go! Go take me to find them, and finish it later!" Davis put on the linen lining, and took Antonios out with anxious enthusiasm. Hilos followed them.
