In the end, four people turned their attention to the commander-in-chief of the coalition commander Davers.
At this moment, Daves is tangled in his heart: after experiencing the arbitrarily acting of Diomeras, Meta Pontum, and the collapse of the Heraklia coalition, he has been frustrated with such joint operations, worried that Once again dragged down by bad allies. Trifias just wanted to bring the army back to the city, and he wanted to lead the army to return to Turui immediately. But doing so will undoubtedly undermine the alliance with Tarantum, and may also affect the image of Diaonia’s efforts to establish its commitment to...
When he was hesitating, the guards came in and reported that the Mesapi people sent messengers.
Everyone is amazed.
Davers had a move in his heart and asked the messenger to come in and listen to what he was going to say?
.....................
Originally, the Meip coalition forces, after gathering and defeating the army, the Mesapi governors headed by Parsimusus thought: Although this time the battle, the final result was not very good, the coalition chose to retreat, the cavalry. It has also been hit hard, but the loss of Tarantum’s army should be even heavier. Compared with the Tarantum army, the strength of the army is more dominant than before the war. In the next battle, take the initiative and continue to attack Tarantum.
The former Puccity King Tremani, who had been blamed by several Mesapee consuls in the Ming Dynasty, for failing to block the reinforcements, expressed strong opposition. He emphasized that the main force of the Greek coalition forces, Dior The Nigerian army has a unique formation, is well-trained, and has amazing combat power. It can beat the Petchi people who occupy the land in the mountain battles. If you fight on the plains, the MVP will probably not be the main force of the Dionian army. The opponent of the Greek coalition.
The governors of the Mesapi city-states know much about the fighting power of the Puchettis, and Tremney, who has always been unruly, actually said such things, making everyone very unbelievable.
At this time, Timogras stood up and endorsed for Tremomon, and he once again emphasized the terribleness of the Dionysian army, because the Igortia heavy infantry was more than the Dionian heavy infantry formation that fought with it. In the case of thickness, it was actually defeated by the enemy and eventually led to defeat!
At the same time, he also reminded everyone: the Diaonian heavy infantry can throw a javelin and have a great kill on the infantry at close range.
The face of the consuls has finally become dignified.
Uhittum’s governor, Calminus, worried:
I heard that Dionya is a big city-state alliance on the other side of the bay, governing five or six city-states, and many other allies. The strength is comparable to that of Taran. Thum, it can easily send tens of thousands of people to support Tarantum, even if we finally defeated it, I think it can shoot tens of thousands more, and can we withstand such losses?
After a short silence, Paxi Mulhouse said helplessly: "Maybe we should talk to Diony..."
Peace talks? ! Everyone was surprised.
Only Tremomon's look was calm, and Pahimerus looked in his eyes, and he sighed in his heart: It seems that the Puchettis do not have much fighting. If they continue to fight, I am afraid they will not do their best.
Paximerus’s hopes for peace talks began to become more intense. He rose up and said seriously:
The Diaonians have never had any conflicts with us, and we are far apart, so we are with us. Fighting, it is because it is the alliance of Tarantum, to come to fulfill the covenant. It is defeated by us and there is no benefit to Diaonia. Instead, it will cause casualties for the soldiers because of the fighting. If we propose peace talks, you Want to wear Dionia, would you like to accept it?! As long as this powerful outsider leaves, there is one Tarantum left, we will..."
...........................
Igratia’s governor Timogras was the camp that volunteered to send the Greeks. When the guards confirmed that he did not carry weapons, he was allowed to enter the military account.
In the military account, in addition to the guards, there were five Greek generals. Timogras’s eyes fell on the youngest general: he should be the Dionia consul, Davers, forcing the Maple coalition forces to send messengers to Greece. The culprit of the military camp!
Out of caution, he nodded to the young general and then asked in Greek: "Dyonia's Archon Daves?"
"It's me." Davers nodded.
"It’s my pleasure to see you!" Timo-Golaz respectfully followed a Mesapee etiquette and said, "I am the Igortia governor Timo Grasse, representing the Maple Alliance, as the messenger. Come talk to you about how to end this meaningless war."
Sure enough, it is to talk! Although Daphus’s heart is happy, he said quietly:
I think you are looking for the wrong negotiation object. You should talk to the governors of Tarantum, Makars and Dai Olilas.
He has a slight side of his body and his left hand leads to the two sides.
"You just got defeated by us, you want to talk to you?!" Dai Omiras hated the Mesapi people, and because Timograss ignored Tarantum, he was even more angry: "Go back and tell Those of you, the companions in the skin, Tarantum does not accept peace talks! We must continue to attack and recapture Brindisi! If you have the courage, you can stop us!"
"Is it defeated by you?" Timogras sneered with a sneer: "The loss of the previous battle is greater, you and I are clear. If this is a failure for us, we don't mind how many times." Without the timely reinforcements of the Diaonians, you may have become a corpse, and there are still faces here yelling at me!"
In the face of the roar of Diomeras, Timogras continued to say aloud: "The warriors of Mesapi and Pucciti are ready, even if they give their lives, they will kill them. The enemy of our territory! Just don't know if the Tarantum people have such courage?"
After he finished speaking, he waited for Dimiras to refute and immediately turned to Devers to say: "The heroic heroes of the Dionys have won the respect of the Mesapi, and the Petchi King Tremo I am very admired by you, and I am also specifically asked to say hello to you on his behalf! I just want to ask Master Davers, the Daonians cross the bay and fight with us without any contradictions and conflicts. Win, no To any benefit; lost, the bones buried in a foreign land. Is it worth it?"
Daves knew that the Mesapi consul was constantly using various methods to separate the relationship between Dionia and Tarantum. He said in an aggravating tone: "Talantum It is the friendly alliance of Dionia, obeying the covenant, and assisting the allies to defend against foreign aggression. It is the responsibility of Dionia. Moreover, Dionia is obliged to maintain the peace of the neighboring Greek city-states, because only neighbors do not happen. In the war, the people of Diaonia will have a peaceful life."
The words of Daphus reveal his expectations and ambitions for Dionia.
Trifias and Tudpres listened to their ears and their eyes were bright.
And Marcus is thoughtful.
Timogras's face changed slightly. He heard the warning that Daves gave him. He quickly reacted: "Daveus, listen to what you said, you came to help Tarantum resist the aggression. But In fact, Tarantum is not suffering from the aggression of our Mesapi, but is taking the land of our Mesapi people! Manduria is the city of Mesapi! Brindisi is also Mesapi The city-state of man! From the beginning of this year, the Tarantums attacked the land of our Mesapi people, took away our Manduria and Brindisi, and killed countless Mesapi warriors. The Mesapi people, including women and children, became slaves to Tarantum! We fought back and just wanted to recapture our own land and avenge our people! Deavers, you said that Dionia has Obligation to help neighbors maintain peace and resist aggression. Does it also help the Alliance to invade the land of other countries~EbookFREE.me~kill the people of other countries?!"
Timothy's words were so impassioned that both Marcus and Diomeras had a big change, but Daphus sighed in his heart: smart, talking about the idea!
He immediately put on a look of embarrassment: "This...this..."
"Damn Mesapi, don't pretend to be a poor look!" Diomes angryly retorted: "In the past, who is invading who is! Who is the real victim! Every summer, is Who ran to the land of Tarantum, looting food and killing the people! This year we launched an attack, just to respond to the call of the goddess of vengeance, and report the blood debts you owed to Tarantum over the years!"
In the face of the strong rebuttal of Diomeras, Timorgoras said without hesitation: "Why do we invade Tarantum every year? The reason is very simple. The land of Tarantum originally belonged to We Mesapi people! A few hundred years ago your ancestors drove away the still weak Mesapi people who lived here, and took up the land!"
"How about that! It has been a few hundred years, this land belongs to us now Tarantum!"
"Since you can take it away, then of course we want to take it back!"
"Unfortunately you can't do it! On the contrary, in a few years, Manduria will become the city-state of Tarantum!"
"Dia Milas!" 攸Marcas interrupted their screams loudly. The two men quarreled and had deviated from the subject, and the three city-state governors headed by Daves had already been intolerant. .
攸Marcas quickly said: "Mesapi people, are you not here to quarrel?"
"Of course not, I am coming for peace! As Deavers said, Mesapi and Tarantum have lost too many people in the war!" Timothy Ras immediately looked awkward.
