Vol 6 Chapter 66: Syracuse is ready to go


Davers turned his back on the horse and held down some stunned horses. He said with confidence: "The adults, wait for me to win!"
When he finished, he turned the horse's head and squeezed his legs. The restless horse carried him away and galloped along the long queue of the team. All the way was accompanied by the spontaneous cheers and expectations of the people: "Daveus, please bring them back safely!"
"May Hades bless you to win easily!"
..............................
There are two routes from Turai to Potentia: one is across the wooden bridge of the Clatti River, west to Bisnia, then to Cosenza, then to the north, to the city of Vig, to La Oss, take a boat to Picosis, finally arrive in Potentia, or take a road from Laos, take Niutum, Grummentum, and finally arrive in Potentia; the second is from Tuli Yi Xiangxi, the trekking map - Wu Avenue, arrived in Niutum, and then north to Potentia.
Due to the completion of the map - Wu Avenue, the team from the Turui to Niutum can be reached in as little as three days. For the deep-skilled Dave, it is of course to choose the next one. route.
On the second day of entering the western mountains, Davers received a battle report from Grummantum: the Samonais took the city of Poseidon.
Davers was immersed in meditation, and soon he negotiated with Antonios and Arminus to finally change the original plan and let the messenger quickly return to inform Grummentum and Picosi. Sis is ready immediately.
Three days later, Davers led the army to the river fortress, where he unexpectedly saw Henipolis.
"Herney, how are you here?!" Daphus asked with a slight surprise.
"I haven't seen you for a long time! I heard that you have to go to Potentia, so I will come to greet you." Henipolis smiled happily and expressed his greetings.
Daves looked at Henipolis, who was not much older than himself, and he was moved a little, but he cautiously asked: "How is the situation in Lars City now?"
"Very stable!" Henipolis blurted out and saw Daphus's skeptical look. He said, "It's really much better! Since Ansantas teacher advised me, I have something to do with my uncle now. They discussed that the uncle is now willing to implement some of the bills I have issued..."
"That's good." Daves nodded, not saying much. After all, Heinepolis was already the head of the state. He didn't want to slap on the internal affairs of Raos. He looked at Henipolis, right color. Said: "But you are just right, I am also preparing to find you. I just heard a message, the Samonais occupied Poseidon."
"I heard it too." Heinepolis did not understand: "Does this affect Ramos?"
Davers said straightforwardly: "I plan to lead the army from the port of Laos to Picosis. I calculated that the load of a passenger ship of 50 people, at least 400 ships to carry this unit. Boat, this is not a cavalry and a heavy camp... Heni, do you think that Raos can provide so many ships?
Davers looked at Henipolis with concern.
"Of course no problem!" Henipolis said with pleasure: "Laos can requisition merchant ships to transport troops for adults... but I have a small request." Here, Heinepolis reveals a trace A smug smile.
"What requirements?" Davers didn't have time to talk to him and asked directly.
"As a member of the Dionysian League, in accordance with the Covenant, Raos should send troops to join with Dionia. I hope that I will lead the army of Laos to go with you to Potentia!" Polis looked forward to watching Davers. After the initial freshmanship of the city-state governor, he was tired of dealing with so many things all day, facing so many obstructions, and wanted to go out. Distraction, the arrival of Davers, gave him a good opportunity.
"Yes." Dafoss said that he agreed. As a dynasty of Deonia, it is its duty to send troops to it. It is led by Henipolis and can add a little prestige to this young man who has just served as the consul.
..............................
Just as Daves changed the marching route and turned to Laos, the port of Siracusa had been filled with thousands of ships, and there were thousands of ships outside the port, which almost controlled Syracuse. The passenger ships and merchant ships of the Sicily city-state are concentrated in the sea of ​​Syracuse, completely transforming the Dagang (a circular bay naturally formed outside the port of Syracuse) into a land paved by ship plates. In the port and the city, there are more than 100,000 people who are busy with the cross-sea expedition of the army...
Such a grand and spectacular scene made Fibidas from Sparta stunned.
Dionysius glanced at him and pointed to the troops gathered in the port, the crowds, and waiting to board the ship. He lamented: "A few decades ago, Athens sent more than 40,000 troops to Sicily in an attempt to conquer. Syracuse, at the time, although our Syracuse people did not give in, they all panicked all day, thinking that the disaster in Syracuse is coming... If today--"Dionysius’s force In front of the wave of fists, the tone of aggravation is full of pride and pride: "The Athenians dare to come again, I only need to send half of the army, they will be able to come back!"
Fibidas is still rude to say: "Dionysius, do not say anything else, do you send such a huge army, is it because of your enemy - the existence of Dionya?!

Dionysius twitched a few corners of his mouth and then laughed happily: "Dyonia people are afraid that they are going to have a chance to beat the Samonets now... Phibidas, I sent nearly 80,000 people. The powerful army is mainly to deal with the South Italian coalition. Although each of the big Greek city-states is not strong enough, it can be a little troublesome to add together. In addition, after defeating those city-states, some troops must be stationed in the city so that Let them obey, are you saying?"
Listening to the laughter of Dionysius, Phibidas was very harsh.
Thinking of the last time he came to Syracuse, Dionysius was not so arrogant. He was more respectful to the Spartan messenger, but now Sparta is in the midst of war, and Syracuse is in a strong position. Growth, Sparta's demand for Syracuse is much larger than that of Syracuse's demand for Sparta, and it is time-shifted... Febidas thinks of it here, forcibly pressing the dissatisfaction and not speaking. .
Of course, Dionysius is also a stop, no longer stimulating this young and powerful Spartan general, after all, he needs him in the battle against Dionia.
The two fell into a cold silence, and they all turned their eyes to the harbor under the tower.
After a while, the commander of the Navy, Lept Tines, boarded the tower at the western end of the island of Ortigia. He said with respect to the helpless Dionysius: "Big brother, the soldiers are already on." If you are on the boat, just wait for you to post the order and then lead them to the Great Greece."
"Know it." Dionysius nodded and said to Fibidas: "We should go on, don't let the army wait."
After he turned to the next tower, Pfeidas followed.
A gorgeous four-horse chariot has been waiting under the tower, and Dionysius directly straddles the chariot, and does not invite Fibidas to share the same meaning.
Next to the guards brought the horses, and Pfeidas and Leptines turned over.
"Depart." Dionysius said that the hundred cavalry in front of the road went to the road, the hand shakes the reins, the horse screams and begins to pull the chariot.
The rear hundred cavalry also followed the chariot, Dionysius was tightly centered, and the entire team passed through the tall wall that separated the island of Ortigia and the city of Syracuse, driving through the city. At the center, there are already many people waiting on both sides of the street.
When the cavalry passed, they cheered, and Dionysius kept beckoning in the chariot to respond, which made Pfeidas, who was riding on his side, confused: not to say Syracuse Do you hate the dictatorship of Dionysius? How does it seem that Dionysius is still very popular with the people?
In fact, the Syracuse’s feelings for Dionysius are complex: on the one hand, they hate Dionysius’s high-pressure rule and levy; on the other hand, they also enjoy Dionysius’s The security, power, glory and pride that Syracuse brings can conquer the great Greece, and there will inevitably be a lot of wealth and land flowing back to Syracuse, which is what the people are eager to get.
Dionysius, who is standing in the carriage at the moment, is enjoying the feeling of waving to the public. He has not held a public gathering for seven or eight years because he is afraid of being assassinated and rioted. He even thinks: Hearing It is said that Dionya has a kind of "triumphic" victory celebration, which can give the generals who won the victory with great glory~EbookFREE.me~ This time conquered the great Greece, after returning, must also be in Syracuse The city held my own triumphal!
The team entered the port and the ministers had already waited in front of the dock.
"Dionysius adults!"
"General!"
"The full power general!"
......
Everyone paid tribute to them.
Dionysius, a golden armor, walked down the carriage and waved goodbye to everyone.
Finally, he came to philistos and held his hands hard: "Philip, after I left, Syracuse entrusted you!"
"Adult, you can rest assured! I will do my best to ensure the safety of Syracuse until you win back!" Philips said solemnly: "Wait Marseas led the team to destroy the Lijim people. After the city built on the Mile Peninsula, you will let him immediately return to the army and stay in Syracuse!"
