"Friendly talks? How to talk?" Lucypus frowned, asking.
Suddenly, the gate of the venue was pushed open and the inspector Endius walked in.
The rotating chairman, Lucipus, was very dissatisfied and said: "This is the most sacred place in Sparta. As an ombudsman, don't you know the procedures that outsiders need to go through here!"
"I am sorry, the distinguished elder of Lucypus!" Endius asked for sin, and his face was still difficult to hide: "Because the Presbyterian Council has always stressed the need to keep abreast of the progress of the Corinth war, so I --"
"It seems that there is good news." Lucypus looked at him and said slowly: "Speak up, young people, let us be happy too, too much bad news during this time."
"Corinth's battle report, King Agassius captured the port of Leicaon!" Endus said loudly.
"Lake Kongon!" The elders suddenly showed a happy color.
.............................................
As the isthmus of the Central Greece, the Corinthian peninsula is the main battlefield of the Spartan alliance and the anti-Spartan alliance.
Half a month ago, the fierce battles of more than half a year made the Corinthians suffer heavy casualties and huge losses. They also made people in the city feel confused about the prospects of the war. Some citizens of Sparta began to act and they were ready to launch riots. To overthrow the oligarchy in power and let Collins surrender to Sparta. But their plans were revealed, and the authorities immediately took action and cruelly killed the pro-Spartan party.
The massacre weakened the power of Collins and caused the people to waver, so the family of the victims quietly opened the gates, allowing Praxitas to lead a heavy infantry into the outer city of Corinth.
The Corinthians hurriedly mobilized heavy forces to contain them. Their allies, Agos and Thebes, also sent reinforcements to fight. After many fierce battles, the two sides failed to completely defeat the Spartans, but they did not allow the Spartans to obtain more. The record, the Spartans occupy part of the outer city of Collins, and the Alliance is not consistent.
But the Spartan Elders Council was tired of Praxitas' long-term failure to make progress in Collins, and decided to replace him.
The news spread to Plexidasis, he was very angry, and had a headache with the endless attacks of the enemy in the city. He simply led the army to retreat from the outer city of Corinth, and did not take any offensive action, giving the Corinthians a breather. The Athenians also led many carpenters and masons to rush in, took the opportunity to repair the restored or destroyed walls, and the morale of the Corinthian soldiers was restored.
Today, on the west side of the southern end of the isthmus is Collins City, and on the east side is the affiliated city of Argolis, which is mainly guarded by the Argos. There are long wall connections between the two cities, completely blocking the land passage through the isthmus, in two At the north side of the city, there are always the reinforcements of Thebes and Athens to help each other through the isthmus passages on both sides of the east and west.
When Agassius rushed to take over the army outside Corinth, he faced the enemies whose morale was rising and the reinforcement of the city defense. After learning more about the battlefield situation, he did not continue to use the former commander of the former commander Praque Silos. Strategy.
He pretended to attack Collins City, but let his younger brother Tai Tias quietly led the fleet to cooperate closely, led the soldiers to take the warship, bypass Corinth, and suddenly landed in the port of Leicaon, north of Corinth, near the Corinth Canal.
The Lai Keon defenders were not prepared and soon made the Spartans occupy the territory.
At the time when the Spartan Elders Council got this good news, Agrasus had repeatedly repelled the army that Corinth sent to recapture the port, and then he commanded the army to capture not far from Corinth. It belongs to the port of the city of Siegion in the anti-Spartan alliance.
A few days later, Agreslaus made persistent efforts to lead the army and the warships to capture a port north of Corinth, Port of Pilion, which is the only way for Corinth to connect the Pioxia region. After the Spartans occupied it, Corinth was able to connect with Argolis in the east, and the other sides were surrounded by Spartans. More importantly, Agreslaus used this port as a base to send troops along the west side of the isthmus to the north, and soon entered the Pioxia region, which successively captured the city states of Sidon, Clone Mion and other cities. The vibrations, the rest of the city-states sent messengers to the camp of Agreslaus to seek peace, and even thebes also called the people, and finally sent messengers.
Under such a trend, even the Corinthians began to shake.
During this time, Agrasus was shrouded in the aura of victory and seemed to be an arbitrator of all Greece, washing his shame of
disability
in the past few decades.
At this time, the general of the Athens General Ifikrates led the 3,000 mercenaries he personally trained, through the road on the east side of the isthmus, first into the city of Argolis, and finally in the city of Corinth.

Udine, the capital of the former Mesapi kingdom, is located in the middle of the southern part of Apulia. It is surrounded by flat wilderness and dense forests. Agriculture and animal husbandry are relatively developed and it is still the central town of Mesapi.
At this moment, in the aristocratic parliament of Udié, the consuls from Mesapi, the city of Igati, Uzuntum, Manduria, Mesagne, Odrum, etc. At the forefront, in the center of the audience is the Udysian Archon Pahi Mulhouse, the Mesapee nobles who are tall and majestic, are distant relatives of the former Mesapea king Atas, but the political wrist is far better than His relatives, after years of hard work, have basically taken control of the Udine Aristocratic Parliament, so that he can easily be elected as the governor every year. There are often rumors about him in the city: We sent away an old king. Welcomed a new king.
"Pasimerus, let's not wait, it seems that our allies will not come." Uzentum, the consul, Karl Mulhouse couldn't help but say.
"Be patient, I think the Pucciti people will come, but they are farthest from here, and of course they will come later." Igratia's consul Timothlas persuaded.
"Timograss, I heard that you Igratia has been close to the Pucciti people in the past few years. No wonder you will speak for them. Igratia will soon become the territory of Pucciti!" West Commander Tyester taunted. After Brindisi was retaken, in view of the fact that the Mesapi residents of the city had been eliminated or resold as slaves by the Tarantum, the city-states were voted for by the tribes of the former nobles of Udys. Entered Brindisi. According to the agreement between the two parties, his tribe and Puchetti each occupy half of the city of Brindisi, and the two sides will inevitably have conflicts of interest, especially in the management of the port, which makes Teuest against Pucci The people are more resentful.
"Who said that we Petchi people will not come!" A loud voice sounded outside the venue. Prudy’s cronies, Pullo, pushed the room and strode into the venue: "If not you will attack Tarantum." The time has been delayed, let us think that you want to cancel this offensive plan, we have already come!"
Paxi Mulhouse smiled slightly: "Wait for a better time, now the opportunity has come! Tarantum suffered a heavy blow to Dionia, most of the civics lost, and Dionya in Croto It defeated Tarantum’s ally, Syracuse, and now the two sides are confronting each other in the West, which is the best time for us to be confident in attacking Tarantum!"
....................................
In the backyard of the great capital of the city of Potentia, Pu'am is negotiating with Valle.
The tribal leader said with some urgency: "The big leader, Diaonia has already occupied Copsa, and my tribal territory is no longer dangerous. It can lead the people back to the territory... but you also know that the evil of Samo The Nai people burned my territory, and the warriors of my tribe also died and injured most of them. Now I don't have enough labor to rebuild my village, so you have to give me some Samonai prisoners and enough food!"
Pu Amote showed a dilemma: "Although Davis gave us a lot of food when he left, but during this time the tribes returned to the collar and walked a lot, so the food supply in the city is still a little nervous. I can only give you a certain amount of food. If you want the tribe to survive this winter, you have to think about it yourself."
Why just let me find a way, don’t let other tribes find a way?!
Valle felt unfair~EbookFREE.me~because your tribe is close to Copthorne. Puamot whispered.
Valle was not a fool as a leader. He quickly understood the intention of the big boss: "What if the Copsa does not have enough food?"
"If Copthorn is also short of food, Pollet has already asked for help from me." Puamott said without hesitation: "Waller, Samonai is not a normal slave, your tribal warrior is too Less, can you tame them?"
"The big leader, you can rest assured. You forgot to say that the tribe of Potentia has the most experience in dealing with the Samona captives, and there will be others besides our tribe!" Valle said proudly.
Puamott did not speak. Indeed, in the past, the settlement of the Waller tribe was adjacent to the Samonai. When there was a conflict between the two sides, the captured prisoners were often handed over to his tribe, and most of his people would say Samona.
"If you didn't let us release the former Greek slaves, I wouldn't be so anxious to capture you." Valle complained again, seeing Pu'am to speak, he said busy: "I know I know! Elia is now our ally, we have to do a good relationship with it!..."
