"It's better for us to build another one..." Fibidas suggested.
Agslaus’s eyes lit up, and then he thought of something. He raised his head and smiled at Feidas. He said:
I support Dionysius now, or support the Syracuse rebels. This is not enough. We Sparta is here."
Fibidas stunned and said subconsciously: "Who is the master?" Then he understood.
Agassius looked at him and looked solemnly: "Dyonia has defeated Syracuse and made Syracuse lose so much. It has become the leader of the Great Greece and the eastern Sicily...
Moreover, listening to what you just said, Diaonia now has at least 50,000 large army, and the military organizations that they call this army, they call the 'corps', have strong fighting power, and they also have the ability to defeat Thira. The huge fleet of the Kuza Navy! ... Such a powerful force rises behind Sparta, how can I not worry about it!
What's more, Krisops had visited Turi before, and the new king of Dionia was quite dissatisfied with our Spartan assistance to Syracuse to invade the Great Greece! After the end of the war with Syracuse, Dionia, who is hostile to Sparta, came to the war that was being held in Corinth, to us in Sparta..."
Although Agassius did not finish the words, but from his lost sharp eyes, Pfeidas could feel the fear of the Spartan king on Dionya: Yes! At this time, Sparta, which was hampered by the war in Asia Minor and the Corinth War, could not stop tens of thousands of troops from landing on the coast of Sparta under the leadership of a powerful fleet!
But in the heart of Fibidas, he was busy saying: "When the Dionyns trapped the army of Syracuse in the Siri court, I went to see the King of Dionia, Davis, who concealed it. Said, 'As long as Sparta is not an enemy of Dionya, Diaonia does not intend to be an enemy of Sparta."
"Really?! You talk in detail about the situation when you met!" Agslaus came to the spirit.
After listening to the description of Fibidas, Agassius pondered for a long time and sighed: "Diagna may want to be the second Syracuse, but it is indeed a Thira not bound by Sparta. Kuza, this makes us feel very difficult... Phibidas, you know that Talantum sent messengers to Sparta yesterday, I hope to get our help, because Dionia wants to put Tarantum Enter its alliance."
"What?! Dionia wants to annex Tarantum, this is never allowed! Tarantum is our sub-state!" Filibidas was shocked and opposed without thinking.
"The young New King of Diaonia has a lot of ambitions, but no Greek city-state can stop him now!" Agassius looked helpless and he fell into meditation again.
Finally, Agreslaus made up his mind. He held his left leg in one hand and held the wooden table in one hand. He said to Fibidas with a serious look: "Now we must stop the Diaonians from Syracuse. And its allies will further suppress or even occupy! Tomorrow, I will propose at the Elder Council... Since Dionysius has lost control of Syracuse, we can only temporarily support the rebels, quickly Restore the strength of Syracuse to counter the power of Dionia in the Western Mediterranean. At that time, you will travel to Syracuse as a Spartan messenger to resolve its civil strife as soon as possible!"
"I understand!" Filibidas nodded immediately.
"In addition, since the new king of Dionia has expressed no hostility towards us, then we will send a guest to Sophos to go to Great Greece to talk to him well, hoping to develop an agreement that can be restrained. A look at Dionia can also make us feel at ease!"
Pfeidas listened to the words of Agassius, and there was a bit of uneasiness in his heart. He wanted to remind a few words and did not know where to start.
Agassius did not notice the look of Fibidas. He was still immersed in thinking: "...hey, our war with Persia... and the wars of Corinth, Thebes, Athens, Agos continued. It’s been too long! Going on this will only weaken our Spartan power and reduce our prestige in the Greek world. Instead, we will benefit the forces like Diaonia! I have to think of a way to end this. a long war of meaning!"

After the failure of the siege, Hilos summed up the experience, re-created the siege equipment, and formulated the siege plan.
Two days later, Hilos once again attacked the city of Medma, and the fierce battle broke into the afternoon, and the Dionysian-Lijim coalition occupied the city of Medma.
According to the orders of Daves, this time, Hilos was not soft. He captured the Medma people in the city, turned them all into slaves, and sent troops back to Turui.
This act of killing chickens and scaring monkeys shocked Lockley and Tarantum, especially Locke. The fall of Medma meant that the Dionyrian army in the west could no longer be hindered and could enter through the mountain road. The Lockley Territory, and Lockley will also face the double-sided attack between Dionya and Calella.
What makes Lockley worry is that through this period of understanding of the North War situation, they sadly found that the expeditionary army of Syracuse itself is still difficult to protect, it is impossible to bring any hope to Locke!
Under the pressure of the majority of the members of the council, the chief general, Demodoc, had to decide to betray his brother-in-law, send messengers to the West Chamber, and summon Dionya.
However, how can Daves easily surpass Lockley in the case of mastering the absolute advantage? He proposed two conditions: First, Demodokas and his cronies must be expelled; second, Locke must Incorporated into the Union of Dionia.
The news was passed back to Locke, and the people were at a loss.
At this moment, Daves had no intention of taking care of Rocky, who had been stirred up by his words. He was prepared to accept the surrender of the Syracuse army in the city of West Riding.
Initially, Fassipsas sent messengers to the Camp of Dionynia, just wanting to stop and seek peace.
However, Daves categorically refused, and he undoubtedly proposed to the messenger that the Syracuse army in the city of Sirikit must surrender unconditionally, and that Dionia will guarantee their lives!
Of course, he made a promise: Deonia will send them safely back to their hometown in less than three months, but this does not include the hiring of thousands of Dionysians!
At the same time, Davers also took the initiative to introduce the messenger to the status quo in eastern Sicily, and showed him the letters written by the city-states such as Kataney, Sikuri, and Leotini.
The shock in the messenger’s heart was overwhelming, and he returned to the West Chamber.
As soon as he entered the city, he was stopped by the soldiers and could not wait to ask about the negotiations.
In the face of the three-tiered and three-storey, the soldiers who surrounded him were confusing, and the messenger finally confessed the negotiation process.
The soldiers never imagined that they had gone to battle thousands of miles away, but there had been riots in their hometowns. It is no wonder that Dionysius would leave them and flee back to Sicily alone!
Compared with the news that the Syracuse generals such as Fassisas and the Syracuse generals brought back the messengers, the soldiers were completely flustered. They gathered again in front of the commander’s house and shouted "Don't promise Dionia." The slogan of people's demands, we have to go home, and even several times injured the guards, and forced to break into the house, so that Faxi Pesas and others were frightened.
At this time, it was learned that the Nuomibian cavalry, who would not be let go by the Dionyrians, tried to escape from the West Chamber in order to survive, and suddenly launched an attack on the unguarded Syracuse defending soldiers.
At the same time, Leiptines, who realized that the situation was not good, led more than 20 warships that were willing to follow him, drove off the port, and was intercepted by the ready-made Dionia fleet.
After a sea chase, seven ships fled, and the rest of the ships were either captured or sunk, including the ship of Leptinies, who was rescued from the sea by the Diaonian sailors. Become a prisoner.
On this day, there was chaos in the city of Xi Liting.
The Diaonian detective outside the city is 100 meters away from the city wall, and you can hear the screams and screams in the city.
They immediately returned the news to Davers.
Davers did not take any action.
The unrest in the city lasted for one day.
On the second day, the West Gate opened wide, and the generals such as Faxi Pesas led the soldiers who took off their armor and threw off the shield spears, as well as more than 30,000 people, including free men and slaves, surrendering to Dionia. At the same time, they also presented the first level of hundreds of Numidians who made the chaos in the city yesterday and were finally surrounded by the killing.
The entire camp of Dionya was thunderous, and after a few months of hard work ~EbookFREE.me~ finally completely destroyed the invasion army of Syracuse!
Davers ordered the tens of thousands of prisoners to be detained, and led the troops to settle in the city of West Riding, and arranged to re-clean and repair the city that was ruined by the Syracuse army.
.......................................
The Syracuse rebel envoy Ferro Sanus originally planned to land in Crotone, and then came to the Camp of Dionia. He did not expect to be intercepted by the Dania fleet near the sea.
He knew that the Syracuse army had all surrendered to Dionia, and he was shocked. He originally wanted to negotiate with Dionia as a bargaining chip by "suggesting the Syracuse army", but now it is empty.
Uneasy in his heart, he landed at the port and soon saw Davers.
Daves once heard of the famous Sicilian poet in the mouth of Ansitanos, but he obviously did not have the poetry of Yaxing, but the straightforward Firzanu who wanted to return to Siracusa prisoner. Sis said that Diaonia and Syracuse are in a state of war, so it is impossible for Dionia to release them at this time, so that they can pick up the shield spear and fight against Dionia after they return!
