But after listening to it, Midolades still wondered: "It is regrettable that the Greeks eventually lost, but what does this have to do with our Dionia?"
Henipolis, who had deliberately sold Guanzi, said with a smile: "Because some Alenians fled to Italy and established Elia with other Greek colonists, this history is engraved in Apollo in Elia. On the stone monument inside the temple. The Elias are now Dionysian citizens, then the Alenia they once established should also belong to Dionia!"
Henipolis’s explanation is somewhat arrogant, but Midorades thinks it is right. He immediately stated:
The Third Fleet will retake Alenia from Carthage and wash away the Greeks. shame!"
Davers was satisfied with his position and further encouraged: "You go back and tell the crew of the Third Fleet, recapture Alenia, not only will greatly attack the Carthaginians, but also the Greek city-states of the Western Mediterranean. Deepen the friendly relationship with Masella and become a hero in their hearts!
And as far as I know, Alenia has a well-equipped, large-scale port, which is a combination of military ports and commercial ports. It can serve as a stop for all warships of the Third Fleet, and can avoid you going back and forth. bitter. When I took Alenia, the Third Fleet could use it as a base, harassing the island of Corsica in Sardinia, attacking the mining team on the island, smashing their towns and villages, attacking their cargo ships... ..."
Mido Lades said with excitement: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, I will let the Phoenicians on these two islands not get a piece of metal!"
Daves saw that Midorades was too excited and couldn’t help but remind him: "Now I can’t get an army to support you. The task of attacking Corsica and Sardinia can only rely on the third fleet. So you must be bold and be cautious, cherish your soldiers, don't let them be too heavy, and cause subsequent plans to be impossible!"
The words of Daves made Midoradeston feel more pressure.
At this time, Klotok Katex asked: "Father, we have taken military action on Corsica, will it make the Etruscans feel dissatisfied and have other ideas?"
In fact, this problem, Klotok Katex has previously discussed with Daves in private, raised at this time, but is reminding Daves.
Davers praised his son's care and thoughtfulness, and then said in a positive way: "This does not have to worry, although the Etruscans often have trade with Carthage, they are no longer allies, but also because of Carthage. I am dissatisfied with the support of Rome, not to mention the fact that the southern Etruscan city-state has just formed an alliance with us..."
Then, Davers looked at Midorades again: "However, your warships should not appear on the sea that belongs to the Corsican land controlled by the Etruscans, and do not let the soldiers enter them. The territory to avoid excessive stimuli would have feared our mighty Etruscans... Besides, I have no other requirements. How to attack Corsica and Sardinia is up to you, I Do not interfere."
Daves said that Mondo Rades felt more pressure. He took a deep breath and said, "Yes...Yes, Your Majesty!"
Tormide looked at the back of Midolades and couldn’t help but say: "He is a little nervous."
"Nervity is a good thing, so he will be cautious when he takes action. Even if the third fleet does not achieve any decent results, as long as the fleet wanders around these two islands, it will cause great trouble to the Carthaginians. I am afraid that Mido Lades is too confident, loses vigilance, takes risks, makes the Third Fleet lose a lot, and weakens our advantage, just like... Hey!
Daphus’s words stopped short, then heavier Sighed a sigh.
Tormide knew that Davers had definitely thought of Secrian and the Sicilian fleet.
At this time, Maltius once again entered the big account: "Your Majesty, the head of the Matonis Army sent a letter to return, and Arisia surrendered!"
Davers smiled on his face: "Hades is blessed, and today is really good news!"
It’s no wonder that he is so happy that Arisia is not far from Thurst, just to the west of Lake Albalonga, a very old Latin city-state that has been the center of the western Latin region since ancient times, especially in Al After the destruction of Barlonga. As its name suggests, this Latin city-state has a very close relationship with the Latin goddess Diana Arisia, who is extremely admired by the Latins. For this reason, it has united with the Latin city-states of the West to resist the rise. Rome, but after many defeats, they also had to join the Latin-led Latin League.
After the expedition of Dafos to the Roman city, he was stationed outside the city of Thurst (the original Roman camp), and the division of the military was in the Latin city states not far from the west of Thurst, with the focus on Aresia. Under the intimidation of the army, other city-states have surrendered one after another, and only the proud Aresians refused to return to Dionia. So Daves ordered: by Matonis led the second and sixth legions, and attacked Arecia.
A few days of continuous attacks finally saw the results.
When Daves’s smile disappeared, it was followed by a harsh tone:
If you don’t take into account the feelings of the Roman civilians, the Latin city like Aria, who dares to resist us, should suffer like Gabi. The treatment, but even if it surrenders, can not light it! Heni, you inform Tapirus, let him immediately talk to the Arisian, since Aresia is the holy forest of the hunting goddess, I can make Arisia a holy place for all Latins to replace the status of the Albalonga Mountains. But since then, Ariasia has not been able to build walls, not to form an army, the population must not exceed 5,000, and for everyone Open, and its security is guaranteed by Dionia..."
"Understood, Your Majesty. Hehe... It is said that because of this Diana relationship, Arisia is still a famous medical center in the Latin region..." Henipolis reminded.
Dave's mouth is slightly stunned: "Aresia's medical skills can be compared to Dionya! I think the responsibility for this should be left to Hades!"
"Your Majesty, Arisia surrender is a good thing, but it is a pity that he has not been able to induce the Roman army!" Tolmide said with some regret.
Daves smiled and said that he didn't care too much: "The Romans have already been used once, and naturally they will become cautious. Now their main force is still stationed in Satnikum. It seems that they are ready to die. This is It is also a good thing. Without the support of the Romans, Aresia also surrendered, and other Latin city-states in the west will soon make their choices."
Speaking of this, Davis's eyes became sharp, and he said firmly: "Tormid, you are going to inform the whole army to prepare, leave Thurstron tomorrow, march southwest, to Saturni. It’s time to solve the Romans completely by camping in the north of Kum!"
Davers’s words made everyone in the big account feel excited.
"Yes, I will inform the legions immediately!" Tormide responded with excitement.
"And... before we sent messengers to these Latin city-states to persuade, that Adi's attitude was the most determined, and we also beat our messengers..." Daves said coldly.
"It is said that the Roman dictator Camillaus had lived in Adi for a long time and received strong support from Adi in the battle to expel the Gauls, so Camilos is closely related to Adi, Camilles Adi often gives Adi a lot of care in the Roman Senate, so it is not surprising that the Adi people will do this. But then, the Adi people have to give up their support for Camilos for the survival of their city-state." Rees advised.
"Since Ostia was burned down, Adi was very important to our attack on the main force of Saturnicum in Rome, because it is not far from Antiuum, not too far from the camp we are going to build, and it There is also a port that is not small..." Daphus picked up his eyes and shone in his eyes: "We need to take full control of the town, to transfer and transport the food supply of the army, so we can't accept Adi's surrender. But to completely capture it!"
.......................................
Outside the city of Satnikum~EbookFREE.me~ Thousands of Roman citizens are working tirelessly to build defensive facilities, to strengthen the city walls, to fill the villages under the city, to dig deep trenches, to set up multiple traps and traps. There are more than one sentry building between the belts, and the entire defense area is expanded outwards... The pattern of the entire city defense is quite similar to the defense camp usually built by the Dionysian army.
Because it was the first Titus that commanded the army to attack Ostia, he realized from the failure that the defensive system of Dionia was so powerful that he transplanted it after a slight modification. .
At this moment, he was standing on the head of the city to supervise the entire project. Although he saw that the entire defensive facilities were gradually forming under the sweat of the soldiers, his face did not have a trace of joy, but a look of depression.
"General, Quentus is coming." His hand whispered to him.
Titus heard the words and turned back and glanced at Quintus, who was stepping on the stone ladder to the city. The irritability on his face flashed away.
"Hey, Titus!"
Looking at Quentus on the way, Titus had no enthusiasm on his face: "When did you come back? Are the anti-air defense facilities in Antiom completed?!"
Titus’s tone was a bit of a question. Quintus even though he was somewhat unhappy, he explained:
Antium is only more than 3,000 civic soldiers. Pantius’s foot injury is basically good, he One person can complete this task, and I am there to get in the way, so I came back yesterday."
