Davers seemed to think of something, turned to look at the son who stood by the side: "Croto, give you a task, take a few staff to the camp of the reserve team, seriously teach the soldiers to play rugby and football, let them Being able to play, I will let Tormide extend the preparations for the brigade as far as possible..."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will teach them in the shortest possible time!" After Klotok Katex solemnly replied, he couldn't help but ask: "Can I play with them?"
"This has to ask you, Uncle Mathonis." Daphus smiled again and looked at Matonis.
Faced with the eager eyes of Croto Katex, Matones chose to give in: "This... of course."
After the celebration of Rome that day, Sextus now knows that Klotto Kataks is the son of King Duffus. It can be seen that Daves attaches importance to the Roman reserve team. Of course he is on Clotokatta. The addition of Kesi expressed a warm welcome.
"Your Majesty, we will not attack Satnikum, then for Antiuum and Willetley?" Oliver reminded.
"For the time being, send the cavalry to watch them, wait for the football and football games to discuss." Daves said so, he has a plan in mind, he is ready to turn the next offensive target to Antioch. Mum, because there are not many defenders in the city, but also a port city, it can be more convenient to transport heavy maritime transport, while also exerting pressure on the Saturnicum defenders.
"Your Majesty, the Carthage army has landed in Sicily. This time, the last time, our army in Sicily will face a huge threat. Should we end the war in Latin and rescue Sicily as soon as possible?!" Amin Tas was unwilling, so the tone of his speech was a bit heavy.
Davers looked at him and looked serious. "I have already said that the soldiers, like us, are all long, not iron. They need proper rest and entertainment to enjoy their melancholy. Emotions. Go back and see your first legion. How many new faces have you changed compared to when you first arrived at Wolsey! Don’t you have a bit of awkwardness! Since you all say that the Carthage army is threatening Sicily, then We have paid countless soldiers’ deaths and injuries, and attacked Saturnicum. It is indeed possible to end the war in Latin as soon as possible. But leading such a half-armed army to face the army of Carthage, do you think it can be defeated?"
Daphus’s voice was not big, but anyone could feel the anger in his words, and the big account seemed to have blown into the cold wind, and almost everyone had a glimpse of it.
Amintas turned red, but did not dare to speak again.
When Dafos saw it, he smiled a little and eased his tone. He said slowly: "We don't attack Satnikum, it doesn't mean we let it go. The camp will continue to push down the city and clear the traps under its city. The encirclement circle will be tightened; the artillery guns should bombard the city wall every day and throw fireballs into the city; the siege soil barriers should be built as soon as possible, so that the light infantry can attack the Roman soldiers in the city at a distance... In short, let the Roman garrison always In a state of intense exhaustion!"
Daves said here, suddenly looking at Syxtus in the far corner, whispered a question: "Sexus, before we attacked Saturnic, I have let from Capitolin The Roman family who came down from the mountain went to the city to persuade them. Why didn’t the effect be good?
The eyes of the people were transferred to the Roman general. The young Sexus was not nervous because of his origin. He looked complicated and said: "I think this...may be related to Camilos, he Very respected by the Roman citizens who came from these nobles, they also set an example for them to learn. He sent back the family you gave him under the city of Rome. There will be some citizens in the city who will learn from him. The Roman nobility defends his clan. Benefits, will try to obtain honor for the family, so in the past ... surrender to the enemy ... will be regarded as a shame, so many people may learn from Camilles, other people have other ideas in mind I will follow suit for the time being... and then we will attack too quickly, and the defenders in the city will resist all the time. Naturally, no one will quietly surrender and surrender..."
"Camilus is a great Roman! No matter how people do things, people can't blame, and such a big age is good at learning. You see that the defense facilities he placed under the city is to learn from us, but also to improve. But let us eat a lot of suffering! Unfortunately, according to the Thurstone's story, he has been paralyzed, it is said that even talking is a little difficult, it seems that it will not live for a long time..." Daves said with exclamation With.
The heads of the army heard this, more or less convinced, and Sexus's face naturally showed a bit of sorrow.
Davers did not stop on this topic. He looked at Sextus and said: "It is the beginning of August, and it is about to reach the harvest season. Usually, at this time, the food in the family of the Dionynia is running out. I am waiting for the harvest of new food. I think the Latins should be the same. Camilles led the army to retreat to Saturnicum, and even if there is a certain grain reserve, I believe it will not be too much. The soldiers, I believe, will not last long. When the time comes, these families will go down to the city every day to persuade them. Do you think those Roman soldiers who are tired and hungry and always nervous can still adhere to the honor they admire?"
Sextus thought seriously and then honestly replied: "I think there are many people who can't do it."
"Yes, I can't do it. Hungry is a painful thing than death." Daphus raised his eyebrows and said, "As long as a small number of people choose to surrender, it will affect other Rome." The defenders, their morale will quickly fall down until the final collapse... Sometimes killing with a soft knife is more effective than a positive hard fight."
"Your Majesty is right. We don't attack, but it's easier to attack Saturnic City, and it can greatly reduce casualties!" Tormmid immediately praised.
Several military leaders also expressed their approval. Only Amintas did not speak, and some of them did not agree.
Davers looked in his eyes and didn't care too much. When he saw Martius walked into the big account, he asked, "What?"
"Your Majesty, Midorades sent a messenger."
"Let him come in."
After the third fleet’s messenger respectfully bowed to King Daves, he said excitedly:
Reporting, our 3rd fleet captured Corsica’s Alenia yesterday!
Everyone in the account heard the news and was taken aback: to know that Alenia is the largest city-state in Corsica, the size of its city is no smaller than that of Adi and Antiu, and the third fleet has only 6,000 fleets. Infantry, and no heavy infantry, actually captured Alenia in such a short period of time? !
"How did you capture Alenia?" Davers asked curiously, and the other generals also raised their ears.
The messenger immediately told the whole process of conquering Alesia.
"Be good at listening to the advice of the people, once the plan is put into serious implementation, Midorades did a pretty good job!" Dafoss loudly praised: "It is necessary to develop the most effective operational plan based on the situation of the enemy and me, and It’s not quite dry, so that you can win and the casualties are small. From this point of view, Midolades is already a good commander! The commander of the fleet infantry of the Third Fleet is called... ......"
"It's called Maiantid." Tormmid immediately whispered.
"Meanid, um, I remembered, he is also very good!" Daves seriously praised.
Several military leaders also expressed congratulations on this victory, but the look was somewhat complicated. After all, the Navy successfully captured a city-state without the help of the infantry regiment.
Amintas felt that what Daphus had said was telling him.
"Your Majesty, Midorades commander wants your consent, and goes south to attack the Phoenician town of Sardinia." The messenger saw Davis happy, and immediately said that he was hot.
"Go back and tell Mido Lades. I told him before that he can decide his own target according to his own situation." Daves was in a good mood and smiled and said: "Now he has captured Alenia. I have already established a firm foothold on my brother Lenin. Of course, I can choose the target of the attack according to my own situation, but you will go back and tell him a word, just like the attack on Alenia, continue to use more brains and reduce the death and injury of soldiers.
"Your Majesty, I remember."
After the messenger left, Daves looked around at the crowd and said with enthusiasm: "You, Alexis have captured Kautim, Benevenvent, and Kautini are completely disabled, Hilini The tribes have already returned to us, and Karachini and the Pentini have retreated from the mountains and are unable to fight back. The battle of Samona is nearing the end.
And Latin, here, almost all of the Latin city-states have surrendered, and the surrounding forces have expressed their friendship to us. Assisi has managed Rome well and has maintained stability. When the harvest is harvested in autumn, the Romans will get benefits again. The support for Dionynia will further deepen ~EbookFREE.me~ and the supply of military food for the entire Wang team will be greatly improved.
Just now, the 3rd Fleet sent good news. Corsica’s Carthage forces have been cleared. They will also enter Sardinia... Now, the war in Diaonia from north of Lijim has stabilized. The battlefields everywhere do not occupy a big advantage, that is, they are about to end.
In the case that the entire war situation is beneficial to us, the Carthage army has once again landed in Sicily. In my opinion, it is not a bad thing, but a good thing. The Sicilian fleet occupies the advantage of the sea, and Plessous and Cipros have strong abilities. They can resist the attack of the Carthaginians for a period of time, dragging the Carthage army and killing them. Wait until we end the war in Rome, gather the army, and rush to Sicily to gather in the army of Carthage! Until then, I don't believe that Carthage has the ability to send another huge army!
Daphus’s words made the generals feel very excited.

On the third day of the arrival of Leo Tizides, he was ready to leave the city to meet the enemy. He even had no time to wait for the arrival of the Pachinus reinforcements. Why is it so anxious?
