By the end of the third act, the cheerful music sounded, the actors on the field quickly lined up in a neat triangle. When they began to indulge in dancing, Max and other Roman soldiers had their eyes wide open. They had never seen such a strange dance. With the ups and downs of the temperament, the actors are sometimes masculine, sometimes soft, sometimes funny, gimmicks, waists, and squats... These dance moves are unheard of, unseen, but so close to the music, so neat Consistent, let everyone see the blood, the whole body is shaking with the music, want to dance.
In fact, when the music rang, many Deonian soldiers stood up and sang the melody, swaying their heads, swinging their bodies, and dancing with the actors on the field.
This drama lasted for more than an hour. At the end, the audience cheered, and even many Roman soldiers could not help but scream along with their comrades.
But soon, the Romans stopped yelling, and the cheers of the Dionian soldiers were even more enthusiastic, because at this time in the center of the venue was their beloved King Davers.
Daves was wearing the same black lining as the soldiers at the moment, holding a wine glass in his hand and looking around. He said with a solemn voice: "Brothers, this time you only spent four months on the expedition to Latin. Conquered Rome and the surrounding city-states, saved our allies, and lifted the threat to the north of the kingdom. You will be engraved with stone tablets for this war, remembering for future generations! Your loved ones will be proud of you, the kingdom. I will be proud of you! Here, on behalf of the Senate, the representative of your commanders will honor you with a glass of wine, thank you for the blood and sacrifices you have made in this war!"
Davers said, bending down, holding the glass in both hands, holding his head high and slowly turning around in place.
At this moment, the tens of thousands of people in the wilderness are silent, only the sea breeze.
Davers regained his head and shouted again: "This glass of wine respects you, the heroes of the kingdom! Cheers!"
In the wilderness, the land suddenly thundered: "Cheers, squat!!!"
The Dionysian soldiers all raised their glasses, shouting excitedly, and some even shed tears.
Daves drank dry, wiped the wine stains on his lips, reached out and pressed down, indicating that the surroundings were quiet, and then he said loudly: "The drama that was just performed, can't you look good?"
"good looking!!!"
"Next, I am also performing a show for you?"
"Good!!!" The soldiers shouted excitedly.
"This is a song I wrote for you!" Daves said, the soldiers were more excited and more looking forward to it.
Daves coughed twice and the entire venue was quiet.
"We are soldiers of the Dionyrian Army,
a warrior who defends the security of the kingdom,
Pick up the dear long shield and the stab gun,
Going to the battlefield without hesitation
Parents are not willing to see us off.
The eager expectation of his wife and children at home,
With our thoughts, we went to the battlefield and won glory to share with them;
We are soldiers of the Dionysian Jun..."
This song, Daves has been brewing for some time, the original song from the previous Soviet famous song "Katyusha", the melody is simple and beautiful, the rhythm is light, and there is a touch of romance in the heroic, very suitable for the soldiers in Sing in march and battle. Daves took it out at this time, hoping to inspire the soldiers to overcome the long-term battle burnout, renew their enthusiasm, and devote their enthusiasm to the next war against Carthage.
Sure enough, the soldiers liked the song after listening to it. Because of its simple melody, many soldiers will soon be able to sing in a low voice. When Daves sang the third time, the soldiers can already sing loudly. The whole venue is full of singing and lively.
After Davers sang, the songs around him had not stopped, and the soldiers were completely intoxicated.
After a while, the venue was a bit quieter.
Davers asked aloud: "Brothers, is it nice?"
"Too good, sire!!!"
"Want to know the name of this song?!"
"miss you!!!"
"It's called "The Song of the Dionysian Legion!"
Not only the soldiers, but even the officers were surprised: "Is this a song for ourselves?!!"
Pride and pride are filled with everyone's chest. They stopped singing and once again sang in a louder voice: "We are the soldiers of the Daiyan Army..."
They sang so much, the fanatical atmosphere also infected the Roman soldiers, although they did not understand the meaning of the song, but also whispered the tune, this song is really catchy.
Singing over and over again, the Dionian soldiers remembered the entire song and the lyrics.
Davers once again signaled that they were quiet, and said with a loud voice: "Next, the heads of the army of Amintas and Matonis will perform wrestling for everyone. Do you want to see it?!"
"Want to see!!!" The soldiers heard such a good thing and shouted excitedly.
Wrestling is the most common athletic event in Greek sports. The soldiers of Dionia have been practicing from small to large. Wrestling in normal military training is also a routine project to train soldiers, but they have never seen two. The head of the high-ranking army is wrestling, and the heart is naturally very curious.
According to the tradition of Greek wrestling, both players should be naked and painted with olive oil, but the autumn night is still a bit cold, the two regiments are not too young, in order to prevent the cold, they are wearing black lining, but this It did not affect the enthusiasm of the soldiers. When they stood in the center of the venue, the shouts around them were even more heated.
"Ready?" Davers asked with a smile.
Amintas stared at the opponent and raised his chin: "Matonis, you always love to grab me. Today I will let you know who is the most powerful warrior in the kingdom!"
Mattonis blinked and said in disapproval: "Old captain, you are older than me, rest assured, I will not make full effort."
"Want to irritate me?" Amintas grinned and became serious. His right foot took a small step backwards, half-baked, bowed up, arms wide open, ready to go.
When Mattis saw it, he immediately prepared for the wrestling.
Davers turned into a referee at the moment and shouted: "Begin!"
The two heads of the army screamed at the same time and rushed to each other.
The venue suddenly boiled up. The soldiers of the First Legion and the Second Legion fought desperately to cheer for their respective regiments. The soldiers of other legions also cheered for the two officers who were very famous in the army. If no team officers maintained Order, most soldiers will probably flock to the center of the venue. Even if they couldn't leave the place, they all stood up, waving their arms and jumping, and the scene was very hot.
In such an atmosphere, Amintas and Matonis had already thrown the words of "just acting, not too serious" that Devers said, and they became more and more motivated. To completely defeat the other party.
The two sides struggled for a while, tired and panting, and even the lining was torn apart. Finally, Amintas, who was 6 years older than Matonis, fell to the ground because of lack of strength and lost the game.
Matones immediately lifted him up.
When Amintas took the dust off his body, he said with a dissatisfied attitude: "The kid, if you are ten years earlier, you will definitely not fall, but now... I am old..."
Mato Nice, who took advantage of the cheap, didn't argue with him, just laughing on his face.
At this time, Davers said loudly to the soldiers around him: "Soldiers, the wrestling performances of the two regiments just now are not wonderful?!"
Wonderful!!!
the soldiers shouted excitedly.
Davers pointed to the two people who were taking the dust and said seriously: "The head of the Arminus Army is 54 years old. The head of the Matois Army is 48 years old. They are old people at the age, but they are still physically strong. Agile, not weaker than your young people, this is the result of their long-term practice. Therefore, you should learn from the two heads of the army. Perseverance training can not only enhance your skills in killing the enemy, but also gain more Fighting, can also make you healthy and young, do you say right?!"
"Yes!" The soldiers, especially the soldiers of the First Army, shouted ~EbookFREE.me~ This shouting eliminated the embarrassment of Amintas.
The next performances were Epiphanes and Olivers, both of whom were cheerful and lively generals. They played the inverted walk, which did not meet the expectations of all the soldiers, and their funny performance. Also make them laugh.
Next, the third army leader Lizaru and the mountain squad leader Izam's sprint race, the cavalry regiment head Rydes and Kuchius's equestrian performance, the sixth army chief Trotillas and the court guard captain The heavy infantry confrontation of Martius, the 3rd Fleet led the climber competition with Midorades and the crew...
The generals, who were very prestigious and commanded the army, were now performing in the center of the venue. They didn’t even scream and scream, and they were so dusty that they made the soldiers feel very novel and let them The psychology gained a certain balance, which is one of the main reasons why Davers insisted on letting the generals perform for the soldiers on this special night.
However, for the soldiers of the Roman reserve brigade and the Roman aristocrats who surrendered, although they were surprised by the fact that the Dionysian generals were not able to stand up and be able to mingle with the soldiers, they were not like the soldiers of the Dionia. Excited, after all, they were unfamiliar with these Dionyrian generals, and they didn’t feel deeply until Sexus stood in the middle of the venue.
