Vol 8 Chapter 311: Rebellion


Zamoratis is the son of Tessitis, who was originally an old sailor in the port area of ​​Syracuse. He was respected for his superb craftsmanship and nautical experience. During the Nanyi War, he and Several other people, with the help of the Syracuse people, united the people in the port area and helped Herolis overthrow the tyranny of Dionysius, and then during the first rule of Syracuse in Herros. He was elected general.

However, Taiaggenis and Falekus and others conspired to drive away Herrus, and also canceled some of the policies implemented during the Khullis administration, which involved many interests of the port area. For example, let the people in the port area return the land of the original mercenary that was obtained... Taxisis was very angry after hearing that he rushed to the council and argued with Taigenes, Falex and others. She returned with resentment. After returning home, she fell to the ground and was depressed.

At that time, Zamoratis was still young, but he hated the people of Taigenes and Falekus, and because Tessitis usually talked about the help of the Diaonians from time to time at home. Morattis has always been very fond of the Dionyns in his young mind.

Tessitis died for the benefit of the port people, how can the port people forget, and after the situation in Syracuse resumed stability, the people in the port area gained some rights, and they elected Tishtis’s brother, Chiktas, to take office. The general, and the already grown Zamoratis, gradually gained prestige in the port area because of Tessitis.

At this point, Zamoratis loudly reminded: "You forgot how my father died! You forgot how they dealt with you! Selekaikus, a despicable villain, because there is With the support of Taiaggenis, he was able to enter the council, but by falsifying the facts to destroy your reputation and preaching himself, the result became a hero in the hearts of the people who did not know the truth!

These senior team officers, who have not received the benefits of Falekus, they always oppose your proposal in the council, so your proposal can not always be passed at the council, the result is the port area People think that you are very incompetent, can't do anything!

And the soldiers who are desperately rushing up under the stage, why are they willing to follow Selekaikus, and you are not commanding? Because only their fertile land was not deprived by the council, Taigengens deliberately did this, in order to let our entire port area people no longer unite, hate each other, fight each other... and then continue, my father and uncle, your It’s all in vain to work hard, and we’ll lose everything and become a poor porter in the past, completely at the mercy of the people in their city!

Uncle, can't go on like this anymore, we are fed up with the insidious and hypocritical rule of Syracuse, we want to be a Diaonian, to live a new, affluent life!


The words of Zamoratis hit the heart of Hiktas. He looked at the eyes of the blind man from the painful dignity of the beginning and finally turned soft. He said with emotion: "Zamoratis, you really are When you grow up, your father will feel very gratified!"

After that, he strode to the platform, facing the chaotic square, and pointing to the soldiers who were rushing to the platform. He shouted in a serious voice: "The brothers of the port, I am your commander, Hick. Tas! These soldiers are traitors to our porters! Now I order you to pick up the weapons, attack them and take them all down!"

Hitaks has been a general in the port area for several years. Although it has been suppressed and isolated by the democratic and neutral parties of the council, some people in the port area are dissatisfied and misunderstood by him, but he is still the most prestigious in the port area. One, there are still many people who believe in him and follow him.

What's more, yelling "Hitaks kills! He is a traitor! He wants to sell Syracuse!..." Most of the soldiers who want to kill the platform and rescue the captive senior team officers are mostly The deliberate care of the deliberation, the life is not bad, the difference in wealth and the enjoyment of political rights, so that when they face their former companions, they will naturally have a sense of superiority in status, arrogance and contempt lead to more and more estrangement deep.

And Hitaks’s order gave the inferior soldiers a chance to retaliate, and with Artemis’s men deliberately guiding them, more than half of the soldiers waved spears and shorts and pointed out to Hitaks. The "enemy" launched an offensive.

The soldiers who rushed back to their team officers basically gathered under the platform. When I heard the words of Hitax, some soldiers felt bad and wanted to turn and flee. Some soldiers increased their attacks and wanted to rush. The platform seized Hitaks and solved its own crisis; even some soldiers boldly threw a javelin at Hitaks.

Because they were in the middle of the square, the other soldiers responded to the call and quickly surrounded them all. They attacked them from the four sides. The soldiers on the platform also threw a javelin at them, lacking the command of a senior team officer. They have difficulty organizing effective defenses, and the raging offensives have made them chilly. It didn't take long for the voices of surrender to ring in the encirclement, but the killing port soldiers did not stop the attack, they will put weapons in their hands. Constantly stabbing the companions of the past glory and glory, the screams of screaming and screaming for a long time...

"Uncle!..." Even Samoratis, who had previously asked to rebel in Syracuse, felt a little unbearable.

"Since we have decided to turn to Dionia, we need a group of soldiers who are willing to follow us and are very united, so it is necessary to kill them!" Hiktas was indecisive and hesitant before he could When he made the decision, he changed his mind like a person. When he said this coldly, he stood by and silently.

Zamoratis listened, thoughtfully.

At this time, the guards on the side suddenly shouted: "Siktas, look at it! The council will send people!"

Hitaks turned around and saw that there were two people wearing white Bolton on the edge of the south side of the square, followed by a small group of soldiers.

"Samoratis, take a team and bring them to me!" Hiktas said immediately.

Zamoratis took the lead.

The people sent by the council, although their eyes were blocked by the crowds in front of them, they could not see what happened in the square, but the screams were clearly introduced into their ears, so they felt bad and did not stop. Just turned and fled.

Hiktas saw the arrest on the platform and his face was more gloomy. He turned and said to the guards: "Quickly let the soldiers speed up the attack!"

After more than 10 minutes, the screams and screams in the square gradually subsided. The platform was covered with corpses and the blood flowed into the river.

The soldiers held their spears and looked at the bodies of their former comrades. The war in their eyes gradually turned into a sigh.

At this time, Hicktas on the platform said loudly: "Brothers, we have no way out! Follow me, we join the Kingdom of Dionia! Ten years ago, Tessitis and your fathers fought We have earned our dignity, and today we also have to win a new future for us through battle!"

The voice just fell, and some people responded loudly to the audience: "Hicktas, we are willing to follow you and fight those city people!"

"Beat the people in the city and recapture everything we lost!"

"Joining Diony, we have to live like the Catanas!"

......

The atmosphere on the square boiled again, and the soldiers’ feelings became hot again.

Hicktas shouted: "Follow me, let's go back to Dagang!"

The soldiers responded loudly.

But Zamoratis has some doubts: "Go back to Dagang? Why not directly kill the city?!"

"You don't understand." Hiktas said in a righteous way: "Although it seems that there is no extra force in the city, the previous council did not recruit citizens over the age of 50, and most of these citizens have participated in the South Italian War and subsequently A few civil strife, although the body is not as good as before, but they are experienced, and most of them are heavy infantry. The council has discovered the changes here, I am afraid they have begun to recruit these citizens, and in the main city, they can call at least 3000 Many people, and you look at us..."

Zamoratis subconsciously looked at the square~EbookFREE.me~ At this time, the square was much more empty than before, and the number of soldiers was reduced by nearly half, including the killing of more than 500 soldiers. There are some people who do not agree with Hiktas and do not want to betray Syracuse and sneak away, and most of the soldiers left are light infantry.

Seeing Zamoratis silently, Hiktas continued: "And when we return to the port, there are many sailors who are willing to follow us. We can use the inner wall to block the attack of the council. We can also pass the ship and the outside of the city. What do you think of the Syracuse army getting in touch?"

The last sentence of Hicktas was not addressed to his nephew, but to Artemis, although he still had some resentment against this Dionysian use of this means to force him. He now has to show respect for him, to improve his previous hesitation may lead to a bad impression of the Diaonians.

The plan has been successful! . . . Artemis rejoices in his heart and his attitude becomes modest: "You are the commander of this army, and you know the situation in the city. Everything is up to you. If you need me to go to the city." Outside the military, I am willing to execute your order."

"Good! Good!..." Hiktas gratefully gratefully, then shouted to the soldiers around him: "Follow me, let's go to Dagang!"
