Douluo: The Adventures of King Skin

"You can always come up with something new for me!"

——Wen Hou·Fengxian I·Lv Bu "filial piety"

"So, can we really get the money back?" the young prisoner of war asked with anxiety on his face.

"Harm!" The veteran looked impatient, "Didn't I tell you... As long as our king wins, that little money is nothing at all!"

"That……"

"Then can our king win?" The veteran smiled: "Have you forgotten how you lost two days ago?

"To tell you the truth, we usually don't ask for any money at all! We don't even give out camp money!"

"What will you eat if you don't get paid?" The prisoners became more and more surprised.

In this era, there was no logistics in fighting wars. Food depended on the soldiers' own salary or the knife in their hand.Sometimes, when sufficient military pay cannot be paid, the generals and captains have to give each camp some "camp money", which is considered a food allowance.

"The food will be the same as yours, and the logistics team will take care of the food!" The veteran glanced at the prisoners of war:

"Did you eat well? Are you saying that the food you have eaten in the past two days is not better than what you had before?"

The food standard of Pyrrhus's army is indeed quite high. He himself eats the same canteen food as the soldiers, so he can't do anything to wrong himself.

"It's good to eat well, but you have to order something, right?"

"What our king wants to give us is land!" the veteran responded categorically, "It's not a land far away in Persia and India, it's in Thessaly. When the time comes, we will all join the city-state and become citizens!"

The Macedonian system is different from that of most Greek city-states. The people in the city are nobles, who serve as cavalry according to the corresponding obligations during war; the infantry are recruited from farmers in the countryside, and these farmers are basically between yeomen and serfs. .

The old prisoner of war sitting on the ground couldn't help but turn his eyes when he heard this and asked: "What if he is beaten to death?"

"If you let me beat him to death, I will give you a son, a daughter, etc.," the veteran thought. "Of course, if you say that King Pyrrhus is dead, then there will definitely be nothing left."

"——But that's impossible, because our king cannot lose!"

The old prisoner of war regained his energy now and got up in a hurry, "Your Majesty said you want to let us go, so...then do you think I can stay?"

The old soldier felt happy in his heart, but he deliberately said: "Why do you stay here? Do you still want to take advantage of us?"

"No..." the old prisoner of war was a little anxious, "I'll stay and fight for you!"

"You are so old and can still fight?" The veteran glanced up and down with disgust, then turned to look at the young prisoner of war:

"I think you are a pretty good young man!"

The young prisoner of war suddenly became happy.

The old prisoner of war next to him looked at the veteran's snow-white beard and finally became angry...

The same scene was taking place in different corners of various prisoner-of-war camps.

If Pyrrhus only had a false reputation before, after this battle at Philais, he had already confirmed his false reputation.

It can be said that half of what Zenas said before about supporting Pyrrhus Dantagus has been accomplished.

In this era... no, even thousands of years later until modern times, the people of many monarchy countries are quite accepting of a foreigner becoming emperor, pope, or prophet...

Even if the requirements are higher, you have to share the same religion, right?

Alas, everyone believes in Greek polytheism, and the Greeks are really not very particular about this belief - the Rhodians even went to Egypt to seek the oracle of Amon.

Some say you must have a noble bloodline, right?

The blood of Pyrrhus is absolutely noble!His father is the king, many people know it; his ancestor is Achilles, and this cannot be false - although it is not as good as the descendants of Hercules who can be found everywhere, the descendants of Achilles are also the same in Epirus. Grab a handful!Achilles' armor is still being paid tribute by Duoduo, and there is physical evidence!

Besides, you have to be legal and legal, right?

This is possible. The legal system of Tagus in Thessaly was originally based on elections and fists. You Pyrrhus can win the support of the Thessalians and defeat Cassander. It is not reasonable enough to be the emperor in this republic!

To put it bluntly, the early establishment of Pyrrhus was too good, and Cassander's reputation was too bad!

Pyrrhus's great victory had established his reputation as the 'Savior of Thessaly'.

The great nobles also wanted to use this to get rid of Cassander's control, and the Macedonian nobles were encroaching on their own interests.

Not to mention the people. Among the well-informed top nobles there are also passionate people like Scopas, and there are even more among the ordinary people.

And after this battle, Cassander's garrisons in the two core areas of Pyrrhatis and Thessalyotis have been almost eliminated, and the remaining peripheral characters in Sali Human power can do it.

Therefore, in the past two days, we have been receiving "anyway" news from various towns and cities. Representatives from all walks of life have come to Pyrrhus to pay their respects. At the same time, heroes from all walks of life have come to Pyrrhus one after another, bringing their own dry food.

Among them are not only the Thessalians, but also the "frontier residents" Xenophon, as well as adventurers from various Greek city-states, and even Epirus and Macedonians.

——The entire Panhellenic region is a barren place, and all Greeks have been a nation rich in 'adventurous' spirit since ancient times.

As a result, the "Thessaly Independent Army" led by Pyrrhus also expanded day by day.

Now that Larissa, Philae, and Pharsalus, the three largest core cities in Thessaly, have been recovered, the next plan is to go south to the city of Lamia in the Viceroyalty of Phishutis, and to Demi Terry attacked from the north and south and destroyed Philip's six thousand troops.

On one side, he had sent people to contact Pharsalus' mother and Hippias, and on the other side, he was waiting to deal with the noble giants like Thessaly.

**

After close and in-depth exchanges between Pyrrhus and the local gangsters in Thessaly, the two sides fully exchanged opinions and basically reached a consensus on the future and development route of Thessaly's independent cause.

Pyrrhus pointed out that the Thessaly Independent Army is the son of the Thessaly people. It is a glorious team and a righteous team. It must not follow the old path of relying on war to support war, and should find a new path of sustainable development.

Pyrrhus also said that Thessaly should vigorously develop the state-owned economy and green industries in the future. The papermaking industry is a promising sunrise industry, and workshops should be opened all over Thessaly.Use industry to protect independence, and use the expected income from industry to ensure the vigorous growth of the Thessaly Independent Army.

The representatives at the meeting expressed strong agreement and praised Pyrrhus as a good Tagus who was dedicated to the people and the future of Thessaly.

Pyrrhus said: "I am not modest either..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the noise outside the camp gate.

Achilles came up to report that the Macedonian prisoners of war had sent representatives to petition King Pyrrhus, and that they had to join the Thessalian Independence Army, life or death!No military pay!

Now the representatives were shocked!

Let alone the Macedonians switching sides, this in itself is not unusual;

The Macedonians did not need military pay but brought their own dry food and wanted to follow Pyrrhus. This is a bit beyond imagination!

What’s so difficult about charisma!

Pyrrhus also lamented, "This is our just cause" and "Peace-loving people all over the world unite." Even an old man like Creon almost believed it.

Pyrrhus then went out to cordially receive the representatives of the 'religious people', and spoke highly of their just actions to draw a line with the villain Cassander, and praised their noble spirit of being selfless, adhering to the bottom line, and bringing order out of chaos, and praised their actions. It has opened a new page in the history of relations between the Macedonian people and the Thessalian people...

…………

…………

Pyrrhus was contented.

There was such a commotion a few days ago that the entrepreneurial team almost broke up.It was a big blow to the fledgling Pyrrhus.

There was such a commotion today, which allowed him to show his face in front of people from all walks of life in Thessaly, and his direct relatives who came and went all the way were visible to all.Not only did he regain his confidence, but his team also regained their confidence!

**

At the same time, the Macedonian prisoners of war were on their way back to the prisoner of war camp with satisfaction. The veteran guard was lowering his head and whispering to the old prisoners of war who had just been formally established:

"Do you remember everything I told you? If you recruit three people, the land will double; the people you develop..."
