Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

After the failure of the last battle, many of my clansmen must have fled into the city of Cosenza, and maybe they are standing on the top of the city now... Sedorum considered his tone and said cautiously: It is reasonable to say that ... I should go down to the city now, let them go out of the city and surrender, and even persuade Pian Lun and the others to give up their resistance, but... A wolf king without a pack of wolves will not only not make people feel scared, but will become the target of hunters, Ke. The Senza people will say that I... personally surrendered Dionia because of fear of death, and my people will probably be determined to resist in order to wash away the shame, so- Sedorum, paused, Looking at Davos earnestly: I hope to go back to Vig City first, convince the leaders and people in Vig City, and then lead them to participate in the siege of Cosenza, I believe that Dionia will take Cosenza. Zha's help is even greater! After speaking, he waited anxiously for Davos' answer.

Davos stared at him for a moment and smiled: How long does it take to get from here to Vig?

It takes more than half a day to walk and less than three hours to ride a horse.

Then you can start riding right now. I hope to meet the leaders of Vig City at the camp tomorrow! Davos said decisively and firmly.

Sedorum was shocked and hurriedly bowed: As you wish, my lord.

Martius.

exist!

Bring some escorts to safely send the chief of Sedorum outside the city of Vig. I believe that after seeing you, Avenogis will not prevent the chief of Sedorum from entering the city. At the same time, tell the ruling of Laos. Officer, let him bring his army here tomorrow with the Vig army.

Understood. Martius hesitated: Sir, but here you-

Don't worry, there are other guards, and the Vicinian warriors led by Rodom, I will not have any problems.

Yes.

Waiting for Sedorum to leave, Thormid asked hurriedly: Lord Commander, aren't you worried that he is lying?

Davos looked at the back of Sedorum leaving, with a slightly complicated expression: Sedorum is a smart man, there was one thing he deliberately didn't mention just now.

After Davos woke up, Tormide suddenly realized: Those Vig prisoners in the camp!

This is the hostage he left behind. If a big leader abandons his own people and escapes alone, if the Vig people know about it... Sedorum can be said to be well-intentioned. Davos smiled lightly, in his eyes Flashing light: Actually, I don't care whether he is lying or not, because he alone can't change the outcome of this war, but will give me a reason to completely eliminate the Vig people!

This night, the city and the city were peaceful.

The next day, Pianlon, who had not slept all night, hurried to the top of the city, waiting for the attack of the Dionians.

The attack did not come, and the Dionians were still building their camp.

But what Pianren didn't know was that Davos had sent the First Army to attack Ambalia, along with a dozen officers of the Fourth Army, the ballista troops, and Hegsitus.

At noon, the soldiers defending the city of Cosenza were horrified to see an army of about 1,000 people coming from the north, holding the flag of Wig City high, around the north, west, and east of Cosenza. , and finally into the Dionysian barracks. This was followed by the Laos army of 2,000 men.

This gave the Bruti warriors a great shock: Vig City surrendered!

Especially the Vig warriors in the city, when they saw Vig's great leader, Sedorum and the leader walking at the forefront of the team, they clamored to go out of the city to join them, and also followed Cosenza, who came to stop them. Fighters clashed and the two sides faced off in the city.

Pianlon is in a dilemma: there are about 800 Vig warriors, and the total number of Cosenza warriors in the city is at most 5,000. Outside the city, there is an army of Dionysian eyeing them. Other leaders led by Tagli also refused to participate in the encirclement and suppression of the Vig people on the grounds that the Brutians cannot kill each other.

At this time, a new situation appeared outside the city. The tribes who had rioted in Cosenza gathered at the bottom of the city and shouted to Tagli and the others to persuade them to surrender.

Just when the leaders such as Tagli were hesitating, the leader of Ambalia, Bergam, led a dozen cavalry to the city in a hurry.

Even Ambalia surrendered, a fact that dealt a heavy blow to the Brutite warriors in the city. In fact, the surrender of Ambalia, with few people in the city, is reasonable. When 7,000 people of the First Army appeared aggressively outside the city of Ambania, a few stone bullets fired by ballistas broke the wooden fence, Hegesitus persuaded the city to surrender... The repeated actions made the great leader Bogam, who had less than a thousand soldiers, quickly make the right choice.

The surrender of Ambalia made all the Brutians in Cosenza even more panic: in this way, Cosenza became an isolated island and was completely surrounded!

Targary and other leaders finally made up their minds and Kaesong surrendered.

The Dionian soldiers cheered and poured into Cosenza, and Pianlon, Petalu, and Kadulke had to retreat to the inner city with their tribal warriors, and the city was in chaos.

……………………

Petaru stumbled into the council hall.

Big Chief! He shouted anxiously: Big Chief, damn Kadulk!... Kadurk opened the city gate and surrendered to the Dionysians! We... do we want to...

Pian Lun, who was sitting on the wooden chair, did not panic at all. He looked at his son-in-law calmly, and spit out a sentence with difficulty: Surrender to the Dionysians...

Petaru finally waited for the answer he wanted, and even said yes without hesitation, and hurried out.

Petaru. Pian Lun stopped him and said earnestly: As a leader of Bruti, you are still in a hurry, think more before doing things in the future, and... Pian Lun's voice became a little deep, and he took a breath: Take care of Ouna!

Hearing this, Petaru felt a little uneasy in his heart: Father...

Pian Lun waved his hand: Come on, our people have died too many...

Looking at Petaru's figure disappearing outside the hall with some reluctance, Pian Lun turned around wearily, and on the wall behind him hung the flag of the Bruti Tribal Alliance - on the green grassland stood a The snow-capped peaks represent the land that nurtured thousands of Brutians and the god Amara who blessed them.

Pian Lun stepped forward and passionately slapped the flag on which he had devoted countless efforts. His thoughts were full of thoughts, and he saw that a unified Bruti tribal alliance would rise on this land, but...

Dionia... Dionia... He repeated the name resentfully, full of regrets in his heart. Of course he wouldn't know: in the history of the previous life, in the past few decades, Bruti became a powerful kingdom, not only the Greek city-state of Greater Greece trembled under its front, but also the Lucanians were afraid Three points, the great Greek city-states such as Crotone and Turii, which were weakened by the repeated invasions of Syracuse, had to invite Alexander, the king of Epirus, to lead tens of thousands of troops to cross the sea to southern Italy in an attempt to make one move. The destruction of Bruti turned out to be near the Platte River, where Dionia and the Bruti coalition fought, and the Brutians almost wiped out the Greek coalition led by Alexander. From then on, the Greek city-states in southern Italy could only survive by hiding behind tall city walls, and never left any records in history until the arrival of the Romans...

At this time, Pian Lun took off the flag of the Bruti Alliance, slowly wrapped it around him, and then pulled out the dagger from his waist...

Just the day before Pianlon committed suicide and Davos occupied the entire territory of Bruti, the Third Army led by Hieronymus arrived at the city of Picocis, and the Picosses, who had no troops to defend, opened their doors. City surrendered.

The great leader of Potentia, Puamot, who got this news, finally made up his mind and sent an envoy to Turii, asking to join the Dionysian League.

A month later, Metapontum and Garraguso joined the Dionysian League.

At this time, the Dionian city-state alliance occupied more than half of the land in southern Italy and Lucania, and truly became the hegemon of southern Italy.

Note: According to historical inferences (rather than certainty), the Brutians had been vassals of the Lucanians for decades, and finally they united, established a unified kingdom, and became independent. At this time, the Greek city-state of southern Italy was greatly weakened by the repeated invasions of Dionysius of Syracuse, which provided convenience for the growth of the Brutian power in southern Italy. Looking at the maps of this period, you can see that the territory of the Brutians occupied almost the entire Calabria region, except for these Greek city-states along the coast.

In this book, the existence of Dionia interrupted the rise of the Brutians. Of course, it also interrupted the rise of the Lucanians before. I believe that in later chapters, it will continue to do so. Performance.

The next volume involves more Mediterranean forces, and the situation is more complicated. There will be more historical figures, more grand war scenes, and more turbulent conspiracies and diplomacy... In order to better sort out my thoughts , I need to take a day off for a while, and I will enter the sixth volume with you the day after tomorrow: The Two Heroes Club, so stay tuned!
