"That's the spoil of our Dionia, it has nothing to do with Laos and Castellon!" Butler immediately expressed his objection.

"Bagule, don't worry. Do you know what the Dionia Alliance covenant stipulates?" Davos asked patiently.

Bagule shook his head. He has only been a citizen of Dionia for half a year. He has not even fully understood the laws of the alliance, let alone these treaties.

"When a war breaks out in the Dionysian Alliance, all allies need to send troops to participate in the war, and the spoils obtained will be distributed fairly..." Asistes said at the side.

"Yes, fair distribution!" Davos emphasized loudly: "As an ally of Dionia, Laos immediately sent 3000 people after learning that we declared war with Crotone, and was led by Archon A Venogis personally led it; and Castellon not only refused Crotone's solicitation, but also gave us great help during the battle. These two allies fully assisted Dionia in the war, do we Dionia is so stingy that she can't even give them a share of the spoils, so which city-state will be willing to fight with us in the future! I think it doesn't matter even if we give them all the spoils, because we still have more precious ones. thing--"

Davos faced Hieronymus, Bagulu, and Asistes and slowly uttered one word: "Land!"

The three people immediately understood: the spoils of war can be shared, but the land won in the war belongs to Dionia alone. Dionia uses the soldiers of its allies to expand its territory, which is actually a very cost-effective deal.

"Commander, speaking of land. There is a situation that needs to be reported to you." Asistes interjected: "Many Lucarian soldiers of the Third Legion feel that the mountains around Asprostum are very dangerous." It’s suitable for grazing, and the environmental conditions for grazing are even better than in Niutum, so they asked me to get the land here.”

"You mean they asked for "land" for themselves?" Davos reacted very quickly and immediately understood the meaning of Asistes' words.

"Yes." Asistes said in embarrassment: "Because their tribe has been allocated a settlement in Niutum before, so I don't know if they can individually obtain land again?"

Davos did not answer directly, but looked at Bagule and asked, "Do you know about this?"

"I know." Bagula answered truthfully: "Asistes has discussed with me that most of these warriors who asked for 'land' for themselves are from various tribes in Niutum. They saw the Greek soldiers. They can have their own land, but they still have to share it with the tribe, so they asked to 'leave the tribe and live alone'."

Davos looked at him and continued to ask: "Do you think their request is reasonable?"

"I think it's very reasonable!" Bagule answered without thinking, without considering how Davos would feel after hearing this, which made Asistes a little worried: "The 'land' that the soldiers fought desperately for should have been It is more conducive for them to integrate into the Dionia Alliance if they own it and become independent."

A smile appeared on Davos's face: "You can think so. I'm very happy! But what will the leaders of the Lucanian tribe think?"

"I don't think they will object." Bagule has obviously thought about this issue. He said: "In the past, the tribes of Lucania recruited people to survive and strengthen themselves. Now they are already in Dioni." Under the protection of the Asian Alliance, there is no longer a crisis of survival. On the contrary, the departure of these soldiers will make the land in the hands of the tribe richer, which is a good thing."

"I agree to give it to these Lucanian warriors who demand independence." Davos's words made Bagule and Asistes look happy, but Davos was pacing back and forth while thinking: he was happy Seeing that these tribes in Lucaria were dismantled and eventually integrated into the alliance, he was worried that excessive actions would arouse the resentment of the leaders of these small tribes, which would be detrimental to Dionia's future penetration into the Lucania region to the north. So be careful: "But before that, after returning to Thurii, I will first ask your father and Hermon to go to Niutum to test the attitude of the tribal leaders and try to persuade them. Therefore, these soldiers 'Allotment' allocation may be delayed..."

Bagul and Assistas agreed.

"If some soldiers of the Third Legion also settle here, the training and assembly of the entire legion will be very troublesome in the future!" At this time, Hieronymus raised an objection.

Davos smiled and said: "Not only the Third Legion, but also the First and Second Legions will probably have many soldiers who will settle in Asprostum and Crimesa. Who told us to gain another victory so quickly? After acquiring so much land, if we don’t allocate it to the citizens who have served in the legion, reserve citizens, and registered freemen, how can we let the land lie idle for the enemy to attack! After the land distribution is completed, I am afraid that there will be more than three A legion... Regarding the specific personnel arrangements and establishment, I will work with Felicius (military officer), Laphias (household officer), Bulcos (agricultural officer), and you, Capus, and De Lux and the captains gathered together to discuss a suitable plan..."

Hieronymus reluctantly agreed, while Bagule and Asistes were a little excited: the expansion of the team meant that they also had the opportunity to become legion commanders.

At this moment, Davos also realized that in less than a year since he came to Turui, he had gone through four wars. In the case of successive victories, whether it was land, population, or the army, they all swelled like blowing air. Got it so fast!Maybe it’s time to stop and integrate the alliance!
"Hey, isn't that Aristocrates!" Izam suddenly said loudly.

Everyone hurriedly looked down the city, and sure enough they saw: Aristocrates rode up to the moat and was about to wave to the door.

It was almost dark, and Aristocrates still came to find me. There must be something important!Thinking of this, Davos hurried down to the city.

As soon as they arrived at the city gate, Aristocrates had already entered the city. When he saw Davos, although he was tired, he had a smile on his face: "Lord Davos, today I brought a letter from Thurii. Good news! Congratulations, your wife gave birth to a son for you yesterday morning!!"

Davos was ecstatic, and he took a deep breath immediately, but his excitement did not weaken at all: "Child! I have a child!! My child!!!..." Davos suddenly hammered the man next to him. Hieronymus shouted excitedly.

"Congratulations, sir! This is Hera's blessing!!!..." Hieronymus, Bagulu, Asistes and others, including the surrounding soldiers who knew the news, all expressed their congratulations to Davos.

Daves smiled from ear to ear, and hugged them warmly one by one to express his inner joy, and at the same time teased them: We must work harder and not fall too far behind him.

Then he planned to rush back to Crimesa with his escort, quickly arrange everything, and then rush back to Thurii at night, but was blocked by Hieronymus and others, even at the expense of violating Davos's rules. According to his wishes, he was forced to stay in Asprostum overnight.Because it was already dark, going back at this time was a journey down the mountain, with dense rivers, and the war had just ended. If something unexpected happened, they would not be able to explain it to the people of Dionia.

.....................

The next afternoon, after feeding the baby, Kristoya fell into a deep sleep.

Asuna held the child in the courtyard for a while and basked in the sun when she discovered that the child had diarrhea. She had to go back to the outside of the bedroom, wipe it clean with warm water, put on a brand new diaper, and ordered other female slaves to take the dirty clothes and wash them. .

Then, she put the child back into the crib, lay beside the bed, and sang to the child. Gradually, the child closed his eyes, and Azuna also took advantage of her free time to lie down beside the bed and take a nap.Drowsily, she felt someone tapping her shoulder: "Azuna."

She woke up immediately, looked back, and couldn't believe her eyes: "Master, you are back!"

Davos made a silent gesture: "How is Christia's health?" he asked in a low voice.

"Master Helps said that she and the child are both healthy, but the lady still needs to be nursed back to health for a while. She is asleep in the bedroom now." Azuna whispered and stepped aside: "Master, come and see Look at the little master, he is very cute!”

Davos tiptoed forward and looked at his child carefully with both excitement and curiosity. In fact, the child who was just a few days old had red and wrinkled skin, which was not good-looking.But Davos was so fascinated that he couldn't help but stretched out a finger and gently touched the child's red face.

The sleeping child seemed to feel itchy and scratched his face with his little hands.

Davos was very interested and touched him again.

While the child stretched out his hand to scratch his face, he opened his big, bright blue eyes. The father and son looked at each other at close range, and then the child curled up his little mouth and started crying loudly.

Whether it was in his previous life or this life, Davos was a father for the first time. He had no experience at all and was immediately at a loss.

Azuna calmly picked up the child and began to coax her gently.

"Azuna, is the baby hungry again?" Christoya's soft voice came from the bedroom.

"No, the master is back!" Azuna said excitedly.

"Ah!" Christia shouted in surprise.

Davos walked into the bedroom quickly and saw Christia lying on the bed slightly tired, but looking good.

"You're back!" Her eyes sparkled with joy.

"I'm back!" Davos sat on the edge of the bed, leaned down, and kissed his wife.

"Thank you for your hard work!" he said softly.

Christia propped up her body and nestled in Davos's arms, her face filled with happiness: "Have you seen our child?!"
