Chapter 308 Bruti is shocked

Bogam quickly read the letter, and then carefully said to Nikuru, who had not yet regained his composure: "The letter said that some Bisinian survivors fled to Cosenza... Nikuru, you can go to Cosenza first. Senza, confirm if this is true.”

After speaking, he handed over the letter.

Nikuru stared blankly at the papyrus handed over by Bogam, as if it was not paper but burning fire. He hurriedly avoided it and sat back down, his eyes blank: "What should I do? What should I do?" what to do?……"

Listening to Nikulu's helpless murmur, Pangelu and Bogam looked at each other, with shock and confusion mixed in their eyes: they were celebrating their victory just now, and they were going out of the city with confidence, wanting to meet Dioni. Subhuman decisive battle!In a blink of an eye, this confidence and arrogance were shattered by this amazing news. What should we do?
They are also thinking painfully...

"I must go back! I must go back immediately! Take back my Bitinia, and save my people!" Nikuru suddenly stood up and strode out.

Upon hearing this, Pangelu hurriedly stepped forward to persuade: "Don't be anxious now. It's still unclear what happened in Bixinia. Let's send people to reconnoiter first and wait for news from Pianlun and others. Wait until everyone After discussing it, it’s not too late to take action.”

"It's not that Knapetia has been occupied, so of course you are not in a hurry! If we wait any longer, all my people in Bithynia will die!" Nikuru dropped this sentence unceremoniously without looking back. He left Pangelu's mansion.

"What Chief Nikuru just said is right, now is not the time to wait." Bogam came over and said to the somewhat absent-minded Pangelu: "Bisinia has fallen, our defense against Deolia The plan has failed. What we are most worried about now is that Dionia's large army comes out of the city of Bisignia, and we are all in danger! I must immediately lead the soldiers of Ambalia to rush to Cosenza , meet Pi Anlun there, and then discuss what to do next."

"You are all gone, what will happen to the enemies here?!" Pangelu said in panic.

"Don't you see, we were all deceived by the Dionians!" Bergam said angrily: "The enemies here are just bait for the Dionians to attract us. Their real focus of attack is on That direction of Xenia!”

Bogam said goodbye and left. Pangelu stayed for a while and cursed several times: "Damn coward!..." I don't know whether he was scolding the Dionians or the two big leaders.

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

In Vig City, Cosenza Chief Pianlon, Chief Petalu, and Vig City Chief Sedorum are discussing the withdrawal of troops.

It turns out that, except for the first few fierce attacks and the capture of a camp, the Dionians' attacks gradually weakened due to the tenacious resistance of the Brutians, and they have almost stopped attacking in recent days. .Therefore, Sedorum thought about it, and he suggested to Pianlon: "Big leader, judging from the current action status of the Dionians, their fighting spirit is weakening, and we are completely able to resist their next attacks." Therefore, I suggest that only a small number of Cosenza troops be left to assist in the defense of Vig City. The main force can return to Cosenza first and become a reserve force for the entire war to deal with the attacks of the Dionians from other directions. At the same time, It can also greatly reduce the pressure on food supply..."

Indeed, tens of thousands of Cosenza warriors were stationed in Vig City, doing nothing most of the time.You know, it has only been two years since the Bruti tribes united. The conflicts and hatreds that have existed for decades will not be eliminated so quickly. Moreover, it is the first time that the two cities have been in close contact for so long, and conflicts and conflicts have occurred. Conflict is inevitable, so Pianlon believes that Cedorum's proposal is acceptable, which will also help reduce friction.

After deliberation, he finally decided: he would lead 8000 soldiers back to Cosenza, and Petalu would lead 2000 people to continue to assist the Veg people in defending the city.

Petalu is one of the members of the "Seven Elders", the highest authority body of the Bruti Tribal Alliance, and is the youngest one.Pian Lun has no sons, and there are no outstanding people in the tribe. As a tribal leader with high ambitions, Pian Lun has been working hard to unify the various tribes of Bruti. Therefore, he is not narrow-minded. He will His daughter married Petalu, the leader of the second largest tribe in Cosenza City, and he tried his best to help and promote Petalu. Regardless of the opposition of the tribe and other big leaders, he insisted on making him one of the elders of the newly established tribal alliance. First, not only because Petalu is his son-in-law in order to increase Cosenza's weight in the alliance's elders, but also because he hopes that after his death, Petalu can use his status as son-in-law to truly make Cosenza the first emperor. If the first and second major tribes merge together and become the most powerful tribe in the Bruti region, then Petalu's leadership position in the alliance will be unshakable, and it will also enable the tribal alliance to develop continuously and stably.

Petalu readily accepted this decision, and he was also willing to stay in Vig City for a while to deepen his understanding of Vig City and enhance his friendship with the leaders of Vig City.Although Nikuru and the others despised Sedorum and secretly called him a "traitor and coward", the strength of Vigo City was not weak and it was worthy of Cosenza's win over.

The battle continues until now, and several leaders feel that Bruti's situation is good, and the previous worries about Dionia's strong force have also been reduced a lot, so several people had a good chat until the messenger broke into the meeting hall in panic.

The shocking news of the "Fall of Bithynia" shocked everyone present.

Pianlon, who had always been calm, actually showed strong doubts about the news like Nikuru. Until he confirmed the letter from High Priest Philotalu, he seemed unwilling to believe this fact.

Even if he was like this, not to mention the others, the entire hall fell into silence...

After a long time, Sedorum said bitterly: "We were deceived! The Dionians attacked Vege and Knapetia just to distract our troops and divert our attention. Their real goal should be Bithynia!”

As the leader of the newly established Bruti Tribal Alliance, Pian Lun had adjusted his emotions after the silence just now. He suppressed the pain caused by this sudden blow and said loudly: "We still have hope! The main force of Dionysia is determined here, and there are nearly [-] Dionysia in Knapetia, so there should not be many enemies in Bithynia. We should mobilize the army immediately and take advantage of the enemy We haven’t gathered a large number of troops in Bithynia to quickly recapture Bithynia!”

Sedorum also said immediately: "Even if Bisignia cannot be taken back, at least the road from Bisignia to the Cosenza Plateau must be blocked!"

Pianlun glanced at Sedorum. He felt that the chief of Vege City was a little pessimistic, but at this time he obviously did not have time to care too much. He said to Petalu: "I'll ride on the horse first." , rush back to Cosenza to urge other tribes that have just joined the alliance to provide as many warriors as possible, and at the same time notify Nikuru and Bogam to lead their troops back to Cosenza to rendezvous. And you lead [-] Cosenza Soldiers, hurry back!"

"I got it, chief!" Petalu felt much more at ease after hearing Pianlun's arrangements.

"Elder Cedorum is sorry, you can only rely on yourself here!" Although the other big leaders are not used to it, Pianlon always insists on calling them by their new positions in the alliance.

"Don't worry, big leader." Sedorum replied confidently: "Since Vig City is not the focus of the Dionians' attack, I am confident to defend this place! But... Big Leader Nikuru heard I don’t know what will happen with this news.”

Sedorum's words reminded Pian Lun, and his expression changed: "You are right, I must leave immediately."

Pianlun and Petalu left one after another, and Sedorum was in a daze.

Saru, who had been silent all the time, stepped forward and said: "Big leader, look...can we take back Bisignia?"

Sedorum sighed: "Who knows... The governor of Dionysia made us fool around. After capturing the city of Bithynia, wasn't he prepared?"

Saru opened his mouth and stammered: "You mean...you mean...we will lose?!"

Sedorum sighed again: "I'm afraid only Amara and God Brutus know this..."

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

A war broke out between Dionia and the Bruti people, and more than half of the citizens of Thurii City went to war. The city became a little depressed, and only the Temple of Hades was overcrowded.After the shock of the celebration ceremony and the unswerving propaganda directed by the priest Plesinas during this period, the people of Thurii and Amendolara have placed great trust in this man who is famous among the Olympian gods for his strictness, cruelty, and A god known for his spookiness and horror.

There were people crawling and praying all over the hillside, hoping that the Dionysian army could defeat the Bruti people as soon as possible so that their loved ones could return safely.

Plessinas led the priests, priests, and saints of the Temple of Hades...every day they comforted the people who came to pray, and tried their best to help them, providing drinking water, shelter, and even doctors...

For the safety of Thurii, the Senate decided to temporarily strictly check pedestrians entering the city gate, and only citizens could enter and exit.

Compared with the deserted city of Turii, the port and market are still busy: carts of grain, salted fish, meat, and weapons are being pulled out of the port and market and heading outside the city of Turii. , and then Melses will do the unified deployment.At the beginning of the war, part of this baggage was sent to the military camp in the west of the city (where the Second Army was originally hidden).Most of it passes through the mountains and is sent to Laos.A small portion was shipped via the port to Siliting and then to Trina.
