Chapter 94 Night Attack
"What's going on?" Neonsis asked suspiciously.

There was a loud bang, the door was pushed open, and the guards rushed in, looking ecstatic: "Report to the generals, the scouts are back, they said... they said... they said the mercenaries won the battle! Luca The Nian coalition forces have been wiped out!!"

"Is this true?!" the generals almost couldn't believe their ears and asked in unison.

"The scouts are right outside the door. They also went to the Great River Beach, where the mercenaries fought with the Lucanians, to check it out. They said it was full of Lucanian corpses!!"

"Unbelievable! It's unbelievable! They actually won!!" Neonsis murmured as if in a dream.

"How did they do it?!" Kunogolata went to the battlefield yesterday, and the ferocity of the Lucanian warriors still scares him. What's more, he is well aware of the disparity in strength between the two sides, so the news of victory is very important to him. It's almost a miracle.

"What kind of person is Davos?" At this moment, Ansitanos was actually interested in getting to know this magical mercenary leader.

Polyxis immediately remembered the smiling young man he had seen on Bulcos's ship. Unexpectedly, this seemingly harmless young man actually destroyed Lucalia, which Turui regarded as a scourge. The coalition forces saved the endangered city of Thurii.

"He is a young man, but it is rumored among the mercenaries that he is the favored one of Hades! He is also called the miracle worker! On his way back from Persia..." He had been criticized by the generals and had been staying in the city hall. Burkos spoke loudly and proudly about the heroic deeds he had heard about Davos, and there was only one voice stirring and boiling in his heart: He did it!He really did it! !
The generals did not laugh at these seemingly ridiculous rumors, nor did they face Burkos's extremely excited eyes, and strode out of the hall one after another.

In the square of the city hall, countless women, children, and the elderly, dressed in black veils and in mourning, with sad faces, were now cheering loudly for victory. Some even cried, but they were tears of joy.The gloom that shrouded the hearts of the people of Turiyi was all dissipated at this moment.

The scouts also brought a message from Davos: I hope Tulii will send people to clean the battlefield and bury the corpses to prevent the plague.

Out of caution, the generals decided to send people to the battlefield to check first.This time Neonsis personally led the team, and when he arrived at the big river beach, he gasped at the sight in front of him: the big river beach area, including the hot spring swamp, had turned into a red river of blood, and the bloody water was full of naked bodies. The corpses (the mercenaries took away all the armor and weapons of the deceased) were completely hell on earth...

"This is really a terrible miracle!" Neansis was trembling all over: "The terrible one favored by Hades!..."

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

In order to thank Davos, Archita, and the leaders and generals Dracos, Adrianx, and Sesta for their contributions to Thurii, the generals and the council decided to send Burkos accompanied Ansitanos to the mercenary camp and invited them to the city of Thurii to participate in the victory celebration and accept the thanks of the people of Thurii.At the same time, he also brought a hundred cans of wine and fifty cans of olive oil to reward the soldiers.

The group of people arrived at the camp excitedly, but were stopped by the guards, who claimed that the leaders and soldiers were extremely exhausted after a day of fierce fighting. Most of them had fallen asleep to restore their energy, so the guards were informed not to let anyone go. Enter to prevent accidents.

Burkes tried to persuade him again and again, but the guard insisted.Burkos had been to the Davos camp several times before, and he knew to some extent that the military regulations here were very strict. In addition, the camp was indeed extremely quiet, so Tuliyi and his party had no choice but to leave.

Then they found Archita.

Archita received them happily, but when they explained their intention, Archita looked embarrassed and said: "To be honest with you, this victory is entirely due to Davos' genius plan. Tarantum The reinforcements are just helping from the side. If Davos doesn’t go, of course he can’t go either, lest he be ridiculed!”

Ansitanos had no choice but to decide to invite again tomorrow.

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

The mercenary soldiers were indeed ordered to rest, but the mercenary officers, as well as Adrianx and Sesta were now concentrated in Davos's tent.

After receiving the reward from the guard, Davos smiled and said: "Turiyi was wary of us as if he were guarding against thieves, and now he wants to please us. Isn't it a little late?"

"Yes, I hate the appearance of the Turii people. We did not annihilate the Lucanians for them." Amintas said with disdain.

"It's a pity to miss the celebration of Turiyi. Maybe there are many beautiful Turiyi girls waiting for the leader to go!" Olivers' words caused everyone to burst into laughter.

Davos looked at him funny: "How about I give this opportunity to you?"

"I can't." Olivers shook his head vigorously: "Turiyi invited Davos, the powerful Lucania, not a little person like me. I'd better continue to sleep in the camp!" Olivers pretended The funny appearance caused everyone to laugh again.

"Chief, we still have to have a good relationship with Tulii. After all, it will become our neighbor from now on." Felicius reminded.

Davos nodded, his eyes fell on Adrianx and Cesta, and asked with concern: "How is Drax's situation?"

"Under Helps' treatment, he is much better, and he told us to obey your command!" Sesta said gratefully, and Adriankos also nodded.

Of course, Davos heard that Cesta expressed his obedience to Davos through Dracos. He immediately said: "That's great, we don't want to lose a warrior like Dracos! If it weren't for him Stand at the front of the defense line, resist the enemy's attack, and boost the morale of the soldiers. The northern defense line will probably be breached!..." After praising Dracos, he looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice: "I will reiterate what I want to say tonight. battle plan!"

Everyone immediately stopped talking and laughing and looked at Davos intently.

Davos picked up the wooden stick and pointed at the wooden table. There was a city model made of clay on the wooden table: "At two o'clock tonight, the whole army will break camp and go to Amendolara. After crossing the Sisno River, Hilos!”

"exist!"

"Don't let us build that stone wall in vain. I hope your ten days of training will be effective."

"Chief, don't worry!" Hilos said confidently: "The soldiers will use rope hooks to climb up the city wall and open the city gate in the shortest possible time!"

Davos nodded, and then said: "In case the enemy is discovered and the sneak attack is blocked. Capos, Antonio, your two companies carry long ladders, and Alexis's company carries crash logs and arrive as quickly as possible. Below the city, launch a strong attack!"

"Yes!" The three answered simply.

"After the city gate opens, Amyntas, your company will serve as the vanguard and break through the enemy's defense line as quickly as possible and enter the city!"

"It's finally my turn!" Amyntas grinned.

"After entering the city, according to my previous arrangement, all the troops, led by the guide Amendolara, will quickly attack the top of the mountain along these two mountain roads." Davos lit a place on the city model with a wooden stick: "According to the people of Amendolara, there are not many large and flat places in this mountain city. There are only the Senate, the square, and the temple on the top of the mountain, so these three places are most likely Lucania. The place where people imprisoned the people of Amendolara and their own military camp. You must occupy these places as quickly as possible, is it clear?!"

"It's clear!!!" Everyone shouted in unison.

At this time, Alexis asked: "When can we light the torch?"

"Good question!" Davos then realized that he had missed an important thing. After thinking for a while, he said: "When the city gate is opened, or the sneak attack fails, it can be ignited when a storm is launched! Everyone -" Davos He said with emphasis: "Tomorrow, Tulii may ask us to help retake Amendolara, or the Lucanians will escape from Amendolara, so we only have this night! Only we can escape from Lucca on our own." Only when Amendolara is recaptured from the Nian people can he become our trophy, and we can avoid a lot of trouble and truly become the masters of Amendolara! So tonight we can only succeed and not fail!!!"

"Hoo!!!"

　I saw that some readers have guessed, yes, the third great day today is-my birthday...hahaha
　　Davos is finally starting to fight for his own foothold, brothers cheer for him!
