Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Daphes coughed and said seriously: "Peropidas, someone told me that Thebes can regain independence, and can fight against the Spartans for many years, and you have a slight advantage. It played an important role! "

Pelopidas was refreshed, he felt a hint of goodwill revealed by Davis in this remark, and immediately humbly replied: "Thebes can have today, is common to all citizens who love Thebes As a result of the struggle, I just exerted all my strengths as they did. And what I did was not worth mentioning compared to the powerful kingdom you created. "

"You're too humble." Daveus smiled slightly, and besides Plato, he was the first time he heard such a high opinion of the powerful people in Greece. He felt slightly complacent in his heart, so he patted the armrest and asked: " Why did you come to Turri this time? "

"His Majesty the King." Pelopidas solemnly said: "10 days ago, Thebes was invited to Sparta to discuss the truce. The war continued for so many years, the land of Thebes was met by Sparta Talents wantonly destroy, people's lives are very difficult, we are willing to stop the war and restore peace.

But in the negotiations, Athens betrayed us. They joined forces with the Spartans, and with the strong support of the Persians, they jointly pressed us to force us to dissolve the Pioxia alliance, and their own alliance passed this way. Has a contract reserved ... "

Pelopidas briefly outlined the outline of the contract, then said sadly: "Our messenger withstood the pressure and did not sign the contract, because once they agreed to their requirements, the Pioxia Union was dissolved, In case Sparta breaks the contract again and launches an attack on Thebes, we will not be able to confront it.

Due to our refusal, the Persians threatened us, saying that they would fully support Sparta and severely punish Thebes ... so today I came to Turri and sought Deonia on behalf of Thebes. stand by! "

After Pelopidas finished speaking, seeing Daphes sitting on the throne firmly, touching his chin, and muttering without speaking, he continued: "Before this peace talk, because I heard that Sparta and Athens have sent people in succession. When I went to Persia to seek support, I also sent Babylon as the messenger of Thebes and was summoned by the King of Persia.

In the presence of our three messengers, the Persian king clearly asked us to stop the war, and said, 'Dionysia has ambitions for Greece. Only the Greek city-states can unite to resist the invasion of Dionysia ... … 'So the King of Persia would send messengers to vigorously facilitate this peace talk in Sparta. "

Daveus moved his heart: He did not think that Peropidas lied in order to seek the support of Dionysia, because what he said was also a testament to why Persia had to let Sparta end with Dionysia earlier. Peace agreement, it seems that the Persians have begun to play against Dionysia!

Thinking of this, Daphes looked at Pelopidas and said slowly, "So do you Thebes think Dionysia is a threat to Greece?"

"I think what the Persian king said is just a joke!" Pelopidas said indignantly: "The Persians are aliens. Since the beginning of the Hippo war, they have delusionally annexed Greek land and enslaved the Greek people. I never stopped interfering in the political situation of the Greek mainland during the year. Nowadays, the wars in Greece are continuing and have a lot to do with Persia; while Dionysia is a kingdom mainly composed of Greeks. Any conflicts and wars. Whoever is good or who is bad will know by comparison.

So I came to ask the honorable king to lend a helping hand, help Thebes, fight the Persian and Spartan coalition forces, and let the Greek city-states regain freedom and peace, no longer under their control! If Dionysia does this, it will not only pre-crush a series of conspiracy against Dionysia by Persians, but will also allow Dionysia to win prestige and the support of most city-states in Greece! "

Daveus nodded while revealing his embarrassment: "What you said has some truth, but ... Donia and Sparta have been friendly exchanges for more than ten years. I spoke to the Spartan messenger not long ago. , 'Will not punish them for ending the friendly agreement in advance——' "

"His Majesty the King!" Pelopidas immediately persuaded: "Dionia keeps its promise and is famous in the Mediterranean, which is admirable! But just over the past 10 years when you have seriously carried out the friendly agreement with Sparta, What do the Spartans do?

As far as I know, they violated the agreement and secretly maintained contact with Syracuse, actively taking over some of the remaining Greek powers who hated Dionysian. During the war between you and Carthage, these forces also formed an army. , Invading Dionysian territory, it is difficult to say that there is no Spartan command ...

The Spartans are insidious and deceitful, as long as it is in their favor, they can do whatever they want. This is true for Thebes and Dionys. Speak faithfulness with them, just like cattle and sheep facing evil wolves, it is always us who suffers!

And it has been almost a month since the Spartans tore down the agreement with Dionia. In this month, you have not taken any hostile actions against Sparta, but you have fulfilled your promise. In addition, because of the armistice negotiations this time, the war between Thebes and Sparta has stopped for some time, and peace has appeared in the eyes of the Greek people.

If after the alliance of Dionyssia and Thebes, Sparta will again attack the Thebes, which will let the Greek people know more clearly who the real perpetrators of the war are and will also make the Dionysians more See how the Spartans are treating Dionysia, who has been friendly for more than 10 years! Of course, if they can take into account Dionysia and really restore peace in Greece, I think it is a good thing for everyone! "

Daphes sighed and said, "It seems that your visit to Persia and the courtesy of the Persian king are true. You really can convince people."

Pelopidas rejoiced in his heart and responded modestly with his mouth: "That's because what I said is true."

Daphes finally said right: "In this case, I agree that the Kingdom of Dionysia and Thebes form a military alliance, and hope that this time our sincere efforts will receive each other's sincere treatment!"

Although Pelopidas had some confidence in the support of Dionysia, he did not expect that King Dionysia was willing to form a military alliance with Thebes. It was hard to suppress the joy in his heart. Smile.

Soon, Dionysian Foreign Minister Ansitanos and Pelopidas began to discuss the alliance.

A day later, Ansitanos came to the palace and reported to Davis.

"Peropidas wants us Dionysia to support Thebes to unify the Pioxia region?" Daphes frowned.

"Yes, Your Majesty. It seems that the Thebes have a strong obsession with this. When they heard that they were negotiating contracts in Sparta, it was because Sparta forced them to dissolve the Thebes Alliance, which led to negotiations. Rupture ... "Ansitano reminded politely.

Daveus tapped on the wooden table with his hand and pondered for a while before saying, "Promise him."

Ansitanos has not yet responded, and Genipolis on the side asked with some doubts: "Your Majesty, from the current situation, Sparta will definitely launch an attack on Thebes again. At this time, the alliance with Thebes has already given the Thebes great support. Now they have to help them reunite Pioxia. Is this a little— "

"Something too high to look at Thebes?" Daveus took his words and said seriously: "Herni, you should take your eyes a little longer, and don't just stare at this little thing in front of you. Interests, even if the Thebes really unified the Pioxia area, that area of ​​land is only comparable to that of Mesapi, Puchti and other areas, and will not pose any threat to us. But the Thebes in order to achieve this The goal, but dare to fight against Sparta, Athens, and Persia, it can be seen how important it is to the Thebes! We can help them, and we will naturally be more grateful for them. This will be our future foothold in Greece. great help!

What's more, making our allies stronger and able to compete with the Greek powers such as Athens and Sparta will help us Dionysia to enter Greece in the future, and it will be more conducive to the stability of the Greek native order ... "

"Your Majesty, you think long-term!" Hernipolis praised loudly and convincingly ~ www.readwn.com ~ Deverus didn't lead him, pointing to Ansitanos, said: "You, just I did n’t think about it well. When your teacher came to report to me, I had considered these pros and cons well, and I knew it in my heart. "

Henripolis immediately looked at Ansitanos.

Ansitanos said calmly: "Your Majesty, Henipolis is not an official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It is impossible to understand the intricate relations of the Greek city-states in detail, nor can he think about how to benefit from it like we do every day. How is it possible to make a very correct judgment ... "

"Herni, see if you don't, or your teacher cares about you." Daveus said jokingly, with a smile on his face, and he suddenly remembered something, and said directly: "But you were right, just now, Dionysia has given Thebes such great support, and should also receive more rewards. Ansitanos, when your Foreign Ministry negotiates with Peropidas, you can also add requirements to the covenant, such as when When Dionysia took military action on the Greek mainland, Thebes must give full support and so on ...
