Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

When was the last time most Greek city-states formed a coalition? The Hippo war a hundred years ago! This is to treat Dionia as an enemy like Persia! This is very uncomfortable for the two people with the Greek bloodstream and the Greek complex, Krotokatax and Prentals.

So when the messenger left, both of them looked very dignified.

Printols first broke the silence and relieved Kloto Kataks: "Your Highness, you don't have to worry too much! The Thebes have already said that it is not short to want to form such an alliance that encompasses most Greek city-states. Time can do it, we still have enough time to conquer Sparta first.

Once Sparta was conquered, Mesenia owned it for us, the Arcadia alliance was our alliance, and Ellis also expressed goodwill to us, so that we stabilized most of Peloponnese, and then In addition, Thebes also supports us. Even if other city-states form a coalition against us, their strength has been greatly weakened. We can completely defeat them with our existing power and dominate the situation in Greece! "

Crotocatax thought for a while and said cautiously: "Our arrival is like poke a horse's honeycomb. I didn't expect Delphi, Olympia, and Corinth to hate us so much, which may make Greece The situation has become complicated, and many things may become uncertain... Indeed, the most important thing for us now is to hurry up and defeat the Spartan army, first clear this strong enemy. And defeating Sparta will help increase our 'S prestige is also a shock to other Greek city-states."

"Your Highness is right!" Prentals nodded in agreement: "I think we can--"

"Report!" The voice of the captain of the court guard suddenly sounded outside the account.

"what's up?"

"Mesenia sent urgent letters!"

Crotocatax unfolded the letter, his eyebrows gradually wrinkled, and he fell into thought.

Although Prentals is curious, it is not easy to take the initiative to ask.

After a while, Crotocatax put down the letter and said, "Veteran Ticias wrote a letter saying that Nafpaktos sent an envoy, hoping to return some of their people to the mother state of Meseny. Sub-life".

"Naf Paktos?" Prentals thought for a while, then said with some doubt: "I remember this city-state seems to be located on the northern shore of the Gulf of Corinth, near its bay exit. During the Peloponnesian War It is not only an ally of Athens, but also a naval base of Athens in the Gulf of Corinth. Athenian naval general Fermio had won a few victorious naval battles there. Athenian army general Timothy used it as a military base. , Almost conquered the areas of Akanania, Ambonakia, Etolia, Locris... but why did this city-state make such a request?"

"Master Prentals deserves to be the Chief of Staff and is very familiar with the military battles that have taken place." Croto Kataks praised and then explained in detail: "Before the Peloponnesian War , Sparta had a large-scale Mesnian-based riot, and Sparta could not extinguish it with the help of the reinforcements of Athens. Eventually, they reached a compromise with these black soldiers and allowed them to leave Slovakia. Bada territory.

Athens helped some Messenians who had escaped to establish Nafpaktos. It is said that they came from the advice of Pericles. The famous chief general of Athens did have a long-term vision, so he fought in the Peloponnesian War. Central Nafpaktos has always been a firm ally of Athens and has played an important role.

After the war, Nafpaktos was forced to dissolve the covenant in Athens, but in recent years Sparta has suffered from war and has greatly weakened his strength. Nafpaktos has once again been close to Athens..."

Printols was born in Turrii, a wise man, but because he was poor, he had no education when he was young. Later, Dionysia was established. He was the first to call on Daveus to participate in the adult class of Turrii School. Learn. After leaving illiteracy, he has not stopped studying to this day, but after all, he is old and he put his energy mainly on studying military affairs. The new generation of Dionysian citizens received a relatively comprehensive education from an early age, with rich knowledge and wider coverage. As a prince, Crotocatax not only had to receive school education, but also had to complete Daveus to give him The assigned learning tasks have a relatively extensive amount of knowledge, which is not comparable to that of ordinary peers.

"The Nafpaktos people requested that they join Mesenia on the grounds that they are descendants of Mesenia..." Printols tasted what Crotocatax said just now, very He quickly reacted and pondered, "But they are in close contact with Athens. I am afraid there was a secret instigation from Athens... Now the First Fleet patrolling the Aegean Sea has dissatisfied Athens, and now there are Delphi and Olympia priests secretly. activity……

Once Mesenia becomes unstable because of their entry, not only will the Kingdom’s efforts on Mesenia be destroyed, but it will also cause problems in the army’s future, we have to defend! "

"Master Ticias is also aware of this problem, so he wrote to ask for instructions." Crotocatax raised the scroll of paper in his hand, but hesitated in his face: "But we have called out to the whole Greece before. , "Welcome to the motherland of Mesenian immigrants to return to the motherland", the words have just been spoken, how can you regret it now?"

"His Royal Highness, we don't need to repent." Prentals suggested: "We just need to push this matter back and say,'Messenia agreed in principle to their return to their motherland, but because of There are too many people returning. Mesenia does not have enough houses and land for resettlement temporarily. After Mesenia is fully prepared, it will take the initiative to tell them to return.'"

Crotocatax thought: "You mean... After we have defeated Sparta and stabilized the situation in Peloponnese, then agree to the request of the Nafpaktos?"

"Even after we have dominated the situation in Greece, it is okay to notify Nafpaktos. After all, Mesenia is under our control, and of course it is up to us to decide. Anyway, there is no word."

Kroto Kataks nodded, picked up the pen and paper, considered for a while, and prepared to write a reply.

At this time, the Guardian of the Accountant came back to report: "His Royal Highness, the team officer responsible for patrolling the Xiyingmen brought a person saying that he is from Alice, and there is very important news to tell you."

Ellis? ...Croto Kataks was curious and puzzled, put down the pen and said, "Let him come in."

Under the guard of two court guards, a Greek man dressed as a shepherd walked into the tent nervously, and saw Croto Kataks sitting on the head, immediately shouting, "Master! Master! I The owner is Lala of Alice, and he wrote a letter asking me to give it to the commander of the Dionysian army. I took the letter, and I was afraid to be discovered On the mountain road, I didn’t eat much, I was so tired—"

"Don't talk nonsense, get the letter out!" Prentals said quietly.

The man was stunned by the sharp eyes of Prentals, and he was trembling with a sudden shock, and quickly took out the letter from his arms.

The guard immediately submitted the letter.

Crotocatax unfolded the letter, and the contents of the letter made his heart sink suddenly. He stared at the letter for a while. After his mind calmed down, he raised his head and said to the guard: "Take him down first After eating well, tell the finance officer and give him 5 silver coins as a reward!"

"Yes!"

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!..." The man stooped down to salute with joy, and then he remembered something, and said again, "Please also write a reply to the lord, so that my master can rest assured!"

Crotocatax nodded, and after the guard and the messenger withdrew, Printols immediately asked, "His Royal Highness, what happened?" Although Crotocatax covered up, Not bad, but Prentals still saw some clues.

Croto Katak silently handed him the letter.

Pringles quickly read the letter, and his expression became dignified: "His Highness, the letter said,'The priests and pizzas of Olympia persuaded the Ellis parliament to join the Greek alliance against us on the grounds of surrender to Alice. 'The letter also said,'At the council of Ellis, the priests of Olympia declared that their people would soon convince the Oko Manus to rebel against the Arcadian Alliance...'If the situation is really like what the letter says Yes, the situation will be very detrimental to us!"

Clotocattax clasped his hands~www.readwn.com~Although it seemed a little nervous, he still carefully analyzed: "I heard from Master Ticias when I was in Messiah, this is called Io. Nikus’s Ellis MP’s father was a Messenian. He had witnessed our army recapture Messenia from the Spartans, and he spent some time in Mesenia, Together with Ticias, they liberated the Black Heroes and had a certain affection for the Kingdom of Dionysia, so they would write to us immediately after they heard the news.

He is also afraid that once we are defeated, the newly independent Mesenia will once again be occupied by the Spartans...so he should not lie to us. "

"If Alice enemies us, and Oko Manus or more Arcadia city-states also rebel, then our future is threatened, and Mesenia is also likely to be attacked. This Spartan battle is not easy to fight!" Prentals said in a deep voice.

Clotokatax rubbed his hands, and hesitantly asked: "Shall we... lead the army back to Mesenia, see the changes in the situation, and then re-determine the next military action?"
