Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

The attacking troop resounded over the city of Turui, and the free people and slaves gathered in the dock area of ​​the north and south city got the signal and immediately provoked the attack. They took out hidden weapons and attacked the defenders.

Nancheng was on the south bank of the Krati River. It was originally because the citizens who went to the plains on the south bank of the Kraditi River sometimes worked too late and crossed the river at night. So they built some huts on the south bank to spend the night, and then gradually developed into villages, due to the occasional blue The people crossed the mountains, plundered the animals, killed the citizens, and built the walls for safety. Therefore, the south city was not big and the guards were not much. It was only because these two days that the defenders were added, but they were also relieved because of the false ceasefire news. In preparation for the defense, the attack by the free people has made them rush to deal with it, and it has been difficult to parry.

The Crotone soldiers crossed the moat and set up the siege ladder with almost no attack. They quickly occupied the city, laid down the suspension bridge, opened the gate, and the army of Crotone rushed in and dispersed the defenders. In an orderly manner, I took a ferry, a cargo ship, a merchant ship, and the free man served as a sailor, and quickly drove to the north city port.

General Turri heard that Croton's army was under the city, and he was able to issue orders in the future, and the news of the freedom of the people in the north and south city piers was horrified. They rushed to collect citizens to go to the dock to suppress the free people. The elderly over the age of 50 and the teenagers over the age of 14 were put on armor and picked up the shield spear. For them, this is the key moment for the survival of Tuli. Every citizen must stand up and defend their home.

Although it took some time to assemble the citizens, everyone was enemies, and the free people who lost their weapons and equipment lost. But at this moment, Crotone's army landed.

As soon as they landed, they flew directly to Turri's army, and the almost collapsed line of free people quickly stabilized.

Both sides smothered on the narrow streets of the port. Although Crotone has a constant number of soldiers landing, the number is far more than the Turif citizens, but can not be carried out in the narrow lanes. Although the soldiers of Crotone are tall and strong, the team of Turui is mixed with the old and the young, even the generals are on the scene, and there are hundreds of Turai women behind them screaming for their loved ones. Refueling, it is a tragic shout! Crotone is fighting, and Turui is desperate, so the battle can not be held!

Melanius, who had always been in charge, was dragged behind by the leaking ferry, and when it arrived at the dock, it was full of boats and it was hard to find the vacant land. Seeing the battle, he immediately ordered the building on both sides of the roadway.

When the Crotone soldiers began to wrap from the two wings, the Turais gradually lost their support and insisted for a moment. When the citizens were constantly being killed, they finally collapsed.

Neonsis was not willing to flee, but instead faced the enemies who swarmed and greeted them. Since the inauguration of this civilian-general general, he has been well received by citizens with his pragmatic style and diligent and serious work attitude. However, less than two months after he reached the peak of the highest position in the city, he made Turiyi suffer. His shy battle died under the guns of the Crotone soldiers, and several generals such as Polluxs turned and fled.

Burkes and Plesinus led some citizens, women and children to retreat into the Acropolis on the hillside behind the city. There is the temple of Apollo and the altar of Hera goddess. The holy fire has been burning for 41 years since it was built. It is where the spiritual spirit of Turui is maintained, and where their souls rest and sacred! The Turifs decided to make the final resistance here.

Meranthus was late after the occupation of other cities in peace. He ordered the soldiers to ignite the torches, encircle the Turai Aegis, and then let Polcysis pass in: immediately surrender, or burn the Turai Acropolis.

Burkes did not expect the Crotones to be so hot. After all, Apollo was also the city-protector of Crotone, and after a painful decision, they opened the door. At this point, Crotone completely occupied the city of Turui.

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

When the news reached Tuli, Davers was training camp to see the military training of the citizens. He learned that Turui was falling, and he and the team officials were shocked.

"I really didn't think that Turui fell like this!" Hilos said with emotion.

"If it wasn't for Turif that did not deal with the conflict between the free people and the slaves, how could it easily get Crotone?" Amintas was obviously not convinced of Crotone's record.

"But the general of Crotone is not simple. Even with the help of the free people, when he can use the tricks to blind Turi, and then suddenly attack, the offensive organization is also very capable, can take in less than five hours. In the city of Tuli, the Crotone soldiers are also well-trained!” Daves sensible analysis: “The army of Crotone can be said to be the 800 Spartan led by the guest Sophos. Beyond the warriors, one of the strong enemies we have encountered so far must be vigilant!” Davers warned everyone.

"But we are not afraid of him!" Amintas was not convinced.

"Yes, we must have this spirit! We value the enemy, but we are not afraid of the enemy. We dare to fight any enemy!" Daves inspired everyone.

"The head of the army (in the military camp, Davers asked everyone to call his army, not an administrative position), then how should we deal with it?" Alexis asked.

"What is your opinion?" Davers asked him.

Alexis thought and said: "There are many sentries to monitor the movement of the Crotone army and strengthen the defense of Amendola..."

"Very good, let's wait and see." Daves said that although Crotone had already occupied Turui and showed its power, Daves was very happy to see that none of his team officers proposed Take the initiative to show Crotone.

Looking at the soldiers who are actively training on the training ground, remembering the Crotone inner army that was plundering in the city of Turui, Daves had no fear in his heart.

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

At this time, in the city of Turui, Melanius did not restrain his soldiers after occupying the whole city, causing the soldiers to arrogate in the city, robbing property, injuring the people, and even women. The Turif people were miserable.

Melsius took a fancy to one of the most luxurious homes. After driving the owner away, he lived in it and set up a banquet with his officers to celebrate the victory.

When he was drinking, he listened to the niece in his arms and said: There is a disciple of historian Herodotus in the city of Turui. I immediately came to the interest and let the guards come to bring this person.

When Ansitanos arrived here, I saw a group of Crotones in the hall lying diagonally on the reclining chair, drinking a lot of wine, chewing food, holding beautiful women in their arms. Most of those who take the initiative to smile and flirt are senior prostitutes. Most of them are Tuli women.

Some of the Crotones are bragging about this victory, and they are screaming at Meranthic; some are talking about some vulgar jokes, and the stupid and poor protagonist is the Turai; others Just looking up and down, and the woman in the arms directly under the public and doing the shameful things... In the laughter and laughter, Ansitanos tightened his face, stepping on the marble floor flowing around the wine, and entered the hall.

"Oh, the historian of Turui is coming!" Meranthus drank a lot, but his mind was still awake, and he patted the woman's full chest in her arms: "Go and pour him a glass of wine."

The woman handed the wine to Ansitas, and he took a sip without hesitation.

"Turily, are you celebrating drinking for our victory?!" A military officer took the opportunity to smile and run on him.

"No, I am just remembering the city of Sibalis, which was once famous for its wines in Greece. It was strong at the time. Crotone was weak, just like Crotone and Turui today, but The strong and weak are finally going to perish," Ansitanos said calmly.

"Ha! Ha! Ha!..." Melanius laughed: "Unfortunately, the weak Crotone was destroyed by the powerful Sobaris! Today, the weak Turui is a powerful Crowe Tone occupied, your statement is totally wrong!"

"The gods are on ~www.readwn.com~ and then the powerful city-states will finally escape." Ansitanos sternly back.

"Maybe that day... oh..." Melanthus made a wine cellar and said, "But you and I may not have a chance to see it." Speaking of this, he sat up and said loudly: "Listen. Say you are a disciple of Herodotus. If you want to write history in the future, is there any name in my book and this brilliant victory for future generations to know?!"

"No, only the sins and ugliness you committed in Turui!" Ansitanos replied coldly.

"Bold!"

"Do you want to live in this Turif?"

......

When the officers heard this, they roared and even dumped food on him.

Melanius waved his hand and disagreed with the provocation of Ansitanos. Instead, he took up the glass and said proudly: "The winner proves his strength by action, and the loser can only use his defense to prove his weakness. 'This is the motto of the athletes. The ancient heroes will only enjoy the joy of capturing Troy, no one will care about the conquered people - the pain of the Trojans, if they fail, they will admit, just like Lucania... ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered something and asked: "I heard that the governor of Amendola Lama... Daives used 6,000 people to annihilate the 10,000 people of the Lukania coalition. This is true. Is it true that it is the merit of Tarantom? Or is it really his credit?"

"It is indeed the battle he planned and organized." Ansitanos answered truthfully.

"It seems that this Duffus is still a personal thing... I don't know who I am and who is better than him?" Meranthus was eager to try.

Ancitanus looked at him and said in his heart, "You are standing behind a powerful Crotone, and there is only a small Amendola Lara behind him."
