Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

When the words came out, everyone felt a little depressed.

"This is the arrangement of the goddess of fate. Who told us that we didn't follow Davers at the beginning!" Tormed exclaimed: "Duffus is a god-dead, and he has created such a big cause in just half a year. We are now It’s not too late to follow him!”

Listening to the words of Tolmide, Zandiparis, who has stepped into the old age, looks up at the silent starry sky. A sentimental rush comes to his heart: "I don't know what you feel? I am old, I am tired of wandering around. Keep killing, after today I am afraid that there is no life for tomorrow, it is good to settle down here..."

After this was said, everyone was silent.

"Well, you should not consider the future, first think about how to smoothly receive other companions in the next time, and not let them make trouble, otherwise we will have trouble!" Tima Song worried about everyone.

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

The concerns of Tima Song were fulfilled in the early morning of the next day.

Tima Song, they have not yet arrived at the port, they learned that there are more than a dozen outsiders grabbing things in the market, and they also clashed with the managers who came, hurting people until the market patrols all came (a full 50 people) , a team) to arrest them. Tima Song rushed to see it. It turned out to be their mercenary. Finally, he invited Agarcia, lost money and made a guarantee. The mercenary was also sentenced to one month of labor. This was the end of the matter.

In order to prevent such a recurrence, Tima Song simply rented a house in the port.

Even so, the conflicts that have occurred every day have begun to increase, and most of them have been related to these mercenaries. Even the veterans proposed at the meeting to expel these mercenaries from the alliance and restore peace to the alliance. West Asia, Antonios, Caps and other people opposed the abortion, but also made Davers feel a little pressure.

The time flies fast. By the end of November, the shipyard of En Anilus was built, and Davis and other veterans attended the ceremony and offered orders to the shipyard: three three-layer paddles.

The establishment of the Dionysian fleet as soon as possible has been put on the agenda by the Senate to protect the increasingly prosperous ports and maritime trade of the Union, while also changing the two alliances of the Dionysian Union without a fleet or even less than it. The embarrassing truth.

At the beginning of December, the church hall of the Turui Senate was completed, and finally the elders finally had an important meeting to go to Amendola, and they did not keep secret, but also spent energy, and the history of the bad luck of the coaches came to an end. .

At the same time, the bridges on the Krati River in Turui-Castellon Avenue are still under construction and the land has been completely built. The Turile Arena is also about to be completed.

At the time of the good news from various construction sites, a small cargo ship embroidered with a big "∧" symbol on a sail entered the Gulf of Taranto in the Great Greece. The vessels that saw it saw this sign and took the initiative to avoid it. Give way to the fairway.

Fibidas, the Spartan general who just passed the year, thought it was right. He instructed the helmsman: driving straight towards the port of Turui, without any refuge.

In the western Mediterranean, Sparta has the most dealings with Syracuse, so there is some understanding of Sicily. For the big Greeks, most Spartans have little understanding. Apart from seeing the players from the big Greek city-states at the sports meeting, there is no contact in other aspects. The real Spartan citizens can't do business, with the big Greeks. There is no trade in the city-states... Therefore, after entering this sea, Phibidas looked at everything around him with great interest.

After looking at the port of Tulari, he said to the follower Dorobissis: "The merchant ships here are really a lot, I think it is similar to Collins."

Dorobissis is a Pelican. The Piris are also the dreamers of Lacy, but they are not Spartan citizens. Most of them live on the border of Lagonia. They are free and have the right to deal with local affairs, but there is no political right in the city of Sparta. In the past, they were mainly engaged in commerce and trade that Spartan citizens could not engage in. Now, because of the long-term war, the number of Spartan citizens has decreased, and these Pioriasi people have begun to join the army. Because of the different occupations he had previously, Dolby's character had little activity in the Spartans. He looked at the ship's rafting of the Krati estuary and deliberately asked: "Collins is now in a slump in port trade. Nothing is lively here. Fibidas, you should ask me, 'How is it compared with Athens?'"

When it comes to Athens, the face of Phibidas sinks. Originally defeated in Athens, Laishande set up a "30-member parliament" in Athens in an attempt to control the political situation in Athens. Although some Athenians rose up against it, if Sparta fully supported this parliament, the resistance of the Athenians would not be a climate, but the king The elders led by Sunias and Diopetis and Laishande did not, but not only deprived Lashande of military command, but also promoted the Presbyterian Council and the Athenian Democratic Party. In the end, the Athenian democrats overthrew the 30-member parliament and established a new democratic regime, and the policies implemented by Athens, which had been painfully learned, became more flexible than before. On the one hand, they tried to please Sparta, but on the other hand they used up all kinds of The method of restoring post-war trade and agriculture... This is only a few years after the trade in Athens has re-emerged.

Phibidas snorted and stopped talking.

At this time, the Diavian patrol boat greeted.

Fibidas said loudly: "I am the messenger of Sparta, I want to see the consuls of your alliance!"

The patrol boat did not dare to neglect and immediately drove back to Turui.

The diplomatic affairs like Sparta’s visit are of course handled by the Senate. More than 50 elders in the Senate can't be guarded in the Chamber of Deputies every day, because not every day there is a big event that requires the Senate's elders to meet and deal with it, and many of the veterans have public office, so Davers takes a rotation system. That is, every five elders are worth a day at the council and the other five are on the second day.

Just as the patrol boat rushed to the synagogue, Daves had already received an urgent report from Aristilas in his own courtyard.

Spartan messenger visit! Davers frowned and immediately thought that Sparta might come for Timothy.

Soon, the patrol boat returned to the sea, indicating that the Spartan warship followed it.

Before coming, Fibidas didn't know Turui. He didn't know that the city of Turui was not with the port. This is similar to Athens, but it does not use the wall to connect the port to the city. In the event of a war, the port is easily occupied, and Pfeidas looks at everything in front of him with a military eye.

"There is no such big river in Athens, and you see that the terrain is very flat, the soil should be very fertile, and the agriculture in Turui should be very good!" Followed by Dorobissis, it was observed with an economic eye.

After sailing for a few miles, Fibidas saw the towers of Turui on both sides of the strait and the chains that hang in the air across the Krati River. Fibidas knows that once a fleet of foreign enemies breaks into the sea and the river, the river chain will be put down and the warship will be blocked from entering the city's waterway.

The patrol boat finally entered the dock on the north shore.

Pfeidas found that the docks, the trestles, and the houses on the shore were all neat, and only the pier on the far side was dark, so Dorobissis asked the captain of the patrol boat curiously.

"That was reserved by our governor, Daphus. Everywhere in the city, including temples, he wants every citizen of our country to see these ruins wherever they go, always reminding ourselves. The city was burned down by the invaders. We must bear in mind this great shame. Don't let Turui be bullied again. Only by triumphing can it restore its glory in the past! Just a few days ago, we have repaired a place. Ruins because we got Niutum!"

Looking at the captain's solemn and proud look, Fibidas was not convinced on the surface, but his heart was touched.

At this time, a team of guards came.

Fibidas observes their spiritual outlook and every move. It can be seen that this is a well-trained and disciplined soldier and certainly has a wealth of practical experience. To be honest, apart from Spartan citizens, he has never seen other patrols in other cities. They can maintain a good formation in their own city and can be put into battle at any time. He is indeed a bit surprised.

The captain and the patrol captain Oliver made a handover and drove away.

"Your soldier must stay on board, please go with me to the Senate House!" Oliver said seriously to Fibidas: "The league has regulations that foreign soldiers are not allowed in the city!"

"They are Spartan fighters! They are free to enter and exit any Greek city-state!" Fibidas said loudly and confidently. Although it is a bit exaggerated, the Spartans do have this privilege in many Greek city-states in the Eastern Mediterranean, so many city-states are dissatisfied with it~www.readwn.com~ Oliver looked at him and said, "I don't think so:" I know who you are, I don't care what you do in other city-states, but as long as you set foot on the land of the Dionysian Union, you have to abide by our laws!"

Filibidas was very annoyed, but patrol captain Oliver did not give up, a firm look of "either you obey the league rules, or you withdraw from the league territory."

In the end, Dorobissis made a compromise and allowed these Spartan fighters to change into casual clothes before they were allowed to pass.

Phibidas took a sigh of relief and entered the city of Turui. Before he came, he heard that Turui was burned down by the Crotones a few months ago, but it was almost invisible in the city: the streets were flat and wide, and a new courtyard was arranged in an orderly manner. The flowers bloom. Looking far away, you can also see two long elevated water diversion bridges extending from the huge two-wheel-like devices on the river bank to the center of the east and west, through the towering water tower, the river is Introduce several pools where children are playing. There are fountains and statues in the pool for the people to drown and rest. The water continues to pass through the drainage holes in several directions below the pool, and flows through the ditch along the street before the houses of thousands of households, washing away the garbage and dust, making the whole city clean and tidy, and moisturizing with water. The whole city is full of vitality.
