Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Antonios turned to open the page and saw three people named Duffest. He was familiar with the three names. The first one was his little nephew, Paphos, and the other two were He is extremely familiar with the children and relatives of Naxos and Katanay, although they are the lowest-level team officers who are promoted - the team leader (the captain is not included in the ranks of the officers, the head of the army can be directly appointed), At this moment, he knows that these three people may not be able to meet the requirements for promotion.

The performance of the other two in the training camp, he is not too clear, but what is his nephew, he is clear, in Turui, Paphogris was late for many times to participate in military training, the team The official punishment was also reflected to him. After his severe criticism, he barely performed better. To be honest, when Paphos was driven back to Naxos by La Odesian, Antonios also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He did not expect this idiot to return home, and the disaster was even greater!

"Your Majesty... I am really... I really don’t know that Paphos is on this list, I know him, his ability... is not enough to serve as the captain." Antonios stuttered. He regretted in his heart: Why didn't you check the list carefully so much that he made such a big mistake!

"You are fairly pertinent in this statement, but as the military minister of the kingdom, it is unqualified to say such words." Daphus stared at him, but the volume was light, but the tone was heavy: "Let's see this again."

Said, he handed a letter to Antonios, this is the letter written by the current Eighth Army Chief Leotitzides. In the letter, he described the military training of the Eighth Army, and gave a special introduction to the military training performance of the Paphos trio mentioned by Davers. "Be late, training is not serious, and the instructor is backing... ..." and so on, the words in the eyes of Anton Rios, let him be scared.

Leo Tizides! Antonios remembered this person: he performed well in the First Army, and was promoted to the captain in just a few years, and in the year of Brindisi, King Petchi led the remaining elite troops to retaliate. Most of the Daonian Legion companies dispersed their formations and began to chase down the squad. Only Leo Tizides still controlled the formation of the brigade and blocked the Pucciti in time. The passage of the Chinese army in Sri Lanka has won valuable time for the arrival and encirclement of other troops, and thus left a deep impression on Davers.

After the resignation of the head of the Eighth Army, the first corps leader of the First Corps, Krusssus, refused to take office. Daves kissed Leo Tiddides, who was then the third captain of the First Corps, to take over. Thus he became the only infantry commander in the Kingdom of Dionia, a former non-formal mercenary, and the youngest army leader.

This person usually does not sneer or laugh, nor does he love to interact with other people. He is strict and serious about military training. When he is angry, he will fight soldiers. Someone in the army nicknamed him "mad."

For the situation described in Thaksin, Antonios believes, just how Divers is. For the military training performance of these unnamed pawns, he also wrote a letter to ask Leo Tiddides, who is far away from Sicily. The matter itself made Antonios feel scared.

"Your Majesty, I... I couldn’t manage the military department, and there was such a big mistake. I asked... to ask for punishment!" Antonios bent down and bowed his sins.

"You should be punished." Davis looked coldly: "Your little nephew killed five or six female slaves in a row, and the means were cruel. Such a person could still be promoted to be the captain! After I heard the news spread, I am afraid that the Senate The veterans will start to bomb you, and the guards will also protest! You..." Daves sighed and seemed to worry about him.

Anthony was sweating coldly and his body bent lower. He said slyly, "Your Majesty, I... I am asking to resign as the Minister of Military Affairs..."

For a long while, he heard the sound of Daves's regret: "Okay... This is also good. You have resigned from the position of military minister on the grounds of illness. For the time being, don't go to the Senate. First, avoid this time... Also, don't look for someone else for your nephew, and the court will give him a fair ruling."

"Yes..." Antonios whispered in response, feeling a touch of ease in his heart, but more and more lost.

Daves put down the roster and the letter, then whispered: "Anthony, you have been in Sicily for many years, your wife is a Sicilian, you should know more about the Sicilian, can you tell me why the same is the veteran, Most of the elders in other places have their homes in Turui. Even if they own land in other towns, they mainly use it as a place to increase their income. They occasionally bring their families to live, but the Sicilian elders have as many as possible in Sicily. Buying land and using it as another home, let some families live for a long time, and even make extensive public relations in the local area to raise the prestige of their family in the local area, why?"

Despite the peace of Dafoss, Antonios felt Devers's repressed anger from this plain tone. He became more shocked and tried his best, causing another sweaty wave: "Your Majesty, I want to These veterans of Sicily and our great Greek elders have different performances because of...the performance is different..."

"Oh, you talk about it." Daphus eyebrows slightly pick.

Antonios thought for a while and then said with caution: "Your Majesty, because Naxos and Katanay were destroyed by Syracuse, their people lost their homes and were forced to go into exile. They had to be in the mountains in order to survive. In the middle of the construction of a colony, the election of the leader, led them to defend against the attack on their Sikels, and from time to time by Syracuse organized to clear their mercenaries, and the beasts in the mountains, they died a lot of people Life is also very difficult, these will only make them more miss the hometown of the fall, so after regaining the lost land, they cherish the land of their hometown.

Most of the leaders of the exiles eventually became the veterans of Dionynia. In those years of exile, they have become the pillars of the exiles in Sicily. The people have troubles to find them. After joining Dionya, these elders Still maintaining these habits...

Moreover, most of these veterans were nobles. Before Naxos and Katanay were not destroyed, they served as generals and parliamentarians of city-states. They were not like the veterans of the Great Greece, before the rise of our Kingdom of Tania. The forces of the Thom Alliance, the Turif League, the Crotone League, the Lockley League, and the Lijim League are basically stable and form a balance. But in Sicily, in addition to Syracuse and Carthage, the generals and parliamentarians of other city-states need to constantly make decisions based on changes in the situation on the island. Is it to unite with other city-states to confront these two powerful states? One of the two powerful states...so they have to maintain friendly relations with the neighboring neighbors, the Syracuse and the Carthage, and they like to hold regular banquets, give gifts, and gang s reason. ”

"You know very well. It seems that a Sicilian woman is still good." Daphus said a meaningful sentence and then said with aggravating: "The bad habits of the Sicilian people have been learned by some of our veterans. The impact is very bad! It is the Catania plain that merged into the Kingdom of Dionia, not that Dionia became part of their Sicily, anyone must strictly abide by the laws of Dionia! It seems that they have all been ten years before they Still not aware of this!"

When he heard the last sentence, Antonios became more shocked and did not dare to answer.

"Anthony, my old friend, although you are sick at home, but you can't overeating and hurt your body! Now the Danny are defeated in the River Ovant, and it will take us long before their territory will be conquered by us. There are still a lot of tricky things, you need to be able to deal with such a powerful veteran!" Daves encouraged the words to make the frustrated Antonios spirit, he was excited to respond: "Your Majesty, I am always ready for your call!"

Davers looked at him and left the office~www.readwn.com~ The look on his face slowly turned cold, although he knew that the Sicilian veterans headed by La Odesian just wanted to The son will have better development in the future, and will only play the role of the army. Although he has become a team officer of the legion, he does not have any rights in his daily social life, but he is serving as a kingdom official or running for local councillors and civil servants. It has a very big advantage and is a priority, and their identity will be respected by the people in their daily lives.

But Davers was very angry about their disruption of the military order. Since the establishment of Dionia, he has been firmly in the hands of the army that laid the foundation of his power. Other veterans simply can't get in the way. The appointment and dismissal of officers is a matter of words. The military law is mainly decided by him. It will be discussed with the main generals, but it will never be decided by any Senate, so the army is completely a closed system. But I did not expect that after more than a decade, there were also bad signs. The personnel of the military department may have been bribed by these Sicilian veterans. Perhaps they also want to please Antonios. This is a violation of the regulations. Reese and others were included in the list of promotions.

Davers was only because of the Naxos case, just the officer’s promotion list was still on the desk. This was the only way to check the promotion list of the Eighth Army. Then, did the other unqualified and promoted team officers have What? Davers didn't dare to think about it.
