Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

The Volsi people did not like the Campanias to hold a grand banquet to welcome the arrival of the Dionysian army. They quickly and carefully asked Amintas: Can you explain to him in detail now? The situation of the war and the beginning of discussion on how the two sides should cooperate and meet the Romans.

Amintas did not think about it, and immediately agreed.

This made the Walsi people's perception of the Dionyrians a big step.

As a result, the two sides held a military meeting in the conference room of the governor's office in Serre.

When the map of Wolsey and the surrounding area in cowhide was unfolded on the table, Amintas and Printors immediately opened their eyes: although the map is rough, it may not be accurate. However, it is at least detailed in the map of Central Italy produced by the Department of Military Affairs of Dionia. After all, there are many races and forces in this area. Some forces do not welcome outsiders at all. Plus, there is no foundation in Dionia. Therefore, the intelligence department of Aristilas has no way to let his men go deep into the inland to explore.

At the time of the two men's refinement, Selce's governor, Toulouse, pointed at the map and said heavily in Greek: "General Amintas and General Printors, more than 30,000 Rome more than a month ago. People invaded our Walsi territory and surrounded the city of Villitre. Because we had just suffered a failure to fight the Romans, we barely gathered 20,000 people to go to the rescue and in the city of Villitre. Outside the battle with the Romans, the result was again defeated..."

Having said that, Toulouse’s face was intertwined with anger and shame. He coughed and continued: “After our defeat, the Romans began to attack the city of Villitre, they used a terrible siege device. It is possible to launch stones in far away places and to bombard the walls, and as a result, the walls are opened by them, causing the collapse of the city of Villitre..."

Printols was shocked: "Does the Romans also make guns?!"

As the Dionia veteran, Amintas has been participating in the emergency meeting of the Senate on Carthage affairs. After receiving the appointment of Daves, he also went to the Ministry of Military Affairs to read some about Rome. The secret information, so many things to understand, he saw the surprise on Princeton's face, so he whispered to him: "It should be given by the Carthaginians. They formed a military alliance with the Romans. It is said that In the past, the fleet was sent to Rome to fund weapons and equipment. Before I led the army to leave Turui, the Carthage messenger once went to our Senate to express support for the Romans and tore up the agreement with us...

The Ministry of Military Affairs does have information about the Carthage people’s secret attempts to develop artillery and siege towers... but Printols is even more shocked: because in this situation, Dionya and Carthol The base is likely to have a war!

Toulouse noticed the change of the two generals of Dionynia, but he did not stop telling: "The Romans continued to attack Saturnik after the capture of Villitre. This time, we learned the lesson. Instead of fighting in the Romans, but fighting the city, it repeatedly defeated the Romans' offense, but --"

Toulouse once again said indignantly: "After a few days ago, another Roman army suddenly attacked Antigua, because most of Antigua’s citizens went to help Saturnic, so there is no Under the defense, they were attacked by them! This Roman army, after occupying Antigua, traveled rapidly along the coast and south. In order to prevent them from cutting off their roads, most of our reinforcements had to evacuate Sartre. Nikum..."

Toulouse’s face showed painful color. He sighed: “What is the situation in Saturnicum now? We are not very clear, but there are not many soldiers in the city, I am afraid it will not last long. But we It can't help it now, because the Roman army's offensive speed is very fast, and this piece -"

Toulouse used his fingers to draw a small circle on the map: "There are no big towns, only a few villages and several small towns, and the terrain is very flat. Although there are several rivers, they can easily walk, so We rushed to organize an army to stop and was defeated by the Romans... Now they have reached the city of Setia."

Amintas found that the place where the finger of Toulouse was on the map seemed to be not too far from Serre, and immediately interjected: "How far is this city from us?"

"There are about 40 miles." Toulouse's answer gave Amintas and Printors a look at each other, and expressed the same meaning in his eyes: No wonder the Wolsey people are eager to hold a military conference, the Romans They are about to kill the door!

Toulouse’s fingers moved slightly south on the map, pointing to another city very close to the city of Setia: now our reinforcements are concentrated in the city of Plebenham, but the deceitful Romans Stopping the attack on the city of Setia, but building a camp not far from the city, we have been holding for several days, but once another Roman army has captured our Saturnicum After the city, come and meet, I am afraid that they are going to attack! ”

Toulouse’s face was worried, and the rest of the room was also worried.

Amintas thought about it and pointed to the icon of Pleefnum on the map and asked, "How many people are you here?"

"There are about 12,000 people." After Toulouse answered the question, he did not care about Tibetan mastiffs. He also emphasized: "This is the biggest force that our Wolsey Alliance can now make, including Olund and West Dini has sent us 3000 reinforcements."

The people of Worthy who were present were ashamed and saddened: the Wolsey people who once dominated the Latin Quarter were now ruined by the fact that even 10,000 soldiers could not make it.

Tapirus, who was listening to it, showed a clear look: No wonder at the port, not many Walsh citizens in the city!

Amintas didn't care about this. He pointed to the icon of the city of Setia and asked: "How many people are there in the Roman army?"

"I am afraid there will be no less than 12,000 people, because there are two military and political officers in the Roman army. According to Rome's regulations, usually a military and political officer leads a legion. They have a corps of about 5,000, plus some. The army of the Roman allies..."

After Toulouse had not finished, Tapirus could not help but exclaimed: "There is also a legion in Rome?!"

Amintas looked at him and said calmly: "Yes, there are also Legion in Rome. And its preparation is similar to our Legionian army."

Before coming, Amintasite went to the Ministry of Military Affairs to learn some information about Rome. When he saw the military system describing Rome, he was also shocked. He still thought: the Romans had stolen us. Onia's Legion Tactics! But it also reduced some of his little heart for the Roman army.

"More than 12,000 people, if they meet with another Roman army of more than 30,000 people, there will be nearly 50,000 Roman troops near the city of Setia," Amintas said slowly.

The Wolse people in the house were all looking very dignified. After the alliance with Dionia, they thought that this powerful Southern League Congress sent more troops here. I didn't expect to send only 10,000 people. Of course, after listening to Metebola’s explanation that “Diaonia could not send more troops because of drought and lack of food”, they expressed their understanding: In fact, Wolsey wants to give more than 10,000 The Nigerian army, as well as their own army, supplied military supplies and felt a little difficult.

Amintas is also very dignified. Of course, he knows that the First Legion is brave enough to defeat 50,000 Roman soldiers, because according to the information, the Romans have been fighting for a long time, not as good as the weak Tarantum. Deal with.

He stared at the map, thought for a while, pointed to the west side of the map on the map, and said resolutely: "Tomorrow, I will lead my troops to camp here, and then depending on the situation, can you induce this? The Roman army will fight with us!"

When Amintas finished, his eyes looked around at the house, and when he fell on Princetons, he paused a little and asked hesitantly: "Printoles, do you have any suggestions?" ?"

If it is the former Alexis ~ www.readwn.com ~ he will first ask Printos's opinion, and then after careful consideration, make his own decision. It is clear that Amintas has not adapted to the existence of Prindors. This question is obviously perfunctory.

In his heart, Printors compared the style characteristics of these two important Dionysian generals and gently shook his head: "I have no opinion, the leader of the army is correct!"

Indeed, Polifnam is an important town in Wolsey. The First Corps built a camp on the west side. The two sides are each other's corners, which undoubtedly added great difficulties to the Roman army's storm. The western part of the camp to be built is a swamp area, thus establishing a relatively defensive line to protect the most important towns of Worthy and the surrounding fields in Teresina and Serre. It also ensures that these towns and villages will continue to provide logistical support to the camp. Of course, if the Romans gave up the attack on the city of Setia and the Camp of Dionia, forcing through the larger gap between the camp and the swamp area, and attacking the empty seletar of the rear, the Romans would brave The danger of closing the dog! Printors analyzed the strengths and weaknesses of Amintas' decision.

Printos agreed, but the Walsh people have not expressed their position. Amintas has already patted the table and said: "This is the case! I will take the army tomorrow morning!"
