Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 8 Chapter 59: The dispute of the Roman Senate (2)

Apelius’s accusation of such a severe squad against Camerus made the elders feel lost.

Camillas is a gentle-minded, person-friendly person. He has been criticized in the Senate from time to time, and he can be calm, but at this moment he is staring at Apleus, and his eyes flashed with anger, because it is this person. More than a decade ago, he was accused of taking the spoils for himself, and eventually he was tried and forced to leave Rome.

Apelius faced Camillaus's gaze but did not escape. These years, with Camillaus's victory one after another, the prestige is getting higher and higher, and it makes his situation difficult. He often walks in the city. From time to time, he can hear someone pointing at him and shouting: "That is the obituary card. Mulhouse, may Jupiter sin against him!". In this case, the reason why he can sit in the Senate is because some big people don't want to see Camille's prestige too high. Some veterans are jealous of his merits and need someone to be against him.

Apelius understood his value, so he never concealed his hostility towards Camilos.

"I have never heard such ridiculous words!" Pantheon, the military and political officer, stood up and loudly defended his former chief: "How can the failure of the battle blame Camillaus! We did not promptly inform Camilos about their news that the 'Daonia army has arrived'! To blame, no one would have thought that the Dionysian army had just arrived at Wolsey and began to take military action. !

Anyone who has commanded the battle should know very well that Camilleus’s command in that battle did not make any mistakes, and that any Roman general would choose to save the danger in that situation. Roman citizens and allied soldiers! The only downside of Camilos is that he did not expect the combat strength of the Dionyrian army to be so powerful! But before I have never played with the Dionys, which one of the elders can know! ”

"Oh, so all this can only blame Dionia is too strong?" Apelius disdainfully ridiculed.

"There are rumors that the Kingdom of Dionia has the most powerful army on this land. It seems that this is not a tout. The arrival of their army has caused us to suffer successive failures. This must cause us to be vigilant! We Now we should not pursue the question of who is right and who is wrong in this battle, but should discuss how to face the threat of Dionia in the next step. This is the problem that we urgently need to solve now!" Ambustus looks Said dignified.

"Yeah, and Diaonia also has a strong fleet that threatens our allies and colonial cities." The veteran veteran Lukritius then supported Camillaus, he said: Camilles made a calm judgment. You have chosen a timely retreat. It is absolutely correct! The safety of Rome and the allies is far more important than getting a few pieces of Wolsey land!"

One or two important elders endorsed Camillaus, and others were not good enough to blame. The failure of this battle, and even the failure of Kuntus to attack the city, no one would mention it.

"The fathers and the newcomers are new." Paulus, the rotating political and political officer of this meeting, finally began to speak, bringing the issue to the focus of this meeting: "The Kingdom of Dionia in southern Italy has already fought with us in Rome. Judging from the current situation, Dionia has a strong army and a strong fleet, which poses a great threat to our Rome! The previous battles only occurred in the Wolsey area, and the battles are likely after It will also be extended to our allies and even to Rome. Do you have any good suggestions to avoid such a bad situation?"

"I have said before that we should not be tempted by the Carthaginians and sin against Dionya. This will be detrimental to the development of Rome. Now the facts have already explained everything!" The high priest Fragus got up. The worried proposal: "In order to prevent further violations of the Dionyrians, we should immediately stop the war with Wolsey, sign an armistice agreement with Worthy, and return the occupied territory of Wolsey. Sending people to talk with Dionya. Diaonia and Rome have no hatred in the past. At present, they are facing drought in the country. After losing the reason for launching the war, they will be happy to stop this for them. Meaningless war!"

"The high priest is right!" The proposal of Fragus was approved by some of the veterans. This is relatively rare for the Roman veterans who have always been aggressive and less compromised. How much pressure is in Rome.

If someone else said this, Quintus, who has always hated to surrender and compromise, has long roared, but the full name of Fragus is Fragus Yulius, born in the Julius clan. It is rumored that this clan is a descendant of the **** of war Mars and Venus, their immediate ancestor is Yurus, the first king of Albalonga (Albarunga was once the center of the entire Latin region, the Roman builders After the defeat of Rome in Albalonga, the Julius clan moved to Rome. Because of his noble descent and descendants of God, his people often served as high priests and spoke for the gods.

Although the high priest has no real power, but his status is honorable, and Fragus has been respected by the people since he took office. Quintus considers its influence and the tone will be more moderate: "The high priest, I think you should I have not forgotten a resolution just passed by the Senate a few days ago, 'will use Willitre, Antioum, and Satnikum as colonial cities, and part of their land will be allocated to civilians without land.' Now you have to let We will return the occupied land back to Wolsey. Do you think the civilians who are ready to go to these colonial cities will agree?! You must not want to see the civilians again to launch a riot!

Also, Wolsey has always been our deadly enemy of Rome. This time we almost wiped it out. Is it hard to get help from Diaonia, will it only be satisfied with the truce with our Rome? ! It is sure that we will hope that with the help of the Dionyrian army, we will take the opportunity to destroy our Rome and let Worthy never again be threatened by us! ”

"I agree with Quintus!" Pantius then loudly expressed support: "Since Rome, since the establishment of the state, there has never been a precedent for choosing to compromise and surrender when it is only facing the threat of the enemy. In our case! Rome has encountered less powerful power than it has in the past, but we have grown stronger in the constant battle! Today, as long as we Romans united, dare to continue with Diaonia Fighting, I believe the final victory still belongs to us in Rome!"

"Pantius said yes, we Rome never compromised!" Younger veterans responded to Pantius loudly. There are still some veterans who have not made a sound, but their eyes are also shining with war.

Fragus's face was a bit unsightly. He snorted and said, "We were tempted by the Carthaginians to have a war with Dionya, but the Carthaginians promised us to wear in Sicily. Ona started the war, but did they do it?! Carthage also has a strong navy, but they are hiding in their port, not attacking the Dania fleet! Everyone, we must be careful not to let Rome become Cana The sword in Taiji’s hand was cut into gaps and even broken, but in the end nothing was obtained!”

"Flagus is right!" Another unconstrained veteran, Priusus Cornelius Scipia, loudly reminded: "We Romans do not refuse to fight, but we Nor can it be a fool and be used by others. The Carthaginians want to use us to deal with the Diaonians, but if they don’t contribute, we can’t be stupid enough to be completely instructed by them, so we must urge them to send troops immediately. To tell them clearly, 'Carthage not only wants to attack the territory of the Dionyrians in Sicily, but also defeat their fleet and protect the coast of our Latin region, otherwise we will have to be with the Danians in Rome. Armistice!'"

The elders understood the meaning of Scipio, and they all agreed, and soon reached a consensus: after the meeting, Paulus immediately went to the Carthage messenger in the city, threatening The tone urged Carthage to send troops as soon as possible!

At this time, Potitos, sitting in the front of the ivory chair in the venue, said slowly: "Camilus, you are the greatest general of Rome, and this time it has repeatedly played against the Dionys. According to your past habits~www.readwn.com~ I believe that you have seriously considered how to fight against Dionia in the next question. Can you tell us something?"

After Pottyus’s words were finished, all the veterans looked at Camillaus and raised their ears. Although some people have the reputation of Camillaus, no one can deny Camillaus’ military talent. He not only succeeded in repeated battles, but also saved Rome several times, and the military reform under his auspices also made The other generals in Rome commanded the army more conveniently and brought more victories. Therefore, Camillaus was the greatest reliance of the Romans. When the crisis came, everyone would think of him involuntarily.

Camilles did not deny it. Because of his concern for Rome, he had long wanted to discuss with the seniors of the Senate how to deal with the next crisis. At this moment, he seriously thought for a while, then faced the veterans, first thanked them for forgiving their failure in the battle, then he solemnly said: "First of all, everyone must be deeply aware that Dionia is The most powerful and dangerous enemy we have faced so far.
