At this time, the guards outside the gate shouted: "The leaders of Numibia are here!"

Afterwards, dozens of Numibians who were shabby and even unwashed walked into the compound uneasy.

Only then did the generals know why so many tables were arranged.

Davos stood up and said loudly with a smile: "Welcome, new friends of the Kingdom of Dionia! Please sit down!"

As soon as Davos finished speaking, Henepolis immediately translated loudly next to him. He did not speak Numibian, he spoke Carthaginian. Over the years, he assisted King Davos in researching about Carthage. He began to learn the Carthaginian language by himself, and now he speaks it fluently, while the Numibians have been under the rule of Carthage for a long time, and most of the leaders can speak the Carthaginian language.

After Henepolis finished translating, Davos immediately began to applaud, and the generals applauded one after another under his leadership.

The Numibian leaders felt the goodwill given by the Dionians, and felt a little relieved, and took their seats under the guidance of the soldiers.

After seeing everyone sitting down, Davos picked up a glass of wine and said loudly: "Today is a very worthy day to celebrate! Under the excellent command of our generals and the heroic battles of our soldiers, With the cooperation of our new Numibian friends, we have completely defeated the Carthaginian army! From now on, we will no longer defend, but attack! Attack again! So for this glorious victory, we did This cup!"

"cheers!"

"cheers!"

...

All the generals were excited and raised their wine glasses, even like Matonis and Olivers, banging their hands on the table and shouting loudly.

After listening to Henepolis's translation, the Numibian leaders also raised their glasses one after another.

Everyone drank it.

Davos immediately filled another glass, and then said: "This second glass of wine, we want to pay tribute to the new friends of Numibia. In the past, Dionia and Numibia were strangers to each other because of the distance. Before this war, we fought each other many times. Of course, you were coerced by the Carthaginians and had to do it. But there is an old saying in the East called 'no fight, no acquaintance', and you were forced to get involved in this war. In the war, you and I finally came together. In the absence of cooperation in the past, you unconditionally trusted us, took great risks, and successfully executed the plan in today's battle, making our victory come true. Easier and less casualties! On behalf of all the soldiers of Dionia, I thank you!

And I assure you in the name of Hades,

The promises made to you before will not change! Dionia wants to be a long-term ally with Numibia, and we've done this together! "

After listening to these words, the Numibian leaders finally felt relieved. They stood up excitedly holding their wine glasses, and said with a trembling voice: "Okay! Finish.

Davos then picked up another glass of wine and said seriously: "Although we have won a big victory this time, Carthage is still a powerful city-state, neither our Dionia nor your Numibia need it. Let us relax our vigilance, and we should continue to strengthen cooperation, continue to launch attacks, and completely defeat the Carthaginians, in order to ensure the safety of Dionia, and to prevent the freedom of the Numibians from being taken away! , we've done this!"

Everyone at the meeting raised their glasses and drank them all.

Davos couldn't help but burp, wiped the foam from his mouth, looked around at everyone, and said with a smile: "Today is a day of great joy, I wanted to toast you a few more glasses of wine, but I was afraid of your criticism. I said, 'I've been fighting for a day, I'm starving, how can I be full by drinking alone'. So next time you open to eat, due to the rush of time and limited conditions, the dishes are not very rich, but there is Carthage Give us military rations transportation, we have no limit tonight!"

The generals understood the ridicule in Davos' words and laughed.

Henepolis was worried that the Numibians would not understand when translating, and even added his own explanation to make the Numibians laugh.

In order to make the Numibians relax, Dave told Henipolis in advance: Do not add water when preparing wine.

Therefore, the Turiyi wine is very sweet and delicious in the mouth, but after drinking the three glasses of wine on an empty stomach, many people are already a little drunk, and the previous restraint and tension are gradually forgotten, plus they are indeed hungry, a One grabbed the food on the table and ate and drank.

There was a sound of chewing in the yard, and the atmosphere began to warm up.

Although Davers was also a little hungry, he was over 40 years old and paid more and more attention to maintaining his body in recent years, and he has been chewing slowly.

After a while, one of the Numibians stood up, emboldened by the wine, and said aloud in Carthaginian language: "Respect... The Numibians can regain their independence! But... but, we have completely betrayed the Carthaginians, they must have hated us very much, and the greedy Carthaginians have always coveted our land, even if this We chose to retreat because of a defeat, but our tribes in Numibia are still very weak compared to Carthage. When Carthage recovers from the defeat, they will definitely retaliate against us. At that time, Dai What else can Onia do for us?"

His words resonated with some Numibian chiefs, who responded.

After listening to Henepolis' translation, Davos did not answer immediately, but instead asked: "Are you from East Numibia or West Numibia?"

"I am from the Sarmu tribe of Eastern Numibia, and I am Krieg, the son of the chief."

Davos nodded. This time he asked Henepolis and Thormid to invite the Numibians to the banquet, either the tribal leaders of West Numibia or the tribes of East Numibia. Influential figures.

Davos is very clear in his heart: Compared with the Western Numibians, Carthage has strict control over Eastern Numibia, and the oppression is deeper, which also makes the Eastern Numibians very afraid of Carthage. The Western Numibians were more active when they sent spies deep into the Carthaginian camp in an attempt to unite the Numibians, who were the first to rebel today, while the Eastern Numibians, although more numerous, were more active. The response was not too much. Of course, it was also related to their different formations in the Carthaginian army. In the end, they also saw that the main force of the Carthaginian army, the Iberian army, was completely defeated, and the Dionysian legionnaires were killed. When he got to the front, he launched a rebellion in a hurry, more like a helpless move to save himself.

Davers understands this, he said with a gentle expression: "Through this cooperation, we believe that we already know each other's sincerity, and we have a common enemy, so why don't we continue this cooperation? Let Dionia and Numibia become a long-term alliance?! Whether it is a year or 5 years later, as long as another force dares to attack one of our two sides, the other party will take the initiative to attack that force. Declare war, and both sides will work together to defeat the enemy, what do you think?"

"Build a long-term alliance?!" Krieger thought for a while and smiled relieved: "This is a good suggestion! In this way, we have nothing to worry about!"

"It's good to be a long-term ally! I agree!"

"agree!"

"When did we form an alliance?!"

...

Many Numibians agreed with excitement.

At this time, another East Numibian stood up and asked a question: "Dear King Dionia, we East Numibians live in the interior of Africa, and the coast is surrounded by Carthage and its Phoenicians. The Christian League is in control, and you Dionia are far away in Italy and Sicily. Once the Carthaginian army invades our territory, we will not be able to tell you the news in time, and by the time you know, I am afraid it will already be With so many tribes captured and destroyed by Carthage, it seems that being an ally doesn't help."

The excitement on the faces of the Numibians was quickly fading, especially the East Numibians. The words of this compatriot suddenly realized that an alliance with Dionia did not seem to relieve the danger they faced. .

Davos laughed and said loudly: "You don't have to worry, after Dionysius eliminated the Carthaginian army in Sicily, he was not going to stop there. We are also going to log in Africa and attack Phoenicia in Carthage. Allied nations, and eventually attacked the city of Carthage.

Only after the complete defeat of Carthage will this greedy city-state sign an agreement to return your lands and free your compatriots enslaved by them.

At the same time, we Dionia will also build several towns on the coast of Africa, so that we can monitor the Carthaginians close by, strengthen our ties with you, and at the same time trade with you fairly, Improve your life..."

Having said that, Davos found that these Numidians were staring at him with piercing eyes, and excited expressions appeared on their faces again.

The surrounding generals of Dionia were all surprised. After all, the plan in Davos' mind was not disclosed to others except that Heripolis was partially informed. However, people like Amintas, Matonis, etc. also have bright eyes, because it means that even if the war in Sicily ends, the war will continue, and they have more opportunities to make contributions.

Davos immediately said: "Of course, our Dionysian army is completely unfamiliar with Africa, and we also need your full assistance from Numibia to work together and finally force the Carthaginians to surrender!"
