Chapter 126 Sedorum

After Davos calmed down his emotions, he asked again, "Caps, is the First Army in charge of taking care of Bruty's captives at night?"

"Yes."

"Make them as comfortable as possible without letting them escape."

Capps hesitated, then said, "I'll do my best."

"You have to know that although they were enemies before, after this battle... well... it's certain that the Brutians will become their own people soon. In order to make this transition process smoother and not increase hatred, we Efforts must be made." Davers patiently explained to Capps and the others that war has always been a continuation of politics, and Davos's position determines that he must look farther and consider more comprehensively.

Triphias and Gorkis, who were on the side, glanced at each other. The continued growth of the Dionysian Alliance should be a good thing for Heraclea and Castron.

"After a while, I might send someone to help you appease these Brutus captives. However, I'm not sure if he is willing to help?" Davers rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully.

Capps wondered who Davos was talking about, but he prudently didn't ask.

"How is the situation in the medical camp?" Davers thought of another question.

"There are too many wounded! Stacey Cordas and the others are so busy that they have no time to rest. Now it is Epithenes and the others who send light infantry and freemen to help the medical battalion carry the wounded..." Antonios said worriedly.

"That means, those Bruti wounded soldiers are left alone?!" Davos' eyes widened, he immediately thought of the seriousness of the problem: "Well...Antonios, you go to Stacey Corda immediately Si, it is my order, he will send one or two doctors no matter what... At the same time, let the First Army draw a thousand infantry to assist, and first perform simple debridement, bandaging and other trauma on Bruti's wounded soldiers. deal with."

"Okay." Antonios quickly turned and left.

"And... Thormid, I'll write two letters right away. You ask the messengers to take the letter and return to Turii as soon as possible, and give it to Helps and Mersis. I want them to send as much as possible. More doctors, nurses, more medicines, medical supplies and food..."

After the generals completed their assigned tasks, Davos had time to face Triphias and Gorkis alone: ​​"My two adults, I'm so sorry! There will be so many things that will keep you waiting."

"It's nothing." Triphias praised earnestly: "It gave me a chance to see the extraordinary management ability of the Dionysian Archon! And I really didn't expect that there would be a battle after a battle. There are so many affairs to deal with, the medical treatment of the wounded, the treatment of prisoners, the construction of camps, the arrangement of sentries... I really learned a lot of military knowledge."

Triphias said these words from the bottom of his heart, and Gorkis next to him felt the same. Indeed, most of the battles in the Greek city-states of this era were near the territory of the alliance, and the logistics requirements were not high, so they did not pay much attention to it. Only strong states such as Athens, Sparta, and Syracuse, because of the need for long-term Time to fight externally, the logistics requirements of the army will be higher, but even so, there will be occasions when soldiers are in trouble with wages and food shortages. Davos felt that the logistics of Dionia's army were still relatively rough and not perfect, but in the eyes of Triphias and the others, it was already a very complicated arrangement.

Therefore, Davos just smiled and said: "Thanks to the full support of Heraclea and Castellon for this battle! With this victory, I believe that the war with Bruti will end soon, to At that time, the clerk of our baggage battalion will carefully count the loot obtained and distribute it to you in proportion.”

Duke Castellon had cooperated with Dionia two or three times, and Gorkis was very assured of Dionia's credit.

Heraclea is richer, and Triphias has little interest in loot, and of course it is not in vain for citizens to get it.

Don't go back and complain. He is more concerned about another thing: "Lord Davos, I also have a request."

"Please speak."

"Can Dionia's team officers use your fighting methods to help train the citizens of Heraclea." Triphias was a little embarrassed, and explained: "Because during the battle, I found that Dai Oria's fighting style is very different from that of us Heraclea and Castellon, and the differences in this battle greatly affect the cooperation between the various units, so..." In fact, at the beginning of this battle , it was the 3,000 Dionian reserves who withstood the Brutian charge and acted as the mainstay of the right flank in the ensuing battle. The reserve team is still like this, the strength of the Dionian Legion can be imagined, and this is the reason why Triphias made up his mind and made a request.

Davos was surprised on the surface, but he was overjoyed: Finally, an allied city-state made such a request!

He pretended hesitantly and asked, "Does the Senate of Heraclea agree with this approach?"

"I'll let them agree!" Triphias said firmly.

"In this case, when the war with Bruti is over, I will ask the military officer Felixius to discuss training with you." Davos said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Lord Triphias, but wearing Onia's military training is very strict, you have to prepare the citizens of Heraclea in advance."

With Heraclea as an example, Gorkis also made the same request to Daves.

After sending Triphias and Gorkis away, although Davos felt very tired, he couldn't rest, because there was someone he had to meet: "Go and get the Blue that Ryders caught. Bring the big man you mentioned."

……………………

Sedorum regretted that he had not prayed to the goddess Amala seriously before he set off for the expedition, so unfortunately he stumbled and fell off his horse on the way to escape, and then his personal guards were scattered by the swarming rout soldiers. It was easy to struggle from under the wounded horse, and as a result, he fell behind because he was different from the clothes of ordinary Brutian warriors, and became the target of the pursuing Dionian cavalry.

After becoming a prisoner, he didn't hide it and said his name directly.

Now, with his hands tied behind his back, he was escorted by the Dionysian soldiers and walked forward. From a distance, he saw a golden military flag erected on the grassy slope. Hundreds of soldiers were standing in two rows neatly, and the military flag was sitting One person, that should be Davos, the Archon of Dionia.

Sedorum thought to himself, his footsteps speeding up unconsciously.

When they approached, the two looked at each other face to face. Sedorum was amazed at the youth of Davos, while Davos was amazed at the oldness of Sedorum. As far as he knew, the big leader of Vig City was not yet full. 50 years old.

Davers said first: "Untie him."

Sedorum rubbed his wrist reddened by the rope and took another step forward.

Davers sat still.

Sedorum raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you afraid that I will attack you?"

Davos smiled slightly: "You can speak Greek and save me the trouble of looking for an interpreter. I don't want to look up at others, so you can sit down."

His voice was not loud, but he had an irresistible power.

Sedorum hesitated for a moment, then sat down reluctantly.

Martius, who was behind Davos, was slightly relieved.

"Answer your question just now." Davos said unhurriedly: "First, I have a brave escort, it is difficult for you to succeed; second, even if you succeed, the plight of the Brutians is not only impossible resolved, and the angry Dionian soldiers will bring unimaginable punishment to the people of this land!"

Sedorum snorted: "Aren't the Dionians now occupying our land, slaughtering our people, and looting our property! If I can beat the leader who started the war, at least I can. Let the Brutians be happy for a while!"

"Are the Brutians the victims?" Davos said sternly: "No! The Brutians have never stopped attacking and looting the Greek city-states for decades. There are countless Greek families who have been ruined by you. Now, we Greeks have finally come to take revenge, but you feel wronged, this is really a joke!"

"You Greeks are outsiders who have invaded our land. We... of course we want to take it back!" Sedorum retorted not to be outdone.

"As far as I know, you Brutians originally lived in the central part of Italy, and only moved here more than 200 years ago, drove away the original inhabitants of this land, settled down, and now actually claim to be the masters of the land in southern Italy, Is this ignorance? Or arrogance?" Davos sneered.

"You are talking nonsense!" Sedorum shouted in exasperation.

"It seems that you really don't know. Fortunately, the Greeks have written and recorded records of major events that have happened here for hundreds of years. The scholars of Turii have collected records from other city-states. If one day you go to Turui City , you can see detailed historical records about the Bruti people."

Davos really asked Ancitanos for detailed advice about the Bruti people, so Sedorum seemed a little discouraged when he saw Davos' serious face, and simply said: "What are you going to do with us? ?"

"Do you mean the captive Brutus, or what you call the Brutus Alliance?"

"Of course we were unfortunately captured." Sedorum said unto be outdone: "Although we have lost the battle, as long as Pian Lun and the others defend the city with all their strength, no matter how many soldiers you have, it will be difficult to break through the strong Kosen. If you build a big city, you can only retreat when you run out of food."

"Don't worry, we will easily break through Cosenza City!" Davos said confidently.
