Chapter 126 Preparations Before the War (1)

So Kunogolata could only say with a wry smile: "It's just a habit before, but you really need to pay attention in the future!"

Cornelus nodded sympathetically.

At this moment, Marigi, the business officer, and Plesinas, the priest in charge of the Temple of Hades, came towards them. Compared to those before, both of them were smiling.

Kunogolata has always suspected that "Davos became king" was caused by the two of them at the beginning.

Is it time to start talking about meritorious deeds? He thought with disgust in his heart, and couldn't help but stepped forward and stabbed: "When the people of the whole alliance are worried about national security, the two of you are in a good mood."

Marighi's smile did not change, he looked at Kunogolata playfully, lowered his voice, and pretended to be mysterious: "Of course I am in a good mood, because His Majesty Davos promised me..."

He deliberately prolonged his voice, causing Kunogorata to ask subconsciously, "What is the promise?"

Marigui immediately said loudly: "Your Majesty promised me that the blockade of the Syracuse fleet on the port of Turii will soon be broken, and trade in the port of Turii will be resumed!  … What else do you think it will be? Yes? Lord Kunogorata."

Kunogolata coughed twice, and was about to change the subject to cover up the embarrassment on his face. Cornerus had already exclaimed: "Davos... His Majesty Davos is going to launch a campaign against the Syracuses. naval battle?!"

"Of course! Early tomorrow morning, the Temple of Hades will divination and pray for this battle!" Plesinas responded contentedly.

Kunogolata and Cornerus looked at each other with surprise.

"Come on, His Majesty the King is waiting to announce the news to you!" Mariji said with a smile.

The two didn't have time to say goodbye and hurried forward.

"See, some people clearly know that the political situation of the alliance has changed, but they still don't want to admit it. It's really sad!" Mariji sneered.

Plessinas has always felt guilty about Kunogolata, so he did not want to continue to dwell on this topic, but asked: "Just now, His Majesty talked about how to expand the influence of Hades and enhance the prestige of the king. Suggestion, there are some things that I have not fully understood. Sir Mariji, you are more familiar with Persia, can you tell me how the Persian royal family preached their supreme god Ahura Maz in the lands of the aliens What about Da?"

Marigi stroked the beard of his jaw,

With a complacent expression, he said playfully: "You are asking the right person. I know the Persian royal family very well. You must know that when Cyrus established a great empire, he had no faith in aliens. any interference, since he himself did not vigorously promote the great gods of Persia, he was busy fighting until Darius became king, although he claimed to have the sacred blood of Cyrus, and also married Cyrus's daughter, but he felt that the throne he inherited from the great King Cyrus still lacked convincing power to the great Persian patriarchs. At this time, he thought of the god Ahura Mazda, whom the Persians had always believed in... "

…………………………

Just when Marigi was talking about Persian religion to Plessinas, Kunogolata and the others ran into the first legion commander Antonios and the second legion commander who had just come out of the military camp. Amintas, the former army commander - the current military officer Kapus (the power of the former military officer was divided into three by Davos, each of which was in charge of different aspects and did not interfere with each other. In fact, in the eyes of the soldiers, they also It does not seem to be an obvious difference in price, but in order to facilitate management, Davers positioned the military officer in charge of personnel appointments at a higher level so that he could coordinate the affairs of the military department.), Admiral Sekelian.

These four now represent all of Dionia's military forces in Turii, and they appear here together. It seems that Davos really has a big military action soon! Kunogolata and Cornerus looked at each other.

The four people were in a hurry, and they simply said hello to the two of them, and hurried to complete the task that Davers explained.

"Lord Caps, you have to quickly return the 3,000 sailors who were transferred to me, otherwise the joint training will not go smoothly for a while!" Sekelian urged.

"Don't worry, they're all intact! I'm going to South City right now to bring the sailors stationed there back to the Craty Naval Base." Capps comforted him.

Cykrian relaxed a little.

"Caps, you said... um, Your Majesty asked you to go to the port to assemble another 7,000 people, and they must be young adults who have undergone our military training for more than one year. Are there so many free people in the port who meet this condition?" Antonio asked concernedly.

"There shouldn't be so many, but you can go to Amendolara and Bisinia to see. It's not enough. You can also recruit people in the transportation brigade responsible for logistics..." Capps obviously considered this issue.

"Now there are enemies everywhere in the alliance, the army is also divided everywhere, the troops are used to the extreme, and the territory is very empty! The deadlock must be broken as soon as possible, and the most important issue is to regroup the troops!" Antonios worried said.

"The crux of the problem is Davos... His Majesty must first fight Syracuse at sea. Isn't this decisive battle too risky?!" The order is still a bit contradictory: "The Syracuse Navy has fought against Carthage for so many years. It can be said that the naval warfare experience is much more than ours! Our fleet has just been formed, and we have never really fought once. With a wooden bridge on this ship, we dare to fight with the Syracuses, and let our soldiers go to the warship... um, in case... in case of failure, they will have no chance to escape. No, this is Dionia's most elite unit!"

"Lord Amintas, what do you mean there is just an extra wooden bridge on the ship! You don't know how much this addition will change the Navy's tactics!" When Sekelian heard this, he immediately said dissatisfiedly: " Even if you have rich combat experience, it's only on land, you don't know anything about naval combat, so please don't talk nonsense!"

Amintas got angry when he heard it: "How dare you get angry with me! You don't even look at what you have achieved, and what qualifications do you have to stand here and talk about naval battles with me!"

"Tomorrow! I will show you a victory!" Sekelian responded without showing weakness.

"Don't be noisy!" Antonios shouted loudly, he glared at Sekelian, he didn't like this young man's arrogant tone, but he was now the commander-in-chief of Davos: "When is it, still If you are in the mood to quarrel, let the soldiers see a joke! You quickly gather your troops and rush to the naval base. After a while, His Majesty arrives and sees that we have not started training yet, I am afraid everyone will be trained!"

Amintas looked around at the soldiers who were looking at them curiously, and suppressed the anger in his chest: "Young man, don't just quarrel, let's talk about the record!"

"You'll see it tomorrow!" Cykrian said angrily, then turned around and strode forward. He suddenly realized that he was quarreling with Amyntas in the army's barracks. In case of conflict, it would be too unfavorable to himself. , or hurry back to the naval base, where you have the final say.

"Antonios, Amintas, you don't have to worry, follow Davos... His Majesty the King has been fighting for so many years, and you still don't understand his command style! Without great certainty, how could he be with Syracuse at sea? Let's fight!" Capps reminded them both.

"But that's all on land. No one has ever fought at sea, although we've been training with the navy. After all, the new tactics mentioned by Sekelian have not been tested in actual combat. At sea, when encountering a huge fleet of enemy ships, will this tactic work?! Our first and second legionnaires... The most important thing is that even His Majesty himself will board the warship, in case——" Antonio When Si said this, he stopped, and he didn't dare to think about the consequences of his defeat.

His worries also infected other generals.

"Okay, don't worry, His Majesty has Hades' blessing, nothing will happen! Let's hurry up and execute his orders." Caps said reluctantly.

…………………………

While the generals were arguing, Davos spoke to the elders of Bruty, Basilipi and Sedorum, in the tent.

"The two adults came just in time, and I was about to send someone to invite you." Davos smiled and asked them to sit down.

"Your Majesty, Sedorum and I are here to plead guilty!" Bachilipi stood up and said with an uneasy look: "Petaru and the others had some weird behaviors before the rebellion, but we didn't pay attention, and as a result... ...As a result, they successfully escaped back to Bruti, bewitching the people to rebel..."

"However, Your Majesty, Bachilippi and I can assure you that the rebels are only a very small number of Brutians, and the vast majority of them are loyal to the Alliance! There will never be any major events in the Bruti region. Turmoil and chaos!" Sedorum took the words of Bachilippi and solemnly promised Davos.

"Yes, we can swear to Amara!" Bajilipi emphasized again.

Davos stared deeply at the two elders with slightly haggard expressions. Obviously, the rebellion of Petaru and other Bruty elders had put them under enormous pressure. After a while, Davos withdrew his gaze and said sincerely: "Don't worry, although Petaru's rebellion has caused people in other cities to have some suspicions about the people of Bruti, I think the elders of the Senate, including me. , are very clear!

"Lord Bachilippi, the First Brigade of the Fifth Army, composed of citizens of Bisinia, took the initiative to stay behind to stop the enemy in order to cover the retreat of the large troops during the battle of the Ramato River. In the end, they were either killed or captured. It has ensured that most of the soldiers of the 4th and 5th legions can retreat smoothly. So far, the captain of the 1st brigade, the elder of the Senate, Brim and some of the Vicinian soldiers are still imprisoned in the camp of Syracuse. Such a hero Neither is Dionia's most loyal citizen, who else could be!"

After listening to Davos's words, Basilipi burst into tears, not only because of the great sacrifices the Bissinians had made in this war and the grievances that Davos finally understood, but also because he was worried about those who became prisoners. safety of the tribe.
