Chapter 212 Attacking Lola

At dusk, the Dionysian coalition forces dug trenches, cleared the weeds and trees in the camp area, and initially built earthen fortresses... The entire coalition camp was in an arc-shaped ellipse, with Potentia at both ends. The army and Abenirum camp were further north, and the Dionysian army camp was to the southwest, because the line of hills to the east was not completely continuous, it had some low hills, which Alexis considered To give more support to the weaker Abenerum, extend the camp to the break of the hill on the east side (behind the side of the Abenerum camp), so as to avoid being cut off by the hill. Camp Benirum's connection to the main force made it a possible focal point for enemy raids.

At this time, the main force of the Samone coalition army was bloated (carrying a lot of looted slaves and property), and the harassment of the Campania army was worthy of Dakautim.

During the night, Leskuk orchestrated a night raid on the Dionian coalition camp, primarily targeting the Potentians.

Although the cautious Alexis had warned Poulet in advance, the Beneventoum night raids caused some confusion among the inexperienced Potentian warriors.

Afterwards, Alexis, who got the news, immediately sent reinforcements.

Because of his own lack of strength, Leskuk was unable to further expand some of the advantages he had gained. Before the enemy reinforcements arrived, he let the soldiers burn down some tents and then quickly retreated.

………………………………

Also on this day, Zantiparis led half of the reserve army, set off from the port of Enona, took a fleet, bypassed the Sorrento Peninsula, landed on the coast near Pompeii without any obstruction, and then successfully recovered. The looted city of Pompeii.

Then, they sent troops to easily recapture the city of Oplontis, which was also empty and not far from Pompey.

After lunch, Zantiparis left 200 soldiers stationed in each of the two cities, and then led 3,600 soldiers, marching eastward, into the territory of Nakonia, with some residents of the town of Baparia and priests. (The inhabitants of this town burned down by Segovani have had close ties with the Nakonians for many years, many of whom can speak the Samonite language) and began to shout in Samonite, "For Quinn Duke. Revenge, drive out the Kautim, and return my free Nakonia..." and other slogans that resonated with the original Nakonia tribes. Especially when they saw the Hades priests and Baparian residents who were familiar with them in the team, they immediately became very fond of the team. Therefore, the army of Zantiparis was supported and welcomed by many Nakonian people. There were people joining the team on the road.

After Segovani trapped Quinduk and occupied the Nakonian territory, he was busy cooperating with other tribes and attacking the Campania Alliance. , forcing the tribes to submit,

Let them send almost all the young and middle-aged people, and make them attack the Campania Alliance, while leaving 500 soldiers from Cautem to garrison the city of Nakonia.

As for the next forcibly relocating several large tribes of Nakonia to other areas, and then relocating several tribes from Kautim to Nakonia, occupying the vacant land... and many more to completely control Nakonia The measures in this area have not yet been implemented due to the rush of time, but the tribes of Nakonia have already felt the crisis of survival, especially the brutal behavior of the Kautim warriors in the city, which is giving birth to Nakonia every day. The anger in the hearts of the people of Konya.

When the warriors of Kautim stood at the front of the city, shocked by the huge line of enemies below the city (half of them were people from various tribes of Nakonia, Zantiparis placed them at the back of the line, so the city was The soldiers in the city could not see clearly), and the people in the city rejoiced at the arrival of reinforcements, and at the same time began to take action. They set fire to the temporary camp of the Kautim warriors in the city while the Kautim warriors were all on the defensive.

Seeing the fire burning in the camp, the Cauteim warriors were even more panicked. How could they not know that the inside of Nakonia was as dangerous as the outside, and their homeland was at Cauteum, and they had no determination to do so? They wanted to swear to defend this town that had nothing to do with them, so when they saw that the situation was not good, they immediately went down to the city and wanted to escape from the east gate where there were no enemies outside the city. Unexpectedly, javelins were fired from time to time in the houses on both sides of the street, killing and injuring the fleeing fighters, and on the street ahead, the people in the city blocked the road with wood, mud bricks, stones... which caused chaos for the fleeing team.

After the Kautim warriors left the city, the people in the city quickly opened the unguarded west gate. Zantiparis led the soldiers to enter, and under the guidance of the people in the city, they launched a pursuit of the enemy. .

The Cautem warriors were devastated, and with the exception of a few who escaped from the city, most of the warriors were either killed or captured.

Since the leaders of the various tribes of Nakonia are under the control of Segovani, the Nakonian people who got rid of Segovani's control quickly elected several senior tribal elders who are highly respected, along with the Dionysian army. Negotiate.

And Zantiparis also took the initiative to withdraw the army from the city of Nakonia as a sign of sincerity.

Soon, the two sides reached a simple agreement: the Dionysian army will do its best to ensure the security of Nakonia's territory, but not to send troops to the city of Nakonia; the tribes of Nakonia allow Dionysian transport The procession of the baggage crosses the territory to Abenirum and tries to help; Dionysius will send priests of Hades to Nakonia as soon as possible to preside over sacred affairs and repair the temple of Hades as soon as possible; Onia will do her best to help the Nakonian warriors coerced by Segovani to return to their homes, and Nakonia will also send people to follow the Dionian army to persuade the Nakonian warriors to flee...

The agreement was reached, and Zantiparis breathed a sigh of relief, because there are two things in this agreement that are very important to the Dionian coalition forces that are fighting at this moment: one is the problem of food transportation, because if the food is transported by sea, to Poland Sedonia, then transported through the rugged mountain road to Kopsa, then through the mountain road to Abenerum, and finally transported to the current Dionian coalition camp in Beneventoum, which was time-consuming and time-consuming. And if you go by sea to Pompeii, then pass through the territory of Nakonia, and reach Abenerum by mountain road (there is a continuous kilometer of mountains between Nakonia and Abenerum, the two places There are only a few narrow mountain roads that are connected, but the distance is not too far, which also prevents the Samona coalition from crossing the mountains and intercepting the food route), so that the whole journey is almost reduced by half, so when Kopsa broke up , Alexis and Zantiparis have already negotiated a plan, and the recovery of Nakonia is the top priority.

The other was to enter into a friendly agreement with the Nakonians, and with their help, it was natural that the Nakonian warriors in the Samona coalition should flee their army and weaken their strength.

But what Zantiparis did not expect was that the Nakonians would actively propose to welcome back Hades priests, perhaps because Segovani persecuted Hades believers in Nakonia territory, but instead It has inspired the rebellious psychology of the Nakonia people, and in this chaotic time, the arrival of Hades priests can help the Nakonia people in difficulties in many aspects such as healing, relief, comfort, etc., This is something that native deity priests such as Suwanee cannot do.

……………………………………

That night, when the soldiers fled back to Kautim, Segovani was taken aback. The army retreated, and Nakonia was likely to be attacked by the enemy, which he expected. But the fact that the southernmost lands of the Kautini tribe had been lost so quickly, he was appalled by the role and hostility of the Nakonians in it.

On the one hand, he blocked the news so that the Nakonian warriors would not know it; on the other hand, he sent 500 more warriors (including those who were defeated) to Lola and Cesara to the west, hoping that these two The city can become a barrier to the south of Kautim.

To be honest, he wasn't worried about the Campania army, but he was a little apprehensive about the Dionysians, even though they probably didn't have many soldiers.

……………………………………

The next day, the Dionian coalition continued to build the camp. With the lessons learned last night, the coalition soldiers worked harder, felling trees, building wooden fences, building outposts, and arranging deer villages...

And Leskok gradually adapted to the enemy's troops to suppress the city and the bombardment of ballistas, and sent soldiers out of the city to harass many times. The Dionian coalition forces, who had also gradually gained experience in this regard, took corresponding defensive measures, and paid a small number of casualties. After that, push it back.

In the afternoon, more than 10,000 Samone coalition soldiers finally entered the city of Beneventum.

On the same day, Zantiparis led 3,600 soldiers to leave the Nakonia territory and marched north. After two hours of marching, they approached the city of Lora. Here they joined 8,000 Campania Confederate soldiers from the west, bringing the total to 11,600.

There were only 1,500 Kautini warriors in Lola City, and of course they felt very nervous, so the four gates were closed, and the whole city was mobilized.

Feng shui turns. Two days ago, the Samonei tribe coalition forces swept the territory of the Campania Alliance. Only one city of Naples was left on the Campania plain and was surrounded by Samonei people. The cries of the Samonei warriors made countless The fleeing people trembled in Naples. But now the situation is reversed, the Campania army unites with the Dionians and surrounds the famous town of Lola in Cautini, and the soldiers are both excited and a little nervous.
