Chapter 270 The Return of Satnicum

One of the Roman soldiers had a low fever before departure, but he concealed it and did not say it, because any soldier who had a fever in the past two days would be transferred from the original team, and then disappeared. As a result, after he entered the Dionysian military camp, he was very nervous. In addition, he kept standing still, and his body was rapidly exhausted. He suddenly began to vomit, and then collapsed to the ground. When other Roman soldiers saw this, it was like seeing a ghost. Yes, they were frightened and evaded. Although Aulus, Mejus and others took some measures in the city to slow down the spread of the plague and forbid the soldiers to spread rumors and prevent chaos, the soldiers who fell in the past two days More, the soldiers have heard more or less.

The unusual behavior of the Roman soldiers immediately attracted the attention of the Dionysian team officer. Besides, Dionia was also obliged to treat the collapsed Roman soldiers, so he called a doctor.

The doctor who was called was none other than Kritos, who was once praised by Davos at the Great Greek Medical Forum and who was good at research. For the past two years, he was following Hippokra, who stayed in Turii and specialized in medicine. To study at the bottom, you must know that Hippocrates has a very deep research on the plague, and Kritos naturally has a deep accumulation of medical knowledge in this area, just because the Dionysian Kingdom has not yet had a plague. So he has not yet had the opportunity to put the theory into practice.

After carefully checking the physical condition and vomit of the fallen soldiers, Kritos became suspicious. Excited, he immediately called for Stacey Cordas to confirm. The two exchanged opinions at the scene, and finally Decided to report to Davos immediately.

When Ctisus at the scene learned of the situation, he was taken aback. He wanted to immediately lead people to arrest these Roman soldiers for interrogation, but considering that doing so would cause serious diplomatic incidents, he was prudent. The Roman soldiers were isolated, and they rushed to the tent with Stacey Cordas.

As a result, Davos suddenly opened his mouth and swindled, causing Olus to leak the filling.

Despite his subsequent denials, Davos threatened him that if Aulus did not tell the truth, Dionysus would not accept the surrender of the defenders of Satnicum, leaving them to be destroyed by the plague within the city.

Under the pressure, Olus had to admit: Satnecum may have been attacked by the plague.

But he then argued: This is just the beginning, the situation is not serious, so they do not care too much.

Davos told him in a stern tone: The kingdom of Dionia has developed medical skills and has a lot of experience in treating plagues, but everyone in the city of Satnecum must fully follow the instructions of Doctor Dionia. rescued.

In the end, the conspiracy was revealed, and Aulus chose to surrender (because there were many members of the Comeneneus clan in the garrison), and obediently restarted the process with Henipolis, Tolmid, and the medical chief Staceco. Das talks about saving the defenders after surrendering.

Afterwards, Aulus took this agreement in frustration and returned to the city to discuss with Mejus and others.

After Oulus left, Davos immediately announced that the entire Dionysian camp was on alert. Let Stacey Cordas lead the doctors in the entire camp to check the physical condition of all the soldiers in the camp in detail, focusing on the Roman soldiers who had sneaked out of the city before, and to isolate them. At the same time, the engineering battalion led the soldiers to boil a large amount of quicklime and re-sprinkled it around the camp; the cargo battalion had to make countless thick linen strips, so that the soldiers had to cover their mouths and noses with it and wear it all day; all competitions and training immediately Stop, the soldiers are not allowed to gather together, try to wear tents during the day; in addition, vigorously eliminate the rats in the camp and drive away mosquitoes...

In fact, some measures

The Dionysian army has always followed it strictly, and this time it's just a re-emphasis.

Davos also ordered that the legionnaires in the camp take turns to build three simple and smaller camps farther away from the camp.

Davos also asked the officers of each legion to tell the soldiers frankly: there is a plague in the city of Satnicum, and the defenders will surrender. They don't have to be afraid, the doctors have made careful preparations, and His Majesty also prayed to Hades and was blessed.

Since the founding of Dionia, because Davos has always attached great importance to the medical development of the kingdom, and he also knew that the plague is actually an acute infectious disease through the hygiene knowledge of the previous life, as long as the environment is kept clean and hygienic, the incidence of disease can be reduced as much as possible. Sources, such as mice, mosquitoes, corpses, should be disinfected in time for some suspicious places. Lime is a cheap and effective disinfection material... Therefore, in this era of frequent plagues, it can be completely reduced in the kingdom. The outbreak of the plague.

It is precisely because he has always insisted on teaching this knowledge to doctors in the kingdom, and strongly promoted it in the kingdom as a king, coupled with the addition of Hippocrates, who had rich experience in treating plagues in the past few years, that made Dai. There has never been a plague in the kingdom of Onia. Even during the drought last year, due to the attention of the entire kingdom, the people escaped the custom of "a great plague must be followed by a great plague".

Therefore, at this time, most of the soldiers in the camp had only heard of the terrible plague, but had not experienced it in person. In addition, the descendants of Hades, King Davos's personal assurance, they did not feel panic. The order of the entire camp is fairly stable.

A day later, the garrison of Satnicum formally surrendered to Dionia, and the Roman dictator Camillous died of illness after announcing his surrender.

News of his death quickly spread throughout the city, and all the Roman soldiers and the inhabitants of Satnicum were in mourning.

When the city was opened, the body of Camillous was placed on a carriage and carried out first, followed by a line of Roman soldiers, who had sad faces and nervous expressions, and were not wearing armor or weapons, but All dressed up.

The Dionian soldiers were all in uniform, armed with shield guns, covering their mouths and noses with linen cloths, and lined up in two dense columns with their heads held high, extending from the city gate to the newly built camp, with a spacious thoroughfare in the middle.

The Roman soldiers marched along this road, but were stopped at the end.

Davos led the generals to the carriage.

Davos looked at the withered-faced remains of Camelus lying flat in the carriage, and he solemnly bowed three times to the father of Rome in the past, and the generals and ministers behind him naturally followed suit.

The originally disturbed Roman soldiers saw this scene. Although they did not understand the meaning of this action, they could also deeply feel the respect of the kings and ministers of Dionia for Camillous, so they became quiet one after another.

At this time, Davos, who was also covered in linen, turned to face the generals and officials of Dionia, pulled down his mask, and said in a loud voice, "Camillous, a Roman citizen, has been participating in the Roman cooperation since he was an adult. The wars of the surrounding city-states, and they have made many achievements in battles. More than 20 years ago, the Romans grew in strength and turned to attack their most important enemy - Weiai. When other Roman generals were helpless to attack Weiai city, The Roman Senate appointed Camillous as its commander-in-chief, and after careful planning, he finally captured the city of Victoria, which was no smaller than Rome.

However, his achievements were envied by some Roman citizens, so some people accused him of corruption and blasphemy at the Citizens Assembly. As a result, the people who did not know the truth actually passed the proposal. According to Roman law, if convicted, he will Being expelled, Camelus was angry at the result, but he accepted the punishment, left Rome, and settled in the nearby Latin city-state.

More than ten years ago, the Celts invaded the south and occupied Rome. Camelus was worried about his mother country and called on the people of Ladium to rise up against the Celts' aggression. In the battle with the Celts, he gradually organized a large army and finally repelled the Celts.

When the Romans gave Camelos great glory for his recovery of Rome, he was thinking about how the Romans could defeat the mighty Celts in subsequent battles, so he did not take the credit, but chose A hard road, he wanted to reform centuries-old military traditions and create a new military system that would make the Roman army stronger and more effective.

In the end, he succeeded. The Roman army trained by the reformed Roman military system has won many victories in wars with surrounding forces, and every time Rome encountered difficulties and dangers, the people first thought of Camelus, and Kamilus. Regardless of his aging body, Mulhouse repeatedly responded to the call of the Senate, and led Roman citizens to conquer the east and west. . if--"

Davos looked at the bright red Roman flag on the carriage, and said with emotion: "If there is no our kingdom of Dionia in the land of Italy, perhaps Rome, a Latin city-state fed by the Tiber River, is in Camelus. Armed with the new military system established, it will continue to be strong, and even become the hegemon of Italy, the hegemon of the Western Mediterranean..."

The generals Amyntas, Matonis, Lizaru and other generals behind Davos were slightly dissatisfied when they heard this, but on this occasion, how dare they dare to interrupt.

But Aulus, who was at the back of the carriage, was stunned when he heard this. He did not expect King Dionia to be so optimistic about Rome, and he seemed to suddenly understand: why King Dionia dared to ignore Carthage Attack, personally lead a large army to attack Rome, which has no direct conflict of interest with the Kingdom of Dionia.

But will Roma really have as good a prospect as he says? Oulus was fascinated, but he couldn't help sighing heavily when he recalled the current situation.
