Sesta himself agreed and thanked Davos for his recommendation. The other elders also had no objection. I am afraid that the only objection was Antiques in Amendolara, and he had to continue to be the fire chief. Serve the people.
At the same time, Davos also made Asistus as Sesta's secretary, assisting Sesta in handling Niutum's affairs, implementing the policy against the Lucanians, and letting Bagule serve as Niutum. The special inspector of Utum, dealing with various disputes and conflicts in the city, coordinating the relationship between the Lucanians and the Greeks... and so on.
After capturing Niutum, the first thing Sesta did was to screen out the captives: the real Niutum people who had dominated the original position and their affiliates and families were all imprisoned first, and they were forced to join Niu. Tum's small tribe persuaded him to submit. He entrusted the task to Bagul.
The second thing is to free the slaves. There are slaves in Niutum, and there are quite a few, mainly from two sources: one is the Greeks, who were looted by the Lucanians, and most of them are Turians, because Niutum is close to Turi Iraq, every year will go east to harass. Especially after the great defeat of the Turii army last year, they went deep into the Subari plain with the Lukaria coalition and captured a lot of Turui people; followed by the Lukarians, who were mainly led by Grummentum. The tribes that were defeated by the tribal coalition and were unwilling to obey Niutum, these Lucanian slaves were handed over to Bagul and Asistes to deal with.
The Greek slaves were summoned by Sesta outside the city gates. Looking at these Greeks who were once well-fed and well-fed, but now skinny, and even the women are naked and dumbfounded... Sesta was greatly touched, and he said emotionally: "Greeks, you have suffered. Today Hades sent our Tua Alliance to rescue you and avenge you!"
After speaking, most of the slaves burst into tears.
Sesta gave an order, and the soldiers pressed Ram and the other nearly 700 prisoners naked in, and then gave them spears and sabres to Greek slaves. He said loudly: "Anyone who insults you, you can take revenge! "
Seeing that the situation was wrong, Asisters quickly stopped Sesta and said, "Sir, you can't do this, you are violating the order of the Senate!"
"So what!" Sesta pointed at the Greek slaves and said angrily: "Look at them! Any Greek who sees this will choose to do it like me! The consul had slaughtered in Turii before. General Crotone, tell the great Greeks that the Tua League is not to be messed with! Today I want to let the Lucanians know that the Greeks are not to be messed with!"
As he was speaking, a Greek male slave with uncontrollable hatred howled, with a spear in both hands, rushed up and stabbed a prisoner down.
With this example, other slaves rushed up to assassinate them, and the prisoners screamed in horror, knowing that disaster was coming, and began to try to resist. The soldiers who surrounded them knocked them down with their round shields, stifling their attempts, and then let the slaves slaughter them...
The killing continued to the end and could not continue because the remaining captives were desperately protected by Greek slave girls...
Sesta was surprised. Assistus rushed forward to inquire about the situation. After returning, he told Sesta with a somber expression: "These women either gave birth to children after being insulted by these captives, or they were still pregnant... Poor The Greek women!… It’s all because the Greek men are not up to their expectations and can’t protect them, which makes them fall into such a tragic situation!… Your lord, are you still going to kill?”
"Damn Lucanian!" Sesta scolded fiercely, then raised his hand and said coldly, "Stop!"
After the order was issued, there were still slaves reluctantly waving their spears, threatening to let the female slaves standing in front of the Lucanians go away, and the soldiers immediately went up to disarm them.
Sesta stepped forward, stepped on a corpse, and shouted to the Greek slaves: "Listen! The new law passed by the Tua Union stipulates, 'Anyone who used to be Turii and Amendola Latvian citizens or slaves of Turii and Amendolara (because in a Greek city-state, a woman of the city-state cannot be a citizen, but she belongs to the people of the city-state), will automatically become a citizen of the Tua Union and a Tua Union people! They are not slaves of Turii and Amendolara. If they are willing to stay in the Tua Union, they can apply to become a reserve citizen of the Tua Union after two years of living. After another three years, if they meet the requirements, they can become Official citizens!' Would you rather stay in Niutum or go back to Turiyi?"
Most male slaves expressed their desire to return to Turii, but most women hesitated: because the Greek city-states of this era had very strict requirements on women's chastity, not only before marriage, but especially after marriage, housewives could only stay In the house, one cannot enter or leave public places, and must manage the housework as diligently and frugally as bees. Even the design of the house takes into account the possibility of preventing the wife from cheating. Therefore, the bedrooms of traditional Greek couples are on the second floor, and the only stair opening is on At the door of the living room, both the master and the slaves can see the entry and exit of the housewife. In order to prevent the husband from being bored with his wife and lingering in the brothel for a long time, leading to the resentment of the wife who lives alone in the boudoir, some city-states even stipulate the number of times that citizens have sex. For example, Solon of Athens stipulated in the Athenian law he advocated: ' Intercourse three times a month is enough care for a chaste citizen wife. '
Now a large number of Greek women who have been slaves of different races for a long time have given birth to children, and some still have large stomachs... How will they be treated by their families and the outside world when they return to Turii? ! Every slave girl dares not think about it, face it...
At this moment, Asisters stood up and said aloud: "On the proposal of the life-long consul of the Tua Alliance, Lord Davos, and a law was passed in the Senate, 'Any Lucanian marrying Tua Union women who are wives will automatically become reserve citizens of the Tua Union, and will be converted into full citizens after two years, and enjoy the rights of the Union allotment and two years of tax exemption. Any Greek man who marries a Lucalia in the Tua Union Women who are wives and willing to become citizens of the Tua Union are automatically granted pre-citizenship and become full citizens after two years, with the same rights to allotments of the Union and two years of tax exemption."
"...Is this true?" The female slaves couldn't believe their ears, and someone asked boldly.
"Of course it's true! Couples who get married according to what they said before can immediately go to the city hall of Niutum... No, the big chief's residence to register!" Sesta said loudly with certainty.
These Greek slaves were like a rainy season, and they shed tears with excitement. They knew that as long as there was this law, as long as Niutum was always in the hands of the Tua League, they could live on this land with their heads held high. ! Lord Archon Davos is really a good person who thinks about them!
The Greek male slaves who were not citizens of the original Turii hesitated for a while, and then made a decision: compared with the long time it takes to become a full citizen in Turii, marrying a Lucalia woman can immediately enjoy many benefits, It seems more attractive!
However, Asistes could guess that the law would soon be announced in Turii and Amendolara, and it would be unknown how many freemen would come to Niutum to marry a Luna. Kania woman while robbing her head!
He looked at the execution ground where the corpses were piled up in hills and rivers of blood flowed, and he thought: At least the large number of widows in the city of Niutum will be taken care of.
… … … …
The bloody scene Sesta created outside the city gate shocked all the Lucanians in the city, and the bereaved family cried softly in fear.
Even in the evening, when Bagul entertained a group of familiar Lucanians such as Kesima and Uraza, they were still trembling.
"Sit down! Sit down! We are all old friends, all sit down!" Bagule subconsciously imitated the look and tone of Davos when he entertained him before, but the guests didn't seem so relaxed.
"Kesima, why haven't I seen Abinu?" Bagul glanced at the crowd and asked.
"Abinu... He had a quarrel with Udler's son Damaru, and they killed him!" Kesima said sadly.
"Damn Utrell! Damn these big tribes who oppressed us! Where is this Damaru now?!" Bagul roared angrily.
"He's dead! When he went to Turii last time, he died at the hands of the Greeks, just like his father Udre!" Uraza glanced at Asistes beside Bagule, gloating over the misfortune said.
"Hey, it's a pity that I can't avenge him personally! However, that's fine, Abinu can rest assured to serve the mountain god!" Bagul sighed and regained his calm.
At this time, someone among the guests said: "Udler, Ram and the others oppressed us, wouldn't the Greeks not oppress us?! Won't they slaughter us like they slaughtered Ram before?!"
"Yes! Yes! Today the Greeks killed more than 500 Lucanians who surrendered outside the city!"
"Soon they will kill us like cattle and sheep!"
…
There was a commotion among the guests, who vented their dissatisfaction with the Greeks loudly.
Only at this moment did Asisters feel the impact of the massacre outside the city on people's hearts. He had to stand up and say, "Our Tua Alliance will never oppress you! We—"
"How can a Greek who speaks Lucania attend a Lucanian party?!!" A voice among the guests interrupted Asistes.
"Of course he can!" At this time, Bagule didn't wait for the guests to cause a commotion again, and immediately said: "He is the son-in-law of the Lucarians, my brother-in-law, Tina's husband!"
