"I led the tribe to build a new road and a residential area for the Tua Alliance, and I led the tribe to participate in the battle against Crotone, and now I have captured Niutum and made these achievements, so I Become the senator of the senate!" Bagule said proudly: "And my father did nothing else, but never a Lucanian joined the Greek city-state before, and he bravely led more than 2,000 people. The tribe took the initiative to join a Greek alliance (including family members, here Bagule deliberately distorted the facts), created history, and agreed and encouraged me to lead the tribe to do everything for the alliance, Lord Davos took the initiative to invite him Join the Senate!"
The crowd exclaimed in admiration.
Asisters also emphasized: "The Senate is open to any citizen in the alliance. As long as you make enough contributions to the alliance, the Senate will take the initiative to include you!"
Hermon nodded in understanding.
"But what if Grummentum, Pixis, and even Potentia from the north come to attack Niutum, who joined the Tua Alliance?" Someone asked worriedly.
"I think you all know that Grummentum and Picocis are fighting with each other now, they are in a mess, they can't take care of us in a short time, and even if they attack, we are not afraid, we have Davos Your Excellency!" Asisters said loudly, this sentence was worth a million, and it immediately relieved everyone's worries.
"I am willing to lead the tribe to join the Tua Alliance!" Kesima stood up and said.
"I'm willing too!" Ulaza followed and stood up.
"I can't let Weisba be proud of the Senate alone!" Hermon also stood up.
…
Seeing that almost all the guests were willing to join the alliance and become reserve citizens of the alliance, Bagule and Asisters smiled at each other and raised their glasses: "Come, let's work together for not only the Greeks, but also Luca. Cheers to the Tua League of the Nians!"
…
The next morning, the troops of Avinogis opened the city gates, cooperated with the Tua alliance army, easily defeated the defenders of Lucania, and finally rushed into the mansion of the chief chief, and caught Laos chief Tula. , He was hiding on the bed shivering, next to the Greek slave girl who was strangled by him and had a cold body, and the angry Tua Union soldiers immediately pierced his chest with a stab.
Avenogis kindly invited Felixius to lead his troops to camp in the city, but Felixius politely refused, and said: "Laos has just recaptured, and the order in the city needs to be rectified. We have too many soldiers. I'm afraid it will cause trouble for you in the city and affect the friendship between Laos and the Tua alliance! We will repair outside the city for a while and then leave, Lord Davos has explained it before coming!"
Felixius' insistence and Tua's alliance took the initiative to make Avinogis very emotional for the sake of Laos, and half of the money and livestock that were about to be seized were given to Felixius as a token of gratitude.
Felixius did not refuse. Coupled with the loot seized in Niutum before, the Tua Alliance sent troops this time to gain a lot. According to the order of the Senate, all cattle, sheep and livestock were left to Niutum, so that Sesta could use them to aid the Lucarians who had taken refuge in the Tua League. Most of the money was brought back to Turiyi, part of it was used as military resources, part of it was turned over to the state treasury, and a small part was distributed to the soldiers as rewards. The seized weapons were donated to the Soldiers Committee free of charge.
Philisius left the second and fourth troops to temporarily guard Niutum, and led the rest of the troops to carry five days' rations, left Laos, and came to the entrance of the defile before. order to start building the camp.
The accompanying Arobmas felt strange.
Facing Arobmas' inquiry, Felixus answered truthfully: "The Senate ordered (actually Davos' order), 'After the capture of Laos and Neutum, the army must repair at the entrance of the pass. A fortress, and soldiers were stationed for a long time to prevent the future invasion of the Lukania army in the north. After encircling Niutum, it quickly blocked the mountain road in the south, blocking the support of the Tua alliance to Niutum and Laos. .'"
Arobmas was silent for a while and asked: "The trade and personnel exchanges between Laos and Niutum in the future..."
"It won't be affected in any way! They can pass the fortress smoothly without charging any fees!" Felixius said with certainty.
In order not to destroy the good alliance between Laos and the Tua Alliance, Arobmas had no choice but to express his approval. In fact, both sides understand that building a fortress here to protect the mountain road that connects with Turiyi is not only the Tua alliance that can successfully support Niutum in the future and fight against the Lucaria army. In addition, if one day Laos betrays the alliance or has other abnormalities, the army of the Tua alliance can still pass through the fortress and approach the city of Laos. This is a dignified and upright conspiracy!
… … … …
Sesta's temporary administrative mansion was flooded early in the morning with many Lucarians who asked to join the alliance, lease livestock and lease land.
Sesta was overjoyed, and asked Bagule and the soldiers of the Fourth Brigade to maintain order and act as translators. The assistants of the household registration officers and agricultural officers who accompanied the army were all ready.
Household registration, signature, handprint...
Write the lease agreement, sign it, put fingerprints on it…
Unexpectedly, more and more Lucanians came. Not only because of the group effect, but also because of the "Interracial Marriage Law" specially formulated by the Tua Union to quickly consolidate the newly occupied Niutum, some savvy Lucanians realized that the Tua Union must be quickly consolidated. Get the benefits given, otherwise the Greeks from Turii will snatch them from them.
The northwest of Niutum is backed by the La River, and the other side of the river is a not too steep mountain forest; the southeast is a narrow and long valley with a width of less than two miles, and it goes straight to Laos; further east, it is continuous. , the insurmountable mountains, only a defile leads to Turii; only the northeast is the area between the upper reaches of the La River and the upper reaches of the Agri River. Although the terrain is high and the soil is still fertile, it used to be the settlement of many small tribes. Land, which later came under Niutum's control. The shape of this area is irregular, the terrain is also rugged, and part of it is divided by mountains, which is relatively fragmented and difficult to measure and distribute. Therefore, Bagul suggested to Sesta: according to the number of tribes, the land should be divided among the tribes, and the tax burden should be collected by the chief and the tribesmen. Lucanians without tribes are allocated separately (in fact, this situation is relatively rare), which saves time and manpower, and also avoids direct friction and conflict between the alliance and the Lucanians in Niutum.
Taking into account the particularity of the Lucania Mountains and the Lucania tribe, Sesta agreed with Bagul after thinking.
…
Just when Sesta was racking his brains and busying himself with the governance of Niutum, Davos received an urgent battle report from the west, regarding the victory of Niutum and Laos. It was originally expected, and the only bit of anxiety caused by the fact that he did not direct himself has also disappeared. He has repeatedly warned himself that he cannot learn from Napoleon. The Mediterranean Sea is very large, and the Tua Alliance will encounter many enemies in the future. He needs more excellent commanders who can command operations independently.
Sesta's performance in Niutum was beyond his expectations, but... He handed the sandpaper roll to Aristocrates, and asked a little angrily: "What about Sesta letting Greek slaves slaughter Luca? What do you think of Leah's capture?"
After making the decision to let Asisters assist Sesta in governing Niutum, Davos did not plan to let Asisters come back to be the secretary again. The eagle will eventually grow up and fly independently in The vast sky, just the secretary has to find another person.
Davos remembered Aristocrates, who was able to calmly defend himself and moved the elders of the Senate when he faced Plessinas who asked for fugitive slaves in Amendolara, so he sent Aristillas to find them. , he ended up working in Cristoia's new restaurant in Turii, when Aristillas told him that Lord Davos wanted a clerk (because the clerk was a public office, Aris Docrates were only freemen and could not serve), which he readily accepted.
As a result, when Davos came home at night, he got a complaint from Cristoia, saying that he dug someone into his own head, and finally carried out "revenge", almost draining him with his mouth and hands...
"My lord, I don't know Niutum, so I can't make a comment." Compared with the fast-talking Asisters, Aristocrates, who has experienced hardships since childhood, is much more cautious.
Davers glanced at him: is this a subtle reminder to himself
Davos thought for a while and said slowly: "You are right, we don't know more about Neutum's situation than Sesta. Since he has been appointed to manage Neutum, we should let it go. He did it... I just didn't expect that this Sesta, who is usually not very conspicuous, would act so straightforwardly and violently, which is better than me!"
…
Because the synagogue of the Senate of Turiyi had not yet been built, the afternoon meeting of the Senate was still held in the Senate of Amendolara.
At the meeting, Davos announced loudly: The Tua Alliance successfully captured Niutum and helped its ally Avinogis to retake Laos.
Although the elders had received the news before the meeting, they still cheered loudly.
Then Davos said excitedly: "Everyone, from today onwards, the Tua Alliance owns the territories of Turii, Amendolara, and Niutum, and we also have Castron and Laos. Allies in our lordship. Although Crimea remains neutral and Poseidonia remains in the hands of the Lucanians, we have more Niutum. In addition to the lack of population, the trade is not prosperous enough, the prestige It's not enough, basically the Tua Alliance has restored the territory and allies of Sybaris a hundred years ago, and we will recreate the glory of Sybaris in Greater Greece!"
Thank you for the reward of Layman Zhuoshan!
