"That's our Dionia's trophy, it has nothing to do with Laos and Castellon!" Butler immediately objected.

"Bagule, don't worry. Do you know how the Dionysian Covenant is stipulated?" Davos asked patiently.

Bagule shook his head. He had only been a citizen of Dionia for half a year, and even the laws of the alliance had not been fully clarified, let alone these treaties.

"When there is a war in the Dionian Alliance, all allies need to send troops to participate in the war, and the spoils obtained will be distributed fairly..." Asistes said on the side.

"That's right, fair distribution!" Davos emphasized loudly: "As an ally of Dionia, when Laos learned that we had declared war with Crotone, he immediately dispatched 3,000 people, and the consul A Vinogius himself led; and Castellon not only refused Crotone's wooing, but also gave us great help in the battle. These two allies gave Dionysian full support in the war, don't we Dionia was so stingy that he couldn't even give them a share of the spoils, so which city-state would be willing to fight with us in the future! I think it doesn't matter even if we give them all the spoils, because we still have more precious thing-"

Facing Hieronymus, Bagule, and Asisters, Davos slowly spit out a word: "Land!"

The three of them immediately understood: the spoils of war could be shared, but the land won by the war belonged to Dionia alone, and Dionia used the soldiers of the allies to expand her territory, which was actually a pretty good deal.

"Lord Commander, speaking of the land. There is a situation that needs to be reported to you." Asistes interjected: "Many Lucarian soldiers of the Third Legion feel that the mountains around Aspurustum are very difficult. It is suitable for grazing, and the environmental conditions for grazing are even better than in Niutum, and they asked me to get the land here.”

"You mean they asked for "land" for themselves?" Davos responded very quickly, and immediately heard the meaning of Asisters' words.

"Yes." Asistes said embarrassedly, "Because their tribes have already allocated settlements in Niutum, I don't know if they can get land again?"

Davers did not answer directly, but looked at Bagule and asked, "Do you know about this?"

"Yes." Bagula answered truthfully: "Assistus discussed with me, most of these warriors who demanded 'land' for themselves are from various tribes in Niutum now. They saw that the Greek soldiers were all They can have their own land, but they have to share it with the tribe, so they ask to 'leave the tribe and live alone'."

Davers looked at him and continued to ask, "Do you think their request is justified?"

"I think it's very reasonable!" Bagule replied without hesitation, without considering how Davos would feel when he heard it, which made Asisters a little worried: "The 'land' earned by the soldiers fighting desperately should have been They own it and are independent, which is more conducive to their integration into the Dionysian League."

A smile appeared on Davos' face: "You can think so. I'm very happy! But what will the leaders of the Lucanian tribe think?"

"I don't think they would object." Bagul clearly thought about this issue, he said: "In the past, the tribes of Lucania recruited people to survive and strengthen themselves, but now they are in Dionysus. Under the protection of the Asian Union, there is no longer an existential crisis. On the contrary, the departure of these soldiers will make the land in the hands of the tribe richer, which is a good thing."

"I agree to give it to these Lucanian warriors who want to be independent." Davos' words made Bagule and Asisters smile, but Davos paced back and forth while thinking: he was happy to Seeing that these tribes in Lucaria were dismantled and finally integrated into the alliance, he was worried that the excessive actions would arouse the resentment of these small tribal leaders, which would not be conducive to the infiltration of Dionia to the northern Lucania region in the future. So be careful: "But before that, after returning to Turii, I will let your father and Hermon go to Niutum to test the attitude of those tribal leaders and try to convince them. Therefore, the soldiers' 'Slots' allocation may be delayed…”

Bagul and Asisters agreed.

"If some of the soldiers of the Third Legion also settle here, the training and assembly of the entire Legion will be troublesome in the future!" At this time, Hieronymus raised an objection.

Davos said with a smile: "Not only the Third Legion, but also the First and Second Legions will probably have quite a few soldiers who will settle in Aspurustum and Crimea. Who told us to get it so quickly? After acquiring so much land, don’t distribute these lands among the citizens who have neutralized military exploits, reserve citizens, and registered freedmen, and let the land be idle so that the enemy can attack! There is a legion... I will work with Felixius (military officer), Raphias (household registration officer), Bulcos (agricultural officer), and you, Capps, Drake for the specific personnel arrangement and establishment. , and the captains gathered together to discuss a suitable plan..."

Hieronymus agreed reluctantly, while Bagule and Asisters were a little excited: the expansion of the team means that they also have the opportunity to become legion commanders.

At this moment, Davos also realized that in less than a year after he came to Turii, he had experienced four wars, and in the case of successive victories, whether it was land, population, or army swelled like air. so fast! Maybe it's time to stop and integrate the inside of the alliance!

"Hey, isn't that Aristocrates!" Izam suddenly said loudly.

Everyone was busy looking down the city, and they saw that: Aristocrates rode to the front of the moat on horseback, and was about to beckon the door.

It was getting dark, and Aristocrates still came to find him. There must be something important! Thinking of this, Davos hurried down the city.

As soon as he arrived at the city gate, Aristocrates had already entered the city, and when he saw Davos, although he was tired, he smiled: "Lord Davos, today I brought a letter from Turii. Good news! Congratulations, your wife gave birth to a son for you yesterday morning!!"

Davos was ecstatic in his heart, and he took a deep breath, but his excitement did not weaken in the slightest: "Child! I have a child!! My child!!!..." Ronnie Moss shouted excitedly.

"Congratulations, my lord! This is Hera's blessing!!!..." Hieronymus, Bagule, Asisters and others, including the soldiers who knew the news, congratulated Davos.

Davers laughed hard, hugged them one by one to express his inner joy, and at the same time made fun of them: we must work harder and not fall too far behind him.

Then he planned to take the escort back to Crimea, quickly arranged everything, and then rushed back to Turii at night, but was strongly blocked by Hieronymus and others, even at the risk of violating Davos Willing to forcibly leave him overnight in the city of Aspurustum. Because it was already dark, they were going back down the mountain road again, and the river was densely covered, and the war had just ended. In case of any accident, they could not explain to the people of Dionia at all.

The next afternoon, Cristoia finished feeding the baby and fell asleep.

Asuna held her baby in the courtyard for a while in the sun, when she found that the baby was pulled. She had to go back to the outer room of the bedroom, scrub it with warm water, put on a new diaper, and instruct the other female slaves to wash the dirty clothes .

Then, she put the child back in the crib, lying on the side of the bed, singing to the child, gradually the child closed his eyes, and Asuna also took advantage of her spare time to lie beside the bed to take a nap. In a daze, she felt someone tap her shoulder: "Asuna."

She woke up immediately and looked back, unable to believe her eyes: "Master, you are back!"

Davos made a silent gesture: "How is Christoya's health?" He asked in a low voice.

"Master Helpers said she and the child are healthy, but Madam needs some time to recuperate. She is sleeping in the bedroom now." Asuna whispered, stepping aside: "Master, come and see Look at the little master, he is very cute!"

Davers tiptoed forward, and looked at his child carefully with excitement and curiosity. In fact, the child who was just a few days old had red and wrinkled skin, and it didn't look good. But Davos was so fascinated by what he saw, he couldn't help but stretched out a finger and gently touched the child's red and tender face.

The sleeping child seemed to feel itchy and scratched his face with his small hands.

Davers was amused and touched him again.

While reaching out and scratching his face, the child opened his big, bright blue eyes. The father and son looked at each other from a close distance, and then the child pouted and burst into tears.

Whether it was in the past or this life, Davos was the first time to become a father. He had absolutely no experience and was at a loss.

Asuna calmly picked up the child and began to coax her softly.

"Asuna, is the baby hungry again?" Cristoia's weak voice came from the bedroom.

"No, the master is back!" Asuna said excitedly.

"Ah!" Cristoia exclaimed in surprise.

Davos hurried into the bedroom, and saw that Cristoya was lying on the bed a little tired, but her complexion was not bad.

"You're back!" There was joy in her eyes.

"I'm back!" Davers sat on the edge of the bed, leaned down, and kissed his wife.

"Thank you for your hard work!" he said softly.

Christoya propped up her body and snuggled into Davos' arms, with a happy look on her face: "Have you seen our child?!"
