"As for supervising the execution of the peace treaty by the city-state of Ellis, the cession of land, and the resettlement of immigrants, because the death of Akis has been put on hold for the time being, I have recommended to the council that you be put in charge, I wonder if you are willing to go?" Update.

"I do!" Phoebe Das blurted out that he had nothing else to do during this time except for military training and attending the king's funeral, and it was inevitable that he would be lost when he watched others being transferred overseas one by one to perform important tasks. Now, how could Agosilaus put such a fat gap in front of him, so that he could not be moved and grateful!

"Thank you very much, King Agosilaus, for your trust in me! Your becoming our king is a gift from Zeus to Sparta!! ”

Hearing the flattery of Phoebeidas, a talented young generation of Sparta, Agocilaus smiled.

………………………

After Agosilauth and Phoebidas left, there were only a dozen people in the cafeteria, and a young man with a linen on his head sneakily appeared from behind the pillars, looking at Agosilaus's back full of hatred.

He hurried to get his share of the meal, and the cook who distributed the food actually jokingly said: "Leotizides, how can you dress like this, like a woman?" ”

A Piriasians dared to make fun of him, and Ortizides would have beaten him in anger if he had been there, and might even have cut off his hands and feet, but the son of the former king had no heart to argue, and found a corner, sat down, and munched on bread, and for some reason tears rolled in his eyes: his failure to run for the throne made him a joke of Sparta, and his usurping uncle gave half of his father's inheritance to the people who were in difficulty, Thus he was embraced by the royal family, who praised Agosilaus for his righteousness, but some proposed that he and his mother be expelled from Sparta on the grounds that 'he and his mother were not Spartans, but had become a disgrace to Sparta.' Although the Council of Elders rejected this absurd proposal, the Spartans looked at Leotizides with more and more contempt.

"What the hell did I do wrong?! The goddess of fate is going to punish me like this?! In order to prove myself, I grew up participating in the 'agog' (the brutal military training that Spartan boys did from an early age) that the king's heirs did not have to participate in, and I always performed well in every training, I always fought desperately at the front, my debates always left my peers speechless, and my articles were better than theirs, but why?! Why?! They don't see this, but they always use these rumors to humiliate me and my mother!! Damn Agesilaus! Damn the Council of Elders! Damn it...... Akis, if it weren't for the fact that you were not good to your mother, how could you ...... There are so many rumors generated! ......" In the end, Leotizides began to complain about his dead father: "I can't bear such humiliation anymore!" I'm going to leave this disgusting place with my mother! I'm leaving Sparta!! ……”

Leotizides finally made up his mind, and his steps became vigorous again, and when he was about to reach his destination, he saw a number of people around his door, all shaking their heads and sighing, and looking solemn, and a feeling of uneasiness rose in his heart.

"Leotizides!" A clansman who usually had a good relationship saw him and said sadly, "Your mother...... Committed suicide ......"

…………………………

Diopantos' troops ravaged the Cilitine territory, and the Cilitine defenders were forced out of the city to meet the enemy, while the Lokli retreated early.

By the next day, the Lokley had reappeared.

When the Cilitin defenders pursued to the coast as they had done yesterday, they found nearly two thousand Lokeli soldiers on standby.

The Silitin defenders, who had been in pursuit all the way and were no longer arrayed, quickly retreated, and under the pursuit of the Lokley cavalry, the Silitins paid hundreds of casualties, hid in the city, held it tightly, and sent people to ask for help from the Crotone army in Coronia.

The Crotonens, as leaders of the Alliance, had to send 3,000 men to the aid of Siritin, but the Lokry retreated again from the sea.

While the Crotone reinforcements were hesitating whether to stay in Siriting or return to Coronnia, 3,000 Allied troops of Lockrie, Medma, and Hibernian marched along the west coast, crossed the Lala River, and entered Trina.

The Trina people, who had already learned their lesson from Siritin, did not dare to rush out, but asked for help from Crotone.

Shortly after the Crotone reinforcements left Siriting and entered Trina, the Lochry landed on the coast of Siritin.

Crotone's army was moved back and forth, but it couldn't touch a single hair of the Lockleys, and there was nowhere to vent the fire.

Siriting and Trina were also miserable, with freshly planted farmland destroyed and war-weariness on the rise.

At this time, the Crotone people finally figured out that the more than 20 warships that suddenly appeared during the naval battle were not secretly built by Lockley in the past year, but were aided by the Syracuses.

This news caused the Crotone envoy to panic......

…………………………

During this time, in addition to dealing with the affairs of the alliance, Davers, who returned to Turiyi, stayed at home to accompany his wife, take care of the newborn children, and educate his adopted sons, and lived a very full and happy life. Even if Crotone's emissaries had arrived in Turiyi to ask for help from Dionia, it did not cause him any anxiety, as Shilos and Assistes quickly pushed back the Lokri who had invaded Crotone's territory.

For this reason, the senators of the Senate also praised Davers for choosing the right administrator of Aspraustum.

In his letter to Shilos and Assistes, Davers praised them for taking the right measures decisively in such a complicated situation, and encouraged them to act boldly in times of crisis, and not to delay the opportunity by being too concerned about their own feelings and waiting for orders from the Senate.

Shiros's excellent performance also allowed Davers to completely put his mind at ease and focus more on the resettlement of Sprustum and Crimesa.

But at this moment, he received the news from Aristilas that "the envoys of Crotone, Siritin, Trina, and Coronia have joined forces to go north", and in connection with the situation of the war between Crotone and Lockri that Aristiras reported to him in the past few days, the purpose of these envoys of the city-state to Turriy is obvious.

Davers's first thought: this was a rare opportunity to expand Dionia's power and influence, and it was not unacceptable to fight Lockrie in comparison.

But then, he began to hesitate a little: thanks to the "special attention" of Aristiras from Catanay to Syracuse, he also knew the truth about the defeat in the Battle of Crotone, Syracuse was Lockery's real ally, and sent reinforcements in this war, Davers was going to war with Lockery, he would inevitably offend Syracuse, was it worth it?

Davers had to think carefully about it.

In his previous life, he didn't know much about the history of Syracuse, only that Archimedes and Syracuse were one of the main culprits that triggered the First Carthaginian War, and the Romans easily crushed Syracuse, it seems that Syracuse's strength is not worth mentioning, but you must know that it was the Romans who used the power of the whole of Italy to fight against Syracuse in the declining period.

When Davos traveled to this era of the Mediterranean world, he felt the awe of the Greek city-states of Italy for the great Sicilian state of Sicily, Syracuse, in Greater Greece. Syracuse, which had defeated Carthage a few decades earlier, had dominated Sicily and Greater Greece, and now it seems to be returning to its former glory and tending to dominate the Greek city-states of Sicily. Sicily is just an island, but the land is fertile, it is a famous wheat producing area in the Western Mediterranean (mainly because of volcanic ash), and the Greeks colonized a large number of people here, and developed Sicily very early, plus Sicily is located in the near center of the Mediterranean, becoming an important hub of trade and circulation in the East and West Mediterranean, so Sicily commerce and agriculture are relatively developed. Just by looking at the fact that Syracuse was able to organize such a large army in the mere possession of southeastern Sicily, one can imagine the enormous war potential of Syracuse, which is not comparable to that of Dionia, which was still in its infancy.

However, Davers is not a frog in the well, ignorant and ignorant of the potential danger, on the contrary, the history of his previous life is full of countless examples and those political economy, geopolitical and topography theories, etc., all tell him that no matter how Dionica dodges, once Syracuse really defeats Carthage and unifies the Greek city-states of Sicily, then Dionia, which is rapidly rising on its side, will inevitably attract its attention, become an obstacle to its expansion, and even the target of the next attack, it is better to take advantage of Syracuse to fall into the quagmire of war with Carthage, Seize the time to strengthen yourself so that you can have the strength to stand up to Syracuse in the future.

So after careful consideration, Davers finally made a decision and persuaded the Senate.

Sisprotis was the emissary of Crotone, because he accompanied Lucias to successfully reach an armistice with Dionya and sign a treaty of alliance, and then separately "convinced" the Dionian defenders of Sprustum to send troops to help Crotone and force back the Lockleys, so almost everyone in the Council of Crotone (except Lycias) unanimously elected him as an envoy to Dionia, which was the first time that the councillors of Crotone were so valued, and the other three city-state envoys who were with him also looked down on him along the way. Sisprotis is inevitably a little fluttery.

Entering the city of Turiyi, the envoys felt that the newly built city did not have the bustle and vastness of the city of Crotone, but it was also free from the crowding and hustle and bustle.
