Dracos just laughed, this time the Second Legion was no longer the follower of the First Legion, and he was proud.

Davers patted him on the shoulder vigorously and asked, "Where is the hero who crossed the Klatty?" ”

"He was wounded while crossing the river, and he was treated by a doctor in the city, so he couldn't go out for a while." Dracos replied.

"Hurt! Is it serious?! Davers asked with concern.

"I heard from the doctor that the left rib was broken a few times, the lung was damaged, and there were some external injuries, but after a period of rest, it can be healed."

"Without him, we wouldn't have won today! We must take care of him! Davers earnestly admonished.

"Don't worry, sir. We'll take care of him! ”

Davers nodded, and was about to say something, when he saw a large group of people not far away walking towards this side, and he immediately strode towards the eldest Bessinian with a smile: "Is it the leader of Bachilippi?!" ”

Bajilipi hurriedly bent down and prepared to perform the supreme etiquette of Buruti: "Bajilipi, the leader of the Bisinian Pega tribe, meets the consul Davers!" ”

Davers hurriedly stopped and said enthusiastically: "Thank you!" Without your help, Bisinia would not have restored peace so quickly! The people of Dioonia and Bissinia should thank you! Because of your decisiveness and selflessness, none of their loved ones will die in vain! ……”

What Davers said made the white-haired old man feel excited, you must know that many people in the Bessinia have called him a "traitor" these days, and the grievance in his heart can be imagined. At this moment, the young man in front of him gave him a feeling of "a rare confidant".

"Because of your merits, through my proposal, the Ionian Senate convened an emergency meeting and passed by a majority vote in the election, and you will become a member of the Ionian Senate, just like Vesbah and Hermon of Lucania, and become a respected senator in the entire Dionian League, I wonder if you are willing to accept it?"

Listening to Davers's words, the steady Bargilipi showed a shocked expression, but soon he answered without hesitation, as if he was afraid that Davers would regret it, because this is exactly what he expected: "I do!" Thank you to the Senate for believing in me! ”

Davers took his arms and laughed, "Great! We're a family from now on! ”

Dracos, Adriankos and others congratulated Bachilipi.

Bachilipi smiled rarely.

At this moment, there was a coughing sound behind him, and he remembered that he had ignored something, and hurriedly turned around and said, "Master Davers, let me introduce you, this is-"

"Chief Brim of Bissinia!" Before he could finish speaking, Davers had already saluted him first, and on the way, he had already learned in detail about the situation of several leading figures in Bissinia. At this moment, he said enthusiastically, "It is with your help that Dracos and they have been able to hold the fortress!" Likewise, the Ionian Senate invites you to join the Senate in gratitude for all that you have done! ”

Brim was a little stunned after listening to Bachilipi's translation. Before, when he saw Cosenza's army withdraw from the fortress, he understood that Bissinia would no longer belong to Bruti, but suddenly belonged to a coalition of Greeks, which was a little unacceptable psychologically.

"Talking, happy and stupid?!" Barchilipi winked at him and nudged him.

"I ...... I'm glad ......," Brim muttered quietly.

Davers didn't care, and laughed: "Elder Brim, take care of your injuries!" You'll have to rely on your help in the next battle! ”

As soon as Brim answered, Creru rushed forward, and before he could speak, Davers looked at him and said loudly, "I know you, Creru, the hero of Bissinia!" If you hadn't stepped forward, the Bessinia warriors would have been able to get home! ”

After listening to Bachilipi's translation, Creru did not expect that the Archon of Ionia, whom he had never met, not only recognized him, but also knew what he had done, and his heart was both excited and complacent.

"Originally, I had proposed to the Senate to let you enter the Senate as well, but after all, you are too young and have never managed a tribe before, and the Senate elders think that after you are appointed as an official of Ionian affairs first and accumulate some administrative experience, the Senate will be open to you!" Daverst explained to him that he did make a proposal to the Senate, but it was just for show, and he himself did not want to let this young man into the Senate now, which would only lower the quality of the Senate and make people feel that the threshold of the Senate was too low. Although the quality of veterans such as Amintas, Alpunsch and Leders was not very high, it was the initial stage at that time, and Davers needed a lot of support, and now the situation is different.

Although Creru was a little disappointed, as an ordinary tribesman in the Bisinya Nikuru tribe not long ago, he could not expect too much in the blink of an eye, so he said modestly: "Compared with the two chiefs of Bachilipi and Bloom, I still know too little, and I will do my best to adapt the people to our new homeland, Dionia." ”

Davers nodded, the leader was young, but steady and measured, he sat in this position, Davers was satisfied.

Before entering the city, Davers also went to the small river beach.

Amid the roar of the Klatty River, listening to Dracos recount the attack on Bissinia City, although the plan was drawn up by him, but witnessing the rushing river, he also felt the thrill of that night, and couldn't help but be moved to say: "Sekrian wants to keep the name Valhalla, and I think it's no problem at all!" It was the bravery and fearlessness of him and another warrior that allowed us to stand on this beach! I hope that their deeds will inspire the citizens of Dionya to give their way to the Alliance, and that the Alliance will always remember those who have done so! ”

"Your Excellency, you're right!" Dracos agrees.

Most of the Bessinicans, who had followed Davers to the riverbank, learned the reason for the fall of the town and sighed. Some people even think that if one or two watchtowers had been built in front of the river beach at that time, nothing would have happened today......

At this time, Davos turned back to Bachilipi and said to them: "Turriy and Bissinia are not too far apart, but the separation of a river makes it so difficult for Turiyi and Bissinia, and for the people of Bissinia...... Therefore, when this war is over, we will not only build a rope bridge here, but also build a real bridge, so that the city of Bissinia will no longer be a poor and remote place, but a place where merchants and pedestrians must pass, and the city of Bissinia will surely prosper! Because from Turiyi to the Cosenza plateau, it is the closest to take the Bisinia road! ”

Davers's words stirred the hearts of the Bessinians who could understand Greek, such as Barchilipi.

Returning to the city gates, he refused the request to "let the army into the city" and let the new soldiers of the First Legion, the Allied forces, and the legion reserves to expand and settle into the defensive camp to the east, but tens of thousands of heavily armed troops circled neatly in front of the city gates, still making the Bissinians fearful.

After entering the council hall of Bissinia, Davos did not delay for a moment to discuss the ownership of Bissinia with the three Bissinia chiefs and a few tribal nobles, and after half a day of discussion, an agreement was finally reached:

1. After the annexation of Bissinia to the Dionian League, the Senate will appoint an administrator to administer the administration of the city of Bissinia.

2. The jurisdiction over the people and land to which the tribes belong shall remain vested in the tribes, and shall be exercised by the tribal chiefs, without the interference of the city administrators.

3. The land tax must be paid on time by the chiefs, and military training must be attended regularly.

4. Since Bissinia was the first town in the Brutus region to be incorporated into Dionia, the tribes could apply to the Senate for the exchange of fertile tribal territories.

5. The Bessinicans enjoy the same rights and obligations as the Lucanians. At the same time, when they voluntarily ask to leave the tribe and live independently, the tribal leader must not obstruct them.

……

After the agreement was reached, Bachilipi hesitated and said, "Lord Davers...... I have one more small request. ”

"Speak, please." Davos replied politely.

"As the lifelong consul of the most powerful city-state alliance in southern Italy, you have too few guards! Like our big leaders of Buruti, who is not surrounded by two, three hundred, or even a thousand guards. Therefore, I hope that my nephew Rodom will be your squire and keep you safe. At the same time, he can also be taught by you how to be a good Ionian citizen......"

Rodom? Davers remembered the energetic young man who had been in the welcoming procession before, and he was about to respond, when the other people in the hall apparently realized the benefits of Bachilippi's proposal, and shouted: "Lord Davers, my son also wants to be your bodyguard!" ”

"And my two sons!"

"There are five of us in our clan!"

……

The reason why the people in the hall are so enthusiastic is only because of the Bissinian tradition. When Nikuru was strong, almost every family in the room had children sent to his command as guards. Now, as vanquished ones, they inevitably have a sense of gain and loss, and they are able to get closer to the supreme authority of Dionya and add an extra layer of security to their family and tribe, so why not.

Davers somewhat understood their thoughts, and he did not respond immediately, thinking of something else: according to the laws of Dionia, the number of consuls' guards was limited to a hundred, and they were always led by Martius.
