The council had actually taken action, and General Gorkis had deployed 1,000 soldiers along the coast, always on the lookout for enemy ships on the sea. However, Castelon is too small to fully monitor the coast, and the cunning Castelon sailors often slip through the Dionian territory on either side of Castron's territory, leaving them unguarded.

Today, Amycles and several other generals and council members are still holding emergency meetings to discuss how to completely resolve the attack by the Syracuse navy.

"To the Dionian players!" One of the lawmakers shouted.

"Help?! Dionya is now in a state of insecurity, have you forgotten that they wanted to recruit sailors from us! Another lawmaker said dissatisfied.

Just when everyone was talking endlessly, but they couldn't do anything, the guards pushed open the door of the venue in a panic: "Ladies and gentlemen, a passenger ship has come from outside the port, saying that it is a messenger from Syracuse, bringing a letter from Dionysius, the plenipotentiary general of Syracuse, asking for a ...... with us Friendly...... Friendly talks. ”

As an alliance of Dionia, according to the Covenant, Castelon was not allowed to engage in foreign affairs with other city-states, especially during war, and was not allowed to meet and negotiate with enemy countries alone.

But when the guards finished speaking, there was an eerie calm in the room, and not one of them shouted angrily: "Drive out the Syracuse!" ”

They all looked at each other with complicated expressions at the people around them.

After a moment of silence, one of the councillors said cautiously, "I think ...... See ...... It's okay too......"

There was a sound of coughing and swallowing spit, but no one spoke loudly.

The chief general Amicles, who was watched by everyone, also had a cloudy and sunny face.

At that moment, the door of the venue was pushed open again.

The guards rushed in and shouted excitedly, "Davers, the Archon of Ionia, is back!" ”

………………………………

On the morning of the first day of December, while it was still rainy in Crotone and the people of Syracuse were still distressed by their camp, the sun was shining in the Turiyi region, and the people swept away their sorrows and gathered in anticipation outside the north gate of Turiyi, and the procession extended to the west, and this huge crowd also included the Senate elders such as Kunograta and Cornerus.

It's not because the weather is good and everyone is in a good mood and they go to meet outside the city, but because the consul of the Dionian League, the military commander who led them to victory, and the descendant of Hades, the descendant of Hades, is about to return, and everyone is excited to look forward to it!

At this moment, a scout rode from the west, and shouted, "Lord Davers and the First and Second Legions are still more than three miles away, and they will be there soon!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the people of Dioonia began to get excited, and many of them couldn't help but follow the scouts to the west, wanting to see the returning consuls and relatives as soon as possible.

When the sun in the east has broken away from the temptation of the sea and begins to show its own light, rumbling footsteps have been heard in the west, and the first thing that appears in the eyes of the people is the bright red flag of the alliance, which is also the only red flag in the alliance, and the flag is a striking pattern of "black hair wrapped around double forks". Then what appeared in the eyes of the people was a military flag, but at the top of the flag was a huge golden statue of Hades, and the black flag was marked with eye-catching gold letters: Dai - Fu - Si.

One red and one black, the two flags are particularly dazzling in the sun.

The crowd began to boil, and the oncoming procession also sounded the majestic "March of Victory......

Along with the banner appeared the convoy of 300 consuls, followed by consul Davers. Usually on the march, Davers was in the center of the queue, so that he could keep abreast of the situation of the whole team, but after knowing the movements of the Dionian people in advance, he chose to be at the head of the line in order to ensure that the army's advance was not hindered.

The crowd poured in like a tidal wave, and the soldiers of the patrol could not stop it, and the convoy immediately formed a barrier to protect Davers in it, and the people surrounded him, and everyone raised their hands high, as if they only had to touch his body to comfort their frightened hearts during this time.

"Master Davers, you're finally back, we've been waiting for you for a long time!"

"Mistress Davers, you know what? In the time you've been away, things have been terrible in the Alliance! ”

"You know what?! We lost to the Syracuse in the battle, with thousands of dead and wounded! ”

"Lord Davos, damned Tarantum has betrayed the Covenant, captured our allies, and plundered our land, destroying all the farmlands of Amendolara!"

"Lord Davers, we take so good care of the Brutis, but they betrayed us in our most difficult time! Think of a way to punish these rebellious Brutis! ”

"Lord Davers, I'm from Crimesa, and the alien cavalry hired by Syracuse burned down our village and slaughtered the people who couldn't hide in the city, they were a bunch of man-eating beasts! When will you be able to drive them away and give Crimesa tranquility and peace! ”

"Lord Davers, I live on the south bank of the Klatty River, and these days Syracuse's fleet has often landed on the coast and raided villages. Our village, so close to the coast, was sacked by the Syracuses, and many of my neighbors died at the hands of the enemy...... You must avenge us! ”

……………………………………

That call contains true affection, like the joy of a weeping child at the return of his mother; The request was full of anticipation, it was a child in difficulty asking for help from Yan's father......

As Davers listened, his expression became heavier and heavier, and tears gradually appeared in his eyes, and he said in a loud and affectionate voice: "The people of Dionia, my brothers and sisters, follow me to the square!" Go to the square and I'll give you an answer! ”

After listening to this, the people actually reminded each other to "stop making noise", and at the same time shouted in unison: "Go to the square!" Follow Master Davers to the square!! ……”

Thousands of people quieted down, no longer blocking the roads, but following the army into the city......

This is our archon! Seeing this, Kunogorata was full of emotion: you must know that these elders are also working hard for the alliance every day, but when they really encounter difficulties, the first thing that the people think of and look forward to is still the young consul in front of them! And Davers was the only one who could appease and appease the restlessness and anger of all the people, and all the elders were covered by his dazzling light! From this point of view, it seems that it is only natural to make him king......

Kunograta watched as Davers approached with mixed feelings.

"Master Kunograta, Lord Cornerus...... You've all worked hard all this time! Davers sat down on his horse and thanked the senators sincerely.

"Thank you, Lord Archon, for repelling the Samoneans, we are all looking forward to your return!" Kunogorata and other elders also respectfully returned the salute.

In such a situation, it was inconvenient for both sides to say more, so they followed them into the city.

Although Davers led the two legions to a great victory, it was still a time of war, and the alliance was in turmoil, and the Senate did not hold a triumphal ceremony for them, and Davers did not apply. But when passing through the first triumphal arch, the soldiers raised their heads and straightened their chests to the rousing music.

And the populace gradually discovered the anomaly in the triumphant return of the army: in the center of the procession there were more than a dozen pack carts, loaded with spears, javelins, shields, armor...... The style is somewhat different from that of Dionia's army. At the back of the pack wagon, thousands of naked men, staggered forward by soldiers, their appearance also different from that of several races within the Ionian League......

Only then did the people, who were anxious and anxious to protect their predicament, suddenly remember that the army led by Lord Davers had defeated the Samonai in the north, which was so feared by the Lucanians!

So the anxiety of the people was temporarily relieved, and they began to cheer for the soldiers......

Davers was on his horse, his mind racing...... In fact, when the troops walked out of the mountain pass last night, he learned from the men sent by Aristilas about everything that had happened in Dionia during this time. The assassination made him realize that his life and the safety of his family were seriously threatened, and he had to provide stronger protection for his family, that is, to break away from the people, sanctify himself, and become a superior royal family......

It's just that Davers didn't expect things to go so smoothly and so quickly, and all thanks to sworn enemy Syracuse. Yes, Davers had taken Dionysius seriously enough, but he still underestimated the Sicilian tyrant, and he hatched a huge plan to keep the border war in Dionysia, distracting the relatively strong forces of the Dionian Alliance, and leading his army all the way to the brink, almost leaving Dionia in a desperate situation.

Whether it is to sit on the throne smoothly or save the people in danger, Davos must quickly come up with a way to break the crisis created by the people of Syracuse and give the people confidence!

Ahead is Victory Square.

Davers looked up at the stone pillar in the center of the square, which pointed to the sky, and the goddess of victory at the top of the pillar held a sword, with her wings outstretched.

Davers looked at it, his frown furrowing as he relaxed......
