Although Davos was in a good mood, he didn't joke with this more serious man, but said seriously: "Your Third Legion is stationed in the towns of Niutum and Grumentum, and it is an important force to stabilize the Lucania region. Dionya is at war with the Brutis, will Picosis and Pothenia take the opportunity to provoke a war and retake Grummentum? ”

What Davers said caused Sesta and Hieronymus to think.

After a while, Sironimus said dejectedly: "My lord, you mean to let the Third Legion stay in place to prevent the invasion of Pikosis and Poittia?" ”

"It's not just about defense." Davers smiled lightly and said in a deep voice: "If they dare to tear up the peace agreement, then Dionia will dare to take Picosis and Poittia while conquering Bruti!" ”

A war on both sides?! Sesta and Hieronymus looked at each other, marveling at the young archon's superhuman courage and some apprehension.

"Don't forget, Elia." Davers reminded.

"What does Elia's strength do?" Sesta disagreed.

However, Hieronymus, who had been in battle for a long time, suddenly thought of something in Davers's smile, and his spirit was lifted: "My lord, I will discuss with Butler how to seduce them." ”

"When I see Avinokis, I will also propose to him to use their port, and I am sure he will agree." Davers laughed.

………………………

"Lord Avinogis, I haven't seen you for two months, and you seem to have gained a lot of weight." Davers said half-jokingly as he faced the Archon Laos, who had come to greet him.

Avenokis smiled and patted his obviously bulging belly: "Who called Dionya is too powerful!" With your fart, everything is going well in Laos, I don't need to worry about anything, the only thing that worries me is what new food is made in your wife's restaurant, can I be the first to taste it! ”

Davers looked at his trembling fat face, and couldn't help but remind: "I suggest that you don't eat too much at every meal, and try to lose some weight, which is good for your body." ”

Avinogis remembered something, slapped his head with his right hand, and said, "Oh, I almost forgot that you are still a magical doctor, my lord!" Since you say so, then I will try to control my weight gain. ”

"Thank you for trusting me." Davers could tell what he meant, he was trying to control his weight rather than lowering it, and it was clear that he wasn't very concerned about his body.

When I first saw Avinokis, his muscular body had now grown in size, but all the fat had increased. Look at Arrobmas beside him, who is thinner than he was a year ago, and I heard that Avinokis has entrusted most of the administrative affairs of the city-state to his younger brother. People, once they have lost their sense of distress, lost their goals, and learned to be greedy for pleasure, it is difficult to cheer up again...... Davos sighed in his heart.

"Lord Davers, this ...... This second army of Dionyas seems to ...... Something seems wrong! Arrobmas looked at the army marching past them with a banner held high, and said in a confused voice.

"Brother, I heard that the Ionian army is recently replacing with new weapons and equipment, of course it is different from before!" Avinokis interrupted Arrobmas and ordered his brother: "The war with Bruti is about to begin, go and block the port and all the passages outside the city at once, and forbid anyone to enter or leave!" ……”

Davers couldn't help nodding, Avinokis was still the leader of the descendants of Xubaris who dared to unite with Dionia and overthrow the rule of the Lucanians when he saw the opportunity, although his body had changed significantly, his mind was still clear, his military sense was very keen and his political reaction was extremely fast, and he completed all the deployments without Davers's request.

………………………

A hurried bugle sounded, and the soldiers quickly retreated down the hillside. Stones and wood chased them down, and when a soldier was unfortunately hit, nearby teammates rushed forward to help, and screams rang out from time to time......

Cappus, who saw this scene at the bottom of the mountain, had a gloomy look on his face, and couldn't help but sigh: "This kind of terrain is too unfavorable for us, and the advantages of the legion cannot be brought into play at all. ”

"The offensive has not been in vain in the past few days, but we have taken one of the enemy's camps and advanced our offensive line here." Antonios comforted him.

"It wasn't captured by us, but the Buruti people evacuated on their own initiative, and so far we haven't even seen the enemy, but our brothers have already suffered more than 300 casualties!" Cappus said in pain.

"Most of them were traumatic injuries and fractures, and after treatment in the medical camps, most of them were able to return to normal, and there were not many deaths. This is already very good, how can there be no immortal in war, like when we were in Persia......" Antonios continued to comfort him.

"However, the brothers did not die in battle with the enemy, such a way of death is too embarrassing! According to the guide, Wig City is still five or six miles away! Five or six miles! It's always been such a difficult mountain road! I'm afraid that by the time we get to Vig City, our people will be dying! Amintas yelled irritably, "When will the Second Legion start moving?!" Haven't moved for so long! If you had known that this was the case, you should have insisted that our First Legion carry out that mission! ”

"Who called our First Legion too famous, if you don't attack here, how can you make the Bruti people believe that this is the focus of our attack, and only in this way can we attract the main force of the Bruti people!" Alexis said calmly and admiringly: "Only the commander dares to do this!" Who would have thought that we would attack Vig City at the risk of sacrificing the precious lives of our citizens, just to mobilize the enemy! ”

"Shh Kapus made a gesture alertly, looked left and right, and whispered: "I hope that the Second Legion can successfully complete the mission, and don't let our brothers die in vain!" ”

………………………

"Chief, the Greeks have retreated!"

Hearing the excited report of his subordinates, Saru was not only not happy, but a little disappointed: "The Dioonians run as fast as rabbits, if they climb over that hill and push down the stones stored on the mountain path together, they will not be able to escape if they want to, and they will die even more!" ”

"Don't worry, as long as they are still ready to continue attacking Vig City, there are more opportunities like this!" Sedorum stood up and praised, "We have been able to defend ourselves against the enemy for three days!" Dioonia sent the First Legion, which they claimed to be the 'strongest army', to attack, but instead of making any progress, many soldiers were killed and wounded! Saru, you've done a good job! ”

"If this situation continues, we can make it impossible for the Dioonians to reach Vig City for a month!" Saru said confidently, "Great Chief, I think we can deal with these Greeks ourselves, and let the Cosenza people go back." They occupy our houses, eat our food, and don't have to take part in the battle, and the soldiers are angry! ”

"The Kosenza people still eat mainly their own food, and we and the Kosenza are now united, and there are many opportunities to fight together in the future, you have to start getting used to it, and persuade our warriors not to complain too much." Sedorum said to him patiently: "What's more, judging from the current situation, the Dionians have not yet used their full strength, they should still be adapting to the terrain here, you must know that they have a force composed of Lucanians, as well as Laos's troops, we haven't seen them yet, we can't underestimate the enemy!" Have you forgotten how the Lucanian Tribal Alliance attacked our city in the first place? ”

"I haven't forgotten!" Saru clenched his fists.

"Yesterday there was news from Knappetia that the Greeks there were attempting to sneak up on the trail, but fortunately they were spotted in time to repel them. We also need to be wary of the Lucanians coming around from the mountains, but it is precisely because of the large army of Cosenza that we can fight the enemy here with confidence. Sedorum continued to persuade.

Saru nodded silently.

"The later the Dioonians arrive in Vig, the faster their morale will drop, the greater their food consumption, and the better our chances of defeating them! At that time, the splendor belonging to the people of Bruti will come! ......" was originally meant to persuade and motivate Saru, but as he spoke, Sedorum himself couldn't help but get excited.

………………………

The sun was setting behind the mountains, and the earth was sinking into darkness.

The herding mountain people drove their cattle and sheep home early, and the children who ran wild in the mountains during the day were also called home by their parents, because in the dark the mountains are the world of wild beasts.

The wilderness outside Bissinia was no longer inhabited, and the occasional howl of wolves was heard, except for the Kratty River, which had roared for a day, and in the silent twilight, the sound of the waves was even greater, as had been the case for thousands of years, and the inhabitants of Bissinia had long been accustomed to it, and they felt that the louder the waves, the more they showed that the Kratty River had protected them, so they all fell asleep peacefully to the sound of the waves.

Little did they know that on the other side of the river, in the dense woods, thousands of Dionian soldiers were marching, and the sound of the river "boom, boom, ......boom" drowned out all their noises.

The cliffs on both sides of the upper reaches of the Kratti River are steep, but not all of them are like this, and the city of Bissinia is located on a river beach about ten meters long in front of this col, where the Bissinians often come to draw water and wash clothes. On the opposite bank of this river beach, there is a gentle slope that can go down to the river, and the craggy rocks on the riverside can accommodate ten people.
