261 BC.

In the Roman War on the Western Front, the Macedonian army had gradually seized the strategic initiative. Antigone and Aloyos had already begun to discuss in detail the specific planned steps for the counterattack on Rome.

Gelas, who lived in the Macedonian royal palace, was not necessarily much easier than the generals in front of him. As regent, he performs the duties of king.

After Antigone led his troops on the expedition, Gueras had to not only handle the day-to-day affairs of state, but also provide logistical support for the various fronts.

As the saying goes, "Strategizing in the strategic, winning thousands of miles away." ”

Garras is also fighting to win the war, after all, it is his father, brothers, and sons who are fighting outside. He didn't dare to be too late. Handle all matters every day until the evening. In recent days, he has often been so tired that he can't sleep.

"Maybe I'm too tired, hey! Find a time to get out and about. ”

He thought to himself.

Gueras was forty-one years old, and he was kind and generous. He has a natural general mind, but his personality determines that he is not suitable for leading troops into battle.

He is also relatively soft-hearted on weekdays, and remembers going to quell the rebellion some time ago. He still didn't go on a killing spree, but only executed the rebel leader and let the rest of the people be indoctrinated and reformed.

The people around him also respected him, and the ministers of the DPRK and China were willing to listen to his arrangement.

Garras is a very enjoyable person, and he lives a more elaborate life. His wife, Akmina, ate and drank in luxury.

This generosity was also welcomed by those around him, and the regents were often generously rewarded.

Garrus was a very dutiful man, and he would always take time to greet his mother, Sesala, and tell her something interesting, or something on his mind to talk to the queen.

Gueras has always been proud of his family, and he always admires the deeds of the ancestors of the Antigonus family. He had great respect for his father and listened to his father, Antigones. As long as it is arranged by the old king, he will carry it out as a dogmatic decree.

The old king once said:

"There's nothing wrong with Gallas's stupidity, but it does seem a bit rigid.

But I believe in his unwavering loyalty to his family. No matter what the situation is, he will try his best to maintain the harmony and inheritance of this family. ”

Garrus had always admired the talent of his second brother, Oonos. The second brother is a serious person with a big temper, and everyone dare not provoke him.

However, the brotherly relationship between the two of them has always been close. Oonos always had good advice, and Garras was always receptive. Garas felt that the second brother was more suitable to be the heir, and he would definitely be able to lead the Macedonian kingdom into its glorious heyday.

The third brother, Damasos, was twelve years younger than him, so he had always doted on this little brother.

In the past, I had to take him with me wherever I went. This little guy is always very clever, smart and studious, and likes to draw and design. If there is anything good in Garas, think of him first.

Now Damasos can not only manage the city, build the planned city, but also lead the army to bring victory to the kingdom.

He felt very happy when he thought of this, and he felt that his two younger brothers were better than him, and would be his good helpers and heirs. He is not jealous of comparison, but just hopes that his brothers will unite and support the family together.

Speaking of his eldest son, Aloyos, Garras was filled with pride and relief.

"He's a lot like his uncle, and he's well-rounded. Will be a good king of Macedonia in the future. ”

But when Aloyos was in front of him, Garas always sternly said that he was not good enough and found fault with him.

Aloyos complained to his mother, Akmina, about why he wanted his father's approval and why Gueras always ignored his grades.

Akmina looked at him lovingly and said to him:

"Your father hates iron and steel, and he is in a hurry. When he was with me, he always talked about you.

Today I say you're good, and tomorrow I'll say you're okay. So you have to work hard! ”

Aloyos realized his father's good intentions, but then he realized that he had surpassed his father's understanding, and that he wanted to become stronger.

Gelas asked Oonos to train and educate Aloyos, and later gave his second son, Abrias, to his younger brother to train him.

Oonos did not disappoint him, and now both children have both abilities and talents, and each can take charge of himself.

"Oonnos has a bad temper and is very good at educating the next generation.

However, his own children, Cariope and Ducarus, entered the school period, but he was too busy with the war in the East to take care of it. So entrust it to me.

I myself am a little bit of a learner, so I hired the most famous teachers in Macedonia and made sure to train them well. ”

Guerras thought as he thought about it, and felt like the sky was already glowing slightly. Ah, another sleepless night. He got dressed and prepared to go out for an event.

When Gueras passed by the palace and heard the cry of the baby, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and he immediately thought of Podare Ríos, who had been born not long ago.

It was the first child of Aloyos and Sylphin, and it was like a new sun to the Garras and Antigonus. Gueras had a third generation of heirs, whom he personally named Podare Ríos. At this time, Aloyos was still on the Greek front.

What about Abrias? Ever since he was appointed to take over the Fourth Legion, he has trained and managed the new legion according to the schedule set by his uncle Oonos.

He was just sixteen years old. In the later war on the Western Front, the Fourth Army achieved remarkable results, which is obvious to all.

When Abrias heard the news from the front, he also rushed to be relieved. After all, it was the troops that they brought out.

"When will I be able to personally lead the Fourth Legion to the honor of the kingdom?"

Abrias thought.

Sending off the troops he had trained, his heart was empty, and he felt very lost for a while. The border city of Belasola looks so empty. He even wanted to apply to go home. Soon, however, he was appointed to form a new Northern Legion.

Fighting broke out on both the eastern and western fronts, and there was a shortage of troops, so the Fourth Army was transferred to fight on the southwest coast.

As a result, the northern Macedonian defense line was very empty. Although there is a peace treaty with the neighbor on this side. Will the Dartsians keep their promises? Will they take advantage of the situation? In the event of an invasion by the Dacians, what do we use to resist them? The answer is nothing.

Under multiple external pressures, many rebels and bandits have emerged in the Upper and Lower Macedonian regions.

In order to ensure that the road to the front line was unimpeded, Gueras had to personally lead the guards and the palace guards out to quell the rebellion.

But this is risky, and it is very dangerous for the capital garrison to be absent from the city for a long time.

Garras needed to find another solution, and he realized the importance of the Northern Legion.

Then it immediately occurred to Abrias, who was the best candidate, who had experience in organizing and training new legions.

As soon as Abrias received his order, he began to prepare for this matter. Since the main resources were to be supplied to the front line first, the funds and troop resources allocated to him were very limited.

But Abrias still calculated carefully and patiently organized the framework of the new army step by step.

He recruited strong adult men from the northern mountain people, trained them to become light infantry, archers, and light cavalry.

Recruit the urban phalanx infantry from Thessaloniki and recruit heavy cavalry and heavy javelin infantry.

As his army grew, his legion grew. Abrias effectively integrated these arms to form a fighting force.

In less than three months, he has led his team of personal soldiers to patrol along the way, eradicate evil, and uphold justice.

Within a month of dispatch, all the robbers in the territory were cleaned up, and the rebels everywhere were pacified and eliminated.

His troops attacked with decisiveness and swiftness. He ordered his soldiers to show no mercy and try to eliminate the rebels on the battlefield completely.

Even if he captures the rebels, he usually does not treat them well. In this regard, he was deeply influenced by Oonos, that is, he hated the rebels so much that he often punished the rebels with capital punishment as a warning to other people with bad intentions.

In this way, the counterinsurgency campaign was quickly over, and Abrias and his northern troops were in shock. The people have a good reputation for them.

Seeing that the training had been good, Abrias named the unit the Sixth Legion.

The Sixth Army Corps, which guarded the frontier, not only pacified the internal rebellion, but also frightened the northern barbarians from acting rashly.
