Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - v9 Chapter 232： Seeing off the king (2)

“The Overlord of the Mediterranean in Ancient Greece (

The other biological daughter of King Daves, Ivia, got into the wagon of the king’s house and was not exposed in front of others, which made the people of Turriy along the road a little regretful. Because the Princess Dionia was shy and introverted, she didn’t like to appear in public. At first, the people of Turiyi didn’t know much about her until she became the director of the zoo, because she had to take care of the animals and the tourists and visitors to the zoo. With the contact of the child, everyone understands her kindness and innocence, and thus is loved by the people.

Kristia, Agnes, Cynthia, Ivia, and the children were divided into two royal carriages, followed by two teams of court cavalry.

Compared with his enemy Persia, the team traveling by the Dionian royal family can be said to be very simple, but the support of the people for them is far beyond that of the Persian royal family.

“King Dafus wins victory!!!”

“The Hades Daves royal family wins!!!”

…

The people used constant cheers to express their support and support for King Daves and his family, and to express their best wishes for the next war.

Among the more formal cheers, there were some personal hobbies: “May Hades bless the beautiful Princess Eunice!”

“May Hades bless the kind princess Ivia!”

“Prince Anterbury, I love you!”

…

Eunice chuckled and said jokingly: “Antebris, did you hear that? Be careful I sue Ronya!”

“I don’t know that woman at all, she may be a rugby fan just like you! Don’t talk nonsense!” Anteblis quickly defended. Ronya is his wife, who was the daughter of a rugby team owner in Turey. She has a cheerful and generous personality and a passion for sports. She has never accepted Anterbury’s courtship and is worried that he will be restrained after marrying into the royal family. The perseverance of the pursuit until the two people got married after the Games last year, making him the latest of the Davers’ children to marry, it was a worry for the Daves and his wife. It is precisely because this marriage was not easy to come by, Antebris cherishes it very much.

“Relax, Ante, Eunice won’t talk nonsense, she can’t bear to lose her friend Ronya!” Apox said lightly.

“Apox, you just talk a lot!” Eunice gave him a dissatisfied glance. It is true that Eunice and Ronya have similar personalities and similar interests. Since Ronya married into the royal family, the two have quickly become As a good friend, the two often appeared together in the stands at the football and football competitions last year, which became a beautiful scenery in the game.

Davers swam around with a smile and waved frequently to the cheering people on the side of the road, but the steed under his hips did not slow down at all, and soon the traveling team arrived at the inner city pier.

The Kingdom Administration Office, the important ministers of various departments, and the elders of the Senate were already waiting here. Seeing the arrival of King Davos, they approached them in an orderly manner, bowing respectfully and saluting.

Daves got off his horse, looked at the five ministers who came to the front, and said sternly: “After I go to the Eastern Mediterranean, the affairs of the kingdom will depend on you!”

“Your Majesty does not have to worry, His Royal Highness Cloto Kataks is outstanding, and we will definitely assist him with all our strength!” Haka said in a deep voice.

“Your Majesty, we will try our best to maintain the stability of the kingdom and wait patiently for your triumphant return!” Cipros said earnestly.

“Your Majesty, we will do our best to ensure the logistics supply of the army. You can safely attack the Persians!” Anta Auris also said immediately.

Daves smiled and nodded, and patted the shoulders of Bagul and Adrianx, who were silent but determined. Many things have been arranged before, so he no longer needs to say more. what.

He smiled and paid tribute to the ministers and elders who met up with him, and slowly walked towards the trestle bridge.

When he walked to the docked royal double-eyed dragon, he was only with his family.

He stopped, his gaze gently swept across the faces of every family member, and finally fell on Patroclus, who he had just called out of the crowd, and said solemnly: “Patro, the safety of the kingdom and The safety of the royal family is left to you!”

“Your Majesty–” As soon as Patroclus spoke, Davos looked unswervingly and quickly changed his words: “Father, I will definitely assist Croto and maintain the stability of the kingdom!”

Previously, Daves asked the Ministry of Military Affairs to issue an order: to transfer Hasdruba as the commander of the Fourteenth Army, follow him to Persia, and let Sextus take over as the commander of the northern border of the kingdom.

Then he appointed his most trusted son-in-law, Patroclus, as the commander of the Kingdom’s Reserve Corps, stationed in the Turrii Barracks. The most important mission of this temporary post is to once there is turmoil in the country, especially in the Italian peninsula, He has the right to mobilize reserve forces in any area to quell the chaos.

Patroclus was unwilling to accept at first. He wanted to take part in this large-scale war between Dionia and Persia, but after Daves and his detailed discussions and the persuasion of his wife Cynthia, he finally accepted. This appointment.

Daves led his army to conquer many times before, and there has never been such an arrangement. Why did you come here this time? That’s because Daves believes that due to the long distance and vastness of Persia, the war will last for a long time, and the Kingdom of Dionian has almost exhausted all the regular legions, and the domestic defense will be insufficient. In case of sudden emergencies In the event, the army is difficult to rescue in time, so it needs a most trustworthy general to sit in the kingdom and gather the remaining military resources to maintain the security of the kingdom.

Of course, there is another important reason in Daves’ heart that cannot be said: Patroclus is still young, has already made great military exploits, and enjoys a high reputation in the army. If he is allowed to return from the Persian War, his The prestige in the army will be further enhanced, which will not be conducive to the rule of Croto Kataks over the kingdom. Even after years of careful observation, he believes that the character of Patroclus is completely trustworthy, but he still has to plan ahead. , To avoid rifts in the royal family in the future, so that the family can always maintain harmony.

Davers nodded, looked at his son, the future king, and said in a deep voice, “Take care of your two mothers and brothers and sisters. After I leave, the kingdom will be handed over to you. Do it!”

After the father-son conversation that night, Croto Kataks certainly understood the true meaning of Daves’ words and felt the heavy weight. He took a deep breath and replied with unprecedented seriousness: “Yes, father!”

“Your Majesty, don’t forget, tell me and Aegness to go to Miletus at that time!” At this moment, Kristia suddenly reminded out loud.

Davers stared at the charming faces of the two wives, and smiled softly: “You two will just wait for my good news.”

“Grandpa, I really want to go to Persia with you!” Christod could not help saying.

Daves bent down kindly: “You are still too young now. When you learn the knowledge of school, your body will grow taller and stronger. When the time comes, Grandpa will not only take you to Persia, but also take you to Egypt and Egypt. Greece, do you think it’s okay?”

“Good!” Christod nodded vigorously.

Davers smiled and squeezed his small face with his hand, and finally boarded the two-headed dragon on the ship under the attention of his relatives.

“Your Majesty.” The court clerk Henipolis and the former intelligence director Aristilas bowed and saluted at the entrance.

“Your Majesty, you are too slow…cough cough… our feet on the boat are about to get moldy!” The one who complained was Amintas in a wheelchair, while Alexis and Philip These old people also came forward to salute Davers.

“Amintas, you are so old, and you still have the same temper. You must know that fighting a big country like Persia, but you can’t be anxious.” Daves said jokingly and motioned to Hernipolis: ” Let’s sail.”

Amidst cheers and farewells, the two-headed dragon slowly sailed away from the dock and just entered the Krati River. There was louder cheers around. It turned out that the banks of the Krati River were also crowded with people. UU read www.uukanshuu. They excitedly waved and shouted at this unique warship in the kingdom.

“Your Majesty, it seems that the people’s enthusiasm for this war is very high!” Philipius said happily.

“In the past few years, the people of Turiyi have made great sacrifices for the kingdom. I am afraid that they hope that the soldiers of the First and Second Army can return in a triumphantly smoother!” Daves sighed.

As soon as he finished speaking, Amintas suddenly coughed loudly.

Just as the double-headed dragon was riding down the river, the soldiers of the First and Second Corps were boarding at the port of Turii, and at the mouth of the Krati, thousands of warships of the First and Second Fleet were waiting there. They were the kingdoms that were ordered to rush back last month. For a while, they have been running back and forth between the Italian peninsula and the southern bay of the Peloponnese. They are responsible for ensuring the safety of the army’s troop transport routes in all regions of the kingdom. The troop carrier of the Second Army and King Davos’s ship were the last missions of the two fleets during this period, and of course the most important one.

The huge fleet sailed out of Turri Bay, crossed the mouth of the Adriatic Sea, passed through coastal islands such as Corfu, Kefalonia, and Zakynthos, and entered the Gulf of Messenia.

Although Messenia is now an affiliate of the Kingdom of Dionian, most of its council members have the right to citizenship of Dionian, and Messenian citizens who are born in Black Rolls are grateful and admire Dionian. , The exchanges between the two sides are very close, in fact it is not much different from the kingdom’s own territory. At the same time, as a maritime trade relay station between the kingdom and the Greek mainland, it has greatly promoted its trade development. The continuous expansion of the port in the past few years is no longer the original appearance, and it can fully accommodate the entry of this huge fleet and satisfy The supply and demand of the two legionaries.
