Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Subsequently, the Citizens Assembly held an election, and Lycias, who brought peace to Crotone, became the chief general. Although his practice of ceding the territory was criticized by many people, the more than 10,000 civic soldiers who returned to their hometown thanked him Saved them from hell in time, so most of the votes went to him, and the general also became the general and Thesprotis, who participated in the peace talks with Lycias. [WWw.SuiMеng.lā For a time, the conservatives in Crotone's General's Executive Committee clearly had the upper hand.

But the immediate priority is to repel Lochry and rescue the Allies. Crotone's newly formed cabinet of ten generals is very clear. After careful consideration, they decided to appoint three captains with rich combat experience who had been captured by Dionia as expedition generals.

As a result, the soldiers who had just returned to Crotone had to go out again. The soldiers (including 10,000 heavy infantry), in addition to recruiting Yumin, prepared their rations and immediately set off for Corenia.

An objection was raised in the council, demanding that more citizens be left to protect the empty city of Crotone.

Lycias was conservative, but not cowardly. Not only did he not agree, he even sent an envoy to Aspurustum to tell the Dionysian garrison: Crotone is now empty in the city, and he hopes to get it if necessary. Allied bailout.

At the same time as receiving a clear response from Asistes, the Crotone fleet, led by Admiral Askamas, sailed to Coulonia with large and small warships.

…………………………

Just as Crotone was about to fight Locri, the Dionysian Senate voted for five candidates for Crimea to enter the Senate, Antaoris, Eurycopus, and Pleia. Des were selected.

This event is just an appetizer for today's long senate meeting, followed by a reward for the soldiers who took part in this Crotone war. Because the number of people participating in the war was too large, the military officer Felixius and the household registration officer Raphias only determined a rough figure at the meeting: about the official citizens will get land ranging from mu to Davos according to their military exploits. The suggestion of the leading elders is to allocate as much land as possible to the city where citizens live. Of course, if I voluntarily exchange it, it should be satisfied;

The second is the freedmen who have joined the war and are registered. Due to the victory of several consecutive battles, according to the law, more than half of them will directly enter the inspection period of official citizens. Due to this war, they have obtained a large amount of land and two The city is in urgent need of a large number of people to occupy these lands and guard the new city, so although the official citizen inspection period has not expired, the Senate still decides to grant them the Crimisa, Aspurustum and northern Croton. The five acres of land in the plain, because they have not yet become official citizens, so during the inspection period, the taxes paid are still land income, and until they become official citizens, they will be reduced to 1% of the land tax;

For the nearly 6,000 freedmen who fought in the war,

The probation period for them to become probationary citizens will be halved, and at the same time, they will be given priority to rent land in the city-state, and of course the tax burden will remain unchanged;

For soldiers who died in the war, whether citizens or free people, as long as their relatives are still alive, the Senate will reward them as normal soldiers, and also give generous pensions, mainly from the spoils.

The entire reward and distribution will be mainly completed by the agricultural officer Brooks and the household registration officer Raffias, with the assistance of the three army commanders Kapus, Drakes and Hironimus.

Citizens of Dionia called accordingly, performed their duties, and fought bravely for the alliance. The Senate, as the helm of the big ship of the alliance, we must also give them the corresponding praise and care fairly and justly, and we must not let our warriors bleed. At the same time, we have to cry! Only in this way can more people be encouraged to contribute more to the prosperity and strength of the alliance!... Finally, Davos reminded Bulcos who were about to do something with a passionate speech.

The next discussion is about the candidates for the chief executive of Crimissa and Asprostom.

There are many veterans who signed up to run for Crimea, because it is a port city with good conditions and residents are all Greeks. Although it is adjacent to Crotone, it has become an alliance after all, and there is also Asporus. Tum is at the top, and the ruling environment is relatively safe.

The result of the final vote was that Scambrace received the highest number of votes, which surprised some people, but when you think about it carefully, although Scambrace is a violent temper, he is a quick talker, and he can correct his mistakes. He is scheming and willing to help the younger generation, so many people are happy to associate with him.

According to Dionian law, Davos has the final veto power of any proposal in the Senate, but he generally seldom uses this power as long as the proposed proposal is reasonable. Just like now, he thinks that the choice of the chief executive of Crimea is not bad, and Scomblas' straightforward and friendly personality may win the favor of the Crimeans who are also hostile to the Dionysians. . So he was the first to congratulate Scambrace.

Don't worry, Mr. Consul. I will make sure that the Crimeans agree with the Dionysian Alliance as soon as possible, and at the same time coordinate the relationship between the locals and the new immigrants... Scombras said to Diver in high spirits. Guarantee.

There is an old man in the family, and if there is a treasure, the over fifty-year-old Scomblas seized the two major problems that he needed to devote his energy to solve after serving as the chief executive of Crimea. Firth said with a smile, With you in Crimesa, the Senate has nothing to worry about!

As for the candidate for the chief executive of Aspurustum City, because Davos said in advance: Aspurustum is different from Crimea, it is located in the middle and upper reaches of the Neto River, and there are occasional southwesterly swims. In the south, we must be vigilant and deter other Greek city-states from coveting the northern plains of Croton, and at the same time, we must coordinate the relationship with the Crotones.

In addition, Davos also told the elders that there were many Lucanian warriors willing to move to Aspurustum. In this way, with the exception of the Lucaria region (including Neutum, of course), Asprustum has the highest percentage of Lucania residents among the Dionian Union cities. Therefore, the requirements for the administrator of Asporustum are relatively high. First of all, he must have relatively strong military talents, some administrative experience, and strong coordination ability. At the same time, he can allow those who join Dio It didn't take long for Nia, and the somewhat free-spirited Lucanians to obey.

For the elders of Amendolara and Turii, who had suffered from the war, there was always an indelible fear in their hearts to let them deal with the war independently; On the issue, Ai is proactive in making suggestions, but when it comes to the affairs of the Greek city-state, he is always calmly watching and acting as a voter; most of the mercenary elders are unwilling to deal with administrative affairs, or have insufficient ability, such as Antonio with stronger administrative ability. Esther, Alexis and others held important public positions again and could not leave. Therefore, when the rotating chairman Cornelus announced that those who would like to serve as the administrator of Aspurustum would raise their hands, no one responded for a while.

Davos was also a little surprised when he saw this, but a person's name appeared in his mind - Asisters. It's just that Asisters is not a member of the Senate and cannot serve as the city administrator according to regulations. At this time, he realized that: before the promulgation of the Dionian Union Public Service Law, he did not become a member of the Senate and was a former mercenary member. It becomes difficult to re-enter the Senate and become a senior. For these guys who mostly only want to fight, it is undoubtedly impossible for them to re-invest in administrative affairs and move up level by level. It seems necessary to add several provisions to the Public Service Act specifically for the entry of senior generals of the legion into the Senate...

Davos pondered, but saw a person in the crowd raised his hand - Hiros, who turned out to be Davos' former captain and most powerful confidant Hiros!

Some time ago, Davos was busy with affairs, and Hiros was the patrol captain of Amendolara. Apart from meeting in the Senate meeting, there were not many opportunities for the two to meet, but Davos still understood Hiros' performance. A: With the prosperity of storage, accommodation, and food in the city of Amendolara, a large influx of foreign population has not occurred, but there has been no major conflict. The performance of Hiros is a great contributor to his ability to deal with emergencies and coordinate the settlement of residents. The impartiality of the conflict with outsiders has been well received by the people of Amendolara and the chief executive Cornerus. As for his military talent, Davos's evaluation of him is that he is good at using soldiers with dignity, which is just suitable for Asproustum, which is in a special geographical location. question. As for administrative experience...

Davos thought about it for a while: You can let Asistes stay in Aspirustum for a while to help Hiros handle government affairs. It is believed that with the serious learning attitude of Hiros, he will soon be able to govern independently.

After waiting for a while, Hiros was still the only one. Cornerus reluctantly announced that the candidate for the chief executive of Aspurustum was Hiros.

I agree with Hiros as the chief executive of Asporustum, he is the most suitable candidate! Davers first expressed his support clearly.

Subsequently, Capps, Antonios and others also expressed their approval, and the candidate for the administrator of Aspurustum was determined. Only Cornerus sighed: Although I would like to congratulate Hiros, I have to express regret for the loss of an excellent patrol captain in Amendolara!
