Davers looked around and finally looked at Haka in the front row, with a few smiles on his face to express his greetings, and nodded to Anta Oris.

"Clang!" Anta Oris rings the little bronze bell on the table, and then the etiquette officer in front of him shouts: "The meeting begins! (In the past, the rotating chairman was shouting, but there were more and more veterans. It was very laborious to call them all day long. Moreover, the five rotating chairmans were older. Several times, the rotating chairman shouted hoarse and exhausted at the end of the meeting, so it was later changed to a young etiquette officer who took over the job).

Anta Oris then cleared his throat and said loudly: "The bill proposed by His Majesty to divide the kingdom into nineteen regions has been passed. Today's main issue is to elect the Chief Executive of these regions.

Because the Roman region, southern Iberia and western Sicily are located on the border of the kingdom, the situation is complicated and the situation is relatively bad. For the security of the kingdom, special candidates have been determined, with Yassites as the Chief Executive of the Roman region, Bagule as the Chief Executive of the southern Iberia region, and Antonios as the Chief Executive of the western Sicily——”

There was a small commotion in the venue. Davers had not confirmed the candidate for the Chief Executive of the Western Sicily region before. Some people might have hoped, but when they heard it was Antonios, they immediately lost their temper.

Although Antonios made mistakes before, he served as the chief executive of an important town in the Kingdom for many years, and during the Western Mediterranean War, he served as the wartime governor of the Doni region, which had just been conquered and was attacked by the Samones, which was not easy, which shows his excellent governance capabilities. In addition, he was once a senior general in the army, with outstanding meritorious and high qualifications, so no one raised any objections to this.

"The rest of the district chief executives are elected by the elders according to the previous chief executive selection rules." Anta Oris paused and continued: "But when recommending candidates, there is a principle that must be followed. District chief executive candidates must have more than four years of urban chief executive resume!"

This rule was discussed and determined by the elders in the last meeting, mainly to ensure that the elders who were elected as regional chief executives had sufficient administrative experience. Of course, it also ruled out the possibility that those who became Dionian elders after the Western Mediterranean War wanted to become regional chief executives.

No matter how regretful some people were, Anta Oris raised his voice and continued: "I announced the election of the regional chief executive! The first area to be elected is the Corsica region. Are there anyone who wants to be elected?"

In fact, there is only one town in Alenia in the Corsica area, including eight or nine settlements with only a few hundred people. In terms of population and land area, it is not only far inferior to the big cities of Crotone, Cosenza, Katanai, and even medium-sized towns such as Silitin, Crimesa, and Udie. However, after it was divided into one area by Davers, this small half island became much more important in the eyes of some veterans. After all, no matter how small it is, it is also a region.

The etiquette officer glanced at the venue. Among the eight senators who raised their hands, he chose the oldest one (this is also the new rule implemented by the Senate in recent years. During the meeting, the elders cannot stand up and speak at will, and they must raise their hands. The etiquette officer shouted in turn according to their age and qualifications. This can avoid chaos in the venue to the greatest extent and improve efficiency): "Mr. Stromboli!"

Stromboli stood up and said slowly: "I recommend Philocrates. Although he is young, he has rich experience in government affairs. He has served as a scribe of the Kingdom's Household Registration Department. Oh, it was during the Dionian League, so he should not be called the Kingdom..." Stromboli deliberately emphasized the qualifications of the recommended candidates: "Court recorder, construction department official... Chief Executive Castellon, Chief Executive Saint Ibinia.

Although he served as the Chief Executive of the Town for only five years, he is the only kingdom administrator in the kingdom who has been managing a metal smelting center for a long time. In the four years of his governance of St. Iberia, his metal production and quality have been increasing year by year, and he has also been commended by His Majesty——”

When he said this, he stretched out his left hand and led to Davers in the middle of the field.

Davers neither denies nor nodded to confirm. After all, he had promised not to interfere with the election of the regional chief executive, so he should try his best to remain calm and not let his random action mislead the veterans on the field.

"For a region like Corsica, which is also mainly based on metal smelting, I think Philocrates is the best choice!" Stromboli looked around and said his last sentence confidently.

Five of the seven veterans who raised their hands just now quietly put down their arms, not because they felt that Philocrates was indeed the best candidate for the Chief Executive of the Corsica region, but because they felt his determination to support Philocrates from Strombori's words.

Stromboli was the head of the Amendorala sect in the Senate after Cornerus. Amendorala was just a small town with a small population, but it occupied an important position in the Kingdom of Dionys because it was the first town occupied by King Davers after he led the mercenaries to Great Greece. Early Amendorala citizens played an important role in the development of the entire Kingdom of Dionys. For example, Cornerus, Raphaás, Scomblas, Stromboli, Tritodmos, and Protesilaus all occupied an important position in the Senate.

Although Scombras, Cornerus, and Protecilaus have passed away one after another today, the Amendoralas were the earliest to enter the kingdom politics. In addition, Stromboli and other veterans also like to support Amendoralas's backwardness. In recent years, among those who have really devoted themselves to the kingdom politics since they were young and gradually promoted to elders, the Amendoralas accounted for a considerable proportion.

What is more noteworthy is that more than half of the mercenaries of that year settled in Amendolara, and many of them combined with Amendolara women and even adopted many orphans of Amendolara as adopted sons and daughters. Therefore, some military veterans can also be said to be the Amendolara people. Without conflicting interests, they will firmly support the proposal of Amendolara without the intention of Daphs.

In addition, because the Amendoralans joined Dionia first, they had a good relationship with the elders of other factions after long-term contact, especially the gentle Cornerus who had helped many people.

Therefore, these elders felt that they could not compete with the many powerful Amendorala faction, and voluntarily gave up in order to avoid offending the old man who protected him.

But Stromboli did not breathe a sigh of relief because he heard the etiquette officer shouting: "Master Weisba!"

This old guy! Stromboli looked at Weisba standing up not far away, and couldn't help but curse.

Since Weisba resigned from his position as rotating chairman, he has rarely attended the Senate meeting on the grounds of his old age and physical weakness. This is when he reappeared on the venue within half a year, and he obviously came prepared.

"I recommend Damabas. Although he is young among the elders, he has a considerable qualification in the political arena of Dionia. Shortly after his arrival in Italy, he was only 17 years old and has become a soldier commanded by His Majesty. He has made considerable achievements in the battle to capture Niutum and fight back Crotone. He has only had to retire from the army because of his injuries in the battle to capture Grutum and turn to administration...

We all know that before Cosica, Sardinia, southern Iberia and a small part of Etruscan belonged to the Kingdom, there were two main metal deposits in the Kingdom - the copper mine in Turiy and the iron mine in the western mountainous areas of Grummen Tum.

Damabas served as the head of the iron ore for five years, more than Phylloclas, and has rich experience in managing mines. In those years, under his management, the iron ore continued to provide the kingdom with enough iron ore and initially melted iron ingots, ensuring that our army soldiers could have a large number of cheap weapons and contribute to the expansion of the kingdom."

Speaking of this, Vesba coughed a few times and looked at Stromboli. His expression was calm, but his words were aggressive: "I think that to become a regional chief executive in Corsica, not only should he have the ability to manage the mines, but he also had strong ability to govern and assimilate foreign races! You should know that half of the city of Alenia are Phoenicians, and a small half of the territory north of Corsica is occupied by the Etruscans, so the new regional chief executive needs to be able to handle the relationship with our close neighbors and allies Etruscans.

Damabas served as the Chief Executive of Poseidonia for three years and the Chief Executive of Pompeii for three years, and the political achievements were recognized by the elders. The people of these two towns had a wide range of races and were close to the allies (the northeast of the Poseidonia Territory bordered the Abenirum territory in the Samone Mountains. When Damabas was just appointed as his Chief Executive, the Western Mediterranean War had just begun. Abenirum was just an allied state of Dionia, not the dominant territory). Damabas handled it well, so I think he was the best candidate for the Chief Executive of Corsica!”
