"About monitoring the implementation of peace treaty, land cedes and resettlement of Agris, because Agris' death was temporarily put on hold, I recommend you to the Council to take responsibility. I wonder if you are willing to go?" Agris said seriously.

"I do!" Phoebidas blurted out that he had nothing else to do except military training and attending the King's funeral during this period. He was inevitably disappointed when he saw others being dispatched overseas and performing important tasks. Now, Agsilous put such a fat man in front of him, so how could he not be moved and grateful!

"Thank you very much for your trust in me, King Agsilous! It is Zeus's gift to Sparta when you become our king!!"

Agsilous smiled when he heard the flattery of Phoebidas, a young Spartan generation, who was quite talented.

…………………………………………………………

After Agsilous and Phoebedas left, there were only a dozen people in the cafeteria. A young man with linen on his head appeared sneakily from behind the corridor column, looking at Agsilous's back full of hatred.

He hurried to get his own meal, and the chef who distributed the food actually joked: "Leotizides, how do you dress like this, like a woman."

A Piriasi dared to make fun of him. If Leotizides had been in the past, he would have beaten him angrily, and might even cut off his hands and feet. At this time, the son of the former king had no intention of controversy. He found a corner, sat down, chewing bread, and for some reason, tears rolled in his eyes: the failure of the election for the throne made him a joke of Sparta, while his uncle who usurped the throne left his father.

Half of the property he had left was given to those tribes who had difficulty living, and thus gained the support of the royal family. While praising Agsilus's kindness, some people proposed to drive him and his mother out of Sparta, because, 'He and his mother were not Spartans, but became a shame for Sparta's.' Although the Elders' Council refuted this absurd proposal, the Spartans' eyes looked at Leothisdes more and more despised.

"What mistake did I make?! The goddess of fate punish me like this?! To prove myself, I participated in the "Agoge" (the cruel military training conducted by the Spartan boys since childhood) since I was a child, and I always performed well in every training. I was always desperately at the forefront in every battle. My debate always left my peers speechless, and my articles were written better than them, but why?! Why?! They couldn't see these, but they always used these rumors to humiliate my mother and my mother!! Damn Agsilous! Damn Elder Council! Damn... Akith, if you weren't bad to your mother, how could so many rumors have emerged!..." In the end, Leothis actually began to blame his dead father: "I can't bear such humiliation anymore! I want to take my mother away from this disgusting place! I want to leave Sparta!!..."

Leotizides finally made up his mind, and his pace became vigorous and powerful again. When he was about to reach his destination, he saw many people surrounding his doorstep. They all shook their heads and sighed, with a solemn expression, and a feeling of uneasiness rose from his heart.

"Leotizides!" A tribe member who had a good relationship usually said sadly when he saw him: "Your mother... committed suicide..."

……………………………………………………………………

Diopantus's troops plundered on the territory of Silitung, and the defenders of Silitung were forced to leave the city to meet the enemy, while the Locres retreated early.

By the next day, the Rocky people appeared again.

When the Silitine defenders chased the coast like yesterday, they found nearly two thousand Lockri soldiers waiting for battle.

The Silitine defenders, who had been pursuing all the way, quickly retreated. Under the pursuit of the Locre cavalry, the Silitines suffered hundreds of casualties, hid in the city, and could not defend them, and sent people to seek help from Crotone's army in Corenia.

The Crotones, as the leader of the alliance, had to send 3,000 people to aid the Cilitun, but the Locres retreated from the sea again.

Just as Crotone's reinforcements were hesitating whether to continue staying in Silitung or returning to Coulenia, 3,000 Locre, Medema, and Hibernian allied forces marched along the west coast, crossed the Lala River, and entered Trina.

The Trinas, who had learned lessons from Cilitun, dared not come out rashly, but asked Crotone for help.

Crotone's reinforcements had just left Silitine and shortly after entering Trina, the Locres landed on the coast of Silitine again.

Crotone's army was transferred back and forth, but he could not touch a single hair of the Locre, and he was so angry that he had nowhere to vent.

Silitin and Trina were also miserable. The farmland that had just been sown was destroyed and the people's war-weariness began to rise.

At this time, the Crotones finally figured out that the more than 20 warships that suddenly appeared during the naval war were not secretly manufactured by Locre this year, but were aided by the Syracuse people.

This news made the Crotone messenger panic...

……………………………………………………………………

During this period, Davers, who returned to Turiyi, was not only responsible for the alliance affairs, but also stayed at home to accompany his wife, took care of his newborn children, educated his adopted children, and lived a fulfilling and happy life. Even though Crotone's messenger came to Turiyi and asked Dionia for help, it did not cause any anxiety for him, because Hilos and Yassites quickly forced the Locre people who invaded Crotone's territory.

For this reason, the senators of the Senate also praised Davers for choosing the right executive of Asprostum.

In his letter to Hilos and Ascestes, Davers praised them for their decisive and correct measures in such a complex situation, and encouraged them to act boldly when the situation is critical, and not delay the opportunity because they are too concerned about their feelings and waiting for the orders of the Senate.

Hilos's excellent performance also made Davers completely relieved and devoted more energy to the immigration resettlement work of Asprestum and Crimesa.

But at this moment, he received news from Alistilas that "the envoy of Crotone, the envoy of Cialites, the envoy of Terrena, and the envoy of Corenia went north together". In connection with the situation of the war between Crotone and Locre that Alistilas reported to him in the past few days, the purpose of these city-state envoys to come to Turiyi was obvious.

Davers' first thought: This is a rare opportunity to expand Dionia's strength and influence. In comparison, fighting with Locre is not unacceptable.

But then, he began to hesitate again: thanks to Alistiras from Katanai's "extraordinary attention" to Syracuse, he also learned the truth about the failure of the Crotone Navy War. Syracuse was the real alliance of Locre, and in this war he also sent reinforcements. If Davers wants to fight Locre, he will inevitably offend Syracuse. Is it worth it?

Davers had to consider this carefully.

In his previous life, he didn't know much about the history of Syracuse. He only knew that Archimedes and Syracuse were one of the culprits who caused the First Carthage War. The Romans easily crushed Syracuse. It seemed that Syracuse's strength was not worth mentioning, but you should know that the Romans used the power of the entire Italy to attack Syracuse in a period of decline.

When Davers traveled to this era of the Mediterranean world, he felt the awe of the Greek city-state of Italy for the Sicily great state of Syracuse. Decades ago, Syracuse defeated Carthage and dominated Sicily and Greece. Now it seems that it has begun to regain its former glory and has a tendency to unify the Greek city-state of Sicily. Although Sicily is just an island, its land is fertile and it is a famous wheat production area in the Western Mediterranean (mainly

It was because of volcanic ash), and the Greeks colonized a large number of people here and developed Sicily very early. In addition, Sicily is located in the near center of the Mediterranean, and became an important hub for the circulation of trade and circulation in the East and West Mediterraneans. Therefore, Sicily commerce and agriculture are relatively developed. Just looking at Siracuse, if it only occupies the southeast of Sicily, it can be imagined that its huge potential for war is not comparable to that of Dionia, who was still in its infancy.

However, Davers is not a frog in the well, and he is ignorant and unable to see the potential dangers. On the contrary, the history of his previous life was full of countless examples, as well as political, economic, geopolitical and terrain theory, etc., which told him that no matter how Dionya avoided it, once Syracuse really defeated Carthage and unify the Greek city-state of Sicily, then the rapidly rising Dionya will inevitably attract its attention and become its hindrance to its expansion, or even its next target. It is better to take advantage of Syracuse being trapped in the war quagmire with Carthage and seize the time to strengthen itself so that it can have the strength to fight Syracuse in the future.

So after careful thinking, Davers finally made a decision and convinced the Senate.

Sisprotis was Crotone's envoy. Because he accompanied Lycius to successfully reach a truce with Dionia and signed an alliance treaty, then "persuaded" the Dionian defenders of Asprostum to send troops to help Crotone and forced the Locres to retreat. Therefore, almost everyone in the Crotone Council (except Lycius) unanimously elected him as an envoy. For the first time, he was valued so much by the members of Crotone's congress. The other three city-state envoys who accompanied him also followed him along the way. Sisprotis was inevitably a little arrogant.

Entering the city of Turiyi gives the messengers the feeling that this newly built city is not as prosperous and vast as the Crotone city, but it is no longer crowded and hustle and bustle.
