Chapter 106: Bruti Shakes
Burgam quickly read the letter and then carefully said to Nikuru who had not yet recovered from calmness: "The letter says that some Bissinian survivors fled to Kosenza... Nikuru, you can go to Kosenza first to confirm whether this matter is true."
After saying that, he handed over the letter.
Nikuru looked at the papyrus handed over by Burgam, as if it was not paper, but burning fire. He hurriedly avoided it, sat back on his original position, his eyes blank: "What should I do? What should I do?"
Listening to Nikuru's helpless murmur, Pangalu and Bergam looked at each other, and their eyes were also filled with shock and confusion: I was celebrating victory just now, and I was confident about going out of the city and wanting to fight the Deonians! In a blink of an eye, this confidence and arrogance were shattered by this amazing news. What should we do?
They are also thinking painfully...
"I have to go back! I have to go back immediately! Take back my Bissinia and save my tribe!" Nikuru suddenly stood up and strode out.
When Pan Gailu heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Don't worry first. It's not clear what happened in Bisinia now. Let's send someone to reconnaissance first, and wait for news from Pi'anlun and others. When everyone has discussed it, it's not too late to act."
"It's not that Knapetiya was occupied, of course you don't have to worry! If you wait any longer, all my tribesmen in Bissinia will die!" Nikuru threw down this sentence without hesitation and left Pangairu's mansion without looking back.
"The great leader of Nikuru just said, it's not the time to wait." Bergam came over and said to Pangaru who was a little lost: "Bissinia fell, and our defense plan against Dioria has failed. What we are most worried about now is that the large army of Dioria came out of Bissinia, and we are all in danger! I must immediately lead the soldiers of Ambalia to quickly rush to Cosenza, go there to meet Pi'anlun, and then discuss what to do next."
"You are all leaving, what should the enemies here do?!" Pan Gailu said in panic.
"Didn't you see that we were all deceived by the Dionians!" Burgam said with some anger: "The enemies here are just the bait for the Dionians to attract us. Their real focus of the attack is in the direction of Bissinia!"
Burgam left and left. Pangaru stayed for a while and cursed a few times: "Damn cowards!..." I don't know if he was scolding the Dionians or the two big leaders.
………………………………………
In Vig City, the great leader of Cosenza, Pi'anlun, the leader Petalu, and the great leader of Vig City, Sedorum are discussing the withdrawal of troops.
It turned out that in addition to the first few attacks and captured a camp, the Dionians' offense gradually weakened due to the tenacious blockade of the Brutis, and they almost stopped attacking in recent days. Therefore, Sedorum became interested and suggested to Pi'anlun: "The big leader, judging from the current state of the Dionians' movement, their fighting spirit is weakening, and we can fully resist their next attack. Therefore, I suggest that only a small number of the Cosenza troops will be left to help defend the city of Vig. The main force can return to Cosenza first and become the reserve force for the entire war to cope with the attacks from other directions, and at the same time, it can greatly reduce the pressure on food supply..."
Indeed, tens of thousands of Kosenza soldiers were stationed in Vig City and had nothing to do most of the time. You should know that it was only in the past two years that the tribes of Bruti were united together. The conflicts and hatreds over the past few decades will not be eliminated so quickly. Moreover, the first time the two cities have had close contact for so long, conflicts and conflicts are inevitable. Therefore, Pi'anlun believes that Sedorum's proposal is acceptable, which will also help reduce friction.
After discussion, he finally decided: he led 8,000 soldiers back to Kosenza, and Petalu led 2,000 people to continue to assist the Vigs in defending the city.
Petalu is one of the members of the "Seven Elders Group", the highest authority of the Bruti Tribe Alliance, and is the youngest. Pialun has no son and no outstanding figure in the tribe. Moreover, as a grand leader of the tribe with high ambitions, Piantun has been working hard to unify the various tribes of Bruti. Therefore, his mind is not narrow-minded. He married his daughter to Petalu, the leader of the second largest tribe in Cosenza City, and tried his best to help and promote Petalu, regardless of his tribes and others.
The opposition of the great leader insisted on becoming one of the newly established elders of the tribal alliance, not only because Petalu was his son-in-law to enhance Kosenza's weight in the alliance elders' group, but also hoped that after his death, Petalu could use his son-in-law to truly make Kosenza the first and two major tribes merged together to become the most powerful tribe in the Bruti region. Then Petalu's leadership in the alliance will not be shaken and can also enable the tribal alliance to continue to develop continuously and stably.
Petalu readily accepted this decision, and he was willing to stay in Vig City for a longer time to deepen his understanding of Vig City and enhance his friendship with the Vig Heads. Although Nikuru and others despise Sedorum and secretly called him a "traitor and coward", Vig City's strength is not weak and worthy of Kosenza's win over.
The battle continued until now, and several leaders felt that Bruti was in good condition, and their previous concerns about the powerful troops of Dionia were greatly reduced, so several people had a good conversation until the messenger broke into the hall of convention in panic.
The amazing news of "The Fall of Bissinia" shocked everyone present.
Pi'anlun, who had always been calm, even showed strong suspicion of the news like Nikuru, until he confirmed the letter from the high priest Firotalu, and seemed unwilling to believe this fact.
He was like this, not to mention the rest of the hall, the whole hall was in a state of silence...
After a long time, Sedorum said bitterly: "We were deceived! The Dionians attacked Vig and Knapetia just to disperse our troops and divert our attention. Their real target should be Bissinia!"
As Pi'anlun, the leader of the Bruti Tribal Alliance, after the silence just now, he had adjusted his emotions. He suppressed the pain caused by this sudden blow and said loudly: "We still have hope! The main force of Dionia is sure here. There are nearly 10,000 Dionians in Knapetia, so there should not be many enemies in Bissinia. We should immediately mobilize the army and quickly seize Bissinia while the enemy has not yet gathered a large number of troops in Bissinia to quickly retake Bissinia!"
Sedorum also immediately said: "Even if Bissinia cannot be regained, at least the road from Bissinia to the Kosenza Plateau must be blocked!"
Pi'anlun looked at Sedorum. He felt that the great leader of Vig City was a little pessimistic, but at this time he obviously had no time to go too much to worry. He said to Petalu: "I will ride my horse first and rush back to Kosenza to urge other tribes that have just joined the alliance to provide as many soldiers as possible, and at the same time inform Nikuru and Bergam to lead troops back to Kosenza to meet. And you will lead 10,000 Kosenza warriors to rush back!"
"I understand, the big leader!" Petalu felt much more at ease after hearing Pi'anlun's arrangement.
"Elder Sedorum is sorry, you can only rely on yourself here!" Although the other big leaders were not used to it, Pi'anlun always insisted on calling them with the new position in the alliance.
"Don't worry, the big leader." Sedorum replied confidently: "Since Vig City is not the center of the attack of the Dionians, I have the confidence to defend here! But... when the great leader of Nikuru heard this news, he didn't know what he would do."
Sedorum's words reminded Pi'anlun, and his face changed: "You are right, I must set off immediately."
Pi'anlun and Petalu left one after another, and Sedorum was stunned.
Saru, who had been by the side, stepped forward and said, "Big leader, look... can we take back Bissinia?"
Sedorum sighed, "Who knows... the consul of Dionia made us all over. After winning Bissinia, wasn't he prepared?"
Saru opened his mouth and stammered: "You mean...you mean...we will lose?!"
Sedorum sighed again: "I'm afraid only Amara and Brutus will know this..."
…………………………………………………………
War broke out between the Dionia and the Brutis. More than half of the citizens of the city of Turiyi went to war. The city became a little depressed, and only the Temple of Hades was overcrowded. After the shock of the celebration ceremony and the unremitting publicity of the priest Priest Plessinas during this period, the people of Turiyi and Amendorala have already trusted very much in this great god who is known for his strict, cold, gloomy and terrible among the gods of Olympus.
There were people crawling throughout the hillside, praying, hoping that the Dionian army could defeat the Brutis as soon as possible and allow their loved ones to return safely.
Presinas leads the priests, priests, saints in the Temple of Hades... every day comforts the people who come to pray, and helps them with all their strength, providing drinking water, perch, and even doctors...
For the safety of Turiyi, the Senate decided to temporarily investigate pedestrians entering the city gate, and only citizens could enter and exit.
Compared to the desertedness in Turiyi, the port and market are still busy: trucks of grain, salted fish, meat, and weapons are continuously pulled out of the port, driven out of Turiyi, and then unified by Melsis. At the beginning of the war, part of these baggage was sent to the barracks west of the city (the place where the Second Legion was originally hidden). Most of them were sent to Laus through the mountains. A small part was shipped to Silitine through the port and then to Trina.
