Chapter 32 A Blockbuster (Part 2)
"They may say, 'Great ancestors! It is your heroic deeds that have given us strength! It has inspired our confidence! It has allowed us to accomplish unprecedented great things!'"
"Will there be such a day?" Timasong murmured with a rapid breathing, clenched his fists.
The leaders were also tempted by Davers' assumptions and were immersed in it. But they did not know that in history, a Macedonian named Alexander decades later inspired his soldiers to attack the Persian Empire with the incident of the retreat of ten thousand people in Greece...
When the soldiers were immersed in the beautiful scenery made by Davers, Davers reached out to take a stick from Ascesters and changed the subject: "Soldiers, some people may ask, 'Davs, you said so well, but there is a key question. First, we must return to Greece safely."
Seeing that the soldiers were still listening with all their concentration, Davers continued, "I don't want to say much about the issue of combat. Because the leaders such as Keritops, Timasong, and everyone here have rich combat experience, most of you participated in the struggle against Athens and finally won the victory. This is not comparable to the Persians who enjoyed peace all year round."
Hearing this, Xenophon curled his lips.
"What I want to say is that in such a difficult situation, each of us is like a wooden stick in my hand-" Davers picked up the wooden stick and used light force to break it into two pieces. Then he broke another one: "It can be easily broken. But when they are all together-" Davers grabbed all the remaining wooden sticks and walked to a tall and strong re-passing soldier on the side of the platform, and asked: "Brother, what's your name?"
"Uberts." said the soldier.
"Can you break it by trying?"
The soldiers looked at Uberts intently, and saw that his face turned red and he tried his best to break a full wooden stick, but it was futile.
"Thank you brother!" Davers patted his shoulder and expressed his gratitude.
Uberts blushed and scratched his head embarrassedly.
"Soldiers, you all saw it. A single wooden stick, a young man as thin as me, can easily break it. But when they gather together, even the strongest warriors use all their strength to do nothing. What does this mean?"
Xenophon nodded. He now knew what Davers intended. Of course, he was not the only smart person. Some soldiers shouted loudly: "Unity! It is unity!..." After some soldiers reminded him, everyone also understood.
"That's right, it's unity!" By now, Davers has completely let go. He was full of energy and even changed his name: "Brothers, we come from various city-states in Greece. There are some small conflicts and small conflicts due to different customs and personalities. However, we are all Greeks of the same blood and species. Under the great goal of returning home safely and creating history, any problems within us should be melted away like the ice and snow in the sun! We must be united closely like our ancestors who resisted Persian invasion, not be shaken by Persian rumors, and leave our backs to our teammates to protect with confidence! We must not only unite spiritually, but also unite wisdom. Faced with the difficulties encountered on the way back, brothers, don't leave all the problems to the leaders to solve, you must take the initiative to find solutions. As long as we think of solutions together, no problem will be difficult for us!
Brothers, let us unite like a person! Then this person's power can be as powerful as Ares! Wisdom is as deep as Athena! Enemies and difficulties along the way will be easily crushed by us!" At this point, Davers raised his fists and shouted: "Brothers, please remember that as long as we unite, we can create miracles! Every step forward we are creating history! Let's fight side by side!!"
"Wow!!!..." The cheers from the audience were shocked and the earth was shaking for a long time.
"Davers! Davers!..." The audience shouted his name, and many people burst into tears excitedly. Some people even begged and shouted: "Say a few more words! Davers, say a few more words..."
As soon as Davers walked towards the wooden platform, the soldiers came over, and they lifted him up together, and then passed it down from the front to the back, as if he had returned victoriously.
This made Kriano, who was about to take office, stunned: the morale of the soldiers has been incited to this extent. Is it necessary for others to go up?
"He is better than any of us in terms of speech at least!" Zantiparis exclaimed sincerely.
"War is not about mouth, but ultimately, it has to be solved with a stinging gun shield!" Tima Song said unwillingly.
Looking at Davers who was thrown away in the distance, Xenophon said it was impossible not to be jealous, because Hironimus was not good at speaking, so Xenophon obtained the consent of Kerithops and was ready to play for the leader. He made careful preparations and wanted to show his talents well in front of the entire army, but in this situation...
Kerithops actually agreed with Timasong in his heart. The Spartans were always tired of the eloquent and eloquent, just as the Athenians hated the old-fashioned Spartans, but he had to admit that Davers' performance exceeded his imagination, not only achieved but also exceeded the purpose of inspiring the entire army. It seems that this young man was chosen as the leader not only by borrowing the title of a god, but also by his talents...
The squadron leader of Menon's military camp was also full of surprises. Seeing Davers being surrounded by soldiers from other military camps cheering, even Amintas, who had some objections to Davers's elected leader, could not help but say to Antonios: "Our new leader seems to be pretty good." You know, he used to call Davers "little guy".
Antonios smiled: Davers, Davers, you always surprise people!
...
Finally, Crithops went up again, announced that he would set the camp tomorrow and march northward, and informed the entire army of precautions that need to be paid attention to and prepared.
The Army General Assembly ends here.
The soldiers who dispersed around were still recalling Davers' speech with relish and praised: This "god favored man" is indeed well-deserved!
The soldiers of Davers' camp surrounded their new leader in amid praise, returned to the camp with his head held high, and then preached his deeds to the left-behind soldiers.
Davers finally got rid of the excited soldiers and returned to his original tent, and suddenly remembered that Menon's military tent was his new home.
When he walked to his new home, Melsis was standing at the door of the tent. He came up and said with a weird look: "Davers, someone is waiting for you."
"Who is it?"
"You will know when you go in." Melsis said nodding towards the military tent, his expression somewhat vulgar.
Davers curiously lifted the curtain, and there was a man, a woman, a tall and graceful woman standing in the center of the curtain...
Since Davers was reborn, he has seen Greek and Egyptian women of this era in the baggage camp of Mercis and the medical camp of Herps. There are quite beautiful women, but there is never a single woman. Just looking at her back can make him feel desire...
