As soon as he went downstairs, Hulmith felt a "knock" in his heart, and three patrolmen stood in the hotel lobby.

"He is the Syracuse man!" Someone next to him pointed at him loudly.

The fully armed patrolman walked forward and asked coldly: "Helmith, the Syracuse?"

"What do you want to do?!" Hulmith said loudly, "I am the messenger of Syracuse, and I want to see your consul!"

"Then I have to go with us even more!" The patrolman sneered and forced him out of the hotel.

This scene undoubtedly added topics to the people of Tuliyi who are still confused today...

"Father, I heard that Polyxis had violated the law of the alliance and was locked up!" Sostatus hurriedly ran into the living room.

Kunogorata glanced at him and said in a relaxed tone: "This incident has shocked the whole city. Do you know now? What have you done this day?"

"What else can I do? Of course I went to participate in military training. Today it was my turn, and I was exhausted!" Sostatus complained, lying on the wooden chair with his back and said lazily: "It's a pity that the big bathhouse has been closed, otherwise I would have come back later."

Kunogorata frowned, a little disgusted with his eldest son's lazy look, and said in a deep voice: "All young and middle-aged citizens in Dionia have to participate in military training, and I have never seen anyone as afraid of hardship and fatigue as you. Learn from your younger brother, not only do they seriously participate in the afternoon training at school, but also take the initiative to find someone to practice fighting when they come back!"

"So my hopes fall on my younger brother, and I... just want to be a rich man, eat delicious food, sleep with beautiful women, watch the game...." Sostatus said dismissively.

Kunogorata raised her white eyebrows and was about to speak, when the youngest son Dika Okrat, who was beside her, said loudly: "Brother, do you know that not only Polyxis was detained, but also the veterans such as N'anilus, Masisacus, Orifis, and Orixpus were arrested."

"Really?!" Sostatus stood up, leaned forward, and asked anxiously: "Old man, you analyzed it for me last time, saying, 'N'anilus, Massacus, Orifes, these people are likely to be targeting Polyxis, which will have an impact on Davers' power'. Why are they all finished now?!"

Kunogorata twitched a few times and snorted coldly for a moment: "What's so strange about this! The consul has been living in harmony with other senators all the time. Even if someone pointed at him directly in the Senate, he did not hold a grudge... After being with him like this for so long, I actually forgot how he, a lifelong consul, came from, wolf... I'm born to eat meat! I'm afraid that not only me, many people in the Senate will again feel the feeling of the beginning of the alliance... Hum..."

He said with emotion, and then sneered: "Pollyxis and other people not only violate the law, but also want to dream. I'm afraid Davers won't let them go easily this time!"

"Don't let them go! I heard that Polyxis colluded with Syracuse, and treason was a beheaded!" Dika Okrat's eyes flashed with hatred. He could never forget that day... The scene when the people of Turiyi turned into thugs and rushed into his house... And behind those thugs, there was Polyxis...

"Syracuse?! You mean Dionysius would have a relationship with Polyxius?!" Sostatus widened his eyes.

You should know that with the rise of Dionia, it is very close to Syracuse, two powerful states, one in the south and one in the north, but there is almost no diplomatic exchanges.

There is a story circulating in Great Greece that illustrates the delicate relationship between the two states: one day, in a city-state port of Great Greece, the merchants of Syracuse and the merchants of Dionys met together, and the two boasted about their own countries. The merchants of Syracuse said: "Dionia was not as big as the centuries of Syracuse's history. We Syracuse were the overlords of Great Greece and Sicily a hundred years ago, and we are still here!"

The merchant of Dionia retorted: "Don't be proud, our Dionia alliance has become so powerful in just five years. In another five years, it will definitely be twice as powerful as Syracuse!"

Of course, this is just a story compiled by the troublemaker. Syracuse and Dionia are like two beasts in the forest, carefully sticking to their territory, and both sides have never violated the river.

Now, Sostatus was inevitably surprised when he heard the news that "Dionis actually reached out to Dioria".

Kunogorata reached out and patted his young son's head. He knew what he was thinking. It was an eternal pain in the hearts of the whole family: "Did Polyxis and Syracuse collude? It will be determined by the alliance interrogation. Don't spread it randomly."

Kunogorata pondered for a while, and said with a serious expression: "If there is really... it would be a big trouble for Dionia!"

"Father, will there be a war?!" Sostatus and Deka Okrat asked in unison.

Looking at the excited eyes of the two sons, Kunogorata knew that the younger son was excited because he wanted to fight, and the eldest son was probably thinking about how to seize the opportunity and make a big profit in the market. He shook his head gently and said, "...Syracuse and our Dionia are both great states, and every move is related to the security and survival of Greek city-states in the Western Mediterranean. How can we easily conflict! I am afraid that it will only be diplomatic protests and negotiations..."

Dika Okrat sat back in a little frustrated, and Sostatus's eyes turned, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Sostatus, I heard your brother-in-law say a few days ago that you have gone to him and hope he can purchase a batch of your goods." Sostatus suddenly changed his mind.

Sostatus was shocked and said hurriedly: "I just made a small suggestion to him. Father, you also know that my brother-in-law is a serious person and it is impossible for him to agree."

In that year, a riot broke out in Turiy, and the Kunogorata family was expelled from Turiy, and the youngest daughter committed suicide by rape. The eldest daughter was also forcibly divorced by her husband's family. Later, she was alone at home. Perhaps this disaster had a deep blow to her, and she was reluctant to get married. Until the incident of "Deves worrying about Hilos's marriage" was known to Kunogorata, he became interested and made suggestions to Davers, and the two hit it off.

Under the urging of both sides, Kunogorata's eldest daughter actually asked to see Hilos first before she could decide whether to get married. As a matchmaker, Davers actually agreed to this "absurd" request. Hilos was for Davers and didn't care much about it.

As a result, when the two met, they actually saw each other. Especially after experiencing the betrayal of the first marriage, Kunogorata's daughter felt that Hilos was simple, honest and steady, and was a person worth entrusting for life, so she took the initiative to ask Kunogorata to contact Silos.

The couple finally got married, which furthered the relationship between Kunogorata and Davers.

After Hilos stepped down as Chief Executive of Asprostum and Commander of the Fourth Corps, Davers happened to catch up with the further reform and decentralization of the Military Affairs Department. The power to handle specific military affairs was originally concentrated on the military affairs officer, but now it is divided into three parts by Davers:

First, in terms of military and political aspects, military officer Philicius is responsible for the personnel appointment of the legion, the rotation of each unit, the patrol of the navy, the service of citizens, the statistics of the record, etc. Of course, important personnel appointments for the legion, such as the commander of the legion and the commander of the legion, must also be named and confirmed by Davers;

Second, in terms of military training, Hironimus, who stepped down from the Third Corps, is responsible for supervising the military training of citizens of each city, checking the training results, arranging instructors, etc.;

Third, in terms of military logistics, the Greek city-states of this era did not specifically arrange personnel to manage the military logistics. Since Davers gained a foothold in Amendorara, he sent Melsis to manage the military's logistics. However, with the expansion of the alliance and the increase of affairs, Melsis was too busy to manage the alliance's finances alone. Moreover, local government affairs and the army cannot be too involved, and must be separated. Therefore, officers need to be specially and professionally managed the military's logistics affairs. The first thing Davers thought of was Hilos. He not only had rich military experience, but also had administrative management experience, was steady and conscientious. He was also the captain of Davers, one of the most trusted people, and could take on great responsibilities.

"I don't allow you to harass your brother-in-law again! Especially in this special period, don't have any contact with him!" Kunogorata ordered with a serious expression. As an old politician, he had a premonition of the political storm that was about to set off.

Sostatus lowered his head and claimed that he was.

How could Kunogorata not understand his son who has always been disobedient? He immediately said: "You are not young anymore. Recently, several families have sent matchmakers to propose marriage to me. Don't go out in the next two days. Hurry up and settle your marriage!"

"Ah?!" Sostatus' eyes widened.

"That's great! I finally want to have a sister-in-law!" Dika Okrat jumped up happily.

In the study of Davers's mansion, Davers was talking to the farming officer Burkos.

"Bulcos, I don't agree with you to resign as a farming officer! You can be elected as a farming officer by the veterans for four consecutive years. It is their high recognition of your achievements in Dionys' agriculture. You must know that only if you are in the Ministry of Agriculture, our soldiers and I dare to leave the city-state with confidence and go out to fight, because we know that our farmland will not be desolate..." Davers sincerely persuaded.

Thank you Angelta, don’t wait for the sad rewards of separation! Your support is my greatest motivation for writing!!
