"I've heard of it." Sextus also sighed: "Tomb of the Romans! It is said that the name on this tombstone was given by King Davers, and Camillus's ashes were also buried inside. I think... Although this name is simple, this is exactly a compliment to them..."

After saying this, the two of them suddenly remained silent for a while. Sextus realized that he had said something wrong just now: praise these people who fought desperately, so what are the ones who took the initiative to surrender?

So, he hurriedly changed the topic: "Jupiter, Juno's temple was also burned down, it's a pity! If you want to build them again, you don't know when it will be!"

"Rebuild?!" Storo shook his head and turned his gaze to the clearing ground in front of him. There was a bit of pain and reluctance in his eyes, and a hint of hatred mixed with him. He said quietly: "There will no longer be the temples of Jubit, Juno, and Janus. I heard these Dionians say that they will build the Temple of Diana, the Temple of Hades and the Temple of Hera of the Dionians, Jupiter... I gave up Rome, and I think it won't take long for him to be given up by the Romans..."

Sextus looked surprised and looked at the clearings on the top of the mountain with a sad look, but said nothing more: The Temple of Diana was originally the temple that the Roman civilians loved to worship the most. During the period when he followed the army of Dionys, because the Dionys often spoke and kept praising Hades, he was also affected, thinking that this was a god with powerful divine power and great concern for mortals. After he came back, he heard from his father that Hades was also very popular among the Roman civilians.

As for Hera, he only knew that this was a Greek goddess in charge of marriage and family, and it would not be too bad.

"I heard... you will soon follow the army of Dionys to fight against the Carthaginians." Storo asked suddenly.

"You knew it so soon before you returned to Rome?" Sextus was a little surprised.

"I am currently in the city hall to assist the officials of Dionia. The current Roman Chief Executive Ascestes also specifically asked me about the weapons and equipment of our Roman militia, how much food rations are for a day, whether we can adapt to the boat ride, and how much weight we carry when marching... The question was very detailed, so I guess you might have to go south." Storlo said confidently.

Because the soldiers had returned and believed that the news of the expedition would spread soon, Sextus had nothing to hide. He said frankly: "King Davers has publicly promised not to put the Roman army into the difficult battle. However, after returning from victory this time, the soldiers received a lot of rewards, and some outstanding soldiers were promoted immediately, so many people told me that they were worried that they would not be able to get war after going south and would not be able to obtain more military achievements. I hope that I could take the initiative to fight at that time..."

Storo sighed: "Dionia is still very different from Rome. For the civilians, they have more opportunities to rise!"

"Why, are you moved?!" Sextus said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Just join the Roman Preparatory Team now."

"I have a lot of business now, I'm too busy, and the Town Hall probably won't let me go." Storo's complaint was a bit complacent: "And I'm also catching up on the time to get familiar with the laws of Dionia and preparing to pass their assessment and become a judge of this kingdom."

"May Diana bless you to succeed as soon as possible!" Sextus sincerely wished: "I hope that we will all enter the Senate of Dionia one day and fight for more rights for us Romans!"

After hearing this, Storo was refreshed and his face became more excited: "Let's work hard together!"

The two of them were full of confidence and looked at the Roman city at the foot of the mountain at the same time: the renovated Rome is also full of vitality, but it also has a different pattern from the past...

……………………………………

At noon on the second day, Davers held another banquet, but this time the guests were Latin allies and several Etruscan allies.

At the banquet, Davers once again emphasized the responsibilities and obligations that all allies should bear in the Dionysian League, and also solemnly promised that Dionys would never interfere in their internal affairs and would do their best to protect their territorial security.

Rome was completely destroyed, and these city-states dared not be half-hearted. The messengers rushed to express: They will absolutely comply with the Dionian alliance covenant!

Since then, a huge alliance system with Dionia as its leader, Latin city-states and southern Etruscan city-states as its subordinates, and Volsi and Hilniki as strong support has replaced Rome and stood tall in central Italy, shocking surrounding forces.

That night, Davers invited Asisters and Giorgris in the house where he temporarily lived.

"I heard that this is the residence of Comineneus Marugineensis, the largest clan leader of Rome. Although the residence is in a good location, the interior decoration is very ordinary. It can be seen that the Roman nobles do not advocate luxury." Davers took a sip of wine and said casually.

"Your Majesty, you underestimate Marugensis too much. He has several residences in the city, which is just one of them. He has a larger house outside the city, with more than 600 acres of land, and all of them are land along the river, with hundreds of slaves..." Yassistus briefly introduced the property situation of Marugensis.

Davers did not think so, but laughed: "It is precisely because these Roman nobles imposed heavy taxes that the anger of the Roman civilians has led to us to win the hearts of the Roman civilians more easily. They even applauded our decision to forcibly migrate these surrendered nobles. I really thank these nobles for this."

"Your Majesty, are you really ready to let these surrendered Roman noble soldiers follow you to Sicily?" Ascesters asked with concern.

"Yes." Davers restrained his smile and said seriously: "Even if the surrendered Roman army died due to the plague, there were still more than 7,000 soldiers left after the wounded soldiers who lost their combat effectiveness. This is a considerable force! I am afraid that after I led my army to leave Rome, they suddenly repent and were unwilling to leave Latinum with their families, and even launched a rebellion to destroy the new order that we had spent a lot of effort to establish here. This is always an unstable factor! And I used a larger army to protect them, so they did not dare to do anything randomly!"

"But they are not soldiers of the Roman reserve team after all. Those people have basically surrendered to the kingdom. They have resentment in their hearts. And this time they are going to Sicily again. Rome and Carthage are allies. If they collude..." Ascesters expressed his concerns.

Davers smiled slightly: "Don't worry, I have a way."

Because he always believed in Davers' ability, Asisters no longer persuaded him.

Davers looked at him and praised: "Assi, it has only been a few months since you became the chief executive of Rome. Rome has a stable political situation and good order. The various departments of the city hall have gradually achieved results in the governance of this city. The Roman people have gradually become recognized by Dionia and have begun to abide by the laws of the kingdom in an interesting way... The achievements you have made have exceeded my expectations!"

"Your Majesty." Ascestes said modestly: "There are still many problems with the governance of Rome. There are two most important problems. One is that the language is not clear, which reduces the efficiency of the execution of the orders; the other is that the conflict between the migrant citizens of the Dionians and the Roman civilians is also the reason for the increase in conflicts in the city of Rome during this period."

Davers said with a gentle head, "The language barrier and the contradiction between new and old citizens... These are the most common problems we encounter when conquering a new race. You have served in Niutum, Knapetia, Mesana, and Enona, and have excellent political achievements. I believe you have rich experience in this regard and will eventually be solved well. Moreover, Giogris will give you a lot of help."

"Ah! Me?" Giogris, who was quietly tasting food, was a little surprised when he heard this.

"This time, the Fifth Legion you led stayed in Rome, not only should you be ready to extinguish any possible riots and ensure the rule of the kingdom here-" Davers looked at him and said seriously: "Since the war here has just ended and the order has not been fully restored, the Ministry of Military Affairs cannot immediately send military training officers to avoid unrest when the citizens are gathered together. However, with the Fifth Legion as a guarantee, you can use the slack time after the autumn harvest to gather the citizens of Rome, Vière, Gabi, Kesrera, Fidena... and other towns to gather together the citizens of Rome, Vière, Gabi, Kesrera, Fidena... to conduct military training, try to mix the migrant citizens of the Dionian with the newly joined people of other races, so that they can gradually cultivate comradeship in strict training and intense ball games, and learn the simple Dionian language through frequent contact..."

"This is a good idea!" Yassitus interrupted excitedly, "Your Majesty, do you remember it?! At first, we and the Lucanian tribe warriors in Bagule mainly used this method to make them recognize us and finally fight side by side with us!"

"Yes, of course I remember." Davers said with emotion: "That's almost 20 years ago!"
