Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece - Chapter 1298
[Chapter 247 Post-War Governance]
The pen that was writing quickly stopped, and Henipolis took a deep breath: erecting a statue in front of the administrative building is already a great honor. Since the establishment of Dionysus, only Merses has this honor. , and it was erected after his death; the rapid rise of Dionia in a few decades mainly relied on a strong military, and the star-studded generals were the pillars supporting this powerful force, but There has never been a name for a legion or a fleet after a person. If the First Fleet can finally be named successfully, Cykrian will undoubtedly be the first person in the Dionysian army. Even if he were to die immediately, perhaps he would be happy. Accept it…
While Henepolis was distracted, Davos’s words continued: “Appoint Midorades as interim Commander of the First Fleet, Stefankas as Commander of the Second Fleet during the war, and The commander of the 1st Squadron of the First Fleet, Lamarcas, has made outstanding achievements in battle. This time he assisted Secorian in stubbornly defending against the attack of the Persian fleet. He was specially appointed as the commander of the 3rd Fleet during the war. Fleet, continue to attack the Persian fleet, completely control the sea in the Eastern Mediterranean, ensure the transportation safety of each fleet, and provide assistance for the army to attack Persia!”
Henipolis kept writing, but he was thinking: He said that he was taking over temporarily, but It is to make Sekerian and the crew of the First Fleet feel better. I am afraid that His Majesty does not think that Sekerian can recover. Fortunately, the promotion of Lamarcas of the First Fleet should make the First Fleet’s The crew felt better.
“Write a letter to Alexis and ask him to inform the troops to prepare for the attack! Write to the chief executive of Naukrates and ask him to arrange the transport fleet and be ready to set off east at any time!”
Davos stared at
Looking at the ostriches running through the bushes in front of him, after a while, he turned around and looked down at Hernepolis, and said aloud: “Heni, are you ready, we’re going to Persia!”
Henipolis said excitedly immediately : “Your Majesty, I’ve been looking forward to this day for a long time. The most brilliant chapter in my biography is there!”
His left hand pointed to the east.
……………………………………………………
In March, after the news of the Greek coalition defeating the Persian Asian Minor army in Misia spread, it caused a huge shock to the people in western Asia Minor. Many towns that were in a wait-and-see state rioted one after another, drove out the local Persian garrison, and publicly announced their support for Dionia. .
While accepting their surrender, Leoticides demanded food supplies.
At the same time, after letting the troops rest for a while, he soon advanced to Frisia, the stronghold of the Persian army.
The Persian army of Asia Minor was originally an army that was put together temporarily. After suffering a fiasco, some regional troops with low morale refused to continue fighting, and some even led the remnants back to their areas without asking Phanabass for instructions.
Facing the rapid approach of the Greek coalition forces, Phanabazos, whose strength was drastically reduced,
did not try his best to defend himself. Instead, after some conspiracy by his colleagues, he arrested Jason in the name of a traitor.
Jason, who finally escaped back to Phrygia, was executed before he could defend himself. In his report to the Persian king, Phanabazos argued that he was hired by the Greeks who were only responsible for the battle with the Greek coalition. The army suddenly turned against each other, which was the main reason for the failure of the battle.
The Persian commanders and generals used Jason as a scapegoat and wanted to escape the guilt of their defeat, but they panicked the Greek mercenaries who returned from the defeat. Several mercenary officers called “General Jason to avenge” The rebellion was launched under the banner of the flag, although the accusation of the unreliable Greek mercenaries was confirmed, but it caused the situation in Phrygia to be completely out of control, and Fanabazos had to lead the remnants of the army to continue to retreat.
The Greek coalition successfully occupied Gerdium, the center of Phrygia, and Leoticides did not continue to pursue eastward and inland. Heading south, the troops pointed directly at Lydia, and encountered no effective resistance along the way. By the end of May, the Greek coalition forces quickly entered the area around the Lydian town of Sardes.
The Leoticid-style rapid march thwarted attempts by the Persian garrison in the area to divert the wealth of the area, and the powerful military force of the Greek coalition frightened the defenders of Thaddes, who voluntarily surrendered the city.
After the Greek allies occupied Thaddes, they did not continue their attack, but repaired the area, while Leoticides was waiting for the arrival of the men he had requested from King Davos.
At the beginning of June, Leoticides led the generals of the coalition and some officials of the former Lydia out of the city to meet the envoys of Dioria.
The Dionian messengers are not one, but a group of people.
The leader was an old man. Although he had gray hair and an old face, his expression was resolute and his gestures were quite majestic.
“Lord Prossius, I’m really sorry, I’m a little late!” Knowing Leoticides’ withdrawn character, the old man said after seeing him, “I picked up Leoticides more than two months ago. By His Majesty’s order, come to Asia Minor to take over the areas you have conquered. However, it took some time to wait for a group of officials selected by the Royal Palace Administration to set off here. We were planning to land at Irion, but we heard that You have captured Gerdium and are marching south, so we diverted to Eritrea (a seaside Greek city-state east of Chios, fell to Dionia after the Greek coalition defeated the Persian army), Hurry up and hurry along the way, although I encountered a little trouble, but I finally see you in time…”
After listening to Leoticides, he just said dryly: “It’s hard work, Asia Minor is indeed a vast territory, in Marching and fighting here is far more time-consuming than in Italy or Greece–”
Staff Officer Mukru said quickly: “Lord Kapus, we have long been looking forward to your arrival! With you in the rear, the Greek coalition will be completely gone. You can rest assured and boldly continue eastward without worrying about the future!”
Capps was originally a person who didn’t like to talk too much, but he has been the chief executive of the district for many years and has undergone a lot of changes. In addition, he has become older and has a more peaceful mentality. Facing such occasions, he is humble. “I’m new here and I’m completely unfamiliar with everything here. It takes a while to get acquainted, and I also need your help and support. But I can assure you that I and the officials behind me have come here from thousands of miles away. , not to enjoy, but to follow His Majesty’s instructions, do your best to ensure the stability of the conquered areas, and do your best to ensure your logistical supply, so that you can attack Persia with all your strength! Because defeating Persia is our common wish, you said Isn’t that right?” The
last question was what Capps said when he turned around to the administrators who followed him.
“Lord Capus is right, defeating Persia is the common wish of our Dionia and allies!” The officials responded in unison.
Leoticides showed a rare smile and said, “Lord Capus, please let me introduce you – this is the military commander of the Pioxia Alliance, Ipamironda.”
“But the commander The Bis coalition defeated the Spartan general Ipamironda in the Battle of Leuctra
? Dare to attack Persia was also inspired by your heroic deeds!”
“Ashamed! Ashamed! I was just a soldier who followed His Majesty back then. A bone in it.”
“…This is the Athenian general Ifikrates.”
“It was the famous Athenian general Ifikrates who pioneered light infantry tactics in Greece and defeated the Spartan army many times in the Corinthian War. Is it General Sis?! It’s an honor to meet you!”
“Lord Caps, you are so complimented! I heard that you already started using light infantry tactics to fight against the Persians when you fought in Persia. learned from the tactics of the Onian army.”
“Back then, it was His Majesty who forced us to start practicing light infantry tactics. We were not happy at first, but later we found that the effect was very good after we used it proficiently! You can abandon the inherent Greek military traditions, learn actively, and according to the actual situation in Greece, Creating a light infantry tactic unique to Athens is amazing!”
“…This
is—” “This one needs no introduction, I know Lu Ke, the chief general of the Arcadia Alliance. Medes! Four years ago, when I returned to the Senate to debrief, he happened to be visiting Turiyi, and we attended His Majesty’s banquet together.”
“Lord Capps, I happened to be listening to your debriefing in the Senate. I am very surprised! There are a large number of fierce and savage Gauls living in northern Italy. Lord Capps has served as the chief executive there for many years, not only keeping those areas stable, but also allowing those backward Gauls to learn actively The civilization of Greece has been actively integrated into Dionysus, which shows that Lord Capus has the ability!”
“Lord Lycomedes praised me too much, in Dionia, like me, I can integrate the local indigenous people into Dionysus! ”
There are many regional administrators in Asia, such as Lord Hiros in Thessaly and Lord Asisters in Egypt, all of whom have outstanding talents in this regard. I hope Hades will bless the people here with us It is a very good cooperation to jointly overthrow the tyranny of Persia and create a better future together!”
…
After everyone introduced each other, Mukru led everyone back to the city, Leoticides and Kapus walked in the most Front.
