On that day, the people ransacked Kunogorata's home like a mob: one of his sons was killed, another daughter committed suicide because she was defiled, many of her clansmen and slaves were injured, and most of the family's belongings were robbed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The next day, the heartbroken Kunogorata was unable to get off the ground due to his injuries, so he asked the slave to deliver a letter to the town hall expressing his willingness to resign as a general. However, the people were still angry, and at the same time, they were worried that Kunogorata would retaliate against them for their actions yesterday, so they continued to rally in front of the town hall to protest, demanding that a citizens' assembly be convened immediately, and General Nesses and others "reluctantly" agreed.

A citizens' assembly was quickly convened at noon, and the first item on the agenda was the people's proposal to expel the Kunogorata. Most citizens drew "Agree" on the pottery tablets, and the proposal was adopted. As a result, Kunogerata, who served as chief general for several years after the Peloponnesian War and helped Turiy, who beared the distinctly Athenian League label, avoid the liquidation of the new Greek overlord Sparta and his allies, was expelled from Turiyi by the Athenians' invention of the "Pottery Expulsion Law".

The second issue of the citizens' assembly was the re-election of the "Nine Generals", in which Neosis was elected chief general, Bulcos was elected general because he successfully hired the Davos expeditionary force, and Ansitanos was defeated because he defended Cuno Gorata during the siege of the town hall and was abandoned by the people.

When Kunogorata received the news at home, he was silent for a long time and let out a long sigh. Originally, according to the provisions of the "Pottery Expulsion Law", he could return to the city-state after ten years of absence, but he was determined to leave the sad city, and after obtaining the consent of his wife, children, and people, he began to pack his belongings that afternoon, and sold his house and land at a very low price, during which time Ansitanos only visited him once.

A day later, Kunogorata took his family, some of his followers, and nearly a hundred slaves loyal to him, carrying packages on their backs, and drove pack carts out of the city.

When the people of Turrii heard the news, they rushed one after another, but not to see them off, but to insult and vent their grievances that had not yet dissipated, and even threw sundries at Kunogorata and his family, and everyone who accompanied them bowed their heads in fear, only Kunogorata, who was lying in the carriage due to his injuries, faced countless angry eyes, and his expression was calm: a few years ago, he also expelled the Athenian citizens of Turrii in this way, and today he fell into this situation can be regarded as retribution!

He also thought of the Ahikuro Doyax family, who had been expelled due to the defeat in the war, and the Aborigines of Xubaris, who had been massively expelled and even killed shortly after the city was founded......

Is this democracy in Greece? Suddenly, he had a doubt, until his youngest son, Dika Oklat, beside him, woke him up: "Father, there is Neoses!" ”

He followed his son's finger and saw that Nesses was standing at the head of the city above the gate in front of him, looking down.

Kunogorata, who has been involved in politics for many years, knows who the real manipulator is when it happens. When they looked at each other at this moment, they didn't arouse more hatred in his heart.

He watched quietly until he went out of the city gate, and looked back at his mother who gave birth to him and raised him, and his face was sad.

He suddenly said in a deep voice: "Neonsis drove this beast of "public opinion" to deal with me, this time I underestimated him, but with his ability, I am afraid that it will not be possible to control this beast, sooner or later something will happen......"

Dika Oklat said as if he didn't understand: "Then will this bad guy be kicked out of Turii?!" ”

"Who knows? ......" Kunogorata turned around, stroked his son's head with one hand, looked at the unpredictable north, and said a little nervously: "Let's go, as we have agreed before, go to Amendolara first......"

…………………………

When Kunogorata and his party reached the Saraceno River, they saw Davers, the consul of Amendolara, leading several senators of the Senate and a group of guards waiting on the opposite bank.

When Kunogorata heard this, he hurriedly called the slaves to drive the carriage to the front of the procession.

Seeing the Kunogorata lying on the carriage, Davos said loudly, "Lord Kunogorata, I'm glad you chose to come to Amendora!" Upon hearing that you are coming, we, the Senate, after urgent consultations, have decided to grant you Amendora citizenship, are you willing to accept it? ”

After all, Kunogorata was only expelled from the city-state, but he was not stripped of his Turriyi citizenship, and he was able to return to Turii in ten years, and he only had to live in another state for ten years, and Amendolara may have done so on his own.

But when Kujograka heard this, his slightly uneasy state of mind finally regained his composure, and he immediately thanked Davers, and said from the bottom of his heart: "I am glad to be a citizen of the same state as Lord Davers!" ”

The tribesmen were also relieved, although Turii and Amendolara had just signed an alliance agreement, but with the poor relations between the two cities, they were really afraid that Amendolala would refuse to accept them.

In fact, it was precisely because of this problem that Davers did not welcome the Kunogolata with great fanfare, for fear of causing dissatisfaction among the old citizens. For the Kunogorata people, Davers has only been in contact with them twice, and he doesn't know much, but the only two contacts made him feel that the Kunogorata is not low in political ability, and from the information I have received, we know that during his tenure as the chief general, Turiyi can always maintain political stability and trade prosperity, which shows that his level of governance is good, but unfortunately due to his military talent, he lost the chief general, and was finally driven out of Turiyi, but this is in line with Davos's taste, and from the expulsion here, Davers vaguely sensed something, which is why he actively welcomed Kunogorata.

On the way to Amendolara, both sides avoided talking about Turii.

"There are still some empty houses in the city of Amendolara that can be lent to you and your family. Still, I recommend you buy it anyway because the price is not high. As for your people, they will have to rent for the time being, because they are not yet citizens of Amendolara. The treasurer, Mercis, didn't care that Kunogorata was a new guest, and gave him a serious introduction as if he were a brother who was settling accounts.

Kunograta expressed understanding and said, "I heard that the city-state recently passed an Immigration Law, I wonder if they are eligible? Can I apply to become an Amendolara citizen? ”

Has this matter begun to circulate in Turii? Davers was very happy to hear the news, and he immediately explained in detail: "Of course they can apply, this matter is in charge of the household registry officer Rafias, I think through the review, there should be no problem in registering, but according to the provisions of the "Immigration Law", it takes a long period of inspection, generally two years, to be familiar with the laws, customs and habits of Amendolara, and there is no violation of law and discipline, so that they can first become a reserve citizen, and then they can enjoy some of the rights of the city-state, and it will take two to three years, to become a full citizen......"

"That means it will take five to six years to become a full citizen of the city-state of Amendolara?!" Kunograta was a little surprised, after all, these people left Turiyi on his own initiative because of him, and he had to take responsibility for their future lives.

Davers, of course, heard that he had objections to this, and emphasized: "Because according to the new law of Amendolara, the official citizens of the city-state are to be given a 'share of land,' so they must not be careful!" ”

Kunograta thought he had misheard, and looked at Davers in surprise, only to see that he looked serious, not like a lie. You must know that giving citizens a 'share of land' is only a right when the city-state is first built, Turii's land is much larger than Amendorala's, and since its establishment, no 'land' has been allocated to new citizens, Amendolara has a much longer history of building a city than Turii, and the land is even less than Turii, where is the excess land to be distributed to new citizens?! And also listed this as a city-state bill?! Kunograta was eager to question Davers, but he thought that he was a newcomer, and there was no need to be honest with the young consul at the beginning, which would make people feel that they were not getting along with him, and he could inquire about these things slowly in the future. So, he changed the subject: "I have also heard that the slaves of your city-state can easily become freemen, and they can also have the opportunity to become citizens of the city-state. ”

"Yes, but they are in a special situation. If you want your slaves to become citizens of Amendolala, the conditions you have to meet will be difficult. Davers said truthfully.

"As long as I have the opportunity, I will do my best to make them citizens in return for their devotion to protect me and my family in Turiyi!" Kunograta finally said something about this matter, but his expression was calm, as if he had seen through the world.

This is very different from what Davers knows about Kunogorata, is this incident a rare lesson for him?! Some people grow in setbacks, while others give up on themselves in setbacks. If Kunogorata is the former, then it is really Amendolara's luck. Thinking of this, Davers sighed and said, "These slaves are really lucky to have you as their master!" ”

Kunogorata immediately responded: "Amendolara has you as an archon, and there has been an unprecedented change, which is also the luck of the city-state!" ”

"It's not okay if it doesn't change!" Davers was not modest, and said firmly: "In today's troubled times, if you don't change, you will die, and if you change, you will survive!" ”

After hearing this, Kunogorata pondered these words silently, until he walked to the foot of Amendolara Mountain, and saw those Lucanian slaves who were busy on the construction site, Kunogorata stopped, looked at it with a complicated expression for a while, and said in surprise: "I can't believe that these Lucanians are so obedient!" I'm afraid there are more than a thousand people here, and there are not many soldiers guarding them, so they are doing it so seriously! ”

"For the city-state did not cut off their way of life because of the crimes they had committed, but gave them hope!" Davers said meaningfully.

"Hope?!"

"Why do the Greeks and Lucarians have to kill to the death?! Why can't we live together peacefully in a city-state?! Seeing some welcome changes in Kunogorata, Davers decided to reveal something beforehand.

Davos's words exploded in Kunogorata's heart, and he suddenly looked at Davos with a look of disbelief on his face.
