Remember [Lewen] in a second. Alas, for you to read wonderfully.

As soon as these words came out, everyone felt a little depressed.

"This is the arrangement of the goddess of fate, who told us not to follow Davers in the first place!" Tormide sighed and said: "Davers is worthy of being a god, he has created such a big career in just half a year, it's not too late for us to follow him!" ”

Listening to Tolmid's words, Zanti Paris, who had already entered old age, looked up at the silent starry sky, and a sentimentality welled up in his heart: "I don't know how you feel? I'm old, I'm tired of wandering around and fighting, and I'm afraid that there will be no tomorrow after living today, so it's good to settle here......"

After saying this, everyone was a little silent.

"Okay, don't think about the future, think about how to get the other companions smoothly in the next time, and don't let them make trouble, otherwise we will be in trouble!" Timasong reminded everyone worriedly.

………………………

Timason's fears were fulfilled the next morning.

Before they could reach the port, they learned that a dozen outsiders were robbing the market, and they had clashed with the managers who had arrived and injured them, until the market patrol had all arrived (a whole fifty people, one detachment) and arrested them. Timasong rushed to see that it was indeed their mercenaries, and finally invited Agacia, paid money, and made guarantees, and the mercenaries who committed the crime were also fined a month's hard labor, and the matter was settled.

In order to prevent such a thing from happening again, Timasong simply rented a house at the port and squatted down.

Even so, the conflicts and disputes that occurred every day began to increase, most of which were related to these mercenaries, and even some of the senators put forward a proposal at the meeting to expel these mercenaries from the alliance and restore peace to the alliance, which was finally aborted under the opposition of Agacia, Antonios, Capus and others, but it also made Davers feel a little pressure.

Time flew by, and by the end of November, when the shipyard in Enanilus was completed, Davers and other veterans were present to congratulate and place an order for the shipyard: three three-deck oared warships.

The creation of the Dionian fleet as soon as possible was on the Senate's agenda to protect the Alliance's increasingly prosperous ports and maritime trade, while also changing the embarrassing fact that the Dionian Coalition had no fleet, or even its two allies.

At the beginning of December, the Great Hall of the Senate was completed, and the sad history of the senators who had to run to Amendora for important meetings came to an end.

At the same time, only the bridge over the Klatty River is still under construction on the Turiyi-Castelon Boulevard, and the land part has been completed. And the Atlético Turi Plaza is also about to be completed.

At the time of the good news from various construction sites, a small cargo ship with a large "∧" symbol embroidered on its sails entered the Gulf of Taranto in Great Greece.

Phoebidas, the Spartan general who had just passed his prime, took it for granted, and instructed his helmsman to sail straight toward the port of Turi'i without making any evasions.

In the Western Mediterranean, Sparta had the most dealings with Syracuse and therefore had some knowledge of Sicily. Most of the Spartans knew little about Greater Greece, except for the athletes from the Greater Greek city-states at the Games, they had no contact with anything else, and the real Spartan citizens could not do business, and there was no trade with the city-states of Greater Greece...... Therefore, after entering this sea area, Phoebidas looked at everything around him with great interest.

After looking at the harbor of Turiyi for a while, he said to Dorobises, a retinue at his side: "There are really a lot of merchant ships here, and I think they are about the same as Corinth. ”

Dorobises was a native of Perias. The Piriasians were also Rasiddimon, but they were not Spartan citizens, most of them lived on the border of Laconia, had personal freedom, and had the right to deal with local affairs, but they had no political rights in the Spartan city-states, and they were mainly engaged in commerce and trade that Spartan citizens could not engage in, but now because of the long war, the number of Spartan citizens has decreased, and they have begun to let these Piriasians join the army. Because of the different occupations he had previously held, Dorobises had a personality that was rarely active in Spartans, and he looked at the cradled Clatty estuary and deliberately asked: "Corinth's port is now in a depression of trade, but it is not as lively as here. Phoebeidas, you should ask me, 'How is it compared to Athens?' ’”

As soon as Athens was spoken, Phoebedas's face sank. Originally, Athens was defeated, and Lysander set up a "Council of Thirty" in Athens in an attempt to manipulate the political situation in Athens, although some Athenians rose up to resist, if Sparta fully supported this puppet council, the rebellious Athenians did not become a climate at all, but the elders led by King Paulias and Diopertis were at odds with Lessander, not only depriving Lysander of military command, but also promoting the Council of Elders to negotiate peace with the Athenian democrats. Eventually, the Athenian democrats overthrew the Council of Thirty and established a new democratic regime, and Athens, which had learned the hard way, became more flexible than before, trying to curry favor with Sparta while resuming post-war trade and agriculture by all means...... Only a few years later, Athenian trade began to flourish again.

Phoebidas snorted and stopped talking.

At this time, the Dionian patrol boat came up to meet him.

Phoebidas exclaimed, "I am the messenger of Sparta, and I want to see the consul of your alliance!" ”

The patrol ship did not dare to slack off, and immediately and quickly sailed back to the city of Turiyi.

Diplomatic matters such as Sparta's visit were, of course, handled by the Senate. It is impossible for more than 50 senators of the Senate to be in the council hall every day, because it is not every day that there are major events that need to be dealt with by the senators of the Senate collectively, and many of the senators have public offices, so Davers adopts a rotation system, that is, every five senators are on duty in the council hall for one day, and the other five are rotated the next day.

By the time the patrol ship rushed to the council chamber, Davers had already received an urgent report from Aristilas in his yard.

Spartan emissaries visit! Davers frowned, and immediately thought that Sparta might have come for Timazon and them.

Soon, the patrol ship returned to the sea, signaling the Spartan ships to follow it.

Before he came, Phoebidas didn't know much about Turiy, he didn't know that the city of Turiy and the port were not together, which was somewhat similar to Athens, but there was no wall to connect the port and the city, so in the event of a war, the port was easy to occupy, and Phoebas looked at everything in front of him from a military perspective.

"There is no such big river in Athens, and you see that the terrain is very flat, the soil should be very fertile, and the agriculture of Turiy should be very good!" Dorobises, the retinue, looked at it from an economic point of view.

After sailing for several miles, Phoebidas saw the towers on both sides of the river and the chains that hung in mid-air across the Kratti River. Phoebidas knew that once a foreign enemy's fleet broke through the estuary and sailed up the Shuo River, the barrage chain would be lowered and the passage of warships into the city would be blocked.

The patrol boat finally entered the pier on the north shore.

Phoebidas found that the docks, the trestle, and the houses on the shore were all neat and tidy, except for the pier on the very edge, which was scorched, so Dorobises asked the captain of the patrol ship curiously.

"It was reserved by our consul, Lord Davers, in all parts of the city, including the temples, and he wanted every citizen of us to see these ruins wherever we went, and to remind ourselves at all times that the city had been burned down by the invaders, and that we must remember this great shame, and not let Turiyi be bullied again, and that only victory can restore it to its former glory! Just the other day, we had repaired a ruin because we had acquired Niutum! ”

Looking at the captain's solemn and proud expression, Phoebidas was unimpressed on the surface, but was touched inwardly.

At this time, a team of guards approached.

Observing their mental outlook and every move, Phoebidas could see that this was a well-trained, highly disciplined group of soldiers, and certainly had a wealth of experience in actual combat. To be honest, he had never seen a patrol in his own city-state, except for the citizens of Sparta, who was still in good formation and ready to fight in his own city, and he was a little surprised.

The captain and patrol leader Oliver handed over and sailed away.

"Your soldiers must stay on board, please come with me to the Senate Chamber!" Oliver said to Phoebe Das solemnly: "The alliance has a rule that foreign soldiers are not allowed to enter the city!" ”

"They are Spartan warriors! They can come and go freely in and out of any Greek city-state! Phoebe Das said aloud and confidently. Although it is an exaggeration, many of the Greek city-states of the Spartans in the Eastern Mediterranean did have this privilege, so many of them were dissatisfied with it.

Oliver glanced at him and said disapprerovingly: "I know who you are, I don't care what you do in other city-states, but as long as you set foot on the land of the Dionian City-State Alliance, you must obey our laws!" ”

Phoebe Das was extremely annoyed, but Patrol Leader Oliver did not give in, with a determined look of "either you obey the rules of the Alliance, or you withdraw from the Alliance territory".

Eventually, Dorobises compromised and let the Spartan warriors change into civilian clothes before they were allowed to pass.

Holding his breath, Phoebidas entered the city of Turiyi. Before he arrived, he had heard that Turij had been burned down by the Crotone a few months earlier, but the city was barely visible: the streets were straight and wide, the new courtyards were spaced apart, and the rooftops were full of flowers. In the distance, two long elevated aqueducts stretch from two huge wheel-like devices on the banks of the river to the east and west city centers, where the water is led to several pools with children playing in the pools with fountains and statues for people to draw water and rest. The water continues to flow through the drain holes in several directions below the pool, along the ditches along the streets, in front of the homes of thousands of households, washing away the garbage and dust, making the whole city clean and tidy, and with the moisture of water, the whole city is full of vitality.
