In the afternoon, at a meeting of the Senate, Davers's proposal to make contact with Turiy and improve diplomatic relations was met with strong opposition from Elompori and other old civic senators. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Davers did not immediately put to a vote, but said in a serious tone: "My lords, I beg you to consider this proposal calmly and seriously, and do not let hatred only blind your wisdom!" You are the elite of the city-state, and you must create more lives for the people of the entire city-state and point the right direction for the prosperity of the city-state! Has befriending Turriyi improved the security of the city-state?! Friendship with Turii, has trade with the city-state improved?! Is it good to befriend Turiyi for the war between the city-state and Lucania?! The good and bad of friendship with Turiyi are clearly placed in front of you, as long as you are sincere for the sake of the city-state and for the sake of our children and grandchildren, I believe you will make the right choice! Remember, individuals can have grievances, but there are only eternal interests between the city-states! ”

Davers's words obviously touched Corneros and them somewhat, and most of them bowed their heads in contemplation and stopped talking.

At this time, Scombras stood up and said angrily, "Are we just forgetting what Turry has done to us, and instead smiling at them?!" Davers, you are not us, you have not tasted the tragic death of a wife and a child, of course you can easily talk about what to make friends with Turiyi here! ……”

"I'm just talking about improving relations with Turiyi, not about forgetting hatred, there is a saying in the East that 'it is not too late for citizens to take revenge.'" We use the Turii to strengthen ourselves, until one day we become strong enough for the Turii to swallow the bitter fruit of our hatred! Davers argued.

"I don't know w......hen," Scombras muttered, the dissatisfaction on his face dissipating a little.

The final result of the vote: except for one person who Strompori opposed, Scombras and Rafias abstained, and the rest of the senators voted in favor, and Davers's proposal passed without incident.

Davers immediately went into action, and he asked Asistes to send men into the port of Turiyi to bring a message to Burks: Amendolara was willing to reconcile with Turiyi.

The generals were overjoyed and overjoyed by the diplomatic stalemate, and in order to show their sincerity, they sent a delegation of envoys led by three generals, Kunograta, Neoses, and Ansitanos.

Out of reciprocity in diplomatic etiquette, Amendora also sent an envoy headed by the consul Davers, the city administrator Cornerus, the procurator Antonios, and the commercial official Marigi and the senator of the Senate Strombori (who himself strongly requested to participate), and at the same time made a special request: the Turi envoys must not cross the Saraceno River, and the two sides can hold talks on the south bank of the Saraceno River.

The Turiyi envoys, who had just left the city gates, received the news from the north, which was like a blow to the head, and their joy was immediately halved, and in desperation they agreed to the proposal.

In the morning, the two sides met on the banks of the Saraceno River.

With the exception of Kunogorata, the rest of the Turii were seeing Davos for the first time. As the hero who annihilated the Lucanian tribal alliance, the great benefactor who saved Turiyi, and now the lifelong consul of Amendolara, despite his young age, no one dared to underestimate him, on the contrary, in addition to respect, there was also a little fear.

And Kunogorata is even more deeply touched. After all, when they first met, he used to pat his shoulder and say words of concern and encouragement like an elder to a junior, and Davers seemed to be mild-tempered and even a little shy at that time, and of course Kunogorata did not take it seriously, and even wondered in his heart whether the expeditionary force was exaggerating. At this time, Davos was still as gentle and friendly as the first time they met, but Kunograta felt palpitations: a young man who had annihilated nearly 10,000 Luccarians with a single gesture, and at the same time made the people of Amendolara willingly elect him as a consul for life, and completely controlled the power of Amendolara, could still maintain such a seemingly humble attitude, wouldn't it be terrible!

Ansitanos didn't think much of it, he only thought about it: when the talks were over, he would have to ask Davers to tell them about their experience in Persia.

Under a large cowhide tent set up by the soldiers, the main representatives of the two sides sat down on two sides.

"Before we talk, allow me to say a few words." Kunograta stood up and said emotionally: "This time the invasion of the Lucanians has caused great disasters to both Turiyi and Amendolara! The city of Amendora was occupied, the population was taken prisoner, and most died in abuse; Nearly 13,000 citizens of Turriy died in the war, and all the families of the city mourned, and every day the whole city of Turriy was surrounded by weeping...... Here, on behalf of the generals and councils of Turii, I express my deep condolences to the people who died in the two cities......" After saying this, tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, and the Turiyi envoys also looked sad and hung their heads.

Davers didn't expect the Turii to make such a move, and couldn't help but be stunned, hesitating whether to put on a sad expression, and a sneer came from behind him: "If it weren't for your Turii's arrogant and unreasonable demands, would we Amendolara people suffer like this!" Don't act here, get down to business! ”

Strompori's voice broke the sad atmosphere created by Kunogorata, making the Turii people in the venue look a little embarrassed, but Kunogorata didn't hear it, continued to look at Davers, and said gratefully: "Fortunately, Lord Dafus, you led the LinkedIn mercenaries to repel the powerful Lucanians and save Turiyi and Amendolara!" You are a hero to the hearts of the Turii! The first few times I could not invite you to the Turriy Victory Celebration and accept the heartfelt gratitude of the people of Turii to you, I and the other generals and the council were all protested and criticized by the people! When he said this, Nesis and Ansitanos both nodded in agreement.

"I hope that after the talks, I can invite you to visit Turii! This is the expectation of the people of the whole city of Turii! Kunogorata extended an invitation with a sincere expression.

In the face of such hospitality, Davos really couldn't refuse immediately, but fortunately, Strombori sneered again behind him: "Lord Davos is now the lifelong consul of Amendolara, and his visit to other city-states is no longer his private affair, and it needs to be discussed and decided by the Senate!" ”

"Well, we await the decision of the Senate of Amendolara, but the people of Turii are going to blame us again." Kunogorata looked disappointed, and then he said: "Now Turiyi and Amendolara are actively rebuilding after the war, as long as Amendolala has any need, Turiyi is willing to help with all his might!" ”

As soon as Kunogorata finished speaking, Stromboli stood up and said loudly: "Amendolara doesn't need any help from Turiyi, because once he accepts it, he may pay a greater price for Turiyi next time!" ”

Kunogorata did not change his expression, did not look at Strompori, but said to Davers: "Who is in charge of Amendolara?" ”

Davers smiled and said, "Let's start talking." ”

When the members of the Amendolala envoy group heard this, they immediately straightened their bodies.

Kunograta saw it in his eyes, and his heart sank.

Ansitanos began by saying, "Ladies and gentlemen, we all know that Turii and Amendolara have been in alliance for forty-one years, and the last alliance agreement has not yet expired, so of course Turii and Amendolara should continue our previous alliance. ”

Strompori tried to speak again, but Cornerus immediately held him down and shook his head at him solemnly.

Strombori held his breath and spat on the ground.

"Amendolara also agreed to renew the alliance with the Turii," Antonios said, and the Turii people were beaming: "But there is one condition, without prejudice to the interests of Tarantum." That is, if there is a war between Tarantum and Turii, Amendolara will side with Tarantum. ”

As soon as Antonios finished speaking, the Turii envoys were in an uproar.

"You have broken your oath to the gods! Please keep in mind that the alliance agreement between Turiyi and Amendolara has not been terminated, so it is already a violation of the alliance agreement for you to contact and sign the agreement with Tarantum in private, and we do not intend to bring it up at this meeting for the time being, given our long-standing friendship with Amendolara. You think we are weak and deceitful, and you make such shameless demands! Nesis stood up and shouted angrily.

"Please remember Turii as well. When Turiyi broke his oath and did not send reinforcements to save the fallen Amendolara immediately, the former Amendolara had already died on the day it was occupied by the Lucanians! The newly-born Amendora people in front of you, if you say that you owe Turiyi before, I believe that the people of Amendora have paid it off in more than half a year of captivity, but what Turiyi owes Amendorala, have you paid it off?! In Amendolara's most difficult time, Tarantum gave Amendolara the greatest help! Therefore, Amendolara has nothing to repay but to dedicate our greatest sincerity! What did Turii give to Amendolara? Except for the fall of the city of Amendolara and the imprisonment of the people!! Davers's words pierced Neonsis speechless like a sharp dagger.

"I said a long time ago, don't make an alliance with these selfish Turiyi, they never think of anyone but themselves!" If it weren't for Davers, I wouldn't have met these bastards. They weren't satisfied, and I was happiest! They want to teach us a lesson, and I am even more glad that the spears of the citizens of Amendora have long been ready! ”
