Chapter 50： negotiation

"Governor, really let the Greeks go like this?" The adjutant on the side asked unwillingly.

"Let's go?!" Tissa Funnis glanced at him: "This is the command of the king. I have followed his will and successfully drove the Greek barbarian into Du Keya! You think they will be better next. ?!"

Tisafunis licked the mountains in front of his fingers and said fiercely: "Steep narrow mountain roads, mountain forests with snakes and worms, and the ferocious Dukeya mountain people will swallow their courage! Even if they barely passed Du Keya In front, there is the army of Ortas waiting for them! Even if Ortas can't stop them, they will also encounter the Kalubias, the Kardans, the Macarons... let these barbarians Let's fight each other! I see how many people in Greece can return to Greece in the end?!"

He sneered and said: "We don't have to spend time and energy here. There are important things to do in Asia Minor. Withdrawal! Go back!" He shouted briefly, then dialed the horse and didn't want to see it. At the face of Ali Moss, with a slight expression, he subconsciously looked back at the rolling hills: the leader who captured the Greek mercenaries was already a great achievement. When everything went well, he had new ideas, which led to the death of Mitradat and Artauzus. The casualties of the soldiers reached more than 10,000, which greatly reduced their achievements. Next, I hope that the Greeks, as they think, will be completely annihilated in the mountains, and they will hate their hearts!

However, can you really do that?

..........................................

The mercenary arrived on the edge of the Dokaya Mountains on the second day and began camping. The next move was to see if Mariji had succeeded in the success of the Dukeya tribe.

Davers and other leaders sent Mariji to the mountain pass, accompanied by dozens of soldiers led by Hilos, who were driving several cars, loaded with armor from the mercenary Persian soldiers. Shields, spears, these are the weapons and equipment that the Dukya mountain people lack, and there are more than a dozen Dukeya people, mainly the slaves that Daves originally let Mercius intercepted from the Persian village. .

"Mariji, everything is up to you!" Daphus gave him a strong hug, and then whispered in his ear: "If things don't work, get out as soon as possible, Hilos will help you escape. Negotiations It doesn't matter, we can still be hard, and your safety is the most important thing."

Mariji stunned and looked at the other leaders behind Daves and immediately said: "Do not worry, with these weapons, and with those Dukeya, our negotiations have been half successful! I used to be with this tribe. Comoros has done many trades and he knows a lot about him. He has always been ambitious and tried his best to make his tribe strong and monopolize the trade route between Armenia, Dukova and Medea. So I have had battles with the surrounding tribes, and I believe that our proposal will make him very interested!"

"Hope is like this." Tima Song came forward, and the tone of life rushed: "You better hurry, don't forget, we can only wait for you here!"

Mariji glanced at him and didn't talk anymore.

Daves also ignored the mention of Ma Song, but went up to give Hilos a more powerful hug. For Helos, who is strongly demanding to go forward and persuade him for many times, Daves knows that his choice is right. Only this most powerful confidant as a follower will make Maliji fully believe that: in any case, Dave Sri Lanka will not give up easily.

Davers will be grateful in his heart and say to Hilos: "Peace back, brother!"

Hilos took a step back and solemnly performed a military ceremony.

Davers looked at them into the forest until the dense trees completely obscured them...

"It feels weird. We were driven by the Persians here, but we still have to rely on a Persian to help us out of danger." Kryno said strangely.

"Don't think so much, Kryano. We are all looking forward to this Persian success, isn't it?" Zantitipis said faintly.

"Perhaps this is a godly arrangement, they are happy to collide with this wonderful fate." Xenophon is full of expectations: "And now we only have to wait patiently."

"In addition to waiting, I have to prepare for the battle." Guest Thorpe reminded everyone. After that, he turned and went back to camp.

....................................

On this day, the mercenary leaders banned all soldiers from going out to prevent these looting and idle mercenaries from colliding with the Dukana mountain people, thus affecting their plans and also raising the army. Defend attacks from Dukeya or Persians.

But nothing happened this day. Occasionally, there are a few Du Ke Ya Shan people wearing short fur coats and red stripes on their faces. They hold short axes and bear bows and arrows, wandering around the camp.

The soldiers watched and commented.

Relative to the relaxed and freehand feelings of the soldiers, the leaders have been nervously worried about whether the plan can be accepted by the Dukeya people, especially Davers, who did not sleep well all night.

Until the early morning of the next day, Asistics broke into the big account and woke him up: "Mariji is back!"

Daves was excited and he was completely sleepy.

"The leader, Comoruo, the leader of the Dukeya tribe, has listened to my suggestion and is willing to form an alliance with us!" The scream of Mariji's excitement came from Assisi.

"Great!" Daves jumped up and put his hands on Marley's shoulders. He said happily: "You saved the entire mercenary, and all Greek soldiers would thank you!"

Mariji had a smile on his face, and then he showed a dilemma: "Silos did not come back because Comoros had to entertain them."

When Davers glimpsed, he heard the strange voice of Mariji, and his face was ugly and asked: "Hostage?"

Mariji busy explained: "Yes, for safety, because Comoros wants to personally discuss the alliance with the leaders!"

Davers’s face was slightly relieved and he asked urgently: “When is it? Where?”

"I originally wanted you to go to the cottage to negotiate, and I refused. I argued that it was threatened by his knife several times. After repeated arguments, it was set at the foot of the mountain in front of the mountain. The time is this afternoon." Mariji stressed the hardships of his negotiations.

"Today's afternoon... at the foot of the front..." Daves meditated, and then he said, "It seems that this Comoros wants to form an alliance is very urgent!"

"Yes, the leader!" Marji had a good face.

"What are you waiting for! Come with me to find the guests in the Thorpe!" After the doctor is striding out.

..........................................

In the afternoon, under the leadership of Mariji, Kerry Sophos, Kryano and Davers led 50 Spartan fighters to the foot of the mountain. In order to prevent the mistakes of the heads of Clearus from being overwhelmed by the net, the other mercenary leaders led the army in the mountain pass one foot away from the foot of the mountain.

"It's there." Marji's finger in front: There is a stump on the grass not far from the Greek soldier's round shield. The section is smoothed and smoothed, half a person high, and several wooden blocks are placed around it. There is a curved path next to the stake that extends up to the depths of the mountains...

"This Dukeya leader is a caring person." As the proponent of this plan, Davers must show confidence in it, so he first walked over, set aside the dust and fallen leaves on the wooden pier, and sat down.

Guest Sophos also sat down calmly.

Criano looked around and then sat down slowly.

Marigi stood directly beside Daves.

At this time, it is already late autumn. When it was previously marching in the Tigris River, the climate was warm. In the Du Keya mountain area, the weather turned cold, the grass began to be yellow, the mountain wind blew, the leaves continued to fall down, and the ground was covered with a thick layer.

Guest Thorpes looked up at the bare branches and said with concern: "We must pass this mountain as soon as possible, otherwise the winter will come, the mountains will be colder, and the soldiers will not have thick clothes to keep warm..."

The words of the guest Sophos reminded Davers that he had never thought about it in this regard.

When the three people of Sophos began to discuss how to cope with the arrival of winter, Du Keyashan people came: dozens of sturdy young men, and a strange old man.
