This angered the Selinus, they yelled angrily: "As long as the Carthaginians dare to leave, Serinus immediately surrendered to Dioria!"
Millefio hesitated when he heard the threat.
At the time of the dispute between the two sides, the Eighth Legionnaires who had landed had already arrived at the city of Sellinus.
Millefio, who heard the news on the city's head, saw the enemy wearing a black helmet, a neat army, and a morale. He immediately remembered that his sacred army was defeated by this Dionyrian army. The pursuit of the scene, can not help but feel chilly, he lacks confidence in whether he can lead this remnant army out of the city to defeat the enemy, or successfully avoid the enemy's attack and return smoothly to Lili.
After an urgent consultation with the same chilly team officials, Millefio decided to stay in the city and urgently sent a messenger to Lili to ask for help.
The messenger rushed to Lili, and reported to Monte Adeno that "the Daonian army is marching into Serinus and the path of the troops led by Millefio has been cut off" and told Serinnu Now that the military food is tight, I hope that Monte Adeno can send troops to rescue.
Monte Adeno, who has been slightly relieved from yesterday’s fiasco, did not say sarcasm as Millefio envisioned. Instead, he considered that the Senate may be punished for his defeat, for his own sake. He had to re-establish his relationship with Millefio, so he immediately made a rescue order, allowing the generals to quickly recruit the army, this time he will personally lead the army to Salinus rescue.
But this time, including the time spent in the middle, is enough for Dionysian to rush to Serinus, so Monte Adeno saw the waiting for the Dionyrian army outside the city, he Only a hard scalp to fight.
The military number blew, and the two sides did not take long to fight, and the low-powered Numibia soldiers quickly retreated. Although this time in a wide area, the ability of the Numidia cavalry has been played, but it does not affect the overall situation.
Monte Adeno was defeated by the reinforcements, and the emperor fled back to Lili, and the loss of the Dionysian army was slight, so that Millefio, who stood in the city to watch the battle, completely stopped the attack of the city.
And Leo Tiddides did not let the soldiers desperately pursue the defeat of Monte Adeno, and let the army build a camp outside the city of Serenus, it seems that this will have led to Carthage and Syracuse. The city's chief culprit for more than a decade of war was completely besieged.
During this period, Monte Adeno, who fled to Lili, did not give up his efforts. He sent a messenger to Palermos and ordered Hassdoba to lead the Iberian army to rescue Salinus.
Haas Drogba didn’t really listen to Monte Adeno’s orders, but now he heard that Carthage’s main force was defeated by the Diaonians in the case of occupying the strength of the army, and even ignored Monte Adeno. .
Poor Millefio looked at the Dionya camp outside the city day by day, day by day, and even stronger, even listening to the spies returning "Dyonia to build a super siege tower in the camp", his mood is naturally I am anxious every day.
Fortunately, Dionya’s blockade on the sea was not very strict. The Clippers sent by Serinus repeatedly escaped the enemy’s interception and went to Carthage for help.
A few days later, the Carthage Senate finally stopped the controversy and reached a resolution: to revoke the position of the commander of the Monte Adeno Carthage army and to return it to Carthage for trial. Appointed Governor of Iberia, Marco, as the new commander of the army. During his unsuccessful period, the veteran Pomirka has temporarily assumed his post and urgently handled the affairs of the Sicilian army.
Pomirka, he is not a member of Magonid, nor is he close to Hanno, but a neutralist belonging to the Senate. However, unlike Aesaraba, he has a good relationship with the other two factions. Perhaps it is for this reason that his election as the commander is also recognized by the majority of the veterans.
After being appointed, Pomirka immediately rushed to Lili俾 by boat and went to Montenegro to announce the resolution of the Senate. It was already expected that Monte Adeno had no result of being defeated by the guards. As a well-known family patriarch of Carthage, his rebellion and even escape will seriously affect the future of his loved ones and the family's reputation.
Pomirka personally sent Monte Adeno to the port.
Before getting on the boat, Monte Adeno, who was defeated, couldn’t help but remind: "...Dionia is different from the enemies we have encountered before, their soldiers are brave, their generals are also very cunning, and The combat effectiveness of our Numidiya troops is really worrying, so even if they have more troops than they are, they must be vigilant in combat!..."
Pomerka thanked him for his reminder.
In the end, Monte Adeno sighed: "The Senate has been worried for so long, and the leader of the aliens, Marco, has become the commander of the Carthaginian army! This is not a good thing for Carthage!"
Pomirka silently watched Monte Adeno on the passenger ship, then he turned back to Lili Licheng, and the next thing he had to do was to resolve the contradiction between the Carthage Fleet and the Iberian fleet. .
Since the Iberian fleet was raised by the Magoniide family itself, Marge did not want this fleet to be controlled by the Senate, so Admikar, the fleet of the Margoni’s family, was unwilling to The fleet was placed in the Carthage fleet and commanded by the commander of the fleet, Annobas.
In the name of the commander-in-chief, Pomirka invited Anlobas and Admiral to the Lilitun commander's office to solemnly announce the decision of the Senate to the two: the Iberian fleet accepted the command of the Carthage fleet. The command of Annobs is a prerequisite for agreeing that Margo will take over the command of the Carthage army.
Admiral looked at Ambalus and Ambalus gave him a friendly smile.
Admiralka was not confused by his smile. When he was in Iberia, he heard that Margo said that Annobas was not friendly to Magonid. Of course, he used to be close to the Magonid family in the Senate, so he would become the commander of the Carthage Navy and fight in the sea when he led the army to attack Syracuse more than two decades ago. The big ship defeated the main fleet of Syracuse led by Le Putines, but the army of Carthage suffered a fiasco in the city of Syracuse, and the troubled Himirko talked privately with Dionysius in order to survive. For the sake of confidentiality, Annobs was not informed. As a result, Himilko led the cronies to escape in a dozen boats, and the Carthage fleet led by Annobas was trapped in the big port of Syracuse, almost lost. Under the help of his subordinates, he took a Clipper and managed to escape his life. Since then, he hated the Magonid family and became a neutral.
In fact, it is precisely because of this that the Senate will continue to hand over the heavy responsibility of the commanding Carthage fleet to him in order to check and balance Ma Ge, who has mastered a powerful military force.
Although Admiral knew Marg's desire for the position of the commander of the Carthaginian army, he felt uneasy about the fact that the Iberian fleet had been placed under Annobas. However, the recent defeat of naval warfare has consumed a lot of hardships. He did not dare to oppose it directly. He then said: "This fleet was built by Ma Ge, and I can't make a decision. I must get the consent of Ma Ge. ""
Pomirka did not force, but immediately sent a messenger to Iberia to consult with Mako. During this time, he sent a messenger to Hasbrod, who was stationed in Palamos, hoping that this The young and promising generals were able to lead the army south and rescue the besieged Carthaginian army.
Pomerka’s humility was very close to Hass Druba’s appetite. He decided to lead the team almost immediately. Fortunately, Kisgo reminded him: “Repulsed the enemy and saved the friendly. Who is it? Perhaps the Senate will think that Pomirka can also command us as a commander, so you don’t need Ma Ge adults..."
Hasdruba obeyed the opinion, did not respond to Pomirka, and continued to lead the army to stay in Palemos and watch the war.
Pomirka has no way for it.
But a few days later, Margot’s reply came: he agreed with Pomilkad’s suggestion that the Iberian fleet listened to the command of the Carthage naval commander Annobas, but asked Annobas not to intervene in the fleet. management.
Thus, the Carthage Fleet and the Iberian fleet were unified under the arm of Annobs, bringing the total strength of the navy to about 540 ships, of which the main three-layer paddles of the combat forces were 432. .
At the same time, Pomirka’s mission to Annobas came: in view of the critical situation of SerinusLillie must deliver food and soldiers for emergency, requiring the Carthage fleet to be the fleet convoy.
In fact, during this time, the Dionyrian army has launched several attacks on the city of Serenus, and Millefio has sent the Clippers several times to ask for help, although the Carthage Senate has The first batch of 4,000 mobilized Carthage civic soldiers were transported to Lili, but in view of the current state of the Carthaginian army, Pomirka did not dare to lead the army from land rescue. He turned his attention to Dionys. The sea with relatively weak sub-military forces transports the reinforcements to Serenus through the sea, strengthens the defensive power of Serinus, uses it to drag the enemy, consumes the enemy's spirit, and waits for the arrival of the army. .
However, Annobas refused Pomirka's request several times before. The reason was that the command of the Iberian fleet had not been resolved, and it was impossible to cooperate on the battlefield, but it was easy to cause failure. And the strength of the Carthage fleet alone is not enough to match the fleet of Dionia.
Although the Carthage fleet has been docked at the city-state military ports on the western end of Sicily, Annobis has been paying attention to the movement of the Dionysian Sicilian fleet and has some understanding of the strength of its fleet. Of course, on the other hand, he is also urging Pomirka to solve the problem of the Iberian fleet as soon as possible. ()
