v9 Chapter 80： meet

Looking at this place called the naval base by the Dionysians, it is not a military port understood by the Greeks at all, it is simply a town, but according to the captain of the Clippers: The base is all inhabited by Dionysians Navy crew and dependents ...

Xenophon couldn't help but think of some of the news of the Western Mediterranean War he had learned before: "In the several naval battles between Dionysia and Carthage, the number of warships dispatched by both sides was about four or five hundred ... … "He thought there was moisture in it before, and now it seems that this is probably true ...

At this time, Xenophon had realized that he had been making a mistake since yesterday: when he looked at Dionia with his eyes on the Greek city-state, he naturally felt that something was wrong, but in fact Dioni Ya is not an ordinary city-state, it is a kingdom, a country similar to Persia!

Although Xenophon adjusted his mentality, he continued to be shocked on the next trip.

The ship left the Grand Port of Tarantum and sailed into the "Turii Bay" named by the Dionysians, but in Xenophon's view, where this is a bay, it is a sea area, but this sea area All three sides are surrounded by Dionysia ’s land, and it has become a convenient route for trading between the coastal towns. Therefore, a group of Spartan messengers constantly saw the passenger ships flowing from all directions, as if they were They are in a prosperous port, but in fact they are on the vast sea, but the Dionysians completely turned this sea area into their inner sea.

When the passenger ships arrived at the mouth of the Krati River, they were even more surprised by the prosperity and hustle and bustle of the port. They were deterred by the huge size and large population of the city of Turui. The Bata people have also become uneasy, because even stupid people can realize that with such a prosperous trade and a large population, Dionia is fully capable of sending a large number of troops, giving Sparta, now in trouble, is in big trouble.

So everyone in the messenger group became a little bit heavy, and gradually no longer even speaking.

The passenger ship entered the port of Turijny. Officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Dionysia came to greet them, but instead of taking the messenger group to the Kingdom Hotel first, they took them directly to the royal palace, because King Daveus would immediately receive Spa Messenger.

Walking in the inner city block, Xenophon saw the dazzling colossus of Hades on the distant hills, making him feel like he was in the inner city of Athens, but in fact the two are still very different: Turri The inner city is obviously much quieter and tidier than Athens, and there are a lot of strange buildings, such as the rumored viaduct, huge waterwheel, sprinkler pool, triumphal arch representing the glory of Dionysia, not the same The arena, the uniquely shaped and profound library, the magnificent grand meeting hall ... let the eyes of the messenger group be overwhelmed.

Xenophon knew that Dionysia was less than 30 years old, but at the moment he had the illusion that the city of Turui has a deep and long cultural heritage.

In the end they came to the palace with the Dionysian flag flying high, Xenophon and another Spartan messenger (the Spartan elders and inspectors finally agreed to Agsilaus ’s proposal, but They only let Xenophon act as deputy envoy, and as the envoy is a Spartan general who has made a lot of warfare, so that he can monitor Xenophon and prevent him from doing wrong things, and at the same time minimize the criticism of the public) Under the guidance of the etiquette officer, he walked into the palace.

Because of what I saw and heard before, even the Spartan messenger, who is known for being overbearing and arrogant, is a little nervous at the moment, not to mention Xenophon. The question is: how to accomplish the task given to him by the Spartans, while at the same time making the powerful Dionysian without revenge?

"Your Majesty, the Spartan Messenger!"

"Please come in."

The voice was calm and heavy, and there was almost no familiarity ... Xenophon settled down, rearranged his clothes, and stepped into the hall.

In addition to the palace guards and the ministers of the main departments of the kingdom, there were also six former chairmen of the senate. They did not happen to be here, but they have been serving in the palace for several years because they are now called Minister of State ".

In the second year after Dionysia conquered Gaul, at a conference of senior citizens, a senior who had just been promoted suddenly made trouble, slamming that the current system of senior citizens is defective, and the rotating chairmen preside over the conference At the same time, they also participate in the administrative affairs of the Kingdom, which allows them to obtain more important information in advance, and use their rights to better help those close to them, which is unfair to other elders.

His words immediately caused an uproar in the senate, and the veterans who supported the rotating chairman accused him one after another, and the veterans who had long been dissatisfied with this had not been willing to help the veteran to refute, and cited a lot of In the past few years, Lee has been helped by the rotating chairman and won the election of the elders ...

The two sides had a fierce quarrel on this matter, which had not subsided for several days, and even had a tendency to expand. Finally, King Davos strongly intervened to restore the order to the senate, but it also carried out a Fanxin's reform: The rotating chairperson of the senate will be rotated by the veterans, no longer fixing a few people;

In addition to formulating and revising legal provisions, electing regional chief executives, and supervising the administrative performance of senior and middle officials, all administrative resolutions and foreign affairs of the Kingdom will no longer be submitted to the Senate for review and approval, but will be directly decided by the Kingdom ’s Administration ;

The Kingdom will set up the post of Minister of Political Affairs, with a total of six members. The term of office is the same as that of the ministers of all ministries and will assist the King in managing the Kingdom ’s administrative affairs. Upon expiry of his term of office, he may be selected by the Senate and approved by the king to take over ...

Through this storm of the Senate and reforming it, Daphes reduced the rights of the Senate, made the functions more unitary, and more rights were returned to the Kingdom Administration, making the administrative efficiency faster and more efficient.

The reason why the Senate has made such a big concession is that since Daveus was named "Hadis", in the Kingdom of unprecedented prestige, ordinary elders dare not confront it, but have the ability to organize everyone The rotating chairmen who were opposed were caught with painful feet and became the core of this turmoil. They were self-sufficient, and in addition, Daveus used the post of assistant minister to give them a way out, so in the end his plan to regain power was smooth. Was realized.

Xenophon certainly did not understand the political changes in the Kingdom of Dionia, nor did he pay attention to these ministers standing on both sides. Since entering the hall, his eyes have been looking at the man sitting on the throne high.

But he saw Daveus with the crown standing up, walked down the throne excitedly, strode to Xenophon, and gave him a strong hug.

Because the incident happened so quickly, the ministers and guards in the hall could not stop it at all, and heard Davies' hearty laughter: "Xenophon, Xenophon, I thought I would never see you again in this life, Unexpectedly, Hades blessed us, and we finally met again! "

Daveus' unexpected behavior was also beyond Xenophon's expectations, and he was a little touched in his heart. He immediately put aside what he had to say when meeting in advance, and said lamentably, "Yeah, since Byzantium 1 No, we have n’t seen each other for 27 years! "

"Your memory is good. Davos put his hands behind him, looked at him slightly, and asked with a smile:" Do you remember what I said then? "

Xenophon frowned for a moment and shook his head: "I don't remember."

Davos raised his eyebrows slightly, pointing around, and slowly said: "I said, 'I'm going to Great Greece, I'm going to build my own country, and I invite you to join, but you refused' ... … 27 years later, do you think what I said at that time has come true? "

"His Majesty King Dionia, you have created countless miracles when you were in Persia, so you can do anything amazing afterwards, and I take it for granted." Xenophon was not in a hurry Replied.

"Hahaha ..." Daveus smiled heartily again, he patted Xenophon's shoulder, and said meaningfully: "I haven't seen you for so many years, but I have become very talkative, because I have been talking for a long time. The reason why Spartan King Agassius stayed together? "

"Because everything I saw in Dionysia, I had to be in awe!" Xenophon said sincerely.

Daveus stared at him, condensed his smile, and said positively: "Every time I look at the" Long March ~ www.novelhall.com "you wrote, I will remember the difficult time we shared in Persian suffering. In the past, our friendship should not fade away with the passage of time, just like Dionysia will always treat friends sincerely, even if he is strong. So these years, I specially asked the messenger to send you invitations to invite you Coming to Dionysia to participate in the academic conference allows us to get together well, but we have never been able to ...

"..." Xenophon felt guilty in his heart, and the silence did not respond.

"It seems that you haven't had a great time in Sparta!" Daveus said half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"That's wrong!" Someone beside him immediately retorted loudly: "Xenophon is highly respected in Sparta, otherwise this time he will not be allowed to act as a messenger to you, Dionia!"

Davies' eyes immediately became sharp, and he stabbed the man in a big red cloak and his hair braided into a thick braid. Shen Sheng asked, "Who are you?"

"The Spartan citizen Gusyrus was appointed by the Council of Elders to accompany Xenophon to Dionysia." The man replied loudly without avoiding Davies' sharp eyes.
