Chapter 318 Winning over Bisignia
Drakes just chuckled, this time the Second Legion is no longer the follower of the First Legion, he is very proud.

Davos patted him hard on the shoulder and asked: "Where is the hero who crossed the Craty River?"

"He was injured while crossing the river. He is receiving treatment from doctors in the city and cannot go out for the time being." Dracos answered.

"Injured! Is it serious?!" Davos asked with concern.

"I heard from the doctor that a few ribs were broken on the left side, the lungs were damaged, and there were some external injuries, but he will recover after a period of rest."

"Without him, there would be no victory for us today! We must take good care of him!" Davos warned seriously.

"Don't worry, sir. We will take good care of him!"

Davos nodded and wanted to say something when he saw a large group of people walking towards him not far away. He immediately smiled and strode towards the oldest Bissinian: "Yes. Leader Bajilipi?!"

Bajilipi hurriedly bent down, ready to perform the supreme courtesy of Bruti: "Bajilipi, the leader of Bixiniapega tribe, pays his respects to Lord Consul Daves!"

Davos hurriedly stopped and said enthusiastically: "Thank you! Without your help, Bithynia would not have restored peace so quickly! The people of Dionia and Bithynia should thank you! Because of your Decisive and selfless, they will not have another relative die in vain!..."

What Davos said actually made the white-haired old man excited. You must know that many Bixinians have called him a "traitor" in the past few days. You can imagine the frustration in his heart.At this moment, the young man in front of him gave him a feeling of "it's rare to find a close friend".

"Because of your merits, through my proposal, the Dionia Senate convened an emergency meeting, and with a majority vote in the election, you will become a member of the Dionia Senate, just like Lucania's Like Vesba and Hermon, he has become a respected elder in the entire alliance of Dionia, I wonder if you are willing to accept it?"

After hearing what Davos said, the stable Bajilipi showed a shocked expression, but soon he answered without hesitation, as if he was afraid that Davos would go back on his word, because this was exactly what he was looking forward to: "I am willing! Thank you to the Senate for trusting me!"

Davos held his arms, laughed and said, "Great! We are a family from now on!"

Dracos, Adrianx and others congratulated Bagripi one after another.

Bajilipi showed a rare smile.

At this time, there was a coughing sound behind him, and he remembered what he had overlooked, and hurriedly turned around and said: "Master Davos, let me introduce to you, this is -"

"Chief Brim of Bithynia!" Before he could finish speaking, Daves had already saluted him first. On the way, he had already learned in detail about the situation of several leading figures in Bithynia.At this moment, he said enthusiastically: "It was with your help that Dracos and the others defended the fortress! Likewise, the Dionia Senate invites you to join the Senate in order to appreciate everything you have done!"

Brim was in a daze after listening to Baguilipi's translation.Before, when he saw Cosenza's army withdrawing from the fortress, he understood that Bithynia would no longer belong to Bruti, but suddenly belonged to an alliance mainly composed of Greeks, which was a bit uncomfortable psychologically. acceptable.

"Speak, are you crazy about Huanxi?!" Bajilipi winked at him and gave him a push.

"I...I'm happy..." Breem muttered quietly.

Davos didn't take it seriously and laughed and said: "Senior Bream, take good care of your injuries! I still need your help in the next battle!"

As soon as Brim responded, Keleru squeezed forward. Before he could speak, Davos looked at him and said loudly: "I know you, Keleru, the hero of Bithynia! If you hadn't stood up, And how can the soldiers of Bisignia return home smoothly!"

After listening to Bajilippi's translation, Crelu did not expect that the Dionian consul who had never met him not only recognized himself, but also knew the deeds he had done, and he was both excited and proud.

"Originally, I have proposed to the Senate that you should also enter the Senate, but after all, you are too young and have never managed a tribe before. The elders of the Senate believe that you should first serve as a Dionia affairs official and accumulate a certain amount of experience. After gaining administrative experience, the elders of the Senate will be open to you!" Davers explained to him emphatically that he did have a proposal to the Senate, but it was just a show, and he himself did not want to let this happen now. If a young person enters the Senate, it will only lower the quality of the Senate elders and make people feel that the threshold of the Senate is too low.Although the quality of veteran players such as Amintas, Alpuensch, and Leders was not very high before, it was still the start-up stage and Davers needed a lot of support. The situation is different now.

Although Kereru was a little disappointed, as he was an ordinary member of the Bisinian Nikuru tribe not long ago, he became the leader of a tribe in the blink of an eye. He could not expect too much, so he said modestly: " Compared with the two leaders Baguilipi and Broome, I still know too little, and I will do my best to let the people adapt to our new home - Dionia."

Davos nodded. Although the leader was young, he was steady and measured. He sat in this position, and Davos was satisfied.

Before entering the city, Davers also went to the small river beach.

Amidst the roar of the Craty River, he listened to Dracos narrating the sneak attack on the city of Bithynia. Although the plan was drawn up by him, seeing the rushing river, he also felt the thrill of that night and couldn't help but be moved. Said: "Cyklian hopes to leave his name in the Hall of Valor. I think there is no problem at all! It is the bravery and fearlessness of him and another warrior that enable us to stand on this beach! I hope their deeds will continue It can inspire the citizens of Dionia to have the courage to contribute to the alliance, and the alliance will always remember those who have made contributions!”

"My lord, you are right!" Dracos felt the same.

Most of the Bissinians who followed Davos to the river beach only then knew the reason for the fall of the town and were filled with regret.Some people are even thinking: If one or two sentry towers had been built in front of the river beach, everything today would not have happened...

At this time, Davos turned around and said to Baguilipi and the others: "Turiyi and Bisignia are actually not too far apart, but a river separates them. Travel has become so difficult, and it has also made life difficult for the people of Bisignia... So, when this war is over, we will not only build a rope bridge here, but also build a real bridge, so that Bisignia can The city is no longer a poor and remote place, but a place where businessmen gather and pedestrians must pass through. The city of Bisignia will surely prosper! Because from Turii to the Cosenza Plateau, take Bisignia This road is the closest!”

These words of Davos made Baguilipi and other Bithynians who could understand Greek feel excited.

Returning to the city gate, he rejected the request to allow "the army to enter the city" and allowed the newly arrived First Legion, allied troops and legion reserve soldiers to expand and station the defensive camp in the east. However, tens of thousands of soldiers were fully armed. The army circled neatly in front of the city gate, still making the people of Bithynia fearful.

After entering the meeting hall of Bithynia City, Daves did not waste a moment to discuss the issue of Bithynia's ownership with the three Bithynia chiefs and a few tribal nobles. After half a day of discussion, they finally reached an agreement. protocol:
[-]. After Bithynia is merged into the Dionysian Union, the Senate will send an administrator to manage the administrative affairs of the city of Bithynia.

[-]. The jurisdiction over the ethnic groups and land to which each tribe belongs still belongs to each tribe, and the tribal leaders exercise management rights, and the city chief executive shall not interfere.

[-]. The chiefs must be responsible for paying land tax on time, and must also participate in military training regularly.

[-]. Since Bisignia was the earliest town in the Brutus area to be incorporated into Dionysia, each tribe can apply to the Senate to replace the fertile tribal territory.

[-]. Bisinians enjoy the same rights and obligations as Lucanians.At the same time, when they voluntarily request to leave the tribe and live independently, the tribal leaders shall not obstruct them.

……

After the agreement was reached, Baguilipi said hesitantly: "Lord Davos... I have a small request."

"Please tell me." Davos replied politely.

"As the lifelong consul of the most powerful city-state alliance in southern Italy, you have too few guards! Like our great leaders of Bruti, none of us has two, three hundred or even thousands of personal guards around him. Therefore, I hope that my nephew Rodom can become your bodyguard and protect your safety. At the same time, he can also be taught by you and learn how to become a qualified citizen of Dionia..."

Rodom?Davos remembered the energetic young man in the welcoming team before. He was about to respond. Others in the hall obviously realized the benefits of Bajilipi's proposal and shouted: "Sir Davos." , my son also wants to be your guard!"

"And my two sons!"

"There are five in our clan!"

……

The reason why the people in the hall were so excited was just because of the Bisignian tradition.When Nikuru was tyrannical, almost every family here had children sent to him as guards.Now as conquered people, they inevitably feel worried about gains and losses. They can get closer to the highest authority in Dionia and add more security to their families and tribes. Why not do it.

Davos understood their thoughts to some extent, but he did not respond immediately. He was thinking about another thing: according to the laws of Dionia, the maximum number of guards for the consul is one hundred people, and they have always been led by Martius. .
