The rule of the Caucasus nomads headed by Amulius over the Etruscans would certainly not be as effective as the rule of Loy over the Athenian Empire, able to effectively rule over half a million Etruscans.

After the Caucasus nomads conquered the Etruscans by force, they exercised indirect rule over the hundreds of large and small ethnic groups of the Etruscans, as long as the leaders of these ethnic groups surrendered and paid tribute to Amulius.

, Amulius would not interfere with the rule of these leaders over their respective ethnic groups.

Precisely because the Etruscan kings exercised indirect rule, in the history of another world, the Latins conquered by the Etruscans were able to establish the city of Rome and the Roman Empire.

If the Etruscan kings directly ruled the Latins, the Latin ethnic group would be assimilated and disappeared by the Etruscans.

If the Latins were assimilated and disappeared by the Etruscans, naturally the city of Rome and the Roman Empire would not appear.

Since the Latins who were once conquered by the Etruscans in history were able to establish the city of Rome and the Roman Empire, it proves that the Etruscan kings only ruled in name only over the ethnic groups they conquered.

The hundreds of ethnic groups of Etruscans could accept the rule of the Caucasus nomads, and of course they could also submit to the Athenian Empire.

After Roy led the Athenian army into the territory of the Etruscans, the leaders of various ethnic groups of the Etruscans took the initiative to send envoys to surrender to Roy.

As long as Roy does not deprive these ethnic leaders of their identity and power, it is entirely possible for Roy to become the new ruler of Tuscany without any effort.

Unfortunately, what Roy wanted was not to rule the Etruscans indirectly through the leaders of each ethnic group, but to rule all Etruscans with the laws and policies of the Athenian Empire.

Therefore, the leaders of each ethnic group sent envoys, which did not change Roy's decision to send soldiers to take over these ethnic groups.

If these group leaders do not resist, they can take their families and some belongings to the city of Athens and become rich.

If the leaders of these groups resisted with force, the Athenian soldiers would kill the men of the leader's family, confiscate all the property of the leader's family, and demote the women of the leader's family into slaves.

Five days later.

All resistance in Tuscany was suppressed, and Roy used 12,000 soldiers to control an area of ​​23,000 square kilometers and a population of more than 200,000 in Tuscany.

Caesar took 10,000 Sabine soldiers and controlled the Marche area covering an area of ​​10,000 square kilometers.

Although the Etruscan king Amulius was killed by Roy, he was not the only royal family.

While the Athenian army controlled Tuscany and the Marche region, Amulius's sister Aurora, the Etruscan princess, reassembled an army of 20,000 men.

After hearing the news, Roy led 4,000 Athenian soldiers and 4,000 horses from Tuscany into the Po River plain.

Milan.

This is the royal court established by the Caucasus nomads.

After Roy led an army of four thousand to the outskirts of Milan, he was surrounded from four directions by an army of twenty thousand commanded by the Etruscan princess Aurora.

Although there is a five-fold difference in the number of soldiers, and Aurora's soldiers have the will to fight to defend their homeland, Roy is not worried that he will lose this war.

The death of Amulius had already dealt a huge blow to the Caucasus nomads in the Po River plain.

As long as Roy can capture or kill their princess Aurora alive, they will completely lose the courage to resist.

Before the two armies fought, Aurora, wearing leather armor and holding a bronze war spear, came to Roy alone on a horse and said.

"Are you the leader of the Athenians? You have already taken away the territory in the southern part of the Po River Plain. Why are you still invading our Po River Plain? As long as you withdraw from the Po River Plain, I am willing to end this war and maintain peace with you Athenians.

.”

Roy looked at this beautiful girl with the same name as Aurora, the goddess of dawn in Roman mythology, and couldn't help but think of Harmonia and Hippolyta.

As a Caucasian, Aurora should be a beautiful girl with blond hair and blue eyes.

But Aurora seems to be of mixed race like Amulius, so not only does she not have blond hair and blue eyes, but she has black hair and black eyes like a Southern European Caucasian.

But compared with local girls, Aurora's skin is fairer and more beautiful.

Although the name Aurora belongs to the goddess of the dawn in Roman mythology, the ancient Romans did not worship the goddess of the dawn.

In other words, Aurora is not a local Roman god confused with Eos, but after the ancient Romans changed Eos' name to Aurora, they took Eos, the goddess of dawn in Greek mythology, as the Roman god.

Aurora, the mythical goddess of the dawn.

This fully armed female knight has her beautiful long black hair tied back in order to facilitate fighting.

The close-fitting leather armor highlighted her graceful figure, and the belt tied around her waist made her slender waist particularly attractive.

Roy looked at Aurora carefully, then returned his eyes to her delicate and beautiful face, and teased with a joking smile.

"Princess Aurora! If you really want to end the war, you should lead all the Etruscans to surrender to me. As long as all the ethnic groups in the Apennine Peninsula become subjects of the Athenian Empire, you can end the thousands of years of the Apennine Peninsula.

The coming ethnic war.”

"You killed my brother Amulius, and you want me to surrender to your Athenian Empire——"

Aurora stared at Roy with wide eyes angrily and said.

"Just because I want to avoid war does not mean that I am afraid of war. Now that I have five times as many soldiers as you, you must be the one who loses this war."

"Your brother Amlius has more than three times the number of soldiers as I do, so I don't need to tell you what will happen to him!"

Roy's words completely angered Aurora.

Aurora rode back to her own soldiers and immediately ordered her 20,000 troops to attack Roy's 4,000 troops from four directions at the same time.

If Roy's 4,000-strong army were to fight head-on against Aurora's 20,000-strong army, even if Roy could win, he would have to pay an astonishing sacrifice in the end.

In order to win this war with minimal sacrifice, while Aurora ordered her soldiers to attack, Roy also rode alone towards Aurora, who was protected by thousands of soldiers, preparing to capture the king first with Capture the Thief

way to win this war.

Seeing that Roy had made herself a target, Aurora asked her soldiers to protect her while praying to Jupiter and Minerva.

"Great Sun God Jupiter! Great Moon Goddess Minerva! Please help me win this war. If we Etruscans are conquered by the Athenians, you will also lose your status as patron saint.

.”

Following Aurora's prayer, Jupiter and Minerva descended on the battlefield in huge figures a thousand meters tall.

Seeing Roy approaching Aurora quickly, and Aurora's soldiers unable to stop Roy's progress, Jupiter stretched out his left hand and released a burst of divine power.

After Aurora's personal soldiers were enveloped by Jupiter's divine power, all of these personal soldiers increased their combat power, possessing the strength and speed of a heroic [Hundred Enemies].

After Roy was enveloped by Jupiter's divine power, the divine power in his body was completely suppressed by Jupiter's divine power, causing Roy's strength and speed to decline from the level of a demigod hero to the level of a great hero.
