Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece
Chapter 46: Mountain battle
On the second day of the march, Davers rode on the horse, and the spring breeze was full of enthusiasm. He was full of enthusiasm last night with Clithista: Clithista is not only beautiful, but also looks like the appearance. Sexy, snowy and smooth skin, the curves of the peaks and undulations make him love it, and her extremely flexible body makes him indulge in it, trying to vent the desire of this young and strong body accumulated for 19 years, and it has been lingering until late at night. If Oliver was not disguised for him outside, I am afraid that he would have been smashed by good people, so he also let go of the "crime" that Oliver eavesdropped outside.
When the passion passed, Clithista was lying in his arms, and when he was shy and expressed his willingness to be with him, Daves felt that the gap between him and the world seemed to be a lot smaller. With this concern, he also made him What is going on in the future? I have a little more thought: Davers is from a modern society and an adult. He knows that passion cannot last. Clithista was born into a noble family and served as a small aristocratic acolyte and enjoyed a luxurious life. Now, he is only a mercenary. An ordinary civilian in Greek society, even a citizen is not. He has no place to stay, wandering around, and it is okay for a short time. It is difficult for a long time to keep Christovia from abandoning... Of course This idea was buried in his heart. Now is not a time to ponder, because the primary problem at present is to return to Greece safely.
The appearance of the Persians destroyed his good mood.
This time, Tissa Funis changed his strategy, no longer attacking, but harassing. The Persians followed the mercenary and kept a safe distance. From time to time, another team of archers rushed up, shot a round of arrows and immediately looked away. The damage to the mercenaries is not great, but their nerves are always in a tight state, affecting the speed of marching, but also affecting morale.
In this regard, the leaders have no choice, the only thing they can do is to mix the stone throwers, archers and heavy infantry, so that when faced with the fast-moving Persian archers, they can force them not to be too arrogant.
At the same time, Greek mercenaries encountered other difficulties. As the distance to the mountains of Duquea is getting closer, the plains gradually become hills and the terrain becomes rugged. The huge square formation of the Greek army cannot be kept intact, especially when crossing the river and trekking narrow mountain roads. Fragmented. The Persian cavalry sneaked in and used bows and arrows to create greater chaos for the mercenaries.
After deliberation, the leaders had to withdraw the small mercenary teams that had joined the customer's Sophos from the avant-garde (because the Persian attacks have mainly come from the rear and the flank), forming four or five company companies. Each company has about 200 people and is placed on the inside of the flank and guards. Once there was a large gap in the formation, or when it was compressed because of the narrow terrain, they rushed out to form a new guard, blocking the charge of the Persian cavalry and providing a barrier for the archers and slingers that followed.
In this way, the mercenary tried to deal with the harassment of the Persian cavalry while marching. This situation lasted for four or five days. When the current mountain appeared continuously, the whole army was relieved because they all knew that the cavalry It is impossible to go up the mountain.
They panted for the rugged mountain road, turned over the first mountain, and came to the foot of the second mountain. The team stopped for rest because of exhaustion.
Most of the soldiers took off their armor, wiped the sweat, and sat down to rest; the battalions of the heavy camps also checked the injury and damage of the beasts and vehicles, and the whole army gathered in a narrow area between the two mountains, ready to go. After a while, resume your strength and continue marching.
The attack suddenly came, and countless bows and flying stones roared, and the mercenaries were caught off guard: the soldiers screamed, the women screamed, the beasts ran, and the whole team became a mess.
The first thing I came up with was the Thorpeth and his eight hundred Spartan fighters, because these Spartan fighters did not throw away their weapons and armor like other soldiers after going down the mountain, and they were often physically trained. Enough, when the guest Thorpe found that the attack came from the second mountain, he immediately decided to order: "Sparta, go forward!"
The Spartan warrior immediately followed him and lifted the shield to the top of the mountain.
The Persian light infantry had a very fast rate of fire, and the arrows that were dialed and swayed down the hill.
After the initial chaos, the mercenaries reacted very quickly. After all, they were war veterans. They quickly grabbed the round shield around them and hid themselves under the shield. Only the heavy-duty personnel, except the guards, are mostly slaves, or women who have been looted. They have no combat experience. Under the drive of fear, most people are not escaping, but are screaming and running, so they are in dense arrows. Next, there are many injuries.
At this time, Davers was in a hurry. In the past few days, in order to take care of the impact, he did not go to Clithista. Now the situation is urgent, I don’t know if she is safe.
"Yasis, inform the team members to form a shield wall, and move closer to the camp and the medical camp!" he shouted.
"Yes, the leader!"
In fact, without him, Filipinos, Capps, and Antonios have led the troops to hold the shield around their heads and form a shield to move toward the center.
Oliver and Matones also immediately rushed forward to protect Daves.
Daves yelled: "Maliji! Mariji, are you okay?!"
"I'm fine!" Marji shouted behind him.
"Come protect him, don't let him hurt!" Daves ordered.
Although Matonis looked down on the Persian, Daves’s command he always performed meticulously.
At this time, he was the captain of the escort. Under his orders, several people from Gio Gris caught up to protect Mariji.
Mariji stared at the back of Daves, and said nothing, his eyes were full of gratitude.
Davers innocently went to see the situation of Maliji. He was half-squatting and tried to look down from the shield to the direction of the camp. There was chaos.
He rushed to the center anxiously. When he saw the shield on the other side of the hospital, he was relieved. In order to avoid the suspicion, he first shouted: "Herps! Hulps!"
"I am here!" The voice of Hulps came from the shield: "We are all fine!"
When I heard it, Davers simply relaxed. At this time, Hilos came over and briefed him on the situation: the doctors and female slaves in the medical camp were safe and related to Christovia~www.wuxiaspot.com~ When the first wave of arrows fell, she They immediately greeted them to hide under the brakes, and Hilos then commanded more than 100 wounded soldiers to form a shield to protect the safety of most people.
Hilos responded quickly and calmly to Clystopia in the face of danger, greatly appreciating, and let Daves know another layer of this woman. Perhaps this is why only the little Cyrus's acolyte from Persia The reason for people to escape from looting.
The heavy camp was much worse. Melsis was not injured under the protection of the guards. There were many arrows among the slaves and the women, and the beasts also died several times. In the face of Mercy's crying face, Daves, who is used to life and death, did not send any man to protect these non-combatants who have been running around. Fortunately, the Persian attack did not last long, because the troops led by the guest Sophos had already rushed to the top of the mountain.
Of course, the Persians would not fight hard with the mercenaries, and they quickly retreated.
Kerry Thorpe left the Spartan warrior on the top of the mountain for defense.
After going down the mountain, Kerry Thorpe summoned the leaders to discuss the countermeasures. He said: "The Persians are light infantry. We can't catch them. Although they retreat, they are likely to be in the third and fourth. The mountain continues to attack us with bows and arrows. Our team is too big to be avoided."
Said to be deliberation, he actually thought about the countermeasures on the way back down the mountain: "I have just carefully surveyed the top of the mountain. These mountains are not high, the land is not large, you can send a unit, first from the next The right side of the mountain is going to the back, and then the soldiers who led me to lead the front. The Persians want to occupy another height and continue to attack us, and we will cut off the road."
Guest Thorpe used the branches to poke a sketch of the ground painting: "Then surround and kill them."
