Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

This time, I followed Meranthus to fight. I didn't expect it to be so smooth. I easily captured the city of Turui. Collebs also grabbed a lot of spoils. No wonder many people say that Melanius is the darling of the goddess of luck. . Moreover, he also heard that Crotone's City Hall was preparing to emigrate to the Sibari Plain, so he calculated: After returning to Crotone, he first realized the spoils, saved money with a wife, and then joined Crotone. The immigrant team, the land of the Dibari Plain is flatter and wider than the Croton Plain in Crotone, and should be able to share a small piece of land.

This night, Kolbus dreamed, but was awakened, opened his eyes and saw the comrades in the tent like a bee that had blown up the nest. He ran out madly, and he had been trampled on the door. A few feet.

"Look at it!" he groaned angrily.

"Enemy! Come out and fight!" The teammates shouted and rushed out of the tent.

"The enemy attack? Where are the enemies?" Krebs also had some troubles.

At this time, the screams of screams were passed into the ears. He was excited and stood up with his hands and barely stood up. There was a lot of wine to drink last night, and there was no water, and the stamina was great. He was dizzy, his body was uncontrollable, he almost fell, and he had no time to wear a helmet and armor. He grabbed the rifle from the ground and rushed out of the tent. He saw the well-dressed heavy infantry lined up close. The front of the line quickly approached them, and the two companions rushed up with the rifle, and they were quickly stabbed by the enemy. The tacit cooperation and concise fights completely awakened Krebs, and the fear immediately occupied him. All over the body, he threw the rifle and turned and ran.

"Crash! Leave here!" Collebs had a strong desire to survive, and while running to see the direction of the sun in the sky, he made up his mind to flee east, because the east is Castron City.

After running for a while, I saw some people coming to the front and shouting in horror: "There are enemies, run fast!..."

There are also enemies in the east? ! Collebs heard, panic, had to follow.

Next, he was like a headless fly, and there were more and more people around him. He even had a lot of beasts running around and hurting a lot of people, but he could not run out.

At this time, Kolbus's brain was flustered, and they understood that they were surrounded, and the encirclement was shrinking...

........................

The Dave's Legion Command is located behind the second battalion, between the camp of Krytina and the city of Castellón. Thirty of the guards were waiting, their attention was mainly on the east, and Captain Martius erected the banner of the Legion. Daves is listening carefully to Leders reporting on the latest battles of his subordinate cavalry.

"The first brigade began to attack!"

"The second brigade began to attack!"

"The third battalion started attacking!"

"The seventh brigade and the Lucania team started attacking!"

"The first brigade rushed into victory and the enemy did not resist!"

"The second brigade is rushing smoothly!"

“The first brigade crossed the heavy area and continued to advance!”

“So fast?!” Daphus was a little surprised and asked, “How did they do it?”

Ledes replied on the side: "There are all the Turui free people and slaves who are leaning around Crotone, and they all ran. When they saw our attack, they all circumvented this area. One team slowly cleared and the other troops continued to move forward."

"Well, Capps' choice is correct!" Daphus nodded with appreciation.

At this time, there were cavalry to report: "The second brigade has become two teams!"

"The first team has become two teams!"

......

"The head of the army, our offensive is very smooth, the encirclement is shrinking rapidly!" Assisi's face was excited.

"Yeah, it's better than I expected!" Davers sighed, relieved the tension in his heart, and asked Ledes: "Is there still no movement in Castron City?"

"No."

"It seems that the enemy's vigilance and reaction to danger are very slow. Alpons can't get beaten this time." Daphus was in a mood to make a joke: "Wait until the champion of the sports club wakes up from sleep." Come, it must be very strange, 'Where did his army go?'"

The people around me sneered.

.....................

In fact, Davers’s judgment was still wrong. Castron’s sentinel did not notice the difference in the Crotone camp. Although the Crotone camp was about three miles away from Castellón, because there was a forest. Blocking with the river, even if you stand on the wall, you can't see the outline of the military camp. However, the screams of tens of thousands of soldiers and the loud sounds of the exclamations can be introduced into the ears of the sentinel.

So, the sentinel informed the captain of this abnormal situation, the captain thought: Crotone's camp should be very safe! The Brutus in the west was blocked by the mountains and could not come. Turai in the north has been burned, not to mention the protection of the Trionto River. Krimissa in the south also turned to Crotone. In the northeast, we are blocked by Castron. At this moment, Crotone will not have an enemy at all. Is it because these arrogant Crotones get up early in the morning and are still in the carnival?

Out of professional habits, he sent a few cavalry symbolically to see what happened. As a result, when the cavalry passed through the woods, they were smashed by the archers of the Alpens ambush there. .

...........................

As the encirclement was further narrowed, some companies even had to become three columns because the attack line was too tight, and the encircled Crotone army became more and more crowded because of the shrinking space.

Senior officers such as Melanthius were invited to the city for dinner and failed to return, but the 100-member captain was still there, especially the team officers sleeping in the center of the camp, when they noticed that the situation was wrong, they began to laboriously greet them. Armor, pick up the weapon (because most people are drunk), ready to fight. It was only the Amendo Lara attack that was too fast, and there were chaotic deserters everywhere, disrupting the team they had rushed to organize. But when the compression of the space caused the deserters to be unable to smash, the 100-strong captain with a bright hat and a helmet became their backbone.

"We are surrounded, only to rush out to the east, to survive! To the east!" The 100 captains shouted in unison, attracting the attention of the people around them, and under their leadership, they began to face the sun. Going, the Amendolara army also ushered in the most severe test since the raid.

Dracos saw the black-pressed enemies rushing into the air, not at all. It was not the first time that the second brigade encountered this situation. Last time they blocked the vicious Lucanian food attack. After several months of training, they were more confident to block these without armor, incomplete weapons, and even There are also naked enemies.

"Transmission, local defense!" Draco ordered the drummer (each battalion is equipped with five drummers, in addition to conveying instructions, you can also use the drums to adjust the soldiers' pace when marching, keep the formation consistent, and also Boost morale).

The rhythmic drums sounded and the company's flag bearers shook the flag. In fact, the team leaders have begun to tell the soldiers to stop moving forward and defend themselves according to their own judgment.

Crotone's charge is like a row of big waves, although it is majestic, but the power is scattered. The defense of the second brigade is like an iron wall, although it is thin, but it is very strong.

The two armies collided together. One has always maintained an offensive situation and consumed a lot; one is fleeing from the beginning and is exhausted. One is fully armed and one is incomplete. There are fewer people and more people. The victory and defeat of the two sides in close combat is obvious. But the Crotones finally showed their courage in this critical moment: use the body to hit and use the ankle without weapons; when they are stabbed in the gun, they hold their hands tightly...

For a time, the second brigade was in a hard fight.

Davers got the news for the first time and immediately ordered: "The rest of the brigade speeds up the attack and can enlist the enemy!"

At the same time, he asked Ledes to speed up Alpons to lead the light infantry back, to assist the second brigade to attack, and he led the guards to the front.

When the banner of the Legion appeared behind the second line of defense, the bronze statue of the Pluto on the high side shone in the morning light, and the second-team soldiers who were struggling to support suddenly became full of morale.

"Dracos, can you still resist?" Daphus deliberately asked the second captain who was commanding the rear.

"The head of the army ~www.readwn.com~ We will be able to fight back the enemy soon!" Dracos bit his teeth and turned back to the drummers: "The drums of the attack! We must attack!"

Under the command of the commander, in the sound of the drums of the attack, the soldiers were full of spirits. Although only three rows of formations were thin relative to the enemy, they began to counterattack, forcefully swing the round shield forward, and the stab guns penetrated vigorously. The exposed gap, if the enemy caught the stab gun, pulled out the saber and slashed it. The original battle between the Greek infantry was irritating. The metal squeaking of the shield and the shield, the squeaking of the spurs on the armor, the screaming of the sabers, and the killing of the opponents for a long time. . But now, every time you swipe, every puncture, every time you slash, you can hear the enemy's pain, the tearing of the metal into the flesh, and the string of blood beads brought by the saber...

The swift counterattack of the second brigade resisted the enemy's impact, so that the courage of the majority of Crotons who did not wear armor and even without weapons quickly declined before the wall.

The light infantry who arrived soon slammed the arrows and flying stones against the rear of the Crotone inside the impact line, so that their successors could not keep up and form a joint force.

The last weight on the war balance was the fierce attack of the other three brigades. The encirclement was sharply shrinking. The central Crotone army was almost crowded, and it became difficult to turn around, let alone break through. It is.

Nearly 10,000 people were tightly surrounded by a large circle with less than one mile. The arrows and flying stones in the sky kept falling, and the shouts of surrender and not killing continued to scream. Frightened and feared quickly filled the enemy...

Free people and slaves first fell.

This was followed by soldiers from the West Riding, Crimea, and Castellón.

In the end, the Crotons who had a hard time bowed their heads proudly...
