Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 2 Chapter 38: Battle of the Great River Beach (3)

For a time, the camp was in chaos, and Gennanet couldn’t gather enough fighters to defeat the riots that the Vigers had avenged for revenge...

"Captain, look!" Outside the camp in Lucania, the mercenary cavalry who was watching the movement shouted excitedly.

Ledes had been annoyed because he did not stop all the soldiers who reported the Lukania report. He did not expect the enemy camp to be on fire, and then saw the people inside began to kill each other. He could not believe his eyes.

"Captain, is guilty! The enemy is guilty!!" The cavalry next to him continued to exclaim excitedly.

Ledes suppressed the inner excitement and observed it for a while. After confirming it, he said: "Fast! Go back and tell the leader of Daves that the enemy camp is seriously guilty and temporarily unable to send reinforcements!"

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

Davers did not know that guilt was in the camp of Lucania, and he is now worried about the battlefield.

Although the Lucania fighters are not well equipped, lack of physical strength, and slipping under their feet (because the frequent trampling makes the beaches muddy), they are still like the tides in the sea, and the waves are attacking the Japanese defense. The **** nature is also provoked by the screams of the compatriots: even if they are stabbed in the thorns, they will die of slashing guns; when they are knocked down by the shield, they will desperately hook the Greek soldiers before they slip down the slope. Feet...

The defense line north of the Greek army is crumbling.

"Report, the leader of Dracos has fallen!"

"What?!" Daves was shocked. At the rear of the Heavy Infantry Front, he had already felt the commotion of the mercenaries ahead, and the commotion was spreading.

"Let Achta pull out 300 people to support the north!" Daves said anxiously.

"The leader, this order you have been there before, Tarantum has no soldiers to send, they are also very difficult!" Assist reminded.

"Yes." Daves rubbed his face with his hand. The first time he independently commanded such a big battle, it was related to the future fate of him and the soldiers. He was a little nervous. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, then decisively ordered: "Command the slaves and light shields to fight!"

Then he looked back at Martius: "We are going to play!"

"Hey!" Maltius excitedly beat the round shield with a saber, and the guards also put down the stab guns, took out the sabers, and screamed loudly. Experienced, they know that in such an extremely crowded battlefield, long weapons are no longer useful.

Davers took the lead and rushed up. Martius’s **** followed him up and quickly guarded him. Assisi raised his flag and was behind Davis.

The high-flying military flag hesitated the mercenaries who began to break, and let the influential Lucanias find their targets, gradually coming to Daves, so that the pressure on other lines of defense was slightly relieved, but it made The impact of Foss suddenly increased...

At this time, the copper sound continued to sound.

Although the Light Shields had been numb with frequent throwing of javelins, they did not hesitate to raise the leather shield and the long-handled knife with the help of Epidinis and Cappitt, rushing to block employment. The gap in the military defense line.

The slaves had long been eager to wait, because Davers had promised them that they would be free as long as the battle was won. So when the order came, they shouted: "For freedom!!!"

With ample physical strength and high morale, they have no war skills, and some of the enemies who broke through the line of defense have rushed down the slope. At the same time, there are some mercenaries who are squeezed by them...

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

Also shouting "for freedom" is the team led by Mercy, led by mercenary veterans, this thousand slaves not only quickly arrived at the place where Felicius was, but also bypassed the dog’s staggered and melee The front of the team, like a hammer, hit the enemy's side.

Akpiru and the other two big princes who are worried about the situation in the back are at the forefront. The small number of guards around them can't stop the insurgency of the slaves in the excitement.

"Why?! Why did Cincinnati not arrive yet?!" Akpi screamed angrily.

"The big leader, quickly withdraw it, and can't go later!" The subordinates anxiously advised.

Withdraw? Throw nearly 10,000 soldiers here? ! Akepiru is willing to give up, he still wants to persist, but he heard sorrow from not far away: "big leader! big leader!..."

It turned out that Udum’s great leader, Udler, had several spears in his body and fell to the ground.

Akpi finally stopped hesitating. Under the subordinates' dying guards, Akpi and the leader of the Laos, Tula, took dozens of people to escape to the west, and the remaining five hundred Lucania fighters were all Packed dumplings.

At this time, the Ryders cavalry just rushed back to the battle site and shouted loudly: "The enemy camp is guilty, and the reinforcements will not arrive for the time being!"

The good news is that they have boosted the morale of the mercenaries, and the Lukadians who are able to understand the Greek language are shocked. The Lucanians are neighbors of the Greek city-states. Although they are hostile, they also have trade. There are a lot of Greek speakers, and the leader is fleeing, morale is falling...

Mercenary soldiers and slave soldiers were attacked before and after, and five hundred Lucania fighters were either killed or fleeing. Then the team in the joint army did not rest, and Felicius ordered the slaves and mercenaries led by Mercy to quickly reinforce the western defense.

At this time, the western defense line was even worse than the northern defense line. Capps’s limited strength was stretched, and the thin lines of defense were shattered by crowds of people.

Capps, Antonios, and Alexis armed with shield guns and battles (according to the military law established by Davis: no special circumstances, even the captain must not kill himself with the enemy to prevent the command from losing control).

In this crisis, Filipius led the team, and the joining of nearly 2,000 people finally stabilized the defense...

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

The fighting lasted for more than an hour, and the impact of the Lukania tribal coalition forces on the line of defense began to weaken...

The entire river beach area is covered with soldiers who have been stabbed, robbed, arrows, flying stones, and even trampled by their own people. www.readwn.com~ snoring, mourning, crying, and the sound is coming The bigger the tribe warriors who are still fighting, the less...

More and more soldiers saw no hope of breaking through, and instead went to the Tino River and fled to the hot spring swamp. The result was not washed away by the river, or the feet were caught in the swamp mud and could not move...

At this point, Davers will mature the time and resolutely issued an order for the offense.

The trepidation of the bronze screams, the extremely exhausted Greek soldiers, under the spur of the upcoming victory, under the leadership of Dafos, Acheta, and Felicius, from the east, west, and north sides, For example, if the tiger rushes to the ground and launches the final attack against the almost incapable enemy of the slope, the soldiers of Lucania can not resist, and then retreat... Finally, except for a small number of soldiers surrendering, the rest are not killed, even Was forced into the Tino River and hot spring swamp, lost to the long-range attack of bows and arrows, javelins...

The first large-scale battle of independent command in the long military life of Davers: the battle of the Great River Beach (also known as the hot spring marsh battle), with about 7500 mixed forces (including slaves) against the Lucania tribe More than 9,000 coalition forces, the final result is more than 1,000 casualties of the Greek army (half of which are slaves), more than 9,000 Lukaria tribes, except for more than 400 surrenders, all over the army, Dafos Great victory.

The entire river bank is like a mountain, and the blood flows into a river...

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

The efforts of Cincinnag, Gennanet and others were in vain. The defeat of Picosis was irreparable. They eventually took more than two hundred people and fled the camp. They watched the fires stretch for a few miles. The camp burned to ashes...

The life and death enemies, the Vigers, were in perfect condition and entered the westward mountain road under the leadership of Sedrum, and embarked on their way home.
