"The king's army is coming! The king's army is coming!!" A scout cavalry ran from a distance, shouting repeatedly in Persian and Greek.

The soldiers who were about to stop and rest commotion.

"Patikias, are you really talking about it? Artaxerxes is really here?!" Little Cyrus could not wait to see the cavalry who had just jumped off the horse.

"Yes, His Royal Highness. Artaxerxes is here! Artaxesis is here too! And that... damn Tisavonis is here too!" Patakis gasped. , Said in a hoarse voice.

"Very good, my friend! Very good! He is finally here!!" Little Jurus jumped off the horse excitedly, and while the servant put on his breastplate, he shouted to his lieutenant Aliros: "Notice The whole army, ready to fight!!"

"Yes, Your Royal Highness!" Ali Rouse hurriedly called to command the soldiers: "Immediately notify the Greeks and quickly form an array on our right wing! Prepare to fight!"

The subordinate soldiers galloped away.

Aliros also called the Persian generals.Little Cyrus let them lead the soldiers to expand on their left wing, and they led the 800 cavalry in the center.

Attentive Altapatus asked: "How many enemies?"

"About 60,000...or 80,000..." Patikias recalled what he saw, with a little fear on his face.

"So many people!!!" the attendants exclaimed, their faces scared.

"Haha! Are you scared? My friend." Little Cyrus stepped forward and gave Patikias a strong hug, not disappointing his body full of dust and sweat.Then, turned around and shouted to the surroundings, "Friends, are you afraid?!"

The followers and guards of Little Cyrus certainly expressed their bravery.

"Even if there are more soldiers in Artaxerxes, he is still the timid Artaxerxes! Don't forget, a beagle can scare him to pee!" Little Cyrus vulgarly, let There was a laugh around.

"And I have you! And my army! We defeated the powerful Athens together! The Athens that once defeated us in Persia!" Every time Gurus' eyes swept over a person, that person straightened his chest.

"We still have brave Greeks! They are fighting alongside us!" Little Cyrus looked to the right-there, the Greek heavy infantry began to form a slow array.Seeing this, he was confident in his heart: "We can't resist! We can't be defeated!!"

"Wansheng!" Altapatus shouted first, and then everyone shouted: "Wansheng!!"

Faced with the high morale, Little Cyrus raised his right hand: "Friends! Warriors! After this victory, I swear to the Supreme God Mazda, I will do my best to return your friendship and dedication!! "

"Gurus, THEGREAT!!!" Someone shouted.Immediately, like a torrent of torrents, the shouts raged.

…………………

"Hey, Matonis. Is there a situation?" Daveus couldn't help but patted the soldier in front of him again.

"How many times have you asked! No! No!" Matonis wiped his sweaty neck with his free left hand, shouting anxiously: "How come the enemy has not yet come? The sun has reached the center of the sky ! Wait any longer, I will be burnt by its flames!"

"Martonis, even if your meat is cooked, I don't want to smell it. During this time, I eat meat and want to vomit." The next warrior said with a tongue-in-mouth, causing the soldiers to laugh.

"Shut up! Oliver, you lascivious guy, if you want me to put your hand in your mouth and let you taste the flesh of your own body, you will continue to talk!" Matonis waved With his strong arms, he threatened fiercely.

"Oh, I'm so scared!" Oliver pretended to be scared, causing everyone to laugh again.

"Stand up, stop it! Mennon is here!" As soon as Silos's voice fell, a sharp voice came from him: "Stick boys, what do you think this is! Is your family banquet seat? ?"

A well-shaped warrior with a red cap on his helmet stood in front of the phalanx, pointing at them and cursing: "This is the battlefield! If you don't go all out, then Hades will be happy to visit you!"

"Menong with a bad mouth!" someone shouted in the line.

"Who said this? Stand up for me!!!" Everyone sighed and looked at Meron's shouting anxiously as Merong jumped in front.

Then someone shouted loudly: "Look, look ahead!!!"

The soldiers stared straight ahead.Soon, the smile on his face was quickly replaced by panic.

At the end of the line of sight, the sky was filled with smoke, covering the hills, trees, and houses, and it was gray.

After a while, a thin black line drilled soot and began to stretch to both sides, gradually thickening...

After a while, when the soldiers could barely see the outline of the enemy, countless lights began to shine in the eyes of the crowd in the dazzling sunlight.

Armor, spears, shields... The cold light emanating from the night sky seemed to be endless; the sound of footsteps, shouts, and horse hisses converged into billowing waves, even the earth shuddered, let alone human legs.

When Oliver felt he was about to fall, he heard Silos shouting, "Ready to fight!"

"Ready to fight!!"

"Ready to fight!!!"

The Greek mercenary soldiers put on their helmets, took off the round shield hanging on their left shoulders, held the bayonet, and began to strike the shield.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The huge noise made the soldiers Oliver realize that they were also in a strong power, and their mood gradually calmed down.

……………………

The Persian army is still moving slowly and orderly: the hob wagon is at the front, followed by the unarmed archers, followed by the light cavalry, and at the end is the long shielded infantry and the spear vine shield infantry.The heavy armored cavalry is divided into two parts, part of the sanitation king of Persia; part of it is deployed on the far left of the formation...

The mighty Persian army is like a thick cloud on the sky before the storm.

……………………

At this moment, Little Cyrus took a few entourages along the formation, galloping left to right, giving instructions to each Greek mercenary leader...

With continuous cheering, he had reached the far right of the Greek army array, and he could even see the roaring Euphrates River not far away.

"Salute to you, Your Highness!" Clearkus saluted.

Little Cyrus looked down at the Greek he trusted most, and pointed his finger across the place where the Persian Central Army said, "When the battle begins, I hope that you will lead your people to the center of the enemy. Defeating Artaxerxes , The victory in this battle must be ours!"
