Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

The Greek city-states’ attack and retreat sounds were roughly the same, but Turri’s military deployment was basically unchanged. Except that all 200 cavalry were allocated to Aceta, this made Aceta more interested in Davos. Thanks to him repeatedly.

Burcos stood not far away, seeing everyone in deliberations, who also had a good opinion of Davos, he did not understand: why Davos would sing praises to the Pythagorean school at this time, he had not heard him mention it before. !Did he not know that in Greater Greece, with the exception of Tarantum, no city-state would have a good opinion of the Pythagorean school, making this mysterious group difficult to survive in Great Greece?His attitude may affect Ferris and Kunogolata's perception of him!

Just as Burcos was worried for Daveus, the meeting in front of the station would soon be over.Daveus jumped on the horse and slowly walked towards his team while observing the two teams that were about to fight alongside him: Tarantum reinforcements led by Aceta, each of whom was two Thirty-year-old sturdy young man, carrying a shield on his left shoulder, a lance on his right shoulder, and a helmet on his right shoulder, while marching while speaking with his companions, his expression was more relaxed; most of the civil soldiers of Turui appeared The expression is solemn, many people have gray hair, and their bodies are slightly ricket...

Looking at it, Daveus frowned, and suddenly he felt something was wrong, pointing to the back of the team, and Burkos, who was beside him, said: "What's going on? Why are there soldiers in leather armor?... ...Wait... There are still some soldiers who actually have their bodies on their bodies...No, you have more than 4,000 people!"

Burcos replied: "Those are free people and Gentiles living in Turi. The Turiyi Citizens' Conference passed a discussion and passed a resolution,'All freemen and foreigners who participated in this war will win the war. Afterwards, he will become a citizen of Turi', and your suggestion reminds us. Now Turi's team is about 6,000 people." Burkos was slightly complacent.

This slightly eased the uneasiness in Davis's heart, he exclaimed: "I can't think of a lot of free people in the city of Turui!"

"In fact, this is only a small part, and most of the free people are watching, and did not join the fight." Burkes' words surprised Davies, but also made him think about it.

The Turiyi Allied Forces were divided into three columns, left, center and right. They lined up on the Xubari Plain and slowly moved westward along the Krati River.The reconnaissance cavalry keeps going back and forth in return for the movement of the Lucania.

The herald rushed over and said to the leader Daveus: "General Ferris ordered you to stop advancing and stand here!"

"Got it." Daveus nodded in response, and then said to the commander around him: "Blow trumpet, stop moving!"

The bugle sounded and the mercenary team quickly stopped.

"Order, array!" Daveus ordered again.

The commander blew the round copper trumpet again.

Immediately, the mercenary column head moved to the right, and the tail swayed forward.Dave’s army is based on teams as the basic unit of battle (the squad only plays a management role and cannot fight independently). When platooning, it is based on the four columns of a team, and then row down in turn, so the whole team’s “long dragon” When I flew over and headed west, the array was basically completed, and the speed was very fast.

Davos ranked the first heavy infantry company at the far right, because this is to connect with Turri’s middle road, so the steady first heavy infantry company captain Capus controls the team’s attack and retreat. Prevent disconnection from the middle road.At the far left is the third heavy infantry company led by Amintas. Considering the large number of enemies, the left flank may be surrounded. A company captain who dares to fight will keep the morale of the soldiers high. In fact, Davos felt that the same brave and more experienced combat hero, Hironimos, was more suitable for this task, but he had to rely on his former expeditionary generals to recruit too many recruits (joining the team when Byzantium ), Daphes is not so relieved.Fortunately, there are two light shield companies behind Amintas. I believe there is no problem with a solid line of defense.Traditionally, the Greek phalanx has a thickness of at least eight columns, but the team of Daveus has only four rows, because the strength is small. To ensure the length of the front, the thickness can only be thinner.But Davers believed that the experienced mercenaries were able to block the large number of enemies.

The left wing has been arrayed, and the middle road is slowly expanding. The shouts of the team officers, the orders of the heralding soldiers, and the reminders of the soldiers are all intertwined. The sounds are intertwined, just like a noisy big market...Ferris Draco’s 1,000 mercenaries were placed at the forefront of the front. The Turrii civic soldiers were in the center. After the free residence, there were more than a dozen columns...

The right-wing array is also relatively fast.Aceta ranked the Tarantum civic soldiers in front, with mercenaries behind, and at the far right there were two hundred cavalrymen, and his phalanx was eight columns thick.

Finally, the middle road was also arrayed, and the left, center and right wing arrays were connected in a line.The priests of Turiyi carried Turiyi’s protector, the statue of Apollo, the sun god, and came to the phalanx to sing hymns, then dedicate blood to pray for the victory of the war, and the soldiers began silently Apollo prayed for his blessing; the soldiers of Tarantum were also praying, but not to the sun god, their city-state had its own patron saint Poseidon, and even the legendary city-state demigod hero Frantus; most of the mercenaries believe in Ares and the main god Zeus, but the soldiers of Davos are different. In the past, they also believed in Ares, but Daeves led them to one victory after another. After creating many miracles, I began to believe in Hades...

When the whole army was immersed in the prayer to the gods, the scouts also drove back one after another, bringing the news that the Lucanian coalition was coming, and the Lucanian scout also appeared in the Greek coalition. Before, was quickly forced to retreat by the crowded Greek cavalry.

"The Lukanians are less than three miles away from us...the whole army should be prepared!" Kunogolata said nervously.

Ferris waved his hand and said, "No hurry, the Lucania will not attack so quickly. Their army has not yet appeared. Even if it does, it will take some time to set up the battle line alone."

Kunogolata retreated.

After a while, I saw a golden light shining on the distant field, full of mountains and fields, like a golden torrent rolling eastward.

Kunogolata took a deep breath and said nervously: "As the young leader of the mercenary said, the Lucania people really put on our weapons and armor, which is a little troublesome!"

"Don't worry, even if the Lucanians changed their equipment, in such a short time, they couldn't learn our Greek battle, but they abandoned their own strengths, maybe it's a good thing." Ferrui Si comforted him without hesitation, and turned to the commander again: "Quickly notify the team officers, so that they don't worry, let the soldiers continue to rest."

……………………………

"Damn, we are carrying the sun, and the sun shines on them, and my eyes are uncomfortable. When we fight for a while, it will affect the throwing of javelins by Epitanis and Cpit!" Matoris felt a few Disturbed.

"There is no way, who told us to be in the East. Isn't Turi's patron saint Apollo? Let them pray to Apollo instead of coming out today." Oliver said jokingly.

"It's better to find our leader Davies, let Hades directly turn the day into the night, and this fight will not need to fight." Epitanis also quipped.

...

The mercenary soldiers were resting, and the team officers gathered around Daveus to joke a few words, but did not take the large number of Lucanias on the opposite side seriously.
