Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Originally, Timaras saw too much load, and suggested that some of the loot should be shipped to Crotone.

It was rejected by Melancius, his reason was: Castron and Crimea joined our Crotone alliance for the first time, we need to show them the results of the capture of Turri and Croto Serious consequences of doing right inside!

In fact, there is another reason in his heart that is not to be confessed: he is afraid that the materials returned by the ship will be divided privately by the gang of city hall, so the wealth he has distributed is much less.

As for why the pontoon was not burned?Daveus’s worries were completely superfluous, and Melancius didn’t take Amendolara in his eyes at all. He believed that in the case of the destruction of the city of Turiri, there was nothing more in northern Greece. Threatened Crotone's power, and in order to facilitate the Crotonians' migration to Subari soon, the pontoon was retained.

Crotone's march was over ten miles long, and most of them were full-carts, so the march was extremely slow.At dusk, the former team had just arrived in Castellon.

The Castrons did feel fearful. Chief General Amiclis led the city-state's high-level smiles and opened the city to greet Melantius, who was returning from victory, and to host a grand victory banquet for him, and at the same time feast Crowe. Tony's officers.At the same time, they politely said to Melancius: Castellon is small, unable to accommodate such a huge army, and so many tents are replayed in the city. In case of loss, it is not good to have a conflict.

They also stated that the city of Castellon has prepared a large amount of wine and food for the soldiers of Crotone to wish them a happy victory and make up for the apology that Castellon could not allow them to enter the city.

Melanius was not a person who could think of soldiers. Seeing the Castron people thought so thoughtfully, he readily agreed to lead a dozen senior team officers including Timmaras into the city together with Amiclis.

On the way into the city, Melancius heard the spy's return: the people of Amendola rushed to the plain of Subari to rescue the Turiris.Immediately laughed: "Amendolara did so in vain, we will return soon, the plain of Subari can only belong to Crotone!"

The Crotone soldiers heard that there was wine and meat, and they immediately accelerated their march.It was too late before they started camping. They just set up a tent, and then they could not wait to drink and eat meat, celebrate the victory, until the night, the tired body could not resist the invasion of the sleeping god, and then fell asleep...

…………………

Ansitanos did not write in his book: On this day, the citizens of Amendolara had an unconventional training habit, roughly set up tents, simply built the camp, and all began to sleep.In fact, the people who helped the Turiris outside in the afternoon were mainly women, teenagers, and elderly from Amendolara...

For this battle, Amendolara almost sent out all over the city.

This night, Davies did not allow the people of Turiyi to enter the newly built camp, and the people of Tuliyi, who were exhausted, fell asleep in the sky.At this time, the Amendola civic soldiers in the camp were awakened by the team officers one by one. They began to silently eat the freshly baked bread and drink hot goat soup in the sleepy eyes. , And a little lamb and cheese.Although they had eaten dinner a few hours ago, these foods will reserve more protein and calories for them to consume for the long march and fighting.Then, they began to wear the breastplate and shinplate taken from the pack car, and checked the bayonet, knife and shield.

At this time, a few torches were erected in an open space in the middle of the camp. Daveus and the major captains, company captains, and sub-captains were taking a close look at the information based on Izam. A terrain model of the Crotone camp that was simply fabricated with mud.

"Melanius was a bit cautious. He let his troops cross the Trionto River and camped in the south of Castellon. They thought they would be safe if Castellon blocked them, but This just made his soldiers more negligent." Davers tapped the model of the Trionto River separating Castellon from the Crotone camp with a wooden stick: "But Izam He led people to try again and again on different sections of the river. He said that there is a section where he can walk, because the position is in the middle, far away from the Crotone camp, and he will not be found. And he also sent People replied,'The Crotonians have been drinking and carnival in the camp all night.' I believe that when we attack tomorrow, they will still sleep like dead pigs." Daveus's words made everyone smirk with conscience.

"They didn't dig trenches, didn't set up fences, and Luzhai. I'm afraid they wouldn't even have sentries tomorrow morning. Do they think this is a walk in their own courtyard? It's so easy!" The team officers listened to the introduction of Davers, not only Instead of being funny, he was irritated and secretly ruthless, and he must not let go of these arrogant Crotonenes.

"The only trouble is that their tents are set up very loosely, and the interval is relatively large. The south part protrudes a large piece outwards because the materials they have robbed are concentrated here." Davers used a wooden stick in A large circle was drawn above the camp model, saying carefully: "Our civic soldiers plus the Lucanian squad led by Bakul also had only about 5,000 people (Altenis sent people to the Eastern Mediterranean to attract some colors in succession There are about 500 free people in Reis, Rhode Island and Crete, which makes the 7th Brigade more complete.) In order to be able to fully surround Crotone's camp, our attack formation can only have a single line of soldiers. "

"Leader, don't worry, one column is enough! It's more troublesome to deal with people. Isn't it easy to deal with a group of sleeping pigs!" Amintas's words made everyone laugh again.

Davies smiled slightly and said to Capps beside him: "The south of the camp is handed over to your first brigade. You first attack. Because the south area is large, and there are many pack cars and materials to block the progress, how to solve these Difficulties, you and your men negotiated a solution. I only have one requirement. Can the first brigade become the first in the army, depending on whether you can keep up with the attack speed of other brigades, even faster than them!"

The usual stable Capps is also excited at the moment: "The head of the regiment is assured that the first brigade will never live up to your expectations!"

Daveus nodded and turned to Drax: "The second brigade went to the east of the camp. After the first brigade launched an attack, you could start attacking. The east of the camp was near the city of Castellon and was panicked by the attack. The first thought of the enemy is to escape into the city, so you must use the most violent attack to let them dispel this idea!"

Drax took a look at Capps and said, "Legion, our second brigade will use action to prove that we are no worse than the first brigade!"

"Okay, there must be this kind of confidence!" Daveus praised, and then turned to Hironimos: "The third brigade attacked from the west. Although most of you are recruits, I believe the third brigade will perform well. ."

Hironimos clenched his fists and said, "Relax!"

"Epithenes."

"in."

"You and Zpitt led the light shield of the 7th brigade to attack from the north."

"Head of the Legion, is our number of offenses less?" Epitanes immediately asked.

"Don't worry. Is Bagul coming?" Daveus asked.

"I'm here!" Bagul said behind the crowd.

"Come to the front." Daveus beckoned as he approached, and then said with a deep voice: "The Lucania team you led joined the north attack, and the commander was Epitenius."

Bagul gave a slight hesitant glance at Epitanis. Epitanis gave him a friendly smile. He lowered his head and said, "Okay."

"The light shield soldier is a good player in close combat, and your Lukalia warriors are also very powerful, and the enemy may not consider escaping northward at first, because the Trionto River is blocking it. I don’t worry about yours. Attack, I only worry about your lack of cooperation and the sudden advancement that leads to gaps, so after you come down, you have to communicate well to solve the problem of how to increase cooperation and control the pace of attack."

"There is one more important point!" Daveus said with a more serious tone, and said seriously: "Baguel, I have told you before, I want to emphasize again, before the war, whether it is marching or lurking You must keep quiet and not disturb the enemies! You must warn your tribes carefully and keep their mouths shut. If anyone does not listen to the order and affects this operation, those who are serious in accordance with the "Amendora Law" will be executed! "

"I know." Bagul was secretly shocked. After deciding to go back, he immediately discussed with Yasisters: how to prevent the tribe from making mistakes.

"Commander of the Legion, aren't we archers and slingers participating in this operation?" Alpens saw that he had lost his place in the deployment of the offensive battalion and could not help asking urgently.

"Of course you are indispensable." Daveus laughed. "Alpines, you lead archers and troopers in an ambush on the road east of the camp to the city of Castellon. Once someone comes out of the city to rescue them, give them the biggest Killing!"

"Yes!"

"According to Izam's intelligence, Castello followed the soldiers of Crotone because they wanted to celebrate the victory at the camp and did not return to the city. There should not be many soldiers who can fight in the city, and the combat effectiveness should not be strong. Oh... and the generals of Crotone who are having fun in the city. It is estimated that their legs will be soft tomorrow morning, and wherever they can use their weapons..." Daveus finished, and everyone laughed ambiguously.

"After you go down, deploy your subordinate company at the position of the attack line, but remember-there must be no gap between the team and the team, between the company and the company, and between the team and the team!"
