Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

"Sorry, sirs!" Felixius bowed slightly around him, unable to hide the joy in his face, and said excitedly: "I came late because I was going to receive a messenger from the Third Army in the Military Department. He brought Good news—"

Felixius looked around the elders and said aloud: "The Third Army defeated the rebels of Pecosis and Grummentum outside the city of Grummentum! Except for the very few who escaped, most of them were captured While the Third Army had only a few dozen casualties, the Commander of the Heronicus Army was leading the army to the city of Picos. It is reported that it was only a matter of time before the city was empty!

The venue immediately boiled: "Great! This is a brilliant victory!"

"Picosis! We finally have a seaside city that truly belongs to our own West Coast!"

...

The elders who were shocked by the scene described by Polyx in the cold sweat burst out with unprecedented cheers.

Polyx looked at these cheering elders with a dumbfounded moment. He hadn't recovered from the sudden reversal for a while... for a long time, the unwilling ghost said: "...Unexpectedly, Hironimos can also Create a great victory like Lord Davis..."

"No." Felixius corrected him loudly. "In fact, this victory was planned by Lord Davis with the Third Army in advance, and it also received the two alliances of Laos and Elia. Help. Otherwise, how could it be so easy to win!"

"Oh..." Kunogolata and Cornelius, who should have such expressions, then interestedly inquired about the detailed process of the battle.

Polyx did not speak.

…………………………

The Battle of the Punat River has lasted for more than an hour, and the front line between the two sides has changed from an initially curved line to an arc-shaped meniscus.

On the right wing of the Dionysian army, the team led by Trifias still maintained almost its original position.The left side of the Bruty, composed of dozens of Bruty tribe fighters opposite, could not effectively unite into a unified force, and continued to maintain pressure on the right-wing phalanx of Dionia.

In the middle of Dionysia, the soldiers of Vig, Ambalia and some of Cosenza were offensive.The phalanx of the First Legion began to recede gradually after a period of stalemate, making the entire middle road concave.The proud soldiers of the First Legion did their best, but the long-term construction of the camp had consumed too much physical strength. After re-coating the heavy armor, they were already tired. They were slightly tired.

In the left wing of Dionia, the Second Army and the Cosenza fighters are still fighting.The Cosenza warriors washed away the shame of the defeat of the last siege, relying on the superhuman endurance that has been practiced in the plateau since childhood (according to the posterity, it means that the plateau has more red blood cells and higher oxygen load), and is taller than the Greek Physique, maintain high-intensity offensive for a long time.The Second Army relied on solid defense and full cooperation among the various brigades to maintain its balance.

And on the far left, Dionysia is the only place with an absolute advantage.The light shield soldiers led by Epidnis gave Bruti cavalry damage at the beginning, and in the close combat, the Bruti cavalry suffered a lot of losses from the experienced Dionysian light shield troops. If this is not a life-threatening battle involving Bruty, the cavalry leader would have led the remaining cavalry far away, but in order to prevent the Dionysian light shield soldiers from supporting other battlefields, he led his men and Dioni The sub-light shield soldiers opened their distance and used the speed of cavalry to swim around the periphery, pumping Lengzi into the Dionysian light infantry who had left the team.But the javelin and bow and arrow of the Dionysians are not vegetarian, and the number of Bruti cavalry is still decreasing.

The light infantry led by Zpitt encountered some troubles. Although neither the quantity nor the ability of the light infantry, the Bruty light infantry could not be compared with Dioria, but the angry Bruty light infantry was eating After the enemy's hardship, he gave up the long-range attack and rushed up to use the javelin and the short blade to engage in close combat with Cipit's troops.

Cipet can retreat backwards and increase the distance. This is a light infantry tactic.However, Zpitt, who has long fought with Davers, knew that the light infantry and freemen he led as part of the general battle, the sudden retreat would expose the epithenes' flanks and would make the original battle with the enemy. The light shield soldiers suffered huge losses.As a result, Zpitt did not retreat, fighting violently with Bruti's light infantry.He had fewer light shield soldiers in his hands, and the freemen could deal with archery and tender guns, allowing them to fight with the fierce Bruti in close proximity, and soon they could not support it.

Fortunately, there are still a lot of cards in Davis's hands.Hearing the news that the left wing was in trouble, he quickly sent the mountain investigation team.These light soldiers with leather shields and short swords ran all the way to the left, joined the battle group immediately, and quickly reversed the situation.

In the dust and fog, a cavalry hurried to Dafferschi behind the formation.

Tolmed greeted him busy.

"Master Commander, Capps sent someone to call you urgently. The soldiers of the First Army are almost unable to withstand. They are so tired that they can't even lift up the copper shield!" Urgently report to Davers.

"It seems that the First Army has reached the limit of physical strength." Daveus concluded.

"Not only the first legion, Drakos also sent someone to report that some of his soldiers in the second legion began to feel dizzy and weak, and even did not dare to order the conversion of the front and back teams, fearing that there would be big chaos." Tormi De reminded.

"Our soldiers are so tired that Bruty's physical strength is no better, I'm afraid it will be no better." Daveus stared forward.The dust was flying everywhere in front of him, the figure was haggard, and the killing sound was loud, but he seemed to see where the victory was: "Quickly notify the two Bicinian leaders, Blum and Krem, aren't they shouting to fight the enemy? Now, the opportunity is coming! I want them to lead the Bisinian fighters to the left wing immediately, attack the enemy’s flanks, defeat the Cosenza with the most rapid attack, and show us the power of the Bisinian fighters!"

"Yes!" Tolmed answered excitedly.

"At the same time, Leiders’ cavalry brigade should have enough rest, and let them immediately go to assist Epithenis and Cpitt. After they quickly defeated the enemy’s cavalry and light infantry, they turned around and crossed the battlefield to attack the enemy’s enemy. Behind the middle road, struck back and forth with the first legion, and defeated it in one fell swoop!" Dafus clenched his right fist and swung down heavily.

"Understood, Lord Commander!" Tolmed led the two herding soldiers on their horses, and drove to the left, and he would personally order.

Davers turned his head to look at the two troops that had not participated in the battle, far away to the left and behind the square. The distance a few miles away was just a dim shadow and could not be seen at all.

After a while, Tolmed hurried back: "They have already been dispatched."

"Blow the offensive horn!" Daveus immediately ordered.

"Beep! Beep! Beep!..." The high-pitched trumpet overwhelmed the noisy fighting and spread throughout the battle.

"It's the offensive number! The brothers hold on, our reserve team is dispatched!" Zantiparis heard the trumpet sound and was very excited.Before the war, Davers had told the two regiment leaders of his battle plan, and the two regiments communicated Davies' tactical intentions to the captains, company captains, and detachment captains, so they were so passive Under the circumstances, the defense lines of the 1st and 2nd legions can still hold on, because the team officers have the bottom of their hearts, and now they finally look forward to the attack.

"Drumming! Drumming!" Zantiparis shouted commands in a hoarse voice.

The drums sounded and the military flag pointed forward.Although the soldiers were exhausted, their spirits were uplifted.

All the captains of the 1st and 2nd legions did almost the same thing as Zantiparis.

…………………………

When the sound of the bugle came into Piarren's ears, he was in the right wing of Bruti, following the fighters and struggling forward. Although every step was very difficult, the Cosenza fighters were advancing.

The Dionysians are almost done!Pi Anlun flashed such a thought in his heart. Although he was also tired, his desire for victory prompted him to work harder.At this moment, Dionia's trumpet shocked him: Did the enemy come with reinforcements?

A sense of urgency rushed into his heart. He could not understand the whole situation in the battle, and he could only step up to defeat the enemy in front of him: "Children of Brutus will work harder! The enemy will not work!..." he shouted, surrounding The guards shouted, infecting other fighters... The Cosenza fighters tried their best to attack with their remaining strength.,

However, the defense of the Second Army was also greatly enhanced, but it was more difficult for the Bruti to advance the center and the right wing than before.

Under the leadership of Broome and Crelu, more than two thousand Bisinian fighters who had been holding for more than an hour and nowhere to vent their energy ran all the way, bypassing the outside of both sides, roaring, and rushing towards the fiercely. Bruty people right rear.

The shouting of shouting and the rumbling footsteps made the Cosenza warriors look back hurriedly, and then they saw countless brutal warriors with similar looks and dresses waving their spears, killing them fiercely.

"It's a Bisinian! We're surrounded!!" Cosenza warrior turned around and defended.

At this time, the Leiders cavalry brigade easily defeated the bruti cavalry and light infantry that were struggling to support. Just as the cavalry brigade, reconnaissance brigade, and light infantry gave up chasing the defeated soldiers, they marched forward to the north. When preparing to cross the rear of the enemy's right wing and attack the rear of the Bruti army, the exhausted Cosenza soldiers began to collapse after being fiercely attacked from the rear by the Bisinians...
