Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

"We don't have to rush to Atla in such a hurry, the Cautini want to capture Atla, then let them occupy it." A voice sounded in the big tent.

The generals of the Campania League were all angry when they heard this.They looked at it soundly and saw a general wearing black armor sitting on the side of Lizzaro, and a purple capped helmet was placed on his hand, showing that this person's status in the Dionysian army was not weaker Lizzaru, they swallowed back what they wanted to curse.

"This person seems to be called Prin...Tor..." Ayros vaguely remembered that Lizzaru had introduced them before, but this person had been sitting quietly, not too noticeable, and couldn't even think of it for a while His name.

Lizaru's plan was opposed, but he was not angry, but seriously asked the man: "Pritors, what is your opinion?"

Printos was born in the mountain reconnaissance team led by Lizam. He made great contributions to the capture of Asprostum in the Third Army more than ten years ago, and led the army to fight back against the army of Samone in Davers In the war to invade Potentia, he made other tricks, which led to the screams of the Samoneite camp, which led to his fiasco.After this, Davers asked him to assist the Third Army in attacking the Samonet territory northward.The Third Army has successively occupied many of the territories of Hippini, such as Copsa and Enona. At that time, Lizaru, the first captain of the Third Army, met with Prentals in this process.

After the end of the Great Greek War, at the suggestion of Davers, the military department was established in the military department. Davis named Printols to the staff, and soon he became the third person of the staff- -Staff Officer, there is a joke in the military department to describe the three giants of the staff department: "Philieus is sitting on his buttocks, Tolmed is running off his legs, and Printols is exhausting his brain. "It can be seen that its role in the military department.

At this moment, Prentals looked at the crowd and said slowly: "The biggest trouble for the Greek army is that the invasion of the Kautini people is that they act quickly and are difficult to be caught. Now they are attacking Atla is voluntary. Giving up this advantage gives us the possibility of surrounding and annihilating them. And a huge army like the enemy must have been led by their chieftain himself. If we annihilate and capture this army, it is tantamount to a complete solution to Kau The problem of frequent attacks by the Tini on Campania."

Printors' words made the people in the tent very emotional. A general from Pozzuoli said a little hesitantly: "But if the Cautini people occupy Atla, they will defend the city... Some experience, once we can’t fight for a long time, other Kautini tribes, even the Hippini and Pentini people come to the rescue, it will be even worse!..."

Twenty years ago, the Kautini people dared to seize this small town that penetrated into the territory of the Campania League, just because they had confidence in keeping it, and then the Campania League troops did fail many times to attack the city. This general is worried that he will once again encounter the defeat of the previous siege.

No need for further explanation by Prentals, Ai Luosi said: "There is nothing to worry about, our ally Dionia is so strong in siege, it can be easily captured by Cautini. Atlas!"

Yes, the Campania League now has the strong aid of Dionia!Reminiscing over the years, what they heard about the towns that Dionysia had forcibly conquered in a large area of ​​Apulia, everyone's confidence suddenly increased.

Instead, Lizarulou asked in a low voice of concern: "Your Majesty just let us repel the attack of Kautini. Will we do so to cause a greater war?! Your Majesty will then—"

Printols hesitated a little, and then said affirmatively: "Relax, when we annihilate the main force of Kautini, even if they want to continue the war, they will not have this strength. Only listen to us more!"

When Lizaru heard this, he immediately had no worries. He was already a militant. At this time, he was energized and said to everyone: "We must hurry up and make a plan to eliminate this enemy as soon as possible!"

He said, lying on the table, pointing at the map detailed by the staff, saying, "Now, the first, second, and third brigades of the Dionysian Third Army, and most of the light armoured soldiers, Light infantry, and some of your troops are blocking the Kaoutini from Kapua and Sassella to the northeast of Naples; the 5th, 6th, and 4th brigades of the 3rd Corps and another part of your army are fighting To the southeast of Naples, mainly blocking the Cautini people who came out of Lola, we must immediately send scouts to inform them,'After completing the blocking task, do not delay the time, immediately turn to the east of Atla City, North and south, cut off the enemy's retreat!'; and we will also call up all the remaining soldiers in the camp and approach the south of Atla City. Finally encircle the enemy!"

"There is one more thing that needs our attention!" Prentals reminded aside: "After the enemy knows that we have the Dionian Third Army in this battle, it is likely to give up the city of Atra and escape. Back to the mountains."

Lizzaru thought for a while, and immediately said, "Then inform the Second Cavalry Corps and your Cavaliers of the Campania League as quickly as possible to the east of Atla City. Once the enemy is found running away, Try their best to delay their retreat and wait for other troops to arrive and destroy them!"

The generals also put forward their own suggestions to improve this plan. At this time, no one paid too much attention to the lives of the thousands of people in Atla City. After all, the generals of the Campania League hope that this battle will completely solve their problems. A serious problem.

Soon, many reconnaissance horses ran out of the camp and drove rapidly in all directions.

………………………………

After half an hour of fighting, Segowani's troops attacked the city, and then burst into the city to clear the city.

Just as Segowani was proud of the success of his strategy, the scouts who hurried back reported to him: Several looted Kautini tribes were defeated by the Greeks in the vicinity of Atla City, chasing them. Among the soldiers there are many black helmets and black armor, and heavy infantry who can bid for guns. They suspect that they are the army of Dionysia.

The spies also brought a tribal leader who fled back, and he cried to Segowani: "The Greeks' attack was too fierce. My 150 soldiers were soon defeated! The enemy also had a lot of cavalry, soldiers. We can’t escape, either killed or captured... Chieftain, you must send troops to rescue them!"

Segowani was terrified at the moment and asked aloud: "Are you sure you attacked Dionysians?!"

"It must be them. The Campanias don't have the kind of soldiers wearing weird clothes, and it is impossible to defeat us completely!" The leader wanted to give reasons for his failure, but saw Segowani gritted his teeth. : "Damn Dionysians, how dare they violate the covenant! Are they preparing to fight the Samonais?!"

Segowani was in a state of confusion, although he repeatedly ignored Dionysia’s warning, but he was very clear in his heart: Cautini’s strength could not compete with the powerful Kingdom of Dionysia. Niah really sent an army, which means that his situation is not good!

Run away!Segowani immediately had this thought in his heart, but he immediately hesitated again: just captured the city of Atla, and paid some casualties, so he gave up the fat of Atla, and left with his hands, not only he Feeling reluctant, the soldiers of the following tribes will not agree. While the enemy's troops are still scattered everywhere, they cannot gather together to deal with him in a short time, and seize the time to search for some materials and bring them back.After returning to Kautim, we will discuss with Hirpini, Pentney, and Kaucheni the tribal chiefs how to deal with the Dionysian backlash.

After Segowani made up his mind, he immediately ordered the soldiers to seize the time, looting supplies, and ready to leave at any time.At the same time, he sent a lot of spies and ordered them to: carefully investigate the movements around Atla City, and immediately report any changes.

It didn't take long for him to continue to receive "recovery of enemy trails in the south, north, and west of Atra". At this moment, he didn't understand: the enemy had found himself and tried to surround himself!

Segowani dare to hesitate, and immediately led the soldiers to retreat east.

Soon after they escaped from Atla, they heard the sound of horseshoes from the north.

"It's the Greek cavalry!" Cautini warriors reminded each other, stopped one after another, drew out their javelins, and faced the hundreds of cavalry who rushed towards them.

It was the cavalry belonging to the Second Cavalry Regiment of Dionysia that came quickly.This time, in order to cooperate with the Third Corps in the Campania region, the Ministry of Military Affairs let the Second Cavalry Corps draw out a thousand cavalrymen to return to Lizzaro.Although the headquarters of the Second Cavalry Corps was stationed in Niutum, more than half of the soldiers of the Corps were from the Cosenza plateau, and they were better at driving horses on gentler slopes.

When approaching the range of the Kautini javelin, the Dionysian cavalry turned around and headed for the head of the Kautini army, facing the Kautini people.Wherever he passed, the soldiers of Cautini subconsciously slowed down.

At this time, the soldiers on the right side of the line also shouted: "Cavalry! There are cavalry!!!"

Dozens of Dionysian cavalry came from the south, using the same tactics, forcing the entire team of Kautini to retreat at a slower pace.

Segowani was anxious and shouted: "Retreat! Quickly retreat! Leave them alone!"
