Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

Vol 6 Chapter 173: Re-enforcement

"General Seckley is really hoping to do this!" Flalios immediately agreed.

"The soldiers had a full day off yesterday, and they have been staying on board for a long time. They are still physically and mentally full. But look at the present--" Hilos pointed to the densely transported ships on the dock, and said in a hurry: "More than 6,000 soldiers have come ashore, I don't know when to wait! And I have been the chief executive of Cosenza, I know how big the area of ​​Knapetia is, and it is almost impossible to help the people who fled Trina. Let the city of Kna Petia be filled with people."

"You don't have to worry about accommodation problems, I will try my best to arrange them! I can't live, I can still camp outside the city." Assisi said confidently.

"I know that there are mountains outside Kna Petia. I camp here. I might as well camp on the plains ahead. The soldiers will sleep better." Hilos continued, saying: "And You have been monitoring Trina's movements, and Trina's enemies are always watching this place. Our fleet stays outside the port for so long, the enemy will not know it! They know our arrival, even if it is Bernian is attacked, they will also strengthen the defense against Trina! In contrast, I am not as good as I led the army to attack Trina, to attract the guardian of Hiberian to rescue, Seclyan led Lijim again. When people attack the defensive emptiness of Hibernian, the possibility of success is bigger!"

After this was said, several other people were a little moved. In fact, both Assisi and Fralios understood that Seklelyan had appointed the plan. In fact, there was some selfishness and I wanted to get more of the army of Dionia. There are many records, but at this moment, Hilos does not care about the merits, but more considerations are how to benefit the entire situation.

"Actually, whether it is attacking Trina or Hibernian, it is not the most important thing! The most important thing is -" Hilos looked at Assisi, and said with a serious look: "The army under your command is now In Crotone, confronting the Syracuse army, the sooner we attack the enemy's rear, the sooner we can trap the enemy in the passive, let the sire get the initiative, in order to better defeat the main force of Syracuse, get this The victory of the war! I have been delaying a lot of time in Raos, and now we must act as soon as possible!"

Assisi was deeply moved by the words of Hilos from the heart of the lungs, and immediately stated: "I understand, Hilo is an adult! I will not stop you from landing in Ophimia, I will organize the hands and transport the grain to the troops. And immediately gather a thousand soldiers, starting from the land, going to Ophelia to meet you!"

"Master Hilos, I am going to recruit Trina citizens now, they have long been looking forward to this day!" Bloomaras said excitedly.

"Master Hilos, my warship is starting with you, I want to get General Sekerian as soon as possible!" Flarios also immediately said.

"Okay, let's meet in Trina!" Hilos solemnly performed a military ceremony.

"Hey, I prepared a banquet tonight, I want you to go to my house to be a guest, see my wife and children by the way, it seems that this time there is no chance!" Asistics sighed, facing A port official next door told a few words, the man rushed to the dock, commanded the ship, and combed the channel so that the carrier could leave the port smoothly.

"Master Hilos, May Hades bless you and everything goes well!" After Assisi sent his sincere blessing, he asked: "Heypolis, adults, are you willing to go to my house to be a guest, by the way Can I talk to you about how to be a good clerk?"

Heinepolis had some intentions, and he turned to look at Hilos.

Hilos suggested: "You should stay in Knapetia, and wait until your Majesty takes the army into the plains of Orpheia, and it is not too late to meet him."

Henipolis hesitated for a moment and finally said: "Master Assisi, thank you for your invitation! I am coming with the hero of Heroes, or let him go."

.......................................

Yesterday, the Syracuse people attacked the rocket for most of the day. Lucias and others led the citizens to be busy until the evening, tired and thirsty, and fell directly on the square outside the temple, and they slept until dawn.

The rocket attacks on Syracuse that made them most worried did not come again, and they could not see the shadow of an enemy from the Acropolis. The strangers, Lucias, Milon and others, decided after deliberation. Send people out to investigate.

In fact, yesterday the Acropolis sent a number of messengers to the Camp in Deonia to return safely. They have already known the Syracuse’s attempt, but this has only slightly weakened some Lucias. These Crotones' high-level grievances against Diaonia did not lend a helping hand.

The spy quickly returned to the Acropolis to return: not only did the city not see the enemy, but the Syracuse camp outside the city also disappeared!

Lucias looked at Milong with surprise and surprise. He couldn't believe it and said: "Is the Syracuse retreating?!"

"It is very possible." Milon thought and said: "If Syracuse's army is to attack the Dionya camp on the north bank of the Nato River, their own camp will not be demolished."

"So we can leave the Acropolis!" Heath Protis said with a dry lips, excited.

His words were enthusiastically responded by other people. They had not drunk for a long time, and everyone’s voice was smoking.

Lucias also made up his mind at this moment, hesitatingly asked: "Miron, what do you think?"

"As far as I know, Dionysius is a very deceitful person. He may deliberately lure us out of the city and let his thousands of cavalry quickly kill. More than half of us are elderly women and children. Once we get off the Acropolis, it is very difficult. Escape their pursuit!" Milon worried.

"Don't it be because of the fear of the Syracuse people, we have to stay in the Acropolis to die of thirst?!" Cypriot Protus asked loudly.

"Of course not." Milon said in a positive manner: "We can send people to continue to explore the movement of the Syracuse people to the south, and send messengers to the Dionyns on the north bank of the Nato River to request protection, and also ask them Sending the fleet to the port, carrying the enemy in the city, and then transporting the water to the Acropolis..."

"Good idea, just do it!" Lucy Ass immediately made a decision, and others agreed.

Just then, the messenger sent by Daves arrived at the Acropolis.

The news that "the Daedian army has crossed the river" has excited Croton's top management, but Daphus's speculation that "may be a battle with the Syracuse" makes them nervous.

"Although I was somewhat dissatisfied with the 'indifferent' of the Dionyrians, but they really passed the river, I don't want them to come over..." Lucias said with a dignified look.

"Yeah." Milon also shared the same feeling. He said in a contradiction: "According to the narrative of the messenger, the number of the Dionian army is about 55,000, and according to the siege of the Syracuse army I learned before. In the case, they are afraid that there will be no less than 70,000 soldiers, a difference of more than 10,000! If Dionia and Syracuse really fight here today, we must fully assist Diaonia! Otherwise..."

"This is a must! If Dionia is defeated, we will all become the slaves of the Sicilian lord!" Cipros did not know when he rushed to the high-level meeting of Crotone, and said loudly: "We The Triner decided to rush to meet the army of Dionia immediately!"

Crotone’s lawmakers looked at each other and then talked about it.

In the end, Lucias said loudly: "We Crotone will also send General Milon to lead the majority of Crotone citizens and join the army of Dionia!"

Milon squeezed a smile: "I just took the peasants and rushed to drink a glass of water!"

He wanted to relax the atmosphere in the meeting place, but everyone was nervous and no one laughed.

.............................................

Just as more than 4,000 soldiers were convened in Crotone and Cipros led nearly 900 people in Trina to prepare for the downhill, the army of Dionia had reached the front of the camp in Syracuse.

Dionysius has a strong force, except for the more defensive facilities on the side of Asturustum, which is only set up in this side camp in the core area of ​​Crotone. The soil barrier, the wooden fence, and even the trenches were not dug. He even hoped that the Crotones would go out of the city to attack the camp, just to make it hit hard. Therefore, when retreating, it is easy to push down the earth wall, which does not hinder the progress of the Dionyrian army.

At this time ~www.novelmtl.com~Daves received the return of the detective: the Syracuse army stopped retreating, and quickly turned around, approaching them, and the enemy cavalry also began to attack, expelling Dionys Asian cavalry.

Dionysius really came! Due to the speculation and preparation in this regard, Davers did not feel too much surprised. The more he thought about it, the order was issued: "The whole army slowly retreats, and at the same time beware of the attack of enemy cavalry! Notify Leders, Don't fight hard with the enemy cavalry, first withdraw it!"

In spite of doubts, Tormide still rushed to issue a military order.

Since the Dionysian army did not take the usual way of walking in the column after crossing the river, it was lined up and marched south with a large width. The troops of more than 50,000 people stretched from west to east. In order to ensure the rapid communication of the military order, Davers and Dulmid discussed a way to have two commanders at each kilometer behind the entire team to ensure that Davis and each The command and communication between the legions is fast and easy.

The Seventh Corps is located at the far right of the Grand Force, adjacent to the Tacina Di River. After listening to the words of the commander, the head of the army, Matones, said that he could not understand: "Why do you want to retreat?! The enemy has chased it. At this time, the retreat will only lead to a decline in morale and chaos! We should meet up and fight the enemy!... ”
