Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

As a result, the awkward Kate reinforcements heavy infantry rushed to each other, quarreling, and the array became quite chaotic.

However, at this moment, Milon and Cipros have been determined to complete the steering of the array, because with the approach of the enemy, the two of them riding the horse have already seen the enemy's offensive direction, if the Kete reinforcements can not be the first, The array of the Second Legion is consistent, so the flank of the Kate reinforcements that stood in front of the array was completely exposed to the enemy's frontal attack, waiting for their demise.

So the two took the **** of the brigade and quickly rode around to the front of the battlefield. They smashed the guns one by one, shouted loudly, and rushed to the front, forcing the soldiers to turn back...

On the way forward, Phibidas discovered that the front of the Dionysian army had stopped moving forward. When he was wondering, the array of the left wing of Diaonia, which had been diagonally facing him, gradually began to face him...

Filibidas was shocked: the enemy is making an array turn? ! The enemy dared to make an array turn during the battle! !

Fibidas is so surprised that there is a reason: once the Greek heavy infantry battle in this era begins, the enemy and the enemy follow each other according to the prior plan, and it is difficult to make a big tactical change. This is because the heavy infantry with heavy armor and heavy armor is awkward in the first place, and it is difficult to make a more flexible maneuver in itself. Secondly, the lack of training characteristics of the city-state civics also makes them afraid to do complicated in the intensive circle. Tactical maneuvering to avoid confusion in the array, but vulnerable to attack.

This is one of the reasons why Spartan fighters have an advantage in the battle. It can be counted as a professional soldier Spartan warrior can do tactical maneuvers that other city-state troops can't do in the battle. But even the Spartans, in the big battles, only use the characteristics of the heavy infantry marching, and the left-handed tactics are interpreted to the extreme. They rarely make temporary tactical changes after the start of the battle, just like the opposite now. What the Dionyns did, this is because Sparta, like most Greek city-states, commanded Spartan team officers and generals of various armies to stay with the soldiers according to Sparta’s city-state tradition. In the battle, killing with the enemy (the king of Sparta does not need to, he can take the town to command, but the generals under his command are in the lineup, and his commanding effectiveness is greatly weakened). The democratic city-states even demanded that the generals be in the forefront of the military ranks and play the role of a leader, so that they would not be accused in the citizen assembly. Therefore, when the attacking horn of the battle blew, after the army marched, the generals almost lost their command of the whole army, and the military squad will conduct the battle according to the pre-established tactics.

The temporary change of the left wing of Dionia against the right wing of Syracuse really shocked Pyidas. Of course he also saw the chaos in the Dionysian army (mainly the Kate reinforcements). This somewhat compensates for the loss he has caused by the possibility of not being able to attack the enemy's flank.

"Hurry up! A little faster!!..." Fibidas shouted as he shouted. It is a pity that his shout can only drive a small number of soldiers around him. For a huge square of 25,000 people, it is like a stone that is thrown into the galloping river.

The right wing of Syracuse is still following the previous plan, but as the soldiers marched forward, the distance between it and the left wing of the Dionya was rapidly approaching...

The Syracuse light infantry strangled in the middle has begun to evacuate, and the seventh corps led by Chipert and the seventh corps of the second leg of Alpons are still in front of the square, not only because of Dionya. The square of the checkerboard leaves them with enough retreat channels, even more because they want to prevent the speed of the right wing of Syracuse as much as possible, and get the time for the Kert reinforcements to complete the array steering.

At the same time, the Syracuse army, who was close at hand, was nervous, and forced them to speed up the change.

The efforts of the first and second leg light infantry could not stop the Syracuse people from advancing. They only cast a round of javelin and fired a round of arrows. They had to be forced by the Syracuse array. Retreat to the rear.

At this time, the two armies were only about 60 meters apart. The array of the Kate reinforcements barely completed the turn. When Milon and Cipros returned to the rear of the square, they were already sweating, but their hearts were relaxed.

Milon said with a deep sigh: "Now I know how big the gap between Crotone's army and the Dionyrian army!"

Xi Puluos said with a lingering fear: "Fortunately, Master Daphus repeatedly asked us to break away from the square and stand behind the queue to facilitate the command. Otherwise, even if we saw the actions of the Syracuse people, There is no way to change, it must be a big loss!"

"Yes! Without the persistence of the Dionyrians, we would not dare to change the formation because of fear!" Milon once again sighed.

At this time, the left wing of Dionia and the right-wing array of Syracuse almost became two parallel lines, but it was almost perpendicular to the Dionya Middle Road troops that were still moving south.

The right-wing army of Syracuse is getting closer and closer to the left wing of Diaonia, and the soldiers of Syracuse have begun to tighten their round shields. After one hand with the Dionyns, the Diaonians are unique. The tactical play makes them remember deeply.

When the opposite Diaonian soldiers raised the javelin in their hands, they squinted their bodies and held the shield around their heads. The rain of the javelin that covered the sky hit the Syracuse army and splashed. The flower of death, the screams of screams did not affect their determination to move forward. Instead, they accelerated their progress and forced the Dionysian soldiers to rush out the second round of javelin. The killing effect was much worse. .

Now that the two armies are less than 20 meters apart, even Phibidas has a little asthma. He can hear the rapid breathing of the soldiers around him, not only because of the previous transition from retreat to offensive, hasty arrays, and hurdles. The physical exertion caused by running a few hundred meters, but also the moment of killing is coming to the extreme excitement of the body.

Through the narrow eyelets of the helmet, Fibidas can see the long shields, spears and armor gleaming on the opposite side of the army. The deep black color unique to the Dionyrian army is as cold as the daytime. Dark night. He knows that the opposite is the main force of the Dionysian army, but he is not afraid, but excited, and he is also convinced that the soldiers of Syracuse will not be afraid, not only because they are also the elite of the Syracuse army, And before the war, Dionysius had told every Sicilian soldier, 'They can only return to their hometown if they only win, otherwise they can only be buried in a foreign land! ’

Without the urging of the military squad, the Syracuse soldiers shouted "Apollo!!" and took a big step to speed up the assault. The entire Syracuse right-wing phalanx seemed to be a golden mountain to the enemy. Go and go.

At the same time, the opposite army also sounded the neat buzz of the Dionysian soldiers "Hades!", also began to charge, they are like the surging tides in the sea storm, a wave, another wave, Eventually gathered into a huge wave of peaks, rushing to the Syracuse people.

The Kate reinforcements soldiers are holding the hate of the country and hate, and they are angry, and they must turn their anger into infinite power, and vow to kill the enemy of life and death.

Tens of thousands of people's feet are vigorously stepping on the ground, rumbling, like thunder, the earth is shaking.

The loud bang, the heavy infantry battle began...

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

"Your Majesty, the left wing has fully captured the enemy!" Tolmide loudly answered the news of the return of the investigation.

Davers nodded, his eyes kept looking at the front. At this time, his fingers were far away from the enemy's military squad, and he sneered a few times and said: "The Syracuse people are moving very slowly. It seems that Dionysius wants to wait for his right wing to win first!"

Thormed laughed with a smile: "But he never imagined that the cavalry he was expecting had been trapped by the wonderful tactics you had set!"

Daves didn't have the heart to ridicule the enemy at this time. He said with a serious expression: "You can't make Dionysius too easy! Order the troops to speed forward and get the enemy as soon as possible!"

Tormide did not immediately pick up the order, but reminded: "Your Majesty, if our right wing advances too fast, I am afraid that it will reach the river where the Tacina Di River can walk, and the enemy may send troops to cross it. The Tacina di River, attacking the side of our right wing!"

Davers has already considered this issue~www.novelmtl.com~ He immediately replied: "From the current situation, Dionysius has invested enough power in the right wing of Syracuse to see his offense. Focus on our left wing. I don't think Dionysius can pull enough troops to attack my right wing side, not to mention I have enough reserve teams to deal with his devious." Indeed, in Behind Daves, there are also 1,000 light-armed soldiers from various corps and 1,000 mountain squadrons led by Izam. A total of 3,000 people have been used as reserve teams and have not come in handy.

"I understand, Your Majesty." Tolmid turned and went.

"Wait a minute!" Daves called him again: "Go and tell the heads of the various divisions that the spear battalion has gained the advantage of the Syracuse cavalry under the leadership of Capus, and then they look at them. !"

Tolmid smiled. He understood the intention of Davers: The spear team that had just been established for less than ten days had achieved impressive results. How could other legions fall behind him?

Sure enough, after the orders of Daves were communicated to the various units, the speed of the phalanx’s advancement suddenly increased. No matter the sixth, the right wing of the Seventh Army, or the fourth and fifth legions, and the middle of the Brutus warriors were in the legion. With the encouragement and urging of the team officers and officers, they accelerated.
