Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

If it was before, Dionysius would not care too much about such a retreat, because the key to the victory of Syracuse in this battle is on the right wing. The middle and left wing can only hold the enemy opposite and keep it while the enemy is attacking. Living in the balance of power, the rest is waiting for the news of the right wing victory.

But when Dionysius learned from the detective that "Syracuse's greatest advantage - the cavalry was ambushed by the Dionyns, temporarily blocked", the original relaxed mood quickly became Anxiety, the constant retreat of the left and middle roads has also become a concern. Not only did he let the squadron blow the command of the charge behind the square, but also let the commander scream after the battle, warning: the team officers and soldiers can no longer retreat, must attack!

After this application, the Syracuse civics behind the middle road no longer retreat, but forced the forefront of the Campania mercenaries to have a fierce fight with the enemies who were forced to attack; and as for the left-wing soldiers, The speed of the retreat has slowed down a bit, and it seems that it is really at a disadvantage in the confrontation.

Dionysius was a little annoyed: before he set up the formation, he learned about the right wing of Dionia by the detective, which is obviously not the main force of Dionia, and the number should be only less than his left wing, but Why is the result like this? Did the big Greeks not seriously fight? Or collaborate with the enemy? ......

Dionysius’s suspicion was again committed. He even began to doubt his own ally, Locke, but he also knew that now is not the time to worry about this, the deceitful Daves put his cavalry in trouble, now he only I can expect that the right wing led by Fibidas can quickly defeat the enemy in the face and lay the victory for the whole battle!

The reason why Dionysius still has confidence in the battle is because compared to several other poor performances, the right wing's performance is in line with his pre-war expectations.

The huge and thick square formed by 25,000 people pressed against the left wing of Dionia. Due to the vigilance against the personal movement of the Dionys, the soldiers of Syracuse were even closer together, and the formation of the guns was even more Intensive, so that the left-wing soldiers of the Dionys who are stifling at the forefront not only have to avoid the attack of the soldiers of the former Syracuse, but also warn the soldiers of the rear to stab the guns, not to mention the hard work of resisting Syracuse. The power of the people pushing forward is so great that the power of the close-up of the Dainian heavy infantry is greatly weakened.

However, the soldiers of the First and Second Legion all suffered from the battle. Although they felt some nervous because of the tremendous pressure given by the enemy in the face, because the team officers had already understood the King Dai before the battle. Firth's tactical arrangement, so they understand that the first thing they need to do in this situation is to ensure that the array will not be broken by the enemy, dragging the enemy, waiting for the arrival of the reinforcements.

To this end, the Denia soldiers used the flexibility of the formation based on the detachment to ease the enormous pressure generated by the enemy's attack in an orderly retreat. At the same time, they seized the opportunity to cover with a long shield and use a short sword to stab. Injury the enemy.

Pfeidas was almost seriously injured twice: the first time after the charge, when it was just collided with the enemy, the shield and the shield were put together, and the people were stuck together through the shield. In his gaze, the long shield would The enemy was completely protected, so he pushed the ball shield forward and tried to break the enemy's defense and let the stab guns exert their power. Unexpectedly, the enemy's right hand buried in the long shield suddenly came out from the top of the long shield. The short sword smashed down like a lightning bolt, and was tied to his Collins helmet. It immediately made him feel dizzy.

The second time, after he stabbed the enemy in front of him, the instinct squeezed into the gap of the other array according to the previous combat habits. He had not waited for him to take the next move, one left and one right and two cold daggers at the same time. To his two ribs, he reacted quickly, but he was cut by a sharp short sword and his linen breastplate cut a hole in his right waist.

This time the injury made him finally realize that the opponent is powerful, no longer easy to risk, but a consistent formation with the surrounding Syracuse soldiers.

Compared with the steady counterattacks of the first and second legions of the Republic, the leftmost Kate reinforcements were much tougher. Although their phalanx is not as thick as the Syracuse, it is hard to squeeze the Syracuse, and it is easy to retreat. The hatred gives them great courage and strength, even if they are seriously injured, as long as they can Standing, their stab guns will not stop punctuating. Even if they fall down, as long as they have a little strength, they will hold the feet of their enemies across them, let them fall, or bite with their teeth. Such a tragic scene was staged many times before the Kate reinforcements. It made the Syracuse people with heavy troops somewhat awkward. They felt that the opponents who fell to the ground were more terrible than standing. They had to repeatedly confirm that the other party died before they dared to move forward. This makes them push faster than their peers.

Behind this battlefield is another battlefield. After the withdrawal of the light infantry of Dionia, under the leadership of Chipert and Alpens, they rushed to the left and wanted to participate in the enemy cavalry. The siege, but encountered the Siracusa light infantry with the same purpose, had to continue the battle of the light infantry before the big battle.

The arms of both sides are mainly archers and javelinmen. In addition, Dionya has a number of stone throwers. Both sides adopted a loose formation, with the javelin in front and the archers in the back for a long-range attack. Although the battle is not as powerful as the heavy infantry, the degree of tragic is not low, because the protection is far less than the heavy infantry. On the battlefield where the arrows and javelins flutter, the soldiers on both sides are injured and fell to the ground.

The Diaonian light infantry is well-trained and the tactical cooperation is more tacit; the number of light infantry in Syracuse is high, and the severity of Dionysius is severe.

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

Of course, the most tragic battle is the battlefield in the far east.

The Celtic cavalry, who was caught in the middle and could not be separated, saw the war horses and tribes who had been stabbed down, the screams of the horses and the screams of their companions, and the array of long-fired guns that were constantly forced. Most of them I didn’t dare to ride again and wait for it, and I was forced to jump off the horse and hold the big sword and stop fighting.

But this is undoubtedly the arm of the car. Not to mention that their big swords are difficult to get close to the enemy when facing the spear square, and in the rush of the battle, they are often single-handedly fighting, and soon they are killed under the puncture of the spear.

Like the strong Celtic warrior in front of Tapulus, he roared and waved his sword. Although he cut off the spears of two spears, he was forced by a dense gun. After retreating back and forth, he accidentally slipped under his feet, revealing a trace of flaws, and the spear slid into the gap and stabbed his thigh. At the moment when he instinctively bent, three spears stabbed his head and chest at the same time, and he could not die any more.

Constantly killing the enemy, and let the soldiers of the spear brigade continue to rise in confidence, and the speed of advancement will increase.

In the forefront of the Tapirus, the company did not encounter major obstacles, the rushing speed was faster, and the neighboring company staggered a larger distance.

At this time, a Celtic warrior suddenly rushed into the battle from the side on the messy battlefield. The entire company was caught off guard and even he was chopped several soldiers.

Followed by the light armor in time to block him, and this Celtic warrior disregarded the trapped, the sword of struggling to slaughter the light armor's leather shield into two halves, four or five light shields surrounded him, only To solve him, he also paid the price of two light armor.

This gave Tappirus an alarm, he had to shout loudly, so that the company's soldiers did not travel too fast, waiting for the neighboring company.

Although the Celtic cavalry is fierce, in this crowded battlefield, there is no chance of winning against the intensive spears. In addition, they did not have a large number of people. At the beginning, many cavalrymen ran directly into the spear wall, so in Tapirus they continued to move forward and found that the enemy in front was no longer a figure. Tall and strong, wearing a thick striped cloth, wearing a pointed helmet, holding a large sword, the Celtic, but the hair is scattered, dark-skinned, long-skinned, wearing a single, holding a javelin spear of the Numidians, their battle The courage was a lot worse than the Celtics. Except for a few people throwing javelins at them, most of them quickly jumped off the bare horseback, turned and plunged into the chaos of the battlefield, and escaped...

Capps did not need to send spies to scout, but he also knew that his spear brigade was going well because he was sitting behind the town and was following the square.

At this time, the cavalry rushed quickly: "General Capps, the cavalry led by the head of the Ledes army was attacked by the enemy cavalry before and after, hoping to get reinforcements!"

It turned out that the thousand Sicilian allied cavalry led by Astagras was not very fast, and at the end of the formation, most of them quickly separated from the chaotic battlefield.

By the way ~www.novelmtl.com~ this battlefield is no longer suitable for cavalry to fight here, but Astagras knows that these alien hiring cavalry are important to this battle, he can't leave them alone, otherwise Di Onisius couldn't spare him. Therefore, he tried his best to regroup the Sicilian Greek cavalry who had escaped from the crowd and led the more than 800 cavalry rushed to the left side of the battlefield.

On the left, Ledes is leading half of the Cavalry Corps' cavalry to block the enemy's escape and desperately squeeze it toward the center.

The attack on the cavalry was fierce at first, especially since the Celtics caused some casualties to the Dionyrian cavalry, but with the advancement of the spear, the Celtics were severely wounded, and Numidia The cavalry is highly skilled in riding and throwing javelins, but once they lose both of these advantages, they just ride at close range and fight with their opponents, without any protection, and the horseback is also naked. They are not Dionia at all. The opponent of the cavalry.

Some of the Numisians could not resist, and some cavalry began to run away, trying to squeeze into the middle of the chaos and then retreat from the rear.

The Astagrass cavalry suddenly struck, and their main direction of attack was exactly where Ledes was, because his towering, purple-red crown helmet was too eye-catching, if not the guards were desperate to resist, Ryder Sis will be seriously injured in the first time.
