Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece

But the deputy was sent for almost two months. He usually got along with him, and he didn’t even remember the name of the adjutant. Fortunately, the adjutant had already understood the character of Leo Tizides through this period of contact. He did not care, but seriously answered: "Adult, my name is Mukhlu!"

"You are a Brutus?" Leo Tizides looked at his different looks from the Greeks and asked.

"Yes, I am from Cosenza in Bruty."

"Yeah." Leo Tizides nodded and waved his hand: "Go to the order."

"Yes." The adjutant hurriedly turned around and posted a smile on his face. According to his understanding of the commander, he knew that he had been recognized by the colleagues of the military department as "the most severe army chief". .

In fact, the identity of the adjutant Mukhlu is not simple. When he was 18 years old, he followed Hieronymus to participate in the Crotone conference and suffered injuries. He was also comforted by King Davers after the war. Later, he officially joined the Fifth Army. He participated in the wars of the Kingdom for more than a decade. He has been promoted to the rank of the captain. He has requested to go to the staff of the Military Affairs Department for further study. For Dionysian senior team officers, there is very little initiative to ask for further study, which is very rare, so even though he is over 30 years old, Felicius has made an exception to transfer him to the staff.

After Mukhlu was transferred to the staff office, he won the praise of his colleagues with his consistent and diligent efforts. This time, in view of the importance of this war, Felicius was reluctant to send this powerful and steady man. Now it seems that it is finally satisfying the requirements of Leo Tiddides, who is difficult to serve.

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

The 15,000 soldiers led by Leo Tizeds included 8,000 officers of the Eighth Army, 5,000 reserve teams, nearly 1,000 soldiers, and 1,000 soldiers of the Fourth Cavalry Corps. Cavalry (the Fourth Cavalry Corps has been short of money for the Sicilian territorial population and war horses).

The soldiers of the Eighth Army heard that they had been beaten and they were all excited. Two years ago, the war of the West Kyle people made the soldiers get a lot of rewards. They have been eager to make new contributions. Now the opportunity is coming!

The soldiers of the reserve team are looking forward to their outstanding performance in the upcoming battle, adding a strong color to their military resumes, so that they can be smoothly converted into official Legionnaires.

Under the leadership of the team officers, the soldiers ran to the foot of the mountain in an orderly and swift manner, and began to arrange the formation of the board format.

Just after the formation, the soldiers heard a huge buzz from the front.

The messy and thunderous footsteps are getting louder and louder...

Soon, they saw the black-squeezing squadron in front of it like a mountain torrent in a rainstorm pouring down into the lowlands, roaring and rushing toward them.

Some of the Dionysian recruits began to swallow and nervously.

"Command the detachments to quickly set up the shield!" Diocassius, who was a Naxos inspector two years ago, is now the captain of the first company of the First Brigade of the Eighth Corps. He calmly and orders himself. .

Other team officers have issued similar orders.

This time, the shield of Dionya is different from the previous ones. The soldiers of each detachment not only erected the shields on the front, back, left and right sides of the small square, but also the front and rear, left and right four. The direction is flat, like a hedgehog that has been sturdy.

At the same time, the soldiers continued to shout: "From the gap! Go from the gap!!!"

In order to facilitate the retreat of the squadron, the interval between the small squares of the squadrons of the Eighth Army is even more open than the usual training position.

Seeing the intensive flattening rifle, as long as it is not a fool, will not take the initiative to collide, not to mention the voice to remind the soldiers, the front is also the light armor to guide, the soldiers are very natural Divided into a stream of dice in front of the formation of Diony, along the gap between the small squares, ran to the rear.

Of course, there were also soldiers who slammed into the shield wall because of shoving and panic. They were stabbed by stab guns and screamed, but the Diaonian soldiers would not take back the stab guns and rescue the wounded. They stood by the positions. ,like a statue. The screams of the companions will also warn others to stop in front of the shield and not to collide.

"Catch up! Don't let them run away!..." Millefio, who was riding on the horse, followed the squadron and rushed forward. He shouted excitedly, and could not hear the soldiers running around.

He sat high immediately, and he was able to see that the soldiers of the sacred group were well trained. Even after the victory, they could still maintain a relatively complete formation, like a red tide, pushing forward. This is also related to the fact that most of the enemies fled directly and fled backwards, and there was no such thing as running around.

Whether it is Monte Adeno or Millefio, they only know that the Dionysian coalition built a camp on the hills on the east bank of the Pretara River, but what kind of arrangement is it? What kind of terrain is it here? They are not very clear. On the one hand, because they did not actively take the strong awareness of the environment around the battlefield and the enemy's information, on the other hand, Leo Tiddides, under the long-term influence of the "Diaonia Military Law," has the protection of his own army. Military secrets were not exposed to the initiative, so at the same time as the camp was built, he sent all the detectives and mountain detection teams, and even some light armies patrolled around the camp to expel Carthage's spies and shield the area around the camp. Information.

Therefore, when Milefio, who is in the middle of the battlefield, is chasing the enemy, he is not very clear that there is a hill on the left and right sides of it, with enemy camps on it, and he does not know. There is a larger hill outside the three miles ahead, blocking the way they are going, and the real enemy of Carthage, the army of Dionia, is stationed on this hill. Now, these three hills are like giant crabs that have opened their cheeks, waiting for the squadron to introduce the uninformed Carthaginians into its hungry mouth.

The company led by Diocassis is divided into four small squares, the top two and the rear two. Diocassis stands in the center of the rear square, through the gap between the front squares. Concentrate on the situation of the defeated soldiers.

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed, and through the gap between the Allied soldiers who lost their armor, he saw the Carthaginians wearing beautiful armor.

In accordance with the usual tactical principles of the Dionyrian Legion, the small squares of the rear squad should move forward quickly, filling in the gaps in the front row to form a complete dense square, but in this case, running at the end These squadrons will be intercepted before the rapid formation of the dynasty of the Dionysian army, sandwiched between the troops of Dionia and Carthage, and become the victims of the confrontation between the two armies.

However, the small phalanx of the detachments of the Eighth Army did not move. The soldiers put the long shield closer, and the rifle was tightened, but they remained firmly in the same place.

This is not because they have to take care of these poor Allied soldiers, but because this is the tactic of Commander Leo Tiddides.

Some of the sacred soldiers who were chasing saw the dense array of stabbing guns in front, and stopped the pace of advancement with surprise, but they were swayed by the comrades in the back and could not help themselves, so they could only protect themselves with a round shield. , spear spears to the newly emerged enemies; and some of the sacred soldiers followed the squadrons into the gap between the small squares, and then were blocked by the next small square, some of the sacred soldiers Blindly followed the squadron and turned to the next gap...

"There are enemies in front!!"

"It's a Deonian!!"

......

The soldiers’ panicked screams passed to Milefio’s ear, and he rode straight to see more clearly: the Dionia soldiers in black armor gathered together in a dense array of small squads, The impact of the sacred soldiers is like a small island in the torrent, and there is danger of flooding at any time...

Even if he knew that he had lost control of the sacred army, Millefio still waved his spear and shouted: "The warriors of Carthage, kill me and rush to the Diaonians!"

But in the eyes of Leo Tizides, who is halfway up the hill and overlooking the entire battlefield, the array of checkers arranged by the Eighth Army has divided the Carthage army, which is like a tidal wave, into countless trickles. The lack of organization and command, unable to form a joint force of the Carthaginians is unable to incite the tyrannical squad in the torrent of the sturdy Dionysian squad!

"Let the reserve team close!" Leo Tizides issued an order.

The adjutant Mukhlu hesitated a little: "Would you like to wait any more? After the soldiers of the Allies escaped -"

Leo Tizides looked indifferent: "The situation is that all the Allied soldiers have escaped, and some of the Carthaginians will run to the rear of the array, adding unnecessary trouble to our soldiers' next battles~www.novelmtl .com~ I have given them the opportunity to blame them for not running fast enough!"

"Yes!" Mukrlu no longer said more, immediately accepted the order.

"In addition, inform the generals of the allies, seize the time to gather the broken soldiers, and quickly lead them back to their camps to resist the enemy's upcoming attack."

"Hey!..." Gao Sheng’s army sounded loudly on the mountainside.

Team officers at all levels of the reserve team who have been re-edered by the head of the army in advance have commanded the small squares of the various units behind the entire array, and they slowly move forward and backward together.

The torrent of the squadron and the chase has passed through multiple gaps and turned to the rear. The impact on the small square has been weakened. There are stab guns and long shield defenses, accompanied by the screams of the enemy and friendly soldiers. The final Legion reserve team relied on a dense array of 50 people, and had almost no obstacles to smoothly enter the gap in front. Together with the small squares in front of the formation, they formed a thickness of only four columns, but they were about two long. The dam in the road completely cut off the torrent.
