With the roar of the soldiers of the Dionysian Army, nearly 20,000 javelins flew out, covering the sky. The assault of the Spartan coalition soldiers stopped instantly, accompanied by a continuous scream.
The shocked Spartan coalition soldiers had just removed the shield, and they were shocked to find that there were countless javelins.
Although before the battle, Agsi Lawst reminded the mercenary generals to be careful that the heavy infantry of the Dionysian Corps would throw javelins when approaching, but mercenaries who had never had experience with the Dionysians They are still poorly prepared.
While the formation at the forefront of the Spartan army was disrupted by the javelin rain, the soldiers of the legion shouted the name of Hades and launched a charge. The four-mile Dionysian army lined up and crashed into the mountains. The Spartan coalition.
The soldiers of the Sixth Legion were holding their breath, because they heard the team officers say that the commander had the Fourth Legion on the right wing against the Spartan soldiers, the First Legion was on the left wing, and their Sixth Legion was on the left. The middle way is just to contain.
Why can our Sixth Army only do the check? ! ...The soldiers vowed to let the young prince see the power of the Sixth Legion, so they roared, focused their whole body on the left hand shield, and slammed into the enemy who was struggling to restore the formation. The gun lightning usually passes through the cracks opened, and accurately hits the enemy hiding behind the shield...
The unreserved and full-strength offensive of the Sixth Legion soldiers at the beginning made the front line of the Spartan formation incompletely lined up due to javelin attacks even more chaotic.
The charge of the soldiers of the Fourth Army was reserved because their opponents were famous Spartan fighters and had to be prepared. But when they rushed forward and started fighting, the Spartans' counterattack was not sharp, and they were also passive under the rapid attacks of the soldiers. Although the soldiers were relieved, they were a little disappointed.
On the left, the soldiers of the First Legion shouldered the important task of winning the battle. They were also full-strength attacks, but the mercenaries who had just been hit by the javelin rain were slower behind the overall team, which greatly eased the First Legion. The soldiers charged, and at the same time they retaliated counter-attacks from time to time in a solid defense, causing some casualties of the front-line soldiers of the First Army, forcing the soldiers to stop advancing and begin patiently fighting with the enemy.
In general, the Dionysian army relied on the light infantry's long-range attack and the heavy infantry's javelin strike. It took the lead from the beginning, making the Spartan army somewhat passive in the frontal confrontation.
But Agsi Raus thickened the columns of the left wing and the center line before the war, relying on a stronger pushing force to withstand the impact of the legionnaires, and gradually stabilized the battle.
When the fighting between the two sides returned to the balance, the reconnaissance rushed back to the command center and reported to Croto Kataks: The cavalry on both sides had defeated the Spartan cavalry and were pursuing.
Croto Kataks finally showed a smile on his nervous face. Although he knew that the cavalry won, but the number of cavalry would not play a big role in the battle of tens of thousands of people, but it was a good sign.
He was about to say something to Prentals and relieve the tension in his heart. Suddenly he heard a faint sound of a bugle sound, and he was suddenly surprised that he had heard it wrong.
But the trumpet sound continued, becoming clearer.
He subconsciously looked around the battlefield filled with morning fog and hustle and bustle, unable to distinguish the source of the trumpet for a moment.
At this time, Prentals had issued a serious order to Mukruk: "This is not our bugle! You immediately sent out several staff officers, scattered around to investigate, as soon as possible to find out the source of the bugle!"
"Yes!" Mukru also realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately rushed to perform the task.
"Master Printols, will it be the Spartan reinforcements?!" Crotokatax asked with great anxiety.
Prentals turned around and pointed to the rear, with a calm expression of comfort: "Your Highness, you can rest assured that even if the Spartan reinforcements come, we can defeat him!"
There is also a large phalanx at the rear and on both sides of the command center, including not only the 3,000 heavy infantry of the Seventh Army, but also three light armor brigades and mountain reconnaissance brigades of other legions, a total of 7,000 people, Pring Tols used a quarter of the entire army as a reserve team. This decision is indeed too bold, but now it gives Kloto Kataks confidence.
Shortly after the departure of several staff officers, the reconnaissance ride returned: "Master Commander, about 4,000 or 5,000 soldiers rushed out of the city of Taglia, blowing the bugle and advancing toward the battlefield!"
"It's the bugle that the Tagyas are blowing!" Klotokatax suddenly realized.
"We saved Tegoya, but the Tegoya did not send someone out to contact us, thanking us, the battle had begun for a while, before sending troops out..." Mukru complained softly.
"The Tagaeans were attacked by the Spartan army before, and the loss should not be small, and such a large-scale battle happened at the door of their home. It is understandable to be vigilant..." Crotocatax also For the sake of the Teagues, I explained a few words, and then said excitedly: "Now they not only participated in the battle, but also sent so many soldiers, this will definitely help us win as soon as possible!"
"Bring the map of the battle at this moment!" said Prentals.
A staff member immediately handed over the wooden board, which was a simplified battlefield situation map based on various battlefield information detected by Zhen Qi before.
Prentals took a look, and his face immediately fell: "Our cavalry has defeated the Spartan cavalry, you have not corrected it in time!"
"Not yet... it's too late."
"The information on the battlefield changes rapidly, and it will slow down from time to time. How can we give the commander a good aid!" Prentals severely criticized.
"Sir, I'm wrong, I will change it immediately!" The staff lowered his head, ashamed to get the board back.
Printols didn't give him immediately, but instead took the board and asked Shen Qi: "Where is the army of Tiger?"
Today’s Dionysia scouts are specially trained. They not only have good riding skills, strong sense of direction, sharp eyes, they are good at observing and estimating the number of troops, but they are also good at recognizing pictures and drawing... so he just glanced at it. On the board, he pressed his finger up without hesitation: "They are here!"
Pringles took a closer look: the Tagya army was behind the left flank of the Dionysian formation and not far south of the city of Taglia.
"His Royal Highness, we should immediately send someone to inform the Tegeans and let them go behind the Spartan formation and attack Sparta’s right wing." Printols suggested to Croto Kataks , Marking on the side of the board.
Crotocatax immediately understood that he looked around and said, "In order to show respect for the Teagues, Mukru, please go for a trip."
"Comply."
"Wait! Let the guide named Carisenos of Mandinia go with you, so that it is easier to communicate with the Teagues."
It should be said that Kloto Kataks was very thoughtful, and Mukru was glad to take the order.
Prentals looked thoughtfully to the north, and because the dust and fog hindered his vision, he could not see the Taqian army two miles away.
There was some uneasiness in his heart, but he couldn't remember where it came from.
Agassius also heard the bugle that kept ringing. He stood up again and looked to the north. The face of Gu Jingwu finally made waves: "The Tagaan finally came out. Our soldiers should act too."
Up to now, Max, who is at the forefront of the formation, was more and more surprised. The soldiers under his command had tried their best, but the enemy opposite not only fell down, but through the narrow eyes of the Corinthian helmet, he could feel The indifference and bloodthirsty revealed in the pair of sharp eyes, it seems that they still have the leeway.
Where did the Spartans recruit these soldiers? so smart! ...Max realizes that the First Army will experience a hard fight.
At this moment, he heard a roar from the opposite side, and the roar was getting louder and louder. He subconsciously tightened the long shield, and the soldiers under the opponent shouted: "Pay attention to defense! Pay attention to defense!..."
But what happened next was completely unexpected, and the enemies on the other side turned around in a roar and fled.
Although the forefront soldiers of the First Army were a little dazed, they immediately cheered and pursued.
……………………………………………………
Mukru just left on horseback~EbookFREE.me~The rear command center of the Dionysian army received good news: the Spartan formation was defeated on the right, and the First Army was chasing.
"Great! The First Legion is worthy of being the strongest legion in the Kingdom. It seems that we have won the battle!" Croto Katakston danced with excitement. The previous tensions and worries had disappeared. Without a trace, he even suggested: "Master Printols, do you want to send all the reserve teams? Otherwise, they won't make any achievements and the battle will be over."
But Printols was not ecstatic, but rather confused: "Strange! According to the report of the previous Scouting Report, Sparta’s right-wing defense was tenacious, and the First Army did not take advantage of anything, and without any signs, how? Suddenly they broke?"
"Do you suspect that they are defeating?!" Crotocatax was shocked, and then shook his head again: "This is impossible! In such a big battle, thousands of people defeated at the same time, even our legionnaires. It’s also difficult to control well. If you are not careful, it will easily lead to the collapse of the entire formation, not to mention the temporary patchwork mercenaries."
