The Petchi warrior screamed, leaned forward, lost stability, and screamed and rolled down the hill.
Chipert quickly rolled to the left and avoided the spear of the spear...
Such a situation was staged from time to time on the Petchi's defense line, forcing the Puchettis to retreat involuntarily, and the javelin that naturally casts on the Diaonian soldiers was greatly reduced.
"The seventh brigade, good!" Behind Leo Tizides, there were soldiers who claimed to praise.
"Accelerate the speed! Climb up!..." This opportunity, in the center of his small square, Pamanius loudly urged.
The flag-bearer general flag swung forward continuously.
Leo Tizides and his teammates watched the light shields stand alone and how can they lag behind, so they collaborated and struggled to climb up. The height of 30 meters was quickly trampled under their feet, and the light shields had retired. On the two sides of the small square, there are only enemies left in front of them.
"Hades!!!!" the soldiers shouted the name of the Alliance patron, and raised the shield to welcome it...
........................
The troops of Trephias and Tudpres rushed to the right-wing position. Usually, they also need to spend a long time to reorganize the queue in order to launch an offensive, but in the case that the Dionysian army has already fought, they are also stimulated by this speed.
Because there were no enemies in front, Trifias and Tudpres mixed the light infantry into the phalanx to enhance the thickness of the entire phalanx and hurriedly climbed the mountain in a more scattered formation.
The deserted of more than 20 meters high can easily go up, they will attack the enemy's flank to decide the victory of this battle.
But when they were confident and easy to step on the hillside, a large number of enemies suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain.
Mesapi cavalry! Trifias was shocked and calmed down: the Mesapi cavalry was powerful, but it was not flat, there was not enough space for them to gallop, they dare to face the heavy infantry? !
The Heraklia-Meta Pontum coalition continues to move upwards.
The cavalry at the top of the began to throw a short javelin.
Just as the Greeks defended their shields, many people began to exclaim: "The cavalry! Mesapi cavalry behind us!!"
The soldiers only heard the rumbling of the back, and the team's Mesapi cavalry stalked the mountain from a distance and began throwing javelins at the back of the Greek soldiers who were climbing the hills.
Suddenly, this time, the Herakliya-Meta Pontum coalition was somewhat confused.
In fact, there are not only Mesapi cavalry, but also the Puchetti cavalry, which has a full 1300 ride. At this moment, the cavalry on the top of the mountain began to caress the head of the mount, attached to the body and whispered something to love, and there was a lot of disappointment in their eyes, and soon their expression became firm.
"Lukaon!!!" The Pucciti cavalry raised his hand.
"Lukaon!!!" Mesapeee cavalry also responded one after another. King Lukaon dared to tease the Greek Zeus. Although he was turned into a wolf, most of his descendants thought that he was a hero. He would scream his name before the war to boost his morale. The Mesapi people have gradually been abandoned due to the influence of Hellenization, and now they are picking up again.
The cavalry on the top of the mountain clasped the horse's neck with both hands, and the legs slammed into the horse's belly. Hundreds of horses began to run down the hillside with a loose formation. The speed was getting faster and faster. From time to time, the cavalry brought the horse to the ground. But it does not affect the speed and fighting spirit of the cavalry.
"Hold... Shield defense..." Trephias saw this situation, and for a time, his mind was blank.
In the eyes of the soldiers of the Herakliya-Meta Pontum coalition, it is like facing a row of boulder rolling down from the mountains, and the powerful kinetic energy that roars from the people! Just as they were horrified and wanted to dodge, the cavalry had already slammed into the square. Suddenly, the horses were called, the horses were flying, and the Greek soldiers rolled all over the ground, almost no standing... ...
The Greek square was instantly destroyed.
..............................
Davers quickly got a return from Tolmide: a large number of enemy rides suddenly appeared on the right wing.
He immediately felt a little uneasy and acted decisively: "Izam, lead your brigade to immediately reinforce the troops of Trephias and Tudpres, and after defeating the enemy cavalry, continue to attack the enemy's flanks!"
"Yes!" Izzam finally waited for the task. The excited left fist slammed his right chest. After he finished his military service to Davers, he ran down the hill and came to the ramp. The opponent shouted: "Brothers, follow me. Go killing the enemy!"
In the cheers, the reconnaissance battalion soldiers held the small one's leather shield in the left hand, and the short sword that was only given to them in the right hand, and hurried to the right wing.
攸Marcas does not understand why these Dionyns are so keen to participate in the battle, but they are still shocked by their high morale, secretly determined: Tarantum is not forced, try not to fight the love of Daioni A conflict.
"Davers, the Mesapi people's cavalry is even more powerful, but also against the Greek heavy infantry, not to mention the mountain is here, you do not need to send troops to reinforce." 攸Marcas could not help but advise.
"What we all know, how can the Mesapi people who are good at cavalry not know, but they still send cavalry, and there is a problem." Daves said calmly.
攸Marcas listened to him and said that he had some concerns in his heart.
Previously, the commander Tormid had reported the information that was sent back to the two legions and the rear of the squadrons, and reported to Daves: "The team led by Amintas will be in the middle of the valley. The Mesapi heavy infantry forced back and forth... The first and second legions of the left and right wings also had a slight advantage over the top-up Petchi, and after the two light infantry battalions withdrew from the frontal battle, According to your instructions, you have already started to join forces and then go back to the left (because the right wing has the armies of Heraclea and Metapontom) to attack the enemy's flanks..."
Under the prevailing conditions of the whole line, Davers has realized that the enemy's strength is less than that of himself. This is the first time he has been in the battle since the Great Greece led the army. Therefore, he has the strength to send reinforcements. Kill any possible disadvantages in the bud.
........................
Petchi, the king of Petchi, never imagined that the current battlefield situation was exactly the opposite of what he had imagined. Not only did the Mesapi, who was heavily stationed in the lower part of the valley, forced to step back, even the proud Pucciti warriors occupied The obvious geographical advantage did not defeat the enemy.
Although it is in the stalemate stage, from the scene of the battle, this kind of stalemate can not last, because Tremooni knows that his warrior equipment is poor, and his own soldiers are few, before the soldiers were almost dispatched to assist the left wing, just to Make your array roughly equal in length to the enemy array to prevent the wings from being attacked. When the geographical advantage and the heroism of the warrior are not enough to block and defeat the enemy, the stalemate will only benefit the other party. Now, the only good news is that the cavalry has defeated the leftmost enemy.
Tremeni hopes that after they quickly dispel the enemy, they can help the left-wing forces defeat the enemy in the face, thus laying the victory for the battle.
At this time, Tremooni saw his detective rushing to the foot of the mountain, turned over and hurriedly ran to the mountains, and his heart passed a little uneasy.
"The king, there are more than a thousand enemies who have reinforced the left wing, and our cavalry has fallen into...a hard fight!"
In fact, the hard battle is only euphemistic. In fact, the Mepu mixed cavalry rushed down from the top of the mountain, smashing back and forth, defeating the Heraclea-Meta Pontum coalition, but when they chase the defeat, because of the mountain road It was narrow, and the enemy and the enemy were mixed together. Some of them were blocked. The speed advantage of the cavalry was completely lost. It was only the Greek soldiers who lost their courage and only fled and did not resist. But when Izam’s brigade bypassed the mountain road and surrounded it from the mountainsides, the disaster of the Meppe cavalry came.
Riding on the horse without the saddle, killing in the same place, the riders can not make the full force against the Diaonians, but it is almost impossible to withdraw immediately from the crowded road. The soldiers of the Mountain Investigation Brigade under the protection of the leather shield ~EbookFREE.me~ the short sword in the hands can not only sting, but also hurt the horse. The routing Greek soldiers got help, and they gradually recovered their morale and began to fight... The Meppe cavalry was dead, and it was not far from the ruin.
"What?! How can the Greeks still have troops to fight and fight!!" Tremney was staring at the detective. In this era, the city-state operations have not retained the habit of the reserve team. All the forces will be pressed together during the battle. Therefore, Tremeni dared to take advantage of the cavalry attack in the terrain that is obviously not conducive to the cavalry. Now his greatest victory hopes. It was annihilated in this way.
He walked a few steps forward and looked across the top of the mountain. It was faintly visible with the shining golden light of the flag. He knew that the enemy's coach was there.
"The military genius of Megatron Nanyi..." Tremeni whispered and his mood was low.
"Da Wang, what should we do now?" Pullo saw Tremani's ambition and asked with a busy voice.
How to do? retreat? Now that the two armies are strangling together, they can easily retreat. This will only increase the Puchetti’s casualties, and they will still be a small Dean! This is said to be the emerging city-state coalition army with strong fighting power. If you can avoid fighting with it in the future, try to avoid it... Tremney’s heart has raised a bit of fear, regretting that he should not be arrogant at first. The ambush Tarantum should be chosen to hand over the task of intercepting the Dionysian reinforcements to the Mesapi people...
"...etc." For a long time, Tremeni spit out a word.
Pullo glimpsed, and soon understood that Tremani said that after waiting for the Mesapi people to solve the Tarantum, they would come to reinforcements as soon as possible. This is to pin their hopes on others. This is not a special The usual practice of Le Manoni!
Pullo’s thoughts in his heart: But in case the Mesapi people are late!
