Chapter 24: Up-and-coming

Davers saw that his abdomen was so huge that he could even see the intestines inside, knowing that he was alive, but he couldn’t bear to give up. He said to the soldier next to him: "I will send him to the medical camp of the Menon Barracks. Firth let it be sent."

"Health care camp?"

"Oh, I know!" Someone answered, so the soldiers carried the wounded soldiers, ready to cross the Clearus military camp and go south. Others are at a loss to take advantage of Davers.

Davers said anxiously to them: "Go and inform the officers of the military camps, that the Persians violated their promises and slaughtered the Greek soldiers. The leaders who went to the talks may have been captured by the Persians, let them gather soldiers and prepare to fight! ”

The soldiers immediately rushed to their respective military camps.

"What happened to Davers?!" At this time, Xenophon arrived at the gate of the camp.

Davers quickly told him about the story.

Xenophon looked bleak and his eyes were full of remorse: "I also persuaded Prokhsinus before, but he did not listen, and I did not insist... Hey, so, Prokhsinus, he is afraid... "The sound of Xenophon's trembling is a little choked.

Daves nodded silently.

Xenophon looked at the Persian cavalry in front of him and said loudly: "We should immediately summon the whole army! Attack the Persian military camp and rescue the Prokhsinus!"

"This is not a good idea!" With a voice, a strong middle-aged man came over: "The soldiers have been killed many times with the Persians before, but we have been living with them peacefully during this time. Now you suddenly have to When the Persians fought, the soldiers were unacceptable for a while, let alone besieged the Persian military camp."

"At least you should drive away the Persian cavalry in front, and maybe save some of the soldiers out!" Daves reminded.

The man gave him a look and asked, "Who are you?".

"Davers, a soldier at the Menon Barracks."

"What to do is the team officer's business, do not need a soldier to guide!" The man yelled angrily.

Davers’s interest did not speak.

"Xenophon, you immediately go back to your military camp and inform Agarcia to bring the troops immediately." He ordered the Xenophon again.

Xenophon responded and turned and walked back. Davers immediately followed him and asked Irofen to know that the man was the deputy of the Klikus Tima Song.

The collection of the Clearus military camp was very slow. The soldiers came out of the tent slowly and slowly, while they were wearing the armor, they were still chatting with each other. Obviously, they still don’t know the danger, and Tima’s eagerness to go forward and fight again. Oh, it was hard to get together about 500 soldiers.

Daveus and Xenophon have not yet stepped out of the Clearus military camp. The other military battalion team officers also arrived with a few soldiers. They are: Kyiano of the Agias military camp, the military camp of Socrates. Zandiparis, Agassia of Proksunus... Mennon military camp has the most people, deputy officer Felicius, squadron leader Antonios, Capus, etc., of course, the soldiers also have the Hilos team. Their arrival gave Daves a sigh of relief.

After the confluence, some team officers still don’t know what happened. Some of the squadron leaders headed by Antonios in the Menon Barracks asked Divers to tell the story. The reason was because the whole thing was witnessed by him. .

Some team officers headed by Timothy Song were surprised: Davers was just an ordinary young soldier, and why the team officers of the Meron Barracks all showed respect for him.

Some people are curious to look at Davers, because some of the soldiers who went back to the letter screamed: The goddess of the Menon Barracks, Davers, prevented Clearus from going to the Persian military camp. The leaders did not listen to the gods. "The result was a disaster. It was quickly known to everyone.

Therefore, Davers faced a complex look of the people, and he would be brief and explain briefly.

The team officials quickly reached an agreement: immediately chased the Persian cavalry in front of the military camp, so that the soldiers who went out could return smoothly.

The soldiers began to line up and Daves returned to the Hilos team. At this time, Antonios in front of the queue shouted: "Daves, come to the front!"

Deavers glanced.

Then, Capps also began to shout.

"Go." Hilos encouraged him to nudge him, and his teammates looked at him with excitement.

Davers understood. His heart beat faster, but without resignation, laboriously pushed forward, the soldiers took the initiative to open a way for him.

"Your position is here." Antonios pulled him to the left side of Felicius - this is the front of the Menonian army and said to him seriously: "There may be negotiations with the Persians for a while, we need Your guidance!"

Antonios said to Felicius again: "Filey, take care of him for us!"

Felicius answered without hesitation: "Give me the peace of mind!"

For the first time in the position of the commander of the square array, Davers was both excited and unnatural. He turned to look at Felicius, and Felicius was just watching him and giving him a gentle smile. .

Previously, Davers had had several contacts with Felicius, and he learned something about him through Antonios and others. Davers had a preliminary impression of Filipinos: this is already four. The 15-year-old Sesari is a good old man who is proficient in military affairs and does not like to fight for fame and fortune. I can understand that Meinon, who has a strong desire to control, certainly will not pick an equally ambitious person to act as his adjutant. He must know that he often goes out, makes Persian power, accepts some employment tasks, and must do things in the military camp. Someone presided over and handled. Over time, there was a danger that the soldiers only recognized the adjutant and did not recognize him. Therefore, the good-tempered Felicius was his carefully selected adjutant. At this moment, it is undoubtedly cheaper to wear Daves, because Felicius has no objections to the position of the young commander, and his attitude is very friendly.

In the front of the military camp, the Greek mercenaries had about 700 heavy infantry and 200 light infantry. The heavy infantry was in front and the light infantry was behind. As the military number blew, the square began to move forward slowly. The Persian cavalry did not force it up, but instead retreated backwards, the stifling sound gradually became smaller, and the dust in front was gradually dissipating. From time to time, the Greek soldiers who were covered in dust ran back to the military camp, but more were comrades and bodies on the ground, and the sorrow and fear of the soldiers were increasing.

"The enemy is coming." Felicius whispered.

I saw a Persian team in front of them and walked slowly toward them. Daves was nervous and excited in his heart: Is it true that his first battle is about to begin?

When the two armies were about two hundred meters apart, a pair of cavalry rushed out to the front of the Greek army and shouted in Greek: "The Greeks across the street listened, let your officers Come up with the captain and listen to me reading the king's will!"

There was a commotion in the Greek phalanx, and the team officers whispered to each other, but no one came forward. The impression of the soldiers who had just been attacked was too deep, and Persian’s previous act of violating was alarming.

The Persians shouted again and the Greek army was still calm.

At this moment, a man walked out of the army, armed with a copper shield and a stab gun, and walked forward without hesitation.

"Who is that?! Be bold!!"

"That is the Daphus of our barracks! The deity of Hades Hades!"

"is that true?"

"Hey, he is so young!!"

......

The soldiers in the camps were curious about the arguments. When the team officers were still hesitating, Filipius chased him up. He promised Antonios that they should guarantee the safety of Davis. Then Xenophon also stepped out of the military array, and the young Davers dared to go forward, how could he fall behind.

"It’s too messy!" Tima Song snorted to cover up his embarrassment and strode forward. Subsequently, more than a dozen team officers, such as Zantei Parris, Kryano, and Agacia, went on.

The reason why Davers did this was not that he was not afraid of the attack of the Persian cavalry, but that he knew that when the mercenaries faced great difficulties and the soldiers were panicked, only those who dared to take risks and dare to take responsibility could be championed by the soldiers, even Forget his youth and have no experience.

He walked unhurriedly, always used the sides of the light to observe, and saw that other team officers had caught up, only slightly relieved, only then found that the hand holding the weapon was full of sweat.
