v6 Chapter 138： Continuous operations (3)

"Transfers! Commanders!"

"General, what?"

"You will go to inform Marcus and let him lead the soldiers who are still carrying food in the battle boat to return to the camp immediately. First, cooperate with the defenders in the camp to defeat the enemy!" said Diomelas, then I felt that I was not at ease. I ordered again: "Let the troops stop crossing the river, unload the bags, and return to the camp to fight!"

As soon as the order was changed, the Tarantum soldiers who were heading for the pontoon were somewhat reluctant: why would others be able to stay leisurely on the other side, and they would have to go back to fight? !

With this kind of psychology, they are lazy and the speed of assembly is very slow.

Diomeras was anxious in his heart. Although he left 4,000 defenses in the camp outside, he was more and more fierce to hear the shouting. He was not only worried about the left-behind troops, but also saw the troops in front of him so dragged and angered. Mindfulness, finally made up my mind, and did not hesitate to offend these citizens, but also issued strict orders to let them go back to defense.

He led the **** just before the pontoon. A Clipper shuttled to the Agri River, which was almost blocked by a three-layer paddle warship. He docked on the bank of the river. The captain jumped off the boat and stumbled to Diomelas. While running, shouting: "General, not good! The fleet of Dionia is coming! There are still many transport ships behind them, full of soldiers!..."

When I was in the mind of Diomeras, I suddenly had no time to think about it: Why did the Dionysian fleet after the war not rest?

At this point, there is only one thought in the heart of Diomelas: the Diaonians want to surround us!

The soldiers who crossed the river heard the captain's shouts and suddenly became stunned. "Come across the river! Cross the river!..." The soldiers yelled in panic, you pushed me, the team began to stir up...

When Di Amlas set the gods, seeing this chaotic scene, and immediately dispelling the decision to return to the camp defense, he still hesitated in his heart: Do you want to abandon the 4,000 soldiers and immediately retreat? !

But soon he will not have to consider this issue.

"The Diaonians are coming in!!"

"Let's run!!"

"The big battalion has been broken!!"

......

There was a horrified and cluttering shout on the east side of the camp. The voice was getting louder and louder. Even when he returned to Omeras, he could see the broken soldiers. This surprised him: the camp was so easily broken. ! !

In fact, the reason for the rapid defeat of the Tarantum garrison was simple: the seventh legion of the Dionynia had been carefully prepared in advance, and when attacking, Matonis as the head of the army actually charged, the soldiers who had been stimulated by him before. None of them are willing to lag behind. Their swift and fierce attack made the remaining Tarantum soldiers feel very difficult to defend. At this time, their fighting spirit had already been taken away by the retreating troops. There was no sufficient mental preparation. The first thought that emerged from the frustration was: Why did they all retreat, and we still have to fight here? !

So when the Herakliya army that followed, from the two sides of the camp to the soldiers in the package, the Tarantum soldiers almost collapsed.

"Retreat! Quick retreat!!..." Dai Amiras has only this choice at the moment.

In fact, he did not need to order it. The soldiers saw that the situation was not good and they were already retreating...

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

Midorades led 70 three-layer paddle warships and arrived at the sea near Heraklia to get a report from the Clippers: Tarantum’s ships were gathering at the mouth of the Agri River.

After hearing the news, Midorades immediately ordered the fleet to fan out and prepare to wipe out the battleship of Tarantum.

The Tarantum warship was panicked and wanted to sail off the river bank. Even because of the squeezing and collision in the river channel, even small warships were overturned in the river, and the fleet that fled the emperor did not have the heart to salvage the companions. They have only one thought: escape the encirclement of the Dionysian fleet and flee back to the port of Tarantum!

However, too many foods were piled up in the cabins of the Tarantum warships, which greatly affected the flexibility and speed of the warships. Compared with the installation of the "crow suspension bridge" and the heavy infantry, it was somewhat cumbersome. For the Nigerian fleet, there is not much advantage. However, in the case of the rapid approach of the fleet of the Dania, the sailors of Tarantum could not even lay out their hands and throw away the cumbersome grains, waiting for their fate to be captured.

Daves's ship did not participate in the inter-fleet battle, and it followed the subsequent fleet of troops landing on the shore not far from the north of the Agri River.

When Amintas jumped off the boat, he immediately ordered the trumpeter to blow the attacking horn. Then he did not wait for all the soldiers to arrive and reorganize the formation before attacking. Instead, he directly led the 50 soldiers on the same boat to the near end. The Tarantum army, which is retreating, is killed.

The Seychelles commander's Denonia fleet has won a big victory with the help of the First Legion, and the Second Legion has not performed any performance so far, which makes Amintas, who has always been competitive, how to endure.

The fierce momentum of the squadrons led by Amintas actually scared the Tarantum soldiers who were a little scared on the north bank of the Agri River, letting them forget that their number is much higher than the number of enemies on the face. . Just as they were fighting against the tyrannical organization, other detachment soldiers of the Second Division of the Dionynia also rushed to each other, like a sharply dagger on the weak body of the river crossing forces on the north shore of Tarantum, Taran. The Thum soldiers collapsed and fled in the air. Some soldiers even tried to cross the river and flee south.

Armintas commanded the troops to chase the south to the south, and there were constant soldiers of the Tarantum being squeezed into the river...

The panic will only lead to more confusion, and the bridge of a pontoon will be broken due to overwhelming, causing the entire pontoon to fall apart. Hundreds of people fell into the river in panic, carrying a load and floating... All the Tarantu seeing this image The soldier’s heart was completely cold.

The 12,000-strong coalition of the Seventh Army Corps and the Hercules Army on the South Bank continued to pursue the Tarantum in the rout.

The Tarantum soldiers who lost their fighting spirit completely rushed to escape, and the entire army was completely chaotic. Even if the two consuls yell in the crowds, it is difficult to organize them again and block the offensive of the Dionyrian coalition. Therefore, once they retired, they were all rushed to the bank of the Agri River.

In the case that several pontoons were completely blocked, they faced the fierce pursuit of the Deonian coalition forces behind them. Some Tarantum soldiers even took off their armor and jumped into the river, and the river was full of eyes. It’s a floating head, just like a big ant nest thrown into a small otter, it’s shocking.

The soldiers who did not go down the river saw the same panicked teammates on the other side. Behind them were the black troops that were gradually arranged and surrounded by them. The Tarantums were completely desperate. They shed tears and dropped their weapons. Turned to surrender to the equally daunting Dionyrian coalition who is attacking them...

At dusk, the Tarantum army was chased by the most brave two generals of the Dionynian army, and was eventually encircled on both sides of the Agri River pontoon, except for the team that initially crossed the river. Thousands of people ran away, more than 12,000 people were captured, more than 2,000 people were killed or injured under the shield spear or died of mutual trampling, and more than 2,000 people drowned in the river.

In addition, the Dionysian fleet also captured more than 50 warships in Tarantum, of which 35 were three-layered paddles. Because the Tarantum Fleet had no intention of fighting and its resistance was weak, its sailors were not subjected to heavy casualties, and the number of sailors captured was close to 7,500.

At the same time, the Dionysian army also seized a large amount of supplies, including dozens of tons of grain.

The Daiyan army lost little in this battle, and it can be said that it is a hearty victory.

Therefore, after learning about the situation, Davers was very happy. When he saw the chief general of Heraclia, Trephias, he had a sincere smile on his face and said: "Trivia Stuart, I thank you on behalf of all the people of Dionia! If it is not for you, Heraclia bravely blocked the attack of Tarantum, I am afraid that the army of Tarantum has already rushed into the territory of Turui!"

Terry Feas quickly and modestly said: "Daveus adults ~ www.novelhall.com ~ We Hercula is only self-defense. But we should sincerely thank Dionia, you are in such a difficult situation, I also sent reinforcements in time. In order to defend Heraclia, it caused the destruction of the land of Amendola. I really don’t know... how can I..."

Daves had to comfort him at this time: "We are allies, and we should help each other. Fortunately, Hades blessed, the Tarantums have been basically annihilated, and we have no big losses. This is the most worthwhile. Happy thing!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect the victory to come so fast!" Trephias looked at Davers with a kind of admiring eyes and exclaimed: "Daveus, I didn't even think that you Dionya actually defeated. The Syracuse Navy, this is amazing!"

Daves smiled and said softly: "If the Syracuse fleet dares to commit another crime, we will defeat it! From now on, the Taranto Bay should also be replaced!"

Dave's domineering words made Trifoas completely safe about the safety of the sea: "Daveus, you...when are you going to attack Tarantum?" Terry Feas asked euphemistically. He actually wants to know the general battle plan of Davers. After Davis returned to Turui, just two days, the entire Great Greece war situation has undergone such a big change, which has restored the confidence of the allies of Dionia.
