v9 Chapter 86： Battle of Lextra (continued)

"The Spartans will be defeated by us!" Ipamironda's strong self-confidence infected the generals around them. They quickly led the troops to follow Ipamironda's plan and began to form a formation in front of the camp.

Due to the small number of Pioxia coalition troops, their entire array is shorter than the Spartan coalition array, and its thickness is very thin. The only exception is the left wing, because the front row is the Thebes squad led by Pelopidas, followed by the heavy infantry of Thebes led by Ipamironda, with a column thickness of up to 50 columns.

And Ipamironda deliberately waited for the right wing and the middle road to be arranged before starting to arrange the left wing. As soon as the left was lined up, he ordered the offensive to sound, so that even if the Spartans felt something was wrong, they would have no time to adjust the formation.

The bugle sounded, and the holy team led by Pelopidas led the entire left wing to move forward quickly, while the middle and right wing troops deliberately slowed down under the prior instructions of Ipamirunda, making the left wing suddenly burst In front, the entire infantry formation is like an iron hammer struggling to swing down, the hammer head is the left wing.

However, it was the cavalry who first started fighting. Ipamironda concentrated the cavalry in front of the middle road in advance, and when King Sparta Cliombrotos saw it, he naturally concentrated his own cavalry in front of the middle road to fight against it.

When the bugle sounded and the infantry of both sides were still advancing, the cavalry of the two sides were already fighting together. The Pioxia cavalry, with the caesarean cavalry as the main force, was significantly stronger than the Spartan cavalry, and soon defeated it.

Under the intentional drove of the Pioxia Allied Cavalry, the Spartan Allied Cavalry had to retreat in the direction of the center and the left wing, which hindered the forward speed of these two partial infantry arrays, and the right wing Spartan phalanx Gradually break away.

The Spartan king in the formation ca n’t see that the array is out of touch, but he can see that the cavalry on the front side has been defeated. However, for the Spartans, the cavalry has never been the main force of combat. The Greek invincible relies on the Spartan warriors who have received military training since childhood and experienced countless battles, and at the forefront are the King ’s Guards. They are the elite of the elite. The admiration of the Bata people (the Spartan King Guard ’s establishment is 300 people, but the war has continued in recent years, and the Spartan population has declined sharply. It can no longer maintain this number. At this time, only 100 people are in the array), so King Bada, like the surrounding Spartan fighters, was unmoved by the defeat of the cavalry, and still firmly believed that victory ultimately belonged to them.

When they saw that the Thebes were not far away from them, the Spartans roared and began to charge.

At the same time, the Thebes San team also launched a charge under the leadership of Pelopidas. The weapons and equipment of the soldiers of the Holy Team are no different from the heavy infantry behind them, but they have been training or fighting in recent years, and have defeated Spartan soldiers in small-scale battles many times. Or the spirit of fighting is far superior to other Thebes civic soldiers, not to mention that fighting side by side with lovers is the sublimation and blending of emotions, so as the speed of the charge accelerates, their fighting spirit is also climbing sharply .

Therefore, when the forefront infantry of the two sides slammed together, the Thebes holy team even competed with the Spartan King Guard in strength and skill.

However, when the successors of the two sides pressed up, the gap gradually emerged. Compared with the column of 50 people, the strength gap was obvious. This gap was reflected in the push between the two sides in the battle. The Spartan side with fewer people can only step back under strong pressure, and the originally dense array gradually became loose.

The Thebes soldiers bravely squeezed into the gap, trying to expand the gap and destroy the shield. They had no fear of the spears that the Spartans kept coming out because they wanted to show their courage to their lovers and defeat the Spartans. It is undoubtedly enough to boast of a lifetime, and they believe that even if they fully attack and reduce their defense, their lover will resist everything for them.

The brave offensive of the Thebes holy team without fear of life and death and the strong squeeze of the super thick column made the Spartan soldiers continuously injured and fell, and the array began to become fragmented. The worst thing was that their king was in trouble.

Cleome Brotus, who was in front of the battle line, just thrust the lance into the chest of the soldier of the Thebes squadron who rushed in front of him. With a person's name.

Immediately afterwards, another Thebis holy soldier next to the soldier rushed up with tears in his eyes, ignoring the bayonet from the King's Guard, and flung himself up, and he caught Klimb, who was caught off guard. Rotus fell to the ground.

King Sparta rolled his helmet to the side and watched the soldier bite into his throat viscerally even though he was thrust into the back by several bayonets ...

The king is dead! The Spartans established their country by martial arts. Except for the battle of Onsen Pass, which has too great strength, the king who died in other battles has never had it, but today this tragedy happened. How great is the fighting against the Spartans. . What's more, now they are facing the terrible Thebes like crazy monsters, plus the number of head-to-head confrontation is less than the other, the Greek Spartan warriors known for their bravery are timid, firstly the black slaves The soldiers began to flee, followed by the Piriasi, and finally the real Spartans also threw away their shield spears and turned to escape ...

The right-wing Spartan phalanx was defeated, and the soldiers desperately fled back to the camp above the hill.

At this time, the middle road and the left have been in contact with the enemy, and they still have the upper hand in the battle, but the Spartan coalition has always been based on the Spartans. Now that the Spartans have lost, the Allied forces still have ideas. In combat, they hurriedly retreated.

Although the Thebes army defeated the Spartans, the soldiers tried their best and were very tired, and the Spartan Allied forces were almost unharmed, and the number was still more than the Thebes coalition, so Ipamirunda He dared not continue to attack the Spartan coalition camp, and he also returned to the camp.

At the end of the Battle of Ruktra, there were about 1,000 Lasidi Dreamer fighters in this battle, including 400 Spartan fighters. The soldiers of the Thebes squad also killed and injured 200 people, accounting for 2 of its establishment. / 3, although not many people died in the battle, but this battle is actually a competition of the power of the two city-states of Thebes and Sparta, and Thebes won.

Even many Thebes who came to the battlefield could n’t believe that they had won. After returning to the camp, they cheered with joy and, under the leadership of Pelopidas, forcibly carried Ipamironda in the camp. It took a week to express their joy and gratitude in their hearts.

The Spartan coalition camp was shrouded in the haze of defeat. Although their number was still greater than that of Thebes, the king of Sparta was killed and the army was headless. Although some Spartans were unwilling, they had to According to traditional practice, the messengers were sent to Camp Thebes to request a temporary truce to bury the dead, which in effect admitted failure.

After burying the dead, both sides dispatched messengers.

The Spartan coalition messengers should rush back to Sparta as soon as possible, report the defeat to the Council of Elders, and ask them to admit new commanders and send reinforcements in order to rescue them from Piosia. Although the war dead King Cleo Brotus left a safe retreat for them-Port Clius, the morale of the army was afraid of being attacked by the Thebis Retreating alone, still staying in the camp on the hill.

The Thebes sent three messengers, one to Athens, one to Thessaly, and one to Dionysia.

The messenger rushed to Athens first because it was the closest to Thebes. When the messenger wearing a crown of flowers declared loudly to the Athens Parliament: "The Thebes army defeated the Spartan army and killed Sparta King Cleome Brotus! ... "

This amazing news led to the silence of the whole venue. For these elites in Athens, the victory of Thebes made them more afraid of Thebes.

Callistratus did not expect that the Bis could actually defeat Sparta, so he and Iphicrates inquired the messenger in detail, even though the messenger responded briefly, they also felt: Debbie Although Slovakia won, the results were not too great, and according to the character of the Spartans, they will inevitably retaliate, and the severity of the war will increase.

Although this makes Kallistratus secretly happy ~ www.novelhall.com ~ also worried that Athens will be involved in the mire of war again.

The second place that Thebes Courier arrived was Philae. After all, the port in the north of the Piosia area could take a boat directly to Philae, and the distance was not too far away.

After Jason got the news, he danced. He immediately summoned cavalry and infantry and declared in his mouth that he would help his ally Thebes.

Two days later, with 8,000 infantry and 2,000 cavalry, he vigorously headed south from the land and went straight to the hot spring pass.

Originally, he thought that there would be a fierce battle at the Onsen Pass. Who knew that the Spartan coalition led by Cleom Brotus had attacked the Pioxia area before and called for garrisons in various places in Central Greece to come to meet. The Spartan garrison dispatched most of them, and after learning of the news of the defeat, the soldiers left behind felt lonely and in a dangerous situation and voluntarily retreated.

Yiasong easily occupied this very important strategic place, leaving 500 soldiers stationed, and then led the **** cavalry, waiting for the advance of the large troops, and quickly passed the irreconcilable territory of the Phophis .
