v9 Chapter 138： 1st Fleet Military Conference

The distinguished Chief of the First Fleet, with his hands on his hips, looked at the officers of his squadron, Gu Panzixiong's Shen Sheng said: "The day before yesterday we received a letter from Prince Croto Kataks, now Their situation is not so good, the Greek city-states are preparing to quietly unite against us Dionysia!

If the army on the ground cannot defeat Sparta as soon as possible, it will probably fall into the siege of the Greeks, but now that Sparta is aided by Persia, its strength has been strengthened, and the young prince dare not attack , So I wrote to us for help.

Now that the main force of the Spartans has been attracted to Tegya, the defensive force in their territory has been greatly weakened. It is our 1st Fleet that re-landed on the Spartan coast, captured Sparta, and created the greatest glory of our navy. Good time! Yesterday, let you go back and think for a day, how? Have you figured out a good solution? ! "

As soon as his words fell, Sefidorus, the commander of the 1st Fleet Infantry, stood up and said firmly: "My lord, I have a way to successfully land our fleet infantry and avenge the last dead brothers!"

"Hurry up and listen!" Seclion looked at his fleet infantry commander with a look of relief, glad that his fighting spirit had not been weakened by the last defeat.

"The reason why the last landing failed, I think there are several reasons." Sefidorus's low tone with a bit of regret: "First of all, we are underestimating the enemy, although the Spartans have failed, but they It also has a certain strength. We all saw that Sparta had at least 5,000 multiple infantrymen in battle that day. Our fleet of infantrymen are all light armored equipment. How can they fight against them on the front! According to the army just sent Letter, Sparta has at least more than 6,000 fighters leaving the territory and heading to Tagya, most of them heavy infantry, so that we will face much less offensive pressure on our next landing;

Secondly, the Spartans made a lot of stakes near the coast, which made our warships unable to approach the coast. They could only land by small boats, and the entire fleet was less than 100 ships. Each ship transports a maximum of 20 troops and cannot transport a large number of soldiers to the coast at once. When our fleet of infantry can only land on the coast in a loose formation, the Spartans have already arranged a dense phalanx to attack the soldiers who landed, and soon we will be defeated.

As far as I know, these squadrons are collecting cargo ships everywhere these days. It is said that the number has exceeded 200, which greatly improves our ability to send troops to the coast at one time.

In addition, our fleet of infantrymen also came up with a way. They can disembark at a place farther away from the coast and deeper in the water, and then wait in place until the arrival of the second and third troop transport boats, and the comrades After meeting and gathering into a square matrix, we will march towards the coast together—"

"But what if the Spartans attacked while our soldiers were still waiting?" a squadron chief questioned: "And the soldiers standing in the sea for a long time will consume a lot of physical strength in vain. "

Sefidorus smiled confidently: "My fleet of infantry are all good swimmers, good at fighting in the sea, and the Spartans want to fight in the sea, I can't ask for it. As for standing in the sea for a long time, I really will Some physical energy is lost, but that is always better than a small number of people who haven’t formed a line yet to launch an attack in a hurry.

Also, the last time we were unfamiliar with the sea conditions in the Gulf of Laconia, during the landing operation, the wind and waves suddenly increased, and the ballistas on the battleship could not accurately aim, so I did not give the infantry of the fleet very good help. I believe that this time there will not be such a bad situation. "

Secrian listened attentively and saw Sefidorus suddenly leaving without saying, and he was too busy to ask, "That's all?"

Sefidorus straightened his chest and said aloud: "Of course it is more than that. This time attacking Sparta, I suggest that adults should change their strategy. It is best to adopt His Majesty Daveus in the battle of the Trionto River. The strategy adopted-first send a small number of soldiers to cross the river, and then cooperate with the large forces to attack."

"Battle of the Trionto River?" Secrian looked back carefully, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and immediately asked, "Are there any specific measures?"

"In the past few days, I have specially surveyed the entire coast of the Spartan territory by boat." Sefidorus pointed to the simplified map of the Spartan sea drawn on the wooden table, and Shen Sheng said: "The middle is Sparta The focus of human defense is also the focus of our fleet's infantry attack.

The headland to the west is an extension of the Tegtos Mountains, and there is no place for landing, but the Spartans still have not relaxed their vigilance there because they have to guard against our sneak attacks on the Mesenian army.

The headland in the east is an extension of the Parnon Mountain Range, which is longer and narrower than in the west. There is also no place for the fleet to dock, but here it is common to see Spartans rarely patrolling. Now Spartans The main force has been transferred to Tegea, and they do not have enough manpower to defend the east...

I have chosen several places where we can pick soldiers who are good at climbing through the boat, over the reef, climb the cliff, and then put down the ropes, for the subsequent soldiers to climb the Shanghai corner... I think there are high mountains and dense forests, Enough to hide two or three hundred soldiers in a short period of time without being discovered. When our main force launches the attack from the front on the second day, they will attack from the side and back of the Spartans, and they will definitely defeat the Spartans! ..."

"I think this method is very good and can be implemented!" Secrean immediately expressed his support with excitement: "Just follow Sefidorus's proposal to formulate a new landing plan, everyone said Give suggestions, improve it, and we must succeed in the next landing operation!"

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

Xenophon was old and he didn't sleep so much, he woke up early.

After washing, after eating the specially prepared breakfast by the slave, he went out of Agassius' mansion.

It was just dawning, and there were already sporadic candlelights in the city of Sparta. If at this time in the past, there would be a lot of black laborers on the streets carrying agricultural tools and rushing to the fields to work, but this time during this time was pedestrians The scarce, occasional barking of dogs is particularly clear in this quiet town.

Xenophon walked in this quiet street, but encountered three cross-examinations of heavily armed Spartan soldiers who sprang from nowhere. Xenophon responded by going out for morning exercises.

The Spartans take martial arts, take pride in being healthy, and ashamed of being bloated and obese, so it is almost a tradition for Spartan citizens to continue training according to their own habits after they have been trained since they were young. Although Xenophon is not a Spartan citizen, he has lived in Spartan territory for decades, and his living habits are the same as those of the Spartans.

In addition, he was not only the hero of the Persian expedition twice, but also participated in many wars between Sparta and other Greek city-states, and made countless achievements. He also wrote a book and said that between the lines are filled with praises for the Spartan regime and tradition, so he is a distinguished guest of Sparta and enjoys a great reputation among Spartan citizens. And this time Sparta faced a crisis, he took the initiative to stay in Sparta, willing to fight with the Spartans, but also to the people's gratitude, so not only did the Spartan soldiers on duty not embarrass him, but all of them Kindly remind him to pay attention to safety during morning exercises, not too far from the city, to avoid accidents.

Strictly speaking, Spartan City is not a city. Although there are many temples and houses and a large population, it has no city walls. The closer to the center, the denser the houses, the more peripheral, the more sparse the houses, etc. One piece of farmland and one piece of farmland in the west mean that Xenophon has left the city.

Xenophon walked south along the road on the east bank of the Urotas River. After more than three hours, the sky was already bright. His legs were sore. He saw countless tents in front of him, and he knew that the destination had arrived.

When the Spartans learned that the "Dionyan army invaded Mesenia by sea", at the suggestion of Agsilaus, they put the focus of defense on the coast and established it on the coast. A camp was set up, and the main force of the mobilized army was placed here. UU Reading www. uukanshu.com also organized a large number of Piriasis and black robbers, nailing wooden stakes and building outposts with the soldiers... It was precisely because of this series of decisive measures that the Spartan army succeeded 'S thwarted a landing by the Dionysians.

This seaside camp has no walls and no trenches, because it only serves as a purpose for the soldiers to rest and be ready to fight at any time, and it is not intended to be used as a solid fortress. Once the Dionysians landed Success, the Spartan warriors have no meaning in the camp, because everyone knows that the Spartan city has no walls, and the Dionysian army can bypass the camp and go straight to the Spartan city, which will be a disaster for Spartan. . Therefore, rather than strengthening the camp, it is better to spend time on facilities that prevent the landing of the Dionysian fleet.

Xenophon saw three or two Spartan soldiers lying in the sun outside the tent, and some people gathered together, happily playing a unique Spartan ball game...

Seeing this situation, Xenophon temporarily relieved: The reason why the Spartan warriors dared to relax like this, it seems that there has not been any hostilities so far today. You have to know that the Dionysian warship had a large scale yesterday. Approaching the sea, the camp's army was preparing for an emergency. It may be that the Spartans were guarded. The Dionysian warships held the sea for a long time before finally leaving.
