Chapter 127 The Battle of Tigerya (3)

With the roar of the Dionian Legionnaires, nearly 20,000 javelins flew out, covering the sky. The charge of the Spartan coalition soldiers stopped instantly, followed by continuous screams.

The frightened Spartan coalition soldiers had just removed their round shields when they were shocked to find that countless javelins were attacking.

Although before the battle, Agsilaustly reminded the mercenary generals to be careful that the heavy infantry of the Dionian Legion would throw javelins when approaching, but the mercenaries who had never dealt with the Dionians had experience. They are still ill-prepared.

When the formation in the front of the Spartan army was disrupted by the rain of javelins, the legionnaires shouted the name of Hades and launched a charge, and the four-mile-long Dionysian army slammed into it the Spartan Army.

The soldiers of the 6th Legion were suffocating because they heard from the officers that the commander had the 4th Army fight the Spartans on the right flank, the 1st Army was the focus of the attack on the left flank, and their 6th Army was on the right flank. The mid lane is just a hold.

Why can our Sixth Corps only do diversion? ! ...The soldiers vowed to let the young prince see the power of the Sixth Legion, so they roared, focused their whole body on the long shield in their left hand, and slammed into the enemy who was trying to restore the formation, the thorn in the right hand. The gun lightning generally passes through the cracked gap, and accurately pierces the enemy hiding behind the round shield...

The unreserved full-strength attack by the soldiers of the Sixth Legion from the beginning made the Spartan army, which was unevenly formed due to the javelin attack, even more chaotic at the front of the center.

The fourth legionnaire's charge was reserved, because their opponents were the famous Spartans and had to be on guard. But when they rushed to the front and started fighting, the Spartans' counterattack was not sharp, and they were also passive under the rapid attack of the soldiers. Although the soldiers were relieved, they were a little disappointed in their hearts.

On the left flank, the soldiers of the First Corps shouldered the heavy responsibility of winning the battle, and they also attacked with all their strength. However, the mercenaries who had just been attacked by the rain of javelins were relatively tacit and slow to the rear, which greatly eased the First Corps. The soldiers' charge, and their ruthless counterattacks from time to time in the solid defense, caused some casualties among the first soldiers of the First Corps, forcing the soldiers to stop their aggressive advance and begin to fight the enemy patiently.

In general, the Dionian army relied on the long-range attack of the light infantry and the javelin strike of the heavy infantry, and took the lead from the beginning, making the Spartan army somewhat passive in the frontal confrontation.

However, Agesilaos had expected to thicken the columns of the left wing and the center line before the war, and relied on a stronger pushing force to withstand the impact of the legionnaires, and gradually stabilized the battle situation.

When the fighting between the two sides returned to balance, the scout cavalry rushed back to the command center and reported to Clotokatax that the cavalry on both sides had defeated the Spartan cavalry,

A pursuit is underway.

A smile finally appeared on Clotokatax's nervous face. Although he knew that even if the cavalry won, the number of cavalry would not play a big role in a battle of tens of thousands of people, but it was a great battle after all. good sign.

He was about to say something to Printols to ease the tension in his heart, when suddenly he heard the faint sound of bugles, and he was stunned for a moment, thinking that he had heard it wrong.

But the trumpet continued and became clearer.

He subconsciously looked around the battlefield filled with morning fog and clamoring to the sky, unable to discern the source of the trumpet sound for a while.

At this time, Printols has given an order to Muklu with a serious expression: "This is not our bugle! You immediately send out a few staff officers, scattered around to investigate, and find out the source of the bugle as soon as possible!"

"Yes!" Muklu also realized the seriousness of the problem and rushed to perform the task immediately.

"Lord Printols, could it be reinforcements from the Spartans coming?!" Klotokatax asked worriedly.

Plintos turned around, pointed to the rear, and calmly said: "Don't worry, Your Highness, even if the reinforcements from Sparta come, we can defeat him!"

There is also a large phalanx behind and on both sides of the command center, which not only has 3,000 heavy infantry from the 7th Corps, but also three light-armor battalions and mountain reconnaissance battalions from other corps, with a total of 7,000 people. Thors used a quarter of the entire army as a reserve. This decision was indeed too bold, but now it gave Clotokatax confidence.

Not long after the several staff officers set off, a scout cavalry returned: "Lord Commander, about four or five thousand soldiers rushed out of the city of Taigea, and they kept blowing bugles and advancing towards the battlefield!"

"It's the bugle trumpeted by the Tigeras!" Klotokatax suddenly realized.

"We saved Taigea, but the Taigea didn't send anyone out to contact us to express their gratitude to us. The battle started for a while before sending troops out..." Muklu complained softly.

"The Tigeras were attacked by the Spartan army before, and they should have suffered a lot. Moreover, such a large-scale battle took place at their doorstep. It is understandable to be vigilant..." Clotokatax added. For the sake of the Tigeras, he explained a few words, and then said excitedly: "Now they are not only participating in the battle, but also sending so many soldiers, which will definitely help us win as soon as possible!"

"Bring the battle map at this moment!" said Printols.

A staff officer immediately handed over a wooden board, which was a brief battlefield situation map drawn based on various battlefield information detected by the charioteer before.

Plintos took a look and immediately his face sank: "Our cavalry has defeated the Spartan cavalry, you did not correct it in time!"

"It's...not yet."

"The information on the battlefield changes rapidly, and once it is slow, it will be slow again and again. How can you give the commander a good support!" Printols severely criticized.

"My lord, I was wrong, I'll change it right away!"

Plintos didn't give it to him immediately, but held the wooden board and asked the scout in a deep voice, "Where is Tigera's army?"

Today's Dionysian scouts are specially trained. They not only have good riding skills, have a strong sense of direction, have sharp eyes, and are good at observing and estimating the number of troops, but also good at reading and drawing... So he just glanced at them. The wooden board, he pressed his finger on it without hesitation: "They are here!"

Plintors took a closer look: the Taigean army was behind the left flank of the Dionysian formation, not far to the south of the city of Taigea.

"His Royal Highness, we should immediately send someone to inform the Tygeans, let them go around the rear of the Spartan army and attack the right flank of Sparta." Plintols suggested to Clotokatax , while gesturing on the board.

Clotokatax understood immediately. He looked around and said, "In order to show respect for the Tygeans, Mukru, please make a trip."

"As ordered."

"Wait! Let the guide from Mandinia called Calisenos come with you, so it's easier to communicate with the Tigeans."

It should be said that Klotokatax was very thoughtful, and Muklu happily led the way.

Plintos looked north thoughtfully, and because the dust mist blocked his vision, he couldn't see the Taiga army two miles away at all.

He felt a little uneasy in his heart, but he couldn't remember where the uneasy came from.

Agsilaus also heard the bugle that kept ringing, he stood up again and looked north, the ancient well's unwavering face finally waved: "The Taiga finally came out, It's time for our soldiers to act too."

Up to now, Max, who was in the front line of the army, was more and more surprised. The soldiers under him had done their best, but not only did the enemy on the opposite side not fall behind, but through the narrow eyes of the Corinthian helmet, he could feel it. The indifference and bloodthirsty revealed in those pair of sharp eyes, it seems that they still have spare power.

Where did the Spartans recruit these soldiers? so smart! ...Max realized that the First Army was going to have a tough fight.

At this moment, he heard a roar from the opposite side, and the roar was getting louder and louder. He subconsciously tightened the long shield and shouted to the soldiers below: "Pay attention to defense! Pay attention to defense! ..."

But what happened next was completely beyond his expectations. The enemy on the opposite side turned and fled in unison amid the roar.

Although the soldiers in the front line of the First Corps were a little dazed, they immediately cheered and pursued.

………………………………………………

As soon as Mukru left on horseback, the command center in the rear of the Dionian army received good news: the right flank of the Spartan army was defeated, and the First Army was in pursuit.

"That's great! The First Legion is worthy of being the strongest legion in the kingdom. It looks like we have won this battle!" Clotoka Tuxton danced with excitement, and the previous nervousness and anxiety had long since disappeared. Without a trace, he even suggested: "Lord Printols, do you want to send the reserve team out? Otherwise, they won't gain any military exploits, and the battle will be over."

But instead of rejoicing, Printols was a little confused: "Strange! According to the information reported by the reconnaissance cavalry before, Sparta's right flank defense is tenacious, and the First Army did not take advantage of it, and when there was no sign, how could it be? Suddenly they were rout?"

"You suspect that they are cheating?!" Klotokatax was shocked, and then shook his head: "This is impossible! In such a big battle, thousands of people cheated at the same time, even our legionnaires. It is also difficult to control well, and it is easy to cause the collapse of the entire formation if you are not careful, not to mention the mercenaries who make up for it.”
