The Greeks also stopped their pursuit, began to gather their ranks, and slowly moved forward. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In addition to the Pikosis and Vig warriors, there were also other wounded warriors from the three cities, and the strength of the camp was more than 9,000 people, from south to north, the length of the array was about several miles, and it belonged to the tribes of Grummentum, Niutum, and Laos, so the formation was slow.

The Greek mercenaries of only 2,000 men were too weak in front of the behemoth of the Lucarian tribal alliance, but they suddenly accelerated to the left as they slowly approached a hundred meters away from the enemy formation.

Before the Lucanian leaders could react, the Greek army had quickly approached the right flank of the coalition army, and the Lucanian warriors, who were still in disarray, watched in horror as the Greek army threw javelins at them, and then launched a ferocious charge at them......

In the blink of an eye, the right end of the right flank of the Lucanian coalition led to the collapse......

"The despicable Greeks, contrary to their faith, attacked before we were finished! ......" Severa yelled angrily.

Akpiru realized that he had made a mistake and sent a large army to face the short, lean Greek army, like a prey bull facing a nimble rat, bloated and ineffective.

"Blow the trumpet and let the warriors attack immediately!" While the Greek army continued to attack to the left along the right end of the right flank, Akpiru quickly gave the order: "Surround them!" Don't let them run! ”

At the same time, similar orders were given by other chiefs.

The freed Lucalya warriors were like hounds in love with the Greeks, who wanted to break the bodies of the Greeks who had repeatedly played tricks on them, humiliated them, and hated them.

The Greek army immediately turned and ran eastward, throwing away their shields, their bayonets, and their swords as they ran, in order to ensure that they were not overtaken by the Lucalians, who were running like mad.

The Greeks ran desperately ahead, and the Lucanian coalition pursued closely, gradually forming a long, dense queue that lasted for several miles......

The Greeks turned over the ridge of the hill and followed the descending mountain road until it went east, for about ten miles, and the soldiers were a little out of breath, and when they looked back, they saw that the Lucalians were still following closely behind.

At this time, the Greeks left the mountain road and approached the banks of the Tino River...... Then, we ran down a gentle slope to the large river beach on the other side of the famous hot spring swamp: although the soil is moist and soft, and you can pick up a piece of soil with you as soon as you step down, the terrain is flat, and it is easier and faster to run than the uneven, rocky mountain path. The Lucalians, of course, followed closely down the river beach, otherwise they would not have been able to catch up with the Greeks......

"Brothers, hold on a little longer, and ...... right away It's coming soon! Phellisius, who was running in front, panting and cheering up the soldiers around him in a hoarse voice, was actually cheering himself up, as a veteran over forty years old, this long-distance run simply exhausted all his strength.

The Greeks had run over the gentle slopes of the river, and the Lucanians followed, but when they were about to reach the top of the slope, they were surprised to find rows of heavily armed Greek heavy infantry on top of them.

"There is an ambush-" Before the soldier at the front could shout, the Greek spears pierced his chest.

The exhausted Lucanian warriors who had already run completely lost their ability to dodge, and under the incessant stabbing of countless bayonets of the Greek heavy infantry, they rolled down one by one like dumplings, while the soldiers further behind did not know the situation in front of them, and were still running forward......

At this time, behind the Tarantum reinforcements who were responsible for frontal interception, the soldiers of the Davers mercenary army, who had been in charge of luring the enemy just now, were gulping down still hot bread and drinking hot water, while the women and slaves of the baggage camp brought new round shields, bayonet guns and matching swords, and quickly equipped each soldier. The mercenaries knew that they were short on time, and they had to replenish the water as quickly as possible, and then rush to the front as fast as possible to complete the finishing work of the encirclement.

Mersis also knew that his time was tight, and after completing the replenishment of the mercenaries, he had to take the heavily armed guards of the baggage battalion, the slaves, the slaves of the city of Turiyi, and dozens of mercenary soldiers who served as the leaders of the slave soldiers and were responsible for commanding them, a total of about a thousand people, including a dozen pack carts, to rush to the narrow place in front of the mountain road, establish a defensive line, and block the reinforcements of the Lucanian coalition army.

Drax, Adrianx, and Sesta, with about 1,500 mercenaries, were lying in ambush on the flanks of the large river beach more than two miles long, and the front was relatively weak. Fortunately, they were still behind them an offensive line of about 700 light shield men and light infantry, as well as 700 armed mine slaves. And in between the two teams was Davers and his escort.

"Chief!" Assistes rode up and said excitedly, "Our team has already begun to march quickly to the west mountain road!" ”

Davos nodded, trying his best to suppress the excitement and nervousness in his heart: the initial operation to lure the enemy can be said to be fruitful, look at the dense enemy below, the minimum estimate is eight or nine thousand people, more than half of the forces of the Lucanian tribal coalition are concentrated here, excluding the soldiers who were killed and wounded yesterday, the enemy's camp is estimated to be no more than five thousand people, annihilate the enemy in front of them, the Lucarians are no longer able to go to the Xubari Plain to make waves, they should take advantage of the chaotic enemy organization on the river beach, launch an attack, and take it as soon as possible.

"Light infantry attack!" Davers gave the order decisively.

Epitenis and Zpitt received the order and led the light shieldmen through the mercenaries in front, while Alpunse ordered the slingers and archers to start reloading their ammunition......

The front was blocked, and the Lucanian warriors behind were still rushing because of inertia. Soon, countless Lucalian warriors were crowded together, and the hedgehogs gathered under this large river beach about half a mile wide and more than two miles long, and many people already sensed that the situation was wrong, and were shouting at each other restlessly......

At this time, numerous Greek soldiers appeared on the side slopes.

"There are enemies!"

"We've been ambushed!"

……

With the panicked shouts of the soldiers, javelins, arrows, and flying stones poured down......

The warriors were so crowded, and most of them had thrown away their shields, helmets, and some even pulled out their cuirasses in order to facilitate the pursuit, so that the mercenary light infantry did not need to aim, and every javelin, every stone, and every arrow could easily hit the target.

"Retreat!!" The companions beside him fell down one by one, and the terrified warriors tried to escape, but the more than 9,000 people in the crowded and narrow space, some were dodging arrows and flying stones, some wanted to retreat, and some wanted to kill the Greeks in front of them in anger...... Everyone has his own ideas, and it is quite difficult to complete a smooth retreat, on the contrary, it is more likely to cause trampling disasters by stumbling around like headless flies, but disrupting the whole team into disorganization and disorganization. In the face of death, the frightened warriors unconsciously pushed down the clansmen who were in front of them, and died silently at the feet of countless people in an instant......

The chiefs of the tribes and the warriors were anxious when they saw this. However, in the midst of the surging and noisy crowds, any shouting and blocking was futile, and the trumpeters of the coalition army were far behind the line, and their fingers could not be relied on.

"Kill it! Follow me out! ......" Severa squeezed away the panicked people with her strong body, spear in hand, roaring incessantly, eyes wide open, and rushed towards the gentle slope on the side of the river......

His adventurous actions attracted the attention of both sides, alerting the panicked warriors who were dodging the rain of arrows, and some of them began to follow him, braving the enemy's long-range strikes and running up the gentle slope.

Zpiete drew a javelin, wrapped a narrow strip of cloth around the middle of the barrel, and put the leather band at the other end on his finger, spreading his body like a bow full of strings, staring at Severa who was getting closer and closer to him, but still still. When he saw Severa use his round shield to block a javelin thrown by the light shield soldiers, and his feet slipped because of the excessive force, he suddenly threw the javelin at Severa, and the leather ring in his hand was with a strip of cloth, and he pulled the javelin with the momentum, so that the javelin was carrying strong kinetic energy at the same time, but also spinning, and in the blink of an eye, it accurately pierced the linen cuirass that Severa was wearing.
