For a moment, the camp was in chaos, and the Gnenat were unable to gather enough warriors to repel the riot of revenge from the Vigs......

"Captain, look!" Outside Lucania's camp, the mercenary cavalry, who was observing the movement, shouted excitedly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Rydes, who had been annoyed that he hadn't stopped all the soldiers who had reported Lucania, had caught fire in the enemy's camp, and then he couldn't believe his eyes when he saw the people inside start fighting each other.

"Captain, it's infighting! The enemy is infighting!! The cavalryman next to him continued to shout excitedly.

Ryders suppressed the excitement in his heart, observed for a while, and after confirming the doubt, he said, "Quick! Go back and tell the Davos leader that the enemy camp is in serious infighting and has no ability to send reinforcements for the time being! ”

…………………………

Davers was unaware of the infighting at Lucania's camp, and he was now worried about the stalemate in front of him.

Despite the ill-equipped and inert strength of the Lucanian warriors, coupled with the slippery feet (the river beach was muddy due to frequent trampling), they were like the tide in the sea, wave after wave of the Greek army's defenses, and their blood was also aroused by the screams of their compatriots: even if they were stabbed by a bayonet, they would hold on to their guns; Knocked down by the round shield, they will desperately hook the feet of the Greek soldiers before sliding down the slope......

The Greek defensive line to the north was crumbling.

"Report, the leader of Dracos has fallen!"

"What?!" Davers was taken aback, in the rear of the heavy infantry line he was already feeling the commotion of the mercenaries in front, and this commotion was spreading.

"Let Acheta draw three hundred men to support the north!" Davers said anxiously.

"Chief, you have given this order before, Tarantum has no troops to send at all, and they are also very difficult!" Assistes reminded.

"Yes." Davers rubbed his face with his hands, he was a little nervous when it was the first time he had commanded such a big battle independently, and the fate of him and the future of the soldiers was at stake. He took a deep breath, tried his best to calm himself, and then decisively ordered: "Order the slave team and the light shield soldiers to fight!" ”

Then, he looked back at Maltius: "It's our turn!" ”

"Ho!" Marttius excitedly slapped his saber against the shield, and the guards lowered their bayonet guns, drew their sabers, and roared loudly. Experienced they knew that in such an extremely crowded battlefield, long weapons were no longer effective.

Davers rushed ahead first, and Martius's escort followed closely behind, quickly protecting him to his left and right, and Arcisstes held his military flag aloft behind Davers.

The flying flags made the mercenaries who began to break down hesitate, and also allowed the Lucanians who were rushing indiscriminately to find their target, and gradually poured towards Davers and them, easing the pressure on the other defensive lines slightly, but causing the impact on Davers to increase sharply......

At this time, the sound of the brass horn continued to sound.

Although the light shield soldiers were already numb from the frequent throwing of javelins, they did not hesitate to raise their leather shields and long-handled counterblades under the leadership of Epitenis and Zpit, and rushed forward to plug the gap in the mercenary line.

And the slave soldiers couldn't wait, because Davers had promised them that if the battle was won, they would be free. So as soon as the order came, they shouted, "For freedom!! ”

With abundant physical strength and high fighting spirit, they had no combat skills and drove some of the enemies who broke through the defense line to the bottom of the slope, and at the same time, there were some mercenaries who were squeezed down by them......

………………………

Also chanting "For freedom" was the team led by Mercis, led by the mercenary veterans, the thousand slaves not only quickly arrived at Pherisius's place, but also bypassed the front of the dog-toothed and scuffled teams, and struck the enemy's flank and rear like a hammer.

Akpiru, who was worried about the battle situation in the rear, and the other two great chiefs bore the brunt, and the few guards around them could not stop the onslaught of the excited slaves.

"Why?! Why hasn't Sincinag arrived yet?! Akpiru shouted angrily.

"Big leader, retreat quickly, you won't be able to leave if it's too late!" The subordinates anxiously persuaded.

Remove? Throw almost 10,000 fighters here ?! How could Akpiru be reluctant, he still wanted to insist, but he heard a mournful cry not far away: "Great chief! Big Boss! ……”

It turned out that Utl, the great leader of Niutum, was wounded several spears and fell to the ground.

Akpiru finally no longer hesitated, and under the desperate protection of his subordinates, Akpiru and Tula, the great leader of Laos, fled westward with dozens of people in panic, and the remaining more than 500 Lucanian warriors were all dumplings.

At this time, Ryders's cavalry happened to rush back to the place of battle and shouted: "There is infighting in the enemy camp, reinforcements will not arrive for the time being!" ”

This good news boosted the morale of the mercenaries, and the morale of the Lucanians who could understand Greek was shocked (the Lucanians, as neighbors of the Greek city-states, were hostile but also traded, and there were many people who could speak Greek), and the leaders fled from the battle, and the morale plummeted......

Mercenary soldiers and slave soldiers flanked back and forth, and the five hundred Lucanian warriors were either killed or fled. Then the combined army did not rest, and Pherisius ordered Mercish's slave soldiers and mercenaries to quickly reinforce the western line.

At this time, the western line of defense was even worse than the northern line, and the limited force led by Cappus was overstretched, and the thin line was broken through by the surging flow of people in many places.

Cappus, Antonios, and Alexis fought with the soldiers armed with shield guns (according to the military law formulated by Davers: the company commander is not allowed to personally fight the enemy unless there are special circumstances, so as to prevent the command from getting out of control).

At this moment of crisis, Felicius led his team to arrive, and the addition of nearly 2,000 men finally stabilized the defensive line......

………………………

The battle lasted more than an hour, and the onslaught of the Lucanian tribal coalition on the defensive line began to weaken......

The entire river beach area was full of warriors who had been trampled by stabs, robbers, arrows, flying stones, and even trampling by their own people, and the groans, wails, and cries were endless, and the sound was getting louder and louder, but the tribal warriors who were still fighting became fewer and fewer......

Seeing that there was no hope of breaking through, more and more warriors turned to the Tino River and fled to the thermal swamps, only to be swept away by the river or their feet stuck in the swamp mud......

At this time, Davers was ripe and resolutely gave the order to attack.

The brass horn sounded loudly and rapidly, and the Greek soldiers, who were already extremely tired, under the stimulus of the imminent victory, under the leadership of generals such as Davers, Acheta, and Pherisius, launched a final attack from the east, west, and north like a tiger pounced on the enemy who was almost unable to resist the slope...... In the end, except for a few warriors who surrendered, the rest were not killed, even if they were forced into the Tino River and the Thermothermal Marsh, and were killed by long-range attacks from bows and arrows and javelins......

The first major battle independently commanded by Davers in his long military career: the Battle of the Great River Beach (later known as the Battle of the Siege of Hot Springs Swamp), with about 7,500 mixed forces (including slaves) against more than 9,000 people of the Lucanian tribal alliance, the final result was more than 1,000 Greek casualties (half of them slaves), and the 9,000 people of the Lucarian tribal alliance were annihilated except for more than 400 people, and Davers won a complete victory.

The whole river beach is like a mountain of corpses, and the blood is flowing like a river......

…………………………

The efforts of Sincinag, Gneinert and others were in vain, and Picosis was irretrievably defeated, and they finally fled the camp with more than 200 men, watching as the fire burned the camp that stretched for miles to ashes......

The Vigs, the enemies of life and death, entered the westward mountain road under the leadership of Sedorum intact and embarked on the way home.
