Chapter 133 "The Lion"

?? Northern Front

After Garras left, Oonos immediately set about reorganizing his 100,000 elite soldiers.

Now he commands the core military forces of the Macedonian kingdom, one is the Seventh Legion, which he personally fought from the mountains, and the other is the Ghost Legion, the king's main force. They are the most traditional and honored troops in Macedonia, and their combat effectiveness is particularly ferocious.

Often the most capable people also have a bad temper and have quirky personalities. At present, the soldiers of the Seventh Legion and the Ghost Legion under the command of Oonos have often had conflicts and frictions because they are not convinced by each other, and there are even group vicious brawls.

When Oonos found out, he did not punish the troublesome soldiers, but ordered all officers and soldiers to undergo three days of high-intensity basic physical training.

At noon on the third day, the sun was blazing. The Macedonian soldiers, after a lot of training, have not yet eaten lunch. One by one, hungry and tired, they stood in line.

The supreme military commander of the Nordic region, Oonos gathered the soldiers of the three major armies to meet in the training ground outside the city. The gray-haired veteran is majestic, and his wrinkled face is imprinted with traces of vicissitudes, adding a bit of kindness. He was the most resemblance of the three brothers to the former King Antigones.

"How's it going, tired? Hot or not? You're all hungry. Like everyone else, I didn't eat lunch. Standing with you in the sun.

But I have something to say to you in person. And I have to make it clear to you.

Straight to the point.

My dear soldiers, I think it is an honor for all of us to stand here today.

Look at the people around you, don't you feel kind? They are your compatriots, comrades-in-arms. Everyone is also a Macedonian with noble blood in their veins.

For the sake of honor, for wealth, for justice, we have traveled far from our hometown and come here. Surrounded by unfamiliar surroundings, unfamiliar languages and faces. I want to remind you that the only thing you can trust right now is the people around you.

Do you think you can let your guard down after a series of victories? Loose and self-righteous. Hum! I'm telling you it's far off.

The Britons have already joined the war. They were much better than the Germanic tribesmen. The Carthaginians are also keeping an eye on the situation here, and if you don't try to crush the enemy as quickly as possible, you will encounter more enemy soldiers.

So the most important thing for you now is to adjust your mindset and tell yourself that the expedition is not over. Danger is everywhere, and you must stick together.

I know that we are all heroic troops. They come from different war zones, each with its own glorious legion number. However, today I will remember that in the future, your supreme commander will be called Oonos, and you belong to the Nordic theater of operations and accept unified command.

Do you understand? You must now obey my commands and obey my commands.

I don't want an all-round army that can fight anything, I want a group army group that cooperates tacitly and fights in concert.

From now on, you are no longer a single Invincible Legion, the Seventh Legion, or the Eleventh Germanic Legion.

It's the Nordic 'Lions' Army Group, and I ask you to have a new look. Aren't you elite? Combine into a new and powerful group, and you are the unstoppable lions!

March to victory! Long live Macedonia! ”

The Macedonians followed suit and shouted that they had a new goal. At this moment, it is as if the flame in their hearts is ignited, and the light and light are restored.

Looking at the morale of the three armies, Oonos was satisfied, and he knew that the soldiers were ready to use.

So the general ordered to take out the food and wine from the treasury and feast the officers and soldiers of the three armies. In the process of drinking, everyone quickly mingled and became familiar. The atmosphere was much more harmonious.

In the next few days, Oonos began to conduct platoon training for the whole army, including the division and coordination of troops, focusing on the use of stone crossbows, archers, supporting the attack and covering the retreat and other combat subjects. After just one week of training, the effect is very obvious. The combat effectiveness of the group army increased rapidly. He is truly a good fighter.

According to intelligence, the British First Support Army had arrived near Alesia.

In the battle room, Oonos summoned the main generals: Bollon, Sigimo, Paison, Zeuxis, Artemios, his eldest son-in-law, Alexachs Olope, and his youngest son, Anaxaxos.

It was summer, and everyone remembered that they were in a small room, and they discussed everything very seriously.

"I have decided to send 100,000 elite troops to the west, to attack together, first to destroy the main force of northern Gaul and the main force of the British continent near Alesia, and then to occupy all the northwest of Europe in three ways. What do you think? ”

"No comment, now is the time to play. At the moment the enemy is concentrating his forces on Greater Gaul and Belgium. We're going to take advantage of this to catch them all! ”

"Our troops are recuperating for a few days and have enough food. Many units are overstaffed. The physical strength and strength are at their best.

In the past few days, the soldiers were full of morale and united. This is the division of victory. ”

"Good. So decided. Gather everyone, the commander personally parades the generals, and swears to the three armies!

Let's go! ”

"Yes!"

The Macedonian Nordic Army, known as 100,000 people, set out for a formidable appearance. The marching procession passed in an orderly manner, and the front and rear teams could not find an end.

The Macedonian army pressed like a lion into the Seine, creating an unstoppable suffocating pressure on the enemy.

The defender of Alesia, Dincomius, received the tip, and when he heard that Oonos's legion had moved, his heart was terrified. At best, he said, they could hold the enemy back for a few months.

The Britons, who did not know the depths, had never encountered the Macedonian phalanx, and the British general Casdix took the initiative to ask Ying to go to the Seine to intercept the enemy. Hearing that the plague gods were leaving, Dincomius was very pleased to approve of his suggestion. They came to Alesia to make trouble in the city. After the Britons left, their generals asked if they wanted to send troops to support friendly forces.

Tincomius said lightly:

"They're just going to die, and this Casdics man has already seen him unpleasantly. Haha, now someone helps me deal with him.

The Macedonian general Oonos was resourceful, and a river could stop him? What's more, its army has advanced weapons and a wide range of soldiers.

It is enough for us to do our duty and die in Alesia. Maybe there will be allies arriving to support it for a longer time.

Let those shameless and ignorant foreigners help me set up an extra line of defense to buy time. ”

After saying that, he had a wicked smile on his face, and his subordinates also laughed.

The two armies met on the banks of the Seine, and the Britons confidently placed their chariots at the bridge, believing themselves invulnerable.
