Chapter 108: Here They Come
"Your Majesty, all the defenses of Hot Spring Pass have been completed, and now there is only one thing left to arrange the troops, does Your Majesty want to go into battle in person?"
The dark clouds in the sky obscured the sun's falling line, the ground was dark and dark giving people a feeling of oppression, the torrential rain fell for three days in a row, this day the rain stopped but the dark clouds still did not disperse, it seems likely that there will be a heavy rain.
Malfuriel came to Guo Jia's fortress to report on the day's situation, and it seemed that he had not become negative because of the rain in the past few days.
Guo Jia, who heard the call, opened his eyes, this is the twelfth victory in the simulation battle in his brain that he saw today, the weather did not stop the defense of the hot spring pass, and today is also the deadline that Guo Jia gave them, and lived up to expectations, the soldiers finally transformed the entire hot spring pass into an impregnable barrier.
"Let's go. Let's go together! Guo Jia got up from the simple chair, he held the helmet in his hand, and came to the front of the hot spring pass with joy.
"Now let's divide the defensive teams. The rain of the past few days may have caused a lot of trouble for the Persian Empire, but we still have to be well prepared! Guo Jia spoke to Malfuriel along the way, and he had already chosen in his mind a way that was most likely to stop the Persian Empire's aggression.
The two came to the front of the pass and looked at the 10,000-strong army in front of them, and they were a lot more relieved.
"The warriors of Sparta are out!" Guo Jia spoke directly, he wanted to give the Spartans the most difficult task to operate, because this army was their own, they would follow orders, and they were not afraid of life and death.
"The Guards, the Immortal Order. You are the first line of defense. Take the front of the labyrinth as the first position to contact the enemy, and once you meet the Persian Empire and there is a white-knuckle battle, you will immediately retreat to the labyrinth, all the way to the first line of defense. That is, the exit of the labyrinth, which took the life of every Persian who broke through to me. ”
"After that, follow my orders, the Persians are numerous, and they will definitely launch a more fierce attack once they are deflated here, and it may be difficult for the labyrinth to stop them at this time, and you must retreat to the second line of defense. This labyrinth will not be able to defend for more than half a day in my plan. Remember not to hit the stone with an egg. After Guo Jia finished speaking, the two Spartan legions roared in response.
"Then there was the Second Defensive Front. The Black Soul Legion, you must go out to meet the retreat of the first defense force, and give them a broken back, and you don't need to retreat directly to the fortress position without a fight. The first defense force cooperates with the black soul to hunt and kill the fish that slip through the net. ”
"Two thousand soldiers have been chosen, and you stand at the firing port of the fort, and if the Persians break through the first defensive line and attack in a big way, let your bows and arrows give them a ticket to cross the River Styx. The rest of you go directly to the top of the Hot Springs Pass to ambush, and if you see Xerxes's rear soldiers, once they are within your range, kill them all along the way! Similarly, after the dark clouds and black souls responded, Guo Jia turned his gaze to the remaining reinforcements.
"Soldiers, thank you for staying at Thermopylae to help us garrison Sparta, some of you are Sparta's subordinate city-states, some are elites sent by the Greek Empire, and some are for the good of the world. Here, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all of you. May the gods guide you. ”
"But there's one thing you won't like when I'm done. You know, we have the confidence to resist the attack of the Persian Empire, but it is still very difficult. Now that the Olympic Games are underway, the Greek Empire has no time to take care of us, so the defensive front still needs your help. ”
"There is a small road that can go directly to the hot spring pass, you know!" Guo Jia sighed, and it was this sentence that made the reinforcements directly come to a noisy voice, they had never heard of this kind of thing.
"Soldiers, don't panic, the mission I'm going to give you is actually related to this path." Guo Jia smiled, he wanted to block this road a few months ago, but after thinking about it, it shouldn't be like this, it might be useful to keep it. With such an idea, Guo Jia thought of the usefulness of this path.
"Soldiers, your mission is to garrison this road, and the hot spring pass is almost completely ready now, and the only people who know this path are us soldiers and the locals of the hot spring pass. And the day before yesterday I found a particularly brave person who would like to introduce you to you. Guo Jia smiled and beckoned Malfuriel to bring this man.
When the group of reinforcements saw this person, the voices of doubt came out again along with the exchange of ears.
"You know, this is called Dilios, and he is a warrior of my Sparta. But he was too timid to run away and not want to be laughed at by our Spartans, so he was ready to lead the Persians down that path around our defenses. Guo Jia smiled and looked at Dilios next to him, and he would reluctantly respond to Guo Jia's smile. Dilios, tell me more about it. ”
"The reinforcements, my name is Dilios, and I am a warrior of Sparta, who was, is, and will be! I will lead you to that path, and soldiers, you need to follow His Majesty Guo Jia's words and directly garrison the ambush location. Soon after the war began, I would have rebelled and led the Persians down this path, and you would have rushed out from here to wipe them out. Dilios' words were clear: his so-called rebellion was a trap for the Persians.
"Warriors, from that time on, you will face constant harassment from the Persians, among which our Spartan army will come to your aid, the mountain roads are not easy to walk, and attacking the Persians from a high altitude will greatly weaken their power. And I probably was killed by the Persians for the first time I led the way. But I won't regret it, because I'm a Spartan! Proud Spartans! After speaking, Dilios turned his gaze to Guo Jia.
"Don't worry, Dilios, you won't be sacrificed!" Guo Jia patted him on the shoulder and wrote a big thumbs up for this man in his heart.
"Come on, soldiers, you all know what you have to do. The next step is to fight against Persia, and I will tell you that once the war has started you cannot retreat, and once you retreat, it is not only the Persians' blade. You'll also have the spears of your allies! ”
"I'm sure you've made up your mind! Come, soldiers, let's trap the Persians in front of this pass with all our blood! Kill! ”
"Kill!" The clouds in the sky seemed to hear the voices of the soldiers of the hot springs, and it was frightened, revealing a hole. The sun broke through the clouds and shone on the faces of the soldiers, and the resolute faces were warmed by the sun, and they enjoyed the time.
"Now, soldiers, remember that behind you is your family! Escapees, kill! Hold back and kill! Demagogues, kill! Those who disturb the morale of the army, kill! ......" Guo Jia's mouth once again said this strict and bloody ten killing order. And his words did not make the soldiers flinch, but they were shocked and braver!
"Go, soldiers, and stand where you are to stand! Let's be right here and wait for the arrival of the Persians! After Guo Jia finished speaking, he looked at the soldiers who had already divided the team and walked to different places with their partners.
"Your Majesty, I'm going!" Dilios stretched out his arms and hugged Guo Jia tightly.
"Dilios! Survive! Guo Jia nodded at him. His arms pushed him away and grabbed his hand and shook him violently, "You must survive!" ”
"I will, for the glory of Sparta!" Dilios knew that there was a good chance that he would die on the battlefield this time, but he didn't complain.
It took three full days for the soldiers to reach their respective positions, during which the Greek gods gave them great favors, and the weather was always clear and cloudless.
"Malfuriel, come with me to the beach!" Guo Jia knew that war was imminent, and now no matter how he thought about it, he could only do it in the way that had been arranged.
"Your Majesty!" Malfuriel immediately got up and walked to the front of the pass with Guo Jia, and the two of them got on their horses to check the defense of the entire hot spring pass, as well as the operation of the labyrinth, and comforted all the Spartan soldiers in front of them, and then the two went to the beach together.
It was also night, the sky was dark, and the sea breeze was rhythmically lapping against the shore with the sound of the tides.
"Malfuriel, it's been almost a week. The Persians should have arrived! Guo Jia looked at the coastline in the distance.
"It's been a week, and it's raining for the first three days, so their speed shouldn't be that fast, but it's time to calculate it." There was some nervousness and anticipation in Malfuriel's tone, a paradoxical feeling that he felt for the first time in his life, that he did not want to see the Persians, because there were his relatives and brothers among the Spartan soldiers, but he still had some expectations. Because he hadn't fought a hearty war in a long time.
The two chatted without saying a word, and suddenly, the atmosphere between them became a little solemn. The two of them looked at the sea level in the distance, and some dense spots appeared in the place that connected to the sky. It's like a riot of fish in the sea, breaking through the sea.
"It's a boat!" Guo Jia sighed, those dense dots had appeared, and Guo Jia saw the situation clearly as he kept approaching. Ship after ship kept coming closer to them on the surface of the sea, and those ships covered almost the entire surface of the sea.
"The Persians are coming!" Malfuriel's tone changed to anticipation, and his eyes were filled with excitement. These were completely seen by Guo Jia.
"Let's go, go back and inform the soldiers that they are ready for battle." Guo Jia smiled, what should come will always come, the army of the Persians has crossed the ocean to the hot spring pass.
"Prepare for war!" The two of them immediately turned their horses' heads and galloped towards the hot springs. , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
