Chapter 106: This is Sparta

"It's a well-weathered day."

"It's cool and breezy today, and it's a good weather for the soldiers!"

"Spend the full moon today, if we can deploy overnight, we will get twice the result with half the effort!"

All in all, Guo Jia now has his soldiers out of the air no matter what weather and time it is, and he is always ready to fight the invaders of the Persian Empire.

The Persian army was worthy of such a large number of people, and of course they relied on the advantage of numbers to force their way to the coast of Demobili, and soon they would cross the sea by boat to the Spartan soldiers to the hot springs.

"The Persian army is coming!" Guo Jia stood on the shoreline and felt a hint of coolness brought to him by the sea breeze. He was a little melancholy, you must know that he has been reading the battle report in front of him, the group of Persians who are thirsty for blood, their number cannot be ignored by Guo Jia, and he has been sending letters to ask for Greek assistance in the past few days, but this group of Greeks actually told him "For the sake of the gods, for the development of the Olympic Games, the advance of the defense of the Persian Empire depends on you!" ”

The ignorant Greeks gave Guo Jia all kinds of benefits, but the only thing was the lack of soldiers who guarded the pass with them, Guo Jia stood for a long time, and the armor on his body was never removed by him except when he was sleeping, and his legs were a little painful.

"Well, that's a problem for me." Guo Jia said to himself, you must know that once the defensive battle of Hot Spring Pass goes wrong, it will bring him endless losses. The Black Watch system is a pitfall, it has never told Guo Jia the purpose of this crossing, nor has it told him the content of the achievement of this crossing.

"Forget it, let's see how this group is doing. After so many days, all the defense work should have been completed! Guo Jia sighed, turned his head and walked towards the hot spring pass. Guo Jia, who personally inspects this place every day, has already memorized the terrain of the entire hot spring pass.

Along the way, it was a leisurely walk, simulating the scene of the battle between the two sides in his mind while moving towards various tactics, but after Guo Jia noticed more and more details, he was now more and more uncertain. Every mock war was always defeated by the Persian Empire, and he didn't know what kind of person Xerxes was, nor did he know whether this person could master an army of 100,000 people, and he was always sad all day after the simulation in his mind. He has fought hundreds of battles before and after, and he has less and less confidence in himself.

"The king of Sparta? That's right, that's the king of Sparta! A voice shouted, sounding excited.

"His Majesty Guo Jia is back, and he can finally eat!" For them, meeting Guo Jia is like seeing today's dinner, so they are very happy.

In front of Guo Jia was the almost completed defense system of Hot Spring Pass, a place like a castle, almost all of which were made of stone in strict accordance with Guo Jia's instructions, and the few internal pillars and beams were also ordinary wooden, so that whether it was a fire or a strong attack, it could stand tall on the battlefield.

The castle defense is divided into four parts, the first part is the defense system, the two defenses are the wooden horse rejection 300 meters away in front of the hot spring pass and the labyrinthine passage formed by the accumulation of stones, and the passage with a height of three people is the city wall and trap. In some of these places, Guo Jia himself changed it into a spur trap, which was specially used to trap and kill Persian soldiers who took the wrong path, and then there was a labyrinth, and the two-person wide aisle could not pass too many soldiers, and the Spartan soldiers could save a lot of trouble if they waited for the Persians to pass through the turning aisle, and then besieged and killed.

And the second is this fortress that is both a castle and a fortification. Among them, the thousand-man archer defenders deployed inside are about to become a nightmare for the Persian Empire to break through the first layer of defense to reach here, and similarly, the Persians who are difficult to retreat will be trapped by the labyrinth in the rear, and the front will definitely be caught off guard because of Guo Jia's pillbox.

Immediately followed by the second trap, and this is Guo Jia's last strength, destroying the natural barrier of Hot Spring Pass, that is, the cliffs on both sides, completely blocking this shortcut road. But if they did, then the Spartan warriors must be at a great disadvantage.

"Your Majesty Guo Jia, what are you going to do next?" Carl Hughes chatted with Guo Jia for so long yesterday, and he felt that this person was definitely not the kind of person who was rigid and self-serving, and everything he did was the best plan, and this huge fortress was his handiwork.

"Carl Hughes, let people eat first, and then gather all the soldiers in the gate, and we will now prepare to face the Persian Empire." Guo Jia didn't enter the fortress, he simply sat in front of the hot spring pass and looked at the whole hot spring pass that had changed greatly.

The cool breeze at night makes people feel more comfortable. The Spartan warriors, on the other hand, were eating with their comrades over a bonfire in the cold wind. Fat legs of lamb rattled with flames, while the spirits in the cups were blown by the wind.

Guo Jia and his soldiers were well prepared for the coming war. Here every warrior could not see the sorrow on his face. After dinner, the soldiers were regrouped, they stood in front of the fortress of Thermopylae with their heads held high, the night had fallen, the number of soldiers was more than fifteen thousand, and Guo Jia held a sheepskin scroll in his hand, this was the last and latest battle report, the Persians had reached the port of Demobili, which meant that it would not be long before the Persians would come to Thermopay with their warships, and the army of 10,000 Spartans would be against them.

"Warriors, I am relieved to see that our Spartan defense mission is completed. To be honest, I am very happy to be able to build such a huge fortification in such a short time! Guo Jia looked at the warriors in front of him, the night hazy his eyes, but he could still feel the incomparable aura that the warriors brought him.

"Soldiers, tell me if you're afraid?" Guo Jia turned his gaze to Demobilly Bay, his eyes as if he saw a Persian crossing the sea by boat. "The Persian Empire has arrived at the Demobilli docks, and it won't be long before they come here."

"The Persian army is in the hundreds of thousands, are you afraid?" Guo Jia turned his head and asked again.

"Don't be afraid!" The shouts in unison made Guo Jia's heart more stable, no matter how much he had already made corresponding efforts, Persia was completely prepared for this invasion.

"You've had dinner here today, and it's possible that you'll go to the underworld guarded by the Hades to eat his pomegranate fruit tomorrow, aren't you afraid?" Guo Jia spoke again, he needed to mobilize the momentum of all the soldiers.

"We're not afraid!" Another roar in response covered the sound of the waves, and the ground trembled and the sky shook.

"Remember what you said today! Soldiers of Sparta! Reinforcements! Behind you is your own home, where you have your relatives and friends, and we are guarding this pass to protect their lives. What will happen to them if they hold back! You all know it in your hearts. I'm asking you one last time, are you afraid? ”

This time, Guo Jia's momentum actually made the waves tremble, and wave after wave urged them to answer quickly.

"We're not afraid!" Finally, Guo Jia ushered in the answer he wanted to know, and the earth-shattering roar calmed his heart. These fierce warriors are not soft eggs, they have their own beliefs.

And at this moment, Guo Jia abandoned all the defeat simulations in his mind. He saw a victory slowly emerge in his mind. Because this time he lowered his requirements, and his aim was no longer to defeat the Persians but to hold them back, and he counted the whole defense business, and he counted the morale of the soldiers.

"Your Majesty, we have found a spy on the edge of Haibo!" The Spartan soldier returning from the patrol escorted a young man with a rope, who was clearly dressed as a Persian. The man held his head high, not afraid of the Spartan garrison.

"You're a Persian?" Guo Jia looked at him suspiciously.

"Yes, I am a Persian! I am a messenger sent by the great King Xerxes. I know you, you are Leonidas! King of Sparta! I tell you, you'd better let me go, or our Persian horsemen will tread you Sparta!" The Persian messenger apparently did not recognize the situation.

"Hahahaha!" After hearing his words, the soldiers who were guarding the gate let out a mocking laugh.

"Who do you think you are, the messenger of Persia, a dog running around at will, barking in front of me? Also, you recognize the wrong person, I'm not Leonidas, my name is Guo Jia. By the way, you guessed it, I am the king of Sparta. Guo Jia smiled, he didn't expect the news from Persia to be so closed, it seems that he should be able to pit the Persians for a good time.

"I'll say it again......" The Persian messenger visibly wanted to speak, but Guo Jia stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder.

"Don't say it, sooner or later you will die, and the Persians will not come to your rescue." Guo Jia shook his head, his palm already pinching the messenger's neck.

"You! Aren't you afraid that the iron horsemen of my Persian empire will tread you to the ground? The back of the courier's spine was cold, and he was scared now.

"The Persian Empire? What a thing! The garbage is like a rat in the gutter, vulnerable! Guo Jia smiled, and his hand continued to approach the man's neck.

"You!" The courier's crotch was wet, and a foul smell wafted in the wind. "You're crazy!"

He thought that this king of Sparta would be timid when he heard the news of the Persian Empire's attack, at least he would not kill him, but he was wrong, he did not know that this king was so murderous.

"Crazy? No, no, no, it's not crazy! This is Sparta! As Guo Jia's palm was forced, the sound of broken bones sounded, and the messenger of Persia could not die anymore. And the Spartans, who saw what he had done, did not panic, but let out an earth-shattering roar again.

"It's Sparta!" , you are lonely, the young lady warms you with a movie
