Chapter 277: The Battle of Sparta

Chapter 277 Spartan Offensive and Defensive Battles

Although Xerxes, who considers himself the king of kings, is extremely proud, this does not mean that he is a megalomaniac who cannot distinguish the situation, whether it is the heavy damage in the battle of the Alcmene Plains, or the mountain of corpses of the Helots outside the Spartan city-state, it is enough to prove the bravery of the Spartans, although he has no doubt that the army he led will definitely destroy the Spartans completely, but the price to pay for this must be very heavy, in order to keep the army able to sweep the entire Greek Islands in one go, Therefore, not long after the mixed slave army launched the offensive, 30,000 elite hoplites were dispatched to assist in the siege.

Since ancient times, the heavy infantry has been the king of war, and even once claimed that only the heavy infantry can defeat the heavy infantry, and the burden of such power is also extraordinarily large, although both their own ability and weapons and equipment are much inferior to the Holy Guard, after almost completely sacrificing agility, speed and mobility, their extremely strong bodies and heavy armor shields, but let them not be afraid of any challenges in frontal military battles, and they are not too high-end standard equipment, It also made the number of this force far outnumber the Holy Guard.

Although these 30,000 heavy infantry cannot be compared with the Spartan warriors in terms of killing efficiency, it is not so easy for the Spartans to kill these extremely defensive heavy infantry, not to mention that at the moment, these Persian heavy infantry do not seem to care about how much damage they can inflict on the Spartans, but only block the Spartan offensive with heavy armor and huge shields.

Although the priests had applied various buffs to the warriors, the extremely strong armor and shields were simply layers of iron plates that could not be pierced with a single blow of a spear, and for the first time, the mixed slave legions were under the protection of the regular Persian army, using throwing axes, javelins, longbows, and other long-range strikes to pour fire frantically.

If it was just such an attack, then the Spartans could still resist under the leadership of the god of war sacrifice, but then a group of even more terrifying siege weapons appeared in the trembling earth - xenomorph cyclops!

Although these big guys with the blood of ancient cyclops can't be compared with their ancestors, their average height of more than three meters still gives them terrifying powers far beyond ordinary people, and the giant mace they use requires more than a dozen strong men to bear, even the heaviest armored weapons are like small stones in his hands, which allows them to become ** catapults, but although these big guys are not bloody and brutal, they are not docile, Usually a dozen soldiers were tied in chains to be sure that they would not cause much trouble.

All of a sudden, the huge rocks directly buckled from the cliff continued to cut through the air, smashing into the back of the Spartan battle array like raindrops, and the stones thrown with this terrifying and strange force were simply unbearable for normal human flesh and blood, and the huge round shield in his hand now had no effect at all, because the violent impact force that could not be isolated alone was enough to shock them and vomit blood and seriously injure them, even if they barely smashed the rock with the war spear in their hands, then the arm would fall into spasms because of this unbearable force.

Although the soldiers on the Persian side were often occasionally stoned, the 30,000 heavy infantry ignored the damage at all, and continued to force their way under the cover of the long-range fire of the slave legions. After completely defeating the rear of the Spartan army, these xeno-cyclops also put down the stones in their hands and raised their giant maces to rush forward to kill.

Although the bravery and strength of the Spartan warriors are beyond reproach, this is only in the realm of human beings, and it is still slightly insufficient in the face of monsters such as xenomorph cyclops, and the giant mace of two meters and five meters long can smash the shield into a puddle of minced flesh every time it is smashed.

With the continuous influx of Assyrians, Parthians, Flower Thorns, Caucasians and Greek rebels in the mixed slave army, the gap in the Spartan army formation torn apart by the one-eyed plot has also widened, and the casualties are still secondary, the most deadly is that the military defense line has gradually collapsed, once the military formation composed of giant shields and war spears is broken, then it will become an impossible task to block a hundred.

Originally, if you wanted to kill a Spartan soldier, you needed to fill in the lives of at least ten soldiers, but now the ratio of casualties between Persia and Sparta has reached 3:1, because almost all the soldiers were originally soldiers, these nearly 10,000 soldiers were already all the troops of the Spartan city-state, and it was impossible to find any backup in the city.

As for Ares' charismatic warrior, although he once relied on his powerful body to pit the Sun Flame, broke free from the shackles of the light energy string, ignored the clear light nether blade that slashed the lovesickness, and fought the madman in the form of a hundred-armed giant with a totem pole, but after the bloody demon blade penetrated through his body, he was still completely killed by the successive attacks of the Middle-earth team.

Even after death, the body of this divine grace warrior was divided up by the madman, Yang Zheng and Feng Haitao, and the hunting sac that burrowed into the body wantonly absorbed the genes and cells contained in the flesh and blood, and the unjust soul and dead soul also infiltrated into the body and continued to devour the remnants that had not completely dispersed, even the only remaining empty shell body was refined into a corpse servant by Yang Zheng with the secret method of Xuanyin.

After splitting the corpse of this divine grace warrior, Lin Feng naturally collected the blood and soul of the devourer by killing, the madman who was filled with bloodthirsty **, and Feng Haitao, who was controlled by nearly 10,000 unjust souls, also rushed into the Spartan army array to continue hunting, Yang Zheng sacrificed the Xuanyin Banner, and continued to refine these military spirits with the method of restraining the soul, and the four ladies were not so bloodthirsty and brutal compared to them, and after occasionally killing the soldiers who invaded their side, they stood aside and coldly watched the entire battle situation.
