The hot springs were densely packed with corpses, and the morale of the camps on both sides showed two extremes, the Spartans not only became more and more courageous, but the 301 warriors were actually slowly moving forward, killing a row of corpses that crossed that row, and continued to deal with the Persian soldiers in front.

However, the pace of the Persians rushing forward has slowed down, and the formation has begun to be disturbed by Wang Yi and a few of them, and the Persians will trip over the corpses of their comrades in front of them if they don't pay attention, forming a chain reaction, and they don't even know how their comrades in front of them died, plus the Spartans are advancing steadily and slowly, their morale is close to collapse.

"Whew! Drink! Call! Drink! ”

When the Spartans saw that some of the Persians were beginning to retreat, they cheered and laughed, and their mouths uttered all kinds of mocking cries.

In this way, without anyone giving an order, hundreds of thousands of Persian soldiers began to slowly retreat, and the Spartans saw that the Persians were ready to retreat, and the pace of progress began to speed up, but the formation was still not chaotic, and they moved forward quickly and uniformly, shouting while killing!

Under such a momentum, the last remaining fighting spirit of the Persian army was also disintegrated, and they began to flee in a panic, and the Spartans were steadily chasing and killing in front, if this picture was not seen with his own eyes, Wang Yi could not imagine what kind of scene it was for 300 people to chase hundreds of thousands of people.

The battle was over, it lasted for a total of ten minutes, the Spartans overwhelmingly defeated the hundreds of thousands of Persian troops, and now the Greek coalition saw that the Persians had retreated, so they came out of the hot springs to clean up the battlefield and rearrange the battlefield and defenses.

"You're good!"

Leonidas looked at Wang Mingzhi and said, he didn't know what Wang Yi did, but Wang Mingzhi's treatment they really felt, this magical power is enough to make Spartans respectful, and Wang Mingzhi's figure is very similar to Spartans, only half a head shorter than Leonidas.

Wang Yi smiled, he didn't take credit from Wang Mingzhi, saying that he also contributed to Yunyun and was able to block the first wave of defense, and there should be a period of rest next.

"Uh......h Woo......"

The long whistle of several horn flutes sounded, and everyone looked down from the walls of the Hot Springs, where the Persian soldiers, who were more numerous than before, marched in a neat line towards the Hot Springs, and there was a huge palanquin in the middle of the army.

Yes, the palanquin, because it was carried forward by an unknown number of Persian coolies by manpower, and sitting on it was the supreme being among the Persians, King Xerxes I.

He was dressed in a peculiar attire, with a sense of the heavy metal style of later generations, with thin and long metal chains draped over his body, and his height was higher than that of ordinary people.

At this moment a man came out of the army of the Persians, went to the city wall and shouted, "Let Leonidas meet the Persian king Xerxes I, presumably for the purpose of recruiting him."

Bite!

Mission Update!

Main Quest: Defend Hot Springs.

Side Quest: Kill Xerxes I.

As soon as the herald finished shouting, indicating that the person on the sedan chair was Xerxes, several people's spaces issued a prompt at the same time, and there was no superfluous introduction to these two tasks, only names, simple and rude.

Several people glanced at each other, the task of defending Hot Springs Pass was expected by them, but this side quest was unexpected, this plane did not have any fantasy color, Xerxes was just an ordinary human being, not to mention Wang Yi's ice twin guns, maybe even his previous revolver hit the head could kill Xerxes in seconds, so this task was given for nothing?

Before they could think about what to do, Leonidas had already opened the gates and walked out, at this time neither side would launch a sneak attack, and if either side did so, it would be spurned and crusaded against by the whole world.

"As long as you agree that your Sparta belongs to our Persia, I can immediately order the withdrawal of the army!

We in Persia don't need your land, we don't need your population. ”

Xerxes's conditions were simple and crude, he was not a tyrant, although he gathered a large army to attack Greece, but his original intention was only to take revenge, his father Darius I, in the well-known Battle of Marathon, was defeated by Athens, and finally even died directly, the purpose of his trip was mainly Athens, not Sparta.

"You should know that we, Sparta, will not yield to anyone!"

Leonidas slowly turned around, turned his back to Xerxes, and said.

He actually hoped that Xerxes would attack him when he turned around, and then kill himself, so that the king of his country would be attacked and killed on the battlefield, and there would be no reason for the council not to send troops against Persia, right?

In fact, he also knew in his heart that it was impossible for 300 men to stop the army of the Persians, who were ready to die with him, including himself.

However, Xerxes I did not do this, he just put his hand on Leonidas's shoulder, and did not make a sound, and the scene was very quiet.

"That's not the way to talk about it? You Sparta will perish because of your decision. ”

Xerxes also turned around, and the Persian coolies bent down and set up a ladder for Xerxes to board the huge palanquin.

The conversation collapsed, the Persian army turned back in a very orderly manner, retreated, and did not take the opportunity to attack the hot spring pass, and Leonidas also had an inexplicable look on his face, I don't know whether to be disappointed or admired, and then walked back to the hot spring pass.

Because of the customs of the Spartans, men trained and exercised from an early age, and women governed the family and other things, in Sparta, the status of women was higher than that of men, so the whole Sparta, there was not a single field, and the Spartans would not farm.

And because of their customs, the ones who can grow up to the big ones are strong warriors, but more of them fall in the process of growth, so the reason for the small population of the Spartans, no matter how they develop, they will not be stronger than city-states like Athens, let alone Persia.

The Spartans also didn't know too many words, they didn't learn it systematically from childhood to adulthood, they only learned words related to battles, as long as they could not make mistakes in battle, it was enough, so Leonidas had an indescribable feeling in his heart, for Xerxes.

"Why didn't you just kill him?"

Bo Zai took out a heavy ***, this gun is not someone else's, it is the killer's last time, it was confiscated by Bo Zai for his own use, and it can also be brought to the plane, just now he wanted to kill the heavy metal fanatic directly with one shot, but it was Ke

Stopped.

"Space doesn't have such an easy task!

If you kill him, maybe the Persians go crazy and flatten the hot springs directly, causing the main quest to fail, or maybe he has other hole cards around him or himself, which is not easy to kill. ”

Ke

According to the analysis, the side quest of space release is likely to be a pitfall.
