In the heart of the king of Sparta, he thought of his wife who was far away from home, the queen of Sparta. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

If the enemy dared to attack Sparta, the queen and the other Spartan ladies would not be afraid to act.

The women, who were also the wives, mothers, and daughters of other Spartan warriors, would not hesitate to take up arms and fight the enemy heroically.

And their combat effectiveness is definitely much stronger than those craftsmen from Athens!

So, the king of Sparta added to Xerxes: "Looking at the present situation, I may well send them into battle with them." ”

Leonidas thought about it, he still had something to say, and he had already planned it in his heart.

It's a ploy, a layout.

So he opened his mouth and said with a sneer, "Xerxes, although there are many slaves under your command, there are not many warriors!" It won't be long before the halberds of our Spartans will be more fearful to them than your whip. ”

Xerxes listened to this mocking and provocative answer, and a look of extreme confidence appeared in his eyes, as if he thought of some of his ace legions that swept through the nations.

He slowly looked back at the Persian army behind him, and said extremely pretendedly: "What they are afraid of is not the whip, but my divine might!" ”

"But I am a generous god, and I will make you incomparably rich, and I will make you the only king of Greece."

In my name, you will be the god of war of Europa, and all the city-states of Greece will be subject to you, and you 。。。。。。 Just surrender to me. ”

Coercion must be followed by lure, and Xerxes flaunts his god-like status and prestige in the Persian Empire.

Then, on the terms of the Greek co-lord, he persuaded Leonidas to submit to him again.

The king of Sparta did not know what his mind was, but he frowned and said in a sincere tone: "You are indeed very generous, just as you say of divine might, your messenger calls you the king of kings, and only a fool would refuse such a generous offer." ”

Hearing Leonidas say this, Xerxes couldn't help but smile.

He raised his chin high, like a big horse monkey that thought very highly of himself, and his expression revealed a haughty joy, waiting for the other party to kneel down in submission.

However, the king of Sparta did not kneel.

He turned around and took a few steps as if to leave.

I saw him turn his back to Xerxes and said in a low voice: "Although the conditions are rich, but... As for surrender, it's a bit difficult. ”

"Oh~ By the way, the former Babylon seems to have suffered a catastrophe because of its surrender to you."

"You are such a king who does not cherish the lives of your subjects, so cold-blooded that when I stand in front of you, my legs begin to cramp and I don't obey the call, so I really can't kneel!"

Hearing the king say Babylon, Ling Zifeng couldn't help but glance at Mo Sandi.

He found that the little beauty was quite calm, and seemed to hear the tragic experience of her homeland, and she didn't care too much.

However, Xerxes listened to Leonidas' sneering and sneering, and his heart was full of smoke.

He finally couldn't control his anger, trembled the muscles on his face, and roared with a hideous expression: "Then, you will die without glory." I will completely erase Sparta from history! ”

"All the books of Greek history will be burned, and all Greek historians and historians will gouge out their eyes, cut off their ears, and cut off their limbs! Anyone who worships Sparta, or Leonidas, will be put to death! No one in the world will know you once existed! ”

Leonidas rolled his eyes again, seemingly disgusted by Xerxes Rory's rambling threat.

He replied very calmly: "However, the world will know how the free man resists the tyrant!" ”

。。。。。。

The first peace talks between the two sides broke down.

Ling Zifeng looked at the leaders who were gradually retreating into their respective camps, thinking about the simple and domineering oath of King Onidas in front of him, and a feeling of blood boiling in his heart arose.

He didn't want to bother with his mission, so he killed the enemy side by side with King Leonidas, even if he died in battle, it seemed to be a good choice.

Of course, there is still a slight gap between "almost" and "certainly".

It was this little gap that pulled Ling Zifeng back from his boiling emotions.

He came to this world on a mission to kill Xerxes, not to die in battle with some mad king, and his desire to survive brought him back to his senses.

He looked at King Xerxes, who was drifting away, and said to King Leonidas with some helplessness: "I didn't rush to meet Xerxes with you before, otherwise I might have found an opportunity to strike him with magic. ”

"If Xerxes dies, the Persian army will definitely be in chaos, and the crisis at Thermopylae will be solved, hey, it's a pity."

Ling Zifeng couldn't help but shake his head, as if he regretted wasting these opportunities.

However, Leonidas also shook his head and said: "I don't think there will be such an opportunity, those slaves carrying the king's chase are all in good shape, not like ordinary slaves, they should be disguised by the Persian Janissaries." ”

"If you do it, these disguised Praetorian Guards will be able to chop you to pulp before you can cast your spell."

Ling Zifeng nodded helplessly, he knew that his magic release speed was too slow, which was a big flaw, and he probably thought that he didn't have much chance before, so he didn't try.

Now that Leonidas had confirmed his idea, he no longer regretted it, and once again thought about the next chance to kill Xerxes.

Judging from the overall plot development, Xerxes has been close to the hot springs a total of twice.

The first time was the persuasion just now, but it was obviously too far from the Spartan army.

The second time was before the Spartans were outflanked and about to be martyred, Xerxes came again to lobby Leonidas for the second time.

The first chance was over, and Ling Zifeng thought to himself that he didn't know if this second chance would happen.

After all, they sent a team of assassins to assassinate the hunchbacked man, and as long as the hunchbacked man died, the Persians themselves would not be able to find the shepherd's path.

As long as they could not find the trail, the Persians would not be able to flank the Spartans.

Maybe because of their assassination, the original plot direction has changed, and I don't know if there will be that chance to get close to Xerxes in the future.

These thoughts passed in Ling Zifeng's mind for a moment, and he looked at Mo Sandi beside him with a sad expression, knowing that she was more worried than himself now.

Her brother had been confirmed to be by Xerxes's side, but there was no way to rescue her, which made her not anxious.

Ling Zifeng collected his thoughts and comforted Mo Sandi with concern: "It's okay, now that it has been confirmed that your brother is by Xerxes's side, we can find an opportunity to kill Xerxes and rescue your brother sooner or later." ”

Leonidas also nodded affirmatively on the side and said: "The Persians will not give up the attack, the good news is that they are even weaker than I thought. ”

"As long as we hold out here for four days, we will be able to launch a counteroffensive as soon as reinforcements arrive, and then the Persians will surely be defeated, and we will definitely be able to help you rescue him."

Mo Sandi pursed her lips, nodded gratefully, and said, "Thank you." ”

Her voice trembled, and gratitude and anxiety were evident in her.

Leonidas waved and smiled, signaling that she didn't care.

Ling Zifeng also smiled and said: "Miss Mo, don't worry, we are all allies, and after the previous battle, we are all comrades-in-arms now, and the Spartans will never abandon their comrades-in-arms, and I will never do it." ”

The Spartans are indeed famous for their powerful military formations, but what makes them even more famous is their attitude towards their comrades on the battlefield, and they will never abandon them!

This sentence Ling Zifeng said to Mo Sandi's heart, she nodded gratefully, and there was a warmth in her heart.

But she thought that her brother was still suffering under Xerxes's obscenity, and her heart was full of discomfort.

Ling Zifeng sat down beside her and patted her on the shoulder, and said comfortingly: "Miss Mo, don't be sad, although you haven't said it all along, I know that you and your brother are definitely not ordinary people. ”

"You must be the descendants of some prince and nobleman, otherwise your brother would not have been so carefully enslaved by Xerxes."

He paused and continued, "In that case, your brother's life is safe. ”

"Because Xerxes must be afraid of your family's power, so he will enslave your brother by his side. As long as he is free of life, then sooner or later there will be a way to rescue him. ”

Mo Sandi didn't expect Ling Zifeng to actually see some of the keys to his family, although it was not the truth, but it was already eight or nine.

She said to Ling Zifeng with some admiration: "I didn't expect you to see it a long time ago, and I don't want to hide it from you, it's really a family rule, and you can't easily reveal it." ”

Ling Zifeng said indifferently: "It's okay, I can understand, we have the same goal and are allies, and thanks to your care along the way." ”

"Speaking of which, I owe you my life!"

He was talking about the time when he was almost killed by Leonidas' flying sword on the outskirts of Sparta.

Mo Sandi smiled slightly, her expression regained some calm, she looked at Ling Zifeng and said jokingly: "You owe me my life, how are you going to pay it back?" ”

Ling Zifeng scratched his head and said with a stupid smile: "This... I haven't thought about it yet... ”

He looked at Mo Sandi's still gloomy jade face, and felt pity in his heart.

Suddenly came to mind that I had read a certain bloody hooligan novel, and a certain sentence was very inadequate, and I naturally said it.

"Well... So... Can I make a promise to do it? ”

When Mo Sandi heard this, her fair face suddenly turned crimson like the morning glow, and then changed from crimson to anger.

Her apricot eyes were angry, and she couldn't help but scold: "You hooligan! Immediately, Jade Foot stomped on the ground and twisted his shoulders slightly, and turned his head to ignore Ling Zifeng.

Ling Zifeng looked at the jade man with a light anger and thought, "It's good that she didn't walk away with her sleeves or rush up and slap herself." He did this just to dilute Mo Sandi's depressed mood.

Of course, if he can also take care of flirting with this little beauty, he will be happy to do it.

Mo Sandi didn't expect that this seemingly serious guy would suddenly be so rogue.

However, thinking that he seemed to laugh intentionally or unintentionally, some inexplicable emotions rippled in his heart, and his anxious and heavy mood because he was worried about his brother was diluted a lot.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little awkward, and neither of them spoke, each thinking about their own thoughts.

King Leonidas on one side watched the young man sit together in a daze, as if in some story.

He grinned, as if thinking of something about his youth and his queen in a valley in Sparta.

The sun was setting in the west, and the first day of the Battle for the Guards of Onsen Pass had passed.

The brief interruption between Ling Zifeng and Mo Sandi seemed to ease Leonidas' tense nerves.

He rubbed his brow, which had been tightening, and turned around and ordered the warriors around him to pile up the corpses of the enemy in front of him into a wall again.

The Spartan warriors piled up the corpses of the Persians higher and wider.

I really don't know if the physical strength of these warriors is really endless, and in just over an hour, they used the corpses of the enemy to build another wall in front of the pass.

The king took advantage of the last rays of the setting sun to look at the Persian army on the other side.

He said to the warriors behind him, "Brothers, speed up. Heap the Persians high"

"If I'm not mistaken, tonight won't be peaceful."
