Chapter 119: Unscientific Alexander VI

The battlefield, which was about to settle the dust, became fierce again, and Alexander's troops, who were chasing the retreating Persian army, were suddenly attacked and completely stunned for a while!

Moreover, Alexander himself was flanking the last formed Persian army with a Macedonian phalanx, and there was no way to give orders!

Paminio, Alexander's general, who had just defeated the Persian flank army, was stunned to see the Spartan rebels that suddenly appeared on the battlefield and crushed one of his own troops one after another, and hurriedly led his proud Thessalian cavalry to abandon the pursuit of the fleeing Persian soldiers and began to charge at the Spartan rebels!

These warriors, who felt that they were not inferior to Alexander's friendly cavalry, even though they had just defeated the Persian general Baisu's elite Persian cavalry who had no fighting spirit, and their physical strength was greatly lost, they still charged towards the Spartan rebels with full physical strength without hesitation!

They were greeted by the already discovered Spartan pikemen and more than 1,000 Spartan archers!

After a few rounds of arrows, the Thessaline cavalry gritted their teeth and endured the sharp pain of the arrows all over their bodies, and continued to charge under the protection of their armor!

They have their own pride, and they will not allow them to flee!

Of course, their armor also allows them to reduce their losses very well, the iron armor can well jam the rain of arrows thrown over, these bows and arrows are not English longbows, and there are no special armor-piercing arrows, for these heavily armored targets, the lethality is not very ideal!

But even if it wasn't ideal, after a few rounds of arrow rain, the Thessaly cavalry fell by hundreds!

More than half of the rest had arrows stuck in their bodies!

Pamiño personally led the charge of the Thessalian cavalry, allowing the Spartan pikemen to fully see the real gap between these ancient elites and the so-called elites of the pioneers!

To put it bluntly, the elite of the pioneer and Li Liguo is just copied from the ancient elite, and the replicas are so powerful, not to mention these original goods?

Well, the gap between the two is not too big, at most it is reflected in combat experience and morale. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It can be said that the Thessalian cavalry was an army with strong spiritual beliefs, and they firmly believed that the battle with Alexander would be won!

Then they crashed headlong into the Spartan phalanx of pikes!

They weren't stupid enough to crash directly into the super-long spear, there were no stirrups in this era, and the cavalry did not win by ramming, but the traditional slashing and stabbing with weapons!

The Thessalian cavalry used their agility and speed to start a new battle with the Spartan pikemen.

There are not many of Alexander's troops who can fight like the Thessalian cavalry and Li Liguo's elite, and most of Alexander's tired troops are constantly retreating by the sprint of the Spartan pikemen, but they retreat back and retreat, and they are not collapsed by the blow!

The biggest result was the men and horses led by Ares, the real power of those Macedonian phalanxes was all reflected in the phalanx as a whole, after being scattered by Ares and others, even if these Macedonians did not retreat from the battle, they actually did not have much combat power!

Already physically weak, without the support of the phalanx, these Macedonians were simply slaughtered again, just like the Persians before them!

Li Liguo's face was gloomy as he looked at the battle situation that had been advantageous everywhere but could not be won, and glanced at Alexander, who had already defeated the last army of Persia, and knew where the key point of victory in this war was!

This kind of war made Li Liguo extremely uncomfortable, almost all the morale of those troops was maintained on one person, as if as long as that person did not fail, his own army could fight in a stalemate!

Of course, if it's a real devastation, that's another story, but unfortunately, Li Liguo's elite is not many, even if he attacks those tired Alexander troops, it is difficult to play a quick avalanche advantage!

After Alexander's troops came to their senses, the first army was not very useful, these soldiers were not very enthusiastic about fighting, and they were a little powerless against Alexander's high-morale troops, so the most task of the soldiers of the first army was just to follow the elite of Ares and expand the results!

The effect is good, the Macedonian phalanx that collapsed in the middle of the chase has been completely annihilated, Li Liguo is extremely jealous of Alexander's Macedonian phalanx, and the first step to eliminate is those large-scale Macedonian phalanxes, so when Alexander finished solving the Persians, he was horrified to find that the Macedonian phalanx in the battlefield had been completely defeated, and was suffering from the slaughter of a group of light infantry without even armor!

Alexander could see at a glance the strength of the light infantry that the other side occupied the majority, and he took his friendly cavalry and the last Macedonian phalanx, drove the old war horse he was sitting on, and brandished his war knife and rushed towards Li Liguo's vanguard army line again!

Under Li Liguo's order, the soldiers of the Xiandeng Army quickly formed a complete front, and then first collided with Alexander's friendly cavalry, and a gap was opened by force, and then the classic Macedonian phalanx followed, and finally the soldiers of the Xiandeng Army collapsed......

Li Liguo looked at Alexander's rudimentary cavalry team in surprise, these are the people who chiseled through the formation of 20,000 soldiers of the first army, even if they were sweating profusely and panting, but as if as long as Alexander was there, they had infinite courage, and they were always in a state of moving forward!

The front of the advance army was broken through and then collapsed, but Li Liguo didn't care at all, he didn't expect these soldiers to achieve any results, even if they were being slaughtered, he didn't care!

All Li Liguo wants is time, time for Ares to take the legendary Spartan warrior on a detour!

The speed of Alexander's breakthrough was indeed beyond Li Liguo's budget, but the time was enough, more than 20,000 people would have to cut for a while even if they stood still and let them cut, and he was not like Darius, standing on a golden chariot, for fear that the enemy would not see him......

Therefore, Alexander did not find out where Li Liguo was, he was just killing and weakening the enemy's forces as much as possible, completely killing these outnumbered enemy troops, and then going to support other places, just as he attacked the Persian army!

And just when the soldiers of the Pioneer Army were massacred, the legendary Spartan warriors led by Ares had already detoured back to the flank of the last Macedonian phalanx, and Ares did not hesitate to plunge into it!
