Chapter 399: The Battle of Troy (11)
When the Trojan prince heard the voice pointing at him again, his heart couldn't help but welled up with ecstasy, although he knew that it was not from Apollo, the patron god of the city-state, Hector still respected and even respected, but unfortunately the voice gradually fell down after it appeared, like a looming figure leaving the palace and walking away.

"It must be some god who is friendly to Troy who has favored us so much, going from battle to battle, accumulating little advantages in order to win the final victory. ”
Lu Bin incarnated as a phantom and wandered around the Trojan royal city, he had no interest in approaching the temple of Apollo with golden aura, but just glanced at the Trojan princess Kassandra from a distance, the priestess of the sun god Apollo, her first half of her life was quite happy, and the second half of her life was a tragedy.
Kassandra, a black-haired girl who looks like Aphrodite, did not participate in the feast of the palace, she was praying for the blessing of the two brothers who died on the battlefield, and vaguely noticed that someone was peeping, although she had long been accustomed to it, but those indifferent eyes did not have the lust of ordinary people to pull off their clothes, but more just pity and appreciation.
"Appreciation, I probably understand what's going on. Mercy, did the other party foresee my fate. ”
Princess Troy was not a fool, and with the prophetic powers bestowed by the sun god Apollo, Kassandra saw the city of Troy burned to the ground. Since this majestic city will fall to the enemy, the Trojans, including the royal family and the priests, will inevitably fall to a miserable end.
Kassandra's ability to see the rise and fall of city-states and kingdoms is not the only way to see her own fate, and if she can predict her future, she will be out of the control of the gods.
Thinking of this, the most beautiful princess of the Trojan royal family couldn't help but take a deep breath and let out a long sigh.
The feast of the royal palace would come to an end, and the hustle and bustle of the Trojans celebrating their victory faded as the night wore on.
The sky was as black as ink, and before the bright-faced Apollo polished it with his rose-red fingers, the Greeks were stationed with warriors ready to go, led by various heroes, and marched towards the castles, villages and towns of the Trojan Kingdom.
The Mirmidons and Thessalians, led by Achilles, were led by the first hero and rode on a warship to kill the kingdom of Corone.
Most of the Greek warriors, after breakfast, camped in front of the city of Troy, dug a trench against snakes and insects, burned wet wood for sprinkling herbs, and smoked out all invisible rats and ants.
When the Trojans, who had never let up, found out for the first time, they immediately mobilized their warriors to the top of the city, and the battle sequence entered their respective positions, but they did not take the initiative to attack.
King Aeneas of Daldania, son-in-law of King Priam and husband of Princess Creusa, had the second most powerful relationship with the lord Hector, and he had his retinue clear the sandbags of the moat, restoring the muddy river tainted by war to its clear water.
Lu Bin walked behind Hector in the form of a phantom: "The main force of the Greeks besieged Troy, and the elite warriors, led by heroes, launched attacks on various regions and allies of the kingdom. ”
The Trojan lord had no doubts because of the confidence accumulated by the repeated instructions, and Hector was also aware of the Greeks' movements, and after a moment of silence, he relayed his "speculation" to his brothers and allies who had come to Troy's aid.
"Kuknos, your kingdom of Coronai is the most dangerous! The first hero of Greece will surely come to you for trouble by snatching Achilles' sharpshooter and stabbing his close friend. ”
The son of Poseidon looked at Hector to make sure that he was not joking, and his face became solemn: "To be honest, even if I have an invulnerable god body and a talent similar to that of Achilles, I am no match for him. After all, Achilles was taught by the sage Charon and possessed many god-given graces, and he was indeed stronger than me. ”
Hearing that the proud King Corone considered himself inferior to Achilles, Hector's face not only did not tense, but smiled with relief.
"Kuknos, my friend, you are the son of His Highness Poseidon, the Earth Shaker, and you have the ability to summon fish and floods, and you should be able to create a shipwreck, right?"
Hector heard the guidance of the mysterious voice in the dark, and immediately retold it to Kuknos that he knew, and seeing him nod slightly, the Trojan lord couldn't help but laugh: "Then what are you waiting for? Immediately catch up with the self-righteous Achilles and let his subordinates all die in the belly of the fish." There are no many warriors, only one man, how can he attack the city?
Kuknos immediately understood, but he turned to look at the dense crowd of Greeks outside the city, and turned his embarrassed gaze to Hector, as if to ask him for help.
"We are all allies on the same side, and in order for you to avoid the Greeks outside the city and go to the seaside not far away, I can call the shots and let you use the secret passage to the outside of the city. This was originally a royal secret, and now there is no need to hide it. ”
Hector's words immediately won the hearts of many of the allies present, whose worst fears would not happen, there was a hidden retreat, and there was no better news than this for the situation of being besieged by a large number of Greeks.
The Trojan princes on the city walls, looking at the helmeted Hector, did not know what to say, and the first hero of his own side immediately added: "You can take the secret path to the north, we sent our little brother Polyidolos to Thrace earlier, and this is the way." ”
Lu Bin saw his kind guidance, so that the passively defensive Trojan Alliance began to take the initiative to attack, rescue the territories of the allies who were attacked in various places, and snipe the Greeks who were keen to rob the city-states and obtain rich war profits, and couldn't help but nod secretly.
"There are many heroes of the Trojan Alliance, and there are even more demigod princes in the Greek Alliance, including the descendants of Poseidon the Sea King. The bloodline comes from the same divine source, and it is even fighting to the death for the unrelated Troy. The atrocities of the gods of the Holy Mountain are truly disgusting to me. Wouldn't it be better for these demigod heroes to use on expeditions to other worlds?"
King Corone led his warriors, under the personal guidance of Hector, to leave the Trojan city through a secret passage deep underground, and he knew that Achilles led the people to the sea, and because the terrain was not very familiar, there was a possibility of catching up.
So Kuknos used his bloodline talent to summon giant sharks and manta rays from the rough seas, untie the straps of his sandals, and make improvised fish saddles on the spot. Then, he ordered his men to straddle up, clasp the shark's vertical fins like sawblades with both hands, and with a greeting, he led the Coronai warriors back to their homeland.
Since the departure of King Kuknos of Coronai, the Trojan allies have also left one after another, and they all see that the Greeks are not capable of attacking this majestic city, and they must return to help as soon as possible for the sake of their own city-state and kingdom.
Majestic and majestic, due to the departure of most of the heroes, both camps have different declines. The Greek coalition, which did not lack smart people, immediately saw the details of the Trojan royal city, but unfortunately despite this, they did not come up with a good solution.
Continuing the siege will only lead to bloodshed and death, losing more lives of Greek warriors, and the heroes are selfish and desperate for their own honor, but they are not stupid.
When Diomedes, king of Argos, lost his god-given weapon and a strong arm under the city of Troy, the others would surely not die in vain.
"On the first day of the battle, the Trojan Alliance took the initiative to attack, once in the morning and once in the afternoon, and the results were considerable, and the battle loss rate of one to five was still stained with the light of the enemy's general poor condition. As for the counterattack launched by the Greek coalition army after being stunned by two consecutive heavy punches from the opponent, as well as three siege attacks, they gained very little, but lost the lives of many innocent soldiers. Now besieging the city on all sides but not attacking it, it is obvious that he has suffered hardships, and has turned to the tactics of long-term garrison and encirclement to send reinforcements. The situation has also changed from a fierce collision at the beginning to a strategic stalemate. It can be said that the top management of both sides is IQ online. ”
Lu Bin pondered for a moment, felt the peep of Apollo the Bright-faced One in the sunlight, and immediately left Hector's shadow and appeared beside the King of Coronay, Kuknos.
In the light blue inshore waters, there are more than 500 giant sharks carrying the Coronai warriors at a rapid pace on the surface of the sea, while Kukonos is standing on the back of a giant manta ray and speeding through the air.
"Worthy of being the son of Poseidon with the highest concentration of blood, the sea warriors of Hira Island are completely incomparable to Kuknos, no matter how much divine grace there is, there is a limit, but the bloodline is thicker than water. ”
Thinking of this, Lu Bin looked around and soon made a discovery: "This chasing army returning to the homeland has a speed of nearly thirty knots, and it should be able to catch up with the oars boat with enough wind power." ”
His judgment was not wrong, and without the interference of the gods of the Holy Mountain, Kuknos, the son of Poseidon, led his warriors to bite Achilles' fleet in an area only one nautical mile from the Corone coastline.
Seeing the twenty oared boats, like deadly daggers, ready to plunge into the kingdom he had painstakingly managed, Kuknos immediately took off the conch tied to his belt, and used his unique bloodline talent to summon Yuxun.
"Today is not for fishing, nor for showing strength to neighboring allies, but to defend our coastline from being tarnished by the barbaric and rude Greeks. To defend the majesty of Poseidon, the Earthshaker, and to protect our brothers and family from the Greeks who were keen to raid the city-state. ”
The Coronai warriors were all inspired by the words of King Kuknos, it is never a wrong thing to defend their homeland, and any means can be used to defeat outsiders who invade the land.
Lu Bin heard the sound of a bright and clear conch, which spread like ripples to the vast desert ocean, and then, all kinds of fish heard the call and rushed towards the area where Kuknos and the others were.
The fastest are the flying fish, which have crystal clear fins and are able to burst out of the sea and glide low for short periods of time. One or two may be called interesting, one or two hundred may be called wonders, and one or two thousand may be terrible disasters.
The first wave of fish floods quietly came, and thousands of flying fish rushed towards the Greek paddle boats like a tide.
The flying posture, the crystal water, the foam that burst at a glance, constantly bombarded the solid plank. The paddle boat, which was as steady as a rock, was terribly tilted under the constant impact of the flying fish, and the mast and sail creaked and made a tooth-souring sound.
"It's falling, it's going to fall!"
