Chapter 621: Horizontal Mane Crown
The hot springs were closed, miserable and miserable.
Persian navy, getting closer.
"General, you go first. The Persians hate you to the core, and if you don't go, they're afraid they'll launch a legendary challenge. You are the only legend in the hot springs, and they have more secrets. ”
"Su Ye, you also retreat immediately. If you don't go, you can only surrender, and if you don't, they will inevitably kill you at all costs. ”
"Su Ye, you leave, I'll break off here." Leonidas said suddenly.
"I'll stay here too!" Pollux and Castor said at the same time.
Suddenly, Leonidas raised his arms and slashed his hands lightning at the back of Pollux and Castor's necks.
The two of them snorted, closed their eyes, and passed out.
Leonidas picked up the two men and threw them to the guards.
"Take both of them safely back to Sparta."
"General......
"Get out!"
Four of Leonidas' soldiers picked up the twin brothers and walked away quickly.
Leonidas turned and stood beside Micyades.
The rays of the setting sun fell on his crown of red mane, which was particularly vivid.
"In Sparta, the helmets of ordinary soldiers are red vertical manes, but the top of the heads of middle and high-ranking generals must be horizontal, because only with the red mane across the head, the soldiers in the rear can see the leader clearly, and can know the direction and goal in the chaotic battle. However, this also led to the fact that every Spartan with a mane would be attacked by the enemy in the most dense manner. ”
"So, the whole world calls it the stupidest helmet."
The crowd listened quietly.
"We knew about it from the moment we put on the crown of the mane, but no one ever took it off. Because we know that every Spartan warrior goes to the battlefield, not to save his life, not to avoid being attacked, but to win! ”
"From the moment we put on the red mane crown, we understood that this helmet was the strongest force to push us forward!"
"What can't kill us will make us stronger!"
"Today is the time to witness Sparta!"
"Sparta!"
Leonidas roared.
"Sparta!"
The handful of Spartan warriors next to him roared.
"Sparta!"
The Spartans roared together.
Su Ye was silent, these barbarians with muscles in their heads would really stay here.
"You can retreat." Meders Dow.
"Once the whole army retreats, we will encounter a continuous pursuit of the Persian army. Therefore, Thermopay Pass needs to be broken by someone, as long as the Persian army is delayed, the navy will not dare to go deep alone, and more Greek soldiers will be withdrawn. Leonidas said.
The generals will be silent, indeed.
Leonidas turned and looked at Suye.
"You did your best in Proguan, you did your best in the mountain roads of the Tempe Valley, and you did your best in Hot Springs. Now, as the eldest son of the demigod family, I have taken over the command of the Hot Spring Pass, and you, Su Ye, must leave immediately! ”
Everyone was stunned for a moment before reacting, indeed, the demigod family has the privilege of taking over command at a critical moment.
However, it hasn't happened for many years.
As long as the temple does not object, then the demigod family will have supreme command.
Misthiades watched in silence at the approaching Persian fleet in the distance.
Meders also looked into the distance.
Su Ye stared at Leonidas.
"You are the hope of Greece, unlike others." Leonida showed a bright smile, his white teeth seemed to glow, and then he reached out and patted Su Ye's shoulder hard.
Su Ye looked at Leonidas blankly.
Such a hero is really so dazzling at any time.
Su Ye sighed lightly, thought about it, and finally didn't say the message that Wang Da Hammer gave him.
Wait.
In the tragic atmosphere, groups of hot spring customs soldiers evacuated.
However, many city-states left no less than Spartan warriors.
Athens, Tebay, Corinth, Arcadia, Mantinia, Sesby, etc., as well as Rocles, who was left behind.
Su Ye looked at the resolute and unflustered faces, and his heart was surging.
On the Blue Star, there was also such a battle of Thermopylae, where more than 7,000 warriors from various city-states, plus more than 300 Spartan warriors, and the Helots of Sparta, defended Thermopay for many days in front of the Persian army dozens of times their own, winning precious time for Greece.
Su Ye walked to the other side of the Hot Spring Pass, stood on the wall behind and looked at the narrow road, and the guards of the Hot Spring Pass retreated to the rear.
However, in the mainstream that continues to move backwards, there is always a part of the people who suddenly turn around and go back against the current.
They couldn't hear the call of their comrades, they couldn't hear the roar of the generals, they silently returned, and silently walked back to Hot Spring Pass.
The mainstream is advancing, but the countercurrent has never stopped.
Su Ye took a deep breath and slowly walked back to the city wall in front of him, looking at the triumphant Persian army and the Persian navy that continued to advance.
Tonight, the Persian navy will be able to go around to the rear.
The last shred of light in the sky fell.
The earth was shrouded in darkness.
The hot springs are brightly lit, but it is like the darkest hour.
In the end, Su Ye received the final data.
A full 20,000 men remained at Thermopylae, as many freedom fighters and some generals were reluctant to leave their comrades here.
There seems to be some power that lights up everyone's heart.
The huge Persian fleet swept across the sea on the side of Thermopylae like a giant sea dragon.
This sea dragon seems to drive the night breeze.
The night breeze blows the hot springs.
The cloak behind the back of the Spartan warrior was raised, whirring along with the flames of the torches.
Ahead of the Thermopylae, the Persian army waited quietly.
Wait for the moment when the hot springs are chaotic.
In the dark night, on the warships of the Persian fleet, a pair of sparkling eyes looked at the hot springs.
Like a pack of wolves.
"Why don't you go?" Leonidas stared at Su Ye.
"I can't die anyway, I can run if I can, and surrender if I can't." Su Ye understated.
"You shouldn't stay."
"No, Admiral Mitaide should run away with me." Su Ye looked at Mitaed.
Mithiades sighed and said nothing.
Su Ye turned his head to look at Euclid, who had been excessively silent and serious these days, and said, "You must have mastered the long-distance teleportation method, right?" As long as the other party doesn't have a Sanctuary Destiny Warlock to make a move, we'll all leave safely, right? ”
"Theoretically, but for some reason, I always had the feeling that someone was staring at me." Euclid Road.
"You think too much, with the three of us here, it's not your turn to target you." Su Ye Dao.
"Yes, although I'm actually better than all three of you." Euclid's words drew three pairs of white eyes from Mithiades, Leonidas, and Suye.
Eventually, all of the Persian fleet swept over the flanks of Thermopylae.
Everyone sighed heavily.
The miracle has not yet come.
Su Ye was still looking at the sea in the distance, the direction in which the Persian fleet came.
"The Persian army has begun to land!"
After Mithaides finished speaking, the guards hurried to the back side of the hot spring pass and looked into the distance.
Dozens of miles away, the Persian fleet was capturing the port, and the defenders of the port were holding on without retreating.
However, the headquarters of the coalition forces have been completely withdrawn.
The Persian fleet was like a pack of wolves covering the steppe, and the defenders of the harbor were like a small tribe.
Su Ye suddenly turned around, left the rear of the Hot Spring Pass, and headed for the city wall in front of the Hot Spring Pass.
"The Persian army has begun to attack the city!"
The generals immediately returned to the front of Thermopylae, and saw the Persians attacking the city again, but, unlike before, this time with a large number of light infantry.
Su Ye snorted coldly, and continued to let the lamp god guard the front, the ice wind and the wind responded, and the earth and the sky stayed by his side.
In front of Thermopylae, the Persians were constantly attacking, but to the Greeks, it was nothing more than a piece of ash about to be burned out by the fire of hell.
Most of the generals' attention was focused on the rear of Hot Springs, the battle of the port.
The hot spring pass is like a hot and humid summer night, and it is turned upside down by the steamer.
Suddenly, there was a faint cheer from behind the hot spring gate.
A great piece of bad news spread throughout the city.
The Persians captured the ports in the rear!
The land forces of the Persian warships began to land!
The hot springs are in danger.
The Greek army fled in panic and mourned all over the field.
The Persians in front of Thermopylae suddenly stopped their siege.
"Su Ye, spit out what you gained from the battle in front of the battle!" The Sanctuary warrior Addus shouted.
Hastin, the legendary Persian general, smiled.
Between the Thermothermal Pass and the Persian army, the strange smell of barbecue has not yet dissipated, and everyone seems to have forgotten how tragic the battle in the hellfire was before.
Everything before is not important.
Next, the Persians, who had just landed, were to outflank the Thermothermal Pass from the rear.
Hot springs off, messed up.
Even those generals, those who already have the heart of death, are in turmoil in their hearts!
Su Ye has endured it all the time, and has never said the transmission of Wang Da Hammer from afar.
"It's a pity that the tide is gone." Commodus sighed.
Leonidas said helplessly: "The Athena is powerful, but only if there is a Greek navy, otherwise a single ship is no match for any navy at all." Since Persia was able to break through the Strait of the Hunters, it is very likely that most of the Greek warships were destroyed, and the isolated Athena could only return. ”
"Even if the Battle of Themis is unparalleled, there is no power to return to the sky."
"Next, give up complaining, give up luck, and do your best!"
"One more day for Greece and one more point for our chances of winning."
Suddenly, above the city walls, someone shouted.
"Look!"
"What's that?"
"It's like a mountain floating on the sea!"
"Is that the second fleet of Persia?"
"It's over, the hot springs are closed."
The Greek generals looked in horror at the Gulf of Maris in front of them, in the direction of the Strait of the Hunters, and in the direction of the Persian navy.
Between the pitch-black sea and the blue-black sky, a dark shadow slowly approached.
The black shadow led by the head stands tall, dividing the sea water and opening the starry sky above, as if it is a giant standing on the sky, stepping on the water.
What a mighty Persia!
It turns out that they hide such a powerful power!
What a terrifying power, it is simply an unprecedented sea monster.
