Eight hundred and fifteenth chapter cavalry attack
Before Efiati's words could be finished, the jingle sound appeared in Chen Yihan's ears, "Ding... Efiati's favorability to you +3; when the favorability reaches 10 points, you will permanently receive a little charm reward!"
When Chen Yihan heard these prompts, he looked at Efiati.
He couldn't help but think in his heart that the Spartan 300 Warriors is a great place to show off their favorability and charm.
"Haha! We can finally fight the Persians in the shade, haha..." Just as Chen Yihan thought this way, wild laughter came from the front. Then, the entire Spartans' queue burst into laughter. Obviously, they did not regard the predicament in front of them as a pressure, but instead linked it with the words of Persian envoys.
"Get up! Their arrows are finished."
Leonida ordered this and was the first to rise from the ground. At the same time, his eyes looked out of the gorge. At this time, smoke and dust had already emerged from the Persian camp. According to the progress of the movie, it was obvious that the Persian cavalry was about to come out of the camp and attack the gorge.
"Leonida! Beware of the cavalry, their cavalry is about to leave the camp."
Leonida heard Chen Yihan's reminder and looked at him with gratitude. When he saw Efiati being with Chen Yihan, the expression on his face was stunned at first, and then he raised his thumb up.
When Efiati saw Leonida's gesture, he stabbed the long halberd in his hand to the side of his body with force! At the same time, his face also changed to a proud expression. Although he failed to kill the enemy on the front line of the battle tonight, he had already rushed to the closest to the front line. This proved that he could become an excellent warrior!
"Closing the formation! The long halberd is ready, and their cavalry is coming."
Leonida had no time to pay attention to Efiati's actions. As he spoke, he turned his gaze back to his waist and inserted his sword back to his waist. After that, he raised a long halberd from the Persian corpse and held it tightly in his hand.
The Spartans who were beside Leonida also pulled out the long halberds on the Persians like him. When some people could not find the long halberds, they would hold the Persians' spear and stand back in the queue.
Persian cavalry came from the grasslands in the northeast.
Many of them were the Parthians and Masagtai, who were superb in equestrianism. When a large group of cavalry rushed into the gorge, the smoke and dust swept even more violently.
No matter which ethnic group these cavalry belong to, when they approached the Spartans' gun array, they would first throw the spear in their hands forward, and then use a saber or a battle axe to chop their shields.
At this time, under the command of Leonida, the Spartans used a formation similar to the Roman tortoise formation to defend against the harassment of Persian cavalry. When they found that the Persian cavalry was galloping in front, they would stab the long halberd out with all their strength from the people hiding in the middle of the gun array. In this way, the cavalry passing through the outside of the gun array would be assassinated by them on the horse.
"Han! We must find a way to help them. These Persians have heavy cavalry."
"Heavy Cavalry?" Chen Yihan's face changed to a surprised expression when he heard Efiati say this. In the movie of Spartan 300 Warriors, there were not many pictures of Persian cavalry! To be honest, the director of that film was not a person who was good at shooting war scenes. In this way, he left a lot of space for the main god.
"Yes! Heavy Cavalry. Both the Parthians and the Masagate have heavy cavalry."
"Okay! I know Parthia and their heavy cavalry." As an otaku, Chen Yihan once played a game called Rome Total War. He knew how awesome the Parthia heavy cavalry was in that game. In this way, he certainly had to worry about Leonida's future.
Just as Chen Yihan answered like this, the ground trembled again.
When his eyes looked away, there were already war horses wearing heavy armor appearing at the entrance of the gorge. Although these cavalry advanced slowly, both the horses and the warriors above were all wearing metal armor. In that era, they were like tanks made of steel.
"Brother Han. What are these things? How do they dress up like this?"
"This is what Efiati mentioned to the heavy cavalry! They are the nemesis of the heavy infantry." Chen Yihan frowned as hesitated. After hesitating for a while, he asked tentatively, "Xiao Jian, do you still have skeletons?"
"And! What should we do?" Jianlang said as he grabbed two skeletons from the Lord God's Medal and sent them to Chen Yihan.
"Lie, take this thing! Let's go to the front to release poison gas."
Chen Yihan shouted while throwing the skeleton into Lie's hand. After that, he ordered the Guy Wolf. "Go closer to the Spartans' gun array and use the Donghuang Bell to protect them!"
"Don't worry! Brother Han, I can." The bastard said, but his eyes saw Efiati's body, "Let's go! Efiati, it's time for us to help Leonida."
"That's great! I'm always waiting for this day in my dreams." Efiati covered the bastard wolf and leaned towards the Spartans' square formation.
"Leonida, tell your people to cover their mouths and noses! Let's go and add some materials to the Persian heavy cavalry. When they come over, you will chop their horse legs." Chen Yihan shouted in a loud voice as he passed by the Spartans along the rock wall.
"I understand, Han! My friend."
Leonida responded and looked at the rock wall. When he saw Chen Yihan and Lie standing almost upright on the rock wall, his face also had a look of shock. But this expression did not last long, and he turned his attention back to commanding the Spartans.
"Let's go! Lie, we need to give them some medicine. In this way, they will be honest."
"Han, I'll listen to you, let's do it." With Lie's response, Chen Yihan rushed down from the rock wall. At the same time, he threw a skeleton hard toward the ground. When the skeleton hit the ground and broke, a thick green haze rose from it.
"Hui'er! Huhhhh..."
When the war horses smelled the smell of poisonous fog, they began to sway around. After that, regardless of the command of the cavalry, they began to circulate constantly or run towards places without green haze.
Although these guys wearing heavy armor have strong combat power, when they lose control, they are really not easily controlled by the cavalry. Not only that, Chen Yihan and Lie, who had cast a skeleton, were also shuttled through the cavalry formation. Although these cavalry all carried heavy armor, there were always weak places on their bodies. There became the targets of their attack.
When Chen Yihan did this, he did not forget to remind the wolf through the team channel to urge Leonida to advance.
Under the protection of the Donghuang Bell, Leonida's Spartan formation was really like a god of war. They were invincible and charged forward, and the cavalry they encountered were assassinated to the ground. When they rushed into the queue of heavy cavalry, they even swept off their horse's legs and put them to the ground.
When these heavily armored cans of iron are really falling to the ground, it is difficult for them to climb up from the ground independently. In this way, the Spartans can stab them directly to the ground with their long halberds.
When the Persians found that their cavalry could not break through the Spartans' defense, they paused their pace of attack. Now they had to consider taking a more effective approach to dealing with Leonida.
Leonida saw the Persians retreating and did not chase them forward.
He only had three hundred soldiers who could fight in his hands. Now he had to do the most was to defend the pass and not let Xerxes' army take the Hot Spring Pass. At the same time, he was of course afraid of the Persian rain of arrows. In his opinion, his army could not be so lucky every time to dodge all these arrows.
With the order to withdraw troops, the Spartans retreated back to the pass of the Hot Spring Pass as quickly as possible.
After that, they rebuilt the low wall with Greek friendly forces and used it to defend against the sneak attacks that the Persians might launch in the middle of the night. Of course, the materials used to build the low wall have been replaced by stones to the Persian corpses.
When Leonida led his troops to fight at Hot Spring Pass, the queen was also busy in Sparta.
She was not the kind of woman who was timid or worried about her husband. What she had to do now was of course convince the parliament to support Leonida's behavior and send troops to Hot Springs to help her husband.
Fortunately, Xiaowan has been by the queen's side. Xi Lang wanted to attack the child several times, but she discovered it in time and stopped it secretly. This made Xi Lang really hate and fear the queen! However, Xi Lang is not a person who is easy to give up. The more this happens, the more Xi Lang wants to stop the queen's behavior.
At this side of the hot spring pass, the Spartans had been experiencing a day of fierce battles and mostly rested on the ground.
At this time, Leonida leaned against the rock wall and sat next to Chen Yihan. Now Efiati was sitting on a stone near the sea, and was looking at the scene inside the sea from afar.
Seeing that Efiati had no intention of looking back, Leonida whispered to Chen Yihan, "Han, thank you. I really don't know how to deal with Efiati."
"Nothing! He wants to be a real warrior, I just give him such a chance." Chen Yihan said, with a smile on his face, "Leonida, the real test is still behind. Our battle with the Persians has just begun."
"Your Majesty! Someone wants to see you on the side of the low wall."
"Someone is here?" Leonida thought and stood up.
"Will they want to assassinate you?" the centurion asked nervously.
"No! The Persians are not so stupid. If they assassinate me now, the parliament will pass a resolution and send troops to the Hot Spring Pass, which is exactly what I want to see."
"Go! Leonida. This is just a meeting between kings, you will not be in any danger." (To be continued) i580
