Chapter 621: Horizontal Mane Crown
The hot springs are closed, miserable.
The Persian Navy, getting closer.
"General, you go first. The Persians hate you to the core. If you don't leave, they may launch a legendary challenge. Hot Spring Pass only has one legend for you, and they secretly have more."
"Suye, you also retreat immediately. If you don't leave, you can only surrender. If you don't surrender, they will definitely kill you at all costs."
"Suye, you go away, I'll cut off the queen here." Leonidas said suddenly.
"I'll stay here too!" Pollux and Castor said at the same time.
Suddenly, Leonidas raised her arms and slashed Pollux and Castor's necks with both hands like lightning.
The two snorted, closed their eyes, and passed out.
Leonidas picked up the two men and threw them to the guards.
"Bring them both back to Sparta safely."
"General..."
"roll!"
The four soldiers of Leonidas picked up the Gemini brothers and walked away quickly.
Leonidas turned and stood by Mitiadeh's side.
The light of the setting sun fell on his red horizontal mane crown, which was extraordinarily vivid.
"In Sparta, the helmets of ordinary soldiers have red vertical manes, but the tops of the heads of mid- and high-ranking generals must have horizontal manes, because only with red manes on top of their heads can the soldiers behind them see the leader clearly and survive the chaos. Know the direction and target during the battle. However, this also leads to the fact that every Spartan wearing a horizontal mane will be attacked by the enemy most intensively."
"So, the world calls it the dumbest helmet ever."
Everyone listened quietly.
"We knew this from the moment we put on the horizontal mane crown, but no one has ever replaced it. Because we know that every Spartan soldier goes to the battlefield, not to save his life, not to avoid being attacked , but, for victory!"
"From the moment we put on the red horizontal mane crown, we understand that this helmet is the strongest force to promote our progress!"
"What doesn't kill us makes us stronger!"
"Nowadays,
It's time to witness Sparta! "
"Sparta!"
Leonidas roared.
"Sparta!"
The few Spartans next to them roared.
"Sparta!"
All the Spartans roared together.
Su ye remained silent. These muscular savages would really stay here.
"You can retreat," Medels said.
"Once the entire army retreats, what we will encounter will be the continuous pursuit of the Persian army. Therefore, someone needs to break up Thermopylae Pass. As long as the Persian army is held back, the navy will not dare to go deep alone, and more Greek soldiers will withdraw. ’ said Leonidas.
The generals were silent, indeed.
Leonidas turned around and looked at Su ye.
"You did your best in Puluoguan, you did your best in the mountain roads of Tempe Valley, and you also did your best in Wenquanguan. Now, as the eldest son of the demigod family, I take over the command of Wenquanguan. You, Suye , must leave immediately!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment before they realized that indeed, the demigod family had the privilege to take over the command at critical moments.
However, it hasn't happened in many years.
As long as the temple does not object, the demigod family will have the highest command.
Mitiayd silently watched the approaching Persian fleet in the distance.
Medels also looked into the distance.
Su ye stared at Leonidas.
"You are the hope of Greece, and you are different from others." Leonidas smiled brightly, her white teeth seemed to be shining, then reached out and patted Su ye's shoulder vigorously.
Su ye stared blankly at Leonidas.
Such a hero is indeed so dazzling at any time.
Su ye sighed softly, thought for a while, but in the end he didn't say what Wang Dahammer had sent him.
Wait a little longer.
In a tragic atmosphere, batch after batch of soldiers from Wenquanguan evacuated.
However, many city-states left warriors no less than the Spartans.
Athens, Tebai, Corinth, Arcadia, Mantinia, Sesby, etc. and Rochris left behind by all the members.
Su ye's heart was surging as he looked at the resolute and unfazed faces.
On the Blue Star, there was also such a battle at Thermopylae. More than 7,000 warriors from various city-states, plus more than 300 Spartan warriors, as well as the Spartan Hilos, fought against a Persian army dozens of times larger than their own. Previously, defending Thermopylae for many days won precious time for Greece.
Su ye walked to the other side of Hot Spring Pass, stood on the city wall behind and looked at the narrow road, while teams of Hot Spring Pass defenders retreated to the rear.
However, in the mainstream that is constantly moving backwards, there are always some people who suddenly turn around and go back against the current.
They couldn't hear the call of their comrades-in-arms, couldn't hear the roar of the general, so they returned silently and walked back to Hot Spring Pass silently.
The mainstream is advancing, but the countercurrent never stops.
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 circle to the rear.
The last ray of light in the sky fell.
The earth is shrouded in darkness.
The hot springs are brightly lit, but it seems like the darkest moment.
In the end, Su ye received the final data.
A full 20,000 people remained at Thermopylae, because many freedom fighters and some soldiers would not want to leave their comrades here.
It seems that there is some power that lights up everyone's heart.
The huge Persian fleet skimmed the sea on the side of Thermopylae, swimming like a huge sea dragon.
This sea dragon seemed to drive Night Breeze.
The night wind blows over Hot Spring Pass.
The cape on the back of the Spartan was raised, whistling with the flame of the torch.
In front of Thermopylae, the Persian army waited quietly.
Waiting for the moment of chaos at Thermopylae.
In the dark night, on the warships of the Persian fleet, pairs of shining eyes looked at Thermopylae Pass.
Like a pack of wolves.
"Why don't you go?" Leonidas stared at Su ye.
"I can't die anyway. If I can run, I will run. If I can't, I will surrender." Su ye wrote lightly.
"You shouldn't have stayed."
"It's really not possible. General Mithaid should take me away." Suye looked at Mithaid.
Mitiayd sighed, but said nothing.
Suye turned his head to look at Euclid, who had been too silent and serious these days, and said, "You must have mastered the long-distance teleportation method? As long as the opponent doesn't have a Sanctuary Destiny Warlock to take action, we will leave safely, right?"
"Theoretically yes, but I don't know why, I always feel like someone is staring at me." Euclid said.
"You think too much, with the three of us here, it's never your turn to keep an eye on you," Su ye said.
"That's right, although I'm actually better than the three of you." Euclid's words drew three pairs of blank stares from Mityad, Leonidas, and Su Ye.
Eventually, all the Persian fleet skimmed the side of Thermopylae.
Everyone sighed heavily.
The miracle is yet to come.
Su ye was still looking at the distant sea, the direction the Persian fleet came from.
"The Persian army has begun to land!"
After Mitiade finished speaking, the guards rushed to the back of Thermopylae Pass and looked into the distance.
I saw dozens of miles away, the flames were soaring into the sky, the Persian fleet was capturing the port, and the defenders on the port did not retreat a step, sticking to it.
However, the coalition headquarters has all been withdrawn.
The Persian fleet is like a pack of wolves covering the grassland, and the defenders of the port are like a small tribe.
Su ye turned around suddenly, left the back of Hot Spring Pass, and went to the city wall in front of 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 mixed with a large number of light infantry.
Su ye snorted coldly, and continued to let the lamp god guard the front, the ice and wind queens responded, and Di Aotian stood by his side.
On the front of Thermopylae, the Persians continued to attack, but to the Greeks, it was nothing but pieces of fly ashes that were about to be burned by the fire of hell.
Most of the generals' attention was on the rear of Thermopylae, the battle for the port.
Hot Spring Pass seems to be turned upside down by a steamer on a sultry summer night.
Suddenly, small cheers came from behind the Hot Spring Pass.
A great bad news spread throughout the city.
The Persians have captured the rear ports!
The army of Persian warships begins to land!
Hot springs are in danger.
The Greek army fled in panic, mourning everywhere.
The Persians in front of Thermopylae suddenly stopped attacking the city.
"Suye, obediently spit out what you gained in the battle before the battle!" Aldos, the warrior in the sanctuary, shouted.
Hastings, the legendary Persian general, was smiling.
Between Thermopylae Pass and the Persian army, the strange smell of barbecue has not dissipated, and everyone seems to have forgotten how tragic the battle in Hellfire was.
Everything before is not important anymore.
Next, the Persians who have just landed will outflank Thermopylae from the rear.
Hot Spring Pass is in chaos.
Even those generals, those generals who already had the heart to die, were in a mess!
Suye has been holding back, and has not said Wang Dahammer's sound transmission from afar.
"It's a pity that the general situation is gone." Komodes said with emotion.
Leonidas said helplessly: "The Athena is powerful, but the premise is that 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 Hunting God Strait, it is very likely that most of them were destroyed. The Greek warship, the isolated and helpless Athena, had to return."
"Even if the Misi sea battle is unparalleled, there is no way to recover."
"Next, give up complaining, give up fluke, and stick to it with all your strength!"
"If we can spare one more day for Greece, our final chance of winning will be one more point."
Suddenly, someone shouted on the city wall.
"Look!"
"what is that?"
"It's like a mountain floating on the sea!"
"Is that the second Persian fleet?"
"It's over, the hot spring is closed."
The Greek generals stared in horror at the Maris Bay in front of the right, which was the direction of the Hunting God Strait and the direction of the Persian Navy.
Between the pitch-black sea and the blue-black sky, a black shadow slowly approached.
The leading black shadow stands tall, dividing the sea water below and opening the starry sky above, as if a giant standing upright, stepping on the water.
What a powerful Persia!
It turned out that they were hiding such a powerful force!
What a terrifying power, it is simply an unprecedented sea monster.
