lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of the Mediterranean Overlord of Ancient Greece!

Those who were at the end of Samona's warriors were naturally overtaken and stabbed by the Dionian light armoured soldiers.

Seeing the Samnet’s army retreating across the board, the Dionian light infantry, who had been the second offensive line, also took the initiative to break away from the protection of the heavy infantry, spread their feet, ran forward, and quickly caught up In addition to the light armoured soldiers, at the same time, the pursuit net in the east was gradually enlarged.

Leading the troops to Polet, under the mountains to the west, when he heard the sound of an offensive bugle from the east, I felt anxious and gave a loud order: "Don't line up, give me all the way up the mountain immediately. Hurry over and surround the Samonais!"

After giving the order, Pollet remembered Zanteparis next to him, and then asked apologetically: "General Zanteparis, what's your opinion?"

The 60-year-old Zantiparis followed this non-stop mountain march. He is so tired that his legs are weak, and he is supported by two guards, panting next to him, and barely squeezing a smile: "Bo Lord Lot...I totally approve of...your decision!...But let's hurry...Don't lose to them!" He said, pointing his finger to the front.

A few hundred meters away, there is a black and red troop climbing up the mountain.

Pollett's face straightened immediately: "You are right, we can't lose to the Samonaes!"

He immediately ordered the buglers to continue to sound the offensive bugles, and asked his subordinates to urge the soldiers to speed up the climb over the mountains.

The Potentians are also a mountain race, and their ability to climb mountains is not weak. The soldiers drew out the Dionian daggers (this is after they received the Dionian military training, they got the military department Permission, purchased from Dionia's weapon merchant), of course, it is not used to kill the enemy at this moment, but to chop off the various branches and thorn bushes that block roads on the way up the mountain.

While the soldiers climbed the mountain quickly, Pollet was reminded by Zanteparis to extend the troops behind to the north, and try not to leave a large gap between the army and Abenirum. .

Although the two teams are climbing up like they are in a competition, it took more than 20 minutes to climb halfway up the mountain. At this time, they could already hear from the opposite side of the mountain. The sound of shouting and fighting, and it became clearer and clearer.

The soldiers immediately cheered up, they knew that the enemy was not far away from them.

Pollett also hurriedly asked the messenger to inform the soldiers to find a calm place or stop advancing as soon as possible, and level the ground in place, so that he could gain a firm foothold.

Not only the Potentians are doing this, but the Abenirum are also taking the same measures.

All the soldiers stopped advancing one after another on the mountainside, looking from a distance, it was as if a squiggly belt was inlaid on these rolling mountains.

Ten minutes later, the shouting became clearer, mixed with continuous exclamations, the sound of "crashing" branches and leaves...Although the lush woods blocked the view, the Lukanian soldiers knew, The enemy had already climbed over the ridge and was rushing towards them.

Although these mountains seem to be relatively gentle, the slopes are actually not small. As the saying goes, "It’s easier to go up and down," but for these mountain races, going down is much easier than going up. It didn’t take long. The Tentia soldiers saw the enemy.

Accordingly, fighting in the mountains, on the lower side, is inherently at a disadvantage, but don’t forget that Samona’s army is in a rout, so these rout soldiers running in the forefront turned out to be lying down and sliding down. Yes, they may slip and fall due to pushing and hustling each other during the rout. Perhaps they think that this method can run faster, but when they see enemies ahead, the blood stains and buttocks scratched by the branches of the weeds are all about to be destroyed. The shattered Samona warrior didn't even have the strength to stand up, and only screamed in horror: "There are enemies! There are enemies!..."

As a result, either he was stabbed to death by Potentia soldiers, or he was automatically captured.

The next step is the emergence of a large group of defeated soldiers. The Samona defeated soldiers who ran in front adopted the method of running straight down. In order to restrain inertia and prevent falls, they had to hug the trees from time to time, so Often the weapons in the hands cannot be preserved, either the shield is lost or the spear is thrown.

The last wave of defeated soldiers took the approach of running down sideways. Although the speed was slower, they were stable. They also became the main force of Shockwave Tentia's line of defense.

On the side of Abenirum, the soldiers felt mixed when they saw their compatriots fleeing from the top of the mountain in a panic, as did Gailny. But he knew that since the war between Samona and Dionia, the consecutive defeats, coupled with today’s failure, the final defeat of the entire Samona tribe alliance is inevitable, and Abeni Rum can only follow Dionia. Only after this war is over can he get a new life, so Gellney only hesitated for a while and gave the order to attack.

The heavy javelins thrown by the soldiers knocked down Samona's defeated soldiers one by one.

"Oh my god, it's from Abenirum!"

"You dare to collude with outsiders and kill your compatriots, and Savoni will punish you!"

"The Abenirum people, we all belong to the Shillpini tribe. For the sake of being a fellow tribe, please let us go!"

……

Routes, curses, and pleadings were heard from the mouth of the defeated soldiers. The expressions of the Abenirum fighters remained unchanged, and they did not stop waving their weapons. The Samona tribal alliance blocked Abenirum for more than ten years. And discrimination, which bears evil results today, the Abeni Rum people have a deep hatred with other Samonais, and it is not just a few words that can dissolve this gap.

Samonet’s defeated troops eventually fought with the Abenirum and Potentiians who intercepted them. In order to escape, they were inspired by their blood and bravery. They used the terrain to press the opponent’s line Have to back again and again.

However, Potentia-Abenirum’s line was not breached. After all, Polett summoned 12,000 soldiers this time, and Gailny also brought 3,000 soldiers. The total strength is the opponent. Twice and a half.

Not to mention the chaotic organization of the routs, the disorganized equipment, and the unevenness of the people. After a burst of onslaught failed to work, some routs retreated. After all, although they took advantage of the advantage of being good at climbing to chase Dionia The soldiers were left behind, but now they were intercepted by another group of enemies. Once Dionia pursued them and flanked them back and forth, they would have nowhere to escape, so some of the rout soldiers gave up breaking through from the front and turned instead. Fleeing from the north and south, trying to bypass the enemy's interception.

It didn't take long for the collective retreat of the Allied forces of Samona to completely flee...

The three armies of Dionia, Potentia, and Abeni Rum are pursuing at the same time......

In the end, more than 1,500 people were killed or injured by the Samoneite coalition forces, more than 3,000 people were captured, and more than 1,000 people fled, while the Dionian coalition forces killed less than 400 people.

In the joyous atmosphere of victory, Zanteparis, Pollet, and Gailny met Alexis who was still in the valley.

"Zantiparis, it's not too late for you to come." Alexis euphemistically expressed his dissatisfaction. You must know that after a long wait, he will not only be able to produce reinforcements. After suspicion, he even became afraid of whether he could bring the troops back to the camp smoothly.

"On the way here, we encountered some problems. It was indeed a little late, but it didn't affect our final victory--" Zantiparis slapped haha.

Gerney took the initiative and said apologetically: "The reason why we are late is mainly because of me..."

It turned out that after Abeni Rum fell to Dionia, the Ministry of Military Affairs originally approved Alexis’s offensive plan and pulled out the nail that hit the waist of Pucheti and Downey——Ah Queronia, connect the Abeni Rum, Kopsa, and Aquilonia regions into one, so that the entire southern region of Shirpini can be owned by Dionia, which reduces the kingdom. Defensive pressure on the northern border.

However, in the course of communicating with Gailny, the details of the Samona tribal alliance revealed by Gailny attracted the attention of the Ministry of Military Affairs. According to the information provided by Gailny and the three previous battles The number of Monet's coalition forces (including the previous battle with Cavutini), after detailed calculations by the staff, it is speculated that the number of Samnet's coalition forces may be more than the more than 10,000 Samnet's coalition forces that are besieging Naples. Soldiers, where are the thousands of Sammonite soldiers that might be added? Did the Samonais hide any conspiracy? ...The Secretary of the Army Hilos had to think seriously.

So, after he communicated with Alexis, a new offensive plan was formed: Alexis still led the troops from the east into the mountains and attacked Aquilonia. If the Samonas did If there is no reinforcement, they will directly capture Aquilonia; if the Samonais really hide thousands of fighters and are ready to lure the Dionian army into fighting in the mountains, then Dionian will also be ready to fight. .

This back player is Alnirum and Potentia.

For the joint attack on the Samona Mountains, Potentia Chieftain Pollet has a very positive response. He has already summoned 12,000 soldiers. As for Gailny, if it was before, he might still hesitate, but the Naconian leader Quinduk was booby-trapped, and the entire Naconia area was occupied by the Allied forces of Samona. The territory of Benirum, because the north of Abenirum is Beneventum under the rule of Leskuk, the west is partly adjacent to the territory of Naconia, and the south is bordered by the territory of Dionia (especially It is close to Kopsa), so the **** practice of the Samona tribe alliance to break the tradition made him a high degree of vigilance and fear, and it also made him determined to follow Dionia against the Samona tribe alliance.
