Now, Tisafonis is in a dilemma. For this attack, he also specially prepared a lot of big shields, but the light infantry he led occupies a large proportion in the team, and even half of it cannot be protected. Too many soldiers led to an over-dense formation. Almost every flying stone and every arrow of the mercenary could achieve a killing effect. The soldiers could barely maintain their morale under his high pressure, but the cavalry horse was injured, yelled and jumped, and ran around. Instead, he injured some soldiers and disrupted the formation. By now, most of the cavalry has retreated to the rear.
Tissafunis looks at the sparse formation and groans on his side, and then looks at the Greek shield wall on the opposite side is not as tight as it was at the beginning. No matter how tightly protected the Greek heavy infantry is, it cannot be completely avoided. The bow and arrow kill at close range. Do you want to continue? He hesitated: He paid the price, but didn't get the obvious result. The dingy retreat not only affected morale, but also attracted dissatisfaction and contempt from other generals. If you can continue the arrow warfare, the casualties will increase. Before the Greeks collapse, I am afraid that our troops will have to mess up first...
At this moment, the messenger came: "My lord Governor, Lord Sitiers said he had too many casualties, and he proposed to attack immediately? Or retreat?"
Tisafonis took a deep breath and answered without hesitation: "Retreat!"
…………………………………
The hard-supporting Greek soldiers saw the Persians receding like a tide, and couldn't believe their eyes. After waiting for a while, the Persians did not show up again, so they started cheering...
In this battle, the Polish army suffered more than 4,000 casualties, and the mercenaries also suffered more than 900 casualties. However, the majority were injured, and most of them were hand, foot and arrow wounds.
After experiencing this battle, the soldiers were exhausted physically and mentally. After cleaning the battlefield in a hurry, the troops walked north for a while, and before noon, they began to camp and rest...
In the big tent, Daves had an emergency meeting with the team officers to discuss how to treat the wounded. Because of this war, Daves’ troops suffered 19 casualties and 185 wounded, which completely exceeded the capacity of the medical camp. The entire camp must be mobilized for treatment.
Amintas disagrees with this, and said: "There is no need to cause such trouble. We came out to fight, and we have already had the consciousness of death! Isn't it just an arrow wound? Just deal with it just a few times. We used to That’s how I came here."
Daves looked around and felt that more than Amintas had such thoughts, so he said earnestly: "Everyone, we are far from our family, far from home, and go out to fight. Are we only united in battle? Actually! Above, we treat our companions as our relatives, and the barracks is our home. Can we watch our comrades get hurt and struggling without being indifferent! If so, when we get hurt, who is willing to help us! Everyone—"Dai Firth said categorically: "Remember, the past was before! Now, as long as it is the barracks where Davers is located, we must establish a belief that we will never let an enemy go, and we will never Give up a comrade-in-arms, we live and die together!"
"Well said!!" Felicius couldn't help but praised loudly. The other team officials also applauded warmly.
Daves' words touched them, so the whole camp immediately took action.
First, open up a large area in the center of the camp as the location of the medical camp. Daves divides the injured into three categories: minor injuries, slander injuries, and serious injuries. The soldiers were divided into four groups: the hard-working and responsible for the sanitation of the medical camp, cleaning up blood and dirt at any time, and driving away flies, mosquitoes, and flying insects; strong physically responsible for transporting and supporting the wounded; ingenious assistance Doctors and nurses draw arrows, debride, and bandage; the other group, who has worked as a carpenter in their hometown, is responsible for cutting branches and making stretchers. The seriously injured were sent directly to Helps, because only he could handle it. After minor injuries, most minor injuries can be returned to the company after removal, debridement, and bandaging. The other wounded will stay in the medical camp for observation. Depending on their situation, consider whether to suture and further treatment.
Under the command of Davers, the entire rescue operation was carried out in an orderly manner and extremely efficient. By the afternoon, all the wounded in Camp Daves were treated.
At this moment, what Daves said in the big tent was pushed into the ears of the soldiers under the impetus of Antonios and other caring people. Daves initially relied on the name of "The Favored of Gods". It was the instinct of the soldiers to ask the gods for help when they were hesitating. Later, Daves killed Mitradat first and Altauzu twice. Si, with his courage and record, he gradually won the soldiers' recognition of his commanding ability; and this time, his touching words and practical actions finally conquered the hearts of the entire camp. Everyone gave him another nickname, "The Merciful", and even began to call the young leader "Our Daves" affectionately.
This large-scale rescue operation also alarmed other military camps. First, a single soldier came here to support the wounded, asking for help. Daves agreed. But soon, the news spread, more and more wounded people came, and the manpower in the medical camp was obviously insufficient. To help them would squeeze the resources of their own camp. The soldiers in the Daves camp were a bit dissatisfied and began to contact the outsiders. People quarrel.
At this time, Criano and Timathon rushed to get the news. After quickly visiting the medical camp, they faced Daves. The two leaders (including Timathon who had always been at odds with Daves There is a little more respect on the face, because they also think that such a distinctive and efficient clinic is obviously not something ordinary people can make. Before, they sneered at the rumors that Daves was a "favorite".
Davos agreed without hesitation to treat their wounded soldiers, but because there were too many wounded soldiers (as two guards, they suffered the most, with more than 500 wounded), they needed to send manpower to help. At the same time, they needed more materials, such as linens, crock pots, wood, tents, etc., and even agreed that they would send doctors over to study and help. Davers is so generous, of course selfish. He confidently believes that the medical knowledge he has learned in his previous life is enough to attract doctors to stay and expand his medical care camp.
Criano and Tima Song left gratefully. After that, the other leaders also rushed forward, and Dafus made the same promise and the same request to them.
On the way back, when the lieutenant of Grithorpes even claimed to praise Davers's ability and generosity, Grithorpes was silently thinking about something.
This makes the adjutant very strange. Keli Thorpestein said bluntly: "I admit that I was biased against him before. Daves is indeed an excellent talent! Especially the...medical...medical camp he founded is very helpful to the battle. Sparta needs This in order to deal with the coming war."
"War? What kind of war?!" the adjutant asked in surprise.
"The Persian war against Sparta." Krisops looked solemnly: "The little Cyrus who was friendly with us is dead. We are involved in a rebellion against the new king of Persia, the man in power in Asia Minor. Now it’s replaced by Tisafonis, who is in conflict with Sparta. You have to know that the agreement we signed with Persia has objections to Asia Minor. The new king of Persia is likely to attack this...All signs are not good for us. ."
The adjutant was silent after listening. The war between Sparta and Athens lasted for more than two decades. In the end Sparta won, but the losses were equally huge. Now facing Persia, which is stronger than Athens, even if he is a brave and fearless Spartan, he still feels great pressure.
Kerry Thorpes glanced at him and changed the subject: "Do you think Davers will join us?"
"Of course we will! We are Sparta-the overlord of Greece!" the adjutant said proudly.
"I hope so." Kerry Thorpes nodded.
