Chapter 41 Bloody Battle

The Median soldiers in patterned robes, driven by officers holding scimitars, rushed towards the Spartan spear phalanx like a tsunami.

But in front of their eyes, there lay a mighty battle formation that was as unshakable as a majestic mountain, and as dangerous and bloodthirsty as a wild beast!
"150 steps!"

The archers behind the phalanx drew their bowstrings and tilted 45 degrees to the sky.

The Medes ran hard, getting closer and closer, and could see their faces very clearly.

"One hundred steps!"

"put!"

The dense bows and arrows were thrown out, like salt sprinkled in the sea, splashing a little bit of blood, and then disappeared.

"Fifty steps!"

The Spartan soldiers roared together, squatted down slightly, and kicked their right feet hard on the ground.

The densely packed Median infantry rushed up against the phalanx of spears like a tide. The Median infantry were crowded together, people were crowded together, and they were so tightly stuck together that they couldn't even swing their weapons. .

The people in the front were squeezed against the Spartan shield by the people in the back row, and the people in the back were pushed forward continuously by the people in the back, and the Spartan phalanx was pushed back slowly. with.

"Steady!" Leonidas yelled, pressing her shield hard, resisting the push from the opposite side.

He stood at the forefront of the phalanx, feeling the greatest pressure, and the war spear in his hand gave him great strength and stamina, allowing him to resist the pushing of hundreds of people with his own strength.

At this time, Qin Rongshuai also activated the halo of high morale and commander, holding the life scepter in one hand, and with a physical bonus of nearly [-] points, he could support Qin Ruishi's formation with one hand so that they would not retreat.

Qin Rongshuai also tried to use the golden apple's mind control ability to influence the Persian army before, but unfortunately, the golden apple's ability was completely useless in the face of a murderous army.

"Hold on!"

The speed of the Spartans' retreat gradually slowed down, and finally the entire phalanx stopped.

Leonidas roared, "Push!"

Before the Spartan soldiers exerted their strength, Qin Ruishi was the first to strike, and they slapped the shields in their hands forward!
"Sweep Liuhe!"

Qin Ruishi's spear pierced out like lightning, and the Median infantry in front of them was hit by the shield and before they stood still, a blood hole was stabbed out of their bodies, clutching their wounds with unbelievable pain. His eyes fell to the ground.

The entire row of enemies fell to the ground like cutting wheat. Before the soldiers in the second row realized what happened, Qin Ruishi's spear and iron halberd had pierced their bodies, which seemed solid. His scales were like paper paste, unable to resist Qin Ruishi's stabbing at all.

Then came the third row, the fourth row, the fifth row...

Within a few breaths, there was already a large space in front of Qin Ruishi, and the crowded pace of the Median infantry couldn't keep up with Qin Ruishi's killing speed.

The Leonidas and Spartan soldiers next to them were shocked. They did not expect that these soldiers from the East would be so powerful.

The Spartans were filled with fighting spirit. The soldiers in the first row used their shields to withstand the impact of the Median infantry, while the soldiers in the back row stabbed out from the gaps in the shields with spears, like hedgehogs. The flesh and blood of the Median infantry was stabbed.

Then retract, stab again, retract again, and so on.

This is the famous "Greek phalanx", a shield wall composed of broad shields and lances stacked between them.The small shields and short spears of less than two meters of the Medes could not compete with the three-meter-long spears of the Spartans. Groups of Median infantry fell in front of the long spears of the Spartans .

The Spartan spear phalanx began to advance slowly. The soldiers in the front row stepped over the wounded Median soldiers who had fallen to the ground, and the people in the back row used their spears to make up for these people.

The corpses of the Medes were piled up on the ground in a thick layer, and the bloody stumps and broken weapons were scattered all over the ground. The infantry behind began to hesitate, letting the officers shout and curse, no one was willing to go up forward.

"Reformation!" The Persian officers waved whips and scimitars, beating the soldiers non-stop, and drove them to rearrange their formation. These soldiers were frightened, and their movements began to slow down.

In desperation, this group of Median infantry was withdrawn and replaced with a group of well-equipped Persian infantry. Amidst the roar, another attack was launched against the spear phalanx.

These Persian infantry were obviously much more elite than the Median infantry just now. They pressed their pace and moved forward in a line. When they approached, these Persian infantry shouted together.

Their shouts were so loud that even the charge horns were drowned out.

Facing the ferocious Persian infantry, the Spartan soldiers and Qin Ruishi were not afraid, and calmly watched the grim-faced Persian infantry pounce on them.

Like a huge and turbulent wave beating against the rocks, the small rocks stood still, but the waves tore apart and splashed countless waves.

But when the Persian infantry phalanx charged up, what was splashed was waves of blood.

The spear was completely unstoppable to the short spear, the shield and the scale armor. After the spear pierced, the sharp tip of the spear hit the armor and made a dull sound.

Blood began to flow, and limbs were pierced by weapons.

The Spartan soldiers kept stabbing, poking hard at the opponent's body with the spear in their hands until a big hole was made, piercing the internal organs, until the opponent's blood drained dry.

The wounded Persian infantry rolled on the ground, screaming in pain, being trampled by others, by their own people, by the enemy, and then gradually fell silent.

The Spartan soldiers kept moving forward, waving their spears, and vigorously venting the fighting spirit ignited in their hearts. It seemed that this way they could vent their emotions and release them through the spears.

The dense formations of both sides were close to each other, and the densely packed spears almost collided with each other. They could no longer swing and could only simply thrust straight.Every time the Spartan soldiers were punctured, they would let out a cry in their throats.

Swinging stabs neatly, shouting neatly.

That shout with strong killing intent deeply frightened the enemy on the opposite side. The opponent who shouted was heartbroken, his hands and feet were so weak, and he could hardly hold the weapon in his hand.

Roaring, shouting, screaming, the sound of metal friction when weapons intersect, and the sound of spears piercing armor into flesh, echoed throughout the battlefield.

Qin Rongshuai followed Qin Ruishi and kept moving forward, using the healing technique to heal the injured Qin Ruishi non-stop. Qin Ruishi, who were originally like wolves like tigers, became even more ferocious, slaughtering their opponents almost regardless of life and death. .

It wasn't until the eyes suddenly became clear that Qin Rongshuai realized that their team had already smashed the formation of the Persians.

The surrounding Persian infantry looked at the blood-stained soldiers with horror, as if they were looking at the devil. All the Persian infantry retreated to both sides, refusing to contact Qin Ruishi.

Qin Rongshuai showed a ferocious smile, and shouted, "All officers and men obey orders!"

"The last general is here!" Qin Ruishi's body was once again ignited with killing intent.

"Follow me back!"

Qin Rongshuai waved the scepter of life, and charged behind the Persian infantry phalanx.
