When Qin Rongshuai led the Great Qin Ruishi back from behind, the entire Persian infantry phalanx collapsed at once, unable to maintain the formation anymore, and began to flee for their lives.

At first, only a few people turned around and fled. Several officers cut down the deserters and shouted desperately: "Don't run, keep the formation!"

But in the next few breaths, the shouting officers were knocked down by the bows and arrows shot out from somewhere, and the Persian infantry phalanx, which was about to move, could no longer maintain it, and immediately herded the sheep, and everyone started to turn around escape.

In order to escape quickly, some Persians threw away their weapons, short spears, shields, bows and arrows, everything that could be thrown away, and some even took off their scales while running, just to be able to compare with those around them. Teammates run faster.

Some people began to swing their knives and slash at their companions who stood in front of them, just because they blocked their way.Some people were pushed down in the crowd, no feet stepped on him for a moment, and they could only stretch out their hands in vain to call for help, drowning in the crowd.

The Spartan soldiers chased and killed them all the way behind, and the cuts were soft, and even the daggers were curled. Some Spartan soldiers changed three daggers in a row.

Qin Rongshuai led twenty Qin Ruishi, deliberately intercepted the Persian deserters on the side of the cliff, and kept pushing towards the coast. Leonidas also saw Qin Rongshuai's intention, and led a group of Spartan soldiers to kill them. The Persian deserters joined Qin Rongshuai's men and drove the Persians to the sea together.

At this time, the Persian infantry was in a panic, and the only thought in everyone's mind was to run, and the farther the better, as for where to go, they had to run first, which caused a large group of people to run unconsciously.

Under the coercion of so many people, even a few sober ones can't change the direction, not to mention the sharp and bloody weapons on the other side.

The Persian infantry who were crowded to the coast were squeezed down by the crowd before they could see the situation in front of them clearly. More people just ran away and stepped on the ground, screaming and falling into the sea.

"No! Stop! Don't!" Someone kept shouting, but the raging crowd couldn't stop so easily, and a large number of people fell into the sea under the cliff.

Leonidas kicked the last Persian infantry down, raised the spear in his hand, and roared, "Sparta!"

"Sparta! Whoop!"

Everyone was excited, and the soldiers of the anti-Persian alliance began to boil, their morale was at an all-time high, and they felt that the Persians were nothing more than that.

After all, after taking the first blood, everyone's emotions will be excited.

[Congratulations Commander, you survived your first victory against Persia, Merit Points +10000, Glory Points +100]

[Do you want to spend 9000 meritorious points to upgrade? 】

Qin Rongshuai directly clicked OK, a warm current filled his whole body, and he was promoted to level 10.

[Congratulations to the commander for reaching level 10 and gaining the active skill—Eagle Eye]

[Eagle Eye Technique lv.1: active skill, special vision, greatly increases your eyesight, increases the range of vision, can capture more details, and can see through the weaknesses of the enemy's moves.It can create a reconnaissance eagle, visually communicated with the commander, with a patrol range of ten kilometers and a height of one kilometer. 】

Hawkeye?
Could it be the Eagle Vision from Berserker's Creed?
Qin Rongshuai was ecstatic when he saw this skill. Scouting is essential for marching operations. With this skill, he can observe the opponent's movement from a long distance.

And this is only the first level, if you upgrade a few more levels, maybe there will be more powerful effects.

"System, how much does it cost to upgrade Eagle Eye?" Qin Rongshuai asked hastily.

[Need to consume 10000 merit points]

Sorry to disturb you, and farewell.

Qin Rongshuai released the eagle eye technique, and an eagle soared into the sky, circled in the sky, and flew towards the Persian camp.Qin Rongshuai carefully inspected the Persian camp through the eagle eyes.

Looking from the sky, there were only vague figures in the camp, people were running around constantly, and a large number of soldiers began to gather. It seemed that Xerxes was not reconciled, and seemed to be dispatching troops.

Taking advantage of this time, he called up the Army of the Sun and let the Spartans go back to the second line of defense to rest, while he and Leonidas stayed and still commanded on the first line.

The Soldiers of the Sun Legion formed a dense formation under the command of the officers, and were tightly blocked in the narrow passage of Hot Spring Pass. Many soldiers were fighting for the first time, nervous and excited.

The veterans among them were much calmer and began to tell vulgar jokes to the people nearby to relieve themselves and the recruits' emotions.

After half an hour, the Persian horn sounded again, and a black crowd appeared on the distant horizon, and Persia made a comeback again.

The Persian expedition to Greece this time brought a large number of troops from the vassal states, and it was simply an exposition of soldiers of all nationalities here.In addition to the Persians and Medes wearing colorful gowns and scaly body armor, carrying short swords and spears.

There were also Assyrians who wore bronze helmets and carried linen shields and wooden clubs, and Parthians and Khwarazmians who used bows, arrows and axes as their main weapons.

There are Arabs in tight-waisted cloaks with longbows hanging from their right shoulders, Thracians in bright red cloaks with javelins and shields in their hands, and those with cow ears on their helmets, leather shields and short spears in their hands. Caucasian soldiers of various nationalities.

After the failure of the first battle, Xerxes drove soldiers of all ethnic groups into battle in turn, constantly attacking the Greek spear phalanx, trying to use the superiority of numbers to consume the Greeks.

It's a pity that all these soldiers were smashed in front of the spear phalanx. The narrow and rugged terrain of Hot Spring Pass could not be used for cavalry and chariots, so they could only use infantry to fight. .

One side was a rookie who had just entered the battle, and the other side was an actor who had no intention of fighting. The two sides fought for a day, and the fight became more and more perfunctory. In the end, it developed to the point where the two sides fought each other with weapons at a distance of 20 meters, and then the Persian side was exhausted and began to retreat. , Replace the second wave of personnel on top.

Not only Xerxes was furious, but Qin Rongshuai was also furious. He was at the forefront not only to stabilize the morale of the army, but also to gain experience.

At the beginning, the merit value rose rapidly, and it increased by more than 5000 in half a day. As a result, in the afternoon, the two sides began to fight in the air, and he didn't get any merit value.

So he picked up Qin Ruishi's strong crossbow and began to shoot and grab people's heads. Facing his unethical behavior, the opposite side scorned him fiercely, and protested by stopping the performance. From evening to dark, the Persian side continued They also refused to approach the line of defense at Hot Spring Pass.

This made Qin Rongshuai very depressed, and returned to the camp early to rest.

As a result, in the middle of the night, Qin Rongshuai was awakened suddenly. He felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart and lost all sleepiness. He picked up his weapon, took the Amazon female warrior and Qin Ruishi, and hurried to the front of the defense line.

Seeing Qin Rongshuai coming, the drowsy sentinel trembled with fright, and quickly stood up. Qin Rongshuai waved his hand at him, signaling him to keep quiet, and moved to the front by himself.

The seaside in the middle of the night was filled with heavy fog, I could not see my fingers, and the surroundings were completely silent.

Looking at the thick fog, the visibility is less than one meter. If you walk a little farther, you can't see the people around you clearly.

Qin Rongshuai's nerves were tense, and he slowly groped forward. While listening to the movement, he frantically used Hawkeye, staring hard ahead, trying to see through the thick fog.

Suddenly, a ferocious grimace appeared in the air in front of him, with a blue face and long fangs, it was very terrifying.

Qin Rongshuai was startled, and raised his hand to strike a knife, but unexpectedly, two gleaming short knives protruded from the mist to block his machete.

Then, several black-robed ghost-masked men rushed out from the darkness, wearing silver armor and waving two short knives.

It's Persia's ace troop - the Undead Army!
