Chapter 28 Convergence

It was an army of nearly a thousand people. Unlike the Persian minions who had fought before, just one stop, the aura of Xiaosha quickly spread out from them. Moreover, this momentum was not only emitted from officer-level people, but even ordinary soldiers also had the illusion of being intimidating.

It can even be said that this army is several times more elite than the Black Armored Army that Yun Qi and the others have met.

The real tiger and wolf momentum!

After seeing this army, all mercenaries made combat equipment, and all the weapons entered a state of combat readiness.

The other party also discovered the mercenary and immediately issued an order. The soldiers wearing bronze armor set up defense lines on the spot as soon as possible, lifting thick and heavy brass shields and pressing them in front of them, with fine iron spears erected.

This is a typical spear phalanx!

Seeing that the battle was about to begin, Yun Qi waved his hand to stop a mercenary from casting spells!

"Wait, they are not like Persians."

Yun Qi's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

This is a group of elite soldiers wearing brass helmets and covered with refined and heavy armor. From the exposed parts of their armor, they can see their kinky muscles and bronze skin radiating a healthy halo in the setting sun.

After carefully observing the opponent's equipment, the same idea emerged in the mind of the Reincarnation: Could it be that the heavy armored infantry in front of him is the legendary Spartan 300 warriors?

Sure enough, a middle-aged man over 40 came out of the opponent's camp.

Unlike other soldiers' brass heavy armor, this middle-aged man was wearing a bright golden heavy armor, and his every move naturally exuded a momentum without anger.

He was tall, slightly taller than Ivan, his hair was a little gray, but he maintained a body shape that even the bodybuilder envied. His thick beard added a bit of majesty to his tough face.

"Tell me, who are you!" The middle-aged man's eagle-like eyes quickly glanced at the mercenaries one by one, and his sharp eyes even the reincarnation people who had been through many battles felt a little eye-catching.

The mercenaries looked at each other in a glance. After they entered this world, the Lord God did not arrange any legitimate nations and kingdoms for them. When asked at this moment, they didn't know how to answer.

Yun Qi said anxiously: "We are the mercenaries invited by General Dassos, from the second son's regiment."

The so-called second son group was the product of ancient European nobles under the rules of the inheritance of the eldest son.

As second generations of the nobles without inheritance, the only way they can be brilliant and prosperous is to join the second son alliance, as mercenaries, be entrusted by the state and lords, participate in the battle between countries and gain wealth.

If you have enough wealth, you can obtain the right to purchase land from the king or lord you serve. Of course, you can also choose to return to the family and continue to work for the family heirs.

Hearing that the other party was from Dassus, the middle-aged man put down his raised thick arms.

The soldiers behind him immediately put away their spears and placed the brass heavy shield behind him.

After self-introduction, the identity of the middle-aged man was indeed Leonida, King of Sparta! And his 300 warriors.

It is also worth mentioning that the rebellious Spartan king led the reinforcements not as much as 300, but 1,200.

As for the 900 additional people, they were Spartan light serf soldiers, referred to as the slave army.

This is beyond the expectations of the reincarnationists.

There is no description of the 900 serf soldiers in the movie. Of course, this is probably because of the details that Hollywood cut off to highlight the Spartan Warriors and save production funds.

You should know that the arrogant Persian king Xerxes had a large number of servants. As one of the most powerful city-states in Greece, Sparta, naturally had slaves several times that of the Spartan nation.

The war is imminent, and slave soldiers are the best cannon fodder.

After listening to Yun Qi's explanation, King Leonida tilted his head and carefully looked at the only seventeen people in front of him.

He pointed out his doubts directly: "Why are you, as mercenaries, here? I remember that the place that Dassus agreed with me was at the Guanzhong Gate of Hot Springs, not here."

He is worthy of being a Spartan king who combines wisdom, commander and combat power, and he saw the "problem" to the point.

Yun Qi smiled gently. He had already had a curse, so a half-fair story was told from him.

"So that's it. You can't stand the Persians slaughtering the small villages in Sparta's border areas and retaliate against the Persian barracks. The first time they lost three people, and now they have repelled 500 Persian troops this time?"

The Spartan king was still half-believing and half-doubting about this seemingly ridiculous story.

In fact, no one can easily believe that a squadron with only 17 people can defeat 500 Persian troops, and there are nearly half of these 500 people.

It was not until Yun Qi took them to the scene and saw the bodies everywhere that the Spartans were convinced of Yun Qi's words.

A few hours later, the mercenaries and Spartan troops arrived at Hot Spring Pass.

The defenders discovered this aggressive army a few miles away and immediately reported to Dassus.

General Dassus, dressed in military uniform, came out in person, but the smile on his face suddenly changed when he saw the army brought by his old friend.

"Dassus, it's amazing to see you!" King Sparta greeted.

"There are many surprising things today, His Highness Leonida." Dassus said politely with a bitter face and forced a smile.

The others were not blind, and they could see at a glance the number of troops led by the Spartan king. Each of them had complicated expressions: disappointment, anger, self-moaning, and confusion.

A soldier who looked like an adjutant of Dassos interrupted impolitely: "We were cheated, why are there only more than a thousand people? This is indeed surprising."

Dassus rebuked, "Shut up, this is not their army. We heard that Sparta is preparing to fight and eagerly hope to join your coalition."

Reprimand at any time, but Dassus obviously questioned more.

The King of Sparta is proud of his courage and auspiciousness: "If you want a bloody battle, you are welcome to join."

Finally, Dassus could no longer help: "But you only bring these few soldiers to resist Xerxes' army. I think I miscalculated you, and thought it was at least equivalent to ours."

"Isn't it?" King Leonida pointed at the adjutant who had just interrupted: "You."

The adjutant faced the king's sharp gaze as sharp as a sword, and his body couldn't help but be upright.

I heard Leonida ask, “What do you do?”

The deputy said, "I am a blacksmith, Your Highness."

Leonida pointed at another person: "Where are you? Acadia, what do you do?"

The strong man stood up respectfully and replied: "I am a sculptor."

Then, King Leonida pointed at a few soldiers from the Greek Union, and the others were confused when they heard it. I wonder where the famous Spartan king was intended. To be continued.
