Crush!

It was a completely one-sided crushing.

Already at a disadvantage, their mainstream tactics were being countered by targeted tactics. The Egyptian army's organized resistance lasted less than half an hour.

What followed was a complete massacre.

By the time the setting sun cast a blood-red glow, not a single Egyptian could remain standing on the battle line stretching for dozens of kilometers.

They may have already fallen down and become a corpse.

Or, he would kneel on the ground trembling, with his hands on his head, and act like a prisoner.

It was not until this moment that Xia Zhe, who had been observing from a distance, dared to approach the battlefield with great doubts.

When Xia Zhe saw the Egyptians' attire and weapons up close, he was stunned.

"How could this happen? Could the group of thieves we defeated that day be the Egyptian invading army?" Xia Zhe thought to himself.

Whether it was the enemy corpses lying on the ground or the enemy prisoners kneeling in large circles, their clothing and appearance were exactly the same as the thieves who had intended to rob their side that day.

Looking back at that time, it was as easy for his soldiers to fight against thieves as cutting melons and vegetables.

From this, Xia Zhe finally came to a conclusion and solved his own confusion.

"It seems that the Egyptians' combat effectiveness is extremely low! That's why a group of militiamen can win so easily! If I had known that the Egyptians were so weak, why would I be so nervous and always think about escaping!" Xia Zhe thought to himself.

Of course, in fact, although the Egyptian Legion was not very strong, it was also a well-trained regular army.

It was only because they were caught off guard and their tactics were directly targeted that they lost so quickly.

If they were given some breathing time, they could summarize their experiences and lessons in a timely manner.

If they fight again, the Trojan militia army will not win so easily!

After cleaning up the battlefield, we rested for a night.

The next morning, the Cretan militia continued their westward advance.

The first battle was won so quickly and thoroughly that it boosted everyone's confidence.

It's true that the enemy's main force is still there, but we haven't yet deployed our trump card! The king hasn't taken command yet!

Even if Ptolemy had three heads and six arms, could he be stronger than the invincible King Stroby?

Just one more battle!

The final battle!

The continent of Crete can be freed from the clutches of the Egyptians!

"What? My 500,000-man army was completely wiped out in half a day? That King Stobi even organized 7 million Cretan militias?"

Ptolemy's eyes widened when he heard the battle report from the front line sent back by the scouts.

So scary!

The legendary King Stoby is so terrifying!

Having suffered a loss at the hands of Antigonus once, Ptolemy never expected that he would suffer another defeat because of underestimating the enemy.

He really regrets it.

I regret not meeting the Achaean king a few days earlier.

"Hahaha. Am I right? King Stoby is absolutely a genius in war! Only if you and I work together can we have a chance to defeat and kill him!"

The visitor opposite chuckled and spoke. It was Agamemnon, King of Achaea.

The most stubborn and ambitious person in the Peloponnesian League!

Due to Eurybiades's delay, whether overt or covert, the joint fleet of Sparta and Achaea arrived at the mainland of Crete half a month later than the Stoic fleet.

Coming from the west, the place where the combined fleet docked was at the end of the continent further west, not too far from the city of Keldonia.

Soon after landing, Agamemnon became aware of the war between the Egyptians and the Cretan rebels.

As an ambitious man, Agamemnon liked to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers.

At first, he didn't help anyone, but let his army wait near the port, waiting for the Cretans to deplete the Egyptian army before stepping out to reap the fruits of victory.

However, after waiting for a few days, Agamemnon became a little impatient.

The fighting was so fierce on the continent of Crete, but King Stobi was not there. Where did he go?

In the final analysis, the Spartan and Achaean coalition forces came here to kill King Stobi!

It doesn’t matter much whether the Egyptians are harvested or not.

After all, Crete was a notoriously bad place, with few resources and unreliable people.

Even if the Peloponnesian League captured Crete, it would probably not improve its strength much, and might even be dragged down.

The best solution is to quickly find a force with a strong presence on the Crete continent to cooperate with and find the whereabouts of King Stobi.

So, Agamemnon thought again and again and ordered all the heavy infantry in the fleet to land and deploy. At once, a million troops were deployed.

Sparta and Achaia are both countries famous for their heavy infantry.

The display of these one million people was truly impressive.

Ptolemy, who was besieging Keldonia, immediately realized the strength of this foreign army.

When the Egyptian army first arrived in Crete, it numbered more than three million.

But with the war consumption and occupation of the troops, Ptolemy could only bring less than two million people to Keldonia.

In addition, 500,000 yuan had just been allocated to deal with the Stobi army.

Ptolemy assessed that if the remaining army went to war with the new forces in the west, it would be disastrous.

The situation is stronger than people.

In desperation, he had to take the initiative to extend an olive branch and invite this newly arrived powerful foreign force to come and communicate.

Agamemnon, who had already intended to cooperate with the Egyptians, did not hesitate and immediately brought his guards to Ptolemy's camp.

After talking for a while, the two sides got to know each other's background.

The Peloponnesian League was so famous that even Ptolemy, who was far away in Egypt, had heard of it.
