in 48 BC, after the death of Darius I, king of Persia, his son Xue Xisi ascended the throne. In order to realize his father's last wish, Xue Xisi vowed to crush Athens and conquer Greece. To this end, he carefully prepared for four years and mobilized the military power of the entire Persian Empire. The soldiers who participated in the expedition came from 46 countries and more than 1 nationalities who surrendered to Persia. There are Persians and Medes who wear colorful long gowns and scaly armor and carry short swords and spears; Assyrians with bronze helmets and linen shields and sticks; Parthians and prickly mannequins with bows and axes as their main weapons; There are Indians wearing robes; There are Arabs who wear tight-waisted cloaks and long bows on their right shoulders; There are Ethiopians who wear leopard skin or lion skin and wear red and white bodies. Their weapons are bows made of palm trees, arrows made of flint and antelope fox skins. Thracians wearing bright red cloaks and holding javelins and shields; There are also soldiers of all ethnic groups in the Caucasus who decorate their helmets with ox ears and hold leather shields and short spears. The personnel of the Persian army are so numerous and varied, and the weapons and equipment are so varied, which makes this army very much like a big exhibition of armies and armaments of all ethnic groups (which has already been shown in the film).
in the spring of 48 BC, all the Persian armies gathered in little Asaldis, claiming to be 5 million, but in fact there were about 5, people, who were divided into sea and land and headed for Greece. In the face of menacing enemies, the Greek city-states that have always liked internal struggles have organized unprecedented joint actions. More than 3 city-states formed an anti-Persian alliance, and the president of the alliance was Leonidas, king of Sparta. After crossing the Hellers Strait, the Persian army quickly swept through northern Greece and came to the pass of Demobile in July and August. This pass is the "gateway" of China and Greece, which is surrounded by mountains and seas. There are two sulfur hot springs in front of the pass, so it is also called "hot spring pass". The pass is extremely narrow, only one chariot can pass, and it is the only passage from northern Greece to the south. At this time, the Greeks are holding the Olympic Games, but in Greece, the Olympics are above everything else, and it is forbidden to fight during the Games.
therefore, the Greeks deployed only a few thousand troops at the gate. When the Persians approached, Spartan King Leonidas brought only 3 reinforcements. According to the dangerous terrain of Wenquanguan, the narrow mountain road, the troops can't take action, and the cavalry and cars are useless, Xue Xisi adopted the storming tactics of sending heavy infantry to take turns to attack, in an attempt to take advantage of the number to defeat the Spartans. The Spartans, however, took advantage of the geographical advantages of the hot spring pass "and while one man guards it, ten thousand cannot force it" and stood commanding, fiercely stabbing the enemy with Persian knives with sharp spears. Just as Xue Xisi was at his wit's end, a local farmer named Ebiatis came to report that there was a path leading to the back of the pass. Hearing this, Xue Xisi was overjoyed and immediately ordered the Greek traitor to lead the body-guard into the back hill along the path where thorns were born.
Originally, Leonidas had already arranged more than 1, defenders from the city-state of Forsyth on the mountain beside the road. When there was no war, they relaxed their vigilance until the Persians came to them, and when they met the Foxes, they lost. The Persians didn't chase after them, so they went straight behind the hot spring pass. When Leonidas, king of Sparta, learned that the Persian army had detoured behind him, he knew that the tide was gone. In order to save his strength, he transferred the troops of other city-states that had no fighting spirit to the rear, leaving only 3 soldiers he brought to fight. Because according to Spartan tradition, soldiers can never give up their positions. For Xue Xisi, a bloody battle in hot springs, which cost 2, Persian soldiers their lives, was like a nightmare.
Lu Xun's first published literary work was the Soul of Sparta, which praised 3 warriors. He believed that the Spartan warriors' unyielding fighting spirit and lofty aspirations were what China people needed most. Spartans' martial patriotism is touching and mysterious. This great love for the motherland and the sacred spirit of dedication to the motherland is the soul of Sparta that touched the world, and it is this great soul that Lu Xun encouraged.
The Soul of Sparta describes the heroic scene of the King of Sparta leading 3 Spartan warriors and 7, Greek allies to a decisive battle with a million-strong army led by the King of Persia in the hot spring pass. In the situation that the Spartans are outnumbered, they are fearless, regard death as death, smile at the enemy, and show their determination to ignore it. The Spartan king Leonidas was determined to die for his country if the king did not die, and fought bloody battles with all the soldiers. After the start of the war, the dust was collected all over the sky, and Xiao Sen was murderous. The Persian army launched an attack with the trend of the tide, while the Spartan army guarded the danger and bravely killed the enemy. The king of Sparta took the lead, rode his horse and exposed his blade, and fought with the enemy in the sound of golden drums. Suddenly, the shouting hit, the blood flowed back, such as the sound of the tide and the droplets, and abandoned the smoke and sprayed it on the desert. Persian army, countless died in the blade, countless fell into the sea, countless ravaged by backup, lying dead everywhere. However, in the end, the Spartan army was outnumbered, and the blade was broken. The king died and the whole army was wiped out. The soul of Sparta resounded through the ages and went down in history forever, making the gods cry. Lu Xun praised this loudly, towering over the gorge of the hot spring gate. If the earth does not die, the soul of the Spartan warrior will remain.
in 479 BC, 1, Greek allied forces bravely pursued and fought a decisive battle with 3, enemy troops in Asia Minor. The Greek allied army, led by King Pausanias of Sparta, attacked the Persian garrison, and the last decisive battle of this war, the Battle of Platia, broke out. The king of Sparta is elected, and there are always two kings tied at the same time. This campaign has exposed the advantages and disadvantages of the opposing sides very intensively. At the beginning of the campaign, there was a long confrontation between the two sides, and several small-scale encounters and outpost wars broke out. At first, Persian cavalry attacked the Greek infantry in rugged terrain unsuitable for cavalry operations, resulting in heavy losses. Then the commander-in-chief of the Persian army learned a lesson and used the characteristics of cavalry mobility to constantly harass the Greek army's rations supply. On the other hand, in the encounter with the Greek army, we should try not to confront the Greek phalanx head-on, but use the advantages of our own joint arms to kill the Greek army with the long-range firepower advantages of archers and trebuchets. As a result of the stalemate between the two armies, the Greek side did not take any advantage, and there was a problem with the supply, so it had to prepare to retreat. Pusanias's retreat plan was originally an army array, and then he retreated part by part under the cover of darkness at night. However, there was a delay in the implementation of the plan. When the central front retreated, the right wing retreated by half, and the left wing did not move, it was dawn, and the action was discovered by the Persian army, which turned into a life-and-death war. At the beginning of the war, the situation of the Greek side was very critical. Not only was it forced to face it in a maneuver, but the Persian commander Madoni Uss took the right tactics and gave the Greek army heavy casualties with intensive long-range firepower. But soon, Madoni Uus made a tactical mistake: he ordered the main infantry to gather behind the first-line archers and cavalry, for the purpose that I guess it might be to prepare for a decisive blow to the Greek army, or to prepare for a chase.
However, as a result, a large number of Persian troops gathered together, and the front-line troops lost their room to retreat and remain flexible. King Pusanias of Sparta seized the fighter plane, assembled the Greek armored infantry phalanx, and violently rushed up to the Persian army. Because as long as it is close, the Persian army has no room for maneuvering to keep its distance, and the projectionist and cavalry will not play a role. In melee and melee, Persian soldiers are brave, but their skills in using weapons (that is, martial arts) are not as well trained as those of Greek soldiers, and their personal protection is not as good as those of Greek soldiers (no hand shields). Even so, with the number advantage of the Persian army, they could still drown the Greek army, but at this time, the Persian commander Madoni uz himself was killed in the chaos. Because the Persian army is a rabble of all ethnic groups, not Qi Xin, when the core of the command dies, the whole army immediately falls apart. After this battle, the Greeks basically wiped out the Persian invaders in the Greek peninsula.
