Chapter 21

"With me here, you don't have a chance."

Ye Ling pointed a gun at Leonidas' forehead. Judging from his reaction, he should be a veteran?

"Bang!"

Ye Ling suddenly shot the ground under his feet, and the smell of gunpowder spread in the air in a wisp. A small pit appeared next to Leonidas's left foot, with a black bullet hole left in the pit.

"You should die on the battlefield, not here."

Ye Ling issued a final warning, dispelling all the luck of this time traveler and taking his people unwilling to leave.

? "Okay, you can say it now?"

Ye Ling returned to the Persian camp with Xerxes' golden throne and was taken into the royal tent.

Although he was extremely angry at Leonidas' assassination and trembled all over, Xerxes still showed the mind of a king and allowed him to leave.

Of course, this is also related to the consequences of killing Leonidas now. The entire Spartan city-state will remain unrest with Persia, which is definitely not something he is willing to see.

After staying in the tent for more than half an hour, when Ye Ling came out, his equipment had completely changed.

He was wearing a black robe that wrapped his skin all over his body and his chest was covered with silver armor that was more decorative than practical. Except for the silver mask on his face, he was almost exactly the same as the soldiers of Xerxes's Guards, the Immortal Corps.

It is obvious that Ye Ling and the king of the Persian Empire reached some kind of agreement. How to avoid saying anything? Ye Ling used his knees to exchange for half of his guards.

The Persian Immorta 1s is an elite Persian Immorta guard, composed of the most brave and warriors in Persia. The full staff is 10,000 people, one person with one person and one person, so it is called immortal.

While the night was still there, Ye Ling ordered all the five thousand undead people he belonged to boarded and followed him to the mountain trail.

Although Leonidas had a very bad premonition to know that Ye Ling, the mysterious other, appeared for the time traveler, when the flames ignited behind him came into his eyes, it still made him feel despair.

That's right, Ye Ling did not use the simplest and most direct way to attack the mountain, but instead ordered these undead people to set fire to the mountains everywhere and completely ignite the mountain road!

For the generals, it is best to attack the heart. After reading so many cool articles about history, Ye Ling has also learned some military theory. If he wants to seize this path, according to the terrain, he can only adopt the most taboo tactics of military strategists, gradually invest in troops and use human lives to fill in it.

It was not that Ye Ling felt sorry for the lives of these undead people, but that he adopted such a tactic and not necessarily effective against 700 Spartan warriors, so he came up with such a sinister trick to set fire to the mountain.

When a mountain caught fire on one side, the seven hundred people would either be burned to death or retreated if they were caught. There was no third way.

As for firefighting, even in modern times thousands of years later, there is no way to deal with forest fires, and it is impossible.

Of course, in order not to delay the fire, Ye Ling also asked someone to cut off some trees in the arson range to prevent them from spreading into a real forest fire.

The fire lasted for a day and a night before it gradually faded. That night, the three hundred warriors who were guarding the Hot Spring Pass in Sparta also began to suffer casualties under the attack of Xerxes's other 5,000 undead legions.

The Greek soldiers who had been ambushing for a long time finally began to officially board the battlefield. From the front, they defeated the five thousand undead people of Xerxes and were wiped out. This army, known as the most terrifying army in Asia, never retreated and fought to the last one!

The angry Xerxes sent troops to attack the Hot Spring Pass again and again, but every time, he was defeated by the Greeks. Both sides suffered casualties, and no one could do anything to each other, forming a delicate balance.

However, the only thing that was anxious was the Greek side. After they joined the battle, the ambushing surprise weapon effect had disappeared. With dozens of times the difference in force and the unstable rear, everyone was filled with anxiety in their hearts or faces.

Xerxes's frontal attack never stopped. The successive failures had completely angered the king of the Persian Empire. He began to send people to attack without regard to the loss of troops. Even if he was tired, he would exhaust the people who were guarding the gate to death!

In just one day, another 20,000 people were added to the death list of Persian troops, and the Greek side also suffered losses, but relying on the geographical advantage, it was only one-tenth of that of the Persian troops.

The balance was completely broken with the news of being breached in the rear, and the Greek army completely lost the will to resist. In order to preserve its strength, the Athenian generals decided to retreat to avoid their edge. Even if Leonidas, who was a time traveler, could not stop him.

History seems to have returned to its original trajectory. Except for the 1,000 volunteer troops left behind, the remaining soldiers began to retreat to the Athenian city-state.

Ye Ling naturally would not stop him. He just surrounded the thousand volunteers from the rear of Wenquan Pass with more than 4,000 undead people who obeyed him.

On the bloody battlefield, corpses piled up like mountains. Not only did Ye Ling not get at all discomfort, he liked this taste very much.

Faced with the desperate situation of surround, these thousand volunteers burst out with terrifying combat power, and the mourning soldiers were bound to win. Even if only one Spartan was left in the end, no half of the surrender appeared. Xerxes was shocked and kept asking whether all Spartans were like this.

At this point, Ye Ling's mission was perfectly completed, and he was as consistent as possible with the historical trajectory. The time traveler also died in the chaos army and was shot through the heart by an arrow.

The task was completed, but Ye Ling was in a surprising mood. He was not happy to complete the task. Instead, he felt sad. Leonidas' last words still seemed to ring in his ears...

"Life for the battle, and only after death in the battle will be stopped!"

"They can kill our flesh and deprive our will, but they will never destroy the spirit of Sparta!"

"It is my honor to fight with you."

...

"well."

I have to say that Ye Ling was infected, which gave me a feeling that a good man should be like this, died in the battlefield and was wrapped in a corpse.

"Maybe this is your best destination, the heroic death of a man."

The melancholy in his heart reduced the pain of traveling through time and space. Even after returning to this silver lounge, Ye Ling was still savoring the last battle in his mind.

This is indeed a relatively simple and easy task. Putting aside the fact that saving Xerxes requires a little intuition and luck, there is nothing else to say. An ordinary person can still complete it as long as he overcomes his fear.

"The task settlement is completed!"

“Task completion: 100%.

"Plot restoration: 34%.

"Get 700 Time and Space Vouchers!"

“Extra Rewards Rewards Settlement Completed!”

"Get RMB 4,235. (can be converted into a universal currency in any time and space.)"

"Get 340 time and space coupons!"

More than 4,000 is the number of people left in the Undead Legion. Does the 340 time and space tickets correspond to the plot restoration degree?

Ye Ling thought this extra reward system was quite interesting, but it only happened once, and it was an accidental event and could not be concluded.

"I've collected enough so quickly. It seems that this super magic water is not too expensive."

Ye Ling hugged his arms in front of his chest, walked up to the wall unknowingly until the ceiling, hanging his body upside down like a bat before stopping.

"Ha, it's much more comfortable."

Ye Ling stretched and had been sleeping for a day in that time and space. He didn't feel anything before, but now, once he relaxed, a feeling of mental fatigue suddenly came.

...

"Instruction manual? And this thing?"

When he woke up, Ye Ling, who was so energetic, contacted "Fate" through his personal butler and exchanged for an enhanced version of Super Divine Water for injection.

The redemption system of "Fate" is very interesting. It has no classification and looks like a search engine for Du Niang. After entering the keywords you want to search through your mind, the corresponding thing will appear.

Of course, just like Du Niang, the more keywords and the more detailed the description, the more efficient it is to find things.
