"A good idea, but I think the Persians don't have the courage to stay and attack us." Zantiparis said regretfully.

"Yes, the timid Persians are like rabbits." Timasong cursed, and the soldiers' casualties made him angry and helpless.

"Let me lead the soldiers around the mountains!" Xenophon took the initiative to fight.

Hironimus's face suddenly changed. He remembered the fact that Xenophon's reckless leadership of the army led to most of the soldiers being damaged.

"I think Xenophon can do it!" Davers immediately agreed.

"We have no time to delay, we must act immediately, otherwise we may have to spend the night in the mountains tonight!" Kriano looked up at the weather and said anxiously.

So Xenophon's request was passed quickly, and the leaders went back to rectify the troops.

Davers fell behind, thinking.

When Kerithops saw it, he couldn't help but stop and turned around and asked, "What is the Chief Davers thinking?"

Davers was surprised to see that Kerithops, who had always been taciturn, asked him a little, and said: "I'm thinking... well... Fortunately, the Persians did not build a defensive camp on the mountains, otherwise our losses would be great."

"You look at Tisavonis too high. Don't look at the Persian cavalry, the archers are moving quickly, in fact, their overall marching speed is much slower than ours. The Persian nobles led by Tisavonis are not as hard as we Greeks. They have to carry gorgeous tents, beautiful concubines, dancers, large numbers of slaves, etc. They have to wait for the sun to come out every day before they start to march, otherwise it will be too cold; they will stay away from the enemy camp at dusk because it is too dark. Under their influence, how can Persian soldiers not be affected by them? I guess these Persian soldiers who attacked us have just arrived not long ago." Kerithops analyzed seriously.

Davers knew that he originally thought that the mercenary troops were already bloated enough, but he did not expect that the Persians were even worse. He thought for a while and said, "If the Persians divided these light infantry into several teams and hid them in the rear of our army, flanks and fronts, and launched attacks in turn, would the effect be better?"

Kerithops frowned and asked, "You mean..."

"Just like before, the Persians on the mountains ahead launched an attack. When we drove them away and thought they were safe, the Persians launched an attack in the rear...and then... not only did this cause more losses to our army, but also forced us to run back and forth and disperse our troops. We would be very careful when we go forward, which greatly slowed down our army's marching speed."

Kerithops looked at him in surprise: "You usually think about these..."

It was rare for Davers to see such a obvious expression on Kelithops' face, and said embarrassedly: "Because I lack experience, I have to study more and think more..."

Kerithops returned to his serious and rigid face: "This is indeed a good idea, and it is not something that can be used by people, because to complete such tactics, the courage, training, and the ability of soldiers, do you think this Persian army can do it?"

Davers shook his head.

Kelithops looked at him deeply and said, "If you have any ideas in the future, let's discuss them together." After that, he strode away.

…………………………………

A Persian attack caused more than 1,000 mercenaries to suffer casualties, more than half of whom were non-combatants.

The number of casualties in the Davers military camp reached more than 150, and most of the pack animals were also shot and injured, so nearly half of the soldiers had to go to the baggage battalion to help, transport supplies, and help the wounded.

The entire mercenary army was affected by this and its actions were slower than before, but the avant-garde army was progressing smoothly. Because Xenophon led his troops to circulate the mountains quickly, the Persians were very concerned and were afraid of being attacked from the front and back, so they did not dare to stop them in front. The mercenaries passed through this mountainous area smoothly.

At dusk, the soldiers discovered the Persian villages ahead, and what happened next was the same as before. Mercenaries robbed these villages and stationed them. Fortunately, they also discovered the large amount of supplies collected by these villages to provide to the army of Tissaffony. After the soldiers enjoyed the abundant food, their morale was improved. Davers' medical camp became busy again until late at night...

…………………………………

After the passion, Cristoya leaned softly on Davers. Davers's hands were stroking her smooth and elastic skin, and the two were still immersed in the previous fierce battle...

After a long time, Davers said: "Helps said you learned very quickly in the medical camp and did a good job in helping him manage the wounded soldiers and female slaves. Those wounded soldiers listened to you very much, and gave you a nickname of 'Persephone on the earth'."

"Yeah." Christoya snorted lightly, raised her head slightly, and smiled sly: "Then won't I become your mistress!"

Davers' eyes flashed over her delicate smile, her slender goose neck, and her lining was half-hidden and half-exposed snow-white. Suddenly, the desire in her heart arose again, and she couldn't help but pressed her under her body again, breathing rapidly, saying, "I just like to have a mistress..."

Cristoya laughed in surprise and said, "You are blasphemy."

"I'm not afraid!" Davers pressed her tightly...

Cristoya trembled all over and hugged Davers' arms with both hands.

………………………………

"Davers."

"Um."

"Do you know why those wounded soldiers listen to me?"

"I don't know." In fact, Davers knew it.

"I asked Hilos to tell them, 'I am your woman!', you have a high prestige among the mercenaries now, and they will be scruples. I asked Helps to give a wounded soldier who attempted to invade me for the final treatment. His whining did not stop until the night. I think this also gives them a good warning!...Davers...Do you think I..." Cristoya leaned on Davers powerlessly, murmured.

"You did a great job, better than I thought!" Davers said, sniffing her black hair, "Shilos can't stay in the medical camp all the time. Helps is focusing on improving medical skills. I want you to manage the medical camp."

"What did you say?! Let me manage the medical camp?!!" Cristoya's surprised eyes were mixed with a few surprises.

"Didn't you say before that your father is busy with the political affairs of Milidu, and you have been assisting him in managing the slaves of the farm. These days, his performance in the medical camp also shows that you are fully capable of managing this small team." Davers was used to the tradition of equality between men and women in his previous life, and would not tie women to their homes like the Greeks of this era. He didn't mind women showing up in public, and even performed better than him: "Of course, Helps is also a nominal medical officer. After all, he has to consider the opinions of others, but in fact you are in charge of the management. I will tell Herps."

"Davs!" Cristoya hugged him tightly and said excitedly: "It's so nice that I'll follow you!"

"Don't be excited, you still have a task. Try to let the doctors from other military camps who came to the medical camp to help and stay voluntarily, as well as the wounded soldiers." Davers said lightly on her back.

"Yes, leader!" Cristoya was naked and smiled and saluted. The indescribable temptation of sexy. If Davers had not been exhausted, he would have done it again.

Seeing Davers' eyes appearing like he was about to spit out fire, Cristoya hurriedly put on Heaton lazily: "Davers, I can understand that you want to expand the medical camp, because the medical camp is indeed insufficient now. But why should we persuade those wounded soldiers to stay?"

Of course, Davers cannot say: He feels strong insecurity when he comes to this strange world, so the more soldiers in command, the more he can dispel the uneasiness in his heart. Facing Cristoya's curious gaze, he revealed a hint of intention: "There is still a long way to go home, I don't know how many difficulties there will be. It is better to lead the soldiers by others, so it is safer and more able to exert their abilities!"
