Although Davers first entered the military, he also realized that this formation was mainly to prevent Persians from raids and protect their supplies. With such a wide frontal marching, the speed would definitely not be fast. Under the pressure of Persians, this was also a helpless move.

Several people gathered around to see the simple sketches on the ground.

Timasong pointed to the two blocks in front and said, "Kelitopus is a Spartan, and his soldiers are all Lasidimians. They have combat experience. They serve as the vanguard and set the way for the entire army. I think everyone will be relieved."

No one has any objection to this proposal.

"Second..." Tima Song was thinking about where his military camp should be responsible for.

"Secondly, I am the youngest and willing to be the rear of the entire army!" Davers said emotionally.

Phelisius was shocked and thought: It's over, Davers forgot what he had agreed on in advance and took the initiative to take the initiative to act as a defender. As expected, he is still young and inexperienced!

In front of everyone, Philicius did not dare to make big moves, so he kept winking at Davers.

But Tima Song said in surprise: "You...you want the palace back? No! No!" He shook his head repeatedly: "The guard is crucial. You must have rich experience in order to face various complex situations. If you don't handle it well, it will drag down the entire army. I think... let our military camp serve as the guard."

As soon as Timasong finished speaking, Davers continued: "Isn't there a defender? I'm willing to serve with you!"

"No!!" Timasong refused loudly without thinking: "Criano, come and go to the palace with me!" He directly appointed his comrades who fought side by side with him.

Kriano and Timason had a good relationship, so he had to nod.

The candidate for the defender was decided so quickly. Phelisius didn't understand at this moment that Davers had deliberately set up a trap and lured Timasong to take the bait, so he was not worthy of being an adjutant.

The ravines between Kerithops' eyebrows became deeper. He did not appreciate the tricks Davers played, but instead became more disgusted. But he knew that Timason's choice was right, so he simply said to Davers: "Your military camp is responsible for protecting the left wing." Since the mercenaries marched north along the Tigris River, the left wing was close to the river bank most of the time, and it should have encountered the least danger.

Davers saw the undisguised contempt in Krethops's eyes, and he clenched his fists in secret, nodded and agreed.

Then, Krithops proposed to let Zantiparis play the front forward with him.

Heronimus was also unwilling to accept that the original adjutant of the Proxinus military camp was Agarcia, and now the elected leader was replaced by the squadron leader Hironimus, but he was the last to arrive, which shows that there is a great controversy over who the soldiers in this military camp will be the leader. To be safe, they should still let their military camp take on the right wing.

After the leaders completed the military agreement, it was time to hold a full-army conference.

This is not only a public rally for the new leader to appear, but also a good opportunity to unify the soldiers' thoughts, so Keritopus reminds everyone to speak more words to boost morale.

When he asked the leaders, his eyes were more on Davers. He was worried about this too young leader. You must know that it was a gathering of tens of thousands of people. Most of them were so nervous that they couldn't even say anything in such a big scene. If Davers messed up, they would turn this carefully arranged oath-taking meeting into a farce!

So he suggested to Davers that he could ask his adjutant Philicius to speak on stage.

But Davers insisted on coming in person.

Kerithops looked very bad, but he had to let Davers attend because he was a new leader unanimously elected by Menon's military camp, with 1,400 soldiers under his command, accounting for about one-ninth of the total number of soldiers. So he arranged Davers to play in the second place. If Davers performs badly, there will be the leader behind him to make up for it.

……………………………………

It was the end of August, late summer, and the weather in the afternoon was no longer so hot.

A wooden platform was set up in the center of Timasong Army Camp (formerly Klierkus Army Camp), and the surrounding tents had been cleared, leaving a large open space full of soldiers from various mercenary camps. They either stood or sat, chatted and complained to each other...

The entire venue was crowded with loud noises...

Under the escort of fully armed soldiers, Kelithops and his group squeezed out a passage from the dense crowd and came under the wooden platform.

Kerithops came to power first.

The soldiers below the stage were in a stir.

Because of Kelithops' deliberate low-key before, most ordinary soldiers did not know who he was. They were surprised to see a stranger being the first to appear on stage and asked each other for his name.

There were more than a dozen loud soldiers standing around the wooden platform, who were responsible for relaying the speech of the speakers so that thousands of soldiers below could hear it.

Kerithops spoke, "Brothers from all over Greece, I am Kerithops, the inspector of Sparta!"

After the re-election of the soldiers on the wooden platform, the soldiers below were in an uproar. The shock in their hearts was even greater than when Davers heard the news: the Spartan soldiers over the past century have made the Greeks in other city-states surrender to their bravery and strength. Now, Sparta has become the overlord of the Greek world and dominate the Mediterranean. How could the Spartan inspector not excited and excited among ordinary free people? The soldiers who were originally panicked because of the murder of the leader suddenly felt relied on. Their panic faces began to turn blood and they had a few curiosity to pay attention to things beyond survival: Why did the Spartan inspector appear here?

So when Kerithops asked them to keep quiet, the soldiers actually stopped the noise.

"Brothers, our situation is very bad now! We have not only lost the leader, some squadron leader and soldiers who have been with you for a long time, and have excellent abilities; but our former ally Aliros and his men have also betrayed us! But the more we are in such a critical situation, the more we must cheer up as soon as possible, face the Persians who want to destroy us, never surrender, and use the courage and shield of our Greeks to defeat the enemy and fight for ourselves a way back to Greece! Zeus will walk with the brave!!" The Spartans really like to be simplistic and shocked. Kerithops just reminded everyone to say more inspiring words, but he had just excited the soldiers and quickly concluded his speech.

After Keritops stepped down, he passed by with Davers. When he saw Davers smiling at him, he thought to himself: It's okay, this young leader doesn't seem nervous, but why did he bring a messenger to the stage and even let him hold more than a dozen wooden sticks?

Ascesters also did not understand the purpose of Davers asking him to follow him on stage with a wooden stick, but when he stood on the wooden platform, he could no longer think about this, because the audience was crowded with people, and they stretched to the distance... At this moment, the noise in his ears was much louder than in the audience, as if there was a sea with strong winds and waves below, and he and Davers were small boats floating alone in the depths of the sea, and there was a danger of overturning at any time.

Yassus could not stop his legs from shaking. He even felt that he might collapse at any time with the wooden platform under his feet that was also trembling...

"Oh! Oh! Look! Who is this?!"

"A little guy with not growing hair yet! This is not where you should come! Get out and go home and drink your mother's breasts! Hahaha..."

"Is this the new leader selected by any military camp?! Are they crazy!!"

………

The sound of ridicule and doubt came overwhelmingly.

Ascesters was shocked and took a few steps in a row, almost retreating to the edge of the wooden platform. What impressed him was that Davers was still standing steadily in the center of the wooden platform...

The leaders in the audience also felt a little unbearable. They were dissatisfied with Davers anymore, but they were one in front of thousands of soldiers.

Timasong complained: "If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have let him go up there. This is simply hell!"

Others agreed.

Xenophon hurriedly said, "Let the next leader come up and replace him."
