Chapter 2 (2/2)
”Not good! They want to attack the Greeks!!” Artapatus shouted
The Greek Hoplites that were scattered in pursuit of the defeated army will likely fall into chaos if they were attacked from the rear by the enemy and the situation would be reversed
”Artaxerxes, how dare you change formation on the battlefield Did you really think that due toa fewer cavalry and won't dare to take the initiative to attack!” Cyrus the Younger sneered and made a quick decision in his mind He raised his spear and pointed forward: ”Co to speed up! The cavalry attacked with hness, please put on your helmet!” The attendant hastily handed over his heler then rushed out, the attendants on the left and right rushed to catch up and soon guarded hie-shaped for's central troops
Artagases, the co's central troops, did not expect that Cyrus the Younger dares to attack at this time and hurriedly deployed the cavalry to intercept However, at thispositions, the vast revolving infantry formation blocked the cavalry's way forward, and it is not easy to squeeze out thousands of cavalry froether with the galloping cavalry have already reach the horses and the the hastily patched cavalry defense of the persian troops got instantly torn apart
Then, like a sharp knife, the cavalry of Cyrus the Younger plunged into the persian king's central troops that was turning around

Thinking of his i the throne that should be his (It's just Cyrus the Younger's i didn't even think about passing the throne to hie burned in his chest: ”Artaxerxes!” He roared and threw out the spear in his hand, with the sound of exclauards and hit the Persian king in the chest
The Persian king screamed and fell from his chariot
There was chaos when they saw the Persian king fall His anger was finally vented, and he wildly laughed, as if the Persian crown had arrived, but he did not hear the cavalry behind hihness, look out! LOOK OUT!!…”
The laughter came to an abrupt end A javelin flew out of the chaotic crowd and hit him in the eye
He did not utter a word and immediately fell off the horse…
