The Chronicles Of The Shark Empire

The Despair Create Demons

The force of mounted warriors led by Sarpi reached the enemy, and there they were, their backs open to unseen danger.

So following his own ideas of war, Sarpi waited for nightfall and when the sky had darkened he and his men advanced towards the enemy camp, his last order being to attack the central hut in which the leaders were likely to be and after that if they were eliminated, the Persian army would be demoralized, facilitating the service of the Cretan forces that followed.

It all happened so quickly that when the Persians realized it, Sarpi's Romphaia had gone through the head of the Persian commander who had cowardly killed his men.

And the way they got in, like a passing storm, they got out, no casualties. and with the troops bewildered and demoralized, Kiro's forces, who observed what had happened with surprise, took the opportunity to attack and gradually eliminate the Persian plague from Cretan territory.

This had been a great victory for the Cretans, now the Persians were surrounded by enemies, not enough high command, not enough food, not arrows, it was only a matter of time before they succumbed to despair, or so the Cretans thought.

The reality was completely different, the immortals who were trained to command in situations like these, made Crete the hell on earth, ate the flesh of their dead compatriots if they didn't have the flesh of the Cretan people to eat, drank the blood and bones they made weapons .

Even so, they were unable to leave the island at all, the Cretan siege did not weaken. even though around Crete, the Persian fleet attacked every day without fail, they still couldn't get past the sand on the beach.

But that would change two months later, when the Chinese fleet arrived in the Mediterranean and saw the Persians attacking the Cretan island with zeal. We will not have such an opportunity again! They thought.
