Naval Battle For Phyrros Island (Part-4)

"Aghh! What is that? An arrow?"

"Right! But how are they so fast! And hit so hard? Urghhh!"

"Dammit! Where did this come from? Sheilds! Sheileds! Lift up your shields! Defend!"

"Agghh! It's no use! My hand! It pierced through my shield to hit my hand! Argghh!"

"Ahhhh.. brother! No! Get up!"

"Shit! They were tearing through our shields like soft clay! What in the devil's name are they using to fire these things? Shit!"

It was with such alarmed shouts that the bursts of concentrated crossbows and instant bow fire were received by the enemy, producing significant terror and panic.

A phenomenon made all the deadlier by the fact that Heeat family soldiers did not equip themselves as heavily as Alexander's men, so instead of having chainmail along with a bronze cuirass as armor and a large heavy shield to protect two thirds of the body, they chose to have a small shield, light armor, and a short sword.
