Perseus Vs Alexander (Part-3)

Chapter 868

Lord Mithriditus's reinforcements consisted half of infantry and half of cavalry, and at Perseus's deployment, it was these men that rode out first, engaging the enemy attempting to break through. 

And it would not be wrong to say that it was them who proved critical in stopping Talukder (Viscount) Prantik from winning the battle then and there, for they were able to come to the aid of the damaged section of the lines very quickly, giving the legion commander no time to swing around and attack the surrounding phalangites' flanks.

"*Haaaah!*"

"Come brothers! The ancestors beckon us!"

"For Tibias! For His Majesty!"

"For glory!"

It helped that this entire force consisted mostly of Perseus's royal guards and they engaged the legionaries with nary a hesitation.

These experienced veterans did not fear the battlefield.

Instead, they were almost drawn to it.
