In the Battle of Thermopylae, how could 300 warriors resist hundreds of thousands of Persian troops

Because these 300 warriors were very strong, and the terrain of Hot Spring Pass at that time was dangerous.

Occupy the advantage of the terrain. Because of the narrow terrain, the 100,000 army had to be divided into a trickle and pass slowly, and the 300 people could completely hold it by occupying the advantage of the terrain.

This is because the location of the hot spring pass at that time was relatively dangerous, and it was an easy place to defend and difficult to attack. In addition, these 300 warriors are also very powerful, so they can withstand the Persian army in the end.

Those who are familiar with Greek history will know that Sparta is famous, after all, as a city-state known for its military force, it is quite impressive. Thinking that Sparta was able to kill nearly 20,000 Persian coalition troops in the Battle of Hot Springs, with only 300 warriors, what is the reason behind such a powerful combat power?

Spartan society was divided into three classes, Spartan citizens, Periathies, and Helots. True Spartan citizens were professional military men who were completely detached from production and spent most of their lives engaged in training, politics, religion, etc.

Generally speaking, Spartan citizens end their childhood after reaching the age of 12 and begin to undergo rigorous training and even severe abuse.

For example, shoes are not allowed all year round, and thick clothes are not allowed in winter, so you can only wear a thin coat. At the same time, these children are not even allowed to sleep in beds and have to make their own straw mats.

Not only that, but in order to train these Spartans in terms of their strong will and ability to survive, they did not even provide them with any food, but asked them to go hunting in the wild and be in the company of wild beasts!

Of course, in order to be able to cultivate a sense of absolute obedience, the punishment of the Smutan Badans was extremely cruel, and in addition, the Spartans could not receive a high education, after all, they could not think deeply enough to be easy to command.

After going through brutal training, Sbasui has become a powerful existence with fierce combat power!

The hot spring pass itself is a narrow passage that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, with the sea on one side and the steep mountain wall on the other.

Although there are many Persian coalition forces, in the face of such terrain, it is difficult for troops to encircle, and they can only use wheel warfare to rush up in waves.

However, the Persian coalition army, with the close cooperation and attack of the Spartan warriors, could only retreat.

In the early days, many film and television works deliberately said that only Sparta's 300 warriors could resist the hundreds of thousands of Persian troops in order to guess and sell, but in fact, with the armies of various states, Leonidas had at least 7,000 or so troops to call on.

With the cooperation of these thousands of friendly troops, the Spartan warriors repelled several waves of Persian army attacks. Xerxes also sent "immortals" in battle, and these soldiers were also very powerful, even inferior to the trained Spartans, and it is estimated that the Persians would have won here if they had not resorted to a feint strategy.

Onsen Pass is a narrow passage that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, with the sea on one side and a steep mountain wall on the other. The village is near a hot spring, hence the name thermopylae. This is an inscription engraved on a lion-shaped monument that stands at the Demobil Pass (literally translated as Thermopylae Pass) in Greece and commemorates the Battle of Thermopylae Pass in 480 BC.

The Battle of Thermopylae was another historic confrontation between the Persian Empire and Ancient Greece 10 years after the Battle of Marathon in the First Polish-Greek War, and a famous battle in the Second Greco-Greek War.

In 480 BC Persia belonged to the Achaemenid dynasty (558 BC 330 BC) and was known as the First Persian Empire. The Battle of Thermopay Pass was a battle fought in 480 BC under the leadership of Xerxes I.

In fact, it was the Persian king who led and redirected more than 50 million waves of absolute judgment slave army, known as 5 million to attack the hot spring pass of Greece.

The king of Sparta and his 300 rubber-drafted guards were the first to resist at Thermopylae, and wiped out between 20,000 and 30,000 Persian troops.

300 people is an exaggeration, 300 people here refers to the Spartan warriors among the 6,700 people, and Persia is not bad, the shot is 20,000 people, but 20,000 people died under the hot spring pass, and the number of people who specifically attacked the hot spring pass was hundreds of thousands, and the specific ones were no longer reliable, and the later attack on Sparta was naturally hundreds of thousands.

The commander of the guards was Leonidas, the king of Sparta, with a total of about 7,200 troops, including 300 Spartan citizens. As the Persian army approached the pass, Xerxes waited for four days in anticipation that the Greek defenders would flee in fear of Suigai. On the fifth day, Xerxes, who had not been able to guess the bridge, launched an attack to eliminate stupidity.
