This happens during the Persian and Greek Battle. During their days, they even interviewed survivors who had fought during the war.

Unlike the Army of Persia, they do not have the right number of people who are highly capable of being called as a soldier. They do not have the tools and resources to fight back. They are just a small nation compared to Persia. They are outnumbered. Not only in terms of people but also when it comes to weapons and battle gears.

Before they attempted to capture the Greece, they have successfully captured other cities such in Iona and Macedonia. Truly, you could never compare their qualities from Greek people.

Instead of waiting in defense, they attack the Persian soldiers with precautions and right timing. Before that occur, they tried to send a runner to Sparta to asks for its help. The runner travel for two days just to just to rely on this message. Unfortunately, even with the alliance and promise made by Sparta, they requested to prepare for few days before joining the battle.

If they would wait for the help of their neighboring nation, things might get worst. Knowing how the Persian Army works, it might be too late to take any actions in the future. After several hours of debates, they decided to attack the Persian. They do not want to stay defensive knowing that the wall they have created will just break.

After hearing the message, Sparta accepts the request. Sparta is a nation full of credible soldiers and military supplies. With their help, surely, the Greek Army would be able to save their country. Unfortunately, though, even with the agreement, Sparta asks for few more days before joining in the battlefield.

That way of thinking put this army down. It caught them off guard. After the night comes, these people try to load back all their horses and chariots on the ship. Fortunately, the Greece army took advantage of this opportunity. After the right time to charge comes, they march towards the enemy territory under a fast pace.
