I am a soldier from Athens. I have a sword and a shield with me. This morning around 20000 Persians arrived by boat. I acn see them coming at us with their horses. Once the huge army was next to us we started fighting with our weapons. Once we saw the army we sent our herald(Phippides)to Sparta to ask for help. In the fierce battle 6400 Persians died and only 192 Greeks were killed. The rest of the Persian army ran away and tried to attack Athens. After Phidippides came back he ran to Athens to announce our victory. He the collapsed and died. Sina 5N

Battle of Marathon The Persians had 200000 men but we only had 10000. Our leader decided to send out Phidippides,our fatest soldier to Sparta to ask the Spartans to help defeat the Persians. But the Spartans were in a religious festival celebrating their victory and would not come to help until the full moon. So the Athenians had to fight the Persians themselves. The next morning Phidippides ran to Athens to tell us the bad news. But we had a clever way to fight the Persians, we smacked them with our shields then we stabed them with our sword and kept on doing that until the remaining Persians escaped in their ships. Then phidippides ran to Marathon to tell them we have won and then died of exhaustion.

The attack by the Persians was very surprising for us.We wanted to fight because we new if we didn't fight,the Persians would think that we are scared of them.A warrior called Phidippides ran all the way to Sparta and back which i think is very impressing.Our commander Milltidies had a plan.The plan was never done before but our commander was sure that it would work.We started the war in Marathon.It was time to try our plan,so we did it.We won,we won.everybody was glad and Athens was safe.Phidippides ran to Athens to announce the news.After announcing the news that they won,he fell on the ground and passed away.

Phidippies was sent to sparta to ask for help but the sparta said they will help intil it's full moon,Phidippies went to marathon and told the soldiers that the sparta will araive at full moon then phidippies fighted with the soldiers.
The Athenian soldiers had a plan,the plan was they had to split into two small groups and some stay in the middle the first group went to the left of the battle the second group went to the right of the battle the persions ran to the Athenian soldiers the Atheniean soldiers fought with the persions and right away the groups started throwing arows at the persions while they were fighting the Athenian soldiers then there were a little of the persions they sailed of to persions.
they sent phidippies to Athens to tell everybody that they won when he araived he said,"we won the battle" then he calapsed.
I felt glad that we won the battle.

ReplyDeleteThe thing that i know about Battle Of Marathon is one day the far away Asian country of Persia took action and sent their army out to capture Athens. Of course, when the Athenians heard of this they were extremely scared.

I had stayed hidden for two days upon the trees. The Persian armies were 20 X our size. Then Commander Miltiades had a plan. He said to attack the flanks to weaken the army. As we marched down the hill, I got frightened, what if I didn’t make it out alive. As we attacked, the Persians fired arrows at us, but thanks to our metal shields none of us got killed. As we slaughtered them all, some began retreating and we chased them to a nearby marsh where we sent them to drown. The rest went back to the ships as a retreat. Then, commander Miltiades sent Phidipiddes to Athens to announce the victory. When phidippedes announced the great victory, he dropped dead of exhaustion. The people of Athens had then acted as though the city was highly defended. Once we arrived, the Persians got extremely frightened and went back to Persia.
ReplyDeleteYey we beat the persians in war,we had better weapons than their bows and arrows. Now they wont try to take our land again. Long live Athens.

We were very scared when we heard that the Persians were attacking. We sent Phidippides as he ran from athens to Sparta to ask for help, and back to marathon. That took two days running.The spartans could not fight until it was a full moon.
ReplyDeleteThis lead for bigger problems for us. We had to fight on our own. This was hard because the persians had 20,000 soldiers and we only had 10,000 soldiers. What we did was that we divided the soldiers into three groups, two on each sides of the city and one in the front. when the persians came they started to attack the soldiers at the front, so the soldiers on either sides came attacking them.We won the battle,and when the persians started to run away to there boats we tried to burn some of there boats.We were very proud of our victory and only 192 athenians were killed, the persians lost 6400 soldiers. When Phiddippides came back to athens to announce our victory he then died.
