Thanks to George Canonis for his major work in proofreading. "Κύρου Ανάβασις Τόμος 2" by Xenophon is a historical account written in the 4th century BC. This work details the events surrounding the retreat of the Greek mercenaries under Cyrus the Younger, as they navigate their difficult journey back to Greece after the collapse of their mission. The narrative highlights themes of leadership, survival, and the dynamics of military cohort interactions during this perilous adventure. At the start of the narrative, Xenophon discusses the aftermath of the Greeks' successful arrival at Trabzon after a series of struggles. The Greek soldiers convene to navigate their next steps forward, expressing weariness with their arduous journey and longing for a safe passage home. Leo of Thurius proposes that they utilize the newly accessible sea route for their return, leading to the decision to send for ships to transport them. Xenophon weighing the scarcity of provisions and the danger of the surrounding hostile territories, emphasizes the need for vigilance and strategic planning while preparing for further supply raids and fortifying their camp. The dialogue among the soldiers portrays their camaraderie and dire situation, setting the stage for the ensuing challenges they will face.
