Cyrus and the Spartan Fleet

The Aedorus says that these men had been sent under the pretext that they were friends of Cyrus, as the E4 still had not formally entered into the war. With the losses of Minos 200 men, the Greek contingent was now about 10,400. The combined sabbartan and Persian fleet accompanied them by sea. When they arrived at the gates between Solisia and Syria, they found the place clear of guards.
