First they sent emissaries around the city-states with god, bribing cites to join with them. Against the hold-outs they advanced by land, with a flanking fleet which threatened the southern Greek city-states, so the cities kept their armies at home defending their walls and so would be unable to unite into a string force, allowing the Persians to take over the cities one by one.
