Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 157 Betrayal
"Where's the horse?" Korodov asked anxiously from the side, and he still didn't forget to talk about his cavalry at this hour.

But Zhe Botai said disapprovingly: "They all slipped away, I guess they went to find the mares! But don't feel bad, they are all bad-tempered bad horses, and they can't control those good horses that are as wild as men! "

But Korodov was still slurring his mouth in distress, and this annoying voice was still accompanied by Stannis' ears until the water bandits on the other side finished forming an array.

"My Lord Knight Commander, stop muttering! I will get some horses for me after this battle!"

Stannis was so annoyed by him that he had to pretend to agree first.

The annoying noise finally stopped, and Stannis was able to concentrate on the battlefield.

But when he saw the gang of water bandits at first glance, he was very shocked. Didn't he say that he was going to beat the water bandits?But what appeared in front of him was undoubtedly a group of advanced soldiers and pirates!
This group of strong men is like dense ants moving all over the grassland outside the valley. Although there are only a few hundred people, they are already very imposing. At the same time, the more than 100 heavy infantry like pirates in the center are particularly prominent. They are the water bandit group. The core force is completely armed to the teeth. Every gangster wears long chain mail, holds a two-handed axe, and wears a horned nose helmet. It can be seen that many people have been chopped off.

"Is this different from the setting!" Stannis thought he was going to fight low-level soldiers, but he didn't expect to fight these mid-level soldiers as soon as he came up.

"Boss, this gang of water bandits has been fighting for so long, and they have seized countless trophies, so the level of equipment should be up to par!" Robert comforted him.

Stannis is too lazy to get angry at this setting that disgusts himself, and his critical moment now is to find a way to deal with the pirates among the gang of water bandits. The other water bandits are no different from his impression, they are all shirtless, The weapons are either sticks or stones, and a green cashmere hat is put on, which is very joyful.But seeing the axes in Haikou's hands made him terrified, he could imagine his soldiers being cut in two with one axe.

"Is there anything special about the water bandit? Do you want to come out and greet the boss on the opposite side?" Stannis asked others.

Robert and Korodov shook their heads. The water bandits belong to the lowest level among the bandits in the Westland. They are despised by all the bandits. They are worse than the bandits and bandits they encountered last time, so there is no need to pay attention to battlefield etiquette , Just do it directly.

Stannis shrugged, and he didn't want to say something he didn't know what it was to the last time. "Then never mind! Everyone line up and attack!"

Hearing his order, 100 infantrymen lined up in four rows and moved forward at a slow pace. The sound of uniform footsteps made the blood of Stannis on the horse boil.

Those water bandits didn't expect that Qi Weini's army, which was much smaller than them, would dare to provoke them. They were very angry. A big man who looked like their leader walked out of the crowd. His upper body was naked and his face was painted in red. With tattoos, this wild strongman delivered an impassioned speech in front of the group of water bandits, and then, led by the elite heavy infantry, began to rush in the direction of Stannis.

The infantry archers behind Qiweini's infantry began to shoot arrows. On this unobstructed grassland, the infantry bows in their hands began to exert their maximum power. The archers began to shoot at a speed of 6 arrows per minute. The dense arrow rain was like The god of death generally reaps life, especially those shirtless and unarmored targets, who are basically killed or injured when hit.

When the infantry of the two sides finally fought, the water bandit army had already lost at least 20% of its combat power due to bows and arrows, but the final victory or defeat still had to be decided by face-to-face hand-to-hand combat.

Stannis thought the same way. He appeared at the front line holding the 'Broken Knee', and his own morale aura boosted the morale of the soldiers around him.

“The weather is really nice today!”

"It's also a good day to harvest heads!"

"I'll take the heads of you guys!"

Another set of quality three companies, 100 of the more than 30 elite heavy infantry of the water bandits fell into chaos and blocked the way for the people behind to charge.

But Stannis was also exhausted after roaring the dragon roar, and it seemed that releasing three dragon roars at once was his limit.

Although the dragon's roar caused some confusion, but there were too many water bandits, Qi Weini's army could be crushed by hundreds of people crowding together.

Of course Stannis knew this. Before starting the battle, he asked his soldiers to retreat to the center of the valley at an unobtrusive speed. At this time, it showed the advantage of the legion as a professional soldier, that is, the long After training, they can carry out orders very well, instead of rushing away as soon as they see a retreat, even if it is a false defeat, like the temporarily caught strong men.

The infantry of the legion approached the archer phalanx in an orderly manner. Stannis' plan to lure the enemy into a deep place was a great success, but there was one thing that puzzled him, that is, the good ambush should be killed, but the dragon roar had already roared For a long time, I still haven't seen anyone coming.

Stannis raised his head and looked to both sides of the valley, where is there anyone lying in ambush there!
The lord instantly felt cold from head to toe, his allies betrayed him and retreated without authorization!
Stannis never thought about this situation, the allies whom he swore to swore allegiance to him unexpectedly abandoned him and ran away without saying a word!He never thought that people's hearts would be so sinister, these guys obviously want to die in the hands of these gangsters!
"Boss, those bastards have abandoned us!" Robert also saw this, and he shouted in despair.

All the soldiers heard his wailing, and they immediately found themselves alone and helpless, and the morale of even the most rigorously trained troops was undoubtedly devastated.The battling infantry began to waver, and the overlord could read in their faces betrayal, fear, and anger.

To make matters worse, the elite pirates among the water bandits who were in a state of chaos have recovered, and the battle axes in their hands began to kill, causing a rain of blood.

The screams spread throughout the battlefield, and the infantry of the legion could only move closer to the rear in vain. It seemed that another big defeat was inevitable.

But Stannis did not flinch, the blood of the dragon flowing in his body drove him forward, and at the same time the anger of betrayal in his chest had begun to change, no longer fear and despair, but fearless courage.
