Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 379 Raiders
Facing the enemies coming up like a tide, Stannis knew that the end would soon come. If his troops could not resist until the last moment, then his longed-for hegemony would collapse before it even started. die.

But even though he was holding the sword in his hand, Stannis was still staring at the sky intently. Could it be that he was really waiting for a miracle to come?
Seeing that the knights were about to break through the line of defense, Xiaona on the side couldn't help but play the role of her grandfather and urged anxiously, "Your Excellency Stan, please retreat quickly, the enemy is about to kill, if you don't leave, it will be too late!"

But Stannis still kept looking up at the sky as if he didn't hear it. Now the sun in the sky has set in the west, shining on the enemy's head. He is looking for something, and that is what he needs most now.

Finally, a small black spot crossed under the corona at the edge of the sun. Because sunspots appear frequently in this world, no one else on the ground noticed it. Only Stannis recognized it. Shaped like a fly, he knows that the backup he has been waiting for has finally arrived, and now he will definitely win!
At this time, in the 'fly' in the sky, the roar of mechanical operation filled the entire transport warehouse. Randall, who was sitting at the front, glanced at the ground again in fear. Now he is two hundred feet away from the ground. High, the soldiers fighting on the ground became as small as ants.

In front of Randall sat forty or fifty soldiers who were equally as nervous as him. Only one person could remain calm, and that was the silent infantry captain Batesmore.

"Really, why did you let me and him lead this team." Randall muttered dissatisfiedly, because Hillier and Barrow were in another cargo hold at this time, so he could only talk to this mercenary team up.

Randall was going to make fun of the infantry captain in black armor, trying to neutralize the tension that was in the air.

"I said, what's in your armor? Are you alive!"

Ergou wanted to use these words to make fun of the mercenary captain's armor that he bought by selling his soul. Sure enough, several soldiers laughed. They all cared about this man who put on this black armor every time he fought. team leader'.

Hearing his voice, Batesmore raised his head. He knew that the other party was laughing at him, but he was not annoyed at all, and corrected him patiently: "You are wrong. There are no living people here, and they are pretending to be dead."

Randall was choked all of a sudden, and he already regretted provoking this guy.

At this time, the voice of the engineer Speer came from the roof of the transport warehouse. He was tapping something with a hammer, "We will reach the sky above the target in 30 seconds, everyone is ready! Remember, follow the Slip the rope down and try to land on your ass first!"

Ergou cursed silently, he really shouldn't take the initiative to sign up to be the most important "surprise soldier"!At least jumping from such a high place did not meet his original expectations.

After this group of surprise soldiers disappeared overhead, Stannis was suddenly as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

"Everyone hold on!" He roared and rushed down the battlefield with his sword drawn. Qiweini's army, which had already reached the brink of collapse, recovered its amazing morale from nowhere and pushed forward desperately. The knights who had been planning to take advantage of the victory Unexpectedly, the guys in front of them still had the strength to launch a counterattack, and they were caught off guard. They retreated slightly under the leadership of the various lords, trying to reorganize their formation and launch an attack again.

Although the elite knights of all battles certainly know that retreating is for a better attack, but in the eyes of other soldiers in the rear, this is a signal that their side cannot hold on. The knights had to 'run away', and their morale dropped to freezing point.

However, under the threat of the whips and boots of the leading officers, they did not dare to run away blatantly, but what happened next undoubtedly added fuel to the fire.

"It's fire! A fire has set our camp on fire!"

Borrowed by the southwest wind, the scorching smell of the southern military camp being burned by raging fire spread to the already frightening infantry formation. Some sharp-eyed people discovered that the camp that was in good condition before their departure was actually burned, and the flames soared into the sky. One tent after another was set on fire and burned to ashes. No one knew what happened there. The only thought of the soldiers was that someone took a back route and they were about to be attacked from both sides!
"Run! Otherwise, we'll all die here! Don't let those who run last be used as a backing for those who ran first!"

I don't know who yelled this exaggerated scream in the crowd, which instantly crushed the already low morale of the coalition forces, because Earl Snake, the guardian of the southern border, was commanding ahead. Combat, so here is equivalent to no unified command. The coalition forces, which were originally assembled in a hurry, saw that the situation was not good, and they immediately dispersed with the primary purpose of preserving their strength. Feeling that the victory was hopeless, he immediately led his men to retreat. After the chaos, the infantry behind the knights all ran away one after another, leaving only the helpless knights and retinues fighting alone.

The battlefield turned 180 degrees in an instant!

At this time, in the camp of the coalition forces, Batesmore was wiping the blood on his Soul Slayer Sword with his sword. Like Stannis, he was also wearing black armor all over his body, and there were corpses piled up beside him.

Around him, Qiweini's soldiers were holding torches and setting fire to tents, ordnance, and food and grass. They were all elites carefully selected by Stannis for this mission. Although there were less than 100 people, they went smoothly. completed the task.

At this time, in front of Batesmore, there was a dying baron gasping for breath. He was the commander of the camp who stayed behind and led 300 people to guard the camp. Instantly annihilated, the baron held his wound and said in disbelief: "This is impossible! Why did you suddenly appear behind the battlefield? My sentinels didn't even notice you approaching from the periphery. Could it be that you came out of the ground? ?”

Batesmore, who killed thirty soldiers by himself just now, decided to fulfill the guy's dying wish. He pointed to the sky, but there was nothing there, only a dozen vertical ropes falling from 50 feet in the air. .

The baron understood instantly, but he still couldn't believe it: "This is a secret vehicle that only Duke Garcia has, why do you also have it?"
