Stannis didn't expect the good Canny to fight Zama.

Zivinie's army was about to lose.

This traverser miscalculated, because his central soldier began to waver, he obviously overestimated the combat effectiveness and morale of that gang of former bandits, facing an enemy several times his own, even a person with a lot of consciousness knew that there was any hope of victory in this battle.

"Hold it off for me!" Stannis cried out desperately in the back, but it was useless, the soldiers did not know what his encirclement and counter-encirclement strategy was, only that they were going to lose, and the desperate morale would be disastrous if it spread, first one person ran away, then a group of people ran away, and finally all of them ran away.

In the blink of an eye, the legion that Stannis had painstakingly managed and dubbed Thunder had collapsed, and they were all rushing in the direction of Stannis.

The coalition forces on the opposite side took advantage of the situation to cover up the killing, they switched their weapons to wooden sticks that they didn't know where to take out - special equipment for capturing prisoners, and knocked out the soldiers of Zivinie who were busy fleeing for their lives one by one, a typical defeat.

Stannis did not expect that his second independent expedition would lead to a great defeat, and the military genius he thought he had turned out to be so vulnerable.

"Don't run, go back to fighting!" he cried out in vain as he brandished his sword on his horse, but no one answered him, and at this moment, the lord realized how powerless he was.

Although his army did not fight well, it ran very quickly, at least the coalition forces could not catch up with them when they captured prisoners.

"I actually lost...... Lose......" Stannis muttered to himself, facing such a major defeat for the first time, his heart immediately collapsed, and he reacted to a major defeat like many celebrities in ancient and modern times, that is, suicide......

He was ready to commit suicide by throwing himself into the water or launch a suicidal charge, and so on.

The men who fled happily for their lives soon saw a strange sight on the battlefield, the lord was facing the enemy in the direction of the flow of people.

It looks like Hannibal is about to fail.

Just as Stannis was riding his horse and raising his arms to meet the enemy's blades, he was suddenly thrown off his horse by Robert.

"Boss, are you confused, the direction of escape is reversed!"

Stanich scolded, "Niang Xipi, you bastards don't fight hard when you should be desperate, and you are more positive than one when you run for your life, with a force like you, I really have no face to live in the world, and I can only use suicide to thank the world!"

Robert didn't care about what he said, he only knew that he couldn't let this guy die, so he picked him up and ran for his life with the crowd.

Along the way, there were constant arrows passing through his ears, but miraculously, none of them hit Stannis's body.

In the process of escaping for their lives, the two men encounter Bachelor Romon and Korodov, who are both returning alone to find Stannis, and it seems that even in such a difficult moment, they have not forgotten the lord, even if he is not the real Stennis .

"Your Excellency, what's the matter?" said Master Romon in surprise as he looked at the lifeless lord on Robert's shoulder.

Robert waved his hand, "The boss has lost the battle, and he can't think about it for a while, so he wants to find a short-term view, so let me carry it back!"

"My lord, you must not think about it! It doesn't matter if we lose the battle, next time we can fight again, but if there are no people, there will be nothing!" Unexpectedly, the usually quiet knight chief reacted the most excitedly at this time.

But Stannis, who was hanging upside down on Robert's back, did not reply, and he fainted from the upside down.

"Carry him back to safety!" said Master Romon with calm wisdom.

In the shadow of this defeat, these three guys, who have always been looked down upon by Stannis, can still maintain amazing calm.

Rob nodded, "Leave it to me!"

Then Maester Romon raised his staff and said to Korodov, "Your Excellency, will you shed the last drop of blood for your allegiance?"

The chief knight didn't answer, but the sword he drew was the best response.

The old man nodded, let them break off for this army now!

In the haze of his coma, Stannis seemed to see the orange glow on Lady Lomon's crutches!

Two hours inside the castle of Zivignie.

A splitting head opened his puffy eyes and saw himself in the bedroom that he was neither warm nor comfortable, but indeed what he wanted to see the most.

"Could it be that I just had a dream?" Stannis touched his head in a daze, and the pain instantly woke him up, and a large bag rose on the back of his head, which he remembered was knocked unconscious by a thrown rock when he was put on Robert's shoulder.

It looks like he's not dreaming, but completely defeated.

It's just that why did he return to the castle intact?

Confused, Stennis got up, got dressed, pushed open the door, and went downstairs, where he found Robert and Korodov sitting on the floor of the hall, sighing and looking dejected.

He didn't speak, because he didn't know how to vent his feelings of failure.

Suddenly, he felt that there was one missing from the familiar trio.

"Where has the old man gone?" he asked, a little anxiously.

Robert looked up, his eyes full of sadness, "He...... He was caught by those bastards. ”

Stannis almost lost his feet and fell to the ground, he never expected that the most useless-looking Bachelor Romon would be caught on the battlefield, and he didn't let him go to the front!

Korodov on the side also sighed, "I really didn't expect that he would take the initiative to let me break off with him, although he hasn't raised a wooden fight and was knocked out and taken away by someone with a fist, but the courage he showed is still amazing." ”

The lord didn't know what expression to use to face this situation for a while.

"Boss, you don't have to worry too much, the old man is a bachelor with status, as long as you are willing to spend money, you can redeem him. ”

Sure enough, in this era, the life of a liberal arts student is more valuable.

After three seconds of silence for the unfortunate fate of Lady Lomon, Stannis asked again, "How much have we lost this time?"

After a brief silence, Robert gave the answer, "I didn't die much, basically all of them were caught if they couldn't run fast." ”

“......”

This legion of his own may have added all the points to escape, which is why the combat effectiveness is so low.

"Actually, boss, you don't have to be so discouraged, although this battle was lost, there is still room for improvement! Robert encouraged him.

Stennis was reinvigorated with ambition, "Oh, keep talking. ”

"This ......" Robert was actually just comforting him just now, but he didn't expect the other party to continue to ask so desperately.

Korodov, who was still on the side, said, "For example, the next time you fight, you should stand with your soldiers and let them know that the leader is with them and walks side by side." ”

The lord suddenly felt a sense of mission descending on him, yes, the biggest problem of the army in this era is the morale problem, even the elite troops only need to exceed 30% casualty rate can collapse the entire front, and if a noble person like him braves the arrows to join the battle, the morale can definitely be doubled, because those soldiers know that they are no longer cannon fodder to die, but partners who fight side by side with the lord.

While that was a good idea, and Stannis couldn't wait to start the next fight, he now had more difficult issues to deal with.

That is to deal with the problem of defeated armies.
