Chapter 179: Rhodok Legion

Stannis found that they were already trapped in a cage, surrounded by countless Chaos people to the south, the mountains to the north blocking their retreat, a large pine forest to the east, and vertical cliffs to the west.

But the monsters were slow to attack, and it seemed that they did not want to get wet, but waited for the river to freeze.

Although everyone ran to the safety of the snowy slope, the whole army was in chaos, completely lost the chain of command, the avalanche just now and these sudden monsters had made everyone angry, and all they were thinking about now was how to escape, even if they abandoned the people around them.

And the lords who survived were as clueless as headless flies, some broke down and sobbed, some began to go crazy under pressure, and many more blamed Enrique for their desperation, and they cursed at the young man, forgetting that when they heard that there was an enemy, they were eager to kill the enemy.

Although this Enrique is a boresome bear child, the fault should not be borne by him entirely, and Stannis is ready to stand up and say a few words.

But no sooner had he cleared his throat than he heard someone shout in a frightened voice, "O gods!

Stannis hurriedly looked straight ahead, where the Chaos people were still stuck because of the river, and there were no white monsters in the forest to the east, and then, he was surprised to find that in the thick snow to the west, there was a white creature moving quickly here. There was no river to block it, so the Chaos people were able to walk through the snow with impunity, and although the number of monsters in this batch was less than a hundred, the expeditionary force, which had lost its fighting spirit, could only watch as the other side approached and waited to be killed.

"Everyone, array, array, these monsters can be killed, don't be afraid!" Stannis shouted to organize a resistance, but all his efforts were in vain, and everyone but his men were huddled together in a panic, although they had no way out.

"Let's run into the forest!" One of the counts, apparently frightened, lost his basic judgment, and fear was contagious, and several lords responded to him, and they fled with a third of their men out of the large army towards the forest.

Stennis jumped up and down in a hurry, and the number was already at a disadvantage, and they had no hope of winning in such a run.

Since his words were useless, Stannis could only find someone who could speak, "Enrique, you TM gave the order, we will all be doomed if this continues!"

But the little boy responded with a stupid cry, and Seaworth coaxed him like an old nanny.

In this chaotic atmosphere of fear, only the sound of the naked bodies of the Chaos Folk stepping on the snow made people's hearts beat faster with each step.

"Damn, I thought I could hug my thighs for this simple task!" Stannis cursed loudly, but even if he died, he would die with dignity, he stood in front of everyone inside, and raised his hand resolutely, "Archer, listen to my orders!"

Even though he knew that the bow and arrow would not work against such a monster that feared death, he still had to fight hard.

However, a low, loud sound came from the sky, the sound of a trumpet from afar, and then, to the crisp beat of the drums, an army appeared in the west, behind the Chaos People.

There is no doubt that this is an army of men!

The sun shone on the snow, and the reflection of the sunlight set off the mystical army as if it were descending from the heavens, and their broad shields were painted in green, drawing standing brown bears. Each person holds a 10-foot (about 3 meters) long cross spear in their hands, wears pot helmets and chain mail, arm armor and leg armor are specially reinforced, and the banner they hold high is also a green brown bear.

Among them, someone recognized what the flag represented, "Rhodok, this is Rhodok's army!"

Stannis couldn't help frowning, as we all know, the Republic of Rhodok is at war with the Erathia Empire, although this has reached the border line between the two countries, but because it is not the main battlefield and has no strategic value, neither side has deployed the main army here, but how can this Rhodok army appear here? Could it be that they are the culprits in creating these monsters, or even if they are not, they want to take advantage of the chaos to rob them!

Before Stannis could figure it out, the slow beat of the drums suddenly became sudden, and the soldiers in the Rhodok army on the opposite side began to charge in batches and regularly, and their target was the Chaos People!

They're here to save themselves!, Stannis can only think of this plausible explanation now.

Although the Rhodok infantry belonged to the category of heavy infantry in terms of armor and shields, their charge was still extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye they appeared behind the monsters.

The Chaos Folk noticed them, too, but only the last row or two of monsters had time to turn around and face them, raising their arms flat and turning their knives at the same point as naginatas, the sharp tips of which could undoubtedly pierce the shield and take the lives of those behind them under the high-speed charge.

But the Rhodok army looked extremely well trained, and in this sudden turn of events, the soldiers of the first three rows pulled open the gap during the run, and all those with spears in their hands raised them and threw them at the same time like javelins, and the power of these sharp heavy cross guns was so amazing that in just one throw, the monsters in the first two rows fell to the ground.

Immediately afterward, the soldiers rushed out of their crotches with their melee weapons, short swords, shouting and rushing into the monster bush with their backs to them, their tactics were extremely skillful, smashing their shields into the face of the Chaos Min, and then taking advantage of the gap between its retreats, with the broken sword, which was so sharp that it could dismember the monster's flesh almost with a single blow.

The tide of battle was reversed in an instant, and the monsters, which numbered less than a hundred, were wiped out like chopping melons and vegetables, and the Rhodok army did not stop, but continued to advance, approaching the hillside where they were like Stannis.

Everyone's nerves were tense here, for they didn't know if the hostile forces would kill them all as they had just done.

A stone's throw from the hillside, the green unit stopped, and out of it came a burly officer, unlike the other soldiers, who was adorned with a pair of visors on his helmet and wore a cuirass full of medals, undoubtedly boasting of his exploits.

The man pushed his armor on, revealing a middle-aged face, and shouted, "I am Vibius, the centurion of the 7th Corps under the V Legion of Rhodoc, and I have been ordered to come to your rescue!" 12910
