Chapter 285: The South Land Army, Annihilated!

Book:The Warlord Is Back Published:2024-5-31

“Where are the people?”
On the way, Stan Knight, who was at the forefront, asked his adjutant.
“There are simply too many enemies, all running in Lord Whiteford’s direction, but the largest force is right in front of us, with nearly fifty thousand people. We can eat this fifty thousand first to relieve pressure on the rear.”
The adjutant reported.
Stan Knight glanced at the terrain ahead. It was all hills, rugged and difficult to navigate. They had already investigated that most of the incoming forces were cavalry.
On this kind of road, it was tough for them to move.
So, it was normal for them to catch up.
“Let’s eat up these fifty thousand first.”
Stan Knight didn’t care much. Since the target was Lord Whiteford, they wouldn’t pay too much attention to the rear. Probably, Primus hadn’t expected their reconnaissance system to be so powerful.
They saw through their conspiracy.
Moreover, they decisively chased after them.
So, these fifty thousand left behind were about to be eaten by them.
“Advance at full speed.”
Stan Knight issued an order and immediately commanded the entire army to move forward at full speed.
Half an hour later, they saw a dark shadow ahead, and Stan Knight excitedly said, “As expected, we caught up with these people. Cavalry is indeed slower on this kind of road. Now this group will be harvested by us.” At that moment, even the mature and stable Stan Knight was somewhat excited.
These cavalries had always been strong fighters. Defeating fifty thousand of them would be a brilliant achievement for him. However, as his men charged forward, Stan Knight’s expression gradually changed.
“Something’s wrong,” said Stan Knight, looking at the dark shadows up in the front. Despite the commotion, these people remained still, without any signs of panic. He had fought countless battles in his life, and such a situation usually meant…
“Retreat!” Stan Knight’s eyes turned red, and he roared immediately.
If the enemy was approached without panic, that meant they were well-prepared, and they had most likely fallen into a trap. However, at that moment, the ground trembled.
Soon, a bloodstained South Land soldier ran back and reported, “General Knight, we can’t retreat. There are people coming from behind, and they’re cavalry. Our men are being slaughtered!”
Although it was a hilly terrain, this road was a wide thoroughfare. It was wide enough for the South Land army to pass and for the cavalry to charge back and forth!
“Move forward!” Stan Knight immediately ordered.
With their retreat blocked, their only way out was to fight through. But as he led the army forward, a line of dark riders appeared on the opposite side, wearing black wolf-shaped masks and wind-blown black robes, with a howling wolf banner flying in the wind.
At the forefront of these riders was a man wearing a boar-tooth mask, with deep, dark eyes and a black dragon-patterned robe billowing in the wind. His gaze swept across the battlefield, causing the entire vanguard of one hundred thousand to tremble in their hearts. A chill and fear rose within them.
“Kill!” Robin uttered just one word.
He charged forward first, followed by tens of thousands of Ghost Wolf Iron Cavalry, who seemed to merge into a howling, roaring wolf.
“Kill!” Their battle cries, full of murderous intent, shook the heavens and earth. It was as if the apocalypse had arrived.
“My god… my god…” Many of the South Land army soldiers shivered, some even collapsing in fear. The Ghost Wolf Iron Cavalry, the world’s number one cavalry, could kill with their mere presence. It was no joke.
At that moment, the South Land army was in disarray.
“Form up,” Stan Knight shouted, his eyes red and his heart trembling.
The Ghost Wolf Iron Cavalry indeed had such power!
“Form up, form up now!” Stan Knight, after all, was a great general. With his many outstanding officers, he quickly regained control of the situation.
But, at that moment, the Ghost Wolf Iron Cavalry had already arrived.
“Stop them!” Stan Knight saw Robin, leading the charge toward him, and immediately gave the order.
“Yes, sir.”
“I am Favian Bird, and your opponent is me!”
“Favian Bird, let me be the one to cut him down. I’ve heard enough about this fearsome Primus. I won’t believe it until I see it for myself.”
Under Stan Knight, twelve generals rushed out to stop Robin. Leading them was Favian Bird, a man who looked like a barbarian wielding two axes. As Robin approached, Favian Bird swung his axes and shouted, “Little thief, your head is mine…”
However, before his words could fall, a head was sent flying by a spear, wearing an expression of disbelief and unyielding death – it was Favian Bird’s face.
“Annoying,” Robin spat out, his deep eyes then turning to Stan Knight, sending chills down his spine.
“Favian Bird is dead,” the remaining generals swallowed hard.
Favian Bird was a fierce general, but he was gone now.
“Protect General Knight.”
The remaining officers quickly reacted. They could die, but Stan Knight, their commanding officer, mustn’t!
“Since that’s what you w3ant!”
Robin’s spear swept across as if it were a dragon emerging from its lair.
A cold gleam flashed.
A trail of blood followed, as one after another, bodies fell to the ground.
“Stan Knight, today, with your head, I’ll let South Land know that my nation is not a place you can step foot in.”
With a roar, Robin charged.
Stan Knight was terrified and hastily retreated, but how could he escape Robin? A cold glint and a long spear pierced Stan Knight’s chest, making his face stiffen.
“Kisia… Primus… worthy… of… its… name…”
With a thud.
His body fell to the ground.
He was a seasoned general who had seen countless battles, but today, he was frightened into losing control and running away by a single roar.
As a result, he exposed his vital point.
The Primus of Kisia was indeed as invincible as the legends said.
“General Knight is dead, General Knight is dead!”
The South Land army, who had already been scared, saw their commanding officer dead and hurriedly surrendered.
Their hearts were filled with boundless fear.
However, Robin glanced at them disdainfully: “Surrender? From the moment you stepped into our nation’s territory, you lost the option to surrender. Ghost Wolves, kill them for me.”
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
The clang of weapons echoed as the Ghost Wolf Iron Cavalry’s killing intent shook the earth.
“No…”
The South Land army, now without a commanding officer, was unilaterally slaughtered by the Ghost Wolf Iron Cavalry.
In no time at all, corpses lay everywhere.
But no one had sympathy for these people.
Because this was the price, the price of invading another nation!
