Meanwhile, more and more enemies fell at Nathan's feet.
Those defeated by Nathan alone had exceeded a thousand men.
Including those that were killed by Fang, Destroyer, Heptakill, and their subordinates, the total had exceeded three thousand men.
Although the Davier army had lost less than twenty percent of their men, their morale had been severely affected. One by one, they were no longer eager for battle and were one step away from fleeing.
In truth, it was hard to blame them.
In ancient times, once casualties exceeded five percent, the troops would be routed.
In modern times, an ordinary army needed their casualties to rise to thirty percent before they could be routed.
With heavy losses suffered by the Davier army and the deaths of their most powerful subordinates, it was a surprise that the rest of the army comprising of ordinary disciples and associates had not begun to flee.
When Clifford saw that all his close associates and long-time subordinates had been killed, tears streamed down his eyes.
He was cognizant of the fact that if the battle continued, the rest of his army would just be massacred.
This cannot go on!I can't wait any longer. I have to use my trump card now.
In a throaty voice, he ordered a National Guard by his side, “Tell Pietro to deploy the three thousand strong private army and come to our aid at once.”
“Yes, Mr. Davier!”
After more than ten minutes, the battle maintained its earlier intensity. The Davier army's casualties had mounted to four thousand men while the rest of the survivors were all terrified.
Eurasia's God of War, together with Fang, Destroyer, and Heptakill of the North Army, were all extremely powerful as if they had arisen from Hell itself.
Just when the Davier army was about to waver, someone suddenly shouted, “They're here! Reinforcements are here!”
When the men in the Davier camp heard it, they couldn't help but look up at the horizon. In the vast expanse of the wilderness, where the earth met the sky, they saw a couple of small dots from afar.
These black dots were actually black armored SUVs that were speeding toward them on the road.
