With the scouts of the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army fleeing, the protagonist does not need to move for the time being.
It turned out that just now, the scouts who were searching elsewhere in the trunk had been getting closer to the top of the trunk. This is where the protagonist is currently staying, because from here you can have an unobstructed view of the entrance to "Linshui City".
Although the wind was stronger high up on the tree trunks, which made it difficult for the scouts to move, it still could not stop the scouts. They lowered their bodies and moved forward bit by bit through the cracks in the tree bark, slowly approaching the location of the protagonist.
The protagonist does not dare to take this lightly. Although these scouts have poor eyesight, once they get within half a meter, the protagonist is still at great risk of exposure.
So the protagonist has been thinking about whether to change places, because once a fight is discovered, in the protagonist's current state - wearing a thick coat and shivering from the cold, it is still very inconvenient to move, and if you are not careful, you may be blown away by the wind. If it blows into the river, it will be even worse, and it will soon turn into an ice sculpture.
However, if the protagonist changes places, the field of view will definitely not be as good as the current position, which is also quite troublesome for the protagonist who wants to grasp the overall situation of the battlefield.
Just when the protagonist hesitates, a turning point comes. As the scouts who penetrated deep into "Linshui City" were killed, the remaining scouts who sensed something was wrong immediately sent out a signal. Then those scouts who were searching immediately stopped their mission and returned to join the other scouts.
After they escaped, the protagonist climbed back into the city and encouraged Ichiban Gun and the soldiers who had just participated in the battle. However, the soldiers of the God Envoy King cannot relax their vigilance yet. The protagonist knows that after the enemy scouts escape, a formal enemy attack will follow.
The protagonist continues outside and stares at the scene on the other side of the river.
At this time, the fleeing scouts had just crossed the ice bridge and reached the north bank of the river. As they entered the phalanx of the first paving ant barbarian army they encountered, countless messengers immediately poured out of the phalanx and rushed towards other phalanxes.
As the messengers arrived one after another, all the kings of the entire paving ant barbarian army knew the latest information on the front. Countless messengers were going back and forth, conveying the opinions of their respective commanders. This is how the large number of paving ants completed a pre-war meeting. Although it was less efficient, it was still quite useful.
As the communication deepened, the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army seemed to have reached a conclusion. In fact, the specific tactics and plans have been communicated before, and the kings of the pavement ants only communicated some information that the scouts discovered that was very different from the past.
Although the scouts were not very intelligent, the information they brought back with their sacrifices still attracted the attention of the commanders of the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army. The scouts didn't know the meaning of the higher room temperature in "Linshui City", but the Pavement Ant King could understand it.
Even if the strength of the defenders is strengthened as a result, it is impossible to scare away the bellicose enemies. After a brief communication, the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army still launched the attack according to the original plan.
The 5,000 soldiers of the two phalanxes closest to the river bank were the first to start. They divided into two columns and took the lead in climbing up the ice bridge along the pheromones left by the scouts. However, these soldiers did not continue to move forward. Instead, they came to the edge of the ice bridge and stood firmly on the edge of the ice bridge with their hands and feet connected to each other, just like the guardrails on the bridge.
Subsequently, other phalanxes began to activate one after another, passing through the ice bridge one after another in order from near to far. These phalanxes will transform into long marching arrays before crossing the ice bridge. Then after crossing the ice bridge, some of the legions that arrived first will form an arc-shaped search formation, followed closely by those who form a tight phalanx. Other Legions.
Since there were two legions guarding both sides of the ice bridge, there was no crowding, trampling or falling into the water on the not-so-wide ice bridge. Forty legions crossed the frozen river in an orderly manner.
The pavement ant barbarian army arrived faster than the protagonist expected, and it only took an hour to set foot on the island where "Linshui City" is located.
However, it doesn't make much difference if you come earlier or later. The Divine Envoy King's army in "Linshui City" is already the best prepared for the battle.
Due to the large number of enemy troops, all forty legions could not climb onto the island. Therefore, except for two legions staying at the ice bridge, only eight legions landed on the island, and the other thirty legions firmly controlled the south bank of the river. land, and a wooden bridge leading to the island.
Even if only eight legions of the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army landed on the island, there would still be 20,000 enemies, far more than the defenders in "Linshui City".
However, the protagonist is not too worried. With the current defense structure of "Linshui City", no matter how many enemies there are, it will be difficult to exert a strength advantage.
In order to prevent the enemy from searching the bare tree canopy with nowhere to hide, the protagonist returned to the interior of "Linshui City" at the same time as the enemy landed on the island. He did not command from the front line, but handed over the command to Gun.
In the protagonist's temporary palace near the combustion chamber, the protagonist can feel the vibrations coming from under his feet. This is the shock of fighting and roaring between the enemy and ourselves. This is also the shock of the dying and struggling soldiers.
I don't know how long it took before this oscillation began to slow down until it disappeared. Soon, the messenger sent by Gun reported to the protagonist: the first legion of the Angel King has repelled the enemy's attack.
At this time, the sun was setting soon.
The protagonist went to see Gun, and from the information package sent by him and some front-line team commanders, the protagonist saw the full picture of the battle between the two sides.
The Legion of the God's Envoy King stood ready at the designated battlefield - the flat nest room on the second floor.
This was a carefully chosen battle location: compared to the cold first layer, the temperature on the second layer was warm enough not to have much impact on the defenders' actions.
However, the pavement ant barbarian warriors must pass through a short dark passage to get here. The protagonist does not know how long the pavement ants can be active in the dark area after being charged with sunlight, but there must be a certain time limit.
In addition, the shape of this flat nest is specially designed.
In terms of height, it is enough for the Divine Envoy King's army to use the customary decapitation tactics from high to low, and in terms of width, the influx of pavement ants is definitely no match for the defenders who have already formed a formation and have the advantage of the length of the line.
And here is the death space tailor-made by the protagonist for the paving ant barbarian army. To this end, the protagonist spared no effort in renovating the nest that was not originally in this shape.
