However, this kind of reform must be done slowly. After all, it involves the fifty flying knights and the vital interests of the fifty kings. There are only so many kings under the protagonist's command. If he touches so many kings at once, the protagonist has to worry about using too much force, causing the death of other male ant rabbits, and shaking his own rule.
The protagonist simply put down his thoughts and started going to the main lair. He ordered his men to treat "Tempest" well and feed him some meat every day. Then the protagonist rides on Xiaoqing II and rushes to the main nest.
——I am the dividing line——
Five days later, the protagonist returned to "Linshui City" from the main nest. He came back with a dark face. It can be seen that this trip was not smooth.
It's not that there was anything bad on the way, it's that the protagonist was angered by the king's meeting.
When the protagonist arrived at the main lair, it was already afternoon that day.
When he landed on the main nest hill castle, a patrol immediately spotted him. After confirming his identity, the patrol team released him.
The protagonist asked Wang Yi, the leader of the patrol, and found out that the wedding ceremony had ended yesterday.
Now, the king's meeting is being held to discuss preparations for the upcoming war against the pavement ant barbarians.
The protagonist immediately walked to the conference room, and the patrol team accompanied him until they escorted the protagonist into the main lair.
Xiaoqing II was taken to a temporary location by the patrol to stay behind.
The protagonist came to the conference room, and several strong soldier ants at the door let the protagonist in. A meeting was being held inside. All the male ants lowered their heads and hung their tentacles on the white cobblestones on the ground. They were concentrating on exchanging information through the ground. Even when the protagonist came in, the nearest kings all Nothing happens.
The protagonist also lowered his tentacles and joined the group chat.
As a result, after listening for a while, the protagonist’s face turned dark.
What everyone is discussing is about the protagonist, or to be precise, about dividing the protagonist's "legacy".
The cause of the incident was that the protagonist was late and did not attend the meeting related to the wedding ceremony in time. Then after discussion at the King's Meeting, everyone thought that the protagonist might have died like the King of the West.
Although after the beginning of spring, the messenger from the main nest and the messenger sent by the police king all got in touch with the protagonist, proving that at least at that time the protagonist was still "alive".
However, no king will delay the convening order of the king's meeting issued by the main nest. Therefore, if the protagonist does not arrive as scheduled, it is possible that something bad happened to him.
For example, misfortunes may occur on the road - if the protagonist happens to catch a rainstorm or a fierce insect attack in the wild when he sets out, this is possible.
In addition, through the returned messenger, the main nest also learned that the Angel King's Legion had established a "bridgehead" in the territory of the Paving Ant Barbarians on the north bank of the river, and maintained the connection between the two places through a suspended rope bridge.
Then the pavement ant barbarian army may defeat the "bridgehead" defenders, and then threaten the territory of the big-headed ant kingdom through the suspended rope bridge in seasons other than winter.
The protagonist and his legions who bear the brunt of the attack may die in battle just like the Western King.
It can only be said that the King's Conference only made the most reasonable analysis based on their intelligence. The second batch of messengers they sent to confirm the situation of "Linshui City" and "Bridgehead" have not yet arrived on the way. The King's Conference can only Analysis based on old intelligence.
The template they based their analysis on was still the traditional behavior pattern of the king. They believed that the protagonist, like them, would attach great importance to the king's meeting and would rush back to the main nest to participate at all costs. Therefore, if the protagonist did not arrive on time, there must have been an accident, or he may have even died.
Now that this judgment has been made, the King's Council will then comprehensively consider a series of changes and the impact on this year's war based on the worst case scenario - the death of the protagonist.
Ants are a very pragmatic race. Due to the large number of their own kind, they also extremely ignore the rights and interests of individuals.
The King of the West has died, and the protagonist will feel psychologically uncomfortable. This is also based on human emotional patterns.
As for the other kings, they will not feel sad at all after the death of their colleague. They only need to consider who should be replaced in the king's meeting and how to allocate the resources left by the Western king, and they have already implemented it.
Similarly, the whereabouts of the protagonist are now unknown, and the King's Council now infers that the protagonist may have died, so a plan must be formulated based on this situation. The most important thing is how to divide the protagonist's "legacy" and how to continue to win this year's battle efficiently without the protagonist. war.
What the protagonist hears is this topic that is difficult for him to accept psychologically. Although the premise of this topic is to confirm his death, if he does not die, the plan will be invalid.
According to the noisy decision finally made at the king's meeting, the oldest and most senior king among the kings will receive the troops and resources left by the protagonist in "Dongyang City". If the "Linshui City" and "Bridgehead" areas have not been captured, the second to fifth kings ranked in order of seniority will each receive part of the military strength of the Divine Envoy King's legion in this area.
The plan formulated by the King's Council is very rough, because the King's Council still doesn't know how many resources and military power the protagonist has. However, the powerful fighting power of the God Envoy King's legion under the protagonist's command has spread throughout the king's meeting, so the oldest kings have spoken out and want to seize these benefits.
During this time, the protagonist kept his face dark and said nothing, quietly watching the performances of the kings. What the kings think is a matter of course is extremely ugly to the protagonist. When he fought bloody battles on the winter front, these kings were still huddled in the safety and warmth of the rear, and now they actually want to divide everything he has.
The protagonist kept the information silent, so the kings who were focused on the meeting did not realize that the object of their discussion had arrived at the scene.
After discussing carving up the protagonist's troops, the topic suddenly came to some shocking "measures" to retain the protagonist.
Although the protagonist's series of changes in "Dongyang City" were carried out without telling the main nest, he has established his authority in "Dongyang City" and other places, forming a de facto independent small kingdom.
However, there is no airtight wall in the world, and this sentence also applies to ants.
Ants from the secondary nest near "East Yang City" will occasionally enter the territory of "East Yang City", and messengers sent by the main nest to communicate will also enter "East Yang City". Even if these ants can only access a small part of the information in "Dongyang City", it does not prevent them from spreading this information.
In short, all the kings already know that some different practices are being implemented in "Dongyang City" that are different from the traditional ones. Many of these measures make the powerful conservatives feel very uncomfortable.
