The protagonist was alerted after an attack on a fortress.
At that time, this fortress, which mainly housed veterans who had been injured and disabled in previous wars, actually thwarted the enemy's initial large-scale attack with its complete defense facilities.
The flying knights patrolling the air discovered something unusual about the fortress and immediately reported it to "Southern City".
The protagonist, who was currently stationed in "Southern City", immediately dispatched the third legion on hand to rush to support.
The reinforcements quickly repulsed the attackers from the indigenous ant-hunting tribe, killing hundreds of the enemies.
After post-war identification and identification, the protagonist came to the conclusion that the indigenous tribes had organized an unprecedentedly large joint force, and the killed indigenous tribes obviously came from many different tribes.
The protagonist immediately realizes the danger. After all, he and the main army cannot sit in "Southern City" for a long time. If the combined indigenous army attacks when the main force of the Angel King's army is absent, "Southern City" and its nearby territories will definitely be difficult to deal with. .
We must seize the opportunity now to crush the resistance, and quickly.
The protagonist knows that the battlefield on the north bank of the river has taken an unexpected turn. He will soon need to go north, and there is not much time left for him in the south.
So the flying knights went out in large numbers, and soon found the gathering place for the coalition forces of the indigenous ant-hunting tribes. From the air, the densely packed piles of ant-hunting ants were too obvious.
After supporting the fortress defenders, the Third Legion followed the guidance of the Flying Knight and launched a tentative offensive against the indigenous coalition. They found that the fighting spirit and combat power of the indigenous coalition were quite high. Although both sides suffered losses in the fierce battle, However, the enemy showed no intention of retreating.
The third legion temporarily withdrew, and the protagonist began to assemble the troops of all three legions in the fortress, and began to gather supplies to prepare for the decisive battle.
The flying knights began to conduct regular reconnaissance of the enemy's gathering place. However, one flying knight was lost during this investigation, which was beyond the protagonist's expectation.
The decisive battle begins soon. Not only are the indigenous coalition forces eager to fight because of food problems, but the protagonist also lacks time because of the need to go north.
In the decisive battle, the invincible Divine Envoy King's army did encounter some troubles.
Although the left and right wings quickly made progress by virtue of their strength, they almost defeated the enemy on the opposite side.
However, the concentrated attack of some tall indigenous hunting ants in the middle nearly broke through the defense line of the Divine Envoy King's army in the middle.
This is not only because the enemy is powerful, but also because the Divine Envoy King's army in the middle is actually divided into two parts, belonging to the second and third armies respectively. The enemy's assault route is located at the weak point of the junction of the two armies.
Fortunately, the last line of defense temporarily blocked the enemy and bought time for reinforcements.
The First Corps of the General Reserve, which was deployed in the rear, entered the battlefield and completely defeated the enemy's counterattack.
Subsequently, throughout the battlefield, the Divine Envoy King's army launched a counterattack, and the enemy had begun to retreat.
In the next few days, under the guidance of the Flying Knight, the Angel King's army pursued and fought fiercely along the valley. Not only did they eliminate a large number of scattered indigenous ant warriors, they also uprooted dozens of indigenous ant warriors along the way. A large number of ant eggs, young ants and ant pupae were seized from the camp of the fierce ant tribe.
The protagonist even captures a few queen ants.
But the protagonist's attempt to subdue the queen of the scythe-hunting ant like the black pearl failed. These queen ants, who were able to fight in ordinary times, resisted very resolutely and were captured only after being wounded. But they refused to surrender and showed great aggression.
The protagonist has no choice but to kill most of the ant queens, leaving only one ant queen. All six of her limbs and tentacles are cut off, her eyes are blinded, and she is imprisoned in the deepest prison cell of "Southern City" .
Big-headed ant workers will feed her every day to ensure that she does not starve to death. These big-headed ant workers will also bring hormones that stimulate egg production and apply them to her, and then take away the eggs that are laid.
The protagonist treats the queen ant as a living egg-laying machine. Once new female and male ant eggs are cultivated, the queen's mission and life will come to an end.
Although the cleanup work went smoothly, based on various intelligence, the protagonist knew that the resistance of the indigenous ant-hunting tribe in the southern hilly area had not been completely crushed this time.
According to the "confessions" of soldiers who were captured due to serious injuries - the protagonist has now cultivated a group of ants who specialize in "torture". They will cut off the six limbs and even the jaws of the enemies they are forced to confess, and sometimes even remove the target's limbs. The abdomen was also cut off in one piece.
Enemies who have been tortured to extract confessions will basically not survive for long. The purpose of the torturer is to make the opponent collapse in pain, and then use the tentacles to read the information in the brain of the enemy who has no defense.
According to the information obtained, there are more than 300 indigenous tribes who have united against the protagonist and the Angel King's army this time, and most of the tribes are not nearby, and some are even far away. Even most of the ant-hunting scythe warriors I have only heard of the depths of the hills.
It seems that it is unrealistic to completely wipe out all these tribes. The protagonist decides to change his recent combat plan and try his best to intercept and kill those ant-hunting warriors who are retreating from the battlefield and trying to return to their tribe.
As long as these most effective warriors are lost, the tribes that have resisted the protagonist will find it difficult to recover within a year or two and pose a threat to "Southern City" again. They may even lose in the territorial competition with their neighbors. Defeated and destroyed.
This plan was carried out to the letter, and the God Envoy King's army once again searched the valley that had been swept, and indeed eliminated many fish that had slipped through the net before.
In addition, the flying knights also made some discoveries - they found some signs of small-scale gatherings of scythe-hunting ants.
Although these sickle-hunting ants have strong counter-reconnaissance experience and know how to hide from sight from the air under the cover of vegetation, the flying knights still noticed this small group during their constant patrols.
They hid on the hill and successfully avoided several encirclement and suppression attacks by the Angel King's army who focused on searching the valley.
This small group often moves quickly from one hilltop to another at dawn or almost dark. At this time, the ground troops of the Divine Envoy King's Legion had either not yet set off or had already returned to their nests. Even if the flying knights discovered their traces, they would not be able to guide the ground troops to eliminate them.
This small group seems to be growing gradually. It should be that some scattered warriors of hunting sickle ants have been joining in. Now there are fifty or sixty of them.
In the past two days, they have become more courageous and have begun to engage in guerrilla warfare. From time to time they attack a small group of soldiers from the God's Envoy King's Legion who are performing missions.
The protagonist decides that this small group of enemies must be eliminated.
