In early autumn, the grass and trees are still green, but the heavy grass seeds have begun to quietly form on the ears.

The air from the north began to gradually drive away the warm airflow from the south, and the breeze brought a bit of coolness. The grass spikes are swaying in the wind, and the slender stems are like waists, swinging in an attractive arc.

At this time, on this land, under the beautiful scenery, a war is about to break out.

The King of Public Security stood on the top of the low hill, and a flying knight landed on the ground to accompany him.

From their point of view, what they could see was not only the rolling waves of grass in front of them, nor was they concerned about the swaying grass branches below them.

Just opposite them, countless dark ants began to emerge from the dense grass, quickly covering the surface with color.

After these ants came to the open space under the low hill, they paused briefly and began to adjust their somewhat messy formation.

After their formation was restored to complete, a large black army of pavement ant barbarians rolled forward like a black carpet, and rushed forward like a dark tide.

On the low hill, the army of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom, which was almost the same color as the ground, lined up in a circular formation and was waiting.

The black tide quickly hit the khaki water bank. The tide and the earth bank competed fiercely for space. Sometimes the tide overflowed into the water bank, and sometimes the water bank drove the tide back.

In this back-and-forth fight, corpses and wreckage were soon left on the ground.

Facing the most elite group in the Northern Expeditionary Army, the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army on the north bank of the river was in trouble.

Although King Floating Leaf originally reported the new and unique tactics of the big-headed ants to the king's meeting in the main nest of the pavement ant barbarians, and trained several legions to use restrained tactics.

However, those legions were all destroyed when they attacked the "bridgehead" where the Angel King's legions were stationed.

And with King Fuye surrendering to the protagonist, there is no king in the entire Paidao Ant Barbarian Kingdom who understands the Big-headed Ant so well, is familiar with its tactics, and understands its combat power.

Now, when most legions of the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army face the Big-headed Ant Kingdom Army for the first time, they are quite uncomfortable with the opponent's tactics of gathering ants together.

To be fair, the combat power of the warriors of the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army is equivalent to that of the worker ant warriors of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom Army. When these two types of warriors confront each other, the battlefield often falls into a long-term stalemate.

And when the pavement ant barbarian army managed to make a breakthrough on the stalemate front by relying on their numerical advantage, those damn soldier ants would always arrive in time.

Their physical strength is not compromised, and they can always easily kill the barbarian warriors of the paving ants who break in and seal the gap.

What troubles the commanders of the grassroots Pavement Ant Barbarian Army the most is that these concentrated soldier ants will never leave the cover of the formation.

They never take the initiative to pursue the retreating Pavement Ant barbarian warriors, and even when some astute Pavement Ant commanders feign retreat to induce the enemy to pursue them, they remain unmoved. This makes the pavement ants’ little plan useless.

In this way, the pavement ant barbarian army will not be able to annihilate the elite force of the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom in a short time.

With the reinforcements from all sides of this elite army of ants, the position of the troops under the command of the Public Security King was impregnable, and the tidal offensives of the pavement ant barbarian army were crushed and defeated again and again.

The sun has already crossed three-quarters of the height in the sky, and the sunlight is tilting and attenuating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Both warring parties knew that daylight hours were running out. In particular, there is not much time left for the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army.

This time, the Pavilion Ant Barbarian Army finally became ruthless, and the entire army swarmed forward. This time, they did not try to find the weak points of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom's army position through low-intensity tests, but launched a fierce attack across the board. This time, if the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army fails to achieve results, they will have no choice but to admit today's defeat.

The west wind was fierce and howling, and the blood on the ground gradually dyed the clouds in the southwest red. The reflected death under the red dust also made the sun hide its figure in fear.

In the end, the pavement ant barbarian army retreated unwillingly.

The public security king stood on a high place and directed the troops to pursue a short distance.

Today's battle was finally won, although it was just a miserable victory.

On the side of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom's army, 10% were killed and another 20% were injured. However, most of the injured can continue to serve after a short recuperation.

Even warriors with missing arms and legs are not uncommon among the general Big-headed Ant Kingdom legion. As long as there is no death, they must keep fighting until the end of this war.

On the side of the paving ant barbarian army, the losses were even greater.

The most disastrous loss was that when the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army retreated, they abandoned many wounded soldiers who were unable to move.

The Big-headed Ant Kingdom's army pursued and slaughtered these scattered wounded who were unable to resist.

In this way, the Pavement Ant Barbarian warriors who are able to escape are either healthy or have minor injuries that do not affect their movements. Seriously injured ones are equal to death.

In the end, during the pursuit, the Big-headed Ant Kingdom's army killed as many enemies as they did on the battlefield.

After a brief pursuit, the Public Security King gathered his troops again, and they had achieved their battle goal.

According to the Flying Knight's report, the Pavement Ant barbarian army on the front line has removed the siege of the deputy nest and General King D's troops, and has begun to retreat early.

This victory of the Public Security King's army forced the Pavement Ant Barbarian Army to make a large circle back to their starting base. They had to hit the road in advance in order to return before dark.

In this way, the King's Department of Public Security actually played the role of encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao.

After confirming that the enemy troops had taken a detour and returned and had no intention of attacking, the Public Security King began to command the troops to clean up the battlefield.

Except for the scout troops on guard at the periphery, all the troops began to clean up the battlefield. They clamped the corpses of both the enemy and ourselves in their jaws. If the corpse was incomplete, they would clamp the trunk or head and abandon the joints and limbs.

The corpses of these enemy and our warriors can also be used as food. With the Big-headed Ant Kingdom's army currently short of food, these corpses are particularly important. Perhaps this is the key to supporting subsequent defensive operations.

And not every battle has the opportunity to collect these corpses as military rations. The defeated side is eager to retreat to preserve its vitality and has no time to clean up the battlefield.

In this battle, the Big-headed Ant Kingdom's army had a slight victory, but the frontline commanders had a deep understanding of the enemy's strength and were not optimistic about the future direction of the war.

At this time, the prudent commander must find ways to strengthen Party B's strength little by little without being careless at all.
