The entry of the Sixth Army Reserve was the beginning of the collapse of the King's Council Army.

As a new member of the Angel King's Legion, the Sixth Legion was established not long ago, but it was organized according to the traditional field army. Moreover, the number of teams in the Angel King's Legion was larger than the general establishment of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom, so they were transferred The sixth legion, which has more than a portion of its strength, has more soldiers than a complete legion of the King's Council Army.

The soldiers of the Sixth Legion entered the battlefield in a neat horizontal formation, and because the King's Council Army wanted to surround and attack the beetle squads of the God's Envoy King's Legion, which were all fighting in their respective formations, they consciously dispersed into groups of several squads. , also fell into dispersion.

Under the ebb and flow of one another, the Sixth Army formed a fist and struck hard at the scattered lines of the King's Council Army, driving the defeated King's Council Army northward from south to north.

The sudden blow panicked the commanders of the King's Council Army. Although many worker ants and soldier ants who had lost their command were still resisting instinctively, some male ants who were new to the battlefield were retreating with their guards.

The retreat of individual male ants caused panic among more commanders in the rear formation. Since the communication system was no longer functioning, some commanders of the King's Council Army who were still besieging the beetles in the rear formation did not know why and retreated in speculation and panic.

The Beetle Legion finally regained its freedom, and Gun gathered the Beetles again. Fortunately, although the fierce fighting just caused the casualties of hundreds of soldiers, the Beetles did not reduce their numbers.

After resting, the Beetle Legion began to attack again. This time they did not need to attack the enemy's fortified and thick defense line, but chased and fled all the way.

Accompanying infantry and field infantry of the Sixth Army followed on both sides and behind. After being reinforced by the Sixth Army, the Beetle Legion no longer feared a massive counterattack by the enemy.

In fact, the King's Council Army was no longer able to organize a counterattack.

The protagonist and Gun both witnessed the performance of the Beetle Legion in full. Although it was remarkable, the Beetle Legion also exposed its weakness of insufficient endurance. When it came to a standstill, it urgently needed the cover of the infantry.

The organization and number of soldiers organized in a single Beetle Legion are not enough to complete this task. The Beetle Legion also needs the cover of other legions during operations.

Just like in the human world, we must pay attention to the coordination of infantry and tanks, infantry and artillery, and air-ground coordination. Any single arm has its weaknesses and must cooperate with other arms to exert complete combat effectiveness.

Today's battle gave the protagonist and Gun a deeper understanding of how to use the Beetle Legion and how to formulate corresponding tactics.

——I am the dividing line——

The old-fashioned king still didn't give up.

Although he is the opponent and political enemy of the protagonist, and although he is a stubborn conservative, the old-fashioned king still has his advantages. Another meaning of stubbornness is persistence.

The defeat in the middle occurred under his eyes, and broken troops on the left and right continued to flee to the front.

The whole situation is very serious for the King's Council Army. The old-fashioned king was still fulfilling his duties. He took in the defeated troops. He talked to the commanders of the squads who had escaped one by one, and encouraged these young commanders to continue fighting.

The combative nature of ants was inspired by him, and those commanders who had previously fled or were dragged here by the defeated army for unknown reasons regained their confidence in fighting.

The old-fashioned king quickly took in more than thirty squads, organized the scattered broken troops into those that were not full, and once again gathered about a legion of soldiers.

The old-fashioned king no longer stayed in his main formation high on the vegetation this time. He took his personal guard squad to join the counterattack team and personally led the last troops to launch a counterattack in the middle.

This is the final swan song of the King’s Council Army!

——I am the dividing line——

The Legion of God's Envoy King is cleaning the battlefield.

The entire gravel ground was covered with the bodies of tens of thousands of big-headed ants, including worker ants, soldier ants, and male ants.

During their lifetime, these corpses belonged to the Divine Envoy King's Army or the King's Council Army. They had the same racial scent but different lair scents. Just because of the different smells of less than 5%, the two groups of armies are fighting to the death here.

Now, the once heroic warrior has turned into a corpse, and the corpse secretes grease and smell. The strong smell that symbolizes death has dispelled the smell of life. Even the soldiers who collected the corpse couldn't tell whether the corpse belonged to the Divine Envoy King's Army or the King's Council Army.

The soldiers of the God's Envoy King's Legion gathered together the corpses of enemies and friends and buried them hastily, which was a small consolation for the heroic battles of both sides.

The protagonist does not know where the body of his opponent, the old-fashioned king, is. From a few dazed and captured worker ants, the protagonist knows who his opponent is.

There are quite a few worker ants. After all, after the battle, the odors on the ants were somewhat confused, and the original odor difference of only 5% became more similar.

After losing their commanders, some warriors of the King's Council Army became overwhelmed and stopped attacking those "common people".

The protagonist did not go on a killing spree, but collected these ants.

However, none of the male ants in the King's Conference camp surrendered. Since the retreat was cut off by the fourth and fifth legions, these male ants and their personal guards fought until the last moment.

Even the male ants who entered the battlefield for the first time had the pride of belonging to the main nest and refused the request of the messenger sent by the protagonist at the end to surrender.

The old-fashioned king may have been killed in the last counterattack. His last piece of legion quickly collapsed when faced with the assault of the beetles and the advance of the infantry of the Angel King's legion. Even the body was thrown away in an unknown corner.

But the commanders of the King's Conference camp he brought out told the protagonist their glory and pride with their lives.

It took a while to clean up the battlefield, and the protagonist also received a battle damage report. A total of more than 300 soldiers of the God's Envoy King's legion were killed or injured, more than 10,000 enemy troops were eliminated, and 3,000 to 4,000 ants were collected. The battle loss ratio was quite impressive.

Looking up at the sun, the protagonist knows that there are still a few hours until the sun sets. There was still plenty of time, and the undefended main nest "Qingqiu City" had already opened its arms to him.

The protagonist personally led the fourth legion to set off first. This legion participated in fewer battles, suffered minor losses, and had plenty of physical strength. The other legions followed closely, marching towards the nearby "Qingqiu City".

The towering hill castle of "Qingqiu City" seems to be about to change its flag.

Not to mention the series of stories that happened in "Qingqiu City", our eyes returned to the gravel battlefield.

In the loose soil pit where the corpse was buried, the gravel on the surface moved, and a male ant that had been buried as a corpse because it had fainted crawled out.

This is the old-fashioned king!
