The next day after receiving the protagonist's suggestion, Gun led an army, and thousands of worker ants accompanying him, and set out from "Linshui City" loaded with food, and chose a location ten minutes away from the entrance and exit of "Hunting Ground City". Build a base.

Ants are very good at building underground bases and choose sites carefully to avoid floods and unfavorable factors.

In addition, the location of this base is just close enough to "Hunting Ground City" to control the enemy's access to "Hunting Ground City", but not too close to respond to a sudden enemy attack.

The completed base is like a noose around the neck of "Hunting Ground City", and like a sharp blade against the throat of "Hunting Ground City".

The army provisions from "Linshui City" were transported into the base, which was enough to meet the needs of the army for three to five days. Subsequent support can also be obtained from "Linshui City" as needed to persist in long-term operations.

Subsequently, the Army of the Divine Envoy King, led by Gun, did not forcefully attack the "Hunting Ground City" again. Instead, they sent a large number of scouts to investigate nearby. Once they discovered the transport convoys of the old-fashioned King's army from other deputy nests, they immediately divided their forces to eliminate them.

After two days, the food seized was extremely rich, and not a single grass seed or dried meat entered the "Hunting Ground City".

The staid king in "Hunting Ground City" obviously noticed something unusual. The God Envoy King's minions did not attack, but none of the transport teams from other sub-nests came.

He sent a large number of messengers and scouts out to understand the situation on the ground.

But in front of the army of the God's Messenger King who was waiting in full formation, and faced with the fierce and skilled hunting ants, most of the messengers and scouts sent by these old-fashioned kings were killed, and a few fled back.

Based on the reports of a few ants who escaped, the Stiff King has been able to determine that it was the minions of the evil God Envoy King who were at work, causing the "Hunting Ground City" to lose its food supply.

In the afternoon of that day, a small group of the old-fashioned King's army rushed out of the "Hunting Ground City" and fought with the Angel King's army, but was quickly dispersed.

Gun once thought that the enemy troops were going to come out in large numbers. The only enemy who had just tentatively fought was the enemy's vanguard, so he gathered the army and prepared for it.

As a result, the old-fashioned King's army did not come out in full force as expected, but retreated underground again.

It was not until evening that a large number of messengers came out of the "Hunting Ground City", trying to break through and rush to their own secondary nest in the rear. The messengers were quickly killed and expelled.

This is the messenger that the old-fashioned king thought that the enemy troops had withdrawn due to the impending darkness, and sent out to contact the deputy nests of the friendly forces, hoping that these deputy nests would pay attention to the new movements of the God Envoy King's army.

The old-fashioned king was very surprised when he learned that the messengers had been blocked. He did not understand why it was getting so late and why the minions of the God Messenger King were not in a hurry to return. Are they planning to spend the night in the dangerous and cold wilderness? Generally speaking, unless there are special circumstances, the ant army will never do this.

The old-fashioned king then sent out small troops at regular intervals until it was completely dark. A series of contacts finally made the old-fashioned king realize that the enemy army was not ready to return to "Linshui City" and was fighting him outside "Hunting Ground City".

Knowing this result, the old-fashioned king was not discouraged. Although the food route has been cut off, the food stored in "Hunting Ground City" is still enough to last for more than a week, so there is no fear of food shortage for the time being.

As for the minions of the evil God King who "sleep in the open air", they will naturally lose their troops due to the cold and the fierce insects raging around the "Hunting Ground City", and he is happy to see the result.

From the beginning to the end, the old-fashioned king did not know that the God's Envoy King's army had built a base under his nose, and he spent long nights in a base that was as warm and comfortable as his lair.

This is all due to the strict battlefield interception by the hunting ant scouts. Thanks to their excellent eyesight, these hard-working scout warriors always go out to patrol the nest at dawn and return to the nest after dark. They never let go of an enemy ant that wants to leave the "Hunting Ground City" and achieve the goal of defeating the enemy on the battlefield. suppress.

Not only the staid king in "Hunting Ground City" didn't know that the enemy had built a base under his nose, but the sixteen sub-nests behind the staid king's faction also didn't know about the new trends of the God's Envoy King's army.

Although a large number of transport convoys were intercepted on the first day, due to the proper tactics of the God's Envoy Army, there were troops responsible for the attack, and there were also troops taking back roads to prevent the enemy from escaping. All these transport convoys were wiped out, and not a single one of them escaped to report the news. No.

In addition, the transportation teams of each sub-nest do not need to return. They all join the old-fashioned king on the spot after arriving at "Hunting Ground City".

Therefore, the deputy nests did not doubt his presence and continued to send transport teams to "send death" every day. Although some of the dominant male ants in the sub-nest were surprised that they didn't receive instructions from the old-fashioned king for two or three days, which was rare in the past, they didn't think much about it.

The old-fashioned king behaved very calmly. Apart from constantly sending out messengers to try to break out, he had no intention of uniting his army to fight, and he kept the "war-free card" high.

Gun, on the other hand, can't sit still. He has an impatient temper, and he also likes to fight face to face. This kind of "sitting battle" is not in line with his temper.

But the protagonist's suggestions are orders to him. Now he has no courage to disobey the protagonist's words and deeds, so he can only endure.

Anyway, the Legion of God's Envoy King is living a very prosperous life. In addition to a few combat missions, some of the Legion of God's Envoy King have even begun to organize training on the spot to allow new soldiers to adapt quickly to the legion.

The daily seizures of the Divine Envoy King's Legion are more than enough to supply military supplies. After all, this army only has more than 10,000 warriors, plus some beetles. The captured enemy supplies were the amount provided by each sub-nest to the more than 20,000 enemy fighters in "Hunting Ground City".

If we put all our efforts into consumption, the food reserves of the Divine Envoy King's legion will be increasing, but the enemy will be sitting on nothing. The longer it takes, the better it will be for our side.

——I am the dividing line——

When the battle situation near "Hunting Ground City" reached a stalemate and the two sides did not engage in large-scale fighting, the protagonist continued to sit in the main nest "Qingqiu City".

At this time, another army was expanding its territory near the main nest "Qingqiu City".

Lambori's fifth legion has been operating near the main nest recently. In addition to counterattacking the deputy nest armies of the old-fashioned king's faction who dared to send troops to attack the territory of the Angel King's legion, this legion also attacked some hostile and hostile forces close to the main nest. auxiliary nest.

The size of most sub-nests cannot withstand a single blow from the Divine Envoy King's army. These sub-nests are smaller in size, have not many male ants, and have few warriors. Although there is a unified enemy in each sub-nest - the evil Divine Envoy King, they lack unified command and cannot form a joint force, so they are easily defeated one by one.

But recently, Lambori has frequently intercepted some enemy messengers. Judging from the intercepted information packets, this situation has changed adversely.
