Fifty bee flying knights, in batches of ten, continuously took off from the base in the ant mound, formed small teams and rushed into the sky, and soon fought with the enemies in the sky.
At the beginning, when the parasitic air force encountered an attack, a small number of parasitic dragonflies were hugged by the bees before they could react, and then fell to the ground because they were unable to bear the weight and lost their balance.
This is a common tactic used by bee flying knights, because the jaws of bees are not strong enough to kill enemy beasts in the air in a short time. When facing many enemies, in order to avoid backlash, flying knights prefer to command their mounts to The enemy was dragged into the ground battle, and the ground troops assisted in quickly killing the enemy war beasts in Lijiang.
After forcing several parasitic dragonflies to land, the troops who had been passively beaten on the ground quickly gathered up, surrounded the parasitic dragonflies, bit off their wings first, and then quickly cut their heads from the neck to kill all the parasitic bacteria. He avenged the passive beating he received before.
But the good times didn't last long. Soon, other war beasts from the parasitic air force reacted. Dragonflies, inherently agile insects with excellent eyesight, quickly launched a counterattack.
Dragonflies are indeed the masters of the air. Even if they are alone, they are not timid when facing a team of ten bees. These parasitic dragonflies will climb to altitude and then dive, using their height and speed advantages to try to break up the formation of the bee team, and they also repeatedly try to catch A bee comes to challenge.
This tactic is exactly the same as the parasitic dragonfly's tactics against the God-Herald King warriors on the ground, but it is more flexible in the air. At least the parasitic dragonfly does not need to worry about hitting the ground and does not slow down before the collision.
Bees are smaller and would definitely suffer if they collided with each other. The flying knights had to control their mounts to maintain a tight formation while avoiding the swoop of parasitic dragonflies at any time.
If there were only one or two parasitic dragonflies, the flying bee knights could still deal with it, but as more and more parasitic dragonflies gathered around them, the flying bee knights began to struggle to cope.
I saw countless dragonflies flying up and down in the blue sky, drawing perfect arc-shaped trajectories. These trajectories were like full-moon scimitars, splitting the formations of the bees, sealing the paths of the flying knights, and blocking the sky. of space chopped up.
Soon, a small team of ten bees were completely washed away. The surrounding parasitic dragonflies and parasitic damselflies were like sharks that smelled blood. They immediately gave up on their opponents and gathered around them, trying to hunt them down. The lonely bee flying knights.
The bee flying knights also realized the danger and tried to get together again, just like a school of fish forming a fish pillar to protect themselves from predators.
But the war beasts of the parasitic air force did not give them this chance. The parasitic dragonflies quickly bit the solitary bees from the air and killed them while hovering in the air - compared to the chewing and sucking mouthparts of bees. , the dragonfly's jaws are as powerful as a killer, and can kill bees in a few seconds.
The scattered flying knights desperately used the slings and stone-tipped lances on hand to fight back, but with little effect. Even if they broke the compound eyes of the parasitic dragonfly, these two weapons were not enough to kill the opponent.
Soon, the ten bee flying knights who were scattered were all wiped out, and most of the flying knights above were also killed together. Only two clever flying knights untied the safety rope the moment their mounts were bitten, and fell from the air. But only one flying knight managed to land on the ground and was protected by the Army. The other was caught by a parasitic damselfly while falling in the air, and quickly disappeared into its bloody mouth.
When ten scattered bee flying knights were massacred, the flying knights of the other four teams tried to rescue them. However, facing countless flying parasitic beasts, these flying knights did not dare to offend and rush in. They could only Attack the parasitic beast at the edge, trying to attract the enemy's attention.
But until the friendly forces were destroyed and the enemy's air power once again focused its attention on the other bee flying knights, the air force of the God's Envoy Army had only killed a total of eight parasitic dragonflies, and the results of the battle were not as great as their own losses.
As the parasitic air force shifted its target, the remaining bee flying knights also began to feel threatened. At this time, they were in a very unfavorable situation. Both their numbers and their individual combat effectiveness were inferior to the parasitic dragonflies opposite.
In their training, the Bee Flying Knights did not have the discipline or experience to fight with large groups of enemy air forces. Because the protagonist who originally formulated the flying tactics for the flying knights did not have much experience in aerial combat. What he could draw from was his own flying experience and some reference materials from the human world.
Therefore, it equipped the bee flying knights with slings and lances, but both weapons were of little effect.
The sling cannot be rotated and thrown when flying at high speed. The flying knights just throw it behind them, hoping that it will spin and fall on its own under the action of gravity and inertia, and have a chance to entangle the wings of low-altitude enemies.
As for the lances, the current bee flying knights have not received enough training at all, so that they can attack from the front like the medieval knights and pick the enemy to death with lances.
When the bee flying knights fight, they rely more on the combat effectiveness of their mounts. The bees' jaws and tail needles are the best weapons. However, the chewing and sucking mouthparts of bees are not sharp, and the tail needle cannot be used easily. Once the bee mount is used, the bee itself will die quickly.
Therefore, facing hundreds of enemies, the Bee Flying Knights fell into a passive position and were at their wits' end. Even the protagonist had no choice. In fact, even if the protagonist has a way, he cannot contact his flying subordinates.
Bees instinctively lower their altitude or try to escape back to their nests. This is their subconscious behavior when encountering a strong enemy. Even the flying knights try to make them fly high again and ignore them.
The protagonist can only ask the ground troops to throw rocks at the dense enemy areas in the air to interfere and cover the retreat of the Bee Flying Knights.
Soon, after a small team escaped back to the anthill, other bee flying knights also broke through the obstacles and escaped back at a certain cost.
After an air battle, the Bee Flying Knights lost thirteen bees and eleven Flying Knights were killed, resulting in heavy losses. The enemy lost eight parasitic dragonflies, but their combat power was not lost.
At this time, the parasitic air force once again turned its attention to the Army of the God's Envoy Army, which lacked air defense capabilities, and the parasitic war beasts in the water also began to fire water cannons at the bridgehead. Although it did not pose much of a threat due to the height, the large group of parasitic beasts Ants and land parasitic war beasts are also approaching quickly.
The one thousand Divine Envoy King warriors on the front line are facing a three-way attack from the enemy by water, air and water. The situation is extremely critical!
