I’m quite busy today, so I’ll be updating late.
——I am the dividing line——
The protagonist was indeed shocked when he learned that the enemy suddenly appeared in the hinterland of the territory and had captured [Liangmo City].
He showed a map of the south bank of the river in his mind. After thinking about it for a while, he quickly understood where the enemy came from.
It was the swamp jungle that was obviously impenetrable in the eyes of the big-headed ants. Although he had never been here, he had only looked at it from a distance, but he subconsciously regarded it as a natural barrier like a big river or a mountain. There was no trace of it at all. I considered that this might become a thoroughfare.
But the Destroyers crossed here unexpectedly, even avoiding the detection of the Flying Knights, and reached the almost undefended hinterland.
The effect of this surprise attack was no less than the shock it caused to the Roman Republic when Hannibal crossed the Alps and suddenly appeared in northern Italy.
For a time, the main nest [Qingqiu City] and [Linshui City] were under the threat of enemy troops.
The main nest [Qingqiu City] is the core on the south bank of the river. It is surrounded by numerous secondary nests and dense ant colonies. It is the most important economic center and food production area. The protagonist has been heavily defending [Trench City] and [Sitong City] in order to prevent the enemy from entering the core area.
[Linshui City] is the transportation hub and defense core on both sides of the river. It is also the rear support for the [Bridgehead] on the north bank of the river. Once it falls, the enemy will continue to kill towards the south bank of the river.
Both of these places are very important and cannot be missed.
Fortunately, the protagonist had a backup plan back then. After noticing that a main force of Destroyers was missing, he left 20 legions of troops in the main nest [Qingqiu City] to respond, including the first-class main force such as the 1st legion. , and many veteran regiments, this unit has a very strong combat effectiveness.
The protagonist immediately asked the flying knight to send an order to the troops in the main nest [Qingqiu City] to prepare for an attack immediately. They must be dispatched as soon as possible to prevent the enemy from continuing to invade.
——I am the dividing line——
The protagonist looks towards the [Twisting Flower City] where the fierce battle is taking place, where the war has reached a fever pitch.
Within the wall, the earth seemed to have experienced the ravages of monsters, the eruption of volcanoes, and the baptism of meteorites. There were messes and potholes everywhere.
The entire lair has lost its structure, and the ground is full of holes. The warriors of the God's Envoy King persevered to launch attacks from any entrance, and the Destroyers, who were no longer in danger of being defended, could no longer hold on due to the continuous reduction of the area they occupied. They continued to organize small-scale counterattacks and killed on the ground from time to time. , entangled with the warriors of the God's Envoy King.
The enemy could not hold on for two more days if they continued to resist, but it was in these last two days that the protagonist had to swallow the bitter pill of the fall of [Liangmo City].
You must not give up here, otherwise the time spent and the troops lost will be wasted.
But [Liangmo City] is more important. Only 20 legions do not have much advantage against three to five thousand destroyers.
The protagonist thought about it and made a decision. He ordered the entire army to attack in advance and make sure to end the battle in [Spiritual Flower City] as soon as possible. Then the army was handed over to the command of Lan Bofei. After a short rest, he continued to recover [Stone Pillar City] and other places.
The protagonist, on the other hand, is planning to fly back to [Qingqiu City] immediately after conquering [Swish Flower City] to command the war on the northern front.
That night, the soldiers of the God's Envoy King braved the cold night to continue their attack. At this time, blasting was useless. The ground was full of soldiers of the God's Envoy King who had gathered together. They entered the passage one by one without retreating. Attacks were launched simultaneously on countless roads.
With this kind of attack method, when faced with a Destroyer with a strong individual combat capability, it is almost like using up your life to drain the enemy's energy, trying to squeeze into a gap and then take a small bite on the enemy's thick carapace.
The protagonist is indeed anxious and cruel now.
In just half a night, three legions had been filled into the battlefield like a black hole of ants. Thousands of soldiers never came out of the ground again, and they never saw the sunshine of the next day.
Team after team filled in, and legion after legion came in as reinforcements.
All the soldiers were like lining up to be tortured, knowing that there would be death or life in the road ahead. When all the warriors were dead, the originally timid male ant captain did not retreat, staring at the jaws of the Destroyer as if he were dead.
This was the most brutal war of attrition that the Divine Envoy King's Army had ever experienced.
When the sky gradually became brighter and the fourth and fifth legions pressed forward, the protagonist finally got the news.
After a continuous day and night of fierce attacks, the God's Envoy King's army regained [Swiveling Flower City] at a huge cost.
In this battle, the Legion of the God's Envoy destroyed two thousand Destroyers, and its own losses were as high as eighteen thousand. There were also more than two thousand injured, not only due to hypothermia and frostbite at night. A total of five legions were completely lost.
In addition, [Xuanhuahuacheng] was also razed to the ground, and Lan Bofei, who took over the command, had to build a new [New Xuanhuahuacheng] based on the besieged camp, completely abandoning the old city.
The army that had gone through a hard battle needed a period of rest. At the same time, because the siege was too brutal, the entire nest was destroyed in the explosions and fighting, and the army of the God Envoy King did not capture the much-needed food.
Before launching the next battle, Rambo Fei's troops need to wait for the arrival of new food from the rear. Now they can only rely on frugal food and hunting nearby to barely supply the troops.
The protagonist ignored the southern battlefield. After learning that [Xuanhuahua City] was conquered, he flew back to [Qingqiu City] at dawn. The Imperial Guard team also set off from the ground carrying maces and expected to return in three or four days. .
Anyway, in the southern theater, the Destroyers have lost their main force, leaving only a few hundred Destroyers scattered in secondary nests. Rambo Fei's army still has more than 60,000 troops, which is enough to wipe out the enemy.
If it weren't for the lack of food that made it difficult for the army to move on a large scale, the protagonist would have wanted to transfer half of the troops to the northern battlefield.
——I am the dividing line——
The protagonist arrived at the main nest [Qingqiu City] early on April 16th and immediately held a pre-war meeting in the conference room.
The flying knights reported that after the Destroyers captured [Liangmo City] yesterday, they did not launch a new offensive. This is good news, and it gives the Divine Envoy King's army time to respond.
The protagonist is afraid that the enemy will have a time lag and have poisoned a large territory before the God Envoy King's army can react.
In addition, the [Bridgehead] on the north bank of the river reported that the enemy began a large-scale attack yesterday, and the defenders had to abandon their ground defense lines and move to underground defense.
The enemy's offensives in the two places seem to be echoing each other, and the cooperation is very tacit.
But as long as the [Bridgehead] and [Linshui City] are not lost, no matter how much the enemy cooperates, they will not be able to support them to the south bank of the river!
