After the Divine Envoy King's Army actively shrank and gave up a large area of territory north of [Qingqiu City], the effective control range of the Divine Envoy King's Army has been reduced to [Qingqiu City] in the north, the southern hills in the south, the Great Lake in the east, and the Great Lakes in the west. An irregular trapezoidal area to [Moat City] and southwest to [Xinhuahua City].
In addition, there is an isolated territory and some garrison in the swamp area.
The area of this land is only equivalent to one-third of the heyday when the Divine Envoy King's Army was fully occupied on the south bank of the river. The ant's mouth has also been reduced by nearly half in the continuous wars and losses.
To be honest, after the river defense line collapsed together with the big banyan tree, the protagonist's confidence seemed to collapse with the huge "World Tree"-like banyan tree.
Just like after "Twilight of the Gods", the end has come.
Although he still maintained the majesty and determination of the God Envoy King in front of his subordinate male ants, encouraging his subordinates to actively prepare for war and overcome difficulties. But he himself didn't know how to win.
The Destroyers seem to be endless. No one knows their total number, and there is no way to estimate their strength. Moreover, new types of soldiers are constantly emerging among the Destroyers, and the huge threats make it difficult for the warriors of the God Envoy King to deal with them.
The most stable defense line of the river no longer exists, and the protagonist does not know how to withstand the attack of the powerful Destroyer like a tide.
Even if [Qingqiu City] is completely transformed into a fortress, can it withstand the Destroyer's attack? Even if it resists, how long can it last?
This is the last line of defense, but the protagonist doesn't even know how many enemies he needs to face or how long he needs to hold on.
Even if they can kill a large number of enemy troops here, can the Angel King's army counterattack? The Destroyers have completely occupied the north bank of the river, and also have a large rear area such as the mountainous area on the northern bank of the river. Their overall war potential is estimated to be much greater than that of the Envoy King's Legion, which is now shrinking into a corner.
But if even [Qingqiu City] is lost, where will the Divine Envoy King's army go?
From [Qingqiu City] to the south until [Dongyang City], there are no strong enough fortresses and steep terrain along the way.
Once [Dongyang City] and [Malachite City] also fall, or even fall into fierce fighting, then the copper weapons, ballistas, etc. that the Divine Envoy King's army highly relies on will be cut off. The enemy's legion of the Envoy King will be greatly weakened.
When that moment comes, even if the protagonist can escape with the ants into the southern hills and mountains or even swamp areas to resist, the copper smelting blast furnace in [Dongyang City] and the copper mine in [Malachite City] cannot be moved away. .
Having lost territory, weapons, and industrial production capacity, how long can the protagonist resist with his remaining soldiers and defeated generals?
The more the protagonist thinks about it, the more frustrated he becomes. He feels that the God of time-travel has abandoned him. There has never been an unlucky time-traveler who could time-travel into an ant, and there has never been an unlucky time-traveler who can't defeat another group of ants.
But I really can’t defeat the Destroyer now! This is a fact that is hard to accept but has to be faced.
Although the protagonist is still on the front line, supervising his subordinates to build defenses day and night, he is also self-supporting. No ant can understand his inner fear, and he has no one to talk to.
In the ant world, the failure of the group means the death of the individual. If the protagonist wants to survive, he must ensure the survival of the God Envoy King's army. Even if he is afraid, he has no way to retreat.
Survive, this idea that supported the protagonist through the pessimistic period when he had just traveled to become an ant, now supports him again and prevents him from sinking into depression.
Fortunately, the remaining defenders in the north bought a few days for the Divine Envoy King's army. Until April 20, the Destroyers did not cross [Liangmo City] and go south.
Taking advantage of this period, the massive [Qingqiu City] is undergoing a painful transformation, transforming from the unique core lair, political center, and economic center of the entire territory into a border fortress.
A large number of male ant eggs, young male ants, and male ant pupae were moved to [Dongyang City], which will be the new "capital" and a temporarily safe "capital".
In addition to the fire bomb sling workshop and the rope workshop, most of the workshops that have nothing to do with military industry, including pottery workshops, fermentation workshops, and textile workshops, have also been relocated. These are no longer needed in [Qingqiu City], which is about to become a battlefield. thing.
The nearby sub-nests that have begun to move will continue to deliver food together to [Qingqiu City], most of which are dried meat made from mealworms and fly maggots that were killed before they grew up.
The breeding farms in [Qingqiu City] are still operating normally. Once this place is surrounded and blocked, these breeding farms will be the most important source of food.
In addition to the necessary queens and worker ants, most of the ant colonies were also evacuated southward. Those left in [Qingqiu City] were combatable soldiers or auxiliary forces. The queen left some mainly to replenish the battle damage in time. Although it takes several months for an ant to hatch from an egg to a pupa, it can be replenished at least.
In order to consolidate the defense of [Qingqiu City], the protagonist massively expanded the army here. In addition to the previous 20 legions, 20 new legions were temporarily recruited. In addition, Lan Bofei's troops are overcoming difficulties and coming, [Qingqiu City] There will be 160,000 troops in Qiucheng], which will be the last main force of the Divine Envoy King's army.
Even after [Qingqiu City] lost a large number of worker ants and food sources, it could not sustain so many defenders for a long time just by storing food. But the protagonist is no longer worried. Once the battle starts, a large number of people will soon be reduced. There will be fewer mouths to eat. The corpses can also be used as new military rations, right? One decrease and one increase, food is not a big problem.
The entire [Qingqiu City] is also undergoing the largest-scale reconstruction in history. Not only has the underground structure been greatly changed, but it has also been reconstructed and constructed in full compliance with the needs of underground street fighting, and multiple defensive positions have been set up. Even the surface of the earth is unrecognizable.
The wide "sacred passage" had previously been transformed into one of the entrances and exits of the Flying Knights. At this time, part of it was also blocked. If necessary, the entire passage would be blocked to prevent the Destroyer from entering through this.
On the tall anthill hills, branches and tall stones inserted into the soil were used to set up a continuous protective net to prevent the destroyers from directly attacking the nests.
There are ballista positions set up at many commanding heights on the Anthill Hill, allowing you to shoot at enemies besieged from all sides without any blind spots.
Wide trenches are dug outside the anthill hills, the result of tens of thousands of ants working for several days. A wall was also built inside the trench.
[Dongyang City] has shipped all the ballistas, spare parts, and all ammunition, and a new ballista workshop and weapons workshop have been built in [Qingqiu City].
Now, there are as many as 32 ballistae in the entire nest. This is an unprecedented firepower density, but it is not much compared to the area that needs to be defended.
