After the trapped leaf-cutting ant army refused to break out, the protagonist felt helpless.
The current battlefield situation is extremely unfavorable for the leaf-cutter ant army. Although the surrounded 350,000-strong army can temporarily contain the red fire ant army in a defensive battle, they lack the necessary food and grass for long-term operations. The food and grass they have stored in advance can only support two days. Zhou, the leaf-cutting ant army commander did not hide this from "Xiaohua".
In other words, in two weeks at the earliest, the leaf-cutting ant army will be unsustainable, and the red fire ant army will occupy a strong position in the relations between the three countries, breaking the current balance.
Following this, the God Envoy King's army may face the full revenge of the Red Fire Ant Kingdom.
The specific time of revenge depends on when the red fire ant country takes away satisfactory results from the leaf-cutter ant country, and when they will turn their guns.
After all, the Angel King Legion has the honeydew and crow honey they crave, and the red fire ants will not give up these sweet resources.
The protagonist knows that he cannot sit back and watch the leaf-cutting ant army be annihilated, otherwise the God Envoy King's army will also die. He also asked "Little Flower" to go to the leaf-cutter ant country to pass on the information, hoping that the queen ant conference and female ant conference would be wiser and choose to let the troops break out and preserve their strength.
However, the leaf-cutting ants seemed to have a single-minded personality, which did not let the protagonist get what he wanted.
Representatives of the Leafcutter Ants thanked the Divine Envoy King Corps for the information provided. After the 8th, they received reports from some stragglers who had broken back and learned that a battle was taking place on the front line. However, in the past few days, the fire ant army has not launched an attack on the mainland, and the frontline troops have not sent messengers back. The scouts who went out from the mainland only discovered some enemy positions, but did not find anything wrong with their own side. Although the leaf cutter ants in the country were confused, they suffered from insufficient intelligence. In a state of ignorance.
After learning of the defeat on the front line, the final response plan offered by the Leafcutter Ant Nation was to entrust the Envoy King's Legion to pass orders to the besieged troops, asking them to hold on while the locals began to form new troops to prepare to support the rescue.
The decision made by the Leafcutter Ant Nation is not in line with the protagonist's wishes, because their plan to form a new army further draws away the few remaining ant hands that mine hematite, and the amount of iron ore imported by the Angel King's Legion Then it instantly dropped to less than one-tenth of its peak.
However, the Leafcutter Ant Nation rejected the breakout proposal proposed by the Envoy King’s Legion, leaving him helpless.
The protagonist even asked "Little Flower" to falsely pass on information once, telling her to lie to the besieged troops of the leaf-cutter ant army, saying that the queen ant conference would allow them to break out of the encirclement.
But unfortunately, this lie was discovered.
The female ant commander of the leaf-cutting ant army asked "Little Flower" to provide a complete scenario information package. The protagonist made a fake information package in advance in his mind and gave it to "Little Flower" just in case. The protagonist is confident that his fake information has never been discovered before, so he doesn't put any special effort into it.
But this time, the leafcutter ants saw through the lie.
In the information package, there is not only the specific content of the order, but if you dig deeper, there is also the appearance of the ant who conveyed the order, the surrounding environment, etc. This is all the information of a standard information department. The protagonist has covered everything, but there is no Carved with attention to detail.
Although the protagonist tried his best to recreate the scene based on the information provided by Xiaohua, he had never been there himself, so the background was inevitably rough. Just like the environmental background of a 3D game character is actually 256 colors, it is inevitable that there will be disharmony. The dedicated female leafcutter ant commanders quickly discovered the flaw - they had obviously known about the existence of lies before.
The leaf-cutting ant army immediately expelled the "little flowers" and expressed that they did not welcome the "liars". If this lone army was not able to contact the mainland, and they showed a deep hatred for the "liars", the protagonist would only be afraid of the leaf-cutting ants. The country wants to immediately sever diplomatic relations with itself and stop importing hematite.
The protagonist has made a mistake and has to think about the way out.
Looking at it now, if the remaining troops of the Leaf Cutter Ant Army are wiped out, perhaps the Leaf Cutter Ant Nation will not know that the God Envoy King Legion has tried to deceive them, and they can maintain bilateral relations, but the God Envoy King Legion will have to be alone in the future. Facing military pressure from the fire ant army.
If the leaf-cutting ant army is not eaten and successfully persists until the newly formed local reinforcements rescue the siege, then "Xiaohua"'s lie will no longer be concealed. Perhaps the God Envoy King's army will completely lose the leaf-cutting ant country as a quasi-partner, and The only source of hematite.
The protagonist can't figure out why the Leafcutter Ant Nation is so abhorred by lying, something that is so common in the human world and something that almost everyone does every day! Maybe this is the unique rule of the ant world!

On the 12th, the red fire ant army launched a full-scale attack on the besieged leaf-cutting ant army.
The short saplings that had just been transplanted could not provide any defensive bonus to the defenders. The leaf-cutter ant army had to fight desperately on the ground with the red fire ant army, which was better at ground combat.
Because of their large numbers, the defenders built huge, criss-crossing, densely packed underground camps under the besieged area, and the ground was also full of entrances and exits.
The flying knight looked down from the air and saw that the yellow ground was dotted with black holes and green saplings, really like a piece of dough sprinkled with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
When the fire ant army captured the first entrance and exit, the battle started simultaneously on the ground and underground.
The fire ant army's morale is high, and the leaf-cutting ant army is fighting for every inch of land. Every inch of land that changes hands is accompanied by the tragic scene of corpses covering the land.
The red fire ant army has launched a general offensive for two consecutive days. It has lost more than 30,000 people and eliminated more than 50,000 enemies. However, more than 80% of the positions are still in the hands of the leaf-cutting ant army.
The red fire ant army did not know that the leaf-cutter ant army did not have much rations. Otherwise, they would have easily won the victory in half a month just by surrounding them without attacking.
They just focused on attacking, exchanging the flesh and blood of soldiers for positions, and then pulled up, chopped up and discarded those damn saplings.
The leaf-cutting ant army was even more uncomfortable, losing one-seventh of its strength in two days, which was as fast as the food reserves were being depleted.
And as there are fewer and fewer surviving soldiers, the time that food can be sustained is lengthening.
Maybe the leaf-cutting ant army will be completely wiped out before the army rations are exhausted!

While the red fire ant army and the leaf-cutter ant army were fighting fiercely, the God Envoy King's army also launched a new military operation.
Recently, due to the rapid growth of the ant colony and the expansion of the territory, the Army of the Divine Envoy King has been running out of food. After the trade volume of honeydew iron ore dropped, although some of the honeydew-producing ant hands began to be allocated to the grain production industry, it was far from quenching the thirst.
Therefore, when the flying knights discovered a huge food resource "at their fingertips", the God Envoy King's army immediately dispatched!
