Looking up, he could vaguely see some huge figures moving towards him in the south. "White Spot" thought to himself, that must be the enemy's beetle troops.
The Pavement Ant Empire Army also has beetle troops, which are the elite among the elite. "White Point" subconsciously compared the combat effectiveness of the enemy's beetle troops to that of its own beetle troops, which is obviously invincible.
Therefore, he decisively decided to leave a small number of legion infantry behind to supervise the gathering of more than a hundred fire ants and their slave ant warriors. He retreated with a large force. Later, "White Point" was very proud of his decisiveness this time.
"White Point" led the troops closer to the legion behind them. Although he resented the bossy behavior of other male ants with equal status, it was still important to escape. On this point, "White Point" was still very conscientious.
This is a planned surprise attack by the God Envoy King's Army, with the intention of paving the way for the Ant Empire Army to be caught off guard and eat one part of it, thus giving a good start to the subsequent defensive battle and also shocking the enemy!
"White Point" and its legions were the unlucky victims of this raid, but "White Point"'s troops were the least damaged.
After retreating not far back, "White Point" saw that the legion of the old male ants had been surrounded by the warriors of the God's Envoy King who had circled here. The dense and turbulent figures of the Warriors of the God's Envoy King made "White Point" subconsciously feeling scared.
The friendly forces have been surrounded, the road they came from has been cut off, and the life-and-death problem of where to go is placed in front of "White Point".
Despite this shortcoming, "White Point" was still very decisive. He led his troops and took advantage of the opportunity before the God's Envoy King warriors came to attack him. He gave up the unrealistic idea of going forward to rescue his fellow tribesmen and led his troops. The troops climbed up the slope where there were no enemies and escaped by taking a detour.
He and his men retreated so resolutely that even the tanks and infantry of the God's Envoy Army could not catch up. The former was blocked by the enemy's rear troops for a short while, while the latter attacked another enemy legion with all its strength.
Only the Flying Knight troops concentrated their forces, and after defeating the small number of "Mosquito" troops in this local airspace, they dropped some fire bombs and slings at the fleeing "White Point" Legion, killing very few enemy soldiers.

"White Point" ran all the way back to the Count's main formation. The high-speed running made him feel a little exhausted and his body was also a little hot.
But he was also lucky. The army suffered very little losses, that is, the two small teams sent to break up the rear failed to come back. The large army safely avoided the enemy's pursuit.
This battle with the Ant Alliance was completely different from the war that "White Point" had imagined before. He never thought that the enemy would dare to attack. Shouldn't the enemy be hiding in the lair and trembling, waiting for the imperial army to massacre? ! ?
The military stories he had heard before were all about how the Imperial Army was invincible and how the enemy was invincible.
But the reality seems to be different!
The Count's main formation learned of the previous incident, and the Count himself never thought that "White Spot" and the others escaped like this. He was busy mobilizing his troops and generals to fight.
Soon, the troops of 12 legions were mobilized and sent to the front line to support. The "White Point" legion was also among them, and as guide troops who were familiar with the terrain there, they were ordered to go at the forefront.
"White Point" felt that his six limbs were a little weak. He must have been running too fast just now and was a little exhausted. But he could not disobey the count's order, and reluctantly led the troops to advance again along the same road they had taken before setting off.
The battle site was not far from the count's main formation. About ten minutes later, "White Point" and the army behind arrived at the battlefield.
What relieved White Point was that the enemy had withdrawn.
But what made him tremble was the tragic situation on the battlefield.
The surprise battle just now was extremely short, but the ground was littered with the corpses of dead pavement ant warriors. "Bai Dian" never thought that so many soldiers could be killed at the same time in such a short period of time.
The corpses of ordinary soldiers did not make "White Spot" feel the same way, until he searched around among the corpses and saw the body of the old male ant that he had hated. Now "he" was lifeless, his severed head fell in front of his body, his pair of compound eyes were dull, one of his antennae was broken, and he looked pitiful.
"White Spot" stared blankly at the head and the compound eyes above. His body was reflected in the compound eyes. This body and the head on it were the same as the body and head of the old male ant that died on the ground. Exactly the same!
"White Spot" was in a daze, as if he was lying on the ground with his body and head separated, and the old male ant was looking at him blankly. For a moment, he didn't know whether he was the "white spot" or the corpse on the ground, or whether he was still alive...
If the guards around him hadn't used their tentacles to ask for instructions, I'm afraid "White Spot" would have been stuck in a strange fantasy and couldn't extricate himself!
"Bai Dian" came back to his senses and became even more palpitating! The battle just now lasted no more than ten or twenty minutes, and the enemy wiped out an entire legion and also killed a baron.
There is not a single enemy corpse on the ground, and if you go further you can only find the corpses of pavement ants, fire ants, and slave ants. If the enemy is not unscathed, it can only mean that after killing all our soldiers, the enemy still has time to clean the battlefield and take the corpses of their soldiers back for burial...
The more "White Point" thought about it, the more terrifying he felt. At this time, the enemy had disappeared. He hurriedly led his troops back. The other troops hesitated for a while, and most of them stayed where they were. There were also two legions following "White Point". Go back.
The count has received the report from the front line and is furious.
"White Point" who returned without receiving orders was angered, and his share of "Holy Juice" was suspended by the Count for 6 days. It's not that he feels bad, since he is on the battlefield now and the "Holy Juice" has not been transported. If you can return to the army victoriously, you will definitely get more rewards, so there is nothing to worry about.
What if we were defeated? The "white spot" suddenly trembled. When had the empire ever been defeated... But... if... if anything happens, then as long as you can go back alive, it doesn't matter if you skip drinking the "holy juice" for a few days!
The count's angry punishment was far more than just reducing the "holy juice". He sent the other two legions that retreated without permission after the "white spot" to the outflanking troops, no longer serving as the forward.
The other army commanders all sighed, feeling insulted. The outflanking troops were all vassal ants, so how could the forward troops have a high status?
"Bai Dot" was a little relieved. The battle just now and the tragic death of the old male ant made him a little psychologically shaken when he faced the cruelty of war for the first time.
The roundabout troops are at least not as dangerous as the forward troops!
