In the battle just now, the enemy's worker ants showed great attack power, which made both the Viscount and "White Dot" notice their weapons.
A shiny, sharp weapon set on the jaw, it is the unique iron jaw knife of the Legion of the Angel King.
The highest commander of the Rangers, the Viscount, had more information. He knew that during the last battle, there was sporadic information about this weapon, but it did not receive special attention. Ants are generally insensitive to new weapons and new technologies, unless they have suffered a big loss, and this time is no exception.
This battle was the first time that the Viscount's troops came into direct contact with this weapon. After discovering that his heavy casualties were causally related to this weapon, the Viscount, who had suffered a lot, finally started to look squarely at the iron jaw knife.
"White Dot" touched this shiny weapon with his tentacles. This weapon seemed to have a fatal attraction for him, making him reluctant to leave for a long time.
On the other side, the Viscount has ordered his subordinates to try to remove the jaw knife from the enemy's corpse. He does not intend to equip his subordinates immediately, but wants to send it back to the Duke for his analysis and judgment.
From a visual inspection, the jaws of Big-headed Ant workers are about the same size as those of Pavement Ant warriors. If the invincible Imperial Army were also equipped with this weapon, it might be like adding a thorn to the mantis.
The Viscount knew that in the past, only the Guards directly controlled by the Three Kings and Six Kings in the Imperial Army were equipped with weapons. Those were also jaw knives sharpened with insect carapace, which were far less sharp than the jaw knives in front of them.
The pavement ant warriors were busy taking off the jaw knives, but they didn't know how to do it. The jaw knives of the ants from the United Ants were put on the big jaws, and the middle was filled with a thick ant glue mixture. Once it dries, it is very strong. It needs to be heated slightly before it can be easily removed.
The pavement ants pull it hard, often removing the entire jaw from the corpse, and then slowly emptying out the residue inside, so that they can obtain a complete set of iron jaw knives.
Before dusk, this special team of the Pavement Ant Empire Army did nothing. They were busy peeling off the jaw knives. They only peeled off dozens of pairs, and many jaw knives were still left on the corpses.
At night, the Rangers camped in the captured nest. On the next day, in addition to continuing to peel the jaw knives from the corpses, they also sent out scouts from the Silver Ant Army and the Pavement Ant Empire Army to search, trying to find the next target to attack.
But until the fourth day, the Rangers where "White Point" was located had not been able to find a new enemy nest and had no target to attack. At this time, they had already finished peeling the jaw knives, and simply gave up the occupied nest, and the whole army moved to search.
There is not much food and grass left in the Rangers. Together with the seizure and reduced rations, it is enough for the entire army to eat for two days. Some commanders have suggested to the Viscount that they withdraw before the food is exhausted, but the Viscount does not agree.
His Excellency the Duke had issued an order to supply the enemy with food. If the Rangers fled back in despair in less than a week, the subordinate commanders would be fine, but the Viscount would probably be blamed.
He had finally climbed up from the bottom with great difficulty, and he could never be promoted again because of this kind of thing. He would rather take risks. Even if he went back half starved to death by then, he would still be executing orders and would not make any big mistakes.
While there was still some food and grass, the Viscount decided to continue searching. What if he captured an enemy nest rich in food?
But by that night, the returning search troops still had not made any gains. The enemy ants seemed to have disappeared from the world. Except for the occasional fly flying in the sky, no trace of the enemy nest or enemy ants could be found.
The Viscount would not blame the pavement ant warriors in the search force. He directed all his anger at the silver ant force.
The commander of the vassal Silver Ant is also very angry and he is also complaining. Although the silver ants have a very fast ultimate speed, they cannot maintain such a high speed all the time, which consumes a lot of energy. Now the Rangers have reduced their ration supply, and the Silver Ant vassals only have half of their rations. They can't even eat enough, and they still expect us to do desperate reconnaissance! ?
It’s no wonder that the silver ants don’t try their best. In fact, the Divine Envoy King’s army has ordered all the nests in the country to be hidden.
After discovering that several large-scale enemy special forces have bypassed [Panxia City], when the protagonist received the information, several lairs had already fallen.
However, these nests and resources have long since moved to the rear. There are very few ant troops left behind, so their loss will not have much impact.
The protagonist orders the remaining lairs to stop going out and hide behind the Jindiluo defense line. In this way, each lair is hidden and now it is harder to be discovered. The enemy can only find Jindiluo and know that there is something here if he is very close. A lair.
In the sky, the enemy's mosquito troops were also participating in the siege of [Panxia City], and they had no time to navigate the Rangers. The Rangers' search efficiency was very low. After a few days, the number of nests attacked by the Ant Alliance was greatly reduced.
At this time, the battle in [Banxia City] was still fierce, but both sides still had some remaining strength, and neither side played their final trump card.

At sunrise another day, the Rangers' food reserves were almost exhausted. The Viscount ordered the troops to return to the enemy's nest they had previously occupied. The food resources nearby were more plentiful. The troops could be ordered to spread out in search of food. Only the search troops continued to search. Enemy traces.
The viscount was very agitated, and from time to time he showed anger when he interacted with his subordinate commanders.
Both "White Point" and "White Belly" were reprimanded several times and were very unhappy. They did not think highly of this viscount who was not born in the "cave". When they came back, they summed up and simply killed both legions in the name of food. Brought out.
"White Point" and "White Belly" joined forces and led their troops to a dense grass area northwest of the camp. It rained last night. Today, some mushrooms, grass seeds and insects grew here. , is a treasure place with abundant food.
Yesterday, the scouts of the "White Belly" Corps discovered this place. "White Belly" did not report it to his boss, the Viscount, but hid it secretly.
Both legions had not had a full meal for several days, even Baidian and the others, so the whole army spread out to look for food. They were active happily for most of the day, and each of them had a round belly after eating.
In the afternoon, "Bai Dian" and "Bai Du" saw that the time was almost up, so they ordered their subordinates to form a team, bring some leftover food, and prepare to return to the nest for business.
"Bai Dian" didn't want to hand over any food to his boss, the Viscount, but "Bai Du" was more experienced. He knew that he had been out all day and bringing nothing back would arouse suspicion, so he persuaded "Bai Dian".
But when the two legions set off, they discovered that the situation had changed drastically.
