The viscount's tentacles swayed wildly, giving orders to the messengers one by one, and commanding the troops around him to move up one by one, trying to block the gap in front.
But it was too late, the enemy troops came too suddenly, and the troops who were scattered outside the city foraging for food were not gathered back. There were only less than 5 legions of troops around the viscount, which was really too thin.
At first, the Viscount wanted to occupy the gap between Jindiluo and set up defenses. However, a single enemy army had already broken through the first line of defense. The Viscount could only retreat to the lair and command his troops to resist at the entrance of the lair.
In the hand-to-hand combat at the narrow entrance, the pavement ant warriors were no match for the enemy armed to the jaws, and the defense line soon crumbled.
Fortunately, the Viscount still had a key reserve team in his hands. He sent the troops of Ai's ants up. These tough warriors were huge and good at fighting in formations. Moreover, their stingers were small and sharp, and they could often attack from behind. The warriors of the God's Envoy King were stung in the gaps in their armors. The stabbed warriors of the God's Envoy King would die from the poison in a short time.
Relying on the tenacious resistance of the Ai's ant warriors, the Viscount temporarily stabilized the front and hid deep in the nest without any worries. However, there were only more than 200 Ai's ant warriors. The number was too small and they could not hold out for long.
The only hope for the Rangers is that the more than 20,000 soldiers from more than 20 legions scattered outside looking for food can return to their aid in time!
When "White Spot" and "White Belly" returned, they saw vague flying shadows in the sky in the distance. These flying shadows even approached and lowered their altitude for reconnaissance. It turned out to be some enemy "flies".
"White Spot" and "White Belly" ordered their subordinates to be alert, but they were not nervous yet. These days, they could see sporadic or clustered flies flying in the sky from time to time.
Flies generally do not attack the army of the Pavement Ant Empire, even if they have ground attack methods such as fire bombs.
As long as they don't attack themselves, "White Spot" and the others don't care why these flies are here, just let them fly in the sky. Anyway, they don't have any anti-aircraft ants in their army.
But after traveling to the nest for about half an hour, Baidian and the others finally realized something was wrong! .
A pavement ant messenger encountered the "white spot" and hurriedly conveyed the order of another Baron Legion commander, asking all legions to assemble to a certain location, and then continued running in other directions.
Normally, "White Point" and "White Belly" would be too lazy to obey the instructions of these male ants at the same level. They would not even look down on a viscount or earl who was not born in a cave, let alone a baron who was just an ordinary person.
But now, they had to obey orders, because the messenger told them that the viscount was being besieged, and the baron was gathering reinforcements for rescue.
The military situation was urgent, and "White Point" and "White Belly" did not dare to act like monsters and hurriedly led their troops to the assembly point. There are already about 4 legions of troops here, but when it is actually understood, there are actually 7 legions here, and many legions have lost nearly half.
It turns out that the army here has already carried out a rescue, but was repulsed by the enemy and suffered heavy losses. The most senior male ant baron currently under temporary command is looking for new forces everywhere to replenish the battle losses and prepare for the next offensive.
But there are not many reinforcements nearby. Troops like the "White Point" and "White Belly" legions that escaped the first wave of aerial reconnaissance by the Angel King legion in the dense grass are really rare.
The Angel King Legion was a long-planned counterattack. They gathered the reserves at the rear and, under the guidance of the Flying Knight, eliminated the isolated Pavement Ant Imperial Army Rangers one after another. Now this is the fifth Rangers team they are about to eliminate.
At the beginning of the battle, the Angel King's legions raided the lair and massacred or expelled the scattered enemies on the periphery with familiarity, and then established a blocking position.
The Pavement Ant Imperial Army will only suffer a bloody blow in front of this blocking line of defense! Moreover, the Divine Envoy King’s Army is not just trying to stop him!
When the legions of "White Point" and "White Belly" joined the sequence, the commanding baron prepared to launch another rescue. But before they could take action, the defeated troops on their periphery had already fled back.
The three enemy legions had detoured to the left, right and rear at some point and were launching an attack.
At this time, the troops did not care about relieving the siege, and hurriedly organized a line of defense to resist, but they were defeated soon after.
If it weren't for a silver ant unit that was killing them at high speed, even after receiving the warning from the Flying Knights, the God Envoy King's army would not have bothered to organize a blockade. The silver ant unit would have opened a gap in the encirclement net, and they would have been afraid that "White Spot" would have escaped. Don't come out!
There were only a dozen guards left around "White Point". He clenched his jaw tightly and tried to move forward, following the fast-moving silver ants forward. He knew that once he stopped, he would never be able to get out again!
"White Belly" has disappeared, and "White Point" can no longer care about the friendship between comrades, so he can only think about escaping for his own life first!
Pinellia City
The surface of the small mound, which only covers an area of a few square meters, is covered with dense ants, as if burning with a layer of black wildfire, crawling, rolling and spreading upwards.
Countless pavement ants, fire ants, silver ants, yellow ants, burrowing ants and other warriors formed this wildfire. It was so dark that it seemed that it could burn down and engulf the ground fortress of the lonely and small Banxia City at any time.
But the fortress guarded by the Divine Envoy King's legion was like a rock made of real gold, unmoving in the black fire. Countless warriors of the God Envoy King stood on the city wall, repelling the "black fire" that rushed up again and again.
About ten meters away from Banxia City is the main formation of the Pavilion Ant Empire Army. On a towering stone, the Duke, the supreme commander of the Pavement Ant Empire Army, stands here, looking at the battlefield in the distance.
The compound eyes on his head couldn't see the details of the battlefield, but the "mosquitoes" that fell from time to time were his eyes, extending his vision and allowing him to watch how his army retreated again and again!
The Duke was no longer as angry as before, only numb.
In the past few days, his troops have attacked this place countless times. Whether it was a sneak attack by silver ants, an airborne "mosquito", a skirmish attack by yellow ant, or a formation attack by Ehrlich ants, all kinds of tactics have failed. In the end, they can only rely on Soldiers from all races gathered together and attacked over and over again.
The Duke also ordered the ground to be dug up to directly attack the underground lair, but all he found was rocks and no way in could be found.
The Pavement Ant Empire Army has never seen such a strong enemy nest, with strong city walls, towering ant mounds, extremely long-range artillery fire, sharp and strong jaw knives and iron armor, and enemy night attack troops that appear in the rear from time to time. This battle is extremely difficult!
Compared with the triumphant advance of the Western Expeditionary Army, the Southern Expeditionary Army has fallen into a dilemma!
