The scorching sun is like fire, and the scorching sun is like moxibustion.
At the beginning of August, it had not rained for four consecutive days, but the temperature was close to 40 degrees, and the ground surface was almost 50 degrees. The sun showed its power to the fullest, and the lush vegetation withered, and the entire earth was rapidly losing moisture.
The sky was blue and cloudless, and it looked like there would be no precipitation in the short term!
The protagonist thus sees the opportunity for a long-awaited fire attack.
Previously, in order to meet the requirements of the protagonist, in the workshop of the scientific research department in [Xinyang City], a large amount of mysterious liquid was prepared from the fluorescent bacteria extract using new technology, and was adsorbed with plant fiber, and then passed through a layer of grease to form protection. The membrane is made into the arson fibers needed for fire attack.
Once the grease on the surface of these fibers is destroyed, the mysterious liquid inside begins to oxidize and will soon spontaneously combust. This is an arson item designed by the protagonist. It was rushed to the front line by an air transport team before it could even be tested.
On the night of August 6th, the Flying Knight Messenger took advantage of the enemy's "Mosquito" troops to return to camp, and secretly landed in [Panxia City] under the moonlight. He informed the defenders of the next day's battle plan and asked the nest to take shelter. Fire prevention preparation!
At this point, the Divine Envoy King's army is all ready!
————
August 7th was a still dry and hot day. The sky was as blue as a mirror, and there was still no trace of white clouds and water vapor.
This day seems to be ordinary. The Duke of the Pavement Ant Empire Army continues to stand in the formation, looking at the offensive and defensive battle of the fortress from a distance through the "mosquito", which is the same offensive and defensive battle every day.
In the past few days, the Pavement Ant Imperial Army's attack on [Panxia City] has been significantly weakened, with less troops invested and more ammunition and materials used by the defenders.
When the next fortress cannot be stormed, the Pavement Ant Imperial Army also knows the tactics of winning through siege.
The food stored in a nest is limited. The more defenders there are, the faster the food is consumed. [Panxia City]'s external communication is basically cut off and cannot be replenished. Although it is theoretically possible to transport secretly at night, the surface fortress of [Panxia City] is very small and lacks the space needed for the air transport team to land. It's okay if a few flying knights sneak in at night, but a large-scale airlift will definitely alert the enemy's "mosquito" troops. Therefore, the protagonist has not carried out air supply operations to [Panxia City].
On the Pavement Ant Empire's side, there is a steady stream of logistical supplies from the rear. Although the logistics line still encounters attacks from time to time, with the establishment of a series of small fortresses, and the Pavement Ant Empire's homeland and the Red Fire Ant Nation's attacks at all costs, By dispatching a large number of transport teams, the Pavement Ant Imperial Army on the front line can still receive a relatively sufficient supply of supplies.
If the script develops according to Duke Pavement Ant's vision, the "isolated" [Pinellia City] can only hold on for a few months at most, and will inevitably run out of ammunition and food before winter. Even if they persist until winter, the Pavement Ant Empire Army is a race that can fight in winter and can continue to fight.
By then, [Banxia City] will be the Duke’s prey!
After seeing nothing unusual for a while, the pavement ant Duke returned to the underground lair to enjoy the "holy juice" that had just been delivered. Just after I returned, a messenger suddenly came to report - the enemy's "flies" were attacking in large numbers!
The Duke hurriedly sucked up the "holy juice" from the guard's mouth, then hurriedly got out of the underground lair and looked up to the sky.
At this time, the sky was almost covered with dense "mosquitoes" and "flies". The air forces of both sides were fighting together. Countless criss-crossing flight trajectories shuttled through the Duke's compound eyes like a mess.
Only the fighters on both sides in the air know how dangerous this battle is!
In order to cover the troops behind responsible for arson, the entire flying knights deployed by the God's Envoy Army on the front line were dispatched. They entered the battlefield from a high altitude, using the canopy of a tree on the edge of the battlefield as cover. They suddenly appeared above the enemy "mosquitoes" and ignited hundreds of enemies with a dense net of falling fire bombs.
Not to be outdone, the "Mosquito" troops mobilized almost all their troops to fight. The flying knights soon had to disperse into small groups to fight - the mobility of large groups was limited and they could easily be outflanked and overtaken by the enemy.
There are enemies and friends everywhere. Even though the flying knights have the advantage of mobility, they often have to be dragged into hand-to-hand combat by numerous enemies. Battle losses on both sides were rising rapidly.
However, the Flying Knights accomplished their campaign objectives. When three guest bombing units from giant dragonflies and locust transport teams arrived in the battlefield airspace, the "Mosquito" units of the Pavement Ant Empire Army had already fallen into fighting on their own and had no reserve team. Front tackle.
On the transport team's mounts, the drivers, who were tied with ant silk, used their movable jaws, jointed limbs, and tentacles to poke holes in the grease layer on the "arson fibers" and then threw them down.
While still in the air, these flammable fibers began to burn, and after falling to the ground, they quickly ignited nearby dry weeds.
Some fibers fell to the ground and slowly extinguished without being effective, but the vast majority caused more and more fires.
There are occasional accidents when dropping bombs. On the back of a giant dragonfly, a small ball of fiber was caught on a bulge on the dragonfly's carapace when it was dragged out. It exploded with a "whoosh" before it could escape.
Because this ball of fiber has a grease layer, the grease immediately burns violently when it is heated, and becomes sticky, which sticks to the dragonfly. The dragonfly howls silently and struggles, carrying the ants and a bunch of ants on its back. A plume of black smoke fell to the ground.
After all, this was the first time the "Arson Fiber" had been put into actual combat, and it still had many shortcomings. By the time the bombing force returned, more than a dozen Taming Beasts had been lost, all due to their own accidents.
But they also completed their task. There were fires everywhere on the ground. The hot and dry weather caused these fires to grow rapidly. The flammable weeds were almost ignited. The lines of fire spread from different fire points to all directions at an extremely fast speed, with a burst of Bursts of flames and thick smoke left patches of dark, still smoldering land.
The flying knights and "mosquito" troops began to break away from contact. The thick smoke rising from the ground was unbearable for both sides. Some flying knights and "mosquitoes" that were directly smoked even fell into the fire field and could no longer fly.
On the ground, countless ants fled in all directions. Some burrowed into the ground, while others panicked and were quickly roasted to death by the rapidly approaching fire line.
There is no vegetation on the hill where [Panellia City] is located, but the heat wave has hit from all directions. The defenders immediately returned to the underground to hide. The surrounding Pavement Ant Imperial Army retreated hastily, wanting to return to the camp for refuge, but retreated into the weeds. When they reached the dense valley, they suddenly discovered that the entire army was surrounded by flames.
The fire was bright and brilliant, the smoke was hot and thick, and red and black replaced the blue sky and green grass and trees in summer at this moment.
