The meeting begins.
As usual, the queen ant from the Leafcutter Ant Kingdom was the first to speak on behalf of the host and the guardian clan of the sacred tree.
She did not shy away from sending an information package on the recent war situation to the participating delegates. The representatives read it carefully and looked at each other in confusion.
Millions of enemy troops, the green beetles charging into battle, the "mosquitoes" ruling the sky, the leaf-cutting ant army retreating steadily, and nests falling one after another.
This horrific war scene makes even the most belligerent representatives of bullet ants and army ants feel terrified! All the representatives of the ant clan weighed it in their hearts and came to the conclusion that with the strength of their own country, if they deal with such a terrible enemy alone, they will only fail.
After all the representatives had read the information package, the leafcutter ant queen representative said that the leafcutter ant nation urgently needs support from all civilizations, including food, reinforcements, supplies, everything.
In this national war, three major battles, even a powerful country like the Leaf Cutter Ant Nation was almost at the point of running out of fuel after losing millions of troops and a large amount of territory.
Previously, all the civilized ant tribes, including the Ant United Nation, had never thought that a country with a mere "barbaric ant tribe" could force the leaf-cutting ant nation responsible for guarding the sacred tree in this area to such a situation!
At this time, the protagonist also quickly followed up and expressed his position: Ant United Nations also needs support. He also shared the information package about the recent war of the God Envoy King Legion, hoping to give these "allies" a more empathetic sense of urgency!
In this kind of national war, the more support you can get, the better. Even if the protagonist has already prepared for the worst and is preparing for the war with all the strength of the country, it would be better to have one more foreign aid.
During World War II, the Soviet Union pushed forward in the later stages, but didn’t it also have to rely on the assistance of Europe and the United States in the early stage to withstand the German blitzkrieg and drag the war into winter?
After the leafcutter ant representatives and the principals finished speaking, each representative was silent, each thinking about whether they should provide new assistance. If they did, they would have to calculate what kind of assistance their country could provide and how to provide it.
Some of these representatives have decision-making power and can make decisions on the spot, while others can only make suggestions, which will have to be reviewed by the highest authority when they return. Everyone is waiting and watching for the time being and has not spoken.
At this time, a discordant message passed from the cobblestone floor into the antennae of the representatives.
"The Legion of the God's Envoy is said to be good at fighting, but it was actually bitten by a group of barbaric ants like soft snails. They just shrink into their shells!"
When the protagonist heard this, he had already identified the speaker from the characteristics of the message and glared at him. The speaker was none other than Xiao Ying, the representative of the remnants of the Northern Expeditionary Army. He came to the meeting as a vassal of the Black Fire Ant Clan!
The protagonist is holding back a rage in his heart. He has been overwhelmed by the pressure of the unsatisfactory war in recent days. At this moment, he really wants to take the opportunity to vent. But he endured it. The protagonist has matured a lot now and knows that when necessary, emotions must give way to considerations of interests.
But he was still very angry. As expected, traitors are more hateful than enemies! ! !
Fortunately, other ant representatives vented their anger on the protagonist in time.
Originally, there was no clear regulation on whether vassal representatives could attend the "Civilized Ant Tribe Conference", but there was no precedent either. Last time, the black fire ant clan said that they had found the lost civilized ant clan and it was okay to bring Flying Eagle to the meeting. But bringing it with him this time made the host feel a little inappropriate.
The leafcutter ant queen didn't pay too much attention before, thinking that the eagle would just listen. Unexpectedly, the vassal representative actually spoke up and sent a very provocative message.
The flying eagle ridiculed that the King's army was defeated, but the leaf-cutting ant army was defeated in a row? The record is even worse than that of the Divine Envoy King Legion. What Tingying wanted to do was to stimulate the protagonist, but he didn't expect that he would also offend the host.
Most of the time, ants still lack the ability to empathize with their emotional intelligence.
The angry leafcutter ant queen expressed that she wanted to expel the flying hawk, and some representatives agreed. The black fire ant representatives had a mission before they came, and had to find ways to protect the flying hawk. They also received support from some representatives who were friendly with them.
In the end, Tingying was not expelled from the venue, which was considered to be the face of the black fire ants. However, as punishment, he was banned from speaking. The remaining troops of the Northern Expeditionary Army had to pay a certain amount of food to the Leafcutter Ant Nation and the Ant Alliance Nation to express their apology. .
Later, under the auspices of the anxious leaf-cutting ant queen, the meeting topics finally returned to normal.
The bullet ant clan is the most righteous and righteous. The small group of troops they had previously supported the leaf cutter ant nation performed very bravely when assisting in the battle, but were completely wiped out. The Bullet Ant clan expressed their willingness to provide more troop support, but their locust transport team has limited capacity. If more reinforcements are transported, the corresponding material transportation volume will be reduced.
Some other ant tribes have also expressed their willingness to participate in the war, but many ant tribes are far away, and all assistance has to be delivered with the help of the locust transport team of the bullet ant clan and the giant dragonfly transport team of the hairy forest ant clan.
And the transportation capacity of these two countries, whether it is transporting troops or supplies, is a drop in the bucket in the face of a national war with a million-strong army!
Transportation capacity has become a bottleneck that restricts the aid from various countries and races to the Leaf-cutting Ant Country and the Ant Alliance Country.
————
In the conference room, various messages from representatives of various ethnic groups were quickly passed on the cobblestone floor, and the core topic of discussion was only one - how to deliver aid to the war zone.
The results of the current discussions are very limited. Even if the transport team capacity of the bullet ant clan and hairy forest ant clan is increased to the limit, it will not be enough. It takes time to form a new transport team, and it may not be completed before winter.
What's more, who should bear the responsibility for the food supplies consumed by the new transport team? Its owners said they would not take the responsibility, and it was not that they needed assistance. The Ant Alliance stated that it could bear part of it, but the Leafcutter Ant Nation had already spent all its food on breeding new ant colonies to replenish war losses and was unwilling to bear the burden. Other ant tribes are even less likely to bear it!
The proposal to expand the air transportation force has reached a deadlock, and the only option is to rely on the existing transportation force for assistance that is better than nothing.
The protagonist thought for a while and proposed another proposal.
The closest civilized ant tribe to the Leafcutter Ant Nation and the Ant Alliance Nation is undoubtedly the Black Fire Ant Nation. Although the black fire ant country does not have as many ant colonies as the leaf-cutting ant country, its territory is actually larger than that of the leaf-cutting ant country. The reason why the number of ant colonies is smaller is because the ant colony density of the hunting and gathering civilization is naturally lower than that of the farming civilization. many.
Now after the expansion of the Ant Alliance on the south bank of Qinghe River, the territory is very close to the border of the Black Fire Ant Nation.
The protagonist suggested that the Black Fire Ant Nation send troops to expel the indigenous tribes, open up transportation with the Ant Alliance Nation, and then send the country's aid supplies to [Pioneer City] via road transportation routes, then transport them across the river and distribute them to Qieye Ant Kingdom and Ant United Kingdom!
The total volume of road transport teams, even if considerable consumption is removed, is much larger than that of air transport!
The representatives all looked at the Black Fire Ant representative, waiting for him to express his position!
