At this time, to the north, a large swarm of pavement ants is moving.
There are 50,000 to 60,000 pavement ants in this group. They do not advance in a long and narrow marching column, nor do they spread out in a wide attacking formation. The length and width of the team are somewhere between the marching and attacking formations.
This unique formation has its own uses. It turns out that they are guarding some male ant commanders in the center of the team.
In the sky, thousands of "mosquitoes" were circling and following. On the ground, among the densely packed walking ants, 24 green carabid beetles formed a ring formation. Going further in, you can see 4 lacha beetles on the open ground.
These beetles are much brighter in color than the green beetles, which only have bright green on the chest and back. Among them, the abdomen and back of three Lacha beetles are bright metallic green, while the chest and back are bright orange-red; and one Lacha beetle is even more beautiful, showing a violet color all over in the sun.
These four beetles have gorgeous tents decorated with ant silk and luminous materials on their backs, and the shadows of ants can be vaguely seen in them.
The ants nearby guarded the area, but they did not dare to enter the circle formed by the green beetles, leaving an open space that symbolized status.
On the backs of these colorful infantry armors must be the enemy's most senior commanders.
The enemy's headquarters is being transferred!
Previously, the reconnaissance flying knights had discovered the location of the enemy's headquarters. After all, a large number of messenger ants always gathered in one direction on the huge battlefield, which was very obvious from the air.
The protagonist once considered sending elite troops to go around and raid the enemy headquarters. However, after careful investigation by the Flying Knight, he found that the place was well fortified and defended by a large number of green infantry and pavement ant infantry. The nearby terrain was also easy to defend and difficult to attack.
After weighing it again and again, the protagonist can only give up.
But today, the reconnaissance flying knights noticed that ants were constantly gathering in the enemy's headquarters. While being constantly driven away by "mosquitoes", the reconnaissance flying knights paid the price of two knights being killed, but still observed the appearance of the unique pull armor.
The heavy sedan-like cabins on the backs of these larvae are obviously not used for fighting, but to make the male ants riding on the larvae more comfortable. The status of these male ants is obvious.
After the protagonist received the report, he immediately judged that the enemy's headquarters was moving forward.
At present, the enemy's headquarters is about half an hour away from the battlefield. It is difficult to understand the battle situation in time and conduct real-time command. Most of them rely on front-line troops to act independently.
In the past two days, the Pavement Ant Imperial Army once completely occupied the ground. This probably made the enemy commander feel that victory was in sight, so he moved his headquarters with confidence.
If they knew the war record of their country's Southern Expeditionary Army, they probably wouldn't be so reckless.
When a large number of air forces from the God's Envoy Army arrived, the enemy obviously did not expect that the God's Envoy King's Army would "behead" them in this way.
Although the previous bombing by the air force of the Divine Envoy King's Legion looked spectacular, due to the limitation of the actual bomb load, the one-time kill was only three or four digits, which did not make the other party's top commander alert.
But when the mighty dragonflies and flies flew into the sky, the other party instinctively felt fear!
The "mosquitoes" escorting the enemy in the air did not flee this time. In order to protect the headquarters, they rushed over without fear of death and fought with the flying knights who were leading the battle, but it was obvious that they quickly fell into a disadvantage.
Nowadays, the tactics of combat flying knights to deal with "mosquitoes" are becoming more and more mature. After taking advantage of high altitude and high speed to throw fire bombs and form a dense bolide shower, they will immediately swoop into the enemy's formation, relying on their strong armor and sharp lances to quickly attack Harvest the lives of enemy ants. No longer leading the opponent in circles like before, with low killing efficiency!
When the "Mosquito" was unable to protect itself and had no time to take care of others, the giant dragonfly troops entered the battlefield protected by a small number of flying knights and were basically immune to counterattacks.
A few dispersed "mosquitoes" tried to block the bombing force, but were immediately driven away by the escorting flying knights.
Many of the pavement ants on the ground seemed a little confused amidst the huge "buzzing" sound of flapping wings. The mixed team of Lacha and Green beetles in the middle had turned around, stepping on the ants regardless of the friendly troops everywhere. The body is trying to escape in the direction it came from.
The Giant Dragonfly troops immediately lowered their altitude. After receiving the order, the bombardier on his back began to take out the bombs one by one from the ammunition magazine, roll them along the track to the bomb chute, pierce and push them down.
In the sky, dozens of tiny black dots were arranged in a downward arc. The first black dot landed on the ground and immediately bloomed into an orange-red "flower" with a hot and explosive sound.
Countless orange "flowers" bloomed one after another, and the black military formation on the ground was quickly split by these beautiful colors. Countless small fire fields were formed, igniting all combustible materials nearby.
A large number of pavement ants lost their command in the air raid. The pavement ant soldiers were very afraid of the flames that would kill them at the first touch, so they ran around.
However, the first round of air strikes failed to damage the Rachas that were regarded as targets. They were very fast, and most of the aerial bombs exploded behind them. The few aerial bombs that exploded in front had no time to form a fire field, and the thick-shelled armor had already passed around them like the wind.
The giant dragonfly was in hot pursuit, and some flying knights rushed over to help. Large aerial bombs and small fire bombs and slings intensively hit the beetle troops on the ground, which had broken away from the protection of the large group of infantry.
Finally, a blue beetle was knocked down. When it passed through a flame, the box full of ant silk on its back was ignited. The flames burned to death the male ant Marquis inside and the driver beside it. The man who lost his command Unable to bear the burning pain on his back, the armor struggled to escape from the large army, but soon died on the way...
The remaining Labujia and Qingbujia were still running desperately, hoping to use their speed to get rid of the pursuers in the sky and escape into the forest not far away.
The air force of the God Envoy King's Legion was still in hot pursuit, dropping aerial bombs without hesitation, gradually taking away the lives of more Qingchao, but the remaining three Lachas were very flexible and very lucky. No fatal injuries were ever sustained.
It wasn't until they forced their opponent under a ridge at the edge of the forest that the three beetles slowed down as they climbed the 70-degree slope, and then two aerial bombs exploded nearby.
Only one blue-coloured beetle was not injured, and it climbed up in a hurry to escape. The other one, a purple-coloured beetle and a blue-coloured beetle, seemed to have injured their legs and fell back to the ground.
A male ant wearing a golden cicada shell crawled out of the box of the injured purple beetle and hurriedly tried to escape on foot.
But he had been pampered for a long time and his gait was slow. He couldn't outrun the chasing soldiers flying in the sky!
Like the world of ants. The world of ants.
