Under the "self-destruction" tactics of the Sang's flat-headed ants, the casualties of the green beetles immediately increased greatly, and the arrogant momentum was curbed.
Without the cover of the Green Walker Armor, the Pavement Ant Imperial Army's military formation was destroyed by the self-destruction of Sand's flat-headed ants, interspersed by tough army ants, and oppressed by the completely different blind leaf-cutting ants who were better at forming and fighting. , finally couldn’t hold on any longer.
The Pavement Ant Imperial Army, which stood out and took the initiative to counterattack, retreated one after another and were forced back.
At the same time, the right wing of the God's Envoy Army also launched an attack on a large group of nearly 100,000 warriors on the enemy's far left.
The Divine Envoy King's army only had about 60,000 warriors, which was a little more than half of the ant colony in front of them. However, its combat effectiveness was more than one and a half points stronger than the opponent's, and it quickly defeated the enemy ants in front of them.
Behind the Angel King's army, on a high ground, hundreds of millet cannons and mung bean cannons were pouring out firepower.
These artillery pieces were continuously mobilized to Chitie City from various places in the past few days. At the beginning of the battle, the artillerymen, with the assistance of the beetle drivers, set up the largest artillery position in the history of the War of the Divine Envoy King.
Every minute, dozens or hundreds of artillery shells smashed into the dense array of pavement ants. This kind of firepower attack that came and went without a trace made the pavement ant warriors a little shaken. They were not afraid of the enemy ants facing each other, but Afraid of the unknown power!
All pavement ants, whether they are commanders or soldiers, may see a vague black shadow at any time, and the next second may have broken bones and tendons, or even turn into corpses.
When the artillery of the Divine Envoy Legion extended its firepower in depth, the flying knights swooped down to add another round of aerial firepower. The beetle troops then used large stag beetles as arrows, followed by medium-sized beetles, and the bifurcated rhinoceros beetles used the cannons on their backs to provide close support.
There were also some Green Infantry Armor in front of the enemy, but the number was small and they were quickly eliminated by the tank troops. Subsequently, the largest group of enemy troops was no longer able to resist. It was unable to maintain its formation after the collision and crushing of hundreds of tanks. It was then defeated by a swarm of warriors armed to the jaws of the Divine Envoy King.
At this time, the two defeated Pavement Ant Empire army clusters had just retreated, without losing their organization and command. They left some troops behind, and the main force followed the Marquis's main formation and moved towards the camp. There was a small high ground, and the enemy troops You can use the terrain to regroup.
This is the right choice, but it only works when there is effective command.
After repelling the two clusters in front of them, the Angel King Legion and the main force of the coalition did not pursue the victory, but laterally attacked the other two Marquis clusters of the Pavement Ant Empire Army that had not moved.
The two marquis groups did not put up much resistance. Perhaps they saw that the surrounding friendly troops had retreated, so they also retreated one after another.
The movement of the four marquis clusters caused other count clusters and vassal clusters to retreat one after another. Viewed from the sky, the Pavement Ant Imperial Army's position retreated as quickly as the ebbing sea water.
The Divine Envoy King's army and the coalition forces began a full-scale pursuit.
On the battlefield, it is very difficult to retreat in an orderly manner. In the Battle of Feishui in human history, the former Qin army suddenly lost control when it retreated in an orderly manner, resulting in chaos and a huge defeat. of.
Although the retreat of the Pavement Ant Imperial Army did not trigger a civil strife like a roaring retreat, it was still quite difficult.
If some troops retreat slowly, they will encounter key attacks from the pursuing coalition forces. They will soon be divided and surrounded and suffer heavy casualties. Some troops withdrew quickly, but soon found that the road ahead was blocked by friendly troops, and they tried their best to move forward. As a result, two or even more troops were crowded together, and the generals could not find their soldiers, soldiers, or generals. When they were pursued, When the soldiers came, they had no power to resist.
The protagonist sits on the back of a two-pronged rhinoceros turtle and charges with the troops. The enemy troops fled along the way. He stared at the huge but disorderly Pavement Ant Imperial Army. At this time, they were like a giant beetle that was stung by a small insect and retreated step by step, with almost no will to resist.
This is why this situation occurs because the enemy forces do not have unified command, and they are defeated by the coalition forces who are not as numerous as themselves. The enemy troops were fighting on their own and had no intention of counterattack. They just instinctively kept retreating and avoiding.
This time, the Divine Envoy King's Legion was truly as lucky as the gods.
If it hadn't been for the Duke who had successfully captured the enemy's Western Expeditionary Army. The enemy's southern expedition would not have turned to advance westward, and the coalition forces would not have been able to rely on ambush in the ravine to eat up half of the enemy's main force and reverse the battlefield situation; if the enemy's western expedition had not lost its supreme commander, this would have been impossible. The Angel King Legion and the coalition forces will not take the initiative in this battle.
All this is because of the "contribution" of the pavement ant Duke who is still locked up in the underground cell of Hematite City!
The Pavement Ant Imperial Army gradually retreated to the high ground where the camp was located, and began to try to rely on the terrain to resist.
During the retreat, they left behind tens of thousands of wounded soldiers and corpses, and two vassal groups fled without a fight, evacuating the battlefield to the north.
The protagonist ignored the withdrawal of the enemy red fire ant and silver ant troops. The coalition forces were too small to block all the gaps. Moreover, one of the red fire ants and silver ants that escaped was very difficult to deal with, and the other was too fast. The protagonist would not be able to mobilize too much power for the two secondary goals.
His only goal is to eliminate the main force of the Pavement Ant Imperial Army!
After a rapid round of artillery fire, the Angel King's Legion and the coalition forces began to attack the enemy camp from three directions.
The relative height of this camp is only one meter, which is not a dangerous terrain. The enemy chose to camp here mainly because there are water sources in the nearby low-lying areas and because it is a forest open space with good lighting, not for fortification.
No one expected that the Divine Envoy King's army, which had been suppressed before, would suddenly counterattack!
Now, the enemy forces can only rely on independent resistance in unfavorable terrain. The coalition forces quickly occupied the foot of the mountain and the mountainside an hour later. The resistance of the Pavement Ant Imperial Army, which was unable to mobilize support, was tenacious but very ineffective, and was only defeated one by one.
The Pavement Ant Imperial Army had to retreat again, and soon lost the main slope of the camp. After a while, the top of the mountain was also lost.
Now, although the God's Envoy King's Legion and the coalition forces have suffered a lot of casualties, they are already condescending.
The enemy army lost even its geographical advantage and retreated in large strides again, immediately losing the reverse slope on the southern slope of the camp. The entrances to the underground camps are all on this side, and the Pavement Ant Imperial Army has lost even the camp and the food inside.
The time has come!
Instead of continuing to oppress the enemy troops who had retreated into the low-lying areas below, the Divine Envoy Army and the coalition forces quickly set up defensive positions around them.
Just when the Pavement Ant Imperial Army thought they could take a breather, not long after, the troops approaching the southwest were horrified to find that a stream of water was pouring slowly but unstoppably from a ditch into the low-lying land!
