The bad news doesn't stop there.
Later that day, the Flying Knight urgently reported that the Western Region was being attacked by a large-scale attack by the Black Fire Ant Army.
More than 100,000 black fire ant troops crossed the border and launched attacks on multiple nests and strongholds of the Ant Alliance. This was no longer a small-scale conflict, but a large-scale war! ! ! Seeing that a war within the civilized ant tribe is about to break out...
Fortunately, the most important secondary nest in the West, the [Western City] fortress, was well-defended and was not attacked by the enemy. It withstood the enemy's offensive. However, some nearby small sub-nests and strongholds were basically lost. At this time, the defenders of the Western Region were waiting for the order of the Divine Envoy King.
The protagonist immediately asked the local defenders to hold on, while several legions assembled on the second line began to look for fighter planes to counterattack. Several legions on the north bank of the Qinghe River were transferred to the south bank, and some legions on the south bank rushed to the front line.
The protagonist organized all the military forces of the Western Territory to form the Western Territory Front Army, and placed it under the command of the veteran general "Spade Elephant" who returned to battle. Originally, the front army commander he preferred was "Gun II", but his qualifications were no older than many of the front army commanders, and his personality was rather arrogant and unconventional. Out of the worry of not being able to convince the crowd, the protagonist could only let "Gun II" who had been idle for a long time. "Spade Elephant" is the coach, and "Gun II" is the deputy coach and forward.
After the deployment of troops was completed, the protagonist remembered something again. He ordered the flying knights to immediately take off for reconnaissance, and then organized troops from the deputy nest along the way to encircle and annihilate the vassal ants of the Black Fire Ant Nation that were passing through the territory of the Ant Alliance.
These client ants were sailors from the previous fleet. After delivering the goods, they received the snail shells filled with honeydew and crow honey according to the trading rules, and carried them northward on foot along the ant track, preparing to return home by land.
There are currently three groups of vassal ants of the Black Fire Ant Country that have not left the country. They seem to be unaware that the war between the overlord country and the Black Fire Ant Country has been ignited, and they are unprepared when they encounter encirclement and suppression.
The God Envoy King's army destroyed these three groups of vassal ants of the Black Fire Ant Kingdom in one go, snatched back a large amount of honeydew and crow honey, and also calculated the bad smell of burning coal!
The protagonist is also fortunate that the ants are generally not very good at playing tricks. If this group of vassal ants also received orders in advance and launched simultaneous nuisances when [Pioneering City] and the border were attacked, then it would not be easy to find and eliminate these thousands of guerrilla ants, even with flying knights to investigate. .
These ants can hide in dense grass and woods, avoid strongly fortified nests and encircling armies, and continuously attack in small groups those worker ants who go out to forage and work, which will definitely give the Ant Alliance a headache.
Fortunately, the opponent does not have such wisdom yet.
The protagonist is convinced that it was the traitor Flying Eagle who planned all this, because this method is very familiar. No, bad news has come from the Leafcutter Ant Nation. The special envoy from the Black Fire Ant Nation claimed to have cracked the "Vulcan Monument" divine edict, called the Ant Alliance Nation a demonic force, and called for a civilized ant tribe conference (the Ant Alliance Nation was not invited). National Assembly) to launch a holy war against the demonic forces.
Fortunately, the Leafcutter Ant Nation rejected the suggestion of the special envoy of the Black Fire Ant Nation. When they learned that the border and domestic high-level officials of the Ant Alliance had been attacked, they expressed their deep anxiety about the savagery of the Black Fire Ant Nation and reported it to the Ant Alliance. The special envoy stated that a conference attended by representatives of all civilized ant tribes would be held to mediate this conflict.
This is why the protagonist has made a great contribution to the black fire ant tribe many times before at civilized ant tribe conferences, slandering them as being "barbaric". The leaf-cutting ants were very worried about "barbarism", so they did not listen to the black fire ants. A one-sided statement from the Fire Ant Nation.
The protagonist does not place any hope in the mediation of the Civilized Ant Tribe Conference. This organization has no coercive power and cannot restrain powerful factions like the Black Fire Ant Nation at all. What he wants is revenge, a most vivid revenge, so that he can show the determination of the Divine Envoy King's army and deter those hostile forces.
Currently, on the border, the Legion of the God Envoy King, which has not yet been assembled and is at a numerical disadvantage, is still on the defensive. The enemy's attack was menacing and they had a plan in advance. The garrison in [Western City] received orders not to go out to fight and could only wait for reinforcements.
It turns out that the protagonist did not expect such a large-scale conflict with the Black Fire Ant Congress, so he took one step slowly and lost the opportunity. Fortunately, the Ant Alliance's national strength is at its peak. As long as it survives the first stage of the surprise attack, it can regain its disadvantage.
Fortunately, the Black Fire Ant Kingdom's army is not very powerful in combat. If the Pavement Ant Empire Army or even the Red Fire Ant Army were to attack [Western City] with only 20,000 defenders, they would probably be able to quickly capture it, instead of the sudden force like now. Not forward.
On August 26, 96 flying knights escorted the air force of 12 giant dragonflies and launched a counterattack against the Black Fire Ant Kingdom.
The air force of the God Envoy Legion air raided the main nest of the Black Fire Ant Kingdom [Black Fire City]. The flying knights continuously dived and dropped bombs on the worker ants working outside the nest, killing dozens of worker ants with fire bombs and slings, which angered the locals. There was panic.
The Giant Dragonfly Troop was originally a flying transport troop. At this time, it was transformed into a bomber. The soldier ants on its back continued to drop bombs filled with mysterious liquids, blowing holes in the ant mounds of [Black Fire City], triggering an uprising. Small fires.
After the flying troops of the God Envoy King's Legion left, the country of Black Fire Ant was shocked by this small-scale air raid.
The top brass of the Black Fire Ant Nation, who originally thought they had a well-planned plan and everything under control, suddenly discovered that the enemy had the ability to directly threaten their main nest. This made their top brass extremely angry and frightened.
However, the Black Fire Ant Nation was not helpless. When the flying troops launched another air strike the next day, they saw this scene:
[Black Fire City] Outside the ant mound, thousands of ants were already waiting, sticking their buttocks out and spraying streams of acid into the air. The range of these acid liquids is not enough to threaten giant dragonflies, but it can suppress the dive bombing of combat flying knights riding bees, and it can also have some anti-aircraft effect.
In addition, the prototype of the rope net being woven can be seen outside the ant mound. The other party is obviously constructing a rope protection net. This is a trick used by the Divine Envoy King's Legion before. It is self-evident who taught the Ant United Kingdom.
Air strikes are just an appetizer. With the weak air-to-ground capabilities of the God Envoy King's army, the protagonist does not expect to achieve much results, let alone destroy [Black Fire City].
For the ant world, the real decisive battle still depends on the ground battle.
At this time, the black fire ant army assembled outside [Western City] has reached 200,000, and they are attacking day and night.
But [Western City] is a fortress with very high construction standards. It has trenches, city walls, towers, ant mounds, and underground fortifications. It is equipped with a lot of iron cannons and ammunition, and the food reserves are enough to last for more than a year. All this is to prevent the black fire ant country, and it comes in handy now.
The black fire ant army's onslaught failed, and instead they lost troops and generals. The original raid turned into a protracted attack.
This made the mastermind behind the scenes feel deeply uneasy!
