Just when the Battle of Black Creek between the civilized ant alliance and the parasitic army came to an end. In the far north, on the territory of the Alfalfa Hills where the Pavement Ant Imperial Army had stubbornly held firm for a year, the last battle came to an end.
The ground was covered with corpses and debris, covering a long battlefield that spread from northwest to southeast. The corpses of up to a million ants and war beasts from both sides stretched for hundreds of meters in length, changing the background of the earth. .
This is the last battle experienced by the Imperial Army soldiers of the last paving ants on the Alfalfa Hills, the last figure left in this world.
Until night fell, the darkness swallowed up all the corpses, and a large number of scavenging insects emerged, greedily devouring other corpses except the corpses of the destroyers. The sound of insects was as if the dead warriors were singing softly with their vocal organs.
As many as millions of creatures seem to have never come to this world, and will soon reintegrate into nature. This shocking war seems to have never happened, and will never be known to the vast majority of ants in the world. .
Only the members of the Pavement Ant Empire know how magnificent, majestic, tragic and tragic the war picture this year has been...
————
Last summer, as the pavement ant empire discovered that the little devil ants, also known as the destroyers, had invaded the Alfalfa Hills, they had defeated their country's old enemy, the Argentine ant kingdom, and captured a large area of their territory.
The Pavement Ant Empire reacted and immediately showed its strong national strength and mobilization power. It immediately mobilized millions of troops and went to the Alfalfa Hills battlefield to support them.
At first, the battle went smoothly.
On August 1, after the Imperial Army of Pavement Ants had assembled at the only remaining mature nest in the Alfalfa Hills, they launched a battle with the incoming 150,000 Destroyers. At the cost of losing more than half, they almost wiped out all of them. Destroyers, only a few Destroyers escaped.
After this battle, there were only more than 10,000 scattered remnants of the Destroyers left in the Alfalfa Hills. They were in a state of disrepair. Under the double attack of the Pavement Ant Empire and the Argentinian Ant Nation that was striving to recover, they could only continue to retreat to the northernmost end of the Alfalfa Hills. .
It happened that the Pavement Ant Empire made a strategic mistake at this time. The "Three Kings" and "Six Kings" misjudged the strength of the Destroyer and believed that the opponent was no longer enough to rely on. The Pavement Ant's head turned around and its compound eyes were aimed at the other party. A family of ants.
So on the Alfalfa Hills, the Pavement Ant Empire Army, which had received the second batch of reinforcements, turned to attack its old enemy the Argentine Ant Kingdom, trying to take down this once extremely powerful country that now only occupies one third of the Alfalfa Hills, and its territory is broken and the ants The old enemy whose reputation was greatly reduced was completely eliminated.
The Argentine ants were unwilling to perish and rose up to resist. Although the Pavement Ant Imperial Army had an absolute advantage, it took until late October to completely eliminate the Argentine ant kingdom, killing hundreds of thousands of Argentine ants and capturing a small number of queens and eggs. Send them back to the main nest as prisoners.
The surviving Argentine ant tribe became the new slave ant tribe under the powerful Pavement Ant Empire. The prestige of this year's "Three Kings" and "Six Kings" has also greatly increased.
However, the good times did not last long, and the Destroyer made a comeback!
At the end of October, as many as 400,000 Destroyers suddenly launched an attack on the northern border of the Alfalfa Hills. The Imperial Army of Pavement Ants, which was caught off guard, had not yet withdrawn from the territory of the former Argentine Ant Kingdom in the southwest of the hills, and failed to deploy a defense line in time. In response to the battle, they were defeated again and again, their troops suffered serious losses, and a large area of territory on the Alfalfa Hills was lost again.
The Pavement Ant Imperial Army once again sent the third batch of reinforcements to the Alfalfa Hills. Including the previous troops, the total force was nearly 2 million. Without strong national power, there was no way to persist on the meat grinder battlefield of the Alfalfa Hills.
This large army gathered in the southeast of the Alfalfa Hills and established a line of defense to temporarily stabilize the situation.
Before winter, the Pavement Ant Imperial Army and the Destroyers fought 4 large-scale battles. Each side won 2 games. The Destroyers still failed to break through the southeastern defense line of Alfalfa Hills. The Pavement Ant Imperial Army achieved a tactical victory. !
After four battles, the Destroyer's losses amounted to more than 200,000, and the Pavement Ant Imperial Army lost one-third.
However, tactical victory no longer means much. As winter approaches, the balance of war gradually tilts towards the Destroyer!
During the winter, the Destroyers received support from the rear, and their number gradually increased to 500,000, and they began to actively and frequently attack the defense lines of the Pavement Ant Empire.
Although the Pavement Ant Warriors can be active outside in winter when the weather is good, their slave warriors, vassal warriors, and war beasts are unable to fight. Their adaptability to winter weather and terrain is far inferior to that of the Destroyers, and their combat effectiveness in winter is greatly reduced.
Moreover, the weather was not good for most of this winter, so the Pavement Ant Imperial Army could only be scattered in various nests along the long defense line, and were defeated one by one by the Destroyers!
Throughout the winter, the Destroyers had completely demolished the Pavement Ant Imperial Army's defense line on the Alfalfa Hills.
After the beginning of spring, the remaining imperial army of less than 200,000 pavement ants wisely and quickly gathered in the mature nests closest to the mainland to wait for reinforcements. It wasn't until May that this precarious nest waited for reinforcements to rescue it.
The fourth batch of Pavement Ant Imperial Army reinforcements also amounted to 2 million people. After the siege was lifted, they defeated the Destroyer army and pushed part of the front back to the position before winter.
However, this last main force on the Clover Hills was too far alone and failed to deploy troops nearby, so they were all gathered together. They also don't know the current specific strength of the Destroyer.
The destroyers on the Alfalfa Hills now number in the millions!
Starting in June, the Destroyers launched attacks from all directions on the areas controlled by the Pavement Ant Empire. At this time, the "Three Kings" and "Six Kings" of the Pavement Ant Empire suddenly realized the danger and tried to order the frontline troops to retreat. .
It was too late. The route of retreat for the Pavement Ant Imperial Army was immediately cut off by the Destroyer, and the dilapidated mature nest that they had held on to for a long time was also lost. The fifth batch of reinforcements in the rear are still gathering, and there is no time to support them!
The Pavement Ant Imperial Army was forced to hold on without any rear support while constantly attacking towards the homeland, trying to open a way to retreat.
The difficult retreat lasted for 2 months. The Pavement Ant Empire Army could not complete the journey of just over 1 kilometer. Soldiers continued to die on the road, dying in battle, dying of hunger, and dying of disease!
In early August, the Destroyers launched a general attack on the surrounded Pave Ant Imperial Army. Millions of Pave Ant Imperial Army soldiers resisted for a week in the narrow open-air camp until the entire army was annihilated. All members died heroically in the battle. The nearest nest is less than 200 meters away from the mainland!
But their sacrifices were not in vain. The time gained in this final battle allowed the fifth batch of reinforcements from the Pavement Ant Empire Army to complete their assembly, rush to a certain swamp in front of the Alfalfa Hills, and establish a new line of defense in time!
