"Dong Mao" inherited Zhu Jue's night vision ability, and he stared coldly at the depression under the moonlight.
As the water began to pour into the underground lair, a few Destroyers occasionally rushed out against the current, swimming precariously in the water, as if they wanted to build an escape bridge, just like they once did on the river. as done on.
But the number of these Destroyers was too small. The water flow at the entrance of the lair suddenly narrowed and became very turbulent. The tension of the water film on which the Destroyers relied to float was completely destroyed. Naturally, these sporadic Destroyers were quickly dispersed and disappeared underground again.
Later, as the water surface gradually rose and completely submerged the floor of the nest, no living Destroyer was seen coming out. Occasionally, one or two bodies would float out accompanied by the bubbles of Gudu Gudu. A motionless floating corpse.
The defenders of the base area did not waste a single soldier, and completely trapped 40,000 Destroyers underground due to floods. Some cavitations may have formed underground, and a few Destroyers could survive until the water pools dried up, but they It can no longer affect the situation of the battle!
It's a pity that such a water attack tactic requires the right time and place and cannot be used at any time, otherwise the civilized ants would really have hope of defeating the Destroyer.

At dawn, the large troops from the base area who arrived in the dark gathered at the water's edge that had returned to its original state. After leaving a small group of troops to monitor, the army followed the path the Destroyer came from and counterattacked into the Destroyer's control area!
In the next few days, this base-area force that implemented the side-by-side tactics was unstoppable, and soon entered the depths of the Destroyer-controlled area.
However, there were not many battles along the way. The Destroyer had very few troops left in the controlled area. Sometimes, we could walk for almost an entire day without encountering a single nest guarded by the Destroyer. The wilderness was full of lush vegetation and Insects, there are abandoned ant nests everywhere along the way, forming a sharp contrast between vitality and lifelessness.
The largest battle that broke out in the past few days was when the army of Destroyers that had been wiped out by the water attack turned back to the transport team that was transporting the corpses, and a battle broke out with the oncoming base area troops. In the end, this army of Destroyers was completely destroyed. Annihilate. In other places, the most encountered Destroyers are only a hundred or so. No matter how strong the individual soldiers are, they are not a threat!
Seeing the flanging troops causing trouble behind the Destroyers, the Destroyers attacking the base showed no signs of returning due to the counterattack in the control area. They seemed to be pre-programmed machines and continued to attack without any distractions. base area plan.
The remaining defenders in the base area resisted tenaciously, trying to use internal maneuvers to hold back the Destroyers, and even killed a few lone Destroyers. It's just that such containment and small-scale advantages are too powerless in the face of the Destroyer's overwhelming offensive!
On September 17, the North Valley defense line was broken! On September 18, [Ya Zi City] fell! On September 21st, all the main lairs in the northern base area fell! On September 22, the main force of the defenders in the southeastern base area was forced to break out of the encirclement at the cost of half of their lives, and entered the complex mountainous area to temporarily avoid the enemy's edge! On September 25, the main force of the defenders in the southwest base area was accidentally surrounded, and the entire army was wiped out the next day! On September 26, the support troops sent by the Black Fire Ant Defense Line assisted some of the remaining troops in the base area to return to the defense line!
At this point, there are not many organized and resisting troops in the base area. They are basically small troops of two or three legions. They rely on the guidance of the Flying Knight to continuously avoid the enemy's tracks. They use the terrain of the base area to deal with the Destroyer, basically losing the mobile warfare. The ability is limited to small-scale guerrilla attacks.
Seeing that the Destroyer did not return, "Dongmao" and "Red Land" and other ants discussed it and dispersed the flange troops according to the instructions from Zhu Jue. Taking advantage of the emptiness behind the Destroyer, they quickly expanded the occupied area. At the same time, The nests were built separately, and the newly married queen was flown in from the Ant United Kingdom. She is likely to take root here and change homes with the Destroyer!
"Dongmao" and other departments did not change homes blindly. The new nest locations are basically located in mountainous areas and swamps with complex terrain. Although the productivity is limited, they are easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if the Destroyer comes back to his senses and wants to attack, he will Facing a lot of trouble. And the longer these lairs in new base areas can persist, the more they can hold back the Destroyer's advance!

On the battlefield of the original base area, the Destroyers were still struggling to deal with the entanglement of the guerrillas and would not be able to return within a few days.
Relying on side tactics and guerrilla tactics, hundreds of thousands of Destroyers were entangled for more than a month. Finally, relying on dragnet tactics, they completely wiped out all the corners of the base area. By this point, most of the guerrillas in the base area had been lost, and the remaining Take a small road back to the Black Fire Ant Defense Line or the new base area.
In late October, after some rest and recuperation in the original base, the Destroyer army did not choose to turn back and attack the new base established by the "Eastern Mao" and other departments. Instead, they directly rushed towards the black fire ant defense line.
Zhu Jue's civilized ant army has been recuperating here for a long time. The defense line is solid and the supplies are sufficient. Relying on the firepower suppressed by the God Envoy King's army at all costs, after seven days of fierce fighting, the Destroyer Army's offensive was thwarted and most of them were wiped out. The civilized ant coalition immediately attacked in full force, and the defenders of the new base of "Dong Mao" also mobilized in large numbers to cut off the Destroyers' retreat. After another four days of fighting, the 400,000 Destroyers who invaded were finally wiped out!
The coalition forces achieved a long-lost victory, and the rifts within the civilized ant tribe caused by the war situation were temporarily mended!

Zhu Jue had just sent away "Dong Mao" who had returned to life, and he didn't feel very happy when he saw the corpses all over the ground.
This was indeed a great victory, but the Legion of God's Envoy King had won many times against the Destroyer, but they still could only retreat step by step. Even if this victory is larger in scale, in the face of endless destroyers, such a result seems not worth mentioning!
The only good thing is that Zhu Jue proved the feasibility of flouting tactics through the actions of "Eastern Mao" and other departments.
Relying on side tactics, it may not be possible to completely defeat the Destroyer, but at least it can shake the Destroyer's rear, contain its endless troops, and provide great help for frontal combat.
"Dong Mao" has returned to the Ant Alliance, and Zhu Juexugong promoted him to the commander-in-chief of the Eastern Front Divine Envoy King's Army. The top commander of the recently established new base has become the army ant male "Red Ground".
At the same time, most of the elites in the new base area have been transferred back. Instead, a large number of young ants of various races have been moved overland to enrich the nests in the base area. Zhu Jue didn't know that the new base area was still useful, but he still weakened the power of the new base area without hesitation.
There is no other reason, but winter is coming...
