After bidding farewell to "Spider Wolf II", Zhu Jue took advantage of his temporary free time and immediately flew to the northernmost nest of the Ant Alliance with his personal guards.
This nest has changed its owner several times in history and has experienced many wars. It has been successively captured by the red fire ant kingdom, the leafcutter ant kingdom, the pavement ant empire, etc. After the remnants of the pavement ant empire surrendered last year, the ant alliance fought without a fight. He took over this lair, which was of great strategic location and symbolic significance, and gradually used it as the first line of defense against the Destroyers moving south in the future.
Compared to the Western Front, where the fierce fighting is raging, the Northern Front seems calm. Whether before winter or after spring, it looks more like a busy construction site than a frontline fortress.
The settlement of tens of thousands of big-headed ants and other ants gave this original tree nest the architectural style of the Ant Mound Fortress of the Ant Alliance. It is now divided into a new city and an old city. The old city is on the tree and has been widened and expanded. During the reconstruction, the new city was built at the roots of the trees, and a circle of ant mounds, city walls, and trenches were built around the trunks. It was connected to the old city through several tunnels hidden under the bark of the trees. The old city and the new city are at the horns of each other.
But the protagonist knows, and the soldiers and civilians here also know that not far to the north, across the dry and barren gravel land where the indigenous silver ant tribe lives, hundreds of thousands of Destroyers are gathering there!
Therefore, even during the busiest times of construction and foraging, there are still flying knights and scouts scattered in all directions, alert to the possible invasion of the Destroyer at any time.
If these hundreds of thousands of Destroyers move south, Zhu Jue's most optimistic estimate is that the Ant Alliance can only gradually resist, and even if it can finally maintain peace, even if it achieves its goal, if it is not possible, it may even have to give up the north bank of Qinghe River and stick to the territory on the south bank of Qinghe River. You must know that on the northern front, the Ant Alliance has no allies except the not-powerful Leafcutter Ant Nation, and lacks geographical advantages. It is obviously difficult to block the Destroyer's offensive.
Fortunately, although these destroyers are close at hand, they have never shown any sign of going south - they are contained by the holy land of the pavement ants inherited by the Nuclear God!
Last year, after the Nuclear God Pavement Ant clan surrendered, the Pavement Ant Wise Man led a group of flying knights into the Holy Land. According to the description of the flying knight who reported back, countless layers of Destroyers surrounded this small holy land, but they did not dare to attack. All the Destroyers who came close to the Holy Land died violently, and the corpses piled up on the ground were like mountains and seas.
Zhu Jue knew that this was the power of nuclear radiation, because even several of the flying knights who returned soon began to fall off their limbs and tentacles, and soon their carapace cracked, pus oozed, and they bled to death. This symptom was consistent with the characteristics of radiation sickness. Coupled with the unique symbol of the Holy Land, its meaning is self-evident. Later, Zhu Jue drove all the flying knights involved in the operation away from the densely populated ant nests, leaving them to fend for themselves in remote nests to avoid causing secondary pollution.
However, some flying knights did not show obvious radiation symptoms, and the aging Pavement Ant Wise Man even became more energetic after returning. It is not known whether it was Zhu Jue's own illusion.
But through this operation, Zhu Jue can roughly judge that the intensity of nuclear radiation near the holy land is very strong, enough to kill the approaching Destroyer instantly, but it seems to cause much less damage to ordinary ants, especially the Nuclear God Paving Ant clan. Has extremely strong radiation resistance.
Zhu Jue speculated that it may be because the Destroyer is not a naturally born ant, but a creature created through genetic editing, so its DNA structure is very fragile, and it is far more susceptible to genetic collapse than ordinary creatures under large doses of radiation. This was just a flash of thought in Zhu Jue's mind, but he believed it deeply.
The Nuclear God Pavement Ant clan has been exposed to nuclear radiation for a long time, and has developed resistance passed down from generation to generation. They would even deliberately put ant eggs into holy places, and use nuclear radiation to cause a high probability of mutation to create new types of soldiers. This is how the flying "mosquitoes" were born. It's just that such mutations are uncontrollable. Most of them die immediately or develop harmful mutations. Individuals with a few beneficial mutations are rarely able to stably pass their traits to their offspring.
Zhu Jue originally thought that the power that the Paving Ant Wise Men pointed to that could defeat the Destroyer was radiation itself, but after many communications, Zhu Jue realized that what the Paving Ant Wise Men actually wanted to rely on was radiation mutation. He suggested that Zhu Jue throw a large number of ant eggs of all races into the Holy Land to win by force and see what kind of powerful troops he could get in the end.
When Zhu Jue figured it out at the time, his head was full of black lines. This was a matter of completely relying on probability, and history has proven that the probability is as low as a person winning the lottery jackpot three times in a row. He Don't dare to put all your hopes on this.
Zhu Jue had other plans for the use of the Nuclear Holy Land. He initially wanted to use a strategy to introduce the Destroyers into the lethal radiation dose range of the Holy Land, so as to eliminate some Destroyers without a single blow. Unexpectedly, the radar destroyers in the enemy formation were already well aware of the strangeness here. No matter how hard they tried to seduce the flying knights, they still refused to send troops to cross the cordon composed of corpses.
When Zhu Jue's plan failed, he made another plan. He wanted to kill the Radar Destroyer by beheading him first, and then lure the ordinary Destroyer who had lost his command into the vicinity of the Holy Land to die. Unfortunately, the radar destroyer was surrounded by tight defenses, and this strategy failed.
Zhu Jue was afraid that the non-combat losses would be too great, and he did not dare to allow too many flying knights to be stationed around the nuclear sacred site and suffer the effects of radiation. After several attempts failed, he had to call them all back.
Later, before the winter of last year, Zhu Jue organized air transportation and sent a group of pavement ant soldiers and a small number of ant eggs to the Holy Land to strengthen the power of the place, just with the idea of trying to cultivate new troops. But after waiting for the beginning of spring, Zhu Jue received information from the Holy Land. As expected, these ant eggs with no radiation resistance all died!
Fortunately, Zhu Jue had other plans at this time. Before the war on the Western Front started, Zhu Jue transferred almost all the domestic transportation forces to the north. A large number of soldiers of the Nuclear God Paving Ant clan who had surrendered to the Ant Alliance were killed. Airlifted here, waiting to be airlifted back to home country.
Zhu Jue got inspiration from "Wang Zuo" and the base areas behind enemy lines on the Western Front before winter. Since the troops of "Wang Zuo" can develop and grow under the eyes of the Destroyers, since the base areas behind enemy lines on the Western Front can contain and eliminate a large number of Destroyers , then this tactic can also be replicated on the northern front.
Especially in today's original territory of the Pavement Ant Empire, there are still a large number of surviving forces scattered throughout. Their loyalty to the Emperor and the Wise Men has not been lost, and a large number of Destroyers have been attracted to the Holy Land, leaving a void of troops!
There is obviously a lot to be done to engage in a war behind enemy lines here!
