there is always a solution to a problem!
The outcome of such a large-scale battle is already a competition between the comprehensive strength and willpower of the two armies. The space for tactics and strategies to be used is very limited. After all, if the front cannot be held, there will be no basis for any clever tricks.
As a result, under the devastating attacks of the Destroyers one after another, the civilized ant coalition forces also continued to invest in reserves, firmly holding the front line against the main city wall. The two armies fought desperately, with no one willing to take a step back. The war reached a fever pitch on this day! !
Every minute and every second, lives are withering on the battlefield, and a layer of corpses slowly accumulates on the ground, especially the closer to the city wall, the denser they become. At the foot of the city wall, the fallen or thrown corpses had piled up into a gentle slope, which made the subsequent destructive and more convenient climb easier.
In front of the city wall, the charred ditch was still steaming with residual heat. It was the color of the fuel inside that had been ignited a while ago. It was the color of smoke and fire, and it was also the color of twisted and withered corpses.
As for the roar of artillery fire, the smoke, the flash of fire and the tearing of flesh, both parties involved in the war have quickly adapted.
In the afternoon, the last and most important fortification outside the main city wall was captured by the Destroyer. The barrier in front of the city wall was gone, and the Destroyer could finally attack the main city wall with all his strength without any scruples.
This large-scale fortification that finally fell was stationed with a legion of Angel King warriors, as well as accompanying artillery and allied troops, and a total of 4,000 ants. This fortification is located in the flattest part outside the main city wall, and is the only barrier of the main city wall in this area. When the Destroyers bypassed this area to attack the city wall, they were killed a lot by the back fire from the fortification.
Now, this place has fallen. Only a few hundred artillerymen hurriedly evacuated from the tunnel, and the artillery did not have time to move. All the commanders of the remaining troops connected with the fortress were killed in the battle. The Destroyer flattened all the buildings here like venting his anger, and now the tall body of the main city wall was unreservedly exposed in front of the Destroyer.

Zhu Jue was sitting in the command post. Although he was in the anthill tower, the slightly flowing air still carried the noise and bloody smell of the battlefield not far away, reminding him that the threat was very close.
Although there is no map in front of Zhu Jue, the information package in his mind contains all the battlefield information, forming a living map. The staff constantly sent the latest military information. After Zhu Jue received it through the tentacles or the cobblestone "computer line" next to him, he would adjust the map in his mind in time, giving him an unobstructed view of the battlefield situation.
It was precisely because of the unobstructed view that he knew how bad the situation of the battle was - this Great Wall defense line, which had been in operation for a long time and had high hopes, was indeed performing better than the previous defense line so far, but it seemed not enough to prevent destruction. By.
Before the Great Wall Defense Battle began, another coalition force led by the Black Fire Ant Army launched an encirclement and suppression campaign against the remnants of the Destroyers who had penetrated deep into the vicinity of [Black Fire City] last winter. It was this battle that triggered the Destroyer's attack on the Great Wall. A comprehensive attack on the Great Wall defense line. Not long ago, news came from the Black Fire Ant Kingdom that they had wiped out this stubborn army.
Previously, some leaders of the civilized ant tribe, as well as some senior generals in the army, believed that as long as this group of destroyers was annihilated, the destroyers who attacked the Great Wall defense line would retreat. But now the Destroyer's offensive shows no sign of weakening. Instead, more and more Destroyer groups that have not participated in the war are entering the battlefield one after another, and the scope of the battle is gradually expanding.
The slim hope that the enemy troops would retreat on their own was shattered. Two days of fierce fighting had already caused some of the male ant leaders of the civilized ant tribe who had never faced the terror of the Destroyer to collapse. The war they had seen since childhood had never been like this. Although it is still cruel, it will not make the ants powerless and desperate like now!
Therefore, at the urgent meeting of the battlefield civilization ant tribe that just started, some male ant representatives advocated being prepared for the fall of the "Great Wall Defense Line". These representatives hoped to withdraw the main force to the main nest of the Black Fire Ant Kingdom [Black Fire City]. Even the border lair of the Ant Alliance [Western City] was re-defended. These two places also have geographical advantages, and supplies are more convenient. They can also rely on distance to temporarily avoid the enemy's edge.
There are many ant representatives who support this idea, most of them are the leaders of the subjugated ant tribe who have been frightened out of their wits. Among the four major powerful factions among the civilized ant tribes in this region, the United Ant Nation, the Black Fire Ant Nation, and the Leaf-Cutter Ant Nation all clearly oppose it and advocate sticking to the Great Wall defense line. The Maolin Ant Nation does not have much military power on the Western Front battlefield, so it does not have much say.
The black fire ant country will naturally oppose this proposition, because this proposition means that half or even all of the black fire ant country will give up resistance. The leafcutter ant nation is also unwilling to move forward with the Destroyer front that can cross the river, threatening its own territory on the other side of the river. Zhu Jue represents the opinions of the ant alliance. He knows that the Great Wall defense line has not yet reached the point where it cannot hold on. He also knows that after a series of failures, the civilized ant alliance can no longer retreat. If it retreats further, it will be doomed!

Now, a victory is needed to boost the morale of the coalition forces!
But it’s easier said than done…
In the afternoon, the ants marching in the ant kingdom, who were out of breath under the huge military pressure, did not obey Zhu Jue's order, nor did they inform other allies, and attacked rashly from the northern defense line that had not yet been attacked.
Although the territory was completely lost, the Marching Ant Kingdom successfully evacuated a large number of ant colonies, so its military strength ranked third among the coalition forces at the Great Wall. After reorganization and transfer in the winter, there are still a total of 200,000 soldiers, who are the defenders of the Great Wall. An important force in the military.
At this time, half of the marching ant army launched a counterattack without a clue or a clear purpose, and was immediately surrounded by several groups of Destroyers in the field. The besieged army of army ants is unable to escape from the conflict, and is also being attacked by the Destroyer. It is in danger!
After receiving the report, Zhu Jue was so shocked that he left the command post directly. After flying in the sky to inspect the situation, although he knew that nothing could be done, in order to stabilize his allies, he still sent a mobile force out to rescue. Only he did not send out tank troops.
The rescue operation failed as expected. After losing several elite corps, the reinforcements consisting of the God Envoy King Army, the Marching Ant Army, and the Leaf-Cutter Ant Army could only withdraw under the cover of the air force and artillery. At dusk, the surrounded army of army ants had been slaughtered, and the Destroyer's invincible field strength was once again fully demonstrated in this battle!
At this time, nearly half of the defenders on the northern line of the Great Wall were lost. Three of the seven "King Khans" who led the marching ant army were killed in battle, and two were ordered to be executed for arbitrarily advocating an attack. Most of their command system was also paralyzed. Zhu Jue could only use his precious reserve power to deal with the Destroyer's subsequent attack.
At this point, the battle to defend the Great Wall defense line begins!
