The battle ended for more than ten days, but Zhu Jue still stayed on the Western Front at this time, only occasionally flying back to the country to deal with some important matters, or flying to [Liu San City] to participate in the intensive official meeting of the civilized ant tribe.
A few days ago, the arrogant Destroyer finally suffered a huge defeat in the land between the two rivers, which is also the land where Zhu Jue is now stepping on. This glorious victory was Zhu Jue's biggest victory since he faced the Destroyer, which greatly enhanced his prestige and voice within the civilized ant tribe.
Although the main force of this battle was undoubtedly the parasitic army, the civilized ant coalition only blocked one side of the river and repelled a few Destroyers who tried to break out. There were also small-scale conflicts with the de facto "allies" the parasitic creatures. In the battle After the actual positive and negative effects are offset, the credit will be very little, but this does not prevent the civilized ants from treating the credit as their own.
News of the great victory spread back to the rear, and people from all ethnic groups and places rejoiced. In addition to Zhu Jue, the other tribes who sent troops also shared the credit.
Nowadays, there is no corpse of the Destroyer in this land. There is no trace of the battle in the past few days. The corpse has long been thrown into the river and washed away by the current. On this land, a large number of sharp-tailed ants are building their new homes. This place now belongs to the newly restored nation of sharp-tailed ants!
Not only the sharp-tailed ants, but also the army ants, thin-footed ants, honeypot ants and other tribes that had been defeated in the past have also returned to their countries. The land they relied on to restore their countries was the result of victory after this battle.
After the battle, all the Destroyers on the battlefield were wiped out, but there were still several Destroyer teams ranging from tens of thousands to one hundred thousand in the west heading towards the battlefield. After sensing the collapse of the main force, these Destroyer reinforcements turned around and withdrew without hesitation. Under Zhu Jue's persuasion, the parasitic army pursued westward and northward with the momentum of "it is better to leave the remaining brave men to chase the poor bandits". Go, at this time, they have entered the hinterland plains of the original marching army ant country to fight.
After the destroyers and parasitic armies left, the large area of land from the southeastern border of the original army ant country to the middle of the black fire ant country became an unclaimed land. The original master ants, whether they were the army ants or other indigenous barbaric ants, They were basically wiped out by the Destroyer, and the parasitic army did not leave any troops to control this place.
Therefore, with Zhu Jue's proposal and the enthusiastic response of the ants who had lost their country, this unclaimed land became a base for the army ants and other tribes to use to restore their country.
This land is not very vast, less than one-third of the territory of the Marching Ant Kingdom at its peak. But now that the ants of all ethnic groups who have lost their country are withering away, it is rare to have such a piece of land to recuperate and recuperate, so there is no time to be picky.
After several wranglings at the Civilized Ant Tribe Conference, all tribes finally reached an agreement in just 4 days:
The Black Fire Ant Nation has taken back the land they lost before, and the other lands are used for the restoration of the country by various ethnic groups, and the Black Fire Ant Nation no longer covets them.
The army ants obtained the land in the southeastern part of their original territory and a large area of adjacent land, accounting for two-thirds of the total allocable land area. They were the biggest winners. This is because the Army Ant clan has been without the country for the shortest time, was originally the strongest, and has retained the most powerful power among all the clans that have lost the country.
With approximately one-sixth of the allocable land area, the country was the second biggest winner. The honeypot ant tribe, sharp-tailed ant tribe, etc. equally divided the remaining land.
This distribution is basically based on the pre-war and existing strength of each tribe, and also takes into account the contributions of each tribe in previous wars. Moreover, each tribe's restored territory has borders adjacent to other ownerless (savage ant tribe) lands, and will have the opportunity to expand after recuperation. Therefore, all ethnic groups are generally satisfied.
Zhu Jue took this opportunity to propose the restoration of the country to all ethnic groups, and also gained the most sincere support from all ethnic groups, especially those who had lost their country.
Of course, Zhu Jue had other thoughts about this:
For example, such a large piece of land is idle and idle. The Ant Alliance is separated from this place by the Black Fire Ant Nation. It is impossible to come all the way to occupy it. Instead of taking advantage of the Black Fire Ant Nation and allowing it to grow in the future, it may propose to disobey the Ant Alliance. The idea is that it is better to be a smooth ant, which can not only balance the power of all races, ensure that the ant alliance in the region is dominant, but also gain grateful support.
Moreover, honeypot ants and other tribes now live in [Liu San City], while the army ants have no fixed abode, and their production is simply not enough to support their ant colonies. They also need the ant federation, leafcutter ant country, black fire ant country, The four countries of the Maolin ant country come to provide assistance, which will be no small burden in the long run. After all ethnic groups are restored to their own country, the Ant United Kingdom will be able to take off this burden.
In addition, Zhu Jue now focuses the defense of the Western Front of the Ant Alliance on the Great Wall Defense Line, which is being rebuilt and expanded. However, the Great Wall Defense Line is not impregnable, and Zhu Jue does not expect that just one line of defense can stop the Destroyer, even if the Great Wall Defense Line is being rebuilt day and night. construction enhancements. After the restoration of the various ethnic groups, it is equivalent to building a buffer zone outside the Great Wall defense line. After the Destroyer comes back, it can be enough to delay and weaken the Destroyer's offensive. Even if it falls, it can also be used as a guerrilla zone. The effect is undoubtedly huge.
Although the Destroyer suffered a major defeat, it was only a matter of time before they made a comeback. The parasitic army might not be able to withstand the next offensive, nor could it always act as a protective umbrella in front. The civilized ant tribe must prepare for a rainy day.
Although the parasitic army followed Zhu Jue's pursuit this time and did not occupy the land, the parasitic army was not greedy for the land. Zhu Jue also paid a certain price for this. For example, at the request of "Parasite Roll" and others, he secretly provided a group of ant armors, jaw knives, and fire bomb slings to arm elite parasitic ants, and also provided equipment for the parasitic army. The rough and heavy homemade ballistae provided some necessary metal accessories, all of which were carried out without the knowledge of other civilized ants.
Zhu Jue also used lies to convince the Marching Ant Kingdom to stop coveting other parts of its old territory because the parasitic army wanted to control it.
Since these places have lost the sweep and hunt of army ants for a year, and the destroyers have no interest in hunting ordinary insects, they have now become a paradise for a large number of creatures. It is estimated that the number of insects per unit area is higher than during the rule of the army ant kingdom. More than tenfold. After all, in the past, the army ant kingdom relied almost entirely on hunting to obtain food, which caused great damage to the territorial ecology. From this perspective, the Destroyer seems more like the ecological protector of this world...
The parasitic army took a fancy to this land, and in the process of chasing the Destroyer, they also sent many troops to occupy it. On the one hand, they supplied food from the rich flora and fauna, and at the same time, they could also parasitize new life to expand their troops.
Under the coordination, deceit, and intimidation of the long-sleeved Zhu Jue, after driving away the destroyers, it can be said that everyone on this land is happy with the parasitic creatures and the civilized ants.
At least, everyone is happy for the time being!
