On May 19, it had been sunny for two days. The sun was shining high in the sky, and a few big white clouds were floating and changing.
The humidity in the air has not dropped significantly yet, and it is filled with mist, vaguely reflecting the shadow of a midsummer sauna day.
The sun penetrated the clouds and shone on the ground, still bringing a lot of heat, so the mud on the ground was slightly relieved. The surface in some high places was completely dry, and the water in the low-lying areas was slowly disappearing.
Under the cover of mist and dense green plants, a group of ants are quietly lurking among them. These are prepared for an ambush
The hometown army of "Orange Crab" consists of three armies, including: 50 flying knights led by "Spider Wolf II", 500 fully equipped warriors of the God Envoy King,
"Wang Zuo"'s 1,000 elite soldiers and
"Mustard Seed" has 1,500 soldiers. These troops have reached the limit that the alliance can mobilize in a hurry. More troops cannot arrive in time from distant lairs, and large-scale and high-frequency movements will also alert other Destroyers.
However, the current assembly of these troops has basically included
"Wang Zuo" and
The most elite force under the "Mustard Seed" command, some elite soldiers even arrived at their destination just yesterday, day and night.
This ambush field is not big, and the soldiers in this battle are more valuable than more expensive. The commanders still understand this reason. Because the current alliance system in the homeland is loose, the three armies have not received joint operation drills before, although they all have their own origins. The legions of the Divine Envoy King came out of their homeland, but their subsequent experiences were different, and it was difficult to directly integrate them.
The "Spider Wolf II" unit grew up after following Zhu Jue's departure. The melee troops have been equipped with iron armor and are tactically accustomed to fighting in arrays with fire cover. The infantry's tactical role is mainly to maintain the front line. Complete without seeking to kill.
Although the soldiers still master
"Razor Tactics", but the proficiency in melee combat has declined compared to its peak. However, due to the size and strength developed through adequate nutrition, as well as the advantages brought by training and equipment, their individual strength is still the first among the three armies.
The "Wang Zuo" unit basically maintains the organization and tactics of the old God's Envoy King's Legion, with melee infantry being the only main force.
Although the source of copper weapons has been lost,
The elite soldiers under "Wang Zuo" rely on picking up leaks from old battlefields and using inventory, and there are a few workers who know how to repair bronzes. However, they are all equipped with copper jaw knives, and the armor coverage rate of bronze armor is also still there. one third.
So is this army
The troops are the most proficient in using "razor tactics", and their daily training is maintained at a high level. Their combat power is about 70 to 80% of the peak combat power of the God's Envoy King's army in his homeland.
The military system of "Mustard Seed" is the most backward and has even degraded a lot compared to when the force was established.
This has a lot to do with their habit of hiding in hiding when facing the Destroyer, their relationship with the remaining surrounding forces, and their long-term sparse battle formations.
Anyway, under the suppression of the local destroyers, the homeland presents a strange state of peace.
On the contrary, the "Mustard Seed" unit rarely needs military operations. The military training of its soldiers is mainly completed by hunting prey. The military tactics have degenerated to the point where they are almost the same as those of ordinary barbaric ant tribes.
The "razor tactics" have been lost for a long time. There are still a small number of copper armor and copper weapons, but they are all equipped to the male ants, and the army is completely armor-free.
In this way, the equipment, training and tactics of the three armies are all different. If they are forced to join together without warm-up, they will only restrain themselves. The three commanders recognized this and agreed to divide the troops.
The division of troops does not mean fighting separately, but they are distributed in three directions of the ambush site. They undertake different tactical tasks but cooperate with each other. Their goal is still only one: kill the animal.
"Orange Crab"! in,
The "Mustard Seed" troops are ambushing the south-west defense line. They will cut off
"Orange Crab"'s escape route.
"Wang Zuo"'s headquarters is in the northeast, blocking the exit.
The "Spider Wolf II" warlord acted as the main attack in the northwest. The ambush battlefield chosen was a higher place in the nearby terrain, with sparse vegetation, dry ground and good visibility, but the surrounding vegetation was dense and conducive to cover.
Normally
The "Orange Crab" and its guards would not choose such a route,
"Orange Crab" seems to be very dependent on water. Once it leaves an area with water for a long time, it will move slowly. This is also
The reason why the "orange crab" usually lives in the swamp but chooses the waterfront as its route of action. They also try to choose low-lying, wet terrain when marching.
However, since this area is mainly composed of undulating rocky landforms, the area near this location is relatively the flattest, so naturally it becomes
The "Orange Crab" needs to climb a certain path. After climbing over this small hill, the big lake is close to Chichi. If you take a detour, it will take an extra day or two.
Topographic factors, forcing
The "Orange Crab" is moving on this path of death that it doesn't know about! Confirmed through intelligence for several days in a row
After the purpose of "Orange Crab", familiar with the local terrain
"Mustard Seed" pointed out that this location is most suitable as a battlefield. The three commanders unanimously agreed on this judgment after conducting an advance survey - here must be the damned bird.
Where the body of the "Orange Crab" rotted! even if
"Orange Crab" is also surrounded by Destroyer guards, but the slingshot is already spinning - it is not allowed to be fired. The three armies are rubbing their jaws together, excitedly waiting for this battle!
for
For "Spider Wolf II", this battle is very crucial. If he can kill the endless stream of Destroyers,
"Orange Crab", the destroyer of this area, has become a sourceless water, and one of them will die in a short period of time. And it will be a great addition to his plan to unify his homeland.
for
As for "Wang Zuo", he hates the Destroyer so much that his jaw itch. He has wanted to destroy these invaders for a long time. This time he finally saw the dawn of hope.
"Mustard Seed" felt that this battle was the most dispensable in his heart. Now he has understood that he just misjudged before and the Destroyer did not target him.
But the alliance has been made,
"Mustard" still has respect for the departed God Envoy King, and he continues to express his willingness to participate.
The three commanders, who had their own thoughts but the same goal, boldly set up an ambush even though their strength advantage on the battlefield was not particularly obvious.
In addition to their firm will, the three commanders are not reckless ants. They obviously have their own strengths to rely on!
When the three armies got the information from the Flying Knights and entered the ambush position, they waited for about 10 degrees of sun movement before the target finally appeared.
At the foot of the hill, among the rugged rocks and tough grass, a huge, ugly
The abominable drive of the "Orange Crab" was exposed, slowly climbing under the wings of black shadows, preparing to cross this final obstacle.
