On October 5th, the civilized ant coalition launched the final general attack on the Destroyer trapped in the lonely nest.
This time the Destroyers did not try to resist above the surface. The coalition troops divided into multiple routes and went directly into the underground from the entrances of various lairs.
"Madman" observed the smoke attack tactics when he was cooperating with the Rangers last time. He was very interested in this kind of bloodless killing. In the past two days, he has been suggesting that Zhu Jue also conduct a smoke attack. General of the Stone Desert Archback Ant Empire They also agreed, comparing this tactic to their "Sun God Artifact" and giving it a very high evaluation. However, "Rambotu III" on the front line reported that the soil on the top of the mountain was too shallow and there were too many stones, making it difficult to dig a burning pit of sufficient size. The vegetation near the top of the mountain was also sparse, and the grass, fuel and smoke-generating materials needed to be transported from the mountainside. Even searching outside the mountain was too much, so Zhu Jue decisively gave up the smoke attack plan.
The coalition forces that entered the ground were quickly blocked by the Destroyers. In the narrow street battles that were difficult to detour, it was obvious that under normal circumstances it would be difficult for most civilized ant troops to break through the Destroyer's defenses in close combat. However, the civilized ant coalition is no longer what it used to be. Their biggest reliance is firepower, which can exert sufficient power in street fighting.
Each coalition army is assigned the fire support force of the God's Envoy Army. These artillerymen carry guns on their backs, or work together to carry a millet cannon, and follow the forward troops in the lanes. Once encountering the Destroyer, the forward troops quickly pressed against the wall to leave a shooting space, while the artillerymen fired their pre-loaded guns at the target. Although the small-caliber gun and artillery shells were only solid bullets, they were enough to penetrate the Destroyer's body. A bloody passage penetrated the formation. Sometimes the cannonballs will hit hard rocks and ricochet around, which amplifies the power.
There are only a few or a dozen Destroyers scattered and guarded in most locations. After being weakened, they will be taken advantage of by the coalition's forward troops to break through. If there are a large number of Destroyers or they are more tenacious in some locations, the vanguard warriors of the coalition forces also carry fire bomb slings issued by the Angel King's Legion, which can add a wave of firepower. This kind of ammunition, once ignited, is difficult to extinguish before burning out. Even the Destroyer has a biological instinct to fear fire, which can often block the Destroyer's counterattack and stick to it like a maggot attached to the bone. The target remains burned until it burns out.
As the Ant Alliance gradually transitions to a wartime system, the production of many weapons has increased significantly. Weapons such as fire bombs and slings, which are effective and simple in craftsmanship and have been tested in actual combat, now have sufficient production capacity to support their allies without feeling distressed. level, and unlike artillery and rocket launchers that have high requirements on operators, they also have to worry about technical leaks and other issues. At present, the total reserve of fire bombs and slings of the Western Expeditionary Army reaches more than one million, and each soldier can get one on average. This time, 100,000 slings have been allocated for use in the general attack. What a wealthy man!
Therefore, on the underground battlefield, the tunnels and nest chambers that have been dark all year round have never been as bright as they are today in many years. The dim light from countless fire bombs lit up the ant nest little by little, and gradually moved deeper into the nest. Extending everywhere, it is the coalition front that is advancing, and it is also the Destroyer's defense line that is being compressed step by step.
Even if the Destroyer is fearless and fearless, it now has no numerical advantage and is being suppressed by the coalition's firepower. No matter how hard the Radar Destroyer is, it is still reeling and retreating step by step. The ordinary ant forces would have thought of escaping or surrendering, but the Destroyers never had a second choice and were still stubbornly resisting.
When the battle continued into the second day, the Destroyers had lost three-quarters of their lair positions, and the few remaining troops and radar destroyers were trapped in the last section of their lair. In the final stages, the Destroyer's resistance became more frantic, and the coalition's advance slowed down again. There was even a scene where the Radar Destroyer actively self-destructed after being caught, implicating dozens of surrounding coalition soldiers.
Seeing that the soldiers of all races have grown up in the battle, they are no longer as afraid of the Destroyer as before, and the main battle goal has been achieved. Zhu Jue does not want to continue to waste time and troops, so he allows the coalition forces to retreat slightly and hold on. several key intersections and blocked the remaining passages.
Subsequently, barrels of grease were transported from the base camp to the underground front line, and barrels of grease were poured into the final lair where the Destroyer was trapped. These oils are mainly inedible vegetable oils, which come from common plants in the wild such as castor. In the past, castor oil was used as a lubricant for artillery or machinery, and it has gradually been hoarded.
Not a small batch. This time, Zhu Jue made use of all of them. He had stored them here after long-distance transportation, just for a feast of burning destroyers!
Even though the area controlled by the Destroyer is already very small, it cannot be completely filled with castor oil, otherwise the light flood will also drown the Destroyer. Most of the oil is absorbed by the relatively dry ground, and the oil that cannot be adsorbed continues to flow downward. Then the coalition forces threw in dry and chopped firewood to replenish the fuel gap and use it as ignition. They also thoughtfully expanded the original vents of the nest, and then the entire army evacuated in an emergency.
The Destroyers didn't know what to pursue, and the Radar Destroyers didn't even realize what the greasy liquid dripping on them meant. They just regarded it as a normal encounter on a rainy day and insisted on holding on to the end.
But as the warriors of the God's Envoy King ignited the long fuses and ran towards the ground crazily, just a moment later, a thick smoke mixed with fire suddenly penetrated the ground from several holes, and the excessive combustibles actually It caused a deflagration in an instant, and soon turned into a smoldering fire due to insufficient oxygen supply. The underground has turned into a scorching purgatory that is most suitable for the Destroyer to survive, and there are continuous and wonderful explosions, which are the mysterious balls in the Radar Destroyer's body being ignited by the high temperature.
The coalition troops guarded the entrance and exit on the ground, but were soon forced to retreat due to the temperature coming from under their feet. The heat coming from near the entrance and exit of the nest also caused the surrounding grass to visibly wilt. It was not until the morning of October 7 that the temperature dropped. to a tolerable range.
A team of capable teams smeared protective animal fat and got into the ground. The temperature got higher as they went down, but it was equivalent to the temperature on a stone at noon in summer. Although it was unbearable, they could still move.
The ground was a mess, littered with the roasted corpses of Destroyers, or corpses that had been blown apart after being killed in explosions. The few survivors hiding in favorable terrain basically lost their combat effectiveness and were quickly eliminated.
As a large number of Destroyer corpses and body parts were cleared out, and a Jingguan was piled on the ground, the battle came to an end.
