After the protagonist returns to Dongyang Castle, he quickly orders all the males to be summoned to a meeting.

However, this meeting was not held until the next morning, because the Third Legion, which was far away in the "Stump Fortress", received the news from the Flying Knight messenger, and even if it immediately sent a male ant representative, it would take more than half a day to travel on the road. In fact, the representative did not arrive until the evening of the same day.

All the males of Dongyang Castle participated in the meeting. The members who participated in this meeting were:

protagonist

The males of the First Legion led by Roll, Rambory, and Rambosser,

The males of the Second Legion led by Rambofo,

The male ant representing Rambovan and the Third Legion,

The males of the Fourth Legion led by Rambotu,

Flying knights led by the Flyhawk and the Nine Warlords (Mantis Tiger, Dung Rhinoceros, Stag Elephant, Armored Ox, Manticore, Mice Lion, Spider Wolf, Centiped, Leopard and Locust Jackal),

and the faculty and staff led by Lan Bofei.

After all the members have arrived, the protagonist announces the start of the meeting, and then conveys the news of the main nest about the new defense plan for this winter.

As for the news of the disappearance of the eldest king, the main nest asks to convey it to all the males in the secondary nest, but the protagonist only passes by. In his opinion, the oldest king should not appear in the most remote area of the kingdom "Dongyang City", and this kind of search for missing people should be left to the senior brother and them as a headache.

For the protagonist and "Dongyang City", the most important thing at the moment is to prepare for the defensive battle for the next winter, as well as the counterattack after the spring of the next year.

After learning that the Divine Envoy King's legion would send three legions to the "Waterfront City" to participate in the battle, the male ants were very excited, and under the influence of their aggressive nature, they wanted to fight now.

Fortunately, the males now have practical experience, and they know that preparing for a big war is not a simple one-time thing. After the protagonist asks everyone to brainstorm ideas, each male ant expresses his attitude and requirements based on his own experience and position.

For example, the legion commanders are more concerned about whether their legions can go to war, after all, there are currently four legions, but only three legions will go to battle.

Male ants such as Lan Bofei who are more thoughtful and meticulous are more concerned about the logistics of the army, and armies with long-range projection weapons such as the Divine Envoy King Legion are very dependent on logistics.

There are also people who are concerned about whether the defenses of "Dongyang City" and "Stump Fortress" will be weakened after the army is dispatched, after all, this place is located on the edge of the kingdom, and the surrounding situation is complicated: the parasitic ants are still nowhere to be found, and the hunting sickle ants are also afraid of the combat effectiveness of the Divine Envoy King's legion, so they do not continue to disturb. If the defenders are empty, who knows what will happen.

The protagonist writes down all these suggestions and doubts, and the ants' brains are so good that although there is no pen and paper, it is difficult to miss or forget the information as long as it is made into an information package.

Next, the male ant meeting discussed various matters and continuously supplemented and improved the expedition plan. Fortunately, with such a transcendent supporter and adjudicator as the protagonist, many controversial agenda items can be quickly passed.

After nearly a day of meeting, a consensus was basically reached that the Divine Envoy King's army would make pre-battle preparations according to the following arrangements:

1. The armies that went out this time were the first, second, and fourth legions of the Divine Messenger King, and the commanders remained the same, which were still Roll, Rambofo, and Rambotu.

The Expeditionary Corps must remove the older Soldier Ants from the ranks, replenish the young Soldier Ants, and start training immediately.

2. Rambovan led the Third Army to stay behind in the "Stump Fortress", which is currently the most likely location for military conflicts, and the general needs to lead the veteran soldiers to defend it.

3. The formation of the Dongyang City Garrison Corps, the same establishment as the normal corps, is also thirty squads, and the commander is Lan Bofei. However, considering that Lan Bofei still has a lot of administrative teaching tasks, Lan Borui was assigned as an adjutant and was responsible for the daily training of the legion.

This legion will have the older veterans who have been dismissed from other legions as the backbone, and will join a large number of newly recruited soldiers, whose main duty is to stay in the base camp where the army is slightly empty after the expedition.

Although this legion is newly established, and the level of training and actual combat strength in the short term are worrying, considering that there is a third legion in the south to resist the hunting sickle ants and parasitic ants, and there is no threat around "Dongyang City", this level of military defense is still sufficient.

4. Considering that the temperature in the "Waterfront City" is very low in winter, which will have a great negative impact on the activities of the garrison army, the protagonist decides to take the fire to the "Waterfront City" and build a combustion chamber, which can then transport the hot air flow to the entire lair through the channel to play the role of "air heating". But the specific plan can not be planned until the protagonist goes to the site to investigate.

5. Lan Bofei and the commander of the expeditionary corps are responsible for the logistics of the expeditionary army.

For example, in terms of food, due to the development of animal husbandry in "Dongyang City", ordinary worker ants and soldier ants can also receive a higher supply of meat and honeysw than the ordinary level. But with this expedition, fresh honeydew and meat could not be counted on, but the large amount of dried meat stored in the granary was enough to feed the army.

What Dongyang Castle needs to calculate now is the total amount of meat needed to go out to the army for four months, and the protagonist believes that this amount is enough to support the beginning of spring, when he can reorganize the convoy to transport new military rations.

As for ordinary grains, such as sun-dried mushrooms, grass seeds, etc., the main nest will organize manpower to allocate them, and the stored grain in the "Waterfront City" is enough for a winter.

Considering the large consumption of pottery shells by long-range troops, the expeditionary army must be prepared with both hands. First, a large number of pottery bombs should be added to the transported materials to cope with the consumption in the battle; Second, it is necessary to make full use of the soon-to-be-established "Linshui City" combustion chamber and make pottery bombs locally to supplement it.

For this reason, the protagonist plans to send several worker ants with pottery bomb firing experience from "Dongyang City" to take charge of this work.

After the meeting, the kings began to carry out their assigned tasks. For a while, "Dongyang City" began to operate efficiently and orderly like a sophisticated machine.

After all the tasks are assigned, the protagonist seems to be more relaxed, and he doesn't need to do everything himself, as long as he is responsible for the final checks. So in the early stages of the preparations, he seemed to have nothing to do.

However, the protagonist doesn't plan to be lazy, he first went to find the little secretary, communicated with several big worker ants and light gold big worker ants, and learned about the progress of the training of technicians that he was most concerned about. This work is not in a hurry, and the protagonist dials in on the difficulties encountered by the big worker ants in their work and teaching, and then they have to rely on themselves to comprehend.

After that, the protagonist decides to ride Xiaoqing II and take a trip to "Waterfront City" himself.
