Just when the Red Fire Ant Country was busy up and down because of the arrival of its own suzerain, the Divine Envoy King Legion didn't know about this matter, and was still preparing for the wintering step by step.

Because the weather is getting cooler, the protagonist also knows that the ants will not make any big military moves, so the flying knights also give up long-distance aerial reconnaissance. In addition to the necessary communication between the nests, the Flying Knights have begun to concentrate on [Xinyang City] to prepare for the winter.

In fact, even if the flying knights were still operating normally, they would no longer fly to the territory of the Red Fire Ant Country, and they would not be able to detect this incident.

Because the Red Fire Ant Kingdom seems to have a different kind of resistance to the flying knights flying above them, after reaching a contract with the Divine Envoy King Legion, he specially sent a messenger to affirm that the flying knights must not cross the line, and the protagonist does not want to affect the bilateral relationship because of this incident, so the flying knight's flight range is restricted.

At this time, outside [Red Iron City], the protagonist leads most of the army to set off, preparing to return to [Xinyang City] for the winter.

Although it is too close to the riverbank, even the underground is very humid, and there are many ant mouths, which makes it very crowded. But there, it is the first lair since the landing of the Divine Envoy King Legion, and it is also their current main lair!

Living here, it seems to be closer to the homeland, and the protagonist has vowed that he will return to his homeland one day!

Before the protagonist leaves for [Xinyang City], the Divine Envoy King's legion has completely controlled the southern half of the forest on the east bank of the stream, and the newly conquered territory is about the same size as the territory occupied by the Red Fire Ant Country.

Since the occupation of [Red Iron City], the Divine Envoy King Legion has sent small forces many times, gradually encompassing all the territories of the original Leaf Cutter Ant Kingdom east of the stream and south of [Red Iron City], destroying many leaf cutting ant nests and building several new nests of the Divine Envoy King's Legion.

Although the territory of today's Divine Envoy King Legion is far less vast than in the heyday of its homeland, it has long ceased to be the appearance of living in a corner of [Xinyang City].

Moreover, all these new territories and new nests have been taken this year, and the Divine Envoy King's Legion has shown an extremely fast expansion rate.

The Divine Envoy King Legion has really risen this year, they first escaped from the siege of the Red Fire Ant Army, and then fought with the Leaf Cutting Ant Country, struggling to survive in the gap between the two neighboring enemies, and actually laid a good situation, it is really not easy.

No other ant knows that the protagonist has been under a lot of pressure this year. The haze of complete defeat in his homeland was far from dissipating from the bottom of his heart, and even if he found that his body was not like other ants and began to decay at this age, it did not make him happy.

Whether it is facing the Red Fire Ant Country, or suddenly fighting with the Leafcutter Ant Country, and facing the situation of being attacked on the back and back, it makes the pressure on the protagonist as a leader double. Even if a contract is reached with the Red Fire Ant Nation temporarily, peace is fragile and may resume at any time. This can be seen from the many disagreements between the Red Fire Ant Kingdom and the Divine Envoy King Legion.

Now, even if the Divine Envoy King's legion has occupied a very large territory and has dozens of side nests, it can't completely reassure the protagonist.

The protagonist knows that if the Divine Envoy King Legion is now allowed to face either the Red Fire Ant Army or the Leaf-Cutting Ant Army in the "Battle of the Worlds", the number of Divine Envoy King Legions, no matter how elite they are, will only be completely submerged by the Ant Sea tactics.

The Divine Envoy King Legion still needs to continue to expand its army and constantly strengthen its military strength in order to survive in this world of the jungle.

The protagonist of course hopes that the army will be resurrected at once to the peak size of hundreds of standing legions in his homeland, and even the number he gives to the vassal ant legion starts at a hundred, which already reveals his ambitions.

But the food had to be eaten one bite at a time, and the army could only expand little by little.

The current territory of the Divine Envoy King Legion, except for the forest area east of the stream taken from the Leaf Cutting Ant Country, and the territory taken from the Forest Ant Clan and the Belly Raising Ant Clan, the rest are places that the Leaf Cutting Ant Country and the Red Fire Ant Country did not look down on.

For example, the Black Forest is close to the main nest of the Red Fire Ant Country [Hive City], but there are no resources in it that the Red Fire Ant Country needs, so they can't look down on it. For example, in the flower sea of February Orchid, in fact, the soil layer is shallow, the soil is poor, and there are no forests, so the red fire ant country and the leaf-cutting ant country are not looked down upon.

Even [Xinyangcheng], which was originally a lonely and damp peninsula, had nothing but a poplar tree, and in the eyes of other ants, it was simply barren land.

But it was on the wasteland, on the riverside, beside the tidal flats, and in the woods that the Divine Envoy King made full use of his relatively superb agricultural technology to develop planting and breeding industry, and developed fungal breeding with the help of the technology of leafcutter ant vassals, and actually never lacked food, and was even self-sufficient.

Relying on the trade of honeydew and crow honey, the Divine Envoy King's legion traded a large amount of grain from the Leaf Cutting Ant Country at the beginning of the year, and later from the Red Fire Ant Country.

The scale of the grain deal with the Red Fire Ant Country made even the military rations of the other party's military operations against the Leafcutter Ant Country short for a while, and also made the young militant males of the Red Fire Ant Country more and more dissatisfied with the Divine Envoy King Legion.

But aside from the impact on the Red Fire Ant Country, relying on food production and trade, each nest of the Divine King's legion has enough food to survive the winter.

The protagonist is no longer satisfied with simply surviving the winter, on the way back to [Xinyang City], he constantly sends messengers to each nest, asking each nest to continue to breed ants in the nest ** in winter on the premise of ensuring food supply, and train a group of soldier ants in advance, when the Divine Envoy King Legion begins to expand the army next spring, it can save a lot of energy.

Iron smelting in [Xinyangcheng] and [Februarylancheng] could not be stopped, and now a lot of iron ore has been hoarded in both places, even if the amount of iron ore transportation has been reduced due to the construction of the canal, it is far more than when the Yangzhizhi ant country sniffed before.

The two smelting bases will continue to cast iron tools in the winter, and the Divine Envoy King Legion plans to expand the army in batches by 20 new legions next year, and this winter, it will produce weapons and equipment in advance.

At the same time, inspired by the great increase in the combat effectiveness of the ants after putting on their armor, and the current iron production of the Divine Envoy King's army is already higher than the actual demand, the protagonist intends to use the rich production capacity to put iron armor on the beetles of the tank brigade.

After putting on the iron armor, whether it is a double-pronged rhinoceros beetle or a spade armor, the attack and defense power will also be improved, which is closer to the tank in the protagonist's heart.

At this time, the protagonist does not know that in this world, in addition to the tank troops of the Divine Messenger King Legion, there are other insect and beast troops.

Moreover, the two sides will meet soon!
