In the face of the unanimous and surging alliance of indigenous ants, the Divine Envoy King's legion had to temporarily shrink its defensive line.

Although the ant alliance had long expected the action of colonizing the south bank of the Qing River, sooner or later it would clash with the indigenous ants, after all, colonization means fighting for land and resources, and no ant tribe would be willing to give up these things to live and live.

But according to the plan, it should be that the [Pioneer City] base has been stabilized, and after the beginning of spring next year, when the ant alliance further expands, a conflict with the indigenous ant tribe will break out!

But now, an unexpected wildfire has upset the balance of power in the area, and the [Pioneer City], which was barely "alone" in the fire, has attracted a siege from other victims.

The Divine Envoy King's legion only has 4 legions stationed in the local area, and it is still relatively tired from taking turns to attack and patrol not long ago, but this time in the face of a larger number of native ants with a more unified will, [Pioneer City] was forced to abandon the periphery and move a large number of aphid herds to graze near the ant nest.

In this way, although it is crowded, the burden on new vegetation in a short period of time is also large, and it may even cause some plants to die early.

But now that the weather is getting colder, these aphids and vegetation will not live long, so they simply squeeze the last production capacity.

Concentrated around the nest would have reduced the defensive pressure on the garrison, at least without having to travel for an hour or two to protect an attacked herd, sometimes when the herdsmen's corpses were cold.

The north shore of the Ant Alliance did not send additional troops and materials to the south bank for reinforcements this time, and the flight transport team was also flesh and blood, and the high-intensity transport flight in the past six months had exhausted the physical strength and even vitality of the beast.

First of all, the [Pioneer City] was to be built, and the flight transport team was almost continuous at that time, with tens of thousands of flights, to ensure that 100,000 ant mouths and corresponding materials were in place.

Before they had time to catch their breath, after the fire, they carried out the task of urgently dispatching disaster relief materials, and it was not until a while ago that the flying transport team could finally rest.

Since the beginning of this year, under the high-intensity work, the flight transport team has lost about one-sixth of the beasts, some of them died of old age, some suffered accidents, but more of them were exhausted to death. Now that the weather is getting colder, the beast's body has become more stiff, making it less suitable for continuing high-intensity work.

The protagonist has ordered the beasts of the flying convoy to prepare for the winter in [Xinyang City] on the north shore and [Pioneer City] on the south bank, so as to take care of the surviving beasts.

Next year, the ant alliance also needs to buy more beasts from other civilizations, and after the beginning of spring, it is the season for beasts to breed, so as to replenish the lost beasts and further expand the flying transport team.

So far this year, the scientific research team of "Little Secret II" has not found a way to domesticate flying locusts and giant dragonflies, and the giant dragonflies have to lay eggs in gentle waters, and how to collect and care for these eggs, the scientific research team has no clue, and the Maolin ant clan inherited by the water god refuses to sell the technology of domesticating giant dragonflies.

Locusts lay their eggs on the ground, but they often lay eggs so deep that wildfires do not threaten them, making them very hidden and difficult to collect.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade provided a clue that the ants in the bullet ant caravan had accidentally mentioned that their locust eggs were laid in the nests, which were easy to collect and hatch and tame.

Based on this clue, the research team is studying how to induce locusts to lay eggs indoors.

On October 30th, after the Ant Coalition contracted the defense line of [Pioneer City], the indigenous ants immediately ravaged the land ceded by the Ant Alliance.

The retreat of the ant alliance made the indigenous ants feel that the other party was cowardly and bullied, and completely forgot that many tribes were chased and beaten not long ago.

The newly occupied land has some food, such as buds of grass that have just grown, some eggs buried in the ground, or surviving insects such as rat women.

This food was far from enough for all the invaders, and some indigenous tribes fought again over the only food resources, breaking the previous tacit understanding.

Of course, the ant alliance is happy to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and wait for the enemy's internal friction to almost come out to take revenge.

However, this time the native ants showed restraint with each other, and the Flying Knights observed that some of the larger tribes or tribal alliances were constantly sending messengers to roam among the various indigenous ant tribes, as if they were connecting something.

The most active of these is the Argentine Ant Tribal Alliance, which has caused a lot of trouble for the 2nd Legion before.

Argentine ants have always been known for their large number of ants and strong adaptability, and they are relatively powerful in any place, and their small size is only equivalent to the body of the large-headed ant worker ant, but it is not inferior to the fierceness of the hunting sickle ant, not inferior to the courage of the red fire ant, and is a difficult opponent.

This Argentine ant tribal alliance was originally a remnant of a powerful Argentine ant empire with the inheritance of ancient gods, but for some reason it separated and lost its inheritance.

But after hundreds of years of struggle, they have grown again, and if it weren't for the Ant Alliance to colonize the south bank of the Qing River, they would be the most powerful force in this place, and perhaps they might have used this natural disaster to further expand their territory and influence.

In a few hundred years, perhaps this nascent Argentine ant tribal alliance will eventually develop into a vast empire that will dominate the vast land on the south bank of the Qing River.

But without ifs, the colonization of the Ant Alliance has disrupted the local balance of power and changed the future historical course of this plane.

The Ant Alliance is rich in materials and has become the prey of the rebellious Argentine Ant Tribal Alliance.

Under the tandem mediation of the powerful Argentine ant tribe alliance, most of the indigenous ant tribes have stopped their fearless internal friction, although they still have their own ghosts.

Because of the contradictions between the various ethnic groups, many of which are historical grievances, even the powerful Ant Tribal Alliance in Argentina is unable to form such a scattered indigenous ant tribe into a coalition to act in unison.

What makes all the indigenous ant tribes willing to put aside their contradictions for the time being and unite with the outside world is just the rumored [Pioneer City] where there is a lot of food and can't be eaten!

Some ants with good eyesight saw the tall [Pioneer City] ant mound from a distance, and they were convinced of this view, and told their close friends about it.

On November 1st, the 15 indigenous ant tribes finally agreed that they would no longer fight among themselves, and that they would work together to conquer [Pioneer City], and agreed to reorganize their armaments and march together at the next sunrise.

But the next day, a small alliance of the two tribes of bellied ants and Siberian stink ants could not wait and took the lead.

Later, 2 more ant tribes didn't know whether they heard the news, or if they considered it, and they also acted in advance.

The Argentine ant clan managed to restrain the other ant tribes, continue to reorganize their armaments, and patiently wait for the date of the operation to come.
