Chapter 225: The Last Line of Defense

Although [Waterfront City] and [Bridgehead] were conquered by the enemy on April 17, the fighting in the depths of the underground did not end until April 19, and the Destroyers did not end the battle until this day, and they evacuated one after another. This was discovered by the Flying Knights' reconnaissance, but that's a story for later.

When the news of the fall of the two places and the complete collapse of the Great River defense line arrived, the protagonist was accompanied by an army of 20 legions that had just left the main nest [Qingqiu City].

Hearing this, the protagonist almost fainted in frustration and anger, and at the same time, resentment, remorse, unwillingness and other emotions also came up. He was furious, raised a wooden stick and frantically struck a cow tendon grass in front of him, until all the blades of the grass were scattered.

Even if [Waterfront City] and [Bridgehead] are both lost, the protagonist will not be so gaffe, if the enemy only reaches the south bank of the Great River through the rope bridge and controls the rope bridge, the protagonist can also send the Flying Knight Death Squad to carry the mysterious ball to directly blow up the rope bridge, no matter how many destroyers cross the rope bridge, they are also turtles in the urn, and there is always a way to ensure the overall safety of the south bank of the Great River.

But now, the giant banyan tree has become an indestructible natural bridge connecting the two sides of the river, and the protagonist looks almost desperately from the information packet at the leafy banyan tree that has fallen to the ground, and the brigade of destroyers is constantly marching towards the south bank.

The protagonist knows that even if he uses all the mystery balls at hand, he will not be able to blow up such a huge bridge, just as it is impossible to blow up Tarzan with hundreds or thousands of grenades.

The Great River is no longer a moat that holds back the Destroyer.

As for the white-bellied destroyer who will blow himself up, the protagonist is more surprised, but there is no way to deal with it, and the emergence of such a new class of destroyer is a bug, which means that all kinds of fortresses that were indestructible in the face of enemies in the past have become chicken ribs.

It's like a thick medieval castle that suddenly finds itself as powerless as a siege cannon.

In contrast, although the Divine Envoy King's Legion also has new weapons such as ballistas and tanks, it is no longer enough to reverse the strategic disadvantage.

Now, the protagonist must admit that he is powerless to stop the continuous southward movement of the destroyers on the north bank of the river, from last autumn to the present, it has only been half a year, the destroyer has achieved a complete strategic advantage on the south bank of the river, and the resistance of the Divine Envoy King's army is not commendable compared to the paving ant barbarian country.

The protagonist is even extremely pessimistic for a moment, maybe the god makes the king's army not survive the next winter.

The trapped beasts can still devour people, and the wounded soldiers have to fight hard. Even if he has fallen into an unprecedented crisis, the protagonist can only brace himself to deal with it.

He quickly commanded his troops to return to the main nest [Qingqiu City], and then ordered the entire city to go into a state of alert and began to build defenses on a large scale.

With the enemy already in control of [Grain Castle], there are no more strong nests north of [Qingqiu City] that can stop the enemy from moving south. The protagonist can only reluctantly give up the dozens of secondary nests north of [Qingqiu City] and build a new defense line in [Qingqiu City].

Unlike the bombed-out [Waterfront Castle] and [Bridgehead], this tall ant nest is built on a natural hill, and the natural ant mound made of dirt and stone blocks is so sturdy that even the white-bellied destroyer who can explode on his own is hard to shake.

This is also the fortress where the protagonist pins his last hopes, and if he can't resist the Destroyer's footsteps here, the protagonist really has nothing to do.

While the Destroyers are still busy clearing out the Divine Envoy King warriors in the area of [Linshui City], the protagonist can only give up the defenders who are still struggling over there, and give up the more than ten secondary nests north of [Grain Castle] and the defenders inside. The ant path was cut off, and there was no hope for the ants there to return.

The protagonist asks the Flying Knight to give orders to the defenders of Tohoku [Hunting Ground City] and other places, telling them to hold out until the last moment, delaying some precious time for the establishment of a new defensive line.

At the same time, in the vast area south of [Grain Straw City] and north of [Qingqiu City], dozens of auxiliary nests and hundreds of thousands of ant mouths received orders and began a tragic and unprecedented migration.

They killed all the mealworms they raised, bulldozed the fields, took all the food they could, blocked the entrances and exits of the caves where they had lived for generations, and began to march south day and night without enough food.

They will move away from this land that is about to turn into a battlefield along the ant road, and migrate all the way to the vicinity of [Dongyang City], which is far away from the battlefield and has a large field with sparse ant populations, which will be their new home.

In the case that the area around [Qingqiu City] is about to become a battlefield, the protagonist needs a stable rear to continuously provide supplementary troops and food, and at present, only the area of [Dongyang City] still has this condition.

Not only the nests north of [Qingqiu City], but also the entire core area that existed in the era of the old big-headed ant kingdom around [Qingqiu City] will be gradually relocated, and most of the ant populations in the territory will be evacuated to the line of [Dongyang City] and [Southern City].

The protagonist knows that this trip to the south will be a road of blood and tears, and almost all of the secondary nests do not have enough food to support all the ants for a long journey.

Even if all the mealworms that have not grown up are slaughtered, most of the meat obtained will have to be transported to [Qingqiu City] to support the next defensive battle.

And the hunter-gatherers along the way could not supply so many ants.

The protagonist's orders are cruel, if necessary, he will kill the old, weak, sick and disabled of his kind, feed on them, and must ensure that the vast majority of the ants can reach their new homes and put into production.

In addition, the Rambo Fei Division, which was resting in [Spiral Flower City], also received a death order, except for a small number of troops left in place to monitor the remnants of the Destroyer in the southwest, the army must immediately move out and support [Qingqiu City] with the previously captured mystery ball.

The tens of thousands of soldiers under Rambo Fei are currently the largest force in the Divine Envoy King Legion, and they have fought with the Destroyer's real sword and real gun, and their combat effectiveness has risen to a higher level, making them an indispensable defensive force.

The army also lacked the food and grass they needed to open and march, and the money they had received and the income from nearby hunting could only sustain most of the warriors from starvation.

The protagonist has ordered them to exhume the corpses of the two sides who died in the Battle of [Spiral Flower City] that they had buried before, and to feed on the corpses and rush back to [Qingqiu City] in time to assist in the defense.

At this time, the protagonist can no longer care about the problem of eating too many corpses that can easily lead to the outbreak of the plague, and it is now a battle of life and death.

The protagonist sees it very clearly, once the Divine Envoy King Legion can't stop the enemy in [Qingqiu City], there will be no Divine Envoy King Legion in the future, this is the last line of defense!
