Chapter 213: Map Frontier (2)
The protagonist looks at the rudimentary map he has drawn, and continues to bury his head in the marking.
The map is very simple and freehand, not intentional by the protagonist. He is not good at painting himself, and now the physiological structure of ants is not suitable for drawing particularly fine content, just like asking a person to hold a pencil with one finger to write, the work is definitely not aesthetic scientific research.
The protagonist has no choice but to be simple.
He drew a triangle and a vertical bar in the upper left of the black dot symbolizing [Red Iron City], which is a very freehand tree symbol, which symbolizes the Leaf Cutting Ant Country.
Then use a large circle to include the territory of the Leaf Cutting Ant Country, and it can be seen that the territory of the Leaf Cutting Ant Country occupies the entire west and north of the Ant Alliance, and the territory is much larger than that of the Ant Alliance.
Crossing the Leafcutter Ant Country to the north, there is a large blank space, and the protagonist draws two crossed jaws next to the border of the Leafcutter Ant Country, and the jaws are represented by arcs and a small bar.
That was the direction in which the Red Fire Ant Nation fled, and there was their suzerain, paving the Ant Empire. Despite being separated by a piece of territory in the Leaf Cutter Ant Country, the protagonist still feels that the north is the source of the threat, and uses two jaws to represent this enemy, and also reminds himself not to ignore this threat.
In addition to the Paving Ant Empire and the Red Fire Ant Clan, the protagonist draws a simple demon avatar further north: a circle, two protruding horns!
It was the symbol of the Destroyer, the true sword of Damocles.
At the last meeting of the Elder Gods Inheritance Ant Clan, one of the delegates mentioned that the Destroyer had already appeared in the regions further north and was at war with the local civilization Ant Clan.
Destroyer! This lingering haze of terror is not only shrouded in the homeland, but even the ants that have managed to escape cannot be shadowed in this land and this new homeland. A new home is also in danger. This is the big problem!
The protagonist retracts his gaze to the north, and paints something on the north shore territory of the Ant Alliance.
He followed the lines of the canal that had been drawn, and drew a continuous pattern of city walls on the south bank of the canal, which is the concave and convex square zigzag lines of the Great Wall.
Relying on the flow of the canal and constructing a continuous fortress, you can protect important nests such as [Xinyang City] and [February Lancheng], which is the content of the protagonist's painting, and other ants can't understand it, only the protagonist can understand it.
This plan can be put on the agenda next year. Well, it was previously necessary to approve it according to the procedure of the United Assembly of Ethnic Groups.
The protagonist then glimpses the eastern side of the North Shore Territory, where there is a blank space.
The protagonist doesn't know much about this land, only that there used to be barren sand and barren beaches for a long time, and only a few indigenous ants lived in it, and his strength was very weak.
Originally, the vassals of the Red Fire Ant Nation were responsible for guarding this border, but now that the Red Forest Ant Clan has surrendered to the Ant Alliance, the protagonist learns from them and the other ants that the threat from the east is not great.
Only occasionally there are bold or unsurviving native ants that will attack the border, and the hundreds of ants attack very rarely.
The barrenness of that place was well-known among all the local powers, and the new ant queen after the marriage flight did not fly there.
The protagonist thinks about it and points a point at the old nest of the original Red Forest Ant Clan, where a new fortress can be built to control the eastern border with a point system.
At that time, the idea of the red forest ant family choosing to build a nest here was good, and it happened to be in the middle of the eastern border of the former red fire ant country, and there was a small forest with relatively rich products as a support.
Although a large part of the northern border of the former Red Fire Ant Country is occupied by the Leafcutter Ant Country, the old nest of the Red Forest Ant Clan is not located in the center of the eastern border of the Ant Nation, but about a third of the location. But this place can be used as horns with the [Golden Beach City] in the south, and together they can defend the eastern border.
Even if the intelligence shows that the eastern border is safe, the protagonist does not take it lightly and makes arrangements.
At the beginning of his homeland, he believed in intelligence and instinct too much, and as a result, the Destroyer surprised the [Linshui City], blew down the big banyan tree, and completely broke through the natural danger of the river.
This lesson is still painfully remembered by him!
The north bank of the Qing River has been seen, and the ant alliance has no room for expansion on the north bank, the west and north are surrounded by the ally leaf-cutting ant country, and the land in the east is barren, like the carapace of insects, which has no meat to eat, and it is a pity to abandon it.
So, his eyes were on the South Bank.
In the middle of last year, he had realized that the future development of the Ant Alliance would focus on the south bank, where there was a clear river moat, which could shield the threat from the north, and the land was flat and fertile, without strong hostile forces, which was the best choice as a large rear base!
Near the black dot that symbolizes [Pioneer City], the protagonist marks several crosses, which are the nests of many local indigenous ants, and the flying knights have already detected a lot of information.
These indigenous ants migrate frequently, and many of these nests are temporary and may not be there next year.
The protagonist thinks about it for a moment and draws a large circle on the south bank to encompass a large piece of land, which is the land that the Ant Alliance will occupy next year.
He spent several landmarks on the map that roughly indicated the boundaries of the land to be conquered.
To the south, at the end of the conquest is a dense forest, about a 3-day's walk from [Pioneer City]; The swamps, which can be reached in 4 days to the east, are the natural boundary.
To the west, it will be the focus of the expansion direction of the Ant Alliance.
Far to the west, the protagonist draws the shape of a small flame that represents the Black Fire Ant clan of the Fire God's inheritance. The territorial boundaries of the Ant Coalition are drawn directly near the Black Fire Ant Nation.
The protagonist wants to open up the road transportation with the Black Fire Ant Country, and obtain coal resources more conveniently. And the Black Fire Ant Country is a 10-day walk away from [Pioneer City], which shows how big the protagonist's appetite is.
He drew a long canal from the flames of the Black Fire Ant Country to the [Pioneer City], twice as long as the canals on the north bank of the Qing River combined, and a canal for transporting coal would be dug here, which was really a bold plan.
After the canal is drawn, the protagonist seems to remember something.
About three days west of [Pioneer City], he marked a square symbol. There, the location of the remnants of the Northern Expeditionary Army, happened to be stuck on the route from the Black Fire Ant Country to [Pioneer City], and it was also included in the future territory of the Ant Alliance.
The protagonist hesitates and is ruthless, drawing a cross on this square symbol. Then, outside of the territory of the Ant Alliance, he drew a new square.
These poor ants, also from their homeland, are not willing to be loyal to me, so let them fend for themselves.
Anyway, the flying knight has not found that there is a dragonfly eagle in the rest of the Northern Expeditionary Army, and the protagonist really can't hate the king of public security and the senior brother, maybe the other party has hated him now!
