Chapter 309: Straight to the Yellow Dragon (1)

The troops assembled in the "Sitong City" have a total of five legions, namely the 1st Legion (Beetle Legion) of Rolling, the 4th Legion of Rambotu, the 5th Legion of Rambery, the 7th Legion of the Praying Tiger and the 8th Legion of the Stag Elephant, all of which are fully staffed, and even the 4th Legion that has just experienced the battle with the parasitic ants has been replenished.

There are a total of 250 combat squads and 10 scout squads in the five legions, totaling 13,000 fighters. In terms of combat effectiveness, it is already more than five times stronger than the ordinary big-headed ant army or paving ant army.

In this army, the 1st Army of Rolling and the 4th Army of Rambo are the absolute main forces, and they are the troops that the protagonist started out with. And although Ramboray's 5th Army was formed around last winter, it has also been trained in the big war.

In order to ensure the smooth development of this military operation, the protagonist also made a bloody investment in sending such a huge army with a luxurious lineup.

Originally, the protagonist even planned to personally lead this army, but now the God Envoy King's army is too big, and only the protagonist himself understands the specific direction and long-term significance of some scientific and technological research and development and social reforms, so he must sit in the main nest to coordinate the overall situation, and has to give up the command and turn to the command of this large army.

In addition to the five legions under the command of Rambo Wan and the five legions of rolling, there is also the 6th legion of Rambose stationed in the "Waterfront City", and the protagonist is left with only Rambofei's 2nd legion as a mobile force in the main lair.

In addition to the five armies, the Divine Envoy King's army also deployed a lot of food to the "Sitong City" to support the battle.

Most of this grain was shipped from "Dongyang City", and although the protagonist has relocated the ruling center to "Qingqiu City", as the earliest base area, "Dongyang City" is still important, as a center of scientific research and production, and the grain production is also the highest among all the territories.

In order to complete the military operation as soon as possible, the first batch of emergency procurement and transportation of food was about enough for a week's needs of the five corps.

However, in order to take the military operation of Huanglong by surprise this time, the large army did not carry too many weapons and food with the army, and the troops set off when they were full, carrying only the most basic weapons and a small number of slings, and marched lightly.

Theoretically, an ant warrior can go three days without food after a full meal, but fierce battles and long marches will definitely consume a lot of energy, and in practice they will be able to support it for a shorter time. However, as long as the enemy's secondary nest is overcome, the Divine Envoy King's army can get some food replenishment, and the food hoarded in the "Sitong City" is more of a preparation, in case there is a shortage of food on the front line, the "Sitong City" must organize a transport team to transport the military grain.

The current ruling male of "Sitong City" is a third-generation male ant of the Divine Envoy King Legion, and the protagonist once rewarded him with a sunflower seed, which is also called "Melon Seed".

He, along with Gardenia, Bamboo, Beard and Nodulum, are among the best male ants in the third generation, and have performed well since Sitong City.

After breaking with the Queen Ant Inheritance faction, the "Sitong City" also encountered several attacks due to its proximity to the territory of the Queen Ant Inheritance faction. However, the enemy army is usually in double digits, and the "Sitong City", which has already formed three squads to garrison the troops, can easily repel the enemy's attack.

This attack was more of a spontaneous act of the sub-nest of the nearby Queen Ant's Legacy faction, and after the Flying Knight determined that the enemy showed no signs of attacking the "Sitong City", the defensive pressure on this side was not great.

After the departure of the rolling army, the "Sitong City" will be safer, and the enemy's attention will be attracted by the two forces of Rolling and Rambo in case of the south and the north, and they will have no time to take care of here.

- I'm the dividing line -

On the night of April 29, the army stationed in the "Sitong City" had a full meal, although there was no combustion chamber and fire in the "Sitong City", but the main force that was accustomed to cooked food did not resist eating raw mealworm jerky, and they were satisfied with the scarce but abundant honeydew available today.

Eating cooked food is the main character's influence, and it is indeed beneficial to improve the physical fitness of the warrior. However, these ant warriors have not been receiving cooked food for long periods of time and have not yet become dependent, otherwise it would be a real disaster for the logistical supply - the protagonist's convoy now has no way to properly transport fire or large quantities of cooked food over long distances.

Early the next morning, the army of ants came out of their nests and gathered, and after drinking some dew from the ground, the army took advantage of the cool weather and set off.

Although it is the end of April, the sun is already very hot, so it is a little cool in the morning.

The ants headed west along the ant path on a cool morning, and there was a secondary nest of the Queen Ant Inheritance faction half a day ahead.

At noon, the scouts spotted the enemy workers foraging in the wild, captured them, and did not let the fish slip through the net.

The Divine Envoy King's legion sent male ants to give orders to the captured ants of the same clan, and these big-headed ants and worker ants followed the army in a daze.

When the secondary nest is conquered, these worker ants can come in handy and serve the army. Generally, unless it is a very fierce battle, those ants who have given an order from a male ant to regard the Divine Envoy King's legion as an enemy and refuse to surrender will be killed, and the other Ant Envoy King's Legion of the same clan will try to capture and tame as much as possible.

The rolling army of divine soldiers descended from the sky and suddenly appeared at the entrance of the first secondary nest, and the enemy was not warned at all. Ramboray's 5th Legion quickly burst into the ground as a vanguard, quickly killing the two dominant males in the secondary nest.

Judging from the number of dominating males, this is a medium-sized secondary nest, and the ant population should generally be around 10,000, and there is also a lot of grain.

However, after the war, after clearing out some of the ants that resisted, the Divine Envoy King's army only found more than a thousand ants and a granary that had almost bottomed out in this secondary nest.

After inquiry, Roll learned that there are still many ants in this secondary nest after the beginning of spring, although the exact number is only known to the dead dominant male, but the ant mouth is definitely more than now.

After the beginning of spring, the Queen Ant Inheritance faction failed to persuade and assassinate the three ruling males here, and sent a large army to besiege and capture the place.

The three ruling males who were originally loyal to the King's Council faction and many of the ants were killed in the decisive battle in the wild, and the remaining ants were managed by the two newly sent males loyal to the queen.

A few days ago, a large number of ants were transferred to the north with a large amount of grain stockpiles, which should be to support the battlefield of "Trench City".

Seeing a medium-sized secondary nest now has few ant mouths and the granary is at the bottom, you know how much the war has cost the economy and the ant population.

And this situation is not good news for the rolling army, they get more food than nothing in this sub-nest, and they also need the support of "Sitong City".
