When the old-fashioned king commanded the army, the mighty and mighty, and the troops pointed directly at the "Linshui City", the army of the Divine Envoy King of the Commander of the Rolling had just finished the fierce battle and was resting.

Since the discovery of enemy tracks in the neighboring area, "Waterfront City" has been put on alert, and the Flying Knight has frequently dispatched reconnaissance every day.

Therefore, when the troops of the old-fashioned king's faction were gathering from the lair of the "Hunting Ground City", the flying knights had already noticed the clues.

When the enemy army was assembled, the flying knights rushed back to report once. After confirming that the enemy's large force had moved forward along the ant road leading to Waterfront City, the Flying Knight hurriedly flew back to report again.

In the "Waterfront City", Lan Bofei, who received the letter, immediately ordered the lair to enter a state of imminent battle, and at this moment he knew that it would come sooner or later, so he had been preparing for a long time.

After receiving the order, a large number of heralds rushed out of the nest and rushed to various parts of the territory to send emergency signals to return to the nest, informing their companions who were still foraging outside the nest to take refuge. They have to race against time, and it is not so easy to get all the ants back in time.

There was also a messenger who rushed to the southwest before the wooden bridge was blocked, and informed the divine envoy King. Although there are flying knights, Rambo Fei is also often used to sending ground messengers as double insurance.

Although the terrain of the "Waterfront City" is easy to defend and difficult to attack, only a wooden bridge formed by a natural tree falling across the river surface communicates with the mainland. However, the downside is that the enemy army can easily block the wooden bridge and isolate the "Waterfront City".

At that time, "Waterfront City" will have to rely on the Flying Knights to keep the information flowing.

In the "Waterfront City", the defenders were also mobilized.

Rambofei's Second Legion began to assemble out of the nest, building a defensive line at the end of the wooden bridge, and resting to rest and recuperate. The battle over the wooden bridge will certainly be the focus of the battle.

The garrison legion of "Waterfront City" was also gathered by Beard, and among them there were some retired veterans of the Divine Envoy King Legion, who were also very combative. The other fighters, although lacking actual combat experience, were at least a good complement to the regular army.

The only shortcoming that will affect the long-term persistence of the "Waterfront City" may be the lack of food stocks.

After the beginning of spring, although Beard actively organized the residents of "Waterfront City" to operate production, he did not hoard much food, and he also supported a batch of grain in the main nest "Qingqiu City" before according to the protagonist's order.

At this time, the farmland on the mainland of the "Waterfront City" was forced to abandon, and it was impossible to go to the vast area on the other side of the wooden bridge to gather and hunt. Relying only on the output of the big banyan tree and the small island will be very embarrassing.

The main food that the big banyan tree can provide is the banyan fruit, but this is not the fruiting season. Fortunately, the ants can also hunt some leaf-eating caterpillars and borers in the trunk of the large banyan tree. The young shoots and new leaves of the banyan tree can also be used to feed the mealworms in the farm, so that the farm will not be closed due to lack of feed.

But these foods alone are not enough. Maybe it was enough to support the ant mouth of the previous "Waterfront City", but since Rambo Fei's legion and flying knight troops moved in, there have been a lot of mouths at once. As for the male ant commander and the fly mount, they also have to consume extra high-grade food such as honeydew, which is exactly the most scarce in "Dongyang City".

Therefore, while holding on, Rambo Fei is also eagerly looking forward to the arrival of reinforcements. As a unit that has won many battles, Rambo Fei does not like this kind of battle where they are stuck at home and passively defended.

However, it is clear that the enemy will come faster than the reinforcements......

- I'm the dividing line -

The increasing frequency of the Flying Knight's return also means that the enemy's front is getting closer and closer.

Rambo Fei set up his command post on a low-hanging branch of the big banyan tree, and he doesn't like to stand as high and look as far as the protagonist, after all, his eyesight is not so developed. The reason why the command office is located here is to facilitate contact with the flying knights, obtain the latest information in a timely manner, and make judgments and commands.

Anyway, the legion is very close to the feet, and his own heralds can quickly convey the instructions in place, and it will not affect the timeliness of his command.

According to the reports of the Flying Knights, the army of the old-fashioned kings has arrived on the south bank, and it is very close to the wooden bridge.

The enemy ranks were somewhat disorganized, like a bustling ant convoy without command and not like a well-commanded force. Rambo Fei didn't know that this was due to the lack of grassroots commanders in the enemy army, but at least he was relieved that the enemy army didn't look like a hundred battles.

After all, with just the more than 5,000 soldiers of the two legions at hand, it is inevitable that the pressure will be great to face tens of thousands of enemy troops.

At this moment, there are still some "waterfront city" ants scattered and foraging on the south bank, and they did not get the news in time to evacuate. These ants obviously can't return to the nest, but fortunately, even if they are caught by the old king's army, the old king has no intention of killing them, but is just imprisoned by the rear army and placed in other nests to work in the future.

The old-fashioned army of kings stopped on the bank of the river, waiting for the arrival of the long rear army.

It wasn't until about ten o'clock in the morning that the old-fashioned army of kings who had traveled a long way was basically in place.

From the perspective of the flying knights, when they swept across the ground from the height of the end of their sight, they saw that on the ground, on the bank of the river, and in an open field, they were densely packed with the figures of big-headed ants, and they were arranged into small phalanxes one by one, and the small phalanxes formed a large phalanx, and the large phalanxes were arranged into horizontal formations with each other.

Although due to the lack of grassroots commanders, there are still many ants in the army formation restless arching, which affects the stability and momentum of the formation, but these numbers alone are enough to make their opponents fearful.

When the flying knights passed the information package of their sight to Rambo Fei, Rambo Fei became even more dignified. He only knew that there were tens of thousands of enemies before, but he had no idea whether it was 10,000 or 20,000. After all, the number of tens of thousands is boundless, and it is very difficult to count.

Now, with the enemy forces lined up in formation, it's easy to calculate.

The old-fashioned King Army is the military establishment of the traditional big-headed ant kingdom, a small phalanx is a squad with fifty warriors, and a legion is a large phalanx with thirty squads of fifteen hundred warriors. The enemy's position consisted of more than twenty legions, close to forty thousand.

This is a very considerable military strength, except for the 150,000 expeditionary force that went to the north bank of the Great River, it is rare to see such a large army in the country of the Big-headed Ant King. Even when the main nest was first attacked by the protagonist, it was unable to send this number of troops.

God knows how this old-fashioned king managed to recruit such a large army in such a short period of time.

Of course, neither the protagonist nor Lan Bofei knew that this was already the result of the old-fashioned king pulling out all the ant-mouths of the seventeen auxiliary nests.
