Although he grits his teeth with hatred for the traitor Flyhawk, the protagonist really doesn't have much to do now, and he doesn't have the energy to deal with him.

Anyway, it's been months since the Flyhawk rebelled, and now eliminating him physically won't have the effect of making up for the loss of the sheep except for venting, and the Flyhawk has already leaked all the secrets that can be leaked.

The current focus of the Divine Envoy King's Legion has been on the swamp area, and the Divine Envoy King's Legion has adopted a wait-and-see attitude in the area along the river, and the garrison is not large, so it is unable to rebuild the rope bridge and then cross the river to retaliate.

As for using the flying knight to capture the fly eagle, the protagonist has thought about it, but he also considers that the flying knights arranged in [Linshui City] and other places are all fly flying knights, and many of them are also the old subordinates of the fly eagle.

Armed with the experience of the Flyhawk and a serious sense of distrust, the protagonist fears that more Fly Riders will defect, and simply orders all the Fly Riders to move to [South City] and participate in the operation against the swamp area.

In addition, he sent 50 bee flying knights composed of large worker ants to [Waterfront City] to take charge of the operation on the north bank of the Great River.

In this way, although the loyalty of the Flying Knight is ensured, the Great Worker Ant class is completely based on the trust of the protagonist, and it is impossible for the Bee Flying Knight to meet the conservative and discriminatory faction of the Great King's Council.

However, bees are weaker than flies in terms of flying skills and speed, and it is difficult for a bee rider to catch a cunning flyer in the air.

So, it's not a priority to deal with this traitor now, and the protagonist is still fighting with troops in the swampy area.

- I'm the dividing line -

During this time, the progress of the Divine King's legion in the swampy area was very smooth.

Since the use of air defense nets to limit the enemy's air superiority, and the use of ballistas to gain true long-range strike capabilities, the Divine Angel King's legion has had an advantage in lair defense battles.

After severely weakening the parasitic army for several days in the defensive battle of [Bridgehead] (this [bridgehead] is not the [Waterfront City] on the north bank of the Great River), the parasitic army is exhausted, and the protagonist judges that the time has come to counterattack, and leads the army of the Divine Envoy King to start a counterattack.

Of course, the Divine Envoy King's legion will not go out into the field to fight a large number of enemies, it is an act of death, and it will completely expose the troops to the enemy's superior air power.

The Legion of the Divine Envoy always took advantage of the night to sweep the nests of parasitic ants near the fortress, rounding up and killing those parasitic war beasts that spent the night nearby.

When the parasitic army near the [bridgehead] was almost wiped out, the army of the Divine Messenger King followed the swamp and twisted land, entered the interior, and three hours away from the [bridgehead], the Divine Envoy King's army spent another night building a fortress [Stump City] with an air defense network around a lone tree stump.

The protagonist personally leads Rambovan's legion into the area, carrying ballistas. Ramboray's legion was divided into two divisions and stationed in [Swamp City] and [Bridgehead].

After that, the Divine Legion of the King repeated its old tricks, constantly using defensive warfare to weaken the nearby parasitic army. The new fortress was far from the water, and the parasitic army's most threatening dragon lice water cannon could not be used at night.

Although the strange parasitic war beasts will always have some special abilities that cause the death and injury of the Divine Envoy King warriors, such as the spider silk of the parasitic spider, the venom of the parasitic centipede and the scorpion, etc., these strange tricks cannot change the entire battle situation, and will also attract the protagonist's ballista to chase and kill.

After almost sweeping away the parasitic forces near [Stump City] (the newly built fortress), the Legion of the Divine King in the swamp region has received new reinforcements.

The Spider Wolves' 12th Legion arrived in [Swamp City] with an improved ballista.

This time, the flotilla went very smoothly back and forth, catching up with the tailwind, and only then did it come again in less than a month.

The protagonist now has three legions on hand, and the increase in troops makes the protagonist more confident, otherwise this step-by-step tactic will inevitably lead to excessive dispersion of troops.

The improved ballista brought by the fleet is based on the design of the protagonist, compared with the most primitive ballista, there is more fixture of the main arm of the ballista, and after aiming, the position will be fixed by a simple ratchet, and the shooter does not need extra force to maintain the aiming state, so that he can concentrate on firing.

In addition, the fleet brought a set of ratchet spare parts and other ballista spare parts, which was enough to repair the first ballista that had previously deteriorated and to improve the two original ballistas to the latest models.

With this simple improvement, ordinary ants also have the ability to use ballistas.

The protagonist quickly leads his subordinates to repair and improve the ballista, so that [Swamp City], [Bridgehead], and [Stump City] can each have a ballista to defend it, and it can also be used intensively when the battle is in full swing.

After training, there are now squads of ten ants, which are enough to flexibly control ballista fire, and the protagonist trains five such squads, that is, the formation of a squad.

Finally, the Walnut Fleet has brought two queens this time, and they will be stationed in [Swamp City].

With the queen ant, this forward base into the swamp will be transformed into an ordinary nest, equipped with the ability to be self-reliant, and provide supplies and soldiers for the nearby Divine Envoy King's legion to enhance its sustainability.

In the case of [Swamp City], the area is too small to provide enough supplies.

But through the rope bridge, [Swamp City] and [Bridgehead] are almost connected as a whole, and the parasitic forces in the vicinity are basically eliminated, only the occasional parasitic war beast wanders over, and there is nothing to fear.

With the support of the two fortresses and the nearby area, the ants are enough to collect a large amount of supplies, which can basically support the operations of three or four legions in the swampy area, reducing their dependence on the mainland.

After the two queens went to the ground, they quickly recovered from the discomfort of seasickness and began to lay eggs within a few days.

They first produced thousands of worker eggs, which were more efficient at gathering food and building nests than soldier ants.

After estimating that the number of worker ants was roughly sufficient, these queens began to produce soldier ant eggs to supplement the battle damage on the front line.

The main character leads the military operations of the Divine Envoy King's army in the swamp area to go well, and it seems that the parasitic army has no hidden hole cards.

If it weren't for the complex terrain of the swampy area, many places would not be accessible by land, and the weather would be getting colder, and there would be less and less time to move during the day. The protagonist is fully confident that he will purge the enemy's forces within four months and completely relieve this worry.

Next, the Legion of the Divine Envoy will leave [Stump City] and go to an area where a large number of parasitic ants gather, build a new fortress, and continue to destroy the enemy with defensive counterattacks.
