Chapter 261: Military Intelligence

The protagonist is very surprised by the reappearance of the parasite, and after the parasite ant remnants disappeared to the south, he has not heard from these damn "zombies" for a long time, and at one point he has almost forgotten about this "old enemy" in his busyness.

However, reminiscent of the information that the protagonist has previously found in the main nest "Qingqiu City", there have been more than one or two secondary nests in the history of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom where all the ant mouths suddenly disappeared, just like the previous "Dongyang City".

Perhaps parasites are not a rare species, they are hidden under every leaf, in every piece of rotten wood, in every ant. Like a haunting ghost.

If these parasites are really not in league with the parasitic ants who escaped, it means even more trouble, and this fungus may be pervasive and threaten the nascent Divine Envoy King regime all the time.

Thinking of this, the protagonist asks the messenger to immediately set off to inform each secondary nest, and let the male ants take the lead in organizing a strict inspection of whether the nest ** ants are infected.

But for the time being, he is not able to take any further steps. Now the attention of the entire Divine Envoy King Legion is still attracted by the battle against the Old-fashioned King.

- I'm the dividing line -

Over the next few days, which lasted until the beginning of April, the battle between the Divine King's legion and the Archaic King intensified, and the offensive and defensive momentum was reversed in one fell swoop.

First of all, the rolling army successfully regained the conquered secondary nest.

The Allied forces from the other Vice-Hives who had captured the area were slackened in their defenses and were quickly repulsed. However, due to the small number of rolling troops, there were no troops to cut off the rear route, and many enemy troops managed to escape.

After the reconquest, the sub-nest was almost an empty city, with only a small part of the grain left, and most of the rest was eaten up by the enemy army. Wang Xiaoduo, a divine envoy originally stationed here, and 2,000 worker ants, except for some who fled back to the main nest and the third secondary nest, most of the others were killed, and a few were also taken away by the enemy.

What makes the protagonist more concerned is that some mealworm eggs and some worker ants who know how to breed are also taken away by the enemy when he asks the worker ants to bring to this secondary nest.

The protagonist then transfers two more groups of worker ants from the main nest to the second and third secondary nests, and forms some garrison teams to garrison the three secondary nests leading from the main nest "Qingqiu City" to "Linshui City", with five teams stationed in each secondary nest.

While clearing out the enemy in the back lane, Lan Bofei still fights with the old-fashioned king army attacking the wooden bridge every day, and the protagonist sends a messenger to reprimand the bad coordination between Lan Bofei and Roll, but it calms down Lan Bofei and never makes a mistake again.

After the troops of Rolling finished recuperating, Rambo Fei finally completed the previous plan with Roll:

On the south bank of the Great River, Lan Bofei once again crossed the bridge to set up a formation, attracting all the attention of the old-fashioned king army. Due to his previous experience, the old-fashioned king army did not doubt him, and wanted to seize this rare opportunity to inflict a heavy blow on Lan Bofei's department.

When the rolling Beetle Legion launched a surprise attack from the rear of the Old-fashioned King's army, the untrained old-fashioned King's army quickly collapsed. And the Divine Envoy King's Legion prioritized attacking the males of the old-fashioned Great King's Army, which severely damaged its chain of command and exacerbated the chaos.

After a great battle that lasted until nightfall, the Divine Envoy King army killed tens of thousands of enemies and captured nearly 10,000 big-headed ants.

Unfortunately, due to the small number of troops and the night, more than 20,000 soldiers of the old-fashioned King Army took the opportunity to escape back to the "Hunting Ground City". Since the rolling army has not been able to find the enemy's main position, the old-fashioned king also calmly withdrew with his personal guards.

In any case, at least the siege of "Waterfront City" has been lifted, and it is difficult for the enemy army, which has lost nearly half of its troops, to threaten the heavily garrisoned "Waterfront City".

In the next few days, no fighting broke out between the two sides in the "Waterfront City". The old-fashioned king is busy licking his wounds, constantly weaving the newly broken adult ants into the army, and hoarding supplies for another battle.

The Sixth Legion of Rambose, who had participated less in the battle, filled the gap from the local garrison, and then escorted tens of thousands of captives back to the main nest "Qingqiu City".

In the main nest, the protagonist screens and treats the captives. The captives are all worker ants and soldier ants, those who are still loyal to the old king are killed, the remaining healthy ones are filled with the secondary nests in various places, and the injured are ordered by the protagonist to go to some secondary nests that are not controlled by the protagonist.

The protagonist wants to use these disabled or injured ants to consume the resources of these secondary nests, causing them some trouble, and preventing these secondary nests from colluding with the old king.

In fact, there have been quite a few side nests that have made contact with the Old King, and in addition to the one that once fell, there are also some side nests, including the "Sitong City", which have been attacked.

It is not enough that these secondary nests are scattered with each other and difficult to unite. The main nests "Qingqiu City" and "Sitong City" are also the intersection of the ant road, which objectively blocks the traffic between many secondary nests and the control area of the old king.

While the hostile behavior of these scattered side-nests did not cause much damage, the protagonist clearly could not tolerate such provocations.

He currently only has Rambotu's Fourth Legion and Rambery's Fifth Legion at hand, and after leaving the well-defended Rambotu's Fourth Legion to defend the main nest "Qingqiu City", he ordered Rambery to lead his army to wipe out the three nearby secondary nests that were hostile.

The worker ants and soldier ants in these secondary nests are still treated differently, with the opponents killed, the able-bodied ones assigned to the secondary nests, and the disabled sent to the hostile secondary nests. Even though all the local males were killed, the carcasses were returned to the main nest and thrown into the fire.

The protagonist also sends a large number of messengers to deliver packets of information packets about the incineration of male ant carcasses to the nests, hoping to use this new horror to deter the enemy.

However, it was later found that the effect was not obvious, the ants did not have the concept of the afterlife, so the attitude towards the corpse was very casual, whether it was a male ant, a queen ant or an ordinary ant, the corpse was discarded to the ant's public cemetery at will after death.

Therefore, the abuse and humiliation of the corpses of these male ants did not make them as frightened as expected, except for the inexplicable male ants who received the information packet.

The battle with the scattered side nests slowly slides in the direction of the law and order war that the protagonist has been worried about, and the opponents are always killed, which gives him a lot of headaches.

As a result, the protagonist strictly orders the troops of "Waterfront City" to eliminate the old-fashioned king's army as soon as possible, so that the other sub-nests will lose their allegiance again, which is conducive to the defeat of each of their own sides.

So, on April 8, after a long rest, the four Divine Envoy King Legions, which were fully replenished and recuperated after joint training, marched towards the "Hunting Ground City" in the east under the leadership of Roll.
