The protagonist talked endlessly for more than ten minutes, but fortunately, the ants don't need to speak with their mouths, they don't need to shout at the top of their voices, and they can send the information they want to say to all the recipients by their tentacles, as long as the speaker's mind is strong enough, other information will be easily suppressed. This also avoids the embarrassing situation where the protagonist is hoarse and has a dry mouth and can't cover up the opposing voice.

By the time the protagonist finished venting in one breath, the audience was silent, and everyone kept their heads down and kept their tentacles close to the ground, but no information was sent to the cobblestones.

The protagonist couldn't help but regret it a little, he didn't understand what everyone's silent situation meant and emotions, everyone was shocked? Or are the words of a counterattack brewing? Did you offend most of the kings?

He couldn't help but start thinking crankily, if he was going to offend the kings, would he have to break with the main nest? If the kings send troops to besiege them, how can I fight my way out of the siege? After escaping back to "Dongyang City" on Xiaoqing II, is it time to prepare for the siege of the main nest army? Did you insist on holding out for a month until winter, and the main nest army would retreat without a fight? Then, after the beginning of spring, will "Dongyang City" move to the southern hills to temporarily avoid the edge?

However, the protagonist's crankiness does not last long, and the public security king breaks the awkward and eerie silence by speaking first, expressing his firm support for the Divine Envoy King's statement. Although he also thinks that there is nothing wrong with defending according to the traditional plan, it is also a fact that the city is lost every winter, and the reconquista war every spring and summer is always carried out on his own territory, and it cannot threaten the territory of the paving ant barbarians.

He said that he believed in the judgment of the Divine Envoy King, and that he should adopt new tactics this year to deal with the enemy's attack, and strive to eliminate the old enemy of the Paving Ant Barbarians once and for all within a few years.

Later, the kings of the West, the elder brother and other kings who had fought side by side with the protagonist also expressed their support, and they had witnessed the protagonist lead them to victory after victory, and they had great confidence in him.

And the king, who has not been in contact with the protagonist, is the main force of the conservatives, but in the current atmosphere of public opinion, they almost do not speak, and they do not know how to speak, and a few speakers still hold tradition as the last weapon.

But tradition can be changed, and even the kingdom of the big-headed ant has experienced a revolution in fear of fire, contact with fire, and use of fire, and the conservatives' arguments pale in comparison.

In the end, the public opinion environment was very favorable to the protagonists, and the public security king also took the opportunity to propose a revision of this year's defense plan, which was agreed by the participants.

This time, the protagonist participates in the development of the defense plan and gives a lot of suggestions.

However, the final plan is not to lure the enemy deeper by actively abandoning a large number of strongholds and territories, as the protagonist previously envisioned, and finally achieve the convergence and annihilation. The ants are too sensitive to the words of defeat and retreat, and even the kings who support the protagonist will not support his crazy plan.

In the end, the reformists, led by the protagonist, and the conservatives, who still had the upper hand, reached a compromise and decided on a new defense plan.

This year, the main nest will send more reinforcements to the secondary nest on the first line of the south bank of the river, and strive to kill and wound as much of the enemy's living force as possible on the first line.

These front-line nests will be expanded to accommodate between three and five thousand warriors, each with enough food to feed for four months.

Considering that the big-headed ants can only move at relatively warm depths below one metre underground, the structure of the secondary nest needs to be adjusted accordingly: the nest chamber will be eliminated in the shallow layer of the ground, leaving only a part of the passage. At the depth where the big-headed ant is able to move, the underground fortifications of the system will be built at the exit of the passage connecting to the surface. At that time, the Big-headed Ant Kingdom Army will put the enemy here and then use the location of the fortifications to flank the attack.

The main nest army stationed out is also as elite as possible according to the requirements of the protagonist, although it is not up to the full army ant establishment like the Divine Envoy King Legion, but the ratio of soldier ants to worker ants has also reached 2:3, which is much higher than the usual ratio of 1:4.

These selected soldier ants and worker ants are all in the prime of life, and they will also be trained by the Public Security King and the Western King in the next half month to master the new tactics of the legions under the command of these two kings, which are easier to master than the tactics of the Divine King's legions, and do not require the commander to have a high level of military literacy.

This time, the reinforcements will be under the command of the King, who will be on the front lines of the Winter Defense for the first time to fight the enemy invasion.

And the protagonist received the task of leading more than 4,000 soldiers in three legions under his command to take over the defense of "Waterfront City".

This is the front line of the winter offensive against the Paving Ant Barbarian Army, and it is also the most geographically unsuitable for defense - the secondary nest is built on a tree, and its temperature is much lower than the warm underground, which will have an extremely adverse impact on the cold-sensitive big-headed ant warriors, and it is not convenient to expand the size of the nest, and it is difficult to accommodate enough defenders.

The reason why the protagonist is willing to defend here is because he thinks that the other legions will not be able to hold this secondary nest, and if there is any army that can do it, it can only be the Legion of the Divine Envoy led by the protagonist himself.

In addition, "Waterfront City" is only 5 meters away from the north bank of the river, and it is the narrowest section of the river between the Big-headed Ant Kingdom and the Paving Ant Barbarian Boundary River, and the current is not fast, so it is most suitable as a bridgehead to build a pontoon bridge to attack the enemy mainland.

As for the various disadvantages of "Waterfront City" in terms of defense, the protagonist decided to go on a field survey himself to see if there was any room for transformation.

The meeting quickly finalized and approved the winter defense plan, and then the meeting was adjourned. The kings attending the meeting each carried out the orders they received, they should continue to search for the oldest king to organize a search, those who should be ready to go out to collect troops and train them, and those who were responsible for logistics began to organize the preparation and delivery of materials by the workers.

Instead of staying in the main nest, which is already busy with porridge, the protagonist returns to the tree and flies back to "Dongyang City" under the escort of flying knights such as the Fly Eagle.

Here, he also has a lot of preparations to do, a defensive battle that will last all winter, and a counteroffensive operation that may be followed by the beginning of spring, the troops and materials needed cannot be prepared in a short time.

This is bound to be a large but trivial task, but fortunately, the protagonist does not intend to do it entirely himself, and he now has a group of loyal and more capable men to share with.

Next, the protagonist has to communicate the next plan to all the adult males in "Dongyang City", and then assign their respective work tasks.
