Chapter 221: The First Wave (4)

This incident still goes back to the Reconquest at the turn of spring and summer this year.

In the final battle of the Reconquest War, the battle of recovering the Great Banyan Tree and the "Waterfront City", the Divine Envoy King's Legion worked closely with the Public Security Legion and the Western Legion, relying on advanced tactics to achieve victory as quickly as the autumn wind swept away the leaves.

But the significance of this battle not only marks the end of this year's Reconquista War, but also means that the Paving Ant Barbarian Army has ushered in an opportunity for military change.

Among the enemies, there is a lucky paving ant barbarian king, let's call him "lucky".

He was first responsible for leading his legions to defend the roots of the banyan tree, but his position only held out for a short time before being broken through head-on by the Public Security Corps and the Western Legion.

"Lucky" then led the remnants of the army to retreat towards the trunk, and together with the friendly troops, he established a ring of defense on the trunk, which was also the front on which the Paving Ant Barbarian Army had the greatest hope.

However, this line was easily broken again, which completely subverted the experience of the Paving Ant's ancestors about the war with the Yellow Big-headed Ant Barbarians. This made this paving ant barbarian king extremely confused and depressed.

"Lucky" was desperately dragged back by the loyal worker ant guards, and under the search of the Big-headed Ant Expeditionary Force, he had no way to hide at the entrance of the "Waterfront City", but could only struggle to escape to the top of the canopy of the big banyan tree.

At that time, the Big-Headed Ant Expeditionary Force did not care about the paving ant king, who had lost almost all of his subordinates, and they were busy clearing out the recalcitrant enemy army and preparing to launch a general attack on the "Waterfront City".

But it was such a down-and-out paving ant king who failed to attract the extra attention of the big-headed ants that became the biggest variable.

No one knows what "Lucky", hiding in the swaying branches or leaves, was thinking in the darkness of this night, tasting the bitter wine called "failure"? Or are you unwilling to reminisce about the battles of the day in order to find out the enemy's weaknesses? At the very least, he must have engraved today's experience in his mind.

After sunrise the next day, the battle continued, and the Paving Ant Army was already gone. The sporadic battles that broke out on this day were nothing more than the dying throes of the Paving Ant Warriors, and on this day, the entire "Waterfront City" completely changed hands.

The victorious Big-Headed Ant Expeditionary Force did not notice from top to bottom, and at the end of the battle, "Lucky" and a handful of worker ant guards were forced onto a banyan leaf by the Big-headed Ant Warriors.

The king ordered the worker ants to bite off the petioles, and he would rather drown in the river than be killed and humiliated by the big-headed ant barbarians in his eyes.

After a few turns of the leaves tumbling in the air, Lucky and the worker ants grabbed hold of the leaves and floated to the surface of the river. Lucky indeed, he didn't fall into the water, and he was still lying firmly on the leaves. Only one of the worker ants around him remained, and one fell into the water and swam up the leaves, and the other worker ants disappeared in the process of falling.

Big-headed ants can't do anything about their luck floating on the river, and most of them can't even see what's on the leaves in the distance. Therefore, this small episode was completely ignored after it was reported to the kings by a few big-headed ant warriors.

With the help of the breeze, this fallen leaf was quietly blown to the north bank of the river. There, it is the territory of the Paving Ant Kingdom.

Lucky enough to climb the north bank of the river, he quickly found a companion from a nearby side nest and was taken back. Here, after some recuperation, he finally recovered.

The Vice-Nest sent a messenger to report the news of Lucky Returnee's return alive to the main nest of the Paving Ant Barbarian Nation, and in the past, few of the ants who had failed on the south bank of the river were able to escape back to the north bank alive, especially since this was still a great king.

Therefore, this news was highly valued by the king meeting of the paving ant barbarians, and they sent a force to the secondary nest to escort or escort Lucky back to the main nest.

Traditionally, a commander like Lucky, whose defeated legion was wiped out, was often executed by the King's Council. But this time, because he was lucky enough to bring back a lot of valuable information, the Council of Kings pardoned him for his defeat.

Luckily, the record of the combat effectiveness and unique tactics of the army of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom was sent to all the kings, causing an uproar.

All the kings of the paving ants can understand how passive the paving ant army will fall into once the big-headed ant kingdom army uses this tactic. Moreover, the Paving Ant Army can't even replicate this tactic, because there are no special soldier ants that have evolved among the Paving Ants.

The information brought back by Lucky was made into an information package, which was quickly passed on to the kings and kings of the entire Paving Ant Country, and all the Paving Ant males were thinking about how to deal with or even restrain the new tactics of the old enemy.

In terms of tactics, the paver ant is still slightly more innovative than the big-headed ant.

A long, long time ago, when the two sides fought for the land of Henan for the first time, the Paving Ant Army was defeated again and again because it could not cope with the soldiers of the big-headed ants, and finally had to lose a large area of territory when it was clear that it had a stronger overall national strength.

However, the paving ants did not gain nothing, and in countless battles, they gradually found a set of tactics that could restrain the big-headed ants and soldiers. This is the tactic that the protagonist has seen before: lure the big-headed ant soldier ants out of the line, and then cut off the connection between the big-headed ant soldier ants and the worker ants, and give priority to besieging and killing the soldier ants.

Relying on this set of tactics, the Paving Ant Army and the Big-headed Ant Army once again reached a draw, and the two sides were separated by a big river, and no one could help anyone.

This time, what I was lucky enough to see was mainly the concentrated use of soldier ants by the Public Security Legion and the Western Legion, which was not as incomprehensible as the razor tactics of the Divine Envoy King Legion.

After countless discussions, the Paving Ant Army finally revised a new set of tactics:

When defending, although the enemy's soldier ants are used intensively, it will be difficult for the paving ant army to cut off the connection between them and the big-headed ant worker ants as before, but if the siege force is increased, it will still be able to trap these soldier ants, after all, there are only ten worker ants in a team.

When attacking, it was extremely difficult to break through the line of the Big-headed Ant Pure Soldier Ant head-on, and the Paving Ant Barbarian Army finally found that if the first row did not attack, but tried to squeeze into the middle of the huge Big-headed Ant Worker Ants, there was a way to destroy the integrity of its formation and break through the defense line.

This is the tactics encountered by the Divine Envoy King Legion in the "Waterfront City", but this set of tactics is enough to deal with the Public Security Legion and the Western Legion, but it is difficult to deal with the razor tactics of the Divine Envoy King Legion.

I wonder what kind of changes will be caused by the withdrawn paving ant army after sharing this information?
