Chapter 218: [Spiral Flower City] Siege (2)

Most of these legion-level commanders are third- or fourth-generation males, and a few are actually second-generation males assigned to the secondary nest.

Although after breaking the pupa and becoming adults, most of these male ants have received the education in charge of Lan Bofei in [Dongyang City], and have also received the guidance of the protagonist, and they have some new thinking.

However, most of them were only promoted to the king level due to seniority and other reasons during the major expansion of the army this year, and they have not been in command of a legion for a long time, and they lack experience and experience.

So although the protagonist solicited some suggestions, they were either not new, feasible, or neither.

The protagonist can only dismiss the meeting, such a big force, hundreds of nests, millions of ant mouths, after a few years, he still has to rely on his own strength to support, from strategic decision-making to tactical tricks, he has to do it himself, and he is really tired.

But the protagonist can't pick a child. Ancient people can still live in seclusion, but in this world, the lone ant is certain to die, and the protagonist is no exception, he still needs the assistance of a collective, and must ensure that this collective thrives and is not destroyed.

On the same day, the smoke attack tactics were ineffective, the combustion chamber, pipes, and sealed soil were temporarily removed, and the god made the king's army besiege [Spiral Flower City] without attacking, waiting for the protagonist's new countermeasures.

That night, the Destroyers also launched a counterattack against the army of the Divine Envoy King besieging the city, but it was discovered by the Divine Envoy King warriors on duty at night. The number of destroyers who attacked was small, and they quickly retreated after encountering resistance, with small losses on both sides.

The next day, the protagonist decides to experiment with the Demolition Siege tactic.

Since the maturity of gunpowder technology, in addition to a variety of firearms have been invented, such as poisonous smoke, ignition, and fire-breathing firearms, explosive firearms also appeared very early, and gradually called one of the most widely used weapons, blasting tactics have gradually become a major innovation in military affairs, and gradually become one of the most widely used tactics.

In the Song Dynasty, there were explosive weapons such as thunder. When the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom attacked the fortified city, they were good at digging tunnels and filling coffins with gunpowder to blast the city gates. During the Battle of Mewar during World War I, the British army planted as many as 600 tons of explosives in the tunnels at one time, so that the German army's carefully built defense line was lifted into the sky in an instant. In World War II, the German army was blocked by the Belgian fortress of Eben Emar, unable to complete its strategic mission, and also relied on paratroopers to raid and plant explosives.

The protagonist now has more than 2,000 mysterious balls just captured, and he has plenty of supplies, so he naturally thinks of using them.

Ignition requires fire, and early the next morning, the protagonist orders the Flying Knights to bring fire from the main lair [Qingqiu City].

Although smashing the mystery ball can also detonate the fire, it is very dangerous to do so, and it is better to make a simple gravity detonation machine than to use a nutshell fire.

At noon, the fire was transported by several bee flying knights, and the Divine Envoy King warriors also planted as many as fifty mystery balls near the entrance.

The Destroyers of the Underground hibernated, completely ignoring the Divine Envoy King's warriors busy inside and outside the entrance, a calm appearance that was very different from his cruel and bloodthirsty temperament.

Soon, a loud bang broke the calm, and a violent vibration came from under their feet, and even the Divine Envoy King warriors, who had received the news beforehand, panicked in the explosion.

A thick black smoke rose into the air, and large and small soil clods and sand particles baptized the nearby land with a radius of dozens of square meters like raindrops, and sand and gravel fell as far as ten meters away.

The sand that fell from the sky poured it from head to toe for the nearby Divine Envoy King warriors, making everyone disgraced. There were also some fighters who were hit by huge stones and were wounded.

However, the entrance and exit of [Spiral Flower City] were also blown open by an orange-sized gap, and some of the destroyers outside were either blown into the sky, or they were shocked and suffered internal injuries, and they couldn't walk staggeringly.

There are also several passages underground, which are faintly exposed from the ups and downs after the explosion.

At the sound of an order, the two Divine Envoy King legions immediately rushed forward and attacked the gap that had exploded.

At first, the Divine Envoy King's army went smoothly, and the destroyers guarding the outer defense line were either killed or wounded, and the wounded were also dizzy, and did not put up a strong resistance at all.

The Divine Envoy King Legion once broke into the depths of the ground, but was soon forced to retreat with heavy casualties due to the counterattack of the Destroyer's new forces.

After an attack, the Divine Envoy King's army probably killed more than 50 destroyers, and lost more than 200 warriors themselves, and failed to gain a foothold underground.

The protagonist is hot-blooded, and he still doesn't believe in this evil, and he organized two detonations in one day, one time he released fifty mysterious balls, and the other time he put a hundred mysterious balls in a hurry.

After a series of explosions, the vicinity of the entrance and exit of [Spiral Flower City] was already unrecognizable, and three huge explosion craters overlapping each other were as striking as craters on the moon.

There are dozens of passages exposed or buried in the floating earth, and the Destroyer side of the defense no longer has the concept of entrances and exits, and there are openings everywhere.

However, the warriors of the Divine Envoy King rushed and killed several times, but they could not attack it.

Although the three explosions seemed to the ants to be powerful and earth-shattering. But the true yield is the degree of a few grenades for humans.

The earth is the best cover for the defending side, absorbing a large amount of blast energy. Deep in the underground nest**, the destroyers inside did not suffer any damage from the explosion.

In hand-to-hand combat in the narrow passage, the destroyer has an absolute advantage, and even if the siege tactics of the small detachment are adopted, there is no room for the Divine Envoy King warriors to play in the passage.

In such a state, every destroyer is like Zhang Fei on the Nagasaka Bridge, and he can't be opened. It's like a turret that kills countless enemies in a tower defense game, making the attacker hate and break their wings every time.

At the end of the day, the Divine Envoy King's army did not advance an inch, but only killed more than a hundred destroyers, and lost more than 400 soldiers himself.

This day's siege still failed to make progress, and two hundred mystery balls were consumed in vain. In this way, it takes an average of one or two mystery balls to eliminate an enemy, and some of the enemies who were killed by the explosion have nowhere to capture the mystery balls to replenish the losses, which makes the protagonist feel that he is losing money.

had to withdraw his troops.

As dusk approaches, the protagonist receives military reports from various other places.

The [bridgehead] on the north bank of the Great River indicates that the enemy is showing signs of increasing forces and is attacking with increasing intensity, but the defenders are not in danger due to their geographical advantages.

On the swampy side, the parasitic ants launched several attacks, all of which were broken in front of the protective nets and ballistas.

Fortunately, there is no strong threat elsewhere, and the protagonist is relieved that he still has time to concentrate on dealing with this difficult enemy in front of him.
