Chapter 230: The Final Battle (3)

Two days into the underground battle, the Destroyer had left thousands of corpses behind, and the defenders had paid thousands of casualties to protect the ballistas.

The enemy was never able to take a place underground, and was always forced to retreat before nightfall. One night the Destroyer tried to occupy a nest near the entrance and not retreat, but was regained by the defenders' death squads with heavy casualties.

However, the number of destroyers besieging [Qingqiu City] has increased unabated in the past few days, and the Flying Knights have found that enemy reinforcements are coming from the north every day. This is the evil result of the loss of the Great River Moat, and the Divine Envoy King's army has to fight against the huge enemy army.

Flying knights who go out in the early hours of the morning will wander over the battlefield during the day to reconnoitre, hide in the high canopy of trees to avoid the enemy, and return at night when the enemy retreats. They will report any detected enemies to the Divine Messenger King.

There are also flying knights who travel to other parts of the territory during the day, which is the only means of communication between the Lonely City [Qingqiu City] and other lairs.

Under the cover of [Qingqiu City], most of the nests in the original core area have completed their relocation and are reorganizing production to prepare for a protracted war, but it will take time to fully resume production.

Disturbingly, on April 25, at dusk, the Flying Knights discovered that thousands of White-bellied Destroyers, escorted by some ordinary Great Destroyers, were arriving from the north and had reached the outskirts of the battlefield.

The entire Divine Envoy King Legion knew that it was these white-bellied destroyers who would blow themselves up that caused the defense line that the army had worked so hard to manage completely collapsed. The males gritted their teeth at the thought of these enemies.

Several flying knights swooped down on the wave of enemies, attacking with their firebomb slings they carried. This is a spontaneous act and is not instructed by the protagonist.

The flying knights used fire bomb slings in a very different way than the ground troops.

The warriors on the ground are more powerful, holding the rope with their jaws and spinning the projectile to a higher speed before throwing it for a longer range.

In the air, the mounts are unstable in flight and the oncoming wind resistance is also large, and the male ant flying knights are unable to rotate the fire bomb sling, and the rope of the fire bomb they use is simply shorter, directly piercing the outer membrane and dropping the fire bomb vertically, relying on inertia and gravity to attack.

The fireballs dropped by several flying knights were scattered in the air like a few small sparks that flickered and flickered, fluttering and swaying slowly into the team of white-bellied destroyers.

Because of the poor hit rate of this attack method, the flying knights dive to a low altitude before dropping the bomb, and then immediately pull up to avoid being accidentally injured by the fire dropped by the friendly forces in front, much like a dive bomber.

A flying knight swooped too low and was caught by the Great Destroyer of the guards, killing him instantly.

But they were not without results, the fire bomb directly hit the two white-bellied destroyers, the fire bomb was extremely viscous when heated, once it stuck to the enemy, it would never be thrown off, and even if it fell to the ground, it would stick like a maggot attached to the bone.

A white-bellied Destroyer was shot in the head, and the scorching long-burning fire shell burned the shell of its head, and the Destroyer suffered a wound to the nerve center, and immediately fell to the ground and died.

The other was shot in the abdomen, and the temperature of the fire bomb caused the mysterious ball in its body to be detonated, and the bones of the directly blown up were gone.

However, the explosion alone did not trigger a chain explosion of the mysterious ball in the bodies of the other white-bellied destroyers, otherwise maybe these flying knights would have completely eliminated the white-bellied destroyers at this time with their own strength, which would have changed the situation of the battle later.

In the evening, the report of the returning flying knight is obtained, and the protagonist knows that the most difficult stage of the defensive battle has arrived, and the underground fortifications that have been painstakingly managed are equally vulnerable to the enemy's self-detonation.

What to do? The gods have made the King's legion not sit still!

- I'm the dividing line -

The sun rises in the early morning, which is a good day for many days, and the crystal dew drops on the blades of grass reflect the sunlight in a colorful light.

The Destroyers awaken from a night of hibernation, bathed in the energy of the sun, and then suck the dew to replenish their moisture.

They began to converge around the commander, coming out of the hidden place in a formation of groups and gathering towards the target [Qingqiu City] in an orderly manner.

Another day of siege is about to begin, and the Destroyers have no mood swinging, they have conquered countless such nests, most of them much smaller than this nest, but some are larger than this nest, the largest of which has millions of ants.

There is no lair that can survive and be destroyed. Conquer, kill and then destroy, this is the natural mission of the destroyer.

But today, the battle has become different.

The Destroyers had just gathered, and the White-bellied Destroyers, alone in front of the encirclement, were preparing to go up first and use their self-explosion to open the sturdy shell of the lair.

At this time, from the top of the anthill hill, the Destroyers with good eyesight suddenly found that a large group of Divine Messenger King warriors and beetles were swarming out, commanding an orderly formation, and immediately charging downward, pointing directly at the location of the white-bellied destroyer.

In the air behind him, a sudden dense sound of flapping wings sounded, and when he looked back, he saw that on a big tree behind him, hundreds of bees were suddenly swarming, and they were also flying towards the position of the white-bellied destroyer.

It was a fierce counterattack from the Divine Envoy King's legion.

According to the protagonist's plan, the Divine Messenger King's legion will launch a counterattack early this morning before the enemy has attacked, with the goal of eliminating the group of white-bellied destroyers.

The White-bellied Destroyers are the most threatening of the enemy, but they are few in number, and they don't seem to be ready to come back.

As long as this group of white-bellied destroyers can be eliminated, the enemy may not have this class to participate in the siege in a short period of time, and with the strength of [Qingqiu City], if the grain and grass can be solved, it is enough to hold out for a long time, providing more time for the rear to complete the integration.

Today's counterattack was divided into two forces, air and ground, at the same time, and this was also the first joint air-ground operation of the Divine Envoy King Legion.

With the Fire Bomb Sling, the Flying Knights have a certain amount of ground attack power, which makes this coordination tactic possible.

In the air was an assault force of 150 flying knights, carrying 600 fire bombs and slings. This is already more than seventy percent of the Flying Knight strength in the entire [Qingqiu City].

Their mission is to attack the White-Belliked Destroyer team directly from the air, while creating opportunities for the Army by creating chaos by bombarding in the direction of the Army's attack.

After all, it is the first time that the Flying Knights have been engaged in large-scale combat, and the protagonist still pins his hopes on the army.

The troops that attacked this time, including the tank units of the 1st Army Corps, and the remaining 9 infantry corps, were all veteran units with combat experience.
