The protagonist rushes back to the "bridgehead" and then gets more up-to-date information.

According to the reconnaissance of the Flying Knights, the enemy army is already organizing troops, because the scale of the Terrace Ant Barbarian Nest is limited, and some of the grouping work is even carried out on the ground, completely exposed under the noses of the Flying Knights.

This is the real hammer of the enemy's imminent military action, and it seems that the enemy's preparations have been fully rolled out, or in two days, the dense paving ant barbarian army will be under the city.

In addition, the Flying Knight also noticed that groups of paving ant barbarian army scouts began to march towards the "bridgehead", and judging from the pattern of their movements, they were obviously looking for a path for the army to pass.

Although the Paving Ant Barbarian Army is a local native, the original "bridgehead" area is not an area where the Pave Ant Barbarian is active, but a remote area that is inaccessible is located in the border forest area.

Therefore, it took a long time for the paving ant barbarian army to find out that the big-headed ant kingdom army had actually appeared here. Therefore, before the official march, the commander of the Paving Ant Barbarian Army sent a large number of scouts to understand the terrain and the distribution of the defenders.

The protagonist simply keeps an eye on the actions of the Flying Knights and does not send ground troops to expel or eliminate the enemy scouts.

This kind of reconnaissance is impossible to prevent, and the protagonist does not want to lose too many troops in sporadic scout battles that cannot take advantage of the tactical advantages of the Divine Envoy King's legion. Anyway, the "bridgehead" is here, and it can't be moved away and hidden, so it is simply enough for the enemy to reconnoitre.

Preparations for the "bridgehead" were in full swing, the fortifications were repaired and strengthened again, some of the collapsed parts were rebuilt, and the drainage ditches were widened.

In addition, the protagonist also carries out the mobilization of troops and materiel.

Originally, only Rambotu's Fourth Legion was stationed in the "bridgehead", and the First Legion of Rolling and Rambofo's Second Legion were on standby in "Waterfront City", and the protagonist had ordered these two legions to march and rush to "Waterfront City" with supplies.

Due to the limited ability of the suspended rope bridge to pass, it will take another day for both forces to arrive, and the two commanders Roll and Rambofo have already arrived in advance.

Those who remained in the "Linshui City" were left with the garrison corps of the original "Linshui City" garrison as the team, and the commander was the "Great Banyan".

The Great Banyan was originally the king of the "Waterfront City" and the highest local governor, and when he was preparing for the war last winter, he obeyed the arrangement of the main nest and was included in the protagonist's command.

After a whole winter, the big banyan basically didn't get a chance to fight, and the protagonist didn't know much about his abilities, but he knew that the king liked to eat the specialty of "Linshui City" - sun-dried banyan fruit with a hint of sweetness, so he gave him such a name.

However, after all, he is the old man of "Waterfront City", so when forming a garrison corps based on the original "Waterfront City" garrison, the protagonist still used him, showing his reassurance.

The garrison corps of "Waterfront City" is not yet formed, only about 1,000 soldiers, but as long as the "bridgehead" is not lost, "Waterfront City" does not have any military pressure, just do a good job of front-line material warehouses.

More than 7,000 soldiers from three legions gather in the "bridgehead", and the protagonist thinks that even if the enemy army sends tens of thousands of troops, it will not be able to help the Divine Messenger King Legion.

However, how to fight the battle in front of us, we still have to sum it up.

The five commanders of the protagonist, rolling, Rambofo, Rambotu, and Flyhawk constitute the supreme command body of the war zone, and the protagonist is of course the decision-maker, but the other kings, as legion commanders or flying knight captains, still have the power to participate and advise.

The protagonist doesn't tell his plan at the beginning, he decides to listen to his subordinates first and develop their strategic and tactical vision.

The protagonist has also realized that now the Divine Envoy King's army relies too much on himself, which may be conducive to strengthening his control over his subordinates, but doing everything himself is too energy-consuming, and the protagonist needs to achieve a balance between grasping power and delegating power, and cultivate some loyal but independent talents.

In addition to the main character, Roll, Rambopho, Rambotu and Dragonfly Eagle are divided into two factions on the battle plan and there is a disagreement.

Ants are less likely to form cliques than humans, making decisions based more on their own rules, character, or habits than on their own party affiliation and status.

The more cautious Rambo and Rambo proposed to rely on the complete fortifications of the "bridgehead" to preserve our strength as much as possible and repel the enemy's attack.

And the brave Roll and the free-spirited Flyhawk said that they should take the initiative to attack and eat this enemy army that is not too many troops in the field.

The Eagle even said that he could allocate some troops to his male ants, who acted as flying knights, so that they could also go into battle.

It seems that simply acting as a flying knight is no longer enough for these warlike males, and they also want to lead the battle like ordinary legion commanders and squad commanders.

The protagonist rejects the Flyhawk's offer, as it takes far more resources and time to train a Flying Knight than an ordinary Ant Commander, and the role that a Flying Knight can play in a war is even greater than that of a fully assembled elite army.

The protagonists of both schools of thought are already aware.

There are pros and cons to both tactics, and holding on to a fortress can indeed lead to victory at minimal cost, but the war is bound to last longer. And the decisive battle in the field sounds like a heart-wrenching battle, but with the strength of the Divine Envoy King's army, facing the enemy army head-on, it is bound to have some losses.

The protagonist must also consider the impact on the enemy after the victory, as well as the enemy's reaction next.

Holding on to a fortress and making the enemy admit defeat after a long battle may give the enemy the illusion that victory can be achieved with a little more effort. Will it lead to the enemy gathering more forces again?

And if it is to completely defeat the enemy in front of you with a hearty field battle, it may also make the enemy realize the horror of the defenders of the "bridgehead", so as to adjust the strategy and regard the "bridgehead" as the number one target?

In any case, no matter how powerful the Divine Envoy King legion is, it is no match for the endless army of paving ant barbarians.

The protagonist can't let his forces get caught up in the endless attrition with the Paving Ant Barbarian Army, thus weakening his own strength.

What he hopes more is for the main force of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom Army to cross the river and form a strategic stalemate with the Paving Ant Barbarian Army. At this time, the Divine Legion of Kings can get more development opportunities in the cracks.

And the Big-headed Ant Kingdom Army has already gained an advantage on the frontal battlefield, and it won't be long before it can move north.

What the protagonist needs now is time.
