The protagonist has a plan, but it is not yet ready to be implemented, as the team he sent out on a covert mission has not yet heard back.

In addition, the military rations of the Northern Expeditionary Army of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom are indeed in short supply at present, and they can't afford to delay, so the protagonist suggests that the Northern Expeditionary Army give priority to attacking the two nearby paving ant auxiliary nests, which is a suggestion that is not mixed with selfishness.

These two sub-nests are not far from the "Northern Expeditionary Army Camp", about less than half a day's journey.

Because they originally belonged to the territory of the Paving Ant Country, there was also an ant road between the two nests and the "Northern Expeditionary Army Camp", and if you follow the pheromone of the paving ants, you can go straight to the destination.

Of the two target nests, one is located southwest of the Northern Expeditionary Camp, near the banks of the Great River, and the other is slightly westerly.

Both secondary nests have been attacked by the last wildfire, and after being detected by the Flying Knights of the Divine Envoy King's Legion and the Scouts on the ground, the protagonist knows that both secondary nests have a certain amount of ant mouth loss.

This is for the southern sub-nest of the Paving Ant Country, which is already weakly garrisoned, but it further weakens the defensive force.

The terrain of the two dens is also easy to attack and difficult to defend, and the Northern Expeditionary Army occupies the advantage of surprise attacks, so it should not be a problem to take these two dens in a short time.

The five kings attending the meeting have no source of intelligence, so naturally the protagonist is what he says. However, with their actual combat experience, they naturally understand that this kind of nest, which is very close and under-defended, is the most suitable target for the current food-starved Northern Expeditionary Army.

The only thing to worry about is that there is not much food in these two nests, which is not enough to supply the army for a few days, and this possibility is still very high, after all, they are just two insignificant ordinary side nests.

But the food reserves are not something that the scouts can find out, and the big-headed ants can't blend into the underground nests of the paver ants anyway, and vice versa.

In the end, it was agreed that 40 corps led by King Public Security and General B King formed the Southern Corps to attack the enemy's lair in the southwest, "Target A".

General King C and General King D lead forty legions to form the Northern Corps and attack Target B, a lair farther west.

After completing the objective, these two corps will use the newly occupied nest as a starting base, and continue to attack other targets, striving to raid and capture as many territories as possible before the paving ant barbarians react.

General King A led 20 corps as a mobile corps, staying behind in the "Northern Expeditionary Army Camp" and doing a good job in logistics and transportation.

The protagonist's Divine Envoy King Legion sent a number of elite squads to act as guides to accompany the operation.

- I'm the dividing line -

At the end of the meeting, the protagonist flew back to the "Waterfront City" on Xiaoqing II overnight.

In order to make it easier for the protagonist to find their destination on the pitch-black ground, some fires are lit near the entrance to the "Bridgehead" and "Waterfront City", and the worker ants are constantly feeding in fuel.

Under the bright moonlight and guided by the fire on the ground, the protagonist's first night flight lands smoothly. This is also due to the fact that the flight distance is not long, and there are obvious landmarks such as the big river and the big banyan tree as a reference.

Returning to "Waterfront City", the protagonist continued to hold meetings non-stop, and he gathered all the important ministers under his command in the northern territories.

Present at the meeting were the commander of the First Legion, Ranbot, the adjutant of the First Legion, Lambover, the commander of the Second Legion, the commander of the Fourth Legion, Lambot, and the commander of the "Waterfront City" garrison Corps, Da Rong.

In the northern territory, the protagonist's heavy troops are assembled, while in the southern territory "Dongyang City" and "Southern Fortress", there is only one field army and one garrison army.

This is because the northern "Waterfront City" had to face the invasion of the Paving Ant Army last winter, and after the beginning of spring, it had to carry out the task of opening up and defending the "bridgehead".

Now, the northern expeditionary army of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom has arrived, and the "Bridgehead" and "Waterfront City" have temporarily become a safe rear. The protagonist can take a portion of his forces and carry out his long-planned expansion strategy.

The Divine Envoy King's legion is almost the protagonist, but he still tells his generals the general strategy, encouraging them to participate in the development of strategy and tactics, hoping to train a few qualified commanders, rather than just following the ant tradition.

Of course, it is the protagonist himself who makes the final decision.

After some discussion, the protagonist boldly transferred the first, second, and fourth legions of the Divine Envoy King back to the south, but each of the three legions left a squad in the "bridgehead", and the "bridgehead" garrison corps was formed with these three squads as the backbone, and the commander was the former adjutant of the first legion, Lambasse.

The "Waterfront" garrison and the "Bridgehead" garrison will serve as the defensive force of the northern territory. In the current situation, I believe that there is no need for them to participate in any war.

The guide troops responsible for cooperating with the Northern Expeditionary Force of the Big-headed Ant Kingdom are all from the "Dongyang City" garrison corps, and it will not affect the transfer of the 1st, 2nd, and 4th legions to the south.

In addition to the three main legions, the protagonist also decides to take all of his paving ant groups to the south, including the Floating Leaf King, the paver ant queen Black Pearl, the worker ants, and the juvenile ants. The team was commanded by the Floating Leaf King, but escorted by the Second Legion.

In the future, the war in the northern territory will be fierce, and the big-headed ants and paving ants are bound to gather heavy troops here, which is no longer suitable for the protagonist's group of shady paving ants to carry out activities. Whoever discovers these paving ants belonging to the Divine Envoy King's legion will cause trouble for the protagonist.

However, the "Southern Fortress" area belongs to the border of the kingdom, and there is no other nest of big-headed ant activities, so it is a land that is not safe from leaks.

- I'm the dividing line -

The Divine King's legions were very efficient, and the next day they set out for the south.

Along the way, the 1st and 4th Legions will operate on the periphery, preventing any enemies or allies from the Big-Headed Ant Kingdom from approaching the interior of the Great-Headed Ant Kingdom.

Inside the army are the Paving Ants and the Second Legion, members of the Unexposed.

The Flying Knights also provide alert in the air, assisting the army in full compliance with wartime standards.

Along the way, they will camp in the wild at night, and will not enter any of the secondary nests of the big-headed ant kingdom to rest.

Therefore, this journey, although not far, is fraught with challenges, no less difficult than traveling through enemy territory.

The protagonist stays in the "bridgehead" first, and he has to keep in touch with the Northern Expeditionary Force of the Big-Headed Ant Kingdom to ensure that this sharp knife is in his hands.

As for the expansion plan in the south, considering that the army still has to march for three or four days on the road, and rest for another day, the protagonist will not be in a hurry to go back, and he will stay here for at least four or five days.

When the time comes, riding Xiaoqing II, the protagonist can arrive at "Dongyang City" in three or four hours. This treatment is similar to that of human marshals and generals who travel in different areas of a war zone by plane.
