When the protagonist returns to the main lair, he summons all the kings again and announces to them that he has obtained the authorization to go on the expedition, and that he will go on the expedition after sunrise tomorrow.

Due to the identity of the protagonist and the fact that the ants do not lie, these kings believe the protagonist's words.

Roll and Rambo Fei report to the protagonist: the expedition troops have been formed.

This time, the size and establishment of the Divine Envoy King's legion are similar to the last time the protagonist set out to fight the Paving Ant Barbarian Army.

In the legion, the personal guard team directly under the protagonist has 54 soldier ants (including the soldier ant guards who have been following the protagonist since the early days, such as Mulan), and there are 30 subordinate squads, each of which is commanded by 1 king with 50 soldier ants. There are a total of 1,587 ants in the entire Oracle's legion (the protagonist himself, 30 kings, and 1,554 soldier ants).

Slightly different from the past, this time the protagonist asked the entire legion to no longer make up worker ants, but to add more soldier ants with strong individual combat effectiveness. This can effectively enhance the combat effectiveness of the legion.

Thanks to the ant mouth explosion before "Dongyang City", "Dongyang City" now has more than 10,000 ants, and its scale is among the best among all the secondary nests of the big-headed ant kingdom. It is precisely by relying on the current scale of the ant mouth that the protagonist can form such a legion of pure soldier ants.

There are not many veterans in this Divine Envoy King Legion, after the last war, there are still more than a thousand veterans left, but most of them are worker ants, and they are no longer incorporated into the legion this time.

Among the remaining veterans, there are still less than 200 of them who have died of old age, or died in the line of duty in the line of work and hunting.

The protagonist values these veterans very much, and they are evenly distributed among the squads as a backbone, with six or seven veterans in each squad.

Although the recruits also accept the tactical information packets of the Divine Envoy King's Legion passed on by the protagonist, their proficiency is almost zero if they are not trained in actual combat. With the demonstration of veterans, recruits are able to adapt to tactics more quickly.

There are thirty-two kings in the Genshin Impact Legion, and only thirty of them participated in the southern expedition this time. The protagonist keeps Rambo Fei and Rambo Fo, on the one hand, the two kings are responsible for staying in the "Dongyang City", and on the other hand, Rambo Fei also has the responsibility of teaching young male ants.

After the army is organized, the protagonist also deliberately passes a packet of information to the whole army. This information package is mainly a plan to deal with the silk thread parasite on the enemy's body.

In the plan, the protagonist emphasizes that all fighters should pay more attention to the silk parasites on the enemy's body, and if they are attacked by the silk parasite, their teammates must rescue them in time, and these silk parasites can be effectively killed by cutting off their heads.

These are all summed up by the protagonist based on his own experience.

If unfortunately it has been attacked by the silk thread parasite, according to the plan, the ants concerned must immediately report to the king, and the legion will unify the infected people and make other arrangements.

Subsequently, the protagonist orders the legions to disband, each to fill their stomachs, and set out after sunrise the next day.

After the protagonist is busy preparing for the expedition, he returns to his dormitory to rest.

Soon after, the secretary who was busy with work also returned.

Unlike Mulan, Xiao Mi has a high IQ and strong hands-on ability, and the protagonist gives her a lot of power, letting her be responsible for managing the entire handicraft industry of "Dongyang City", such as burning pottery in the combustion chamber and making sedan chairs.

In the human world, this is the position of an executive deputy mayor in charge of industry.

And although Mulan has also made great progress in intelligence, she can't take charge on her own, so she can only continue to serve as the protagonist's escort captain.

After the little secretary came back, he affectionately entangled with the protagonist's tentacles and greeted him, and then went to his own nest in the dormitory to rest.

The protagonist looks at Xiao Mi and thinks about the large worker ants in the parasitic nest that have replaced the male ants. From body size to intelligence level, Xiao Mi is indeed very similar to them.

Although she is slightly smaller than these large worker ants, she is still one size larger than the other worker ants, and her body proportions are very similar to those of these large worker ants, with a large belly, which is only slightly smaller than that of unmarried females.

Although there is no direct evidence, the protagonist secretly feels that there is a certain relationship between Xiao Mi and these big worker ants in the enemy camp.

But the protagonist can also feel that the little secretary is loyal, cordial, and not hostile to him. So the protagonist didn't take any vigilant measures against her, "don't be suspicious of people, don't use suspicious people", on the contrary, the protagonist also makes the best use of his talents, giving her more power little by little, and the little secretary can also complete her duties well.

He believes that the environment in which he grew up is the key to determining a person's character and values, and the same is true for ants.

The little secret is said to have been cultivated by Lao Wang soon after breaking the pupa and was entrusted with reuse, if you look at it by human standards, this is the same as father and daughter.

And Lao Wang is suspected of dying from the murder of parasitic ants. From this point of view, there is still a blood feud between Xiao Mi and the parasitic ant nest, and it is impossible to collude.

The protagonist discards these chaotic thoughts in his mind and slowly falls asleep.

————

The next day, after sunrise, the ready Divine Envoy King's legion set out and began its journey south to conquer the parasitic ant nest.

The legion was in the shape of a long serpentine and slowly left the nest of "Dongyang City".

Roll leads five squads as the vanguard, fanning directly in front of the team, responsible for clearing or driving away threats in the army's path, such as some carnivorous insects that like to ambush.

In addition, the route ahead is also to be explored. Although the general direction was southward, the route of the march could not have been a straight line. Some impassable ponds and giant trees need to be detoured, while easily overcomeable roadblocks need to be cleared.

Rambovan led five squads, and their task was not light, occasionally there were companions who were left behind or lost for various reasons, and the rearguard needed to contain them in time and assist them to return to the team when camping or resting.

Why are there ants left behind or lost? The ants are too small, and sometimes when they encounter a gust of wind, if an unlucky ant happens to climb on a fallen leaf that has been blown away, then they passively break away from the group. There are many such cases.

Fortunately, ants are born with a certain ability to navigate, and most of these ants can rely on instinct to return to their original routes. Those who are contained by the rearguard force will move with the rearguard force, and the rest will be able to follow the guidance of pheromones to catch up with the larger forces little by little.

This technique of dividing the vanguard and the rear guard is something that the protagonist learns from the police when he is campaigning against the Paving Ant Barbarian Army.

It can only be said that as a warlike species, the war skills of ants are still much better than their primitive counterparts.

And the protagonist himself is in charge of the Chinese army, and he still brings his royal palanquin, which is carried by two sturdy soldier ants.

Most of the time, though, the protagonist doesn't stay on the ground. He rode Xiaoqing out and flew in the sky most of the time, so that he could monitor the direction of the troops and make sure they didn't get lost.

Therefore, the Chinese troops on the ground, most of the time, are under the command of Lambotu.
