Chapter 206: Artillery Ploughs Bombs Plough Fields
In the face of several enemy forces on the outskirts of the city, the defenders of [Pioneer City] had no sense of fear, and this was the temperament of a victorious army.
Even the newly formed 8th and 9th Army Corps have hundreds of veterans as the core, and there are veterans who have been in a hundred battles as an exemplary role, and the recruits will neither be afraid of the enemy's numbers, nor will they be arrogant and underestimate the enemy because of their bravery.
When a few rash tribes were the first to attack and retreated, the other indigenous tribes did not pounce on them one by one and send them to their deaths.
Those small and medium-sized tribes are waiting for the action of several large tribes, with the intention of hugging their thighs and getting a piece of the pie, they will never take the initiative to gnaw hard bones
Among the coalition forces, the strongest Argentine ant tribal alliance has suffered the loss of the Divine Envoy King's army, and is still gathering troops, and constantly sending messengers to communicate with several nearby tribes, they focus on contacting the more powerful paving ant and corn ant tribes, and want to act together to increase the chances of victory.
The little yellow ant tribe that arrived later has always traveled alone, they did not see the tragic situation of the tribe that had just been defeated, and they were not interested in joining forces with other tribes and sharing the spoils. After arriving at the battlefield, the Little Yellow Ant Army ignored the joint request of the Argentine ant messenger and launched an attack on its own.
There were a few small and medium-sized tribes that saw that the big tribes were coming out and immediately followed.
This time, the indigenous tribes attacked the southeastern city wall, which was garrisoned by the 4th Army Corps, and the city wall was equipped with 6 mung bean cannons and 9 millet cannons.
The defense of the 4th Army Corps under the command of "Rambo III" was very orderly, and instead of holding the city walls with his whole army, he left half of his mobile troops inside the walls.
The artillery under the command of the 4th Army Corps did not shoot blindly, but waited until the best range before suddenly bursting into force, and immediately blew up the enemy.
The Warrior is very small, half as small as the Big-headed Worker Ant, and although it is not easy for the cannonball to directly hit these small enemies, the shock wave is enough to injure them.
Every time a bomb lands, it can injure more than a dozen or twenty little yellow ant warriors.
As they accelerated to move closer, the defenders began to fire again with slings.
The little yellow ant warrior finally rushed into the trenches, which were not connected to the water source and were dry and could not stop the ants from crossing over. The ditch and the foot of the city wall were also blind spots for artillery firing, and the little yellow ant tribe finally breathed a sigh of relief for the time being.
Don't look at the small size of these little yellow family ants, but they are extremely tenacious, and there were many casualties on the way to the charge just now, but this can't discourage their ambitions.
After a little adaptation, the little yellow ant army began to climb the city wall and attack.
When it came time to engage in hand-to-hand combat, the Divine Envoy King warriors found that these small enemies were not easy to deal with, and they could bite the enemy into two pieces in one bite, but as long as these enemies were given the opportunity, they would deftly climb up their bodies and attack the compound eyes and joints exposed to the iron armor, so that several Divine Envoy King warriors were injured.
However, the little yellow ants often had to pay the price of a dozen warriors to injure a Divine Envoy King warrior, and it was even more difficult to kill a heavily armed target with their tiny jaws under the cover of other Divine Envoy King warriors.
The Little Yellow Ant Tribal Army held out for about a quarter of an hour, and "Rambo Buddha III" had already commanded the reserves, and they had climbed out of the other city walls that were not fighting to outflank.
The outflanking troops first easily defeated the troops of several small and medium-sized tribes that followed behind the Little Yellow Ant Tribe, and then prepared to surround the Little Yellow Ant Army.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the little yellow ants in the back retreated decisively under the leadership of the commander, and the remaining half of the little yellow ants were surrounded near the trench, and a massacre began.
Half an hour later, the corpse of the little yellow ant was almost covered with the ground, and the 4th Army Corps had just collected its troops and returned to the city.
At this time, the battle in other parts of the city wall is in full swing!
————
While the 4th Legion outflanked the Little Yellow Ant Tribe, the Argentine Ant Tribal Alliance finally came to an agreement with some other important tribes.
Several large tribes gathered their main forces directly west of [Pioneer City] and prepared to launch their main attack from here.
As for the fate of the little yellow ant tribe that was being surrounded more than ten meters away, even if these tribes knew, they didn't care.
Victory or defeat is the consequence that a tribe should bear on its own.
The direction of the enemy's main attack was located at the junction of the defense zones of the 2nd and 3rd Army Corps, and the commander of the 2nd Army Corps, "Rambo II II", was also the supreme commander of the entire [Pioneer City] garrison.
When he was in his homeland, the male ant commander under the protagonist's command, "Rambotu", was known for his good defense, and now "Rambotu II" is also the most calm and good commander of the male ants of the same generation, and the best at arranging defensive battles. It is precisely because of his similar temperament and style to "Rambotu" that the protagonist gives him the glorious name of "Rambotu II"!
"Lamberto II" cherishes his name and is determined to make it even more glorious with countless victories!
The junction of the two legions was often in a relatively weak position, and while the enemy was still deploying troops, but the intention had been revealed, "Rambotu II" immediately ordered the 2nd Army to take over the entire frontal defensive line, and the 3rd Army Corps divided two forces to cover on both flanks of the 2nd Corps, and the other troops monitored the southern wall, where a few small and medium-sized tribes were also wandering outside.
"Rambo II II" also transported all the mobile firepower of all 16 millet cannons to the western city wall to strengthen the firepower here.
At the same time, a reorganized team of flying knights stationed in [Pioneer City], except for those who rotated out to investigate, the other flying knights carried 2 bombs made of "mysterious liquid" and were ready to provide air support at any time.
When the enemy attacked, they were immediately met with 31 guns, and the dense formation caused them heavy losses.
Each time, the shells bounced through the dense enemy forces and cut through the gaps, like an iron plough ploughing through the soft ground.
When the enemy crossed the trench, the flying knights swooped down and threw their bombs into the trench, and the huge explosion kicked up the floating earth that almost filled the deep trench, and countless ants were scattered all over the field in an instant, and the wounded were struggling under the soil.
In the end, some small and medium-sized tribes took the lead in holding on and fleeing, followed by large tribes such as the corn hairy ant tribe and the paving ant tribe.
When the Divine Envoy King's army attacked on all fronts, even the unconvinced Argentine Ant Tribe Alliance Army could only flee quickly.
These indigenous ants are very good at escaping, different tribes are scattered and fleeing in all directions, the speed is very fast, the army of the god envoy king can only catch a few eye-catching targets such as the Argentine ant tribal alliance and chase them, and the rest of the small and medium-sized tribes have no choice but to let them escape.
A fierce battle of dozens of tribes besieging [Pioneer City] has come to an end.
