Chapter 215: Rebellion!

This is a mutiny, it is a rebellion!

The most hated thing in the protagonist's life is that someone betrayed him, the former big banyan and the dragonfly, these two betrayers make the protagonist want to eat their flesh and skin.

Now that Da Rong has been executed by the protagonist, he has calculated a bad breath, and the life and death of the dragon eagle are still unknown.

Now, there is one more betrayer, no, a whole bunch more!

Several nests near the missing secondary nests, the air and ground search teams sent out, quickly found out the truth.

In the nearby junkyard of the three secondary nests where the Flying Knights lost contact with each other, the Flying Knights found a dense mass of corpses.

There are the corpses of the flying knights of the gods, the corpses of a large number of big-headed ants and paving ants, and the corpses of some ants of other races, which are piled up into corpse mounds, and there are more than 10,000 corpses.

Some of the corpses were fresh, some were decomposed, and apparently many of them had been piled up under the nest before being discarded to the garbage dump on the ground after the beginning of spring.

When the reconnaissance team on the ground arrived near the three nests, they came into contact with the local ants who had fled in the wilderness, and before they had time to doubt, they soon received a warning from the air.

A large group of burrowing ants, bellied ants and Japanese black brown ants slaughtered out of the underground nest and rushed straight to the reconnaissance team, obviously not good.

They were all armed with ston-jawed knives on their large jaws, which indicated their status as slaves.

Nowadays, the citizens of the Ant Alliance, whether they are soldier ants or worker ants, are generally equipped with iron jaw knives, except for some special occupations that are not suitable for equipping sharp tools.

This tool can be used not only for combat, but also for hunting, mowing grass, and digging soil.

The copper jaw knives that were originally equipped in large quantities could not be replenished because there were no copper mines here, and only a small amount of stock that was brought from the homeland was left, and now it is no longer equipped.

In addition to exporting, the stone jaw knife was also equipped with a large number of slave ants involved in the canal project, which can significantly improve their excavation efficiency, and there is a generation difference between them and the iron weapons of the ant alliance.

Judging from the stone jaws on the jaws of these attacking ants, they are the former slave ants who participated in the construction of the canal!

The slave ants of the three nests had apparently rebelled and began to attack their original owners in a frenzy. Although the reconnaissance team was escorted by two squads of local garrisons, it could not withstand the siege of thousands of enemies, so it could only fight and retreat.

When the casualties were more than halfway, the Flying Knight finally led the nearby lair to send reinforcements and took the scout team back.

The protagonist is furious when he hears the news, and immediately orders the local slave ants to be guarded by the local slaves and ants in various nests, and beware of slave rebellion.

At the end of last autumn, more than 100,000 surviving slave ants of the canal engineering team were assigned to spend the winter in 6 secondary nests, and now 3 secondary nests are occupied by rebels, and it is estimated that the most rebellious slave ants are 60,000, and the remaining slave ants have not yet rebelled, and are distributed in the remaining 4 smaller nests.

After taking care of these slave ants and temporarily relieving the internal troubles, the protagonist sets out to extinguish the rebels.

It is unknown why these slave ants rebelled, but from the available information, it is clear that three nests rebelled together in winter, apparently before winter, but did not affect the other four nests.

The protagonist is annoyed that he didn't notice the abnormality in the slave ants before the winter, and the male ants and professional ants are very obedient, and the protagonist is also complacent about promoting some male ants to naturalize as a typical little trick, but he didn't expect that this group of unfamiliar white-eyed wolf slaves gave himself a resounding slap in the face as soon as spring began.

The strength of the rebels is not strong, even if all the slave ants in these 3 nests participate in the rebellion, that is, 60,000 ants, they are not elite. And when they kill the local big-headed ants, paving ants and other citizens, and slaves who are unwilling to rebel, there must be losses, and there are tens of thousands of corpses in the garbage heap on the ground.

These slave soldiers will not be very strong in combat, and the Divine Messenger King's legion can be wiped out by mobilizing four or five legions.

However, the main army corps on the north bank of the Qing River are now mainly stationed in [Xinyang City], [February Lancheng], [Red Iron City] and other places, and many legions have also transferred some squads as the backbone of the formation of the new corps, and now they are not yet formed.

It would take a few days to assemble these troops, but the slave ants had already begun to attack.

More than 30,000 slave ants began to attack in four directions, launching an offensive against the four nearby secondary nests. These sub-nests have tens of thousands of ant mouths, but the remaining three have only two or three thousand ant mouths, and the local garrison has only 4 squads, and the most is 10 squads, which can only be defended by all the people.

Fortunately, the largest number of secondary nests in various places are the big-headed ant residents, and even the worker ants are mostly equipped with iron jaw knives, and the racial habits are good at fighting, and the rebellious slave ants have not been able to take advantage of anything.

And among the rebel slave warriors who attacked from all sides, the flying knight finally noticed several figures that should not have appeared.

With a fiery red body, a crimson belly, and a stout and sharp jaw, no one can mistake their identity, they are red fire ants.

A small number of red fire ants are mixed in with the rebel slaves of belly ants, burrowing ants, and Japanese black brown ants, and if you don't look closely, you can really miss it.

Why did the Red Fire Ants, who had fled to the Paving Ant Empire in the north, appear in the rebel army? How did they end up here? And what role did it play in this rebellion?

The protagonist feels that things are getting complicated, this is not a simple riot of conquered slave ants, there is also the figure of the red fire ant clan in it, so... Will the Paving Ant Empire also be involved?

There is also another possibility, although the red fire ant clan was defeated and fled to the north, but in other places, there are also red fire ants who fled outside and were not caught.

Could it be that they ventured into the nest of the ant alliance in order to overwinter, and met the slave ants who were wintering here, inciting these former slaves to rebel?

The protagonist asks the General Staff Office of the Military Department to continue to be responsible for collecting relevant information, and if the mid-level and high-level male ants who can capture the Red Fire Ants or other rebels in the later battles, they will also be handed over to the General Staff Office for interrogation.

The protagonist is determined to find out the truth.

————

The 1st, 3rd, 12th, 13th, 15th, and 16th legions, a total of 6 corps, were drawn to quell the rebellion.

They arrived at the front from their respective stations.

At this time, the several secondary nests that were attacked had already stabilized the defensive line, and the slave ants who had not concentrated their forces were unable to break through any of the nests, and their weak combat effectiveness had been exposed.

According to the plan, the next 6 legions will be overwhelmed by Mount Tai and wipe out the slave ants who retreated to the 3 sub-nests of the rebellion in one fell swoop.

But at this moment, there was heavy news coming from [Xinyang City] - the God Envoy King was in danger!
