Chapter 248: The Situation is Changeable
At dawn the next day, because of the summer, the sun broke through the clouds early and illuminated the earth, and both sides once again fought without hesitation, and both sides exerted all their might, and the war became more cruel and fierce.
This time, the Vietnamese army learned to be cunning and adopted a new tactic, many Yue monkey ants climbed on the tall grass leaves, and with the power of rebound, they opened their claws and threw themselves at the Red Ant Army soldiers, tightly hugging the opponent's neck or body, so that the opponent could no longer use "spears" and "sticks", and at the same time, using the sharp teeth in their mouths to bite and chew the opponent's head and body, so as to destroy the opponent.
In addition, the Monkey Ant Army also uses "poison gas bombs" - the "too nasty" spores of the germs parasitic on the corpses of the Red Ant Army soldiers in areas where the Red Ant Army has a local advantage in numbers, and launches a "too nasty" bacteriological warfare against the Red Ant Army (this despicable tactic has also been used before).
When the enemy suddenly used these three indiscriminate tricks, the number of casualties of the Red Ant Army immediately rose in a straight line, and its total casualties soon exceeded one million, while the enemy's casualties were gradually decreasing, and gradually, the Red Ant Army could not parry.
Seeing that the situation on the battlefield had suddenly taken a sharp turn for the worse, "Luo Buma," the commander-in-chief of the two armies of the Red Ant Army, had no choice but to order the whole army to retreat, and to find a big tree to climb nearby, and all of them retreated to the branches and leaves of the big tree......
It didn't take long for the scarab swarm, like a large dark cloud, facing a large group of Yue monkey ant army on the ground who were enjoying the joy of the first "victory", and the head of the head was one after another "wild bombardment", and the acid rain fell from the sky, and suddenly, the enemy's "plastic melted" generally fell in pieces, and the painful and miserable breath of formic acid and Yue monkey ants suddenly drifted around on the position......
The rest of the Vietnamese troops immediately looked for a place to hide, some drilled holes, some climbed trees, and some hid in the weeds...... The situation on the battlefield has once again reversed.
The fighting in the southern theater of operations is raging like "in full swing", while the northern and central theaters are quiet, and there is no much movement, except for sporadic small group battles.
This situation seems to be a bit unexpected by "Su Ye", and the unit he is in has not even seen a single hair of the enemy since that battle.
Just when "Su Ye" was a little puzzled by this, two beetles flying from the southern theater brought the latest news, so that "Su Ye" finally understood the strategic intention of the Yue Monkey Ant Country to escape, and immediately ordered the whole army to quickly advance to the south to reinforce the two naval armies that were fighting bravely in the southern theater.
Moreover, at this time, the southern campaign had entered the most critical moment, and the commander of the Red Ant Army, "Luo Buma", also felt that the enemy was desperately breaking through, and he asked the officers and men of the whole army to "grit their teeth" to resist and kill the enemy bravely. Due to the participation of the Scarab fighters, the Red Ant Army quickly regained its disadvantage and is now struggling to fight back.
The casualties on both sides are very heavy, the Red Ant Army currently has more than half of the casualties (the original army of four million, now there are only more than 1.8 million left), while the Yue Monkey Ant Army has lost more than 10 million, and now there are only five or six million soldiers and ants left who still have combat effectiveness.
Looking at the rapidly turning battle situation in front of him, "don't take it seriously" was anxious, but there was nothing to do. He knew very well in his heart: before the Scarab participated in the war, the combat effectiveness of the Red Ant Army was three or four times that of the Vietnamese Army, and now the Red Ant Army joined by Scarab has increased its combat effectiveness by several times. What's more, there are other directions of the Red Ant Army that are rapidly approaching here, if he can't break through in these two days, then he "don't take it seriously" and the only way left is to surrender.
Seeing that the troops of "Don't Take It Seriously" were about to collapse and collapse, they suddenly saw that the "Imperial History of the Imperial Court" was going and returning in a hurry, "Don't Take It Seriously" was puzzled, and hurriedly asked what was going on, and the "Imperial History of the Imperial Court" hurriedly told "Don't take it seriously" that he had brought the reserve army of the Yue Monkey Ant Country, the army of 13 million, which would arrive in a few days.
When he heard "don't take it seriously", he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately ordered to "sound the gong and withdraw the troops" and fight again in the coming day.
The commander of the Red Ant Army, "Luo Buma", felt a little strange, the enemy army gathered its troops so early today to avoid the battle, did he want to play some conspiracy?
"Luo Buma" is really worried at the moment! If nothing else, it is the "killer weapon" in his hand - the Scarab "bomber" is about to "run out of ammunition". The battle to intercept the enemy forces in the southern part of Vietnam was fought very hard, and the "ammunition" of the Scarab fighter - formic acid - was wasted greatly.
Why is this happening?
There are three reasons for this:
First, the Scarab fighters of the Red Ant Army have never fought in the primeval jungle, lack of experience, lack of preparation for battle, and did not play their due level;
Second, the visibility in the jungle is low, and the beetles are also blocked by weeds, branches and leaves from time to time, so that the artillery ants often miss the wrong place;
Third, the Yue Monkey Ant Army is good at jungle warfare, good at using terrain and landforms, and launching a game of "hide and seek" with Scarab fighters, making it difficult for Scarabs to find or find the specific location of the enemy for precise strikes.
To sum up, in the battles of the Scarab fighters in recent days, the attack efficiency has become lower and lower, and the enemy has become more and more cunning, and it seems that they have found an effective way to evade the bombing of the Scarab fighters.
At this time, the Scarab artillery ant had little ammunition left, which means that the Scarab could no longer participate in the war. However, the enemy has brought in a powerful reserve army - 13 million monkey ant soldiers.
The situation on the battlefield has reversed again, and it has turned to the side of the monkey ants, which is very unfavorable to the Red Ant Army. It seems that tomorrow's battle will be extremely difficult for our army!
"Luo Buma" pondered for a long time, and finally came up with a more useful temporary defense method, that is, to build three earthen walls with the height of three or four red ant soldiers in the forward position overnight, and build three lines of defense to block the enemy's attack. He immediately ordered all officers and men to carry forward the spirit of "fighting continuously without fear of fatigue," and all of them went into battle to establish these three lines of defense overnight in the form of "two shifts" (divided into sleeping and working in the middle of the night).
When dawn came, the three lines of defense were basically formed, and by 8 o'clock in the morning, they were all completed.
I saw that not far in front of the first line of defense, the black pressure of the Monkey Ant Army swooped down on the Red Ant Army. "Luo Buma" hurriedly ordered the best rested soldiers to immediately climb to the earthen wall of the first line of defense to defend against the enemy, the soldiers who were slightly rested climbed to the second line of defense to be ready to participate in the battle at any time, and the rest of the soldiers to sleep and rest behind the third line of defense to recuperate.
"Rob Ma" did this to try to hold off the enemy as much as possible, so as to wait for reinforcements to arrive at any time.
