Chapter Eighty-Four: Training Agents

When all the captives had arrived, Lieutenant Colonel Shiso began to lecture, inducing and rebelling against them with his own words, and threatening them with hard labor and punishment on the other.

Soon, most of the captives were willing to surrender, and in addition to the three or four hundred dumb melons, more than two thousand six hundred brown ants were willing to join the red ants, which was also a strange news.

Lieutenant Colonel Shisu asked the hundreds of dumbfounded brown ants with great curiosity: Why would they rather serve hard labor than surrender?

Unexpectedly, some of these stupid melons said that they were afraid that being a traitor would insult the reputation of their ancestors, some said that they were afraid of losing the face of their fellow villagers, and some were afraid of affecting their relatives.

What's even more ridiculous is that some people even said that they were thinking about something else in the back just now, and their thoughts were deserted, and they didn't hear what he just said clearly, so they didn't come out to surrender.

Lieutenant Colonel Shisu was so angry that he couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, and in a fit of rage, he asked them all to go to hard labor.

Next, Shisu and the 1,500 red ant soldiers led by Houttuynia cordata began to train the nearly 2,600 captive soldiers who had surrendered.

Shisu first asked Houttuynia cordata to lead 800 red ant soldiers, and led more than 1,600 porters (worker ants) to the base camp to repair barracks and carry grain and grass goods.

It itself led the remaining 700 Red Ant Soldiers to train the remaining 1,000 Surrenderers.

The first is physical training, which involves running five laps along the large playground.

Then there is mountain climbing training, and then there is rapid burrowing and drilling training.

In short, train them as ground mice.

After all these trainings, it is time for high-intensity stunt training, such as rock climbing, high jumping, swinging and rolling.

Next, it's time to select smart and capable people for spy training.

Obviously, all this training cannot be done in a day.

After more than a month of training, Lieutenant Colonel Shisu selected fifty winners from among them for spy training, which was its original espionage talent.

At this time, Shiso's rank of lieutenant colonel had been officially wholesaled by the commander-in-chief, Cordyceps.

It trained these dozens of winners in basic espionage skills, such as observing words and feelings, quick response, improvisation, tracking and counter-tracking, and surveillance and counter-surveillance.

Plus, patience, endurance, and perseverance training, and so on. Since there are no human-like written records in ant colony societies, there are only some popular everyday words, which is very detrimental to the collection of intelligence information.

Lieutenant Colonel Shisu, a future person from our earth, although his writing skills are very strong, he wants to create a universal script for the ant colony society, and it is not something that can be done in a short time.

Because the written foundation of ant colony society is too poor and weak, many times worse than human illiteracy, it is not easy to improve their cultural level and cultural literacy!

Even if you compare a physical object with a certain word to explain the meaning to an ant, it may not be able to understand, let alone memorize, unless you meet a very intelligent ant like Banlangen, but the number of such ants is too small after all.

Lieutenant Colonel Shisu is indeed a headache and drudgery to engage in intelligence work in the ant world, which has no written foundation.

It seems that there is only another way to go.

The easiest way to do this is to use certain physical objects to represent a certain thing, such as:

A small leaf of grass indicates that a small group of enemy troops will come,

A large leaf of grass indicates that a large army of enemy troops will come,

A small white grass flower indicates that a group of enemy bug bombers will fly over,

A small yellow grass flower indicates that a group of enemy flea cavalry troops will come,

If there is nothing, it means that there are no enemies coming, etc.

When Lieutenant Colonel Shiso felt that his preparations were almost done, he reported to Banlangen.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Banlangen asked it again to eliminate the problem of internal moles.

Shisu also felt that this matter was very important, so it selected the most astute and capable 25 spies from the 50 spies it had trained, and asked them to secretly track and monitor the guards, orderlies, heralds, and communication soldiers near the headquarters and around the commander-in-chief and the regimental commanders.

During this period, Lieutenant Colonel Shisu also asked Banlangen to deliberately issue some fake orders for the transfer of troops, to see what reactions were there.

Soon, within a few days, Lieutenant Colonel Shisu had locked down five more suspicious red ant soldiers, including orderlies, heralds, and communication soldiers.

In the end, after careful deployment and secret surveillance, two traitors were finally found, an orderly and a communications soldier.

After completing the task of catching the traitor, Lieutenant Colonel Shisu officially began its main event - to go to the enemy camp to find out the secrets of the flea cavalry.

It's a very difficult task, and no one here has the ability to accomplish it except for its shiso.

Prior to this, Shisu was also fully prepared and sent out to inquire about the approximate residence of the enemy's flea cavalry team.

It set out tonight, with only five of its most loyal and reliable agents with it on this dangerous mission.

The other agents all stayed behind and listened to Banlangen's other arrangements.

A few days later, Lieutenant Colonel Shisu and his party, who had passed through more than a dozen enemy blockade lines, finally found the base camp of the enemy's special combat team, the Flea Cavalry Battalion.

Looking at the dense sentry posts and watchtowers in the distance, it is not easy to enter this enemy cavalry battalion!

Shisu, who was hiding in the grass, kept muttering in his heart, how can he get closer?

Who will you go to find out about the situation when you get in? How can you understand the situation without being detected by the enemy?

Shisu thought: Let's find the main road and gate to enter this barracks first.

After walking around the enemy barracks, they found a large road leading to the barracks and the main entrance to the barracks.

Naturally, there are many enemy soldiers guarding this place, and the security is very tight, so it is impossible to enter it casually.

Lieutenant Colonel Shiso dispersed his men and secretly monitored the intersection to see what kind of convoys of grain were coming in and out of the place.
