Chapter 213: Reinforcements Arrive
"Prostate" lamented the injustice of God and the corruption of the domestic system, and in a fit of rage, he withdrew from the military and went to teach as a teacher (professor) at Kyoto Imperial University.
Besides, the "broken fart" only received this batch of 6,000 stink fart "bombers" at noon yesterday, and was pleasantly surprised to see the "big killer" of the Japanese Blue Country.
As soon as he received these big treasures, "Broken Fart" immediately notified the other three leaders of the coalition forces, "Pig Incompetent", "Didn't Wake Up" and "Stinky Monkey" to come over to discuss urgent military operations, saying that there was something good to share with everyone.
There is such a clever think tank as "Stinky Monkey", and I am not afraid that some people are pig brains, or they haven't woken up.
Because of "Collapse Fart", it will collapse a huge fart, a big stinky fart that can smoke tens of millions of enemies.
Since "Broken Fart" loves to fart, and a fart will destroy all the enemies, then let it go, and we can save our hands.
It is for this reason that the very strange and unusual phenomenon that occurred yesterday afternoon was made.
It's no wonder that the ants of the Blue Country like farts so much, and almost most of the "people" have the word "fart" in their names, precisely because their stink fart insect "bombers" have repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and have repeatedly made great achievements at critical moments, so that they can turn the tide of danger, and the "fart" will bless them, and the "fart" is their god.
Just when the stinkbug "bomber" was arrogant and wantonly harvesting the lives of the soldiers and civilians of the Red Ant Empire, suddenly, 3,800 Scarab bombers flew over from the other side of the river, and the reinforcements of the Third Empress Su (who was about to become the queen of the Red Ant Empire) finally arrived.
The situation on the battlefield has finally taken a dramatic turn......
The soldiers of the Red Ant Army who were still alive on the ground were really sad and joyful, and couldn't help muttering to themselves, "Why are you here? We're all gone. ”
A fierce air battle inevitably took place.
Since there are only one or two "pilots" on the enemy bug "bomber" who are responsible for controlling the direction of the bug's flight, and there are no artillery ants, it can only attack the enemy on the ground, but it has no power to fight back against the Scarab fighter with more than 10 artillery ants.
The Scarab fighter seized on this weakness of the enemy plane, and when the stink bug "bomber" had to stop on the ground to rest, it immediately pounced on it and fired formic acid bombs to deliver a fatal blow.
Obviously, the enemy bug "bombers" will not be willing to be killed by the Scarab fighters in this way, as soon as they land on the ground, they immediately rise up and fly away, like dragonflies in water, and desperately flee towards the woods to avoid the pursuit of the Scarab fighters.
Soon, the bugs were driven into the woods by the beetles.
Without the goal of stink bugs, the Scarab fighter can only use the enemy ants on the ground to steam their anger, and bomb wherever there are many enemy ants.
Suddenly, the enemy's formation was in chaos, pushing each other and fleeing for their lives.
The breeze on the river was blowing slowly, and the poisonous gas on the position was slowly dispersed......
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, suddenly, hundreds of palm leaves floated from the upper reaches of the river, and on each leaf stood hundreds of red ant soldiers and strange thin trees and thin branches and straight grass roots, as well as hundreds of dragon lice, each of which carried a dozen artillery ants on its back.
What's going on here?
It turned out that when the Red Ant Empire underwent a series of shocking changes, Queen Su San, who was nested in Su San Castle, was kept in the dark and didn't know at all.
She is still busy with her great cause, and now she has become a "big player", and is organizing a large number of "people" to develop her new weapon, the trebuchet, which is a common long-range weapon on the battlefield of ancient humans.
In the beginning, she just led the group to make a small sample, a small trebuchet that was only half a meter away from the size of a human.
Now she has built a giant trebuchet that can project a human at a distance of two or three meters, similar to a human being that can throw three or four hundred meters away, which is a huge progress!
So how do you make the trebuchet used by this ant?
In fact, it is very simple to say, it is to use a simple "lever principle" to make a successful one, which is simpler than the trebuchet used by ancient humans.
Specifically, there is a small tree made of small branches stuck in the ground, and a slender wooden stick is hung on top of the tree.
A sturdy straw rope was tied to one end of the stick, which was pulled by several large and strong ants;
The other end is tied with a small bamboo basket or rattan basket woven from thin bamboo strips or rattan strips to place small pebbles or pebbles.
This trebuchet is easy to say and not difficult to make, but it is more difficult for humans and ants to operate.
It's not that ants are too stupid to do such a simple thing.
It's because there are two basic tricks here that are not easy to master, and you have to be very proficient.
What are the two tips?
The first is the distance of the fulcrum in the middle of the trebuchet, that is, the placement of the stick on the tree, or the proportion between the fulcrum and the two ends of the stick, which will largely determine the distance of the stone projected.
The second is the problem of ants pulling the straw rope, which must be fast and in unison, so as to be able to throw the stone far and accurately.
Of course, the higher the fulcrum of the tree and the longer the stick, the farther the stones will be thrown. There is no doubt about it.
However, this also depends on the size of the ants and the limit of their physical fitness.
Therefore, according to the limit of the best red ant colony in the red ant country, the third queen of Su made a trebuchet suitable for actual combat, and threw small stones at a distance of five or six meters at the farthest, of course, the heavier the stone, the closer it was thrown, and the lighter the stone, the farther it was thrown.
After the success of the experiment, Su San began to produce a large number of them, and she planned to make at least 100,000 such trebuchets.
In addition, she also thinks that fighting ants and charging ants fighting with their bare hands and biting their teeth alone are too primitive and backward, and they should be armed as well.
So she equipped each of them "each" with the necessary combat weapons - "spears" or "clubs".
The so-called "spears" or "clubs" are naturally made of small branches, and the spears need to be sharpened at one end, but the sticks are not.
Next, it is the question of how to use this basic weapon of ancient melee combat, and Su San simply taught them together, which is called "one buy one give", the best sales method.
To put it simply, it is actually the basic tactics of using spears and clubs, "pumping", "smashing", "picking", "stabbing" and "blocking".
Among them, "pumping" is a horizontal or oblique hit, "smashing" is a vertical hit from top to bottom, "picking" is a vertical hit from the bottom to the top, and "stabbing" is a sharp stab from near to far, all of which are offensive actions and are relatively easy to master.
