Soon a new source of troops came up, and a new round of excavation operations began.

This time, the fighting ants did not go down, but also worked with the sapper ants, who were responsible for digging the soil, and the fighting ants were responsible for digging the soil under the castle, so the progress of the project was more than doubled.

In less than half an hour, the second layer of the Hun ant's tunnel network was excavated again, and thousands of Hun ants rushed up to fight hard.

But this time, the engineer ants and fighting ants combined had tens of thousands of soldiers, more than twice as many as the Hun ants.

Obviously, this time the Hun ants did not take advantage of anything, and they were quickly wiped out by the Red Ant Army, which had an absolute advantage in numbers.

Then add some new recruits to replace the soldiers who have died in battle, and then start a new round of digging operations and the subsequent hand-to-hand combat.

In this way, on this day, the Red Ant Army dug up the eight-story tunnel of the enemy castle and seized a lot of food from the tunnel, but also paid the price of 10,000 dead and 20,000 wounded.

Nine layers of tunnels were dug on the second day, eight layers of tunnels were dug up on the third day, and the last seven layers of tunnels were dug up on the fourth day.

At this point, all the tunnels (32 floors) were excavated, mountains of grain and grass were captured, and 20,000 enemy troops were captured, mainly non-combat ants - worker ants and nanny ants, and the enemy queen ant.

The victory in this battle greatly boosted the morale of the Red Ant Army, and also solved the food and grass for the Red Ant Army to spend the winter.

As the largest and strongest food town of the Hun Ant Federation, the news that the city-state was conquered by the Red Ant Army in a few days spread like a plague in the territory of the Hun Ant Federation.

The whole country is panicked, and there is no one who does not want to escape, and it is best to be able to flee abroad.

The next target of the Red Ant Army was Kyoto City of the Hun Ant Federation, which was both their first city-state and their second largest food town.

It was inhabited by more than 10 million inhabitants and more than 2 million defenders, and 21 defensive lines were constructed.

It stands to reason that this should be a "hard nut to crack".

However, since hearing that the "almost dead" town had fallen, the people's hearts were scattered and they had no intention of resisting.

Before the Red Ant Army's team and planes arrived, most of the residents and troops had already left, leaving only two or three million residents who didn't want to walk and couldn't walk, and hundreds of thousands of defenders who had similar ideas.

The offensive began.

First of all, according to the usual practice, "regardless of 3721", let the Scarab plane blow up first.

Oh plug! It's really painful.

You can fry it as much as you want, horizontally and vertically, lie down and sleep while frying, you can do it.

Anyway, the enemy forces had neither aircraft to confront nor anti-aircraft artillery to intercept.

It seems that as the Red Ant Army, the Air Force is definitely the most comfortable and safest type of troops.

The Scarab Plane carefully built twenty-one lines of defense against the Hun ants, ravaging and ravaging until they felt satisfied.

What is so satisfying?

It was only when the bombing made it almost impossible to see the "human" shadow on the enemy's position, that he was satisfied, and he was relieved to go back to sleep.

Then, naturally, the ground troops of the Red Ant Army, who had eaten and slept enough, went up to clean up the remnants of the enemy.

This battle was easier and more exhausting than the last battle in the city-state of "almost death", and it took less than a day to break through all twenty-one lines of the enemy's defenses, and without much effort, the enemy's Kyoto Castle was surrounded.

Next, just like last time, dig layer by layer to destroy the enemy.

However, after only one day of digging, and within six or seven floors of the enemy's castle, the enemy raised a white flag and surrendered in despair.

However, the king of the Huns and a group of ministers and officials at all levels have basically run out, and the mayor of this city-state has long since slipped on the soles of his feet.

The remaining acting mayor is actually a cleaner named "Erpi Egg" who cleaned the toilet for the original mayor, this kid saw that the situation was very bad, so he simply raised his hand and surrendered, very well-behaved, after all, living one more day is a day, who doesn't want to live?

Since the Red Ant Army has even captured the first two big city-states of the Hun Ants, the next thing is to take advantage of the victory to pursue it.

According to the spies, the main enemy force is fleeing to the border area bordering the Termite Federation.

So the commander of the Red Ant Army, Huai Yam, decided to send a large army to pursue the enemy in this direction.

Two days later, in the evening, the sun faded, a little westerly, dimmed, and fragmented by the twilight clouds.

The Red Ant Army followed the Hun ants' footsteps to a ravine near the border, and found the ground full of grain and grass discarded by the enemy, as well as valuable playthings such as jewels and jade.

The soldiers of the Red Ant Army were overjoyed when they saw it, they couldn't see the enemy here anyway, and they didn't need to fight, they just needed to take these treasures on the ground and bring them back, why not?

Almost every soldier is this idea, at this time do not take more when?

If you don't take it for nothing, you have to take it from everyone.

After a little hesitation, everyone rushed up to grab it, and even those who started late fought and fought with those who started quickly.

The scene suddenly became chaotic.

Suddenly, a fire broke out around the canyon, and the fire was accompanied by a large amount of smoke, which made it difficult for the red ants to breathe, and soon they staggered to death.

Half an hour later, the soldiers, surrounded by the fire, were all burned to death or choked to death in the gorge by the smoke.

At this point, the Red Ant Army, a large group of men and horses chasing the enemy army, was completely wiped out in this unfortunate canyon.

More than 100,000 officers and soldiers were lost, and Huai Yam's pursuit operation was declared bankrupt.

After more than 20 days of fighting, the Red Ant Army had already lost nearly one-third of its fresh force, and had to switch from strategic offensive to strategic defense in order to consolidate the existing gains.

However, Huai Yam's idea is too confident.

In fact, it was not the Hun ants that caused the defeat of the Red Ant Army, but the Termite Army.

Now the Termite Army has officially joined the war, and it is still an undeclared war, fighting across the border.
