The ant colony that climbed the city wall was met with the most resolute resistance from the archers and repeater crossbowmen.

Ordinary arrows can only effectively shoot the ghost pattern worker ants, but not enough to shoot the ghost pattern soldier ants, so as long as there are larger ghost pattern soldier ants in the ant colony, the city guard's continuous archer crossbow will be ineffective.

At this time, it is necessary to snipe the ghost soldiers in the ant colony with the bed crossbow as soon as possible, and the archers cover it with a rain of arrows in order to completely cut off the attack of the ant colony.

Apparently, the new queen in the distance gave a clear command to attack.

The colony is mixed with a large number of soldier ants, ready to break through the northern wall in one fell swoop, and only then can the colony continue to move south.

The new queen's order was obviously very resolute, and even hundreds of large male ant guards moved from a distance, and the new ant queen slowly fell into the ant colony, carefully approaching the north city wall surrounded by the guards.

Since the sky is the territory of the birds, although most of the time these birds will hardly fly over the Thorny Mountains, if they fly too high in the canyons of the Thorny Mountains, they are still in danger of being hunted.

It didn't dare to fly too high, and it didn't even dare to levitate its body within the range of the bed crossbow when it approached the northern wall.

Because it knew that in that case, the bed crossbow on the wall would definitely shoot it first.

Seeing the soldier ants rushing to the north wall, the new ant queen resolutely decided to mobilize all the ant colonies in the canyon and attack the north wall at all costs.

And there are nearly two hundred giant ghost-patterned males gathered in its personal guard group, and these powerful combat forces also have to rush up together, in order to be able to absolutely control these ghost-patterned males, it has to venture into the range of the bed crossbow.

It didn't dare to fly at all, it only dared to float its body at the lowest altitude and slowly flap its wings and approach forward.

Surdak saw this scene in hand-to-hand combat and glanced at Andrew on the other side.

This is the moment to wait!

Ten of the bed crossbows were fired intensively, emptying all the giant crossbow arrows in the arrow trough, and the city guards cut the ropes on the gantry that hung the tail of the bed crossbows, and the thirty-five bed crossbows returned to their normal positions.

The rolling stones, which were connected by ropes, were simultaneously pushed down the wall, emptying all the ant colonies that were climbing on the wall.

The city guards lifted the precious magical giant crossbow arrows from the top of the shelves and installed them in the arrow slots of the bed crossbows.

At this moment, the phalanx of the male ant guard group had approached six hundred meters away from the city wall, and the queen ant was hiding among the ant colony, blocked by the male ant in front of him with his body.

The ghost-patterned soldier ants on the head of the city were like taking stimulants, even if they were cut off by laziness, those soldier ants fought to the death with the heavy infantry on the city wall with their last breath.

The ant colony under the city wall surged up again, and not far away was the phalanx of the male ant guards.

Under the pressure of the army, the guards in the city finally saw the pro-guard army composed of ghost pattern male ants, if the size of the giant soldier ant is compared to a rhinoceros, then these ghost pattern male ants are war elephants, each ghost pattern male ant is almost five or six meters long, they not only have a pair of huge tentacles on their heads, but also have sharp bone sickles on the joints of each outrigger, and the body is also covered with gorgeous bone spurs, and pieces of armor are covered with black hard carapaces, and they are actually double armor.

These ghost-patterned males are like giant siege weapons, and in the process of approaching the north city wall, they bring huge psychological pressure to the city defenders.

The herald on the arrow tower gestured to Surdak, who held the blood-red crescent in his hand high.

The herald immediately issued a series of banners to the catapult camp inside the city walls.

The warriors guarding the ten catapults immediately stopped installing the flints, took out a large wooden box from the warehouse, took out the round black iron balls inside, and carefully put them into the baskets, and as the operator lit the fuses of the black iron balls with torches, the ten catapults threw the black iron balls lit in the baskets outside the north city wall almost simultaneously.

The new queen ant saw a black stone ball thrown from inside the north city wall, and thought it was still the same as before, the kind of flint that would roll and explode when smashed on the ground.

It keeps the four strongest ghost-striped males around its body, and even if a flint falls, it will never hit itself.

The black iron ball fell into the male ant's guard, only smashing the thick armor piece on the back of the ghost-patterned male, and the hard carapace inside was not damaged in the slightest.

It was in the center of the Guards camp, ready to continue its approach to the northern wall.

At this moment, a violent explosion sounded next to him, a huge impact accompanied by a deafening explosion, and at the same time as the fire burst out, a huge ghost-patterned male ant was blown up and his entire body was broken into three pieces.

The explosion also affected the other ghost-patterned males, and the other two ghost-patterned males were completely shattered by the explosion on one side of the three legs.

Violent explosions rang out one after another, and the burly ghost-patterned male ant had nowhere to hide, and there was chaos in the male ant's personal guard group.

It was also during this explosion that the new queen was stabbed with a severed limb by a male ant, so that it could not keep its balance when flying low.

It was frightened by the bursting flames, and the ghostly males of the Guardian crawled out of their severed limbs, almost all of them blocking their bodies around the new queen.

In the thick fog of gunsmoke, the specific location of the new queen ant could not be found at all.

The new queen was worried about another explosion, and it was already scared.

The new queen dragged its slightly chubby body and flapped its wings desperately to escape to the middle of the canyon.

At the moment when it flew out of the protective wall of the male ant guards, the ten bed crossbows that had been waiting on the north wall adjusted their angles almost simultaneously, and then ten giant crossbow arrows shot towards the new ant queen at the same time, in no particular order.

Several giant crossbow arrows spilled through the new queen's fat body, bursting with a touch of light brown juice, and the queen's wings, which looked like a big fly, shattered, and fell headlong into the battlefield surrounded by gunsmoke.

The moment the new queen's arrow fell, several ghost-patterned males of the pro-guard regiment rushed up, they twisted their clumsy bodies, first surrounded the queen, and protected the queen, and two ghost-patterned males forked the seriously injured queens with tentacles, preparing to quickly leave the battlefield area in front of the north city wall.

Their movements were quite fast, but the explosion frightened the ghostly worker ants around them, and they couldn't feel the message from the new queen, and immediately became a mess.

Countless ghost-patterned worker ants gathered towards the explosion area like death squads, and for a while, they actually blocked all the retreat routes of the ghost-patterned male ants.

The two ghost-patterned male ants could only rely on the brute force of their bodies to use their bodies to open a way, constantly moving towards the middle of the Dodan Canyon, but because of countless ghost-patterned worker ants blocking the way, their retreat speed was not too fast.

And the most important thing is that the speed of the catapult in the city wall is not too slow, and the whole process is in place, loading, ignition, and firing in four steps.

A new wave of black bombs was dropped, and ten black bombs were detonated one by one outside the city.

The corpse of the ghost red ant exploded continuously, and the male ant guard group suffered a heavy blow again, this time the queen ant was even less lucky, the bomb detonated directly above its head, not only blowing the new queen to pieces, but even the two ghost male ants who fled with the new ant queen were blown to different places, and the two layers of armor did not save its life.

The moment the new queen ant was blown up on the battlefield, the ghost-patterned red ants in the entire canyon became sluggish, and they felt that the king was dead......

The ghostly red ants in the canyon have once again become a plate of loose sand, and without the queen's orders, they are no longer so active in besieging the city.

The ant colonies below the city walls began to scatter into the canyon, and countless red ants fled in a big way.

……

Surdak didn't expect that the gunpowder prepared last year to blow up the river would come in handy this time on the northern wall of Dodan Town.

Twenty bombs were detonated at once, completely overturning the Ghost Pattern Soldier Ant's personal guard group.

As the iron fence was opened by the city guards with a noose, Aung San led a group of aborigines to rush into the gate hole in the north city wall with the stench, dragged away the corpses of the ghost-patterned red ants in the passage, and quickly opened the road to the North Canyon.

The cave of the city gate was still filled with the pungent smell of foul smell and sour liquid, and a team of cavalry rushed to the outside of the northern city, not to chase and kill the thousands of ghost-patterned red ants in the canyon, but to collect as much loot on the battlefield as possible in a limited time, such as the remains of those ghost-patterned male ants that were blown up.

Of course, the most important trophy is the new queen ant with a magical giant crossbow bolt.

Thirty-five bed crossbows at the head of the city began to attack the ant colony gathered under the city walls, and as long as they were within effective range, these crossbowmen began to shoot and hunt those ghostly soldiers, and they were not worried that the giant crossbow arrows fired would not be recovered.

Opening the gate of the northern city wall, a group of cavalry and a group of heavy infantry quickly formed a formation outside the city, and then quickly pressed towards the ant colony in the canyon.

The heavy infantry immediately collected giant crossbow arrows, ordinary arrows, and some huge rolling stones on the battlefield, followed by the ghost-patterned soldiers and ants who died under the city, as long as they had a little value, almost all of them were thrown into the carriage.

Now it's a race against time to grab all the wealth.

After the new ant queen was shot, the male ant guard group was also destroyed in an instant, and those male ants like giant chariots, as long as they were not killed by gunpowder, actually turned around and walked towards the northern part of the Dodan Canyon.

In addition to the huge crater left by the explosion, there are only some corpses of ghost-patterned male ants left on the battlefield, and some male ants have been seriously injured by the explosion and can only wait for death on the battlefield.

The cavalry quickly rushed into the area, facing the ghost-patterned males who were not yet dead, and they were not even qualified to mend their swords.

As soon as they find a live ghost-patterned male, the cavalry will greet the other side of the city wall, mobilize a bed crossbow to pierce a few holes in their bodies, and they will be completely honest.

Surdak went out of the city in person this time, and finally found the mutilated body of the new ant queen on the edge of the battlefield.

When the mercenaries in the town saw the city gate open, they also began to organize people to prepare to enter the canyon to hunt the ghost-patterned red ants.

For a while, the cavalry of the garrison camp drove those ghostly red ants to the middle of the canyon a few kilometers away, but the cavalry did not dare to pursue too deeply, and only dared to swim around the range of the crossbow on the bed of the north city wall.

Aung San led a team of aborigines through the city gate and under the city walls.

Armed with various tools, these aborigines began to seriously clean the oil tank under the city wall to make some adequate preparations for the next ant tide attack on the city.

In fact, in addition to cleaning the oil tank, Aung San also had to check the lower part of the wall for structural damage, and some of the completely broken cornerstones had to be pried out and a new one put in, but this kind of work can only be done by skilled bricklayers.

"This commander is actually a ruthless man! Actually killed the queen ant......" The old bricklayer squatted under the city wall, commanding two apprentices to carry a strip of cornerstone and embed it in the gap.

The young bricklayer also said with great envy: "I heard that those boys in the city defense guard have made a fortune, and I knew that the beast tide was so profitable, so I joined the city defense guard team!" ”

"It's not too late to go if you want to go now!" Said the companion.

The young bricklayer snorted before saying, "Forget it, if you join now, you can only enter the reserve." ”
