I Am the Swarm

Chapter 76: Fight against the big head ant 2

Since just now, reinforcements from the big-headed ants have entered the battlefield continuously, trying to break through the encirclement and rescue the besieged friendly troops.

Therefore, the troop that the insect swarm had outflanked the front troop of the big-headed ant just now was facing the enemy from both sides, and the pressure was enormous.

But as the encirclement of the swarm gradually shrinks, a large number of idle troops are released. Under the command of Rowan, these troops quickly shifted their positions to support friendly forces facing the enemy on both sides of the rear of the encirclement.

With the continuous expansion of the team of the insect swarm to intercept the reinforcements of the big-headed ants, the situation that had just been precariously stabilized quickly.

Without the cover and shelter of the giant combat units, the spray effect of the formic acid solution of the swarm worker ants was maximized. The big-headed ant's vanguard unit that was surrounded in the middle was quickly defeated. In order to speed up, Rowan also put the transport bugs protecting the flanks into the battlefield.

The large-headed ant has surpassed the hidden troops in the ah, and as time passed, the reinforcements became more and more, and it soon reached the size of one million. The swarm troops that intercepted the reinforcements were severely depleted, and Rowan had to send some worker ants to provide a round of long-range saturation blows, temporarily repelling the big-headed ant reinforcements.

The insect swarm defense troops got a little breath, bit the wreckage beside them and started eating on the spot to replenish their strength.

The battle in the encirclement is coming to an end, and only tens of thousands of giant ants are still stubbornly resisting.

Unfortunately, these resistances were in vain.

Half an hour later, a large-headed ant was grabbed by several swarm worker ants, unable to move, and was then executed by giant worms. Its death represents the annihilation of the vanguard of the big-headed ants.

At this time, the insect swarm defense force had already re-engaged with the big-headed ant reinforcements, and the battle was tragic. The number of big-headed ants reinforcements has increased to 1.5 million, and there are still troops coming from the rear.

It is impossible to imagine how the big-headed ant can raise so many troops with just one ant nest.

You must know that although the total number of insect swarms has now reached 156 million, they are all scattered in nearly 278 bases. Although the number of bugs in the base is far from being fully loaded due to the rapid expansion of the insect swarm.

But even if the number of ants in a single red ant nest can reach millions, there are still more than half of the ants outside to form a hunting team to sweep around.

Just as Rowan was observing the enemy's situation, the reinforcements of the big-headed ants increased by more than 100,000, reaching more than 1.6 million. In addition to the 500,000 vanguard troops that have been wiped out, this has already exceeded 2 million. And looking at the "black belts" that meander behind their reinforcements, with no end in sight, this number is far from their limit.

Rowan originally planned to have a fight with the big-headed ant reinforcements after eating the vanguard, but now he is a little hesitant.

Destroy the 500,000 vanguard troops, although they have a numerical advantage, they also have long-range fire support. But because of the rush, there is basically no formation pulling, just rigid. Under such circumstances, the casualties of the swarm naturally increased greatly, and more than 60,000 troops were lost in the battle.

And most of them are soldier ants. You must know that the swarm brought a total of more than 500,000 soldier ants when they went out this time, and this time it was damaged by more than one tenth.

At the same time, the death and injury of the insect swarm troops on the interception front are still accelerating. In addition to leaving 300,000 worker ants to clean the battlefield, Rowan has already invested all the remaining troops. But as the support of the big-headed ants continued to arrive, the forces of the two sides were nearly equal.

Although the swarm still has an advantage with formic acid solution and stinging needles, once these methods are used up, everyone can only fight bayonet.

At that time, although the individual combat power of the insect swarm was slightly superior, there was no reinforcements. It's fine if we can get the final victory, but if we lose, it's going to be a little troublesome.

Because at that time, the millions of corpses damaged by both sides will become the spoils of the victor.

But looking at the reinforcements of the big-headed ants, the chances of the swarm winning the battle in one wave are a little slim, and they have to change their strategy quickly.

With a decision in his heart, Rowan immediately issued a new order.

The transport worms gradually retreated from the battlefield, and with the cooperation of the worker ants and slime worms, they quickly packed and transported the spoils.

Afterwards, there were still worker ants in stock on the front line, and all the accumulated formic acid solution was sprayed out at one time. The collective long-range strike of millions of worker ants is still very powerful. Huge amounts of acid rain formed a river of separation between the two fronts.

A large number of big-headed ants lost their tentacles and retreated in panic, disrupting their formation. There are also many big-headed ants that directly lost their ability to move during the blow and slowly turned into liquid.

Taking advantage of the chaotic formation of the big-headed ants, at the stalls where they did not dare to go forward, the swarm quickly dealt with the enemies that were still there, and then quickly retreated.

During the retreat, in order to save time and burden, the corpses piled up on the battlefield were all abandoned.

After retreating for a distance, the giant combat units left first~www.novelmt.com~ The small and medium combat units climbed up the transport bugs in an orderly manner. After loading, the transport worms, which had the advantage of long legs, quickly caught up with the super-giant troops that left first.

In place, more than a thousand spy bugs and several transport bugs were left behind, and they wanted to disrupt the information scattered when the swarm of swarms evacuated to prevent the big-headed ants from catching up.

After making a big circle, the swarm forces safely returned to the border territory.

Looking at the busy bugs, Rowan made a general inventory and found that the battle damage was as high as 150,000. This battle can be said to be the most serious battle since the birth of the insect swarm.

Except for the more than 60,000 troops that were lost during the previous encirclement and suppression of the 500,000-headed ants' vanguard troops, the rest were all lost in contact with the reinforcements of the giant ants. The most annoying thing is that all the corpses on that front were lost.

Among them, there are even eleven super giants and more than fifty giant soldier ants of the swarm.

Fortunately, when they encircled the vanguard of the big-headed ants, they contributed more than 70 super giants and more than 100 giants. However, because it was very inconvenient to carry them to retreat, Rowan buried them not far from the battlefield, and did a deceptive treatment around them. Hope they won't be found by the big-headed ants.

Although the swarm suffered serious losses, the big-headed ants were even worse. They lost at least 700,000 living strength in this battle.

What Rowan needs to do now is to not give them a chance to breathe, and continue to consume them before the big-headed ants can convert this harvest into troops.

However, even if it is more than the violent soldier Rowan, he is not afraid. Could it be that there are still 3,000 ant queens hidden in the big-headed ant nest?

The reason why he is so anxious is that in his heart, those spoils of war are his. Especially the super-giant corpses of the worm nest, he wants to take them back before the big-headed ants have digested them.
