I Am the Swarm

In the following two days, troops from the rear continued to be transported over, replenishing the number of bug swarms to more than 2.2 million.

At the same time, the acid liquid of worker ants and the poison sac of soldier ants have also been replenished.

As a result, the army of the swarm set off again in mighty strength.

Although only two days have passed, the big-headed ants have resumed an orderly collection life, and Luo Wen discovered a green "leaf stream" again.

While lamenting the big-headed ant's heart, he was not polite and stopped the stream again.

However, this time the big-headed ants had gained experience, and they went all out when they came up, gathering millions of vanguard troops, coming from the direction of the ant nest aggressively.

There are twice as many vanguard troops as compared to last time. It is undoubtedly a dream for Rowan to eat this army in a short time. If the bug swarm comes into contact with this army, once they are entangled, they may be surrounded by the continuous follow-up troops of big-headed ants.

At that time, this army of bug swarms might be buried here and become food for the development of the big-headed ants.

Naturally, Rowan would not do such a thing as an enemy, he had considered the current situation before coming here.

Therefore, the large combat units evacuated first, and the soldier ants chased the "green leaf creek" all the way. The worker ants who carried the leaves were kept last time because they needed some bait to encircle and fight for aid.

Now that the tactics have changed, these guys are naturally no longer needed. Based on the principle that what can be consumed is a little, naturally they will not be kept.

The soldiers who assigned the task left the team in an orderly manner, and only the transport ants and the worker ants on their backs were left in place. They are the protagonists of today. We want to show the big-headed ants in this different world what is called mobile warfare and what is called "ranger".

As the big-headed ants gradually approached, the transport bugs began to run.

Relying on their long legs, they are fast and have good eyesight. They always keep a distance of about 20 centimeters from the big-headed ants. This distance seems to be very short, but it is actually quite safe.

As I said before, creatures like ants are basically blind, and they communicate and argue purely by touching their tentacles. Once out of the reach of their tentacles, they can only sense living things by vibrating.

But in today's environment, millions of troops are moving collectively, and sensing vibrations has no effect at all. As long as you hide out of the reach of their tentacles, you can avoid being detected by them.

And the transport bugs run in this range.

A distance of 20 centimeters is already the coverage of the worker ants spraying formic acid. Relying on the advantage of the height on the transport insects' backs, they can even spray the formic acid solution one meter away.

Because this plan was foreseen in advance, Rowan dispatched more transport bugs to the front line before this operation. In the past, each transport worm usually had to carry 500 worker ants, but then they would huddle together, entangle with each other, and build an ant mountain.

Due to the large number, the worker ants in the bottom layer of the ant hill are under enormous pressure. When the transport insects are moving rapidly, the ant hill basically dare not move, in case the worker ants at the bottom do not grasp the transport insects firmly and cause the whole body to roll down.

Now that the number of transport insects has increased, each transport insect only needs to carry more than 200 worker ants. Although it is still very crowded, the pressure on the worker ants at the bottom has been greatly reduced, and some structural adjustments can be made on the upper layer of the ant hill.

In this way, the twenty or thirty worker ants on the top layer of the ant hill assumed a standard formic acid spraying posture, and their bodies were fixed by their companions under their feet.

Lines of water were shot into the army formation of the big-headed ants. After emptying the formic acid solution in the storage bag, they automatically moved to the lower part of the ant hill, and replaced other companions to the top.

Then, another round of waterline shot.

The disaster of the big-headed ants has begun. The cooperation between the transport insects and the worker ants is like a fast-moving self-propelled artillery. Acid drops from the sky, there is no need to aim at all, as long as the general direction is right.

This is a total of 1.5 million soldier ants. They poured out all the stored acid within ten minutes, and the damage caused can be imagined.

All the outer edges of the big-headed ant's vanguard were attacked. Although the direct fatality rate was very low, most of them were only injured.

But in the world of bugs, there is no such thing as healing the wounded.

If only the carapace is corroded, there may still be a possibility of survival, but if the tentacles are corroded, and the arms and legs are missing, they will basically be recycled into protein after the war.

After the launch, the transport bug quickly evacuated the battlefield according to the established route. There are naturally spy ants waiting for a long time on the road to clean up the traces of their passing.

Although Luo Wen couldn't personally participate in this kind of fight and run, as the maker of the plan, it was quite exciting to watch.

This round of long-range firepower has caused at least more than 300,000 deaths and injuries to the big-headed ants. There were also two unlucky transport bugs overturned on the side of the bug swarm. When they passed Chaoju, they didn't grasp the distance well, and they were entangled and died. Even the worker ants on their backs went with them. From this, we can see how important a reliable driver is when fighting.

Looking back at the chaotic formation of big-headed ants, Luo Wen didn't stay any longer. After merging with the main force, they dug out the super-giant corpse of the big-headed ant that had been buried last time.

The worker ants cooperate with their super giants to cut them, pack them and load them on the truck. There were a lot of bugs transported this time, and it happened to bring all these spoils back. To avoid always being buried in the enemy's territory, there will be long nights and dreams.

At this time, the troops that were sent to clear up the opponent's leaf worker ants also returned to the temporary station. Rowan didn't expect this round of battle to go so fast. When retreating, he sent a team of messengers to call these guys back. In order to prevent them from being blocked by big-headed ants as soon as they climbed the tree, they lost their lives in vain.

The troops repaired briefly, and returned to the swarm territory in a large circle.

Two days later, the troops that replenished their ammunition set off again. In order to go into battle lightly, this time they didn't even bring giant combat units with them, only a small group of small and medium-sized soldier ants followed by transport bugs.

The battle of two days ago was repeated again. After several rounds of long-range attacks, the big-headed ant army finally regained its strength, only to find that the opponent had already slipped away and disappeared.

Then, the bi-day harassment became a routine for the swarm. In the following half a month, the bug swarm troops dispatched eight times, and then the big-headed ant troops learned a lot, but these operations still caused about a million deaths and injuries to them.

Counting the previous battles, the big-headed ants had already lost about two million effective strength. Although the insect swarm also lost more than a dozen transport insects and the worker ants on it, they were replenished continuously with the troops from the rear.

At this time, the number of troops gathered in this stronghold was close to three million.
