I Am the Swarm

Water flowed in continuously from the breach of the ant nest, and after two full minutes, the water waves in the hole rolled out with a lot of soil and red and black ants.

After the turbulent water flow at the entrance of the cave collided back and forth several times, the water level inside the cave remained at the same level as the outside, and the water surface gradually stabilized.

And on the surface of the water close to the entrance of the cave, there are a large number of red and black ants floating. Most of them were not drowned on the spot, but were still struggling desperately on the water surface.

Some lucky ones moved to the shore with difficulty stepping on the body of their companions next to them, and climbed ashore with great effort.

However, exhausted, they have to face the digging ants waiting on the shore.

The terrain inside the ant nest is complicated, after all, only a few can be swept out by the water waves, and most of them have already been buried underwater.

This time, the enemy's old nest was taken away, and tens of thousands of red and black ants were wiped out. Most importantly, all the food they had stored in their burrows was gone.

This made their already tense front-line supplies even worse.

After solving those lucky ones who wanted to climb ashore, the ants in the water gradually stopped struggling and floated quietly on the water.

Luo Wen ordered the digging ants to turn back to support the soldier ants and use up all the stored formic acid solution.

Although the fighting power of the digging ants is not as good as that of the soldier ants, there are too many of them, and the previously entangled battlefield is instantly overwhelmed.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the corpses of the enemy and friendly troops were treated with protein recovery. The army mounted on the back of the transport bug and quickly retreated towards the river.

It is best to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible to prevent the front-line army from returning to aid frantically.

Come to the river and meet the digging ants here.

After counting the 10,000 digging ants that dug through the last barrier, there were only more than 6,000 of them left, and nearly 4,000 of them were washed away by the current when the embankment burst.

In addition to the excavation of the last distance just now and the subsequent battle, more than 3,000 digging ants were lost.

Of the more than 5,000 soldier ants, only less than 3,000 remained, and nearly half of them died in battle.

Even two large combat units such as transport bugs were left behind.

More than 10,000 insects of various arms were lost in this battle, but the results were also very brilliant. After a little repair, Rowan ordered the whole army to return.

Along the river, bypassing the enemy patrols, the exhausted army couldn't help tossing again.

Fortunately, there was no surprise or danger along the way, and the army returned to the frontline command center smoothly. Of course, the bugs would not name these names. These names were all given by Rowan to increase the sense of ceremony. In fact, this is only the nearest sub-base station to the front line.

But now there is already a large army gathering here, not counting the digging ants that have just withdrawn, there are still about 150,000 ordinary worker ants here.

Due to the late start of production, the soldier ants have worked overtime, but the number is still small. Even with the more than 2,000 that were withdrawn just now, it is only enough for 30,000.

However, there are more than ten thousand ordinary soldier ants in the original version.

Counting transport bugs, the number of soldiers capable of fighting can reach more than 200,000, and even including digging ants, it is less than 250,000. Moreover, the digging ants have just used up the formic acid solution, and within a few days their combat effectiveness will be reduced by at least half.

And the opponent has at least 500,000 troops, more than double the strength of the swarm. Fortunately, black ants can account for 70% of them, and with Luo Wen's command, they should be able to fight.

Moreover, the opponent's lair was taken away, and there was a problem with supplies. Although the swarm was short of manpower in the rear, and most of its members were transferred to the front line, they were still able to barely maintain normal operations. As time went by, Rowan's chances of winning became greater and greater.

Therefore, the tactics of the swarm at this time is to stand still, delay time, and respond to all changes with the same.

But the coalition of red and black ants did not intend to give Rowan a chance to delay the time. The next day, the sky was just slightly bright, and the dense enemy army crossed the border and rushed towards the swarm camp.

However, even if the time was short, Luo Wen didn't panic at all, he was already ready for the decisive battle. It's just that the longer the time dragged on, the smaller the loss of the insect swarm.

He is also a person who has been bombarded by information. With his wisdom of crushing ants, he still has to make good arrangements for them.

The enemy's ability to find the swarm's station so easily is related to his induction.

Rather than a decisive battle in an area that cannot be controlled, it is better to prepare a stage in advance and let the two sides perform to their heart's content.

Relying on the advantage of the sight distance of the big-eyed scout bugs, every move of the enemy army is under Rowan's control. As soon as they set off, small groups of insect swarm troops kept appearing in front of them on the road, constantly retreating strategically, attracting them to the station step by step.

The stage has already been set up, and now it is time for the actors to enter.

The bug swarm squads used as bait have already returned one after another, retreating into the caves of the base one after another.

The coalition of red and black ants followed closely, and the densely packed ants seemed to dye the ground in two colors.

However, when they arrived, the surface of the swarm resident was already clean, without any living creatures, leaving only a dark funnel-shaped hole on the ground.

Facing the deep cave entrance like the eye of the abyss, the coalition forces did not hesitate at all. The red ants were small in size, flexible and fierce, and took the lead in charging and burrowing into the cave.

After entering the cave, the first thing they have to face is a long passage, and after climbing through this passage, they will enter a huge cave.

Here, they were hit head-on.

Dozens of giant ants were scattered around the entrance of the passage, and the red ants were caught and thrown behind them as soon as they exposed their heads, and the densely packed soldier ants behind them would swarm up and finish the red ant.

It is impossible to solve the 500,000 army with this blocking method alone, but it can effectively delay the time.

In this way, a group of giant ants exhausted and retreated to the rear to rest, and the next batch of giant ants will immediately fill the vacancy.

The red ants in the front were dragged out and killed continuously, while the enemy troops in the rear did not know the situation and continued to advance.

Sometimes they will rush out at the same time or be squeezed out of the passage by the friendly troops behind. There are a lot of them, and they even break through the defense line of the giant ants. What a splash.

Although the passage is relatively spacious, it is still too narrow for hundreds of thousands of troops. After all, only a small number of people could enter the passage. After delivering more than 10,000 insect heads in half a day, the army waiting in line behind to enter the cave finally got a little impatient.

Some small teams began to leave the large army and disperse around, wanting to hunt some wild food.

But their whereabouts have long been seen by the scouting bugs. When they are far away from the main force, what awaits them is the swarm mobile unit that has already sharpened their knives.
