I Am the Swarm

In the following dozens of days, Luo Wen ran here and there, planning the location of new branch bases one by one along the periphery of the territory, and ordered all the ant queens in the territory to produce worker ants with all their strength.

After these dozens of days, the first queen ants have emerged from their pupae, and then they have to go to their assigned locations one after another.

Due to the fact that there are too many queen ants hatching this time, although the existing more than 300 queen ants are fully producing, the schedule of the largest production base-the mother nest is already full and cannot provide help.

The number of worker ants produced only by these queens is limited, and many queens still have a huge labor shortage in their own territories.

Therefore, before the Ant Queen set off, the standard configuration of soldiers who had been raised to two thousand was reduced back to one thousand.

There was nothing Rowan could do about it. Anyway, the territory had been cleaned up, and all the bugs that could threaten the base had been turned into military rations. These places are very safe, the Queen Ants will develop slowly first, and when the production capacity is vacated in the future, they will fill up the gap.

Dozens of days later, the order for the mother nest has also been handed over, and it has begun to produce worker ants and transport insects with all its strength. As the production capacity of the mother nest is gradually released, a steady stream of worker ants are transported to various bases by transport insects to supplement their labor.

The brood has always shared Rowan's genes, and its size has always been slightly larger than Rowan, and the underground secret room where it is stored has been expanded several times.

Its production capacity is directly proportional to its size. Compared with queen ants, a mother nest is equivalent to the production capacity of 200 queen ants.

And as the ant queens in the new base in the north arrived one after another, the border of the territory continued to push forward. A hundred days passed in a hurry, and the original four-kilometer buffer zone was occupied by swarms, and bases filled the area like nails, connecting them into one piece.

As the distance between the border line and the red ant nest gradually narrows, the patrol team of the swarm will inevitably meet the predator team of the ant nest.

Red ants are nomadic species, born to rob for a living. Although Rowan has developed animal husbandry, the construction and expansion of the pasture requires a large amount of land as a basis.

So the two sides will not shrink back when they meet, and the two troops did not have a pre-battle talk, they just verified each other's pheromones and confirmed that they are not their own, and the two torrents were mixed together.

In fact, Luo Wen had already noticed the meeting this time, otherwise the swarm patrol team alone would have only a few hundred troops, and it would be impossible to compete with the hunting team of tens of thousands of red ants.

Relying on the strong field of vision and mobility, when the hunting team was still ignorant, Luo Wen had already dispatched the 60,000 northern army that was already near Chen Bing. A pocket formation was arranged in front of the hunting team, waiting for their patronage.

There is no suspense in the battle, how can a mixed team of more than 10,000 workers and soldiers be against 60,000 elite soldiers. The result was indeed the same. The northern army only lost more than a hundred soldier ants to wipe out the hunting team.

Since then, fighting has become more frequent, and there are constant hunting teams operating near the border, because of various "accidents" they have entered the encirclement of the northern army.

Moreover, because Rowan has the superior force and is fully prepared, he wipes out his opponents every time. After the battle, he will also clean up the battlefield and confuse the pheromones on the battlefield. Therefore, Red Ant has been losing more than 30 teams one after another, and has not noticed anything wrong.

It's a pity that the hunting team of red ants in this direction has been exhausted, and it is too troublesome to set up traps in other directions and slowly consume them.

In the last red ant nest, because Luo Wen was relatively weak, he had the patience to play with them slowly.

But now he is no longer what he used to be, and the strength of the swarm is not as weak as it was then.

After this period of recuperation, the war potential of more than 1,500 queen ants was revealed at this time,

With an order from Luo Wen, except for the 300 or so queen ants who were too far away from the northern front line, the remaining 1,200 ants plus the mother nest began to attack with all their might.

Under such circumstances, in a short period of time, one million worker ants and 100,000 soldier ants gathered on the front line, plus more than 60,000 soldier ants and other auxiliary arms that were already here. An army of 1.2 million gathered here.

In terms of quantity alone, it has already surpassed the red ant nest, and it is not a problem to directly face it. With such strength, what tactics do you need? What else to consume slowly?

Looking at the dense swarm of insects, Luo Wen felt a little swollen, and his style gradually approached the one he hated at the beginning.

Millions of troops are marching forward. Although the bugs are small in size, they still have the feeling of covering the sky and the sun. If you are a patient with intensive phobia, you may not be able to appreciate this kind of scene.

All kinds of bugs encountered on the road have all been turned into military rations. Even the highly mobile grasshoppers are not enough for transport bugs. Not to mention the black beetle and the like, the "God of War" who was amazed by Rowan at the beginning, couldn't even make a bubble in front of an army of millions.

Even the red ant hunting team with a large number of members, in front of the army, is barely at the level of bubbling.

"Sure enough, this is the way the swarm should fight." Rowan sighed as he watched the invincible army pushing all the way.

It's a pity that no one watched him pretend.

Rowan saw the rebuilt "crater" from a distance, and immediately ordered the army to speed up and surround it.

At this time, the door of my house was suddenly surrounded by millions of troops. The red ants were a little scared and retreated to the vicinity of the "crater" to stand ready.

After a while, several teams rushed out from the entrance of the cave, and Rowan ordered the army to make way for these teams to leave.

Because he already knew the purpose of these teams, the communication method of pheromone was not good at this point, and the information he carried was all posted on his body. As long as the encryption method is cracked, anyone can see what the message says.

These teams went out to ask for help, and Rowan wished that they would call back all the hunting teams, which would save him a lot of time, otherwise he would have to pay those guys back later.

The red and black ants in the ant nest couldn't get out, and Luo Wen didn't know how to send a team to rush in. The cave was winding and winding, and the situation was complicated.

The most important thing is that the army cannot be deployed. He used the tactic of closing the door and beating the dog to kill many enemy troops.

After thinking for a while, he crossed the encirclement and stepped forward, digging his legs forward, stabilizing his body with eight legs, and skillfully pushed the crater to the ground, and the collapsed soil buried the hole.

This is the second time he has done it, and he is already a little familiar with it.

After filling the hole to death, he didn't believe that the ants inside wouldn't come out. Although their oxygen supply system made it difficult for them to be suffocated, being difficult didn't mean they couldn't be suffocated.

The soldiers who had just asked for reinforcements had already been released, and there was nothing to do at this time, so it happened to be around here to fight for reinforcements.
