Chapter 108 The Battle in the Valley (Part 2)
The enemy Bee Strike Group Army wanted to execute a beheading operation against Suming, but instead of stealing a chicken, they ended up losing their rice. Suming's head was not cut off; instead, the three big birds and Suming gave the enemy a good dose of spiritual power harassment that was almost like jesting and bantering, leaving their forces in total disarray. There weren't actually many bee casualties, but their morale and spirits were thoroughly scattered. The remaining ones were like headless flies, flying aimlessly without purpose.
"It's best to pursue the retreating enemy with vigor. The battle had only achieved a partial victory, and the reactionaries are trash, they won't voluntarily crawl into the trash bin unless you sweep them into it. In the main battlefield of the forest, the Su Army Bees were still being suppressed. Without pausing, Suming immediately directed the three big birds to rush into the woods, assisting the Su Army in dealing with the remaining enemies and engaging in a second battle."
With the experience gained earlier, the battle went much more smoothly.
Although there were many enemy bees, they were not like the Su Army Bees, which were directed by Suming and resembled more a group of scattered soldiers. On the Su side, they already had their own bridgehead. The Su Army Bees trapped in the center were like a huge bait, attracting the enemy bees to surround and attack. A few big birds charged together, with spiritual power coming to the rescue from all around.
The trick to surrounding a point and rescuing is to have enough strength to defeat the reinforcements, but the enemy bees clearly didn't possess this strength. The reinforcements they attracted were not of the weak kind like in the Meng Lianggu Campaign with Li Tianxia and Huang Baitao's troops, but rather the heavenly soldiers and generals of the animal kingdom. The besieged Su Army Bees were no less than the American Mecha Ace Division. Despite the huge numerical difference between the two sides, their actual combat effectiveness was exactly the opposite.
As time passed, the enemy bees' living strength dwindled, with most of them dispersed, and they couldn't even maintain a numerical advantage over the Su Army anymore.
After fighting for over an hour, Suming suddenly realized that despite the vastness of the woods, there were no more adversaries left—the enemy bees had completely collapsed.
"It's so lonely..." Suming looked up at the sky, making a goose-like gesture, his eyes even squeezing out tears of loneliness born from being at the top.
Actually, it was because he had been carelessly bitten on the back of his neck, and it hurt.
"Stupid idiot..." came the parrot sisters' weak but mocking voices from within the forest. After a big battle, although the three birds weren't injured, they were exhausted! Of course they were, even slaughtering a hundred thousand pigs bound up without resistance would require half a day of exertion, let alone in combat.
Although he couldn't really impose any terrible punishment on the Queen Bee, she could still clearly sense Suming's anger through his spiritual power and shrank back into her hive in fright.
The Queen Bee had grown bigger since their last encounter and now resembled a small kitten, huddling pitifully in her nest, too scared to respond to Suming's words.
"Honey, running away is useless! Come clean, and for the sake of our past affection, I won't make things difficult for you!" Suming changed his strategy, beckoning the Queen Bee with a finger and saying with a flirty smile.
The Queen Bee wasn't stupid; the problem was that the spiritual connection was too direct, and facial expressions couldn't lie. She could still detect Suming's rage beneath his rogue-ish grin.
After repeatedly questioning her several times, the Queen Bee finally sent several weak strands of spiritual power, like a child who had done something wrong, somewhat hesitantly explaining to Suming the cause and process of the event.
To say she 'explained' it wasn't quite right; the Queen Bee didn't have the language skills for that, but through the direct exchange of spiritual power, Suming finally figured out what had happened!
This valley was flourishing, and before the Queen Bee led her troops here, there were already more than a dozen groups of indigenous bees thriving. Each group's numbers far exceeded that of the Queen Bee's.
As Suming knew, bees were not belligerent and the valley was big enough to accommodate even several times as many bees, so when the Queen Bee's troops settled here, the local indigenous bees didn't show any hostility. Of course, there was also no sort of communication between them. Both sides went about their own business and lived their own lives; initially, they got along just fine.
If anyone is to be blamed, it would be the Queen Bee for stirring up trouble and causing a big mess.
Strictly speaking, it wasn't entirely the Queen Bee's fault for causing trouble—in the end, it was Suming who had created the chaos.
