It Should Last Us Awhile

The soldier ants were rushing at them was too quick. They only manage to place down two carcasses before the army of ants reached their location.

However, the ants did not know what taking turns meant. They tried to squeeze in at the same time and got themselves stuck in the narrow hole. Their heads became easy targets for the palace guards with their swords drawn.

The brains of these ants were turned into mush with several stabs and their carcasses became new additions to the barricade.

But it was not over.

"It's not over yet! Reinforce the barricade! Don't let them push their way through." Zorbek barked. 

The barricade was weak, while a whole army of ants lied on the other side pushing their way through. Without support, it was easy for the ants to crush the carcasses of their fallen brethren and break through the barricade with brute force.
