Summoning Total War

Following the powerlessness of the robbers of other races in the southern plains, hobgoblins and kobolds flooded into the plain. At the same time, the remnants of the forces that had shattered and retreated to the mountains and forests in the Jackal War became active. Although the number of wolves who hid in the deep mountains and old forests after the defeat was not large, they were no longer able to pose a substantial threat to mankind.

But as these remnants of gnolls joined the hobgoblin bandit groups entrenched everywhere, the progress of the noble council's clearance and suppression was even slower.

even!

After August 1st, Murphy also received through the Mercenary Union 66 the news that kobold robbers had appeared in the league of the Principality of Athens! In addition to the northern towns of the League of the Principality of Athens, there were more than a dozen bandit groups with more than 1,000 people. These bandits are composed of other races such as kobolds, hobgoblins, jackals, wild boars, etc. They frequently attack nearby villages to looting supplies, and even actively attack some small towns.

This is not the worst!

To make matters worse, Murphy sent him a message from some secret channel from within the noble council.

——What terrible thing has appeared in the southern wilderness!

--------------------------------------------

August 15th, 376 years of the Second Age.

If it was placed in the middle-earth of the previous life, then today should be the night of the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

But in this world, this is just a very ordinary day. It is said that the high elves will worship the moon **** Elune on this day, but humans do not have such a tradition. In the traditional culture of mankind, there are only two ancestors' sacrifice days, one is April 5th, which is not far from the Qingming Festival in the previous life. The other is July 15, which is the same day as the Ghost Festival in the previous life.

The moon on this day is very round.

Since the war against the Orcs in June this year, Athens has suffered a great loss, and thousands of casualties have severely damaged the citizens of Athens. Fortunately, after the victory of the war, the fame of both Athens and Murphy spread throughout the human world. So after the war, the strength of Athens recovered quickly, and after the Principality League was signed and unified with Lady Elizabeth's territory, the strength of Athens recovered even more quickly. After more than two months of self-cultivation and rest, Athens is not only a flourishing business. Similarly, in terms of the number of citizens, the official citizens of Athens recognized by the auxiliary system of Total War have once again broken the limit of 10,000 people. According to this progress, it is expected that around October this year, the city of Athens will be upgraded again!

Upgrade from an ordinary city to a big city!

At that time, not only could the city of Athens be upgraded from an urban barracks to a legion barracks, but after upgrading to a racetrack, it was possible to recruit the powerful units of the Seleucid faction-iron cavalry!

This is not an army like the Macedonian cavalry with the title of heavy cavalry, but it is just a few pieces of iron than the light cavalry.

This is a heavy cavalry unit in the true sense!

Not only was the whole body armored, even the horses that were sitting down were covered with small pieces of iron armor connected in series! You can say it unceremoniously! The armored cavalry was the only heavy cavalry unit in "Total War" before the Middle Ages that could directly attack the infantry regiment! Once the armored cavalry unit can form an organization of more than 1,000 people, then there will be a torrent of steel on the battlefield. The power is amazing and unstoppable. The sound of horseshoes makes the earth tremble!

Not to mention the army of jackals and half orcs, even the regular troops of the orc empire might be difficult to resist.

In the era of cold weapons, the formation of large-scale heavy cavalry forces is absolutely amazing! Just the momentum that made the earth tremble made many people lose the courage to resist! On the frontal battlefield, heavy cavalry will always be a banner of the cold weapon era!

New crops have been planted, and these crops such as corn and vegetables will mature in three months, as in November.

After they are harvested, the agricultural experts in the University of Athens will arrange for the leaders to plant new winter wheat. This is the crop reform after Athens was upgraded to a city. Alternative farming of other crops also saves the fertility of the land and prevents the land from becoming deserted. The small island in the Nedoria River has been formally mined, and now there is a lot of natural phosphate fertilizer that can be supplied. The creation of gods in Athens in the next few years is completely foreseeable.

With grain in hand, don't panic in my heart.

Even if the food produced during this year's big harvest is deducted from the support given to the Centaur tribe, the remaining food is enough for the entire territory to eat for more than two years to create gods. At present, not only the citizens in Athens have a lot of surplus, but even the aborigines who were Murphy serfs can eat a piece of white bread a day. This is something they never even dared to think about. Moreover, if they work hard, they can even get a little dried fish every Sunday.

That's meat!

Under the former lords, they might only eat so little during the holidays!

But it is only possible.

But now?

As long as they work hard, they can eat a little meat every week. Although it is not a lot, it is enough to maintain the nutrition that the children need for growth. These lowly aboriginal serfs do not have most ambitions. They just want to fill their stomachs, and then let the children eat better and wear more. They would rather eat less, and don’t want to see the children’s hungry faces...

Not starving or freezing, this is their happiness.

It's simple and satisfying.

As a modern person, Murphy can't talk about benevolence, but he has his own guidelines. For him, it should be the duty of every lord to let everyone who works hard to eat. He couldn't do like other aboriginal nobles, in order to facilitate his own rule, he kept the serfs under the condition of starving but starving. Even Mrs. Elizabeth once looked at him with a little surprise. She said that it is hard to imagine that you, who were strong and iron in the war, would treat your citizens so kindly.

This is not kindness!

Murphy always thought that he was not a kind person.

It's just that he can't do it so cruelly, he feels that he has an obligation to feed his fellow citizens.

This is the duty of a lord! It is also the obligation of a king in the future!

Perhaps all of this is just what Murphy subconsciously thinks that everything is the fastest]. But the serfs who were sent to Murphy did not think so. They are undoubtedly grateful for everything that is good today. They call their lord the noble, benevolent, generous, great, and wise Governor Murphy! Although their poor knowledge does not know what the Governor-General represents, but they are very stubborn that this is a title even more noble than the Lord, and only truly great people can obtain it!

………………

The chaos in the southern plains did not cause Murphy much substantial trouble.

While all the places are in sorrow, everything in Athens is in a steady and flying exhibition. With the intelligence network of the mercenary union, Murphy's information database was quickly filled up. The newly established [Jianye] organization will collect useful information for him in all aspects, and pay attention to the talents in various places. A part of the brave and disciplined aboriginal mercenaries were absorbed by Athens. They will be incorporated into the outskirts of the army, and will be led by aboriginal fighters who survived the Orcs War. These mercenaries will be formally absorbed after receiving the cruel training of the priests of the war temple. At that time, they will all be a group of powerful fighters!

At the same time, with the help of the gradually solidified mercenary union, people from all over the country who had a good skill but had no room for display were attracted to Athens.

Because everyone foresaw that this city will be a bright jewel among mankind in the future!

But now, this jewel has just begun to show its brilliance. Its construction requires a lot of talents, and this also means that there are a lot of opportunities there. Many aboriginal people who are depressed and desperate have rushed to Athens, hoping to get the opportunity to display their skills there. Moreover, Athens is undoubtedly a very safe place now when there are goblin kobold robbers everywhere.

All the goblin kobold jackal robbers that entered its range were cleaned up by the mighty Spartans within a few days.

After the arrival, the goblins and kobolds also learned to behave, and they were no longer within the scope of Athens. They avoided the area where Athens belonged, moved around the surrounding area, looted some passing caravans, and occasionally attacked the wealthier villages ruled by the surrounding nobles. In fact, omnivorous creatures like goblins and kobolds will not starve to death by gnawing trees and eating grass even if they have no food. The vitality of these creatures is very tenacious, especially creatures like kobolds ~ www.readwn.com ~ can be seen in almost every corner of the big six.

September 1.

A team of senior adventurers sent by the Council of Nobles to investigate the southern wilderness brought back a very bad news.

In the wilderness connected with the plains, I don't know when one after another big holes appeared. These voids are not bottomless, as if they have reached the depths of the earth. And some other types of intelligent creatures that have not been seen for nearly a thousand years and are suspected of being extinct are now emerging one after another from the cavities connected to the ground. The goblins and kobolds who originally lived in the wilderness were expelled by them to the southern plains.

These remnants of the last era have returned to the surface after the start of the second elemental tide!
