On April 21, 2018, after returning to the game, Ningyuan began to plan the next development direction of the territory.

Originally, Ning Yuan planned to steadily and expand outward step by step, but after experiencing Ouyang Yichen's stimulation, Ning Yuan found that although steadily and stably is the best development model, all of this was based on the absence of strong enemies invasion.

If a strong enemy invades, then this steady development model will fall into a state of full passiveness.

The foundation of the Condor Heroes is relatively weak. Once the production of the territory falls into a state of complete stagnation, all Ning Yuan’s previous efforts will be wasted. At that time, the Condor Heroes he has worked hard to build will have a significant regression.

Although Ning Yuan guessed that the God King Palace and the Sun and Moon God Sect would not attack him, you should know that the enemies he had to face were not only these two guilds. In this world, there were countless player lords who were jealous of his territory.

Although for various reasons, no player coalition has attacked the Condor Plane until now, no one can guarantee that no player coalition will invade the Condor Plane in the future.

Moreover, with Ning Yuan's ambition, he will definitely continue to go out to rob in the future. When the number of resources and natural wonders in his territory further increases, there will definitely be player lords who cannot withstand the temptation to attack him.

So in order not to be caught off guard by the enemy, Ning Yuan must not have the same kind of luck as before, because he can't afford the price.

Although barbarism and civilization are considered a farming game of business and construction, war is the main theme of this game.

Without sufficient strength, no matter how good you can build your territory, it will be meaningless, because the enemy only needs to launch an invasion war and will ruthlessly take all this away from your hands.

For war, the most important thing is the army. Therefore, if Ning Yuan wants to be prepared for any trouble, he must have a large number of troops and then train this army to become elite. Only in this way can his territory have the capital to protect himself.

The Condor Hero now has more than 25,000 human soldiers, more than 17,000 elves, more than 15,000 dwarf soldiers, and more than 27,000 various beast soldiers, with a total force of more than 84,000.

After removing the fox, swan and rat men, the Condor Heroes, the Condor Heroes have nearly 70,000 troops to fight.

At this stage, the 70,000 army is already a bit scary. After all, when the God King Palace and the Sun and Moon God Cult compete for the Colorful Harvest Mountain, their coalition troops were only more than 100,000.

Although there are many 70,000 troops, Ningyuan now has five cities to defend, so if he wants to go out to invade, the number of troops he can actually mobilize is still very limited.

As the main city of the Condor Heroes, all Ningyuan's family assets are here, so the Condor Heroes City must stay at least 20,000 permanent troops.

As the outermost cities, the chances of these two cities facing invaders are much higher than those of the other three cities, so each city must have at least eight thousand permanent troops.

As hub cities, Nanmu City and Eagle Horse City have to shoulder the responsibility of supporting other cities, so each city must have at least 5,000 standing troops.

The standing army of the five cities alone requires 46,000 people, and the number of troops that Ningyuan can be deployed at will is only 24,000.

Although 24,000 people seem to be quite a lot, if the Wei State can summon reinforcements, then the number of troops will be really not enough to see these 20,000 people.

Now the player lords in the Bronze Age have learned to rape. In order to avoid the use of a declaration of war token by a strong enemy, few people have used a war-free token.

Anyway, the enemy doesn't know if they have a help token in their hands. If they want to get the truth, they must invade and observe it in person.

Single-player invasion is very dangerous in the Bronze Age. If you are not careful, you may never go home again. Therefore, when facing those planes without fighting tokens, the player lords rarely invade themselves. They all form gangs to form an invading coalition.

In this way, even if the invasion fails in the end, they will have a high probability of escaping.

Due to the above reasons, although no player takes the initiative to invade Ningyuan, Ningyuan cannot find any suitable planes for invasion. It is difficult for him to encounter ready-made cheap things like David Louis.

And the most important thing is that as the strength of the Condor Heroes continued to increase, Ningyuan's territory would soon enter the feudal era.

The condition for entering the feudal era from the Bronze Age was to have five cities, the total population of the tribe reached 200,000, and the number of soldiers exceeded 20,000.

Ningyuan's Condor Corps now has more than 185,000 civilians of all races. In addition to the number of troops, the total population has reached 270,000, which is fully in line with the population conditions for entering the feudal era.

As long as the other four cities are fully built, he will immediately enter the feudal era.

Once the Condor Heroes enters the feudal era, it will probably be even more difficult for Ningyuan to find a target, because after entering the feudal era, the rules of plane warfare will continue to change.

The war in the feudal era was called the War of Empires, with a war period of one year. The invaders could choose to retreat the entire army on the thirty day, otherwise they would have to wait until the end of the war for a year before destroying the defending state.

In the feudal era, the retreat node was on the 30th day and the war period was one year.

There is nothing scary in a year. After all, if there is no deep hatred between the two sides, it is impossible to fight for a year, but the retreat node will be a bit deadly if it is extended to the 30th day.

The thirty-day game time is converted into three days, so you don’t have to wait until the thirty day. The invader’s plane will probably be invaded by other player lords on the eleventh day.

After all, the Wei State side has no obligation to keep secrets for the invading party, and they may even want others to hurry up to the invading party's plane, so that they can slowly fight a war of attrition with the invading party.

However, it seems that in the feudal era, the chance of plane wars occurring was much smaller than in the Bronze Age.

As Ning Yuan knows, it seems that there has not been a war between the player lords who have entered the feudal era.

They are all working hard to develop their own planes now and have no time to make any other people's ideas.

Just as all the player lords who entered the feudal era formed a tacit understanding, everyone was busy developing, and no one came out to provoke trouble at all, so players jokingly called the feudal era the era of peace.

Now, there are two roads in front of Ningyuan.

One is to deliberately stop building a city, let yourself continue to stay in the Bronze Age, and then continuously expand the scale of the Divine Eagle's army, constantly invade other planes, and plunder population and resources.

One is to accelerate the entry into the feudal era, and then use the peaceful characteristics of the feudal era to allow the condor leader to enter a stage of peaceful development.

If he chooses to continue to stay in the Bronze Age, although Ning Yuan can continue to plunder population resources, because there is no fifth city, he can only continue to expand the other four cities.

When the population of the territory reaches saturation, he can only continue to expand outward. The final result is that he has four huge cities and countless villages and towns scattered everywhere.

At this time, once the war burns to the Condor Plane, Ning Yuan may lose more than half of the population and a large amount of resources in his territory overnight, because he cannot move everyone to four cities in a short time, and the four cities cannot accommodate so many people.

At that time, the enemy will not have to attack the city at all. They just need to turn outside the city to obtain a large amount of population and resources. Ning Yuan’s previous efforts would be equivalent to helping others work for free.

If you want to protect the fruits of your labor, you must constantly build cities, because only a strong city can resist the enemy's attack. So it is not a good idea to force yourself to stay in the Bronze Age, and it is likely to slow down the development of the territory.

If you choose to enter the feudal era, then the Condor Heroes will usher in a relatively safe development environment. At that time, Ningyuan can safely and boldly develop the Condor Heroes plane. Moreover, the feudal era has the greatest advantage, that is, it can build teleportation arrays in the city.

Although the teleportation array will automatically close in a state of war, in a non-war state, it can quickly reach another city, allowing two cities to quickly flow resources. The emergence of the teleportation array will greatly increase the development speed of the territory.

Moreover, in the feudal era, it was not impossible to invade others. If you have absolute confidence in your own territory, you can continue to go out and invade.

The player lords in the feudal era are much richer than the player lords in the Bronze Age. As the saying goes, if they don’t open for three years, they will eat for three years.

A player plane from the feudal era is worth seven or eight player planes from the Bronze Age. As long as you can successfully win one, it will basically be equivalent to getting rich overnight.

Therefore, from the Bronze Age to the Feudal Age, it is a necessary process for the continuous development and growth of the territory. Players' lords just need to let it go, and there is no need to deliberately change anything.

After thinking through all this, Ning Yuan decided to let everything go.
