Chapter 1 Preface(1/2)

()

This is the hinterland of the southern plains, located in the southeast of the Karazan Mountains, to the west is the Nidoria River, leading to the distant sea. To the east is a dense forest, which was originally the territory of wood elves, but since the dwarves announced their vows of revenge, the elves have shrunk their defenses and abandoned most of the outer forests, and this place has become the territory of werewolves.

The gnolls have been moving in the form of small-scale clans. Even if they attack humans, they are not the opponent of humans who have established an urban system. But for some reason, since last year, the gnolls' clans have begun to integrate under some powerful force and eventually formed a tribal system - the Kazart-the gnoll tribe!

Since last year, the activities of gnolls attacking human towns have become more and more frequent. Until the gnoll tribe captured Simoton, one of the big cities of the human city-state with the troops of 18,000 adult werewolfs, that the human city-state truly realized that an unprecedented enemy appeared around them!

After forming a joint front, the human city-states lost steadily in the battle with the zombies. The opponent was no longer a foolish beast and had a large number of relatively primitive weapons, which caused the human defense to shrink step by step. In the end, it was only by relying on the three large cities that supported each other when humans rose on the southern plains that stabilized the formation and barely fought against it.

In the war with the gnolls, humans discovered that the gnolls were no longer rushing up in a mess. These primitive sub-ethnic creatures actually had a certain discipline in just three years. They even domesticated a group of wolves and cultivated gnoll cavalry on the historical stage for the first time!

The sudden strong rise of the werewolf made the human city-state turn their doubtful eyes to the orc tribe who was driven to the loess high slope.

After realizing that humans encountered unprecedented threats, the human city-state decisively looked for reliable allies to maintain the situation, and finally turned its attention to the dwarves who had risen strongly after returning to the surface world.

Dwarves need food, and humans need weapons.

The two hit it off!

Just as humans formed an alliance with the dwarves, the werewolf tribe decisively and forcibly advanced, opening up the passage with a considerable casualties. Although this passage was finally cut off under the strong counterattack of humans, some of the werewolfs had entered the southern wilderness, and a powerful crisis was about to come.

The southern wilderness is a barren land where a large number of dog-headed clans live, and another subspecies of the werewolf clan - the gray-style werewolf!

The intention of the Gnoll tribe is obvious. They intend to conquer and gather the dog-headed clan and unite another Gnoll clan to form a northern and southern front, attacking the human city-state in front and back!

The weapons supported by the dwarves were still on the way, but a large number of kobolds had appeared behind the human city-state. They attacked the villages and destroyed farmland, trying to stir the rear of the human city-state into a mess!

And just as this plane was surging, a small village suddenly fell from the sky deep in the hinterland of the southern plains.

The Second Era 343 years.

The Orcs and the descendants of the giant broke out in the Marsha Plain with a population of more than 800,000. The orcs, who were once giant slaves, broke through the defense line of the giants from the front with the behemoth beast, and won a game back on the front battlefield with the descendants of the giants for the first time!

After the Battle of Marsha, the orcs were renamed Bemon.

The Second Era 365 years.

The dwarf clan, who was driven away by ancient elves, hugged in the mountains for thousands of years, returned to the surface world strongly. With nearly a thousand years of hard work, the dwarfs extracted more high-quality metal. With this rare metal named [Elegant Gold], the dwarfs fully armedly attacked the elves led by the ancient elves. Eight thousand dwarf heavy infantry wearing heavy armor and holding battle axes defeated the defense line of the elves like a destruction. Forcing the grassland elves and wood elves had to give up their territory to retreat to the birthplace of the elves - Emerald Forest.

After a strong counterattack, the two sides fell into a stalemate. The dwarfs began to migrate population to the surface world and form cities.

The Second Era 372 years.

The werewolf clans operating outside the human city-state were strongly integrated under the influence of some unknown force. More than 100,000 adult were gathered and attacked human towns and villages. The human defense line collapsed several times, but under the mobilization of the city-state system, the defense line was finally stabilized and formed an alliance with the dwarves. A large number of soldiers were continuously sent to the front line. The werewolf's offensive was curbed, and the war between the two sides entered gluing.

The Second Era 373 years.

The werewolf forcibly broke through the southern defense line of mankind due to huge casualties. A group of werewolf troops entered the southern wilderness. The gray-style werewolf active in the southern wilderness was integrated. More than 500,000 kowtows became vassals of the werewolf and disrupted the rear of the human city-state.

The dark clouds cover the sky and the sun are coming!

There are several villages near the Nidoria River, and a large town with a dock port.

But now, this place is deserted. Because it is located on the front line of the attacks of werewolves, the land here has been abandoned by human city-states and instead guards the territory of the hinterland of the southern plains.

In the early days when the werewolf attacked, humans suffered a lot of losses. Many towns that had not yet reacted were captured, and a large number of people were plundered, either became slaves, or became food for the werewolf. It was not until Simoton was captured by the werewolf that humans reacted and began to urgently migrate the population and reorganize the defense line. Therefore, this place had become a barren land a year ago.

Gnolls do not farm, they live by nomadism and fishing.

So after there is no people here, there are fewer signs of gnoll activities, which is temporarily safe.

The human city-state in the southern plains has thirty-six large cities, each city brings its own towns and villages to a total of more than 100,000 people! The mobilization power of the city-state era was undoubtedly revealed in the moment of war. A large number of troops were sent from the rear to the front line, relying on the solid city walls to defend. For a time, the werewolf's offensive was curbed and they could not make any progress.

To the south of the Nidoria River, there was originally a town called Hilton, but under the attack of the gnolls, it had become a ruin.

But at this moment, there is a thriving scene in this ruin.

Two teams of soldiers holding round shields and spears patrolling the ruins of the town. A large number of civilians in the center of the town are repairing damaged houses. More than five hundred young and strong laborers are cutting down trees and using sharpened wooden stakes to build a wooden fence surrounding the town.

In the square at the center of the town, a team of soldiers wearing bright red robes with a firm and solemn expression surrounded a boy in black clothes and black hair, looking vigilantly at everything around. The boy with black hair and black eyes was standing in the center of the square, directing the people to clear up the debris on the street.

Everyone was nervous and busy.

Until nightfall and the gate of the wooden fence was built, there was a burst of cheers from the civilians in the town. The black-haired boy who had always looked serious also returned to the most spacious and luxurious house in the center of the town.

"Huh, it's been a week. Finally, the wooden fence was built." Murphy fell on the bed and breathed a long breath.

It has been a week since I traveled to this world. Looking back at the situation at that time, Murphy still has remnants.

When he first came to this world, Murphy encountered a group of ferocious humanoid creatures. When they stood upright, these humanoid creatures were about the same height as humans, with fluffy gray-green fur covering their bodies. Judging from their heads, they were like a hyena, with yellow teeth and blood-red eyes, bloodthirsty and cruel! As soon as they saw Murphy, these humanoid creatures of these hyena rushed up howled.

At that time, Murphy almost thought he would die!

Just when he thought he was dead, a team of soldiers wearing bright red robes holding a golden round shield and five-meter spear suddenly appeared beside him. These soldiers wearing bright red robes with strong muscles, blue veins, and solemn and resolute expressions lined up in front of Murphy, and decisively shot out the gun when those hyenas-like humanoid creatures rushed over!

"Puchi!" "Puchi!"

A sound of weapons piercing through the flesh and blood sounded, and more than a dozen ferociously-faced hyena-like humanoid creatures fell in front of Murphy.

"Sparta!"

The soldiers wearing red robe and holding round shield spear roared, put down their spear and pulled out the short sword at their waists and rushed forward.

When Murphy came to his senses, all the hideous creatures had fallen in front of him.

The warrior in red blood robe, led by the leader, came to him and said respectfully: "General!"

Thinking about it now, Murphy also felt a little funny.

After coming to his senses, he immediately remembered the previous dream-like scene.

I vaguely remember the scene of the game "Total War", and then a person similar to the electronic sound told him, please choose the initial civilized town.

That day Murphy happened to have just played "Rome: Total War" to unify the world with Greece. He thought he was dreaming, so he replied without hesitation: "Greece!"

Murphy remembered very clearly that he played until three o'clock in the morning to unify the world, and then turned off the computer and went to bed.

But I don’t know what happened. After having that strange dream, I woke up and came to this world where I don’t know where it was.

After some memories, Murphy was sure that he had really traveled through time.

It also brought the auxiliary system of Total War.

After eating a little bit of food, Murphy immediately murmured in his heart after returning to the room: "Show the town attributes."

Then, a data scene appeared in his mind.

Urban Management Interface:

City: Athens (large town)

People's hearts: loyalty (loyalty, suspicion, riot)

Taxation: Medium taxation

Income: 1800 (silver coins, half a year) 2000 (grain, half a year)

Treasury: 4600 (silver coins) 6000 (grain)

Population: 2000

Social security: 165% (garrison +115%, agriculture +30%, civilization +10%, health +5%, medium tax +5%)

Population growth: +6.5% (agriculture +5%, moderate tax +1%, sanitation +0.5%)

Population required for upgrading: 6000

It has army: two Greek infantry teams (160 people), one Spartan heavy infantry team (80 people), and one general guard team (24 people).

Have a affairs officer: diplomat (1)

The food in the city can be maintained for 12 rounds (one round is equal to one month in real time, the grain of a unit is about 100 kilograms per stone, the food consumed by soldiers is about 2 kilograms a day, and the food consumed by ordinary people is about 1 kilogram a day and two meals a day. The food consumed by 2,000 people a year is about 6,000 kilograms.)

List of existing buildings:

Governor's residence: Governor's residence is a place where officials administer, and allows locals to see the magnificence of Greek civilization. It is the basic administrative center. Governor's residence also expresses sovereignty and stability over this area. Governor's residence allows the city to develop rapidly and can upgrade existing buildings. (Recruitment: farmers. Increase recruitment: diplomats.)

Town barracks: Town barracks have good facilities to train and accommodate troops. The barracks are clean and tidy, but they are absolutely uncomfortable. They come here to protect their homes rather than enjoy! Town barracks can be upgraded to higher-level barracks with the development of the city. (Recruitment: Greek militia, Greek infantry.)

Wooden fences: A tall fence wall is built around the city with sharpened wood, giving people a sense of security. However, it cannot resist the enemy's siege weapons for too long. It is conceivable that such cheap and simple fortifications can be easily handled by workers. But it gives people the feeling of home, making people feel that this place can live, work and develop!

Cultivated land: This money cut down trees, set fire to create a clearing of space, clearing out a piece of space. Cultivated land can produce a large amount of food for the soldiers, citizens and slaves in the city, and promote population growth. However, this self-sufficiency agriculture can only support itself and its family, and can only barely make ends meet. If agriculture can develop, the city can upgrade quickly.

Roads: Army engineers build simple bridges in swamps, rivers and hills, and build roads based on gravel, maintain and repair these simple trails and remove the messy vegetation around the road. They are not ideal roads, but of course they are better than nothing.
