In ancient times, there were no chemical fertilizers, no high-yielding crops, and the population was very low. A country with a population of one million is considered a regional power, and a country with a population of tens of millions is considered a top empire with a lasting reputation in world history.
However, with the introduction of technology and high-yielding crops, feudal empires with a population of hundreds of millions also appeared in the later period.
Population, prosperity, military, culture and technology, territory area. These five are the scoring criteria for this game and the main criteria for evaluating a country and a regime.
When Wu Hui faced the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms, he did not go out personally. Instead, he sent three generals to adopt different tactics and divide them into three groups. At the same time, remotely contact the country where the tarantula is located on the other side and ask him to raid from behind. By then, the territory of the three countries will be divided.
The Tarantula's current territory and population are average, with only a few hundred thousand people, but they can be captured quickly at critical moments.
Now everyone is actually in a rather embarrassing situation, although every technology has reached the level of the Tang and Song Dynasties, and some have even reached the level of the Ming Dynasty. But the population was not as good as that of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
After all, population doesn't just fall from the sky. Depending on natural growth, it is estimated that it will take nearly a hundred years to reach its peak. Although Wu Hui wrote a manual for barefoot doctors and used modern thinking to study medicine, which greatly reduced the mortality rate, it would be very good to have an annual growth rate of 10%.
There are also various disasters and wars to consider. Once the growth rate is encountered, it will plummet.
Wu Hui estimated that after the second hundred years, the population under his command would only be in the tens of millions. It won’t reach hundreds of millions until the third hundred years are over.
Join forces with the Tarantulas to defeat the three players in one battle and expand the territory a lot, but it is impossible to eliminate the opponent at once. You can only point out compensation, territory, population and so on.
The players' governance is still very popular among the people. It will be more troublesome for you to consume it when you knock it down. Of course, the literacy rate and other qualities of the people under the player's rule are also high. After you defeat them, you don't need to waste time on cultivating them from scratch.
In this battle, the army of the Kingdom of Wisdom became famous far and wide. Their cavalry, construction equipment, gunpowder, heavy armor, and crossbows were all powerful. Military discipline is maintained, and there is no violation of Qiu. Equipped with a staff group system and a specialized military school. The commander may not be the best, but he certainly won't make too many mistakes.
The military discipline of this army may not be as high as that of the Yue Family Army, but it has surpassed that of most armies in the feudal era, and may be stronger than some modern countries.
Well, now the technological level of Wu Hui’s Wisdom Country is also advancing towards the Song and Ming levels or the Renaissance.
The technological progress of the ancients was slow. One was that there were so many research directions that I didn’t know which one was correct. The second reason is that there are no suitable communication carriers and preservation channels, and there are not enough intellectuals to study it. The third is the lack of modern scientific thinking.
Don't underestimate the power of ideas, put forward theories based on phenomena, set up experiments/predictions, verify or overturn theories, and improve. Such a complete set of scientific methods was basically invisible in ancient times.
Generally speaking, the ancients only had the first step, and many modern disciplines often suffer setbacks when setting up experiments. Either there are ethical implications, or there is no ability to experiment at all and can only be empty talk, so it is difficult to develop.
Players like Wu Hui and others have brought advanced ideas from modern times into the game, which has greatly promoted society. A two-thousand-year technological development path has been completed in one hundred years.
In the next twenty years, Wu Hui and Tarantula continued to suppress the three alliance countries, and finally destroyed them and annexed their populations. Tarantula also became a vassal state of Wu Hui.
Wu Hui's total population has reached two million. At the same time, the expansion of the Eight-Eyed Spider has brought its population to eight million, and has touched the territory of many surrounding players. Including Wu Hui, Du Ziming, Ren Yin, and Cao Buzai.
He has no real control over much of this territory. With a population of eight million, it is really vast and sparsely populated for the size of this territory. new
But in the state of expansion, the almost invincible legion appears very powerful. Wu Hui decided to start fighting against the Eight-Eyed Spider. In this case, the Eight-Eyed Spider might collapse after losing two games. But with such a large territory and invincible territory, it will be very attractive to other surrounding countries.
Everyone started to fight against the eight-eyed spider.
Of course, the eight-eyed spider is not worried about this problem.
He didn't think about how long he could last, but he hadn't reached the limit of expansion and domination yet. At least the population could grow again.
The eight-eyed spider was besieged from all sides, and while everyone was fighting, the population continued to increase. By the 180th year of the game, when the Eight-Eyed Spider collapsed due to the failure of foreign wars and excessive internal conflicts, the total population had reached 20 million, and Wu Hui was already a big country with a population of 8 million.
Everyone began to pick up the territory and population left behind after the collapse of the Eight-eyed Spider. Now Wu Hui, Ren Yin, Du Ziming, Cao Buze and others can all reach a population of tens of millions.
"The collapse of the empire, accompanied by the carnival of other countries, is a bit like the death of all living things." Du Ziming hummed and started the next plan.
After the two sides expanded, the distance between him and Wu Hui Renyin became much smaller. There is absolutely a chance for a fight.
However, for a large country with tens of millions of people and thousands of miles of land, failure in foreign wars usually does not lead to the collapse of the regime. The most dangerous thing is internal contradictions. Of course, if you win, you can transfer the conflict, but if you lose, it will intensify it.
The territory left by the Eight-eyed Spider is divided among everyone, and technology is constantly developing. You can see the emergence of thermal weapons such as muskets and artillery. and the introduction of the steam engine.
Wu Hui also obtained a piece of coastline and began to develop navigation technology. Next comes the capitalist era of steam colonial navigation. Everyone has just expanded into an empire, and they are rushing towards the next era non-stop.
As long as it reaches the era of industry and capital, Du Ziming's nomadic empire will lose any advantage. So he must launch an attack before that. Relying on the mobility of the nomads, he successfully obtained the largest piece when devouring the Eight-eyed Spider's legacy. After two years of cultivation, he learned the appearance of the Eight-eyed Spider and began his second major expansion.
In real history, there were many powerful nomadic civilizations like this, including the Huns, Turks, and Mongols. Before the advent of the machine gun, the cavalry had one last moment of glory.
In the 197th year of the game, Wu Hui sent 100,000 troops and began to clash with Du Ziming's cavalry on the battlefield.
The army, initially equipped with muskets and artillery, faced off against the cavalry of the nomads. And these are not just ordinary nomads. They have also mastered musket technology and can shoot while riding horses.
Wu Hui also has cavalry, but he has comprehensive development, so naturally he cannot compare with Du Ziming in terms of specialization.
At the same time at sea, his caravan also encountered attacks and harassment by pirates. The backers behind these pirates are Bai Tao and the logician of Magic Hand.
