After Wu Hui, many other players gradually became the bosses of the city-state.

Whether it's war, marriage or internal usurpation, there are many ways to do both. It's just that Wu Hui moves faster and handles it beautifully.

In ten years, the city lord under his control had a son, and the city-state was completely controlled by Wu Hui. Schools and examinations were implemented in the city. The original nobles were wiped out. In other words, there were not many people in this area.

Only when resources are abundant can a large number of scholars emerge.

Implementing the imperial examination system for officials in a city with tens of thousands of people is completely different from implementing the imperial examination system in an empire with tens of millions of people. How could Athens even have voting elections in that era?

?Based on the small number of people.

With fewer people, anything can be done easily. With more people, the territory is larger, and the difficulty of any policy increases exponentially.

Wu Hui's next plan is to delay the expansion of the territory and focus on climbing the technology tree. However, there is actually a shortcut to climbing the technology tree, which is to sweep away the surrounding player lords. Each time you defeat one, you can harvest many craftsmen and technologies.

No player is completely unable to climb the technology tree, and each player will make different improvements based on different surrounding resources. So raiding them can really harvest a lot of industrial chains.

The good thing about this kind of city-state era is that you can beat people and steal things at will, without having to make a claim to make excuses or anything like that.

Wu Hui acted very quickly, killing the threatening players before they could react and form an alliance. In terms of training the army, his level was not the first but also the top three among the players. In addition, he was backed by an iron mine and was raising horses.

The weapons and equipment also crush the opponents.

Fortunately, these players basically only have a population of several hundred or thousands. It is not too difficult to digest, and the residents educated by the players are more receptive to Wu Hui's policies, and there are no aristocrats.

Therefore, annexing player power not only eliminates competitors, but is also very profitable in itself.

There is actually a live broadcast of this game, and many people are watching it. The host of Servant of the Demon God also jumped out to explain. Unfortunately, not many people can really understand this high-end game.

The number of players is decreasing rapidly, and the players who took control of the city-states first have basically started to clear out the surrounding competitors who are still struggling to develop at the village and town level.

At the same time, everyone also gained some understanding of the world. Wu Hui confirmed that his location was inland, far away from the ocean. There were no large city-states or countries that were too powerful around him.

The map did not overlap with any place on the earth in Wu Hui's memory. No trace of supernatural power was found at all.

The main resource in the surrounding area is land, plus an iron mine and a coal mine. A terrain like this that can be used for both farming and iron smelting is usually called the Land of Longxing. There are not many good places in the world.

.

Therefore, the top ten players have a smooth start. Even if they are not particularly good at management and construction, they will not fall out of the top three hundred with this kind of terrain.

Located in the north of the temperate zone, the climate is a bit cold. Wu Hui began to think about what development route is most suitable for this geographical environment.

At present, thanks to the help of many players, I am far ahead of NPCs in terms of technological level. If I want to continue to develop and increase everyone's cohesion and social stability, I need to establish a mainstream school of thought, or in other words

Religious.

There are many advanced ideologies on earth, and many of them are dregs in modern society, but in ancient times they were all at a crushing level.

However, these ideologies, to put it bluntly, have only two directions.

Enlighten people's wisdom and accelerate development.

The policy of obscuring the people reduces the difficulty of governing.

Of course Wu Hui chose Qi Minzhi, he is not a rubbish feudal ruler and the difficulty needs to be lowered.

There are many ideologies of Qiminzhi. Religion can basically be excluded. Confucianism and Mohism, which are religious in nature, also need to be improved. In the end, it is either the humanities thought of the Renaissance, or the Luwang Xinxue that has never had the opportunity to be fully promoted.

Or you can combine them to create a suture monster.

It's a doctrine of use. As long as it's good, you can take it. It's not shabby.

The city-state era is still going on, and there are about three to four hundred players who have been directly eliminated. It is quite cruel.

But as long as they are still alive, they are no longer so easy to perish. Thirty-four years into the game, the first-generation city lord controlled by Wu Hui is already half-old. He is thinking about whether to choose a stable bloodline inheritance or a daily life.

Every time you come to power, you need a pattern of struggle.

If it was like Rome, where there were not many blood connections between emperors, it would be really easy for everyone who was qualified to be in power to fight in this feudal era.

But if blood inheritance is maintained, the progress of opening up people's wisdom will obviously be much slower. When the industrial revolution comes later, there is a high probability that it will be overthrown. Things like constitutional monarchy may not be possible.

There are risks in both things, one in the early stage and the other in the later stage. So although Wu Hui will personally control whoever takes the top position, a specific and stable selection method is still necessary. Well, there are still more than two hundred years to go.

Don't develop too fast, be steady and upgrade step by step. So for now, let's start with the monarchy.

As long as the people can live a good life, the monarchy will not be overthrown.

There are many systems in the world, but the best system in every era is always a system suitable for productivity. After all, if you can hold elections and vote in a city-state now, what will happen if it becomes a great empire in the future? Rome was also a republic at the beginning, but it was not the same in the end because

Continuously expand and become an empire? When productivity is not enough, various political systems can bloom in a small area. If the population and area are larger, it can still only be an empire.

The confrontations in the city-state era gradually ended. After several decades, players began to develop towards the kingdom level. The global population and average technology level have increased significantly.

Players' advancement of civilization in the early stages can be said to be like launching rockets. All kinds of knowledge from modern times, plus a lot of smart people with strong memory and knowledge. The improvement in technology has almost caught up with the natural development of ancient times in just a few decades.

For more than a thousand years.

Civilization is like a fire. The fire will get stronger and stronger before it burns out the fuel. So the first hundred years are the time for everyone to develop and grow. After that, everyone has to consider tampering with ideology and culture.

Wu Hui acted quickly, revising laws, spreading scientific knowledge and ideas, and building schools. Three city-states and multiple villages with a total population of 200,000 also began to increase their cultural literacy as the population continued to increase. Wu Hui

The country has become a country with a strong atmosphere of scholars and everyone is proud of research.

The rulers are the philosopher-king family, which has produced wise men throughout the ages. There is also a small parliament that also holds considerable power.
