Chapter 546 Returning to the Territory, Johnson and Crawford [5K](1/3)
Until all markers within a hundred kilometers have been inherited.
Another four or five hours passed.
It was already past two o'clock in the morning.
All gold circle marks disappear.
This means that all unclaimed territory within a hundred kilometers has been inherited.
Of the twenty or thirty remaining territories, the two of them inherited twenty-two.
Because some territories are quite remote.
There are also some unclaimed territories where the surrounding lords are sparsely distributed.
These are unexpected factors.
As for Zong Shen, he is the most simple and rude.
He can navigate directly to his destination through the golden circle.
That's why he inherited so much ownerless territory.
In this round of inheritance of unclaimed territory, he had a mouthful of food.
Zong Shen's mentality has always been relatively good, and he can still remain calm in the face of these harvests.
Jiang Yike is different.
Even according to the slightly unfair distribution ratio.
She also gained a lot of population and resources from it.
Only in the relocation of buildings, she did not gain any benefit at all.
This is also something that can't be helped.
If she were allowed to move slowly with the two heroes.
Then the time it takes to inherit an unclaimed territory needs to be increased at least seven to eight times.
Even if Jiang Yi is willing to do so much, Zong Shen is unlikely to agree.
Around three o'clock in the morning.
Zong Shen rode the flying tiger and sent Jiang Yi and her two heroes back to the territory first.
With Zong Shen's permission, they each moved a third-level defense tower back from the unclaimed territory.
As for resources, their storage compartments are already filled.
The soldiers and farmers are now concentrated in Zong Shen's territory.
After a while, Jiang Yi will personally lead the escorting wolf cavalry, as well as ox carts and carriages to Zong Shen's territory to transport her farmers and warriors.
Tonight's harvest is enough to elevate Jiang Yi's territory to another level.
But for Zong Shen, it hasn't changed that much.
The development of his territory has already exceeded village-level standards.
Moving up will be a long and difficult process.
You need to wait until the population reaches 100,000 and the territory expands to a state city.
When that time comes, it means that his territory will move from the village level to the state level.
This is a pretty big threshold.
Not to mention other lords, none of them have it so easy.
After all, they all come from scratch, from good to good, from good to perfect.
Every threshold is difficult to break through.
Take the current Jiang Yi as an example. If she wants to break through to a village-level unit, she still needs a lot of resource accumulation and population accumulation.
The corresponding territory expansion and construction alone will require massive resources.
Everyone's development goals are the same, but the progress and difficulty of development are different.
Although Zong Shen accounted for most of tonight's harvest, it can only be regarded as a wave of outstanding icing on the cake.
He had also been mentally prepared for this.
All the accumulation now is laying a solid foundation for the next development.
The deeper the accumulation, the sooner the territory can reach the state level.
Once the territory becomes a state city, both the offensive and defensive status and the future development progress of the territory will be improved again, leaving other lords eighteen streets behind.
While others are still lingering in village-level units.
Zong Shen has already established a city territory with a population of more than 100,000.
Such an achievement may be nothing to the Aboriginal people.
But it's absolutely explosive in Lords.
In this world, the Matthew Effect is most vividly reflected.
The strong become stronger and the weak become weaker.
The same thing can always be accomplished more easily by a strong person.
Becoming a national city is also one of Zong Shen’s short- and medium-term development goals.
To achieve this goal, it will take at least half a year to a year.
Of course this is a very conservative estimate.
If his plan goes well, there will be some other adventures.
The time it takes for the territory to become a state-level city will only be shorter than he expected.
Only after the territory becomes a state city.
Only then can he truly gain a foothold in this world.
A fortress-type city still has some ability to protect itself.
As for the giant city, that is another relatively distant goal.
When his territory becomes a giant city, it will take at least 5 to 10 years.
And compared to the normal development progress of aborigines, this period of time can be considered a rapid development.
There are two main criteria for the giant city level.
The first is area, and the second is population.
The population must reach at least 20 million to 40 million levels.
The area under its jurisdiction must include a surrounding area of 3,000 to 5,000 kilometers.
In other words, by the time Zong Shen was able to establish a giant city, he would have at least tens of millions of people under his command.
At the same time, he dominated a radius of three to four thousand kilometers.
The number of warriors of all levels they have is at least hundreds of thousands or even millions.
If there were no divisions between states and cities, it would be normal to have millions of warriors.
Zong Shen immediately returned to his territory after sending Jiang Yi back.
It's late at night now.
For this reason, he specially woke up the model worker Mariel, and then went to the living area to call Howie and two other heroes selected from the refugees.
Let the four of them sort out and classify this harvest.
After all, there are more than a hundred defensive arrow towers that have been moved back this time.
However, there are no fourth-order arrow towers among them. Most of them are first- to third-order arrow towers.
These arrow towers will serve as a supplement to the territorial defense buildings.
The location needs to be selected appropriately for placement.
With these defensive arrow towers, the territory's defense matrix can become more complete.
In this way, the defensive dead spots of the territory will gradually be reduced.
In addition, a lot has been gained in terms of population.
There were as many as two to three hundred warriors alone.
The current dominance value of the territory is sufficient.
Especially Zong Shen himself still has a lot of spare command points.
As for farmers, he was allocated three to four hundred people.
Specific details still need to be filtered and viewed.
There are also heroic talents among them, which he had noticed when he received them just now.
Captured all the heroic talents.
Jiang Yi had no complaints about this.
She is very smart, so she can naturally tell that it is Zong Shen who is giving her benefits tonight.
The materials and population are almost the same as those picked up for free.
