Lord of the People: I rely on cheating for hegemony

In early March of the 33rd year of Tianxuan, the war on the four continents except the Eastern Continent, which had suddenly intensified since the beginning of the 3th year of Tianxuan, suddenly came to an abrupt end again.

However, Qu Mao is not surprised. After all, the Birdman system has been shrinking images since June of the 27th year of Tianxuan. Until early March of the 6rd year of Tianxuan, the trend of thumbnails still shows no sign of stopping.

In the past six years, the Central Continent, which was originally nearly ten times the size of the Eastern Continent, is now less than twice the size of the Eastern Continent. This is because the Eastern Continent has also continued to be shrunk, and the Eastern Continent itself has also been shrunk. Nearly 6%, only 20% of the size before the thumbnail.

The Western Continent has experienced nearly 6 years of miniatures. It was originally the second largest continent in the Hegemony Continent, but now it is smaller than the Eastern Continent.

The Southern Continent and the Northern Continent were relatively good, barely equal to the current Eastern Continent in area. In front of the miniature, although the Southern Continent and the Northern Continent were inconspicuous, they were still three times larger than the Eastern Continent.

As for the map at sea, the miniatures are even more powerful. The original sea distance from the Central Continent to the Eastern Continent would take seven days even if Sylvia Ocean was carrying two sea-speeding treasures using traditional super warships. Seven nights of sailing time, but after the end of nearly six years, under the same conditions, Sylvia Ocean can do it in only one day and one night.

Not to mention anything else, there was originally a strait about 5 kilometers wide between the outlying island and the empty island in the Holy Land of Emperor Yi. By early March of the 33rd year of Tianxuan, the civil docks of the villages in the north and south of the outlying island and the civil docks of the empty island could be separated from each other across the sea. Looking around, the distance between the two piers may not even be 3 kilometer.

Even if you use the traditional artillery first developed in Emperor Yi's territory, you can easily hit the opposite side with one shell at any dock.

The areas of the five continents in the Conflict for Hegemony continue to shrink, and the sea distance between different continents is also constantly shrinking. The forces of different God-Chosen player lords on the same continent, and the forces of God-Chosen player lords on different continents, are in contact with each other. The times became more frequent, and the battles for hegemony between them became more fierce.

But all of this seemed to suddenly disappear and come to an abrupt end after entering March of the 33rd year of Tianxuan.

In March of the 33rd year of Tianxuan, there was a sudden voice on the lord communication channel. Some God's Chosen player lords said: The soldiers have been defeated, the residents have been defeated, the military supplies have been exhausted, and the economy has collapsed. Let's just lie down. Forget it, whoever wants to fight can come and fight. There is nothing I can do to resist if I want to.

As soon as one person spoke, others immediately followed suit. In less than three days, most of the remaining God's Chosen player lord forces issued similar statements. They all began to lie flat, and the war naturally could not continue.

In the past six years, due to the continuous shrinkage of the Birdman system, the contacts between the God's Chosen player lords have become more and more frequent, and the wars between them have intensified. Each of the God's Chosen player lords has continued to be militaristic for the past six years. time.

In the early stage, as long as the two God-chosen player lords come into contact because of the miniatures, they will inevitably launch an attack on the enemy as soon as possible.

However, with the continuous fighting in the past six years, most of the God's Chosen player lords' power has been exhausted.

After all the warriors equipped with new weapons were sacrificed, they began to train traditional warriors to use the new weapons, or directly sent traditional warriors to fierce battlefields.Later, all the traditional-level warriors were exhausted, so the God-Chosen player lords recruited young men in the territory to join the army and fight on the battlefield. When this wave of new recruits were exhausted, age was no longer considered when recruiting troops in the territory. All men join the military.

By the time all the males between the ages of 12 and 55 in the territory were cleared, the time had entered the 33rd year of the Chosen. In the territory of most God's Chosen player lords' influence, it was already difficult to see male residents, even young female residents. , have all been sent to the battlefield to consume a wave.

It's no wonder that God's Chosen player lords are lying flat and rotten. The high-frequency wars in the past six years have left their territories riddled with holes, and the sex ratio of the population in the territories is seriously unbalanced.

Judging from the overall strength ranking of the God's Chosen player lords, there were still more than 29 God's Chosen player lords in the 600th year of Tianxuan. However, by early March of the 33rd year of Tianxuan, there were only 3 God's Chosen player lords left. power.

It's just that Qu Mao didn't understand it very much, because the Yi Emperor's territory had unified the Eastern Continent long before the miniature, so the impact on the Eastern Continent was very small during the miniature process, but in the overall strength ranking of the God's Chosen player lords , the ranking of Emperor Yi’s territory still did not enter the top ten.

According to Ximen Fenghua's rough estimate, in the past six years, the total population reduction in the four continents except the Eastern Continent due to the war for hegemony should be no less than hundreds of billions. This does not include the natural increase in population due to war damage. rate reduction.

Now the four continents except the Eastern Continent have a combined population of only 500 billion, of which women, children and the elderly account for at least 450 billion.

On the contrary, the Holy Land of Emperor Yi's Territory and the Eastern Continent only had a total population of less than 350 billion before the start of the miniature. However, in early March of the 33rd year of Tianxuan, the Holy Land of Emperor Yi's Territory and the Eastern Continent together had a combined population of almost 3 billion. The total population has increased by about 380 billion in the past six years, which is less than 30%. The average annual natural population growth rate is about 10%.

Of course, this growth rate is not necessarily all natural growth. There are also residents and soldiers that Qu Mao occasionally recruits using resident recruitment coupons and warrior recruitment coupons, as well as residents provided by the refugee shelter on Yi Island, the holy land of Emperor Yi's territory, every day. But now The 100 or so residents provided by refugee shelters every day are completely negligible compared with the population base of 350 billion.

On the other four continents, the 12 branch territories of Emperor Yi's territory together have a population of nearly 30 billion. This is not to say that the 12 branch territories of Emperor Yi's territory have not suffered any losses in the nearly six years of fighting for hegemony, but The losses were basically the population provided by Qu Mao with the soldier recruitment coupons.

In addition, due to the loss of residents, the Holy Land of the Yi Emperor Territory and the Eastern Continent regularly immigrate to the 12 branch territories on the other four continents every year to replenish the population. In addition, the Yi Emperor Territory continuously exports Yi Emperors to the 12 branch territories. There are warriors from six armies in the territory, so the total population of the 12 branch territories has basically not decreased.

According to incomplete statistics, in the past six years, the total number of military and civilian losses in the 12 branch territories was also around 13 billion, but these lost populations were basically made up by Qu Mao and the Eastern Continent.

The God's Chosen player lords were forced to lie flat and the war on the continent was forced to stop. Qu Mao felt that an opportunity had come for Emperor Yi's territory.
