Summoning Total War

Chapter 26 Migration (Part 1)

Impact!

He flew up on his own.

With a crash, Murphy fell heavily to the ground. He opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood with a 'wow' sound. He felt that his internal organs were churning, and his chest seemed to have been severely injured. The severe pain made it difficult for him to breathe!

A white figure ran towards him, and then Murphy felt a warm current rushing from his back to his whole body. The cold liquid was poured into his mouth, and it had a greasy taste. Murphy knew what it was, and he swallowed it in big mouthfuls.

The injury was temporarily suppressed, and Murphy struggled to stand up from the high priest's arms.

The Karazhan Hurricane Pterosaur was no longer in the sky, and about fifteen meters away from him, the largest Karazhan Hurricane Pterosaur was lying there quietly. It was dead...

A town citizen who had no time to dodge was crushed under its huge corpse, and now it has lost the breath of life.

What on earth just happened?

Murphy struggled to reconstruct what had happened in the blink of an eye.

He tightened his grip on the spear and took a lunge. The body of Hammerton lying at his feet made him fearless for a moment!

Murphy was carefully calculating the flight trajectory of the huge monster in front of him. The injury to his leg told him that he had no way to dodge. Although there was only a one in ten thousand chance of hurting the behemoth in front of him, he still didn't give up!

If you really can't defeat death!

Then let yourself be a hero for once...

Murphy vaguely remembered that the trajectory of the Karazhan Hurricane Pterosaur's flight in mid-air paused, as if it was acted upon by some external force, and then deviated greatly. The original flight path of the Karazhan Hurricane Pterosaur was to pass over Murphy's head, and then grab Murphy with its giant claws! But after that meal, the body of the Karazhan Hurricane Pterosaur actually swooped down and rushed towards Murphy head-first! With this kind of attack, even if it kills Murphy, he will be seriously injured when he hits the ground.

Everything that follows seems to be completed in an instant.

Murphy raised his gun, and the huge body of the pterosaur hit him. The spear was nailed to the jawbone of the pterosaur. Murphy was knocked ten meters away by the huge force. The skull of the pterosaur hit the ground, and his neck After the bone collided with the earth, it bent into a twisted arc. The pterosaur leader died. The pterosaurs hovering in the sky seemed to be frightened and expelled by something, and they suddenly left faster than when they came!

Murphy staggered to the huge body of the Hurricane Pterosaur. This time he did not refuse the support of the high priest.

He quietly stared at the body of the prehistoric beast in front of him. Even if it was dead, its remains had an awe-inspiring aura of terror!

His own spear was nailed to its jawbone, and most of it was submerged in its body.

But Murphy knew that this would never be the cause of its death. His eyes searched the giant corpse in front of him.

Soon, he found his target.

It was an arrow, all silvery white in color, that almost completely penetrated into the head of the Hurricane Pterosaur, leaving only a small section of arrow feathers exposed. Murphy grabbed the arrow with both hands and tried to pull it out, but it barely moved!

It seemed that the arrow cluster had penetrated into the skull and was stuck inside.

After pulling it out a few times, Murphy gave up.

His current strength is not enough to pull out the arrow from the pterosaur's skull.

"Who saved me?" Murphy looked around, but all he saw was darkness.

When the first ray of sunlight appeared in the sky, Murphy gave the order to move.

Then came a heavy rain, which forced Murphy to ask all the wounded to find a place to take shelter.

In the rain, wounds are prone to infection. In the era without alcohol disinfection and a series of resistant drugs, wound infection was almost the cause of death for most of the wounded. In the battle last night, the entire territory suffered a lot of casualties, and almost everyone who participated in the battle had wounds of various sizes. If a large-scale wound infection occurs, it can be a fatal blow to the territory.

After much hesitation, Murphy finally issued an order to relocate the territory before dawn.

A fire has transformed the original town beyond recognition.

And last night's battle made him discover that the address chosen for the territory was not so suitable for defense. Although the gnolls were defeated last night, more than a thousand gnolls escaped under the cover of night. These escaping jackals are the future crisis, and they are likely to attract more powerful jackals!

Murphy eventually decided to locate the new town on a high ground near the Nidolia River.

It was less than five hundred meters away from the port.

The high ground is about ten meters above the river, so there is no need to worry about the rising river water threatening the town. Next to it is a fertile land covering an area of more than 30 kilometers. As long as we set fire to burn the weeds in the autumn, dig ditches and fertilize it for half a year, wheat can be planted next year. It is obviously impossible to reclaim all the land, but it is not difficult to reclaim the part of the land close to the river.

At the location of the new territory, a river can be dug around the city and then water from the Nidoria River can be introduced. This will not only facilitate the lives of urban residents, but also form an invisible barrier.

This is the prototype of a moat. When the territory develops to a certain level, it can be developed into a moat.

Relying on the construction of the port, this is equivalent to an extra side of defense. The back is the Nidoria River. The river is a line of defense, which can effectively avoid being attacked from the front and back!

And in Murphy's future plans, port trade is definitely a top priority!

Moving territory is very difficult at first, but as long as you get through the beginning, everything starts to take shape.

Life will get better again.

This battle gave Murphy the idea of breaking out of the circle of entanglement with the jackals.

If possible, he would then give up most of his current territory and open up to the other side of the Nidolia River.

His power base is really too weak.

He must find a way to find a place to cultivate his health and rest.

Casualty statistics came out quickly.

More than 200 Greek infantrymen were killed in the battle, and more than half of the general's guards suffered casualties. The Spartan heavy infantry suffered the most heavy losses.

Only eleven of the eighty-strong Spartan heavy infantry survived...

On the contrary, the deaths of the urban militiamen were not serious. Because the frontal battlefield was all resisted by the infantry, less than ten of the more than a thousand urban residents who were recruited died.

Nearly half of the entire town's military strength was consumed. Although the actual number of deaths did not reach this amount. However, many Greek infantry soldiers will no longer be able to pick up weapons and go to the battlefield due to excessive injuries. Most of them will be retired and reduced to ordinary townspeople, and the territory will also arrange other jobs for them.

War is cruel!

As the defeated gnolls, more than 1,500 gnolls were killed by the soldiers during the retreat, while about 800 semi-adult gnolls were captured. They will be kept as slaves for the territory and will do so until their death.

Even so, there were still quite a few jackals who escaped under the cover of night.

After the rain stops.

Plans to move the town began again. The townspeople carried all useful things to the port, while the soldiers escorted about eight hundred gnoll slaves forward slowly.

General Hamilton's body was carried away, and his father, a man with the same resolute face, gave a heavy military salute to Murphy.

"Ding! This man has extraordinary military talents. Do you want to promote him to a general?"

"Yes." Murphy issued the order to promote Hamilton's father to general without hesitation.

Then, a general's attribute box appeared in his mind.
