Summoning Total War
Chapter 57
If Murphy is most impressed by which branch of service Greece started in total war!
So there''s no doubt - krit Archer!
The Greek heavy infantry is known as the best price performance in the whole station, but their requirements for construction are not low. They must first upgrade from big towns to cities, and then build urban barracks to train and recruit Greek heavy infantry! It is a kind of service with strong combat effectiveness and fast training speed.
Before that, however, Greece had to rely on its infantry and militia to support the overall situation.
The standard shooter is weak in attack, short in range and slow in attack speed, while the Greek javelin cavalry is known as the first cavalry in the whole station. It is a kind of goods that can attack a team of archers and may be white flag. The first cavalry and the Rome light infantry, the most awesome force of the whole station, usually exist as a cannon for attracting firepower. That''s why Murphy hasn''t been in a hurry to build a stable. At least he doesn''t plan to train cavalry until the saddle stirrups are made by the blacksmith shop.
In contrast, the cavalry of the general guard is more reliable, at least they have the courage to fight!
The early auxiliary arms are so weak that the whole Greek civilization is calling for a group of powerful archers!
They showed up.
They are active in every corner of Greek civilization!
They fight as mercenaries! They have the longest range, the most powerful attack! Their skills can even be compared with those of the most elite archers of the barbarians who specialize in hunting for a living!
They are - Crete archers!!!
It''s all in one sentence.
——"Crete archer''s skill is famous in the world!"
After listening to the report of the newly promoted financial officer, Murphy almost did not hesitate to open the auxiliary system of total war.
As expected, there is an additional mercenary option in the data of arms recruitment!
They are Crete archers!

Explanation: the skill of Crete Archer is famous all over the world!
They can use the torrential rain of arrows to hit the enemy, not just harass them! These people can destroy the enemy''s front greatly before the main battle starts, or they can be placed behind the front of the defense forces. Without protection, they are easily attacked by cavalry and light marksman, and they have little chance in hand to hand combat.
Historically, Crete represented a way of fighting, not a region, so many of these mercenaries came from different parts of the Greek world. People born in Crete are highly valued in major cities and towns, and are invited to serve as archery instructors.
Greek infantry without Crete archers are lonely.
They can only fight hard in the enemy''s long-range attack. The weakness of marksman and javelin cavalry makes them lonely as snow. At this time, the vigorous figure of Crete Archer gives them hope! With these best archers, they even have the possibility to attack Rome!
In total war, if you start with Greece, the first thing you have to do.
That is to recruit all the Crete archers that can be seen in the field of vision. They will tell you with amazing lethality what a wise decision you have made!
Obviously, there were a lot of mercenaries among the Cretans who were brought along with the shipwreck.
They are proficient in bow and arrow skills, and can hit the enemy with dense arrow rain! They have excellent endurance, long-term mercenary career let them have a strong physique! They can pull the bow and shoot more distance than other archers!
In the auxiliary system of total war, all the Crete archers that can be employed are experienced + 1, which means that they are all veterans who have experienced cruel wars, and their combat skills are very skilled.
"With the Crete, there is the best archery instructor!" The joy in Murphy''s heart at the moment is hard to say. It can be said that the emergence of these Crete people has improved the territory''s combat effectiveness for a long time! At first Murphy was worried about how to train a qualified Archer after imitating the Centaur longbow, but now he doesn''t have to worry. With these Crete archers, everything is no longer a problem!
"Take me to see them." Murphy tidied up, then motioned to the treasurer to take him to meet them.
Just now, in the financial officer''s report, he said that because the number of refugees was a little large this time, there was not enough housing in the town, so he temporarily resettled those Crete people in the port.
It''s not surprising that the population has increased by half all of a sudden, and it can''t be rehoused.
Fortunately, when Murphy was planning the town, he planned to free up space for expansion. Now all we have to do is to build houses in those open spaces.
Out of the inner city, Murphy found that the port was much more crowded than before.
In the Cretan camp, Murphy accidentally sees the high priest. She is appeasing the rest of the Cretans in the name of the goddess.
Murphy walked over and looked at the high priest with his holy light.
She was saying something to the Cretan refugees who had suffered the shipwreck. Her words seemed to have some magic power, which made people feel convinced unconsciously.
At this time, the high priest also noticed the arrival of Murphy.
She took the new priests behind her to Murphy''s side, slowly bowed her head and said in a soft voice, "Your Excellency."
It can be seen that the high priest in a short period of time has a very high reputation among these Crete people. This is the power of theocracy, and it has something to do with her special breath that can influence others. And now her move, all of a sudden, will focus the eyes of all the Crete refugees on Murphy''s body. All of a sudden, these Crete people understood that this young man was the governor here.
The supreme ruler of the territory!
Murphy suddenly understood what the high priest meant, and she was using God''s authority to help herself to win over the Crete. As the high priest of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, she has just bowed to herself, which undoubtedly elevated her status to her high priest status.
It would be very convenient for him to incorporate the Crete.
In the eyes of these Crete people, the high priest with divine brilliance bowed his head to the governor, and his dignity was beyond doubt!
This is also the claim that the Lord is a lover of the goddess.
With the deliberate action of the high priest, it would be much easier for Murphy to incorporate these Crete people.
He selected some of the original Athenian townspeople to build houses with these Crete people, and then planned an area on an open space in the inner city as the residence of the Crete people.
In the beginning, Murphy was not in a position to break them up.
After they settle down, Murphy will start to mess them up. Mix with other urban residents to avoid some unnecessary trouble.
The auxiliary system shows that it''s ready to recruit Crete archers.
But Murphy doesn''t have this idea yet. He''s waiting for general riodari to come back. Murphy plans to let these Crete archers use Centaur longbows if the slave merchant pliffe can bring back a batch of Centaur longbows. They are the best shooters, they are more suitable to use Centaur Longbow to fight than other soldiers!
It was when Murphy was planning all this.
A sentry ran quickly in front of him and panted, "Your Excellency, governor! There''s a group of troops approaching! "
