Two weeks later.
The construction of the port has been basically completed, and most of the construction of the second battleship has been completed, because considerable manpower has been invested. Murphy estimated that in a few days, the ship would be able to go down the river. As long as the warship can bring enough trade income, Murphy believes that it will not be long before this difficult period can be passed!
The more seriously injured soldiers will be disbanded, and they will become the patrol of the town and undertake the work of training new soldiers in the barracks.
Those who could be cured with holy water were reorganized by Murphy. This time, Murphy found that the attributes of the army in the auxiliary system of total war had changed greatly! In the game, an army with combat experience, even if only one person died in the war, will still be an army with full experience and full establishment after going back to repair. However, this is not the case in reality. After Murphy integrated these postwar veterans, their new attributes were recognized and counted by the auxiliary system of total war.
After two weeks of renovation, the territory finally entered the normal stage. And Murphy was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Looking at the busy crowd in the harbor, Murphy couldn''t help thinking of something that happened two weeks ago.
The day after the war, Murphy agreed to Marquis Elizabeth''s proposal to trade jackals.
He handed over to Marquis Elizabeth the remaining soldiers, who were not seriously injured, about a hundred or so, and gave her full authority to deal with this proposal. Now that she will make this suggestion, she must have known the whole process. The town needs Murphy to be in charge, and Murphy can only choose to trust her on this trade issue.
Only at this moment did Murphy realize that she had underestimated this woman.
Murphy is not a woman.
Last night''s war, although won a brilliant victory, but also the situation of the town to a very dangerous situation!
Capital depletion, material shortage, urban migration, population shortage and so on!
All these problems are fatal weaknesses in this era of extraordinary turbulence!
Murphy really can''t wait.
After dealing with the town, it''s evening.
Murphy had a simple dinner with bread in boiling water. Because of his physical energy consumption, he forced himself to eat a few pieces of stew that didn''t taste very good.
After a big war, we can''t find fault any more.
The wounded need to be treated and materials need to be transported. Before the house is built, the accommodation of urban residents needs to be planned. Although it is after a great war, everything can not be relaxed. The soldiers who patrol and watch at night also need to be carefully arranged.
Fortunately, general Hammerton''s father, riodary Grice, was also a very capable general!
Although he doesn''t really have much talent for finance.
But he still had extraordinary talent in the military, in maintaining discipline, in ensuring territorial order and in law.
"No one is perfect. Make the best use of everything."
In just over a month, Murphy felt that she had grown up too much, too much.
Although very tired, really tired.
But also very substantial, he felt at this time, is a real man!
Put down the material statistics, Murphy suddenly wanted to smoke a cigarette.
But there was no smoke in this era. He could only rub his forehead wearily to find out if there was any wine in the room. Fortunately, he found a bottle of wine, sealed in a jar, because the glass manufacturing technology is not developed.
Wine, whether in central or Western Europe, was born in a very early period. Before the Shang Zhou Dynasty and in the middle period of mythology, wine had been widely used in sacrificial activities in China. That is roughly in the Shennong era. In the west, wine appeared about 6000 years ago, but its popularity was very slow. Most of the first wines were made from wild grapes. It was not until the rise of Christianity that wine was gradually promoted as "the blood of God.".
Half lying on a simple paved bed, Murphy poured wine into his mouth.
As a man who has experienced the edification of modern shopping malls, this wine is basically no different from drinks for Murphy.
Soft footsteps came from outside.
Murphy doesn''t have to look to know who''s here. The only one who entered his room without notice was the high priest.
He continued to lie on the bed. The wound on his back made him unable to sleep on his back. At least for the next week, he had to sleep on his back carefully.
Although the use of holy water can make the wound heal quickly, the high priest would not let him use it. Said that this degree of wound with magic treatment for a period of time, there is no need to use holy water. Moreover, as the Lord of the town and the core of all people, Murphy needs to take care of her body. Holy water is the best thing not to use.
A pair of warm hands gently pressed on Murphy''s back, slender fingers deftly untied Murphy''s clothes, and then untied the bandage on his back.
Murphy let out a groan because of the pain.
The figure behind him was more careful. She took the bandage apart and applied a thin layer of powder to the wound. Then, the high priest put his hands together and sang the ancient sacrificial rites in his mouth. The power of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, gathered in her palm, and a trace of silver light appeared beside her. Silver gradually turned into gold, which reflected her soft and beautiful face with extraordinary nobility and holiness!
A pair of warm hands gently pressed on Murphy''s wound.
He felt that there was a warm current nourishing his body, as if there was an energy being injected, which made him feel a kind of comfortable pleasure.
The treatment was soon over.
The high priest''s delicate forehead was full of sweat. She carefully examined Murphy''s wound, and then turned to leave.
But she was shocked by Murphy''s action when she was together.
Murphy turns around, embraces the woman with faint fragrance around her with open hands, and then holds her to the bed with her whole head buried in her plump chest.
The delicate body of the high priest was stiff and motionless.
Murphy closed his eyes and pushed himself into the high priest''s arms. The soft touch made him feel comfortable, just like a bear when he was a child. But after a while, he breathed evenly.
Listening to Murphy''s even breathing, the high priest realized that the worst she had expected had not happened.
Looking at Murphy''s pretty face, the high priest''s soft face was slightly flushed. She picked up a blanket and put it over Murphy''s body, stroking his face with her right hand, trying to get out of his arms.
But she failed.
The more she broke free, the tighter Murphy held her.
After struggling for a few times, the high priest felt hot and dry all over. It seemed that there were some ants crawling at the bottom of her heart. The taste made her feel strange.
A faint sigh.
The high priest stopped struggling. She lay down with her clothes, took a corner of the blanket with her hand, and covered herself gently.
As if aware, Murphy''s hands relaxed again, gently resting on the high priest''s smooth, plump arms.
The high priest couldn''t help cursing as he bit his lip.
Asshole!
Murphy''s mouth curved slightly, but soon disappeared.
He''s really tired.
