After the end of the Greek Polish war, the Yalun city-state established the Yalun alliance to dominate the sea, and there were constant conflicts with the kibata alliance established by the city-state of kibara. There were more and more frictions and battles, and the scale was also growing.

In the eyes of Amun, who was once a general and commander-in-chief of the Egyptian empire, the war on the hitton peninsula was somewhat funny, sometimes it was just like a competitive game. Although war always accompanies casualties, the casualty rate of city-state conflicts here is much smaller than that of other countries on Tianshu continent, and surrender is like a common meal.

The hitton Peninsula lacks a large area of open plains, and the scale of the city states is relatively small. Therefore, the chariot formation popular among the mainland countries is very rare here. The city-state army is mainly composed of infantry. There are also heavy cavalry, but the cavalry equipment is more expensive, basically composed of aristocratic warriors, they are also the main force to charge in the battle, followed by a swarm of infantry.

In the small-scale battle between the city states, the attack and killing of noble warriors and individual combat often become the main factors determining the victory or defeat, and the momentum of both sides also determines the morale. Once the front line breaks up, in most cases, they will not fight to the death, but will choose to surrender in a very opportunistic way, and the winning party will not kill all of them.

This kind of battle is very much like the struggle in the heroic age in mythology and legend. The direction of failure is the surrender of the victorious party. After a period of time, there will be new conflicts when the covenant changes or the strength balance of the city states changes. Therefore, the situation among the city states on the hitton peninsula is very chaotic, and the sphere of influence controlled by the kibata alliance and the Yalun alliance is also constantly changing.

How can such a military organization defeat the invasion of Boz army? In fact, during the invasion of Boz, many states surrendered. It was Yalun and kibata united with the city states to fight a protracted war of attrition with the troops of Boz who had been attacking far away. The key to success or failure is the powerful navy of Yalun city state and the well-trained kibata soldiers. The Yalun people are proficient in sea warfare, and the kibata Samurai army has heavy battle array.

After the army of Boz retreated, the hitton Peninsula fell into a low-intensity but frequent civil war, which was also the most severe period of social stratification. The residents in the city states of hitton are complex, mainly including nobles and citizens. Of course, nobles also enjoy citizenship. The so-called citizens and civilians or free people are not a concept, but adult men who enjoy the political rights of the city-state.

During the period of city-state alliance, more and more free people lost their land and civil rights for various reasons. In order to make a living, these freedmen did not have many choices. They went to work as mercenaries in times of war. Whoever gave the money would fight for whoever he was fighting against. In this case, many of the city-state war is only to conquer or surrender, rather than fight to death.

When there was no war, the freedmen who had lost their land often did nothing and often went to various businesses or farms to do short-term jobs. There are many such people outside the Grange where Amun lives.

Amun came to the Avenue outside the vineyard early in the morning. He called out, "people who have nothing to do, who can help me finish my work in the vineyard?"

Soon someone gathered around and asked, "do you want to hire a part-time worker? How much is it paid?"

Amun held out a finger and said a generous and surprising reward: "work until sunset, each person pays a silver coin."

A lot of people went into the vineyard happily and began to work. When the sun was getting better, Amun was still standing at the gate of the vineyard to hire someone, and someone came to ask for wages. He still offered a silver coin, and more people went into the vineyard to get busy. At noon, Amun was still standing in front of the door to hire people, and workers kept coming into the vineyard. Until the afternoon, Amun was still standing in front of the door, and the wage was still a silver coin.

There was a busy scene in the vineyard. When the sun went down, the workers came out one after another. Amun was still standing at the door, his feet had not moved since sunrise, and he paid a silver coin to every hired worker who came out of the vineyard.

The workers who had entered the vineyard early in the morning exclaimed, "this is not fair! We worked all day in the hot sun, but the workers who came in the afternoon only worked for a while. Why are they all paid the same

Amun replied, "because I promised them that the salary is a silver coin, and I will keep my promise."

In the morning, the workers who came into the garden were discontented and exclaimed, "but we have done much more work than them, and we deserve more pay."

Amun said, "but you also promised me that the reward is a silver coin, and you should keep your promise."

Some people still want to argue. At this time, the majestic medanzo rode up from the road on a tall horse. Seeing that the posture was not good, everyone got the wages and quickly dispersed. Mendanzo got off his horse and saluted Amun. Amun said with a smile, "medanzo, you've come just in time, or I'm afraid I'll be beaten. Do you think I did it right

Medanzo blinked his eyes and said, "my God, what you have just said is absolutely correct, but no farmer will do so. What is your purpose?"

However, Amun was lost in thought. After a while, he replied, "I just show the simple truth in a little complicated things to see how people will react.""You didn't do anything wrong by giving these idle people a job that was far more rewarding than they deserved, and expressing your commitment to your commitment and your generosity to the workers," madanzo said

Amun said with a smile: "but I didn't do anything right. Things in the world have their own principles and human nature has its own characteristics. If I come back tomorrow morning, I'm afraid I can't hire anyone."

Amun is right as expected. He will be a * *. If you like this work, you are welcome to start( qidian.com )Your support is my biggest motivation to vote for recommendation and monthly tickets. )
