Although Mahatma Gandhi was a peace-loving leader with the lowest war-mongering tendency in the entire game, he was also a complete "nuclear maniac," launching nuclear attacks far more often than other national leaders.

Wang Jian couldn't understand this setting at first. After spending 100 points to ask the system, he received an explanation.

Apparently, in the original Civilization game, each leader had an "aggression index," a value from 1 to 10, with higher values indicating greater aggressiveness.

To pay homage to Gandhi, the founder of "non-violent non-cooperation," the production team set his aggression index to the lowest value of 1, meaning he would almost never wage war against any country.

However, there was a bug in the game: when a player adopted a democratic government, the aggression index would automatically decrease by 2 points. Since Gandhi's aggression index was 1, reducing it by 2 would result in -1. But the game didn't have a -1 setting, so the number would instantly explode, looping back to the highest value of 255. Gandhi, from a peaceful leader, suddenly became a "war maniac."

Moreover, democracy and nuclear weapons were located close to each other on the technology tree. So, after entering democracy, Gandhi could quickly develop nuclear weapons and immediately launch a full-scale offensive, starting to drop nuclear bombs all over the world, determined to bring nuclear peace to the world. His titles of "nuclear maniac" and "messenger of nuclear peace" became widely circulated among players.

This bug was naturally fixed later, but the officials also found it quite amusing and made it an Easter egg, which has been inherited and preserved in subsequent games.

For example, in Civilization V, although Gandhi was better than other leaders at using peaceful means such as diplomacy, his "nuclear weapon index" was also the highest among the leaders, set at 12 (the index for the other three leaders who were more inclined to use nuclear weapons was 8, and the index for most leaders was 4-6). Therefore, compared to conventional armies, Gandhi still preferred launching nuclear attacks.

However, nuclear bombs require the technology of "nuclear fission" to be researched in the atomic era, so Tuo Yi will definitely not see Gandhi's heroic posture of dropping nuclear bombs in this game.

Although his main forces are in the rear and the capital has no troops to defend it, Tuo Yi is not worried, because several city-states are between the Sacred Cow Kingdom and him, and he is the suzerain of these city-states. Using city-state soldiers to attack might not be very reliable, like when he attacked the Sakura Kingdom just now, the soldiers from Lisbon wandered around for a long time and then ran back.

But defense should be more than enough. If the Sacred Cow Kingdom wants to attack, it will definitely be blocked by the city-states along the way if it goes by land. Attacking by sea... the AI on the Settler difficulty level is definitely not that smart.

Moreover, Tuo Yi built ancient city walls for the capital as a precaution when he was preparing for war.

Next turn.

A world wonder has been built!

Next to the circus tent in the suburbs, a building resembling a bird's nest is rapidly erected. The camera rotates to show the crisscrossing golden farmland on the left, the Apadana Palace with its gushing fountains and golden splendor in the back, the ancient city of Xi'an surrounded by city walls and carved beams and painted rafters by the sea in the distance, and the fishing boats swaying slightly with the waves on the sea, as well as the swimming fish that appear and disappear in the seabed.

The scenery of many civilizations is integrated together, but it seems incomparably harmonious. Under the golden sunset, it is even more beautiful. Tuo Yi's eyes lit up, and he took a screenshot with a click.

When the Roman Colosseum was about to be completed, there was a burst of noisy cheers, as if fearless warriors were fighting fiercely with ferocious lions inside, and the audience was watching the arena with enthusiasm, which made people can't help but imagine the most glorious and prosperous era of the Roman civilization.

The Colosseum was built by the emperors of ancient Rome to encourage triumphant generals and soldiers and to praise the great empire. According to historians, the Romans held a 100-day celebration when the Colosseum was completed and slaughtered 9,000 animals.

"As long as the Colosseum stands, Rome shall stand; when the Colosseum falls, Rome shall fall; when Rome falls, the whole world will collapse. - Saint Peter"

"Well, let's continue to build a wonder. Let's build a Colossus next to the port!"

Tuo Yi's soldiers took boats and went all the way up along the coast, directly raiding the Sacred Cow Kingdom's Calcutta.

Suddenly, he discovered several units he had never seen before: "What are these, war elephants?"

The Sacred Cow Kingdom's war elephants have large and sturdy bodies and wear golden armor, making them look daunting. A large basket is fixed on its back, with several soldiers wearing turbans and throwing spears sitting inside.

After Tuo Yi's Divine Dragon Guards landed, the war elephant neighed, swayed its trunk, and rushed over with heavy steps, trying to trample the swordsmen under its feet.

However, the Divine Dragon Guards have been upgraded to level 3, with extremely high attack power. A single swing of the sword will cut the war elephant into a sliver of health.

After all, this is a game. It's not that the appearance is impressive, and the combat power is strong. It's still about attributes.

In fact, it was not only the Sacred Cow Kingdom that used elephants in combat. The Shang Dynasty of China also incorporated elephants into the army. The war elephants, with their thick skin and unstoppable momentum, can be called ancient tanks.

The Battle of XSBN in the Anti-Sakura War was the last magnificent curtain call for the war elephant unit. It is said that the battle was extremely fierce, and the sound of guns, fighting, and elephant roars shook the sky. The Sakura devils threw more than 70 corpses into the river, and all of China's 80 war elephants were shot down, and the blood dyed the river red.

After the battle, people dug a large pit with a length and width of more than 20 meters by the river and solemnly buried the fallen war elephants. A monument was also erected on the pit: Tomb of a Hundred Elephants, to commemorate their sacrifice.

Tuo Yi originally thought that he was unstoppable now, but the resistance of the Sacred Cow Kingdom was much more tenacious than he imagined, constantly creating troops. The two nearby city-states with the Sacred Cow Kingdom as their suzerain also sent troops to support them, and the Golden Yuan Kingdom even joined the crusade against him after repeated condemnations.

Tuo Yi lost a crossbowman, and other units were also low on health in the battle. He had to let his troops withdraw to rest and recuperate some health before launching an attack again.

Each turn, he also had to arrange the construction content for the cities he occupied. Unknowingly, the time for one turn was prolonged.

Finally, the crossbowmen and artillery captured the last city of the Sacred Cow Kingdom.

Although Gandhi lost, his momentum was not weak at all. He showed a contemptuous look and raised his head proudly: "You can bind me, torture me, and even destroy my body, but you can never imprison my mind."

In the process of exploring other continents by paddle boats across the sea, he discovered the Gallic civilization that he had not contacted before, and soon began to condemn him: "The whole world should know your sins. (Condemn you) (They think you are a warmonger.)"

Tuo Yi was very upset: "Humph, I'm fighting Gandhi, and you still have to point fingers? After I clean up the Golden Yuan Kingdom, I will destroy you with my navy!"

One turn.

Another turn.

New wonders are constantly being completed, and Tuo Yi's military power is also constantly growing.

After using China's invincible naval fleet to occupy the last capital of the Gallic civilization, the victory interface appeared.

Tuo Yi comfortably stretched his waist and looked at the whitening sky outside the window. Suddenly, his head was a little dazed: "What, is it dawn already?"

I clearly only played a few turns!
