The game can only have up to 20 teammates (not 22), all of which can be 5500 soldiers.
I believe many people will ask, how many times have you reshaped the world? I can tell you that it has only been rebuilt eight times. Yes, eight times later, 18 5500 soldiers were recruited. The method is simple, but the early stage is more troublesome.
First of all, it's best to start from sons of liberty (everything else is ok, but take one more step), and then when you have some capital, leave a teammate in each city. There are seven people at the beginning of sons of liberty. You can divide them into seven cities at once, and then reshape the world (don't reposition the team, or the tragedy will be redistributed to the cities. In this way, every time you reshape the world, you can quickly understand which NPCs are in pubs in seven cities. Don't bother running around, just run once in the beginning. The rest is luck. I was lucky enough to recruit four 5500 soldiers and those 5000 legendary soldiers from 10 city at one time.
Of course, other characters can also start. Just spend more money to recruit those 700 NPCs in the early stage and then distribute them to various cities. In the later stage, it is very convenient to find someone when there are more people. It only takes 5 minutes to browse the pubs in all cities (many of them are looking at maps). Finally, it is found that the two cities on the rightmost hill of the map seem to be unable to pass, NPC is blocked at the foot of the mountain, and the air wall blocks the road. Finally, great efforts should be made to deal with (expel) those NPCs that were sent in the first place. Yes, let them die, strip them of all their clothes and give them only a stick to fight the hostile NPC. Upon completion, they will make room to recruit 5500 soldiers.
