It was a lively and joyous night until around dawn, when everyone took a nap by the bonfire to rest.
The weather is very gloomy and there seems to be signs of snow.
After breakfast, Xu Chen called all the hunters back to the team and told them his arrangements.
When the Ji Cang Clan study workers heard that they were going to stay, they all became very depressed.
But I also know that what Xu Chen said makes sense. After learning what needs to be learned, it is indeed time to return to the tribe for construction.
Everyone wants to live in a spacious and bright courtyard like the Ba people. In order to achieve this goal, you must work hard in winter. If you miss the time, you will have to wait until next autumn and winter.
In addition, this time people from the Ji and Cang tribes participated in the military operation to raid the Gonghuo and Qia tribes. Xu Chen honored his military merits and said that all participants would receive corresponding pottery compensation. In addition, he would also capture the Gonghuo and Qia tribes.
The men left a portion in proportion to help the two tribes work as coolies in construction.
Because neither tribe had built a house before, Xu Chen also took the chiefs of the two tribes and a group of people who were learning to build houses to conduct an inspection in the valley of the Ji tribe. After asking about various situations in detail, he helped build a house.
They selected a building foundation far away from the river and made some simple measurements and planning to help them start the first phase of the project as quickly as possible.
In addition, for farming in the spring, you must also choose a place with water and ventilation to burn wasteland and reclaim the land. After Xu Chen inspected it, he also pointed out a few places where the wasteland can be burned and reclaimed, and asked them to take the time to clean the fire breaks, so that the wasteland burning can be completed before the start of spring.
And the work of clearing debris, digging ditches and building ridges.
In addition to the construction of the lime kiln, Xu Chen also helped them choose a place at the foot of the mountain not far from the building and gave them some simple guidance.
With Xu Chen's arrangements, these construction projects of the Ji clan can begin faster.
Xu Chen from the Cang tribe did not plan to go there, and asked workers from the two tribes to discuss and communicate more and learn from each other.
After arranging all this, Xu Chen was ready to go home.
He had been going back and forth for more than ten days, but he didn't fight much. He was almost constantly on the road. The little fat he had managed to gain was now gone, and he probably lost seven or eight pounds.
But before leaving, Xu Chen and the two chiefs of the Cang tribe of the Ji tribe talked about tribal defense and hoped that they would support the hunters in organizing daily training to be better prepared to protect the tribe.
After witnessing the effects of the training of the Ba tribe and the painful lesson of the Cang tribe almost losing their nest, the chiefs of both tribes said that they would definitely implement Xu Chen's arrangements and fully support the group of tribesmen who had returned from studying to carry out daily rigorous training, and
He also said that if necessary in the future, Xu Chen could recruit these people to help fight the war at any time.
The two clan leaders have already seen that the Wu tribe is completely unreliable now. Since the death of the great witch, the Wu tribe has been in chaos. There are many conflicts within the tribe, and they don't care about the affairs of other tribes at all.
If Xu Chen hadn't brought a group of trained hunters and a group of volunteers from the Uzbek tribe to come to the rescue this time, both tribes would probably have completely lost their homes where they have lived for generations.
Now that the Ba tribe has a great witch, he has become the leader of the six-tribe alliance, and Xu Chen is still trying his best to help other tribes. They are not stupid, and they know that only by uniting closely around the Ba tribe can they really achieve long-term peace and stability in the future.
And Xu Chen is the real core figure of the Ba people.
Only with his approval can the tribe truly live a good life in the future.
After receiving the promises from the two clan leaders, Xu Chen finally let out a long breath secretly in his heart.
As the saying goes, it is better to rush early than to rush late.
If it weren't for the Gonghuo clan's sudden Gonghuo robbery, he really wouldn't have been able to carry out this matter smoothly.
Only when the military alliance is formally formed, will he have strong power to expand his territory and recruit more tribes.
In order to make the military training of the two tribes more strict and standardized, Xu Chen appointed three hunters from each tribe who had participated in the training as chief and deputy officers on the spot, and asked them to build houses and farm while convening tribesmen for active training.
Those who have military orders are resolutely punished and eliminated. For those who train hard and perform well, the tribal alliance will reward them and provide opportunities to further their studies in the Ba tribe. If they succeed in future battles, they will be promoted and receive the title of warrior blessed by the great witch, etc.
award.
Xu Chen's words naturally made the six newly appointed officers excited and excited. They stood straight at attention and beat their chests, saying that they would strictly abide by Xu Chen's orders, train the troops well, and perform their duties for the safety of the Six Nationalities Alliance in the future.
"Very good. I will arrange for them to have their military rank medals and military belt badges made as soon as possible and send them to you. Then they will have their own armor and better bows and arrows. As for the rattan shields and shields used in daily training and use, I will send them to you as soon as possible.
Please do your best to prepare bows and arrows. If you encounter difficulties during training, you can always arrange for someone to go to the Ba tribe for help. I hope that the Six Tribes Alliance will become stronger because of you. The Great Witch will also be gratified and proud of your bravery and will be proud of your bravery.
Please pray for blessings!"
After Xu Chen encouraged the six people by patting each other on the shoulders, he took the other hunters who had packed their luggage, packed dozens of women and more than a hundred captives, bid farewell to the Ji and Wu tribes, and embarked on the road home.
Forming a military alliance through military training is the most important plan for his next development.
However, he did not want to be too strong about this matter, but hoped that these tribes would feel an urgency and need from this incident and actively support military training and military unified operations.
In the end, military training will lead to a qualitative change in the role of men, from a simple hunting tool to a powerful machine for conquering the world. In the future, as the scope of conquest becomes larger and larger, more and more trophies will be obtained. In the tribe,
If this happens, the power will become stronger and stronger, and eventually this simple tribal relationship based on food, clothing, clothing, and blood ties will be completely eliminated, and a more complex social structure will be formed.
Because there will be more and more war mobilizations in the future, the conflict between tribes for power will become more and more serious. Xu Chen does not want this plan to subvert power to be seen through by several clan leaders and cause resistance.
Although at present, the simple and simple wisdom of primitive people is not enough to see that far.
But be prepared for a rainy day and use this understatement to slowly lay out the plan, at least it will not cause more resistance and uneasiness.
Otherwise, they will ask the two tribes to do what they want, and they must be trained to obey the instructions, etc. Even if the other tribes can comply with the instructions, there is no guarantee that they will not have a mentality of subordination.
Prestige and reputation are slowly accumulated in life.
His reputation is sufficient now, but his prestige is far from enough.
Because the Ba tribe does not have enough strength to make all tribes surrender.
They only temporarily obeyed the spiritual beliefs of the great witch, and were far from complete trust and submission.
However, the success of this raid on the Fire Tribe has greatly increased his personal prestige. Not only the hunters of the six tribes who participated in the raid all believed in and respected him, but now that he has returned from victory, the Ji Tribe and the Cang Tribe can say
Already obeyed his words.
This step was very important. He didn't want to destroy the prestige he had finally built up because of military training.
…
There were snow particles in the whistling cold wind, and it hurt a little when it hit my face.
The long team walked slowly along a rugged mountain road among the vast mountains covered with virgin forests.
Spearmen armed with spears, vine shields and vine armor were leading the way forward and guarding the formation, while archers wearing leather armor were scattered around on guard.
The three flags rolled and fluttered in the howling cold wind and snow particles.
The melodious and exciting horn sounds echoed from time to time in the mountains and river valleys, and loud laughter occasionally sounded from the team.
The captured men of the Gonghuo and Qia tribes hid their heads and moved forward amidst loud scoldings, feeling depressed, while a group of abducted young women were so frightened that they cried all the way.
The people of the Uzbek Alliance were so ungrateful that they even attacked their lair while they were attacking the Cang people, and even the great witch was captured.
No one knows what kind of ending awaits them.
Xu Chen was wrapped in a thick piece of colorful tiger skin, which was one of the few trophies collected from the Gonghuo tribe.
Although it was cold wind and snow, it could not dissipate the excitement and passion in his heart.
After more than a year of playing solo, he finally made it out of the Novice Village for the first time, and he won a big victory, successfully completing the first tribal network upgrade task.
This was his first real trip after traveling across time. From the Ba tribe to the Gonghuo tribe, he traveled over mountains and ridges along the way. The distance was more than 100 kilometers, which was equivalent to a cross-county activity in later generations.
The biggest gain was not that he conquered the Gonghuo tribe and gained a working population of hundreds of people, but that he finally had a truly intuitive understanding of this area for the first time.
The Gonghuo tribe, which the Wu tribe has always been very afraid of, is not as powerful as imagined.
This also gave him a target and target that he could refer to for the strength of other tribes downstream.
Although he only captured the Gonghuo tribe's home base, and when he returned, he also captured the Qia tribe's home base. There are seven or eight primitive tribes of various sizes that obey the Gonghuo tribe along the lower reaches of the river and in the basin, but he has not yet made contact with them.
, but in the process of communicating with the great shaman and chief of the Gonghuo tribe, I learned that I also have a general understanding of the positions and strengths of those tribes.
On the whole, the Gonghuo Tribe Alliance is indeed much stronger than the Ba Tribe Alliance, with nearly half the population. This is why the Wu Tribe has always been afraid of the downstream tribes.
However, this kind of marriage and trading alliance established purely on the prestige of witches does not have much military significance.
Just like the Wu tribe, they have no right to recruit other tribes to participate in a territorial battle with the Gonghuo tribe.
The same is true for the Gonghuo tribe. They do not have the power to summon their affiliated tribes to launch a strong attack on the Wu tribe.
