Xu Chen had never supported the raft, but he still rowed the raft like a small catamaran fishing boat that is common in rural areas, and could carry it in the river with a bamboo pole.

Xu Chen drove two people on the raft down, feeling that the raft was much lighter, and then gently pushed the dock with the wooden pole, and the raft slowly floated to the center with the bumpy river water.

“Wow~”

Hundreds of people on the shore exclaimed almost at the same time.

The savages standing on the raft were all shaking and howling. There was even a guy standing too far to the edge and fell into the water. Then, with a laugh, he quickly climbed back to the shore to continue shaking the water.

The dock location was a return water bay area chosen by Xu Chen at that time. It was more than ten meters away from the main river channel and the flowing water was relatively slow, which was just suitable for practice here.

Xu Chen used a wooden pole to support the raft and went back and forth near the dock several times, and slowly found a slight feeling of raising a boat, and his movements gradually became smoother. He supported the left a few times, supported the right a few times, supported the front a few times, and then walked to the back a little.

Anyway, under his back and forth, the raft will move in the direction he wants.

Many people on the shore slowly saw a little bit of fame, and some even felt that they had understood it.

The twin little witch looked at the boy in shorts rowing with admiration, her eyes full of little stars, and she could no longer tolerate other groups of bare-ass wild men.

As for the group of tribesmen led by Lei, Xu Chen was even more shocked. They all opened their mouths and saw them being so obsessed.

"You guys come and try it too. Remember to keep your movements steady and don't fall down!"

Xu Chen asked the people on the shore to throw up a few long wooden poles, and asked the men on the raft to each of them to take one, and then guided them to start learning to ride a boat.

This time, going to the Gonghuo Clan was not only a successor conquest mission, but it was actually a rare spring outing.

The most important thing is that after this time, he will most likely not take this path when he goes to the Gonghuo tribe next time, so he needs to teach the Ji tribe and the Cang tribe as soon as possible to learn to use the river to communicate with the downstream tribes.

Before the sharp and sturdy metal tools were successfully developed, rafts should become an important means of transportation for these primitive tribes to travel for a long time.

Truly building a strong riverboat is not only a matter of tools, but also a shipbuilding technology that he has never been exposed to.

Even if it is a common small river boat in rural areas, he has only seen it rowing, but he has never seen anyone do it with his own eyes.

Shipbuilding is a separate woodworking technique, which is completely different from the most common woodworking, which is the most common woodworking. It is passed down from generation to generation and is a ancestral craft certified by the court. Many things are closely related.

Therefore, even if you have tools, it is not easy to make a ship. Now he is the best carpenter among humans, but he can only chop a rough concave and convex tenon with a stone axe. As for shipbuilding, it is an advanced skill, and needs to be upgraded from sawing wood boards to make furniture.

If you want to successfully advance to Shipbuilding, you have to successfully open Bronze Technology.

Bronze, there is only copper right now...

Alas, this fucking dog era!

Xu Chen stood on the raft, feeling the cold river water constantly wet his feet, and couldn't help but sigh.

After going to Gonghuo Clan this time, he planned to go down the Ji Cang River to the near the entrance of the river to observe the situation.

As long as you are familiar with the environment and find a suitable stopping location, build a raft with the Ba people and Wu people down the river, you will probably reach the Gonghuo tribe in less than a day.

In other words, at that time, whether from the Ji clan Cang clan or the Ba clan Wu clan, both sides could reach the Gonghuo clan within one day, which would greatly save traffic time.

Of course, if you go quickly, you may not be able to go back so quickly. At that time, whether you are raising a boat or walking, you need to arrange a plan according to the actual situation.

But at least this saves half of the time.

Now there are horses by land and rafts by water. As long as these two are developed, within ten years, he believes that he can clearly find out the general situation of this river basin and find a suitable place to build a city and become king.

...

Another day later.

Five rafts formed a long wooden raft. Under the control of a group of naked savages, they set out from the Cang tribe pier, followed the clear and turbulent Ji Cang River, and suddenly disappeared with the sound of ghosts and wolves howling.

These rafts have been further modified. They are not only bigger and stronger, but also have many ropes around them. If they encounter severe bumps, they can grab the rope and stabilize their body. Even if they fall into the water, they can throw out the rope for rescue.

Xu Chen also underestimated the courage and adventurous spirit of these primitive savages.

Since they became familiar with the raft, they seemed to have no word for fear in their hearts.

Those who are rushing to ride a raft.

However, in the end, Xu Chen carefully selected thirty people, most of whom were from the Ji tribe and the Cang tribe.

Because these two tribes are most familiar with Ji Cang River, they know where the most stones are dozens of miles downstream, the narrowest and most dangerous rivers are. Moreover, they have lived by this river since they were young, and hunted on both sides of the river all year round, and the water quality is relatively good.

It is impossible to train sufficiently. Yesterday, I spent a whole day making this group of people familiar with the simple operation of the raft, and most of them would tinker back and forth in a smooth place.

There is another saying that if there are too many shipmen, it is easy to capsize. A group of people rowing together with wooden poles. You can imagine how chaotic it is.

Fortunately, these hunters have been briefly trained for several months and have good discipline. Therefore, Xu Chen, the raft team this time, was still in formation according to the usual training methods. A training officer of the Cang tribe was responsible for each raft. Each raft was arranged for a long time. After training for half a day according to the usual training methods, he finally looked a little bit after capsizing and falling into the water countless times.

However, training and actual combat are definitely huge differences.

This section of river near the Cang tribe is quite flat, and is located downstream near the Golden Estuary of Yinlong Gorge. The nearby rivers are complex and turbulent, and there are many large stones in the river. That is the time to truly test courage and luck.

As for the fact that strength does not exist, Xu Chen did not consider this.

During training, I knew that he gave the raft a name called Fengdai.

He hoped that these savages would be well-behaved enough to get up after turning over.

After all, this is a fast turn and a quick climb to the raft.

"Set off!"

Seeing the five rafts disappearing on the curved river beach downstream like long dragons hitting water, Xu Chen also issued an order to set off.

"Woo~Woo~Woo~Woo~~"

The melodious sound of the horn sounded.

"Woo~Woo~Woo~Woo~~"

The trumpeters of the six clans also blew the bark horns one after another, and the six well-trained teams were arranged neatly, kicking and stomping downstream along the river beach.

The Qinglong Banner and the King Banner are in front, while the Six Clan Banners are in back.

Six horses of all sizes were carrying one person, mixed with the team and tapped.

Lei followed the team with his tribe members and several technicians who were proficient in house repair and farming.

The flags are flying in the wind, and the sound of trumpets is coming one after another.

As the Cang tribe's women, children, and young, the long line gradually drifted away and finally slowly disappeared between the rivers and canyons with wild flowers everywhere downstream.

From the Cang tribe to the Cha tribe, the distance is more than fifty miles. A large arc is drawn along the east bank of the Jicang River, and the valleys are winding and passing through Yinlong Gorge and seven or eight small streams and valleys.

The road is not difficult to walk, it is just a little far and it takes a whole day to walk.

When the two tribes came and went, they needed to rest in each other's tribe for a night before returning.

However, given that the relationship between the two major tribal alliances is not very good, this kind of interaction is not frequent.

The Cha tribe has only more than one hundred people, and can only be considered a small and medium-sized tribe. The adult male is about fifty years old. Therefore, even if it is not friendly to the Cang tribe, given the strength of the Cang tribe, it does not dare to provoke it on weekdays. Because the Cang tribe is afraid of the strength of the Gonghuo tribe, which is not too far from the Cha tribe, it does not dare to bully the Cha tribe. Therefore, the two tribes are in peace on weekdays. Apart from the occasional minor friction, they are basically peaceful.

But since the Cang tribe got pottery from the Ba tribe, this kind of interaction has gradually become frequent.

The Cang tribe had a certain business mind and traded the pottery and linen exchanged from the Ba tribe to the Cha tribe twice, and the Cha tribe added two more animal skins to the Gonghuo tribe.

The primitive tribes lack wealth, and this act of reselling and plundering wealth at high prices is destined to be unable to last long. Not only can the high price of the Clan, but the Gonghuo tribe is even more infuriating.

The pottery is exquisite, beautiful and practical. Not only is it expensive, it is easy to break. I finally changed a few pieces of pottery, but before it was warmed up like a baby, there was only a small pottery jar left.

The Gonghuo tribe went to question the Cha tribe for compensation, but the Cha tribe had no choice but to rob it.

As a result, the first large-scale friction and force between the two tribes broke out, and then the Gonghuo tribe, which coveted pottery and linen, also joined in, which eventually led to the first large-scale battle between the two alliance tribes in decades.

Nowadays, a large number of men from both tribes are still stranded in the six tribe alliance as coolies to receive labor reform.

The beginning of spring is also the time when the yellow and yellow are not connected, and food is extremely scarce.

A group of women, children, young and old in the Cha tribe finally saved money to compensate the Cang tribe after enduring the cold winter, and then hungry every day in spring.

If there are not enough men, women will come and make up.

The tribe did not have enough strong hunters to hunt, and in order not to get hungry, all the women and children of the Cha tribe went on a battle to find food everywhere.

Wild vegetables, sprouts, fish and shrimps, turtles, snakes, insects, etc., as long as they can be eaten, they will not let go of them, especially a group of children, just like a group of wild children of the Ba tribe when Xu Chen first traveled through time. They were either looking for food or on the way to find food all day long.

On this day, the spring sun is warm, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

Several half-lazi teenagers and a group of bare-butt children of five, six, seven or eight years old were catching fish and shrimps in the shallow water of the river beach near their habitat. Suddenly, a huge thing came down the middle of the upper river, and you could hear the shouts of roaring.

“Wow!”

A group of children were stunned for a moment.

After a brief observation, he scattered and no longer wanted the vine basket or the broken fishing net. He also lost the fish and shrimps that were skewed into a bunch, and ran to the river bank with ghosts and wolves howling.

"Wow, come to chaga!"

On the raft in the river, I looked at the bare-butt children running on the river bank from afar. A group of wild men with bare butts were wet and cheered at the same time.

Fast, it's too fast. From the Cang tribe, the sun just rose, and now the sun has risen two wooden poles and has actually reached the Cha tribe.

It takes at least nearly a day to walk along the river beach on weekdays.

"Yew~~"

"Quick, hold on~"

"Puga puga~"
