Although Xu Chen said it lightly, it only took fifty knights and two days to conquer another tribe with a powerful witch, which made them even more shocked and awed by His Majesty the Witch King.
When he first conquered the Yu Gong clan, His Majesty the Witch King prepared for five days and mobilized nearly two hundred people, including dozens of Mao Tun clan members.
Although the Yugong clan failed quickly in that war, they still persisted for a while. If Xu Chen hadn't led the Maotun clan to sneak into the cave and capture the shaman, women and children, the battle would not have ended too quickly.
As the sun sets, the coalition forces may suffer heavy casualties.
But this time His Majesty the Witch King faced a powerful tribe that also had a powerful witch and hundreds of people. It only took two days, and the other party surrendered directly without any resistance.
The Ba tribe has added a great witch and a powerful alliance tribe.
This has also made the strength of the Bam League greatly enhanced again.
In other words, on the Mother's Day in March, there will be one more tribe that submits to the guidance of the great witch, and the witches who discuss the matter will also have one more member, bringing the number to six, plus the guests.
Invited are the great shaman of the poor tribe, the great shaman of the Tage tribe who may also attend in the future, and another known great shaman of the Cicha tribe downstream. In the near future, the number of great witches will reach nine.
And this shouldn't be the end yet.
Because there are unknown tribes near the Mammoth River downstream of the Cicha tribe. In addition, there are also strange tribes to the west of the Tage tribe. As for whether there are strange tribes in other places, we don’t know, but based on how the Ji tribe discovered the Dai tribe, we can
It can be seen that the possibility of discovering more strange tribes around the Gonghuo Basin is very high.
According to the strength of His Majesty the Witch King, all tribes discovered in the future will surrender or have good relations with the Ba League, either as allies or as friendly neighbors.
A group of Yugong clan officers looked at each other with excitement, while the witch's heart was beating wildly and she couldn't hold it back.
If His Majesty the Witch King continues to expand like this, it is unknown how many areas and tribes he will control in the future, and the number of witches participating in the discussion is unimaginable. However, there will inevitably be various competitions between these tribes and witches. If the Yu Gong clan does not
Seize this opportunity as soon as possible and follow the arrangements and development speed of His Majesty the Witch King. You will definitely be surpassed by other tribes in the future, and you will be looked down upon or even despised in the Great Witch Council.
Just like the little witch of the Five Ghost Tribe is currently the least valued by others, because she is too weak and immature, and cannot bear the responsibilities that a witch should have. Naturally, she cannot speak during meetings.
Nowadays, apart from the great witch, the most respected person is the old witch of the Gonghuo tribe, followed by her because she lost once, so she can’t straighten her waist. Regardless of her age and wisdom or her understanding of witchcraft blessings, songs and dances,
She is not as good as the Gonghuo Witch.
But she had the same idea as the little witch of the Wu tribe. As more and more tribes had great witches, the competition for status and right to speak became more and more intense, and she did not want to be compared to other great witches.
The only way to maintain the status of a great witch is to vigorously build and develop the tribe and strive to complete the guidance and plans of His Majesty the Witch King.
Only the stronger and richer the alliance tribe is, the more respect it will gain among the witches.
"Things about the Pi tribe will be announced on Mother's Day this time. In addition, I just came from the Gonghuo tribe. The great witch Gonghuo is very ill. I'm afraid a new witch will be elected soon. Please tell me about this."
It’s good to know for now. The purpose of my inspection this time is to see the spring planting and construction status of each tribe, and to inspect the road construction status. In addition, I also want to visit the Mongolian people..."
When Xu Chen said this, he turned to look at the three Yu Gong clan officers and asked: "Is the path you were asked to explore last time clear?"
An officer wearing leather armor with a lieutenant badge quickly clasped his fists and said, "I've already inquired about it!"
"Well, that's good. Tomorrow you arrange for a few people to serve as guides and follow me to the Mongols. Plan out this road first. When you have time, gather the tribes to slowly start construction. This road must be built this winter.
When the time comes, I will arrange for someone to teach you how to build a car!"
"Wow!" A group of people exclaimed excitedly.
Xu Chen smiled and nodded and said: "I could have brought the craftsmen this time, but you don't have a way, and it's useless to learn them. I'll keep the craftsmen in the Five Ghost Clan. If you want to learn, you can arrange a few in advance.
In the past, I could not only learn to be a carpenter, but also a mason."
The witch's eyes instantly lit up, and the clan leader and a group of leading officers also became excited and noisy. Everyone expressed that they would arrange for people to study in the Five Ghost Clan as soon as possible.
"You can arrange this matter yourself, but you have to learn carpentry and masonry, and you need to bring your own food. In addition, you have to prepare supplies to buy carpenter and masonry tools!" Xu Chen reminded.
"Zhigazhiga!" The witch and a group of clan leaders nodded.
After staying with the Yu Gong clan for a day, inspecting their farmland farming and other construction conditions, and making some instructions and arrangements for the farmland management site, Xu Chen led a group of people to set off to inspect other tribes, accompanied by more Yu
An officer of the duke and three hunters accompanied him on horseback.
At last year's Wu Zhu Conference, Xu Chen had already arranged for each tribe to speed up the preliminary exploration work of building roads between tribes after they returned.
Because the development of the Jiangnan Yugong Clan is one year late, the construction of houses has not yet been completed, so Xu Chen plans to build the road a year later. However, this time, it seems that the development speed of the Yugong Clan exceeds his imagination.
The pace of building houses and farming has almost caught up with the Gonghuo tribe. In order for each tribe to develop faster, road construction projects can also be planned and arranged in advance, so that there is no need to make another trip.
In the next few days, Xu Chen, led by several hunters from the Yu Gong clan, ran through all the tribes belonging to the Yu Gong Alliance. After having horses, he could move much faster, and he could hunt while playing.
Explore and plan the route, and keep leaving various planning marks along the way. When the time comes, the Yugong clan will arrange for hunters to supervise the tribes along the way to slowly build it.
As for the tools, Xu Chen, like the Gonghuo Alliance, would give out a batch of tools with half a loan and half a reward to stimulate these tribes to build the roads as soon as possible.
At present, these tribes are too poor. He must first subsidize and pay as much as possible to get these tribes out of the state of lack of food, clothing, hunger and cold as soon as possible, so that these investments can be recovered in the future.
The Mongolian people are located in the southernmost part of the Yugong Alliance.
There is a hot spring near the habitat that is steaming all day long. The steaming heat spreads for thousands of meters and covers half of the mountain. Due to the influence of the hot spring, the valley is covered with flowers and green grass even in the cold winter. Now that spring has begun, it is even more...
There are many exotic flowers and plants, and half of the valley is like a fairyland.
Regarding Xu Chen's sudden visit, the Mongolian people were extremely excited. The whole clan, old and young, fell to the ground to greet him, calling for His Majesty the Witch King to welcome him all the way to the newly built wooden house to settle down.
There are many rocks and little soil near the Mongolian people, and the river valley is relatively narrow. The caves and hot springs where they used to live are relatively flat. Because it is inconvenient to make mud bricks, the Mongolian people built wooden houses near the hot springs.
Because of the influence of hot springs, the Mongolian people have a unique habitat that is not afraid of the cold in winter.
However, there are gains and losses. The terrain near Wenquan Ridge is complex, rocky and woody, and the land reclamation and farming are far inferior to other tribes. Therefore, so far, more than 100 acres of farmland have been reclaimed among the hillside woodlands, scattered here and there.
Within two miles of the hot spring.
Moreover, the food grown by the Mongolian people is not oats, wild beans and other miscellaneous grains that are most widely grown by other tribes near riverbanks, but a kind of fruit crop.
Xu Chen had seen this plant in the mountains near the Ba people. He also ate it when he and Ye went looking for milk fruit for the first time. It is a large-leaf weed like a clivia, with a stem over one meter high in the middle and a long stem growing on it.
It has a corn-like ear, and the kernels on the ear are food. When mature, they contain a lot of starch. You can eat it after breaking the hard shell on the outside. However, the taste is not very good, it is very sticky, and it also has an astringent taste.
Before Xu Chen traveled through time, this kind of plant seeds had always been collected by women of the Ba ethnic group, but the shells were difficult to handle, so they ate less of them. Later, after they moved down the mountain to build houses and start farming, this kind of food was no longer available.
No one has eaten it.
In Xu Chen's opinion, this plant is more of a tropical crop, and because of the special climate affected by the hot springs near the Mongolian people, this plant grows very tall, and Mongolian women have always collected a large amount of this food to maintain the survival of the tribe.
However, the seeds of this plant are sparse, making collection troublesome and time-consuming to process.
When Xu Chen inspected the farmland, he found out that before eating, the Mongolian people put the dried seeds in hot springs and soaked them for a day or two. The skins would expand and crack, and then they would be wrapped in animal skins and beaten.
The shell can be separated, then crushed with stones and shaped into cakes, baked and eaten.
But nowadays, porridge is cooked directly in clay pots, and it is said to taste pretty good.
After listening to the explanation, Xu Chen couldn't help but marvel at the magic of nature.
If you rely on mountains to eat mountains, you must rely on water to eat water. If you rely on hot springs, you must also eat hot springs.
The climate and temperature of this place are suitable for the growth of this kind of plant. The Mongolian people can harvest a lot every year simply by clearing land and sowing seeds. Moreover, relying on hot springs can also facilitate food processing. It is indeed a special way of survival.
