Chapter 782: Mission, colonization and assimilation in North America, three strongholds on the west coast
The sacred conversion ceremony lasted for two full days. More than a dozen preaching priests worked day and night to convert more than 3,000 people from the entire Yolem tribe into believers of the main god.
Soon, the wood carving of the emblem of the main god was erected in the square in the center of the tribe. The simple altar was also built and became a place for morning and evening prayers. The preaching priest Songbird was ambitious and wanted to build it with his own hands in this large tribe in the northern continent.
Build the first one, the temple of the main god!
The conversion of the Yorem tribe was initially completed, and several leaders of the kingdom also gathered in the chief's longhouse to discuss the next step of the plan.
Everyone gathered together and got to know each other. Zuvalo and Mickey, the second-level divine priests, are the captains and deputy captains of the kingdom’s fleet, and have the power to make decisions about fleet affairs. Songbird, the second-level evangelist priest, is the leader of the kingdom in the north.
In the mainland, the highest-ranking missionary priest now actually controls the Yorem tribe.

Further down, the warrior leader of the fleet, the fourth-level senior warrior Chakapu. This is a typical Prepecha name, which means "hard stone" and can also be called "stone solid". Finally,
He is the leader of the merchant fleet, an official from Qincongcan, Kuluchaxi. This is also the name of Prepecha, which means "very big fish" and is also called "Kuyu".
Among the five people, the first three are the kingdom priests, followed by the warrior representatives, and finally the royal capital officials. This distribution of positions symbolizes the power structure within the kingdom. The priests of the main gods hold the most power, and the leader of the legion warriors
Master the force! The official system of the royal capital government has just emerged, and it still has very little say in the decision-making of major affairs.
"Praise the Lord God! May she protect the kingdom and us!"
After everyone sat down, they all prayed together. Then Mickey, the knowledgeable man, looked at the preacher and priest Songbird with a serious expression.
"Singing Bird Priest, Chief Kalan and the leaders of the Yolem tribe, have converted. They once made a pact with the kingdom's exploration team... How are you going to deal with them?"
"Chief Kallan and the chiefs..."
The Songbird Priest narrowed his eyes, and a murderous intention flashed through his heart. Next, he will personally sit here, run the Yorem tribe, and build a temple and a new city. In other words, he is going to completely destroy this large northern tribe.
After swallowing it in one gulp, it transformed into the kingdom's territory and people. The original chiefs and leaders naturally became his obstacles. But listen to Mickey's wishes...
"Witness the Lord God! The Knowledgeable Mickey, these old nobles of the tribe are always a hidden danger if they are retained...Don't be soft-hearted!"
"Witness the Lord God! Songbird Priests, these tribal noble chiefs staying in the Yorem tribe are indeed a hidden danger. But if they go to the kingdom and accept the guidance of the priests, they may be able to contribute to the kingdom..."
"oh?"
The Songbird Priest pondered for a moment and understood. He nodded slightly, looked at Kuyu, the leader of the merchant fleet, and said with a smile.
"Kuyu, can this group of noble chiefs and leaders be entrusted to you and brought back to the kingdom?"
"Okay! When our merchant fleet finishes digging out the struvite and returns, we will take these dozen people away and bring them back to the Lake Kingdom. Let them receive thorough guidance from the priests at Shenwei University."
Hearing this, Kuyu nodded readily. For the next trip, the kingdom's fleet will be divided into two. The twelve longships will continue to explore according to His Majesty's will, while the merchant fleet of thirty catamarans will
Then they will return full of struvite and ore. The number of people in the fleet that continues to explore will also be reduced a lot. Because the tribes further north are unknown, there are no reliable supply points, and they cannot support too many people.
"Captain Zuvarro, the merchant fleet will take away two hundred kingdom sailors. Songbird Priest, I will also add thirty or forty local sailors from the Yorem tribe. Within a month, we will finish digging the struvite.
Then, after two months of return, they will come with more ships, manpower and supplies!"
Hearing this, Zuvalo and Songbird looked at each other and nodded. With His Majesty's approval and priority support, the kingdom's colonization on the west coast of the northern continent will be greatly accelerated. Whether it is the Tlaxcalans or the Totos
As long as the Tonak people are transported here, they can only rely on the kingdom and become loyal subjects of the kingdom.
The 3,000-strong Yoremu tribe already has enough size and food reserves to absorb more immigrants from the kingdom. Only the arrival of immigrants from the kingdom can the rule of the kingdom be further consolidated.
"Praise the Lord God! Priest Zuvalo, the Yolem tribe has just converted and is in great need of suppression by the kingdom's warriors and militia!"
The Songbird Priest pondered for a while and said with a smile.
"Yorem's tribe has seven to eight hundred tribal warriors. The exploration fleet took away one hundred people, leaving behind three hundred kingdom warriors and militiamen. In this way, plus the original one hundred kingdom warriors, there are four hundred reliable warriors.
When the army is stationed, it is almost as stable as a mountain!"
Hearing this, Zuvalo was silent for a moment and nodded in agreement. This is what it should be. If the kingdom wants to operate the coast of the West Sea, it must establish a stronghold, expand the stronghold, and retain enough force. A huge fleet of 1,200 people headed north.
, at least half of them will stay in various large and small settlements to farm and start trade with the surrounding tribes.
"God bless you! This time the kingdom's fleet went north in large numbers, and the journey was very smooth. All the tribes along the way were in awe and fear, and expressed their friendship to the kingdom. The Nantecos tribes in Zangshi Town were very respectful and paid tribute.
Food. The North Tecos people in Trois-Rivières have restrained themselves a lot and promised to provide trade supplies to the fleet and protect the kingdom’s merchant ships..."
"At the mouth of the Torpan River, we reunited with the Torpan tribe, letting the other party see the strength of the kingdom's warriors and the power of the main god's punishment. At the mouth of the river, we left fifty people, plus
The previous manpower and the Huierqiao people who defected were the village stronghold of 200 people, Xihe Village."
Zuwaro, the divine priest, looked around at the leaders and summarized the fleet's experience along the way. Xihe Village is the first kingdom stronghold on the northern route, located at the mouth of the river where the Torpan tribe migrated back and forth. The reason why it is called
"Tin River" refers to the existence of large-scale tin mines in the upper reaches of the river. These tin mines are also one of the goods that Huierqiao's tribes come to trade.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Of course, if there is not enough force to deter, and there is no alliance with the Tolpan tribe. The Huilqiao tribes who are accustomed to the wilderness are likely to choose to attack and rob, and then move away after the robbery.
Entering the vast wilderness. Currently, this stronghold is still building a wooden village and cannot store a large amount of supplies.
"Then, in Yushan Village, we left another fifty people, plus the missionary priests and dozens of warriors who had stayed in the previous times, and completely converted to this coastal Totome tribe! There are seven to eight hundred people here.
The human fishing village is already under the control of the kingdom. However, the products in Yushan Village are relatively poor. In the future, fishing and farming will be the main focus to provide food for the fleets going back and forth!"
"Now, the fleet will leave another 300 Kingdom warriors in Yorem and take away 100 local militiamen. And this is the Kingdom's third and largest Kingdom stronghold in the northern continent!"
Zuvaro paused and looked at the Songbird Priest. The Songbird Priest pondered for a moment and then said with a smile.
"Since the large tribe of Yolem has converted to the main god, it should change its name. The Mayo people converted under the thunder of the main god and are rich in gold, stone and copper stone, so they are called..."
Having said this, the name "Golden Town" flashed through Songbird Priest's mind, but he felt that it lacked some majesty.
“Let’s call this large Yolem tribe ‘Leijin Town’!”
Hearing this, the expression priest Zuvalo nodded slightly and continued.
"God bless you! In this way, after the merchant fleet of 200 people is divided, the twelve exploration fleets that continue to go north will have a scale of 700 people and can store more food. However, after the troops are completely divided,
Before we continue exploring, we have to discuss a thorny issue..."
"That's five hundred miles to the northwest, the Yaqi tribe of Yomei. How should we deal with it? The Yomei tribe has three thousand warriors and tens of thousands of tribesmen. It is almost the largest tribe within a thousand miles. And the reason why they are
The reason why they can gather on such a large scale is because they occupy an extremely large open-pit coal mine belt, which is what they call "flint". With "flint", the local tribes can resist the cold wave and have enough fuel to keep warm...
"
"The quality of the coal in this coal mine belt has been tested by the Kingdom's Divine Enlightenment Institute. It is extremely high-quality bituminous coal! The Divine Enlightenment Institute of the Black Rock Mountain Iron Mine said that only by using this good coal can they smelt and forge into
The weapons are made of fine iron... So, should we gather all the warriors and militiamen to take down this large tribe of tens of thousands of people in one fell swoop?"
