Volume 2 Playing with the Tribes Chapter 329 The Tribal War Begins
Xiao Erhei left because it carried the duties of the king of horses and the hope of the entire herd. Just like Ding Qi, he came to this grassland thousands of miles away, and he also carried the responsibility of the tribe's survival, and he also wanted the hope of the entire tribe to let everyone live a better and happier life.
If he is just himself, he can really use the phrase "one person is full, and the whole family is not hungry". Unfortunately, he is not, there are many more clansmen behind him, and thousands of human beings.
The next day, Ding Qi led people to bid farewell to the people of the horse hunting tribe, and led the dozen or so people of the Ding tribe to drive the donkeys and the herd of cattle, as well as two hundred horses, in the direction of home, and returned along the same road.
On this return trip, in addition to some more tamed animals, there were also horsetails and twenty warriors from the horse hunting tribe. On behalf of the Horse Hunter Tribe, they will visit the Ding tribe and exchange the animal skins stored by the tribe for some pottery and coarse salt from the Ding tribe, and learn how to make pottery and other tools. This was all promised by Ding Qi, and in addition, they went to the Ding tribe to explore the way, and by the way, they helped Ding Qi drive the more than 300 livestock back to the Ding tribe.
After they return to the Horse Hunter Tribe, they will organize a horse exchange before the onset of winter, and transport most of the horses tamed by the tribe to the Ding tribe for exchange. The exchange will include bronze tools such as kitchen knives, axes, saws, and skinning knives.
After the cooperation between the two sides is further developed, the Ding tribe will increase the technical support and variety of the horse hunting tribe. Therefore, Heavy Hoof decided to lead the entire horse hunting tribe to hunt and domesticate horses, cattle and donkeys, except for the group of horses led by Xiao Erhei. The taming of cattle and donkeys was also placed in the list that Tinch drew up for him.
Considering the issue of sustainable development, Ding Qi also told Heavy Hoof and Pegasus the truth of "fishing without drying up the water, hunting without burning the forest", not wanting them to catch a herd of horses for hunting, keep the king of horses or horse handles, and not kill the mother beast and the young beast.
More than 30 people, driving more than 300 livestock, went straight to the valley of Youtong.
Since the horses were moving fast, the oxen and donkeys could not keep up with them, so Ding Qi arranged for Cang and five warriors to accompany Mawei and fifteen warriors of the horse hunting tribe to go back first, and the route was to follow the route map when they came earlier. Don't stop in between, hurry with all your might, and return to the tribe as soon as possible. Five other warriors of the Horse Hunter tribe followed Dingchi to drive the donkeys and oxen.
The donkey was a little sad about Xiao Erhei's departure, but after it saw the fiery red horse king, it immediately put that sadness behind and followed Xiaohong left and right to ask for comfort. It knew that the horse king in front of him under Ding Qi's seat was an existence comparable to Xiao Erhei. Moreover, like the cattle, after being protected and fed by humans, and getting along with humans day and night, they thought that they could survive better with the protection of humans, so they decided to follow humans. Of course, they can't help but go, and if they don't, they will be greeted with sticks and ropes, and it will be a little trouble.
The number of cattle increased to eighty-one in the last ten days, and they began to obey the command of the humans, and the earth and five warriors were responsible for driving them.
They are the slowest movers, and they will run wildly three or four times a day under the pressure of the little cutie, using the same trick that predators treat herbivores, which can speed up their travel.
Ding Qi returned from the long road, and after the Ding tribe came back from Lucun, he threw himself into the intense production and life, and all the work was carried out in an orderly manner.
Recently, all pregnant mothers in the tribe who are pregnant and about to give birth are practicing a kind of pregnant exercise under the organization of the deer. This maternity exercise was specially taught to the deer before Ding Qi set out to hunt for horses, so that she could teach those expectant mothers to do prenatal exercises in the tribe.
The main purpose of pregnant women exercise is to enhance the strength of the abdomen, back and pelvic muscles of pregnant women, promote blood circulation, make the pelvic joints more flexible, and the muscles more elastic, which is conducive to natural childbirth.
In ancient times and even primitive times, when there were no modern medical conditions, pregnant women who could only give birth naturally faced great dangers, such as difficult childbirth. Therefore, learning some knowledge about pregnant women's exercises and childbirth and midwifery before childbirth will help pregnant women to give birth quickly, without making them too nervous and reducing the risk.
It's just that when the deer was teaching everyone pregnant women to exercise, he was laughed at by those pregnant women.
"O deer! Who taught you pregnant women to it? ”
"Oh, it was Leader Ding Qi who taught me before he left, so that everyone can have a baby more smoothly!"
"Yes, was it taught by Leader Ding himself?"
The deer didn't know why, but replied truthfully:
"Well, it's my own mouth!"
"Wow! Are you sure? How does it feel to be in person? Did he bite you? ”
"Oops! Ignore you! ”
The deer blushed and twisted his face to ignore them, causing everyone to laugh.
On the other side, a pregnant woman raised her hand to indicate that she had a question.
"O deer! I have a question, this action is so awkward, is this what the leader taught you by hand? ”
Lu did not doubt him, nodded and said:
"Yes! It's taught by hand, what's the problem? ”
"The question is, the leader's hands are not bare, are they slippery? Ha ha! ”
Finding that the deceived deer had a fever in his ears, he stamped his feet in hatred, wished to beat them, always made fun of himself, and wished that he would hit the wall.
Practicing pelvic exercises, the former platoon leader asked her a question:
"O deer! This pelvic movement is weird, are you sure the boss taught you? ”
The deer is a little vigilant, these days by this group of pregnant women are scared, always worried about falling into their language trap. After thinking carefully about whether there were any traps in it, and then considering that what he was about to say would not leave a handle, the deer said cautiously:
"Well, that's what the leader taught me."
After the deer answered, he turned his head to look, but everyone was not smiling, and they were all concentrating on listening to their explanation. Well, it's good that I didn't leave the handle.
"Are you sure? Deer, look, I'm lying here, with my hands on my knees and my legs apart, how can I be so special like when you Brother Cang and I were doing that! Tell me honestly, have you already done that with the leader? ”
As soon as Feng finished asking, everyone burst into laughter.
The deer hasn't understood what is going on, so what he says is fine! Posture?
The deer suddenly understood, and was ashamed to find a crack in the ground to get into. Quickly leave this group of pregnant women who have not been serious since they got married, ran to the cafeteria on the side, and sat there alone sulking. How can a deer, who has not yet gone through human affairs, understand so many twists and turns between men and women?
These guys are so bad!
"Alas! It seems that what that guy said is right, after a woman has a man, she will become improper, more indecent than a man! I don't know where you're now, when you'll be back. I miss you so much! ”
Lu looked at a couple of men and women who were not yet adults outside the cafeteria and ran over holding hands, and thought with some envy.
"How can the chief know so many things? Even women know whether they are serious or not, and you know how to make women have children faster, are you really a god? It also includes the delivery kit you mentioned, boiling hot water when giving birth, cutting the umbilical cord with sterilized scissors, and even you know all of this, what else do you not know? ”
The deer became more and more curious.
"What a strange man!"
In the past month, the tribe has made good progress in various tasks. The crops are growing very well, and with everyone's careful care, the millet of corn, soybeans, and small rice are growing luxuriantly. Even if there are long insects as the leader said, there is no need to worry, just sprinkle a solution made of plant ash and water on it according to the leader, and basically destroy those pests. Even if there are some big green worms, the buck is not afraid, and can directly organize everyone to rummage one by one. There is a lot of power in a lot of people, so many places, and it only takes half a day to find them all.
The peppers are growing very quickly, and some of them are already starting to bear small white flowers, and in another week they will bloom in large quantities and bear fruit. Yams are already bearing yam beans, which are the basis for planting in large quantities next year, so the tribesmen are careful to take care of them, pull weeds frequently, and water and drain them in time. Because this was all arranged by the leader, and it was specially explained by Aragami.
As for the lotus, gourd, water chestnut, etc., they have long been in their respective territories and grow densely. On the side of kudzu, there are also special people who arrange to cut kudzu vines and soak kudzu hemp, and summer is a good time to soak kudzu hemp.
On the craftsman's side, the stonemasons under the leadership of Shiraishi transported the chiseled stone slabs back to the city one by one and laid them on two avenues to replace the previous red bricks. The surplus red bricks were transferred to the residential area to pave the pavement of the house floor and the street.
As for basket weaving, basket weaving, bamboo plaque weaving and other work, there is no stop, and many of these items are stored in the tribe for daily drying food
Every day, Yang Jiao and their group are trying to figure out the things of wool spinning and kudzu spinning, mainly how to improve efficiency and the quality of finished products.
On the red deer side, he cooperated with the two of them to produce large clay jars as storage tools for the tribe in the future. In addition, they are also working on making a pottery cylinder with the same shape, one end can be attached to the other end and used as a sewage pipe.
Ben would lead the team out every day, except for hunting, just to tempt the robbers of the tribe again and dig them out. Unfortunately, it never appeared, so he had to focus all his energy on tribal defense and food reserves.
As for those people who Ben is concerned about, at this time, they have once again embarked on the road of no return from the Houtu tribe to disrupt the order between the tribes in the Great Wilderness.
The Snake Tribe has already fought with the Blackwater Tribe for I don't know how many times, and after that exchange meeting, the inexplicable battle that took place made them never figure out who the enemy was. Without knowing who it was, they could only turn their suspicious gaze to each other, and the war between the tribes began.
The Blackwater tribe is powerful, although the Snake tribe is crazy, but it also knows that its strength is a little weak, and the only advantage is that its tribe is in the depths of the swamp, and it is used to dealing with snakes, and often uses snakes to launch surprise attacks. Although the results caused by the battle were not large, the Blackwater tribe was also annoyed, and they attacked and harassed many times, losing a lot of manpower.
In this case, the Blackwater Tribe began to contact some small and medium-sized tribes under his control to attack the Wild Snake Tribe together. The Serpent Tribe itself began to contact other friendly tribes to rebel against the Blackwater Alliance, and the scale of the battle between the two sides and the number of people involved increased. It's just that the Blackwater Tribe has an artifact like a fishing net, and the food is relatively sufficient, on the other hand, the Wild Snake Tribal Alliance is often affected by hunger, and its overall strength has decreased somewhat.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Blackwater tribe led various small and medium-sized tribes to raid many personnel and tribes of the Snake Tribe Alliance, uprooted those tribes, and captured many slaves and brought them back to the tribe. In addition to food, the Blackwater tribe also does its best to help other tribes get the supplies they need. But everyone rushed to choose slaves as a reward, because slaves had become the hard currency of exchange between tribes.
The two coalition wars that swept the surrounding area began, involving dozens of surrounding tribes. Every few days, a small tribe is wiped out by an opponent in exchange for joining an alliance against the enemy. The exterminated tribesmen were all gathered together and imprisoned in the place where their alliance had been built, waiting for the next exchange meeting.
