Chapter 792. The Great Leap Forward of the Prince's Chapter
The cattle on the Snake River Plain have been bleeding for several lifetimes, since Mao Xingjian arrived in this fertile land, they have been constantly captured, pierced nose ropes, and finally had to be cut off eggs, losing the ideal of cattle life, and the bitter incarnation of the old black cow, carrying a heavy plough to work for human beings, now they are even more sad, Snake City not only hunted cattle by himself, but also taught the method of cattle taming to other Sioux people.
So the cattle herd on the whole Great Plains followed the bad luck, so in the past, the Sioux people were able to eat as much as they could and catch as much as they could, but now they tried their best to catch as much as they could, and the valleys that no one usually went to became fragrant and sweet, and in the vast wilderness, you can see everywhere the Sioux people who have been tamed, tall and strong, and run all over the ground with their kind.
There is no recruitment, Mao Xingjian implements agriculture and requires a lot of labor, so he can only contribute his meager strength by these old black cattle who are beaten and scolded and do not return their mouths! And there is another reason why the Sioux people are very enthusiastic about catching them, in the past, they did not have taming technology, and finally hunted a bison, and the parts that could not be eaten could only rot and be discarded, and when they were hungry, they had nothing, but now, with the method of taming bison, this is equivalent to storing the prey alive, even if the cultivation fails, you can live by killing cattle in winter, and you will not starve to death.
Han Xiaomo's name of "gelding witch" can't be removed, and several animal husbandry experts under Mao Xingjian have been sent to other tribes in batches to guide cattle taming, and she was sent to the largest Pai You Department to teach those natives how to make cow fathers hand in hand.
It was still almost the same straw hut, as if it had a premonition of the miserable situation that was about to bego, and it had only been captured for a short time, and the tall and strong bull was snorting and sneering, and it struggled to come in, but unfortunately, a small bull's nose ring was like the golden hoop of the monkey, and let it be as strong as a bull's ......, well, as strong as itself, or dragged into the gelding barn, and its four hooves were tied to a peg in a fixed place, enough to break the head of the tree, and it was held by an assistant, and carried into the air, stalk the neck, and come a gentleman frankly.
Carrying a gelding knife and a few apprentices, Han Xiaomo squatted obscenely below.
"Look clearly, pull like this, cut it from here with a knife, then cut the tendons with the blade, and then squeeze it out with your hands!"
Even if he is not an Indian who believes in animism, he is just a bright man, seeing such a delicate little girl so familiar with the road castrated such a big guy with infinite strength, it is estimated that a man can't be calm!
The three young wizards who were selected as apprentices watched Han Xiaomo's knife fly up and down and click, while still teaching step by step, the three yellow little faces were all pale, and their hands couldn't help but cover their crotches.
The second calf waist was squeezed out again, Han Xiaomo turned around with great interest, but found that the three apprentices did not listen carefully, and the grassland wild girl suddenly pinched the little man's waist in annoyance and stood up, and pointed at the apprentice with the largest nose in front of him with the little hand of cow blood and reprimanded.
"It's not good to hear, this is the last demonstration of my aunt, the next cow will be on you, if you dare to do something wrong! Miss Ben will tie you to this gelding, click!"
Seeing her small hand holding the knife and making a downward cutting motion, with the "fierce" appearance of her little face, the unlucky Paiute wizard suddenly covered her crotch with both hands, foaming at the mouth, and fell to the ground in Han Xiaomo's stunned gaze.
"Holy, so fragile? It's dizzy!"

In terms of agriculture, Mao Xingjian's Snake City is also unreserved, not only the last year Chen Jiao sent a boatload of all kinds of tools to the remaining six tribes, how to control the plough, how to pull the plow, how to breed, Mao Xingjian also sent senior old farmers to teach each tribe, in the Snake City spared no effort in the output of farming culture, the six tribes close to the river The best irrigated land is under the hard work of the North American bison who have lost their dreams, and they are pulled out of neat green squares.
This year is really catching up with the Great Leap Forward, in just one year, the agricultural area of the North American continent has more than tripled, the farming population has increased to more than 36,000 people, the agricultural area of Snake City has also broken through the limit of last year, paddy fields, dry fields plus a piece of more than 40,000 acres, the nearby land that can be reclaimed has been reclaimed to the limit, and even in order to take care of the land nearby, some Snake City immigrants have also separated from the town, and built villages under the city a few miles away, and the farming civilization from the East Asian continent has bloomed like a flower.
Of course, Mao Xingjian is not a real philanthropist, when he recognized this big chief, he agreed with the ministries that when the autumn harvest came, the cabinet harvest would be handed over to Snake City as a tribute to the three gods of corn, rice, and wheat.
Although, it will take some time before the real domination of these indigenous Indians, even if Mao Xingjian becomes the chief of the chief, the other six tribes are also self-governed, but it is already a great historical progress to transform them from a slash-and-burn nomadic life to a farming life of men and women, just like the bull nose ring on the nose of the American bison, these savages who fight with the sky and the earth are initially domesticated, and over time, sooner or later these Indians will be domesticated as part of the Ming people, The culture of the Ming Dynasty will also rule the continent like the American culture that influenced the world in later generations.

There is a saying that the lover's eyes are out of Xi Shi, and in the fluttering voice, the two young men of the Kota Department are dressed in animal skin clothes, but they are holding shovels, and they are turning over the cow dung that has just been pushed out of the cattle farm to prepare for fermentation, Mao Xingjian, the prince, can sit on the big stone and watch it with relish, on the other hand, the carpenters of the Chen family sent by Chen Jiao are also busy to death, and their voices are hoarse, and in their fluttering command, a wooden house similar to the sacrificial temple built on the edge of the Snake Lake rises from the ground, It is no longer a cowhide tent that can be dismantled and left with a single touch.
Because of the hard work carried out in the spring, the people of Nakota are also making long-term plans to keep this land and no longer wander around! Everything is developing in the direction that Mao Xingjian expects.
But just when he was intoxicated, Song Yongzhong came out very disappointed.
This time the old boy also learned to be obedient, although he hurriedly rode a fast horse over, but when he got off the horse, he still breathed evenly, tidied up his collar, and walked over after a good time.
"Humble to meet the prince!"
"It's a matter of gradual defense again? Didn't Lone say it? Wait for the completion of the construction of these houses, and then hold the Snake Lake Conference, a tribe will send 300 to 500 hunters, Lord Song, you will have a defense force of 3,000 people! ”
Just like seeing a debt collector, Mao Xingjian waved his hand impatiently, who knew that this time, the smile on Song Yongzhong's black face remained the same, and he still looked slow and leisurely.
"Prince, this time I came not to guard against the troops, but just a trivial matter."
"Say!"
I really can't stand his urgency and become chronic all of a sudden, Mao Xingjian urged with some impatience.
"Oh, it's not a big deal, it's just that the tribe of the Cheyenne people has walked out of the Great Basin and arrived at the south bank of the Snake River, and it is more than ten days away from Snake Lake."
Fluttering suddenly, Mao Xingjian fell directly from the big stone.
..........
Although they are also called Indians, the indigenous civilizations of North and South America are completely different, excluding the Maya in South America and the Aztecs in Mexico, there are more than 20 distinct tribes in North America alone, counting the tribal dialects, it is said that there are more than 50 languages spoken at the same time, and the Sioux are only one of them, and even a relatively weak one in the mountains.
The Cheyenne, Zoni, Shoshone, Hopi, and Blackfoot that Song Yongzhong had been worried about were another relatively powerful alliance, they spoke six or seven languages, and they were like horseless nomads who constantly moved between the Rocky Mountains, the Great Basin and the coast of Mexico, and more importantly, these tribes were extremely aggressive, and the Aztec Empire often fought with them at the time, and the Spaniards replaced the Aztec Empire, and they were beaten to the point of crying dad and mother, and more than half of the Spanish strongholds on the Gulf Coast were ransackedNow these warlike tribes are heading north again.
Not only the newly-born Snake City, but even the Sioux people in the past have suffered greatly.
But it's no wonder that these people are so strong and good at fighting, following Song Yongzhong's reconnaissance cavalry across the Snake River, standing on horseback more than a mile away with a telescope to look at, Mao Xingjian's face gradually became solemn, compared to the stone tools, bronze Sioux people, Cheyenne people are a lot more advanced, they use iron scissors, the bow carried in the north is made of animal tendons and bullet wood, it is slightly close to the Mongolian bow, and from the hands of the Spanish colonists, these warlike tribes have obviously learned a lot, some wear leather clothes similar to leather armor, The spears they held reflected the cold light of metal, and some simply carried Spanish swords, spears, and even arquebuses.
What made Mao Xingjian feel even more troublesome was that he also saw dozens of feather-crowned warrior artifacts in the tribe riding on a tall animal with four hooves.
Horse!
I don't know if it was stolen from the Spaniards, or a wild horse from the Mexican wilderness, anyway, the Cheyenne people actually have cavalry!
After just a glance, Mao Xingjian no longer had the heart to investigate, so he sat back on the horse directly, and immediately shouted anxiously at Dongfang to order.
"Pass Gu's order, go to the Sixth Department immediately, Lone will convene the Snake Lake Conference again to discuss the enemy's major affairs!"
A dozen horses jumped into the gentle snake river with haste and urgency......
