The seven member tribes of the Anti-Black Alliance had just moved to their new homes, and the hard-hit tribes originally wanted to recuperate for a while, but they didn't expect that a powerful nomadic tribe was about to hit the door.

A nomadic tribe with a population of 3,500, more than 570 adult males, more than 890 adult females, and more than 1,000 adult combatants at the same time, is such a tribe strong?

Of course, it is very powerful, even if the Anti-Black Alliance did not attack the Black Tribe, taking out a member tribe at random would not be the opponent of this nomadic tribe, not to mention the current Anti-Black Alliance, at least two member tribes need to be gathered to resist some.

However, this powerful nomadic tribe immediately discovered that it was a member of the Anti-Black Alliance that moved to the side to become a neighbor, this powerful nomadic tribe was named after "fire", and other tribes called it "fire tribe".

After discovering that they had a new neighbor, the Fire Tribe immediately sent a team to reconnoiter this new neighbor, and it had been determined that this new neighbor was relatively weak, with a population less than half of that of the Fire Tribe, and it seemed that this tribe had had some terrible battles, and the number of adult tribesmen was even smaller.

"This is a good opportunity, as long as we take this tribe, our tribe will become stronger." The fire leader spoke to the tribe's higher-ups who agreed to start a war to destroy the weaker neighbor.

After many reconnaissances, the Fire Tribe could almost determine the location of the new neighbor tribe's residence, and was making final preparations for war, but unexpectedly, something unexpected happened to the Fire Tribe, and the new neighbor of the Fire Tribe actually took the initiative to call the door.

This new neighbor of the Fire Tribe is the Goshawk Tribe, one of the members of the Anti-Black Alliance, at the very beginning, the Goshawk Tribe noticed that people from other tribes have been staring at themselves, this is not a normal phenomenon, it is likely that some tribes have been eyeing the weak Goshawk Tribe, ready to look for an opportunity to eat the Goshawk Tribe.

Although the goshawk tribe is weak, the goshawk tribe is a member of the anti-black alliance, the goshawk tribe also has six allies, the goshawk leader immediately informed the six allies of the matter, and the anti-black alliance held a second meeting after moving to a new home because of the affairs of the goshawk tribe, and the meeting place was in the center of the anti-black alliance, the withered grass tribe lived.

"Everyone, there are already tribes that regard the Goshawk Tribe as their target, if this continues, there will definitely be tribes attacking the Goshawk Tribe, our Goshawk Tribe has been severely damaged and is powerless to resist the enemy, what should we do? Are we goshawk tribes moving? The goshawk leader gestured to everyone worriedly.

When the goshawk leader finished speaking, the five leaders all looked at the leader of the withered grass, and the leader of the withered grass almost became the leader of the anti-black alliance.

The leader of the withered grass pondered for a moment and then said to the group, "Move? No, we won't move, the goshawk tribe is weak, our seven tribes have been hit hard, but the strength of our seven tribes combined is very strong, our anti-black alliance has moved to a new home, what we want to do is to recuperate first, and then gather more strength to take revenge on the black tribe.

Since there are tribes eyeing the Goshawk Tribe, then we will first gather most of the forces of the Anti-Black Alliance to fight over, show the strength of our Anti-Black Alliance to the surrounding tribes, and let more tribes know about our Anti-Black Alliance, and even choose to join our Anti-Black Alliance.

However, this war does not need to be fought to the death, as long as the other side admits defeat and makes sufficient compensation, we can withdraw our troops, after all, our tribes cannot afford to lose their people. ”

As soon as the leader of the withered grass finished speaking, the other six leaders immediately expressed their support for the proposal of the leader of the withered grass, and the anti-black alliance was to show their strength and let the surrounding tribes know that the anti-black alliance was a strong one, not a weak one to be slaughtered.

Now the total population of the Anti-Black Alliance is less than 12,000, there are about 1,300 adult males left, and about 2,700 adult females left, and less than 3,000 adult combatants can be assembled at the same time.

With the strength of the two thousand troops of the Anti-Black Alliance, the nomadic tribe that is eyeing the Goshawk Tribe will definitely not be an opponent.

Before the Fire Tribe could attack the Goshawk Tribe, the two thousand troops of the Anti-Black Alliance, which had been prepared, immediately rushed towards the Fire Tribe, and in the face of the powerful Anti-Black Alliance army, all the fighters of the Fire Tribe gathered, and several skirmishes broke out on both sides, each with its own damage, and the Fire Tribe with inferior numbers had to suffer a little more damage.

The enemy is too strong, the Fire Tribe is not an opponent, if it continues like this, the Fire Tribe will be hit hard even if it is not destroyed, if you don't want to end up with these two, the Fire Tribe can only choose to move and escape, but before escaping, the Fire Leader tried to contact the army of the Anti-Black Alliance, wanting to stop the war.

The idea of the fire leader is also the idea of the anti-black alliance, but the anti-black alliance cannot take the initiative to put forward, and after two rounds of discussion, the fire tribe terminated the war at the cost of 7,000 cattle, horses and sheep.

The fire tribe took out 7,000 cattle, horses and sheep, and the anti-black alliance army withdrew, after the anti-black alliance army withdrew, the fire leader immediately led the tribe to move, the fire leader didn't want the fire tribe to have such a powerful force as a neighbor, today is a truce, I don't know when there will be another war, only by moving far away can we solve this problem.

After moving, the fire leader still couldn't understand the question, why the weak new neighbor would break through and become so powerful, but he didn't know that the new neighbor of the fire tribe was only a member of the anti-black alliance, and it was the weakest few.

The 7,000 head of cattle, horses, and sheep obtained from the fire tribe were distributed by the leader of the withered grass, 3,500 head of cattle, horses, and sheep were distributed according to the proportion of the teams of each tribe, and 3,500 head of cattle, horses, and sheep were distributed according to the number of dead and wounded of each tribe.

After the distribution, the seven tribes went home happily with cattle, horses and sheep, although the booty was not much, but it was very worthwhile for the tribe to get a batch of cattle, horses and sheep at such a small price.

The war of the Anti-Black Alliance against the Fire Tribe is over, and several surrounding tribes have noticed this battle, and everyone knows that they have a new neighbor, a new neighbor with very strong strength, and they all move some distance to other places, away from the Anti-Black Alliance, to prevent the Anti-Black Alliance from suddenly coming over, and they don't have much time to deal with it.

After the end of this battle, no tribe dared to send people to stare at the member tribes of the Anti-Black Alliance, this was a provocation to the Anti-Black Alliance, and no tribe wanted to become the next Fire Tribe.

Through a war, the Anti-Black Alliance has also achieved its own goal, showing its strength to the surrounding tribes, and it will be easy for no tribe to dare to fight against the member tribes of the Black Alliance in the future, and the Anti-Black Alliance will buy time for itself to recuperate, and at the same time, the reputation of the Anti-Black Alliance is also increasing, maybe when a new tribe will consider joining the Anti-Black Alliance.

……

"Kill! Don't let go of an enemy, a captive who can be captured. ”

Facing the siege of nearly 400 warriors of the Xia Kingdom, another farming tribe of less than 500 people disappeared from the land.

Since the beginning of the year, the foreign war of the Xia State has not ended, on the grassland, the cavalry troops of the Xia State continue to go deep into the grassland, and the anti-black alliance gathered 5,000 troops to attack the city, which was easily defeated by the city, and the cities of the Xia Kingdom were united in pairs, and the expedition team composed of four teams of soldiers continued to fight around the city to the distance.

At the end of spring, there were no other tribes within four days of the cities of the Xia Kingdom, and at the end of the summer, this range was expanded to a seven-day journey, and most of the tribes discovered by the Xia soldiers were wiped out, and only a small number of strong and cautious tribes chose to move before the Xia Kingdom mobilized more people to come over.

Unexpectedly, one of the destroyed tribes was once driven away from the area on both sides of the Yellow River by the Xia Kingdom, and now they met again, and the fate of this tribe seemed to have been doomed, and it was inevitable to be destroyed.

When the teams were fighting outside, they also found a lot of products, such as bamboo forests, copper mines, and iron ores, although they could not be used by the Xia Kingdom for the time being, but they were all marked on the map, and they would be used when they were needed.

The two cities in the southeast and southwest of Zhongjing City are under rapid construction, and it is expected to be completed before the autumn harvest, and every day there are materials transported from the cities of Xia Kingdom to the Zhongjing City Wharf, and then the Zhongjing City Wharf is transported to the two cities by horse-drawn carriage.

In order to prevent too many carriages from affecting the lives of the residents of Zhongjing City, the carriages transporting materials will not enter Zhongjing City, but bypass from outside the city walls, although they have walked a little more, but all the time is not much more than passing directly through the city, after all, in the city, many times the carriage has to stop to make way for people or other carriages.

Without these carriages, it would have taken two years to complete the construction of the two cities far from the river, and with these carriages, the time to build the city would have been greatly shortened, and the number of people who built the city would have been reduced.

In the palace of Zhongjing City, the Minister of Industry once again presented a treasure to Su Yan, a monocular, Su Yan picked up the telescope and glanced into the distance, and the scenery in the distance was magnified a lot, probably from one to one to one to six.

The increase is not much, but it is already a very good start, and it is a telescope that has been hand-polished by the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry, and it is also the world's first telescope, which is of great commemorative significance.

Maybe in the future, we can set up a museum, put objects such as telescopes in it, and write down their sources at the same time, so that future generations can understand the hard work of their ancestors.

Not only did the first telescope be made, but the Ministry of Industry also made a great breakthrough in firing glass, and the main reason for being able to fire slightly larger pieces of glass was that the glass could be melted.

At present, the glass fired by Xia Guo belongs to quartz glass, with a high melting point, but Xia Guo can even smelt iron, there is coal, and it is not a problem to burn and melt the glass, and then pour the molten glass juice into a special mold to make a large piece of glass.

Under the current conditions, the Ministry of Industry has broken the technology of making large pieces of glass, and next year, Su Yan will probably be able to install glass on the doors and windows of the palace house.

However, it is very difficult to promote it to the whole country of Xia, the cost of making glass is too high, and it is impossible to install glass on the doors and windows of every household for at least ten years, but glass can be rewarded as a valuable item to the meritorious citizens.

As for making glass into luxury goods and trading with other tribes, it is almost impossible, the tribes of this era mostly need food, weapons, etc., and they do not need any luxury goods at all, and the tribesmen cannot even eat enough, so how can they have the heart to think about other things.

The telescope is a good thing in glass products, and another good thing is the mirror, Xia has bronze, but there is no copper mirror, and the metal cannot be wasted in this place, it is better to use a basin of water as a mirror, and now you can use glass to make a mirror, but how to make a mirror with glass is a problem, silver plating, aluminum plating, the simplest is mercury plating, but mercury is toxic.

Forget it, these things are not something that Su Yan can do, the things that come to mind are handed over to the Ministry of Industry to do, and the Ministry of Industry will mobilize personnel to study, it is best to be able to study them, and it doesn't matter if they can't be studied, the mirror is a dispensable thing, and the role is not as good as that of a telescope, and the Ministry of Industry needs to select and mobilize enough personnel to study the telescope, and then it is the mirror.

It is another year of autumn harvest season, the whole summer country fell into the busy autumn harvest, among the various ministries of the summer country, the Ministry of Agriculture is the busiest few, after the arrival of spring to consider the matter of spring ploughing, after the end of spring ploughing, we also have to consider weeding, watering, insect removal and other things, and then the autumn harvest, after the autumn harvest has to deal with the autumn harvest of grain, only in winter can you rest for some time.

In agriculture, this year's autumn harvest is also the last year, grain output is something that Su Yan is very concerned about, and Su Yan is most concerned about the unit yield or mu yield of various crops.

Since the citizens of Xia live in various cities, the area of cultivated land outside the city is limited, and the total grain production of Xia can increase by building more cities to cultivate more farmland, thereby increasing the total grain production, but if you want to increase the grain production of a city, the only way to increase the unit yield of crops is to increase the yield of crops, or to cultivate higher yield crop seeds.

This is also one of the most important tasks of the Ministry of Agriculture, which has separate farmland for growing crops and cultivating them in a targeted manner to increase production.

After the Ministry of Agriculture's research results, many of them were used in the farmland of Xia Kingdom, and various high-yield crop seeds continued to appear.

Five years ago, the mu yield of the four crops was 172 catties, 151 catties, 130 catties, and 126 catties respectively, but this year, the average yield per mu of the latest high-yield seeds has reached 205 catties, 178 catties, 143 catties, and 185 catties respectively.

You must know that this high-yield seed is still expanding the planting range, if all the farmland in Xia Country is planted with the best crop seeds, then how much will the grain production of Xia Country increase.
