Chapter 436: Developing Australia (8)

Before entering the winter, Captain Davidming organized the manpower and almost cleaned up the indigenous tribes within a radius of 1,000 kilometers.

Most of the nearly 20,000 indigenous people are concentrated on a few struvite-rich islands.

Captain Davimin selected a group of prisoners close to the Liuqiu Army and asked them to serve as overseers and instructors of indigenous labor.

This work made the selected prisoners extremely proud, and they learned to treat the natives as they had been supervised and instructed by the Army, and they took it more seriously, especially when the Army made repeated rounds.

The Liuqiu Army set assessment indicators for them, not only requiring high production, but also requiring a low casualty rate------ which requires those guys to use their brains to manage.

Others, who seemed to be more intelligent, handed them over to the Tatars to graze and raise livestock.

Captain Davimin often proudly said to Captain Gnawing Dog: "It's safe, it's completely safe------"

Captain Dog Gnawing always wanted to ask him how many innocent people had died in this purported salvation process------- but he often held back.

He also made frequent rounds of the islands, and he saw that the natives had settled down, that their little children could play happily without worrying about food and safety, and that this winter they could live in large wooden huts and fully clothed that they had never seen before.

The eyes of hatred are still there, but the eyes of the indigenous children are gone.

Their meal is arguably the best they have ever eaten in their lives.

In the past, they had to hunt kangaroos and pick berries and tubers every day, and often did not harvest for a day, for the simple reason that skills and tools were not enough.

The members of the Liuqiu Army organized a kangaroo hunting team, and their hunting efficiency reached the highest level in the plane.

There are no people who develop and build Best City who don't hate this kind of guy who is bouncing around!

When they first arrived, it was hard to see them, but when they reclaimed the grain and vegetable fields, they appeared in a hurry!

They destroy food and vegetables inhumanely, but luckily they are easy to spot, or a few dozen kangaroos could have ruined months of the developers' efforts in a matter of days.

And they also bully lambs, ponies, and calves, and compete for their bean feed, and the half-man-high barn can't stop these thieves.

It often scares cute little livestock-------

The kangaroo hunting team fought back very sharply, and they used a variety of tactical tactics to deal with the herds of kangaroos as if they were participating in military exercises.

Soon defeated the first wave of Kangaroo attacks.

Kangaroos left their carcasses on the ground and fled------ but when the developers tasted them, some liked them and some hated them.

The only thing that can be agreed on is that the taste of roasted kangaroo tail is okay.

Kangaroo meat is a challenge to their chef skills.

After repeated attempts, the chefs made braised kangaroo meat, sizzling kangaroo meat, dry pot kangaroo meat, spicy stewed pot kangaroo meat, shredded kangaroo meat, stir-fried and soft-fried kangaroo meat, etc., and finally came to another consensus that chili or pepper must be added to make it taste better.

It wasn't until later that a chef privately pondered and prepared a secret recipe for making spicy jerky, which turned out to be very popular------ and could be sent back to Liuqiu Island or Dasong to sell at a good price, and everyone agreed that it was much better than whale jerky!

Not satisfied with the status quo, the kangaroo hunting team expanded to 500 people, ready to destroy the kangaroos' nest here!

There is another reason why the developers hate kangaroos------ they are by no means as docile as they seem, and they are definitely more tempered than the thugs of the underworld!

The first encounter with kangaroos made everyone curious, and some even wanted to get close to them.

However, those kangaroos burst out.

They are really very aggressive, and unlike the soft punches of humans, the kangaroo's attack is a real miracle of force!

They kick suddenly, punch straight, lock throats, ram ------ kangaroos attack quickly and ruthlessly, statistics show that 5 out of 10 developers who try to shake hands with kangaroos will fall to the ground in a short period of time, mildly paralyzed, and 5 will be kicked to permanent disability------ everyone knows which part of the disability.

The screams of the wounded scared the men------ and later, after recovering from their injuries, the 10 men were hardcore hunters.

After reconnaissance, it was found that the kangaroos nested here in an uncountable area of swampy weeds.

The hunters gave up on their plan to do it all at once, and they decided to slaughter them in batches.

In the first operation, Captain Davimin personally commanded.

He devised a plan of warfare, and they preset an ambush battlefield.

The front was blocked by members of the Liuqiu Army, and on both sides there were hidden nets the size of bowls of hemp rope, and the selected prisoners were ambushed on both sides with spears.

The rest of the group lined up in the distance, shouting to drive them over------ holding their spears, slapping the grass and screaming, trying not to make contact with the kangaroos.

The first ambush worked particularly well.

When the kangaroos kept coming out of the grass, the hunting team members slaughtered them wildly with big bolt guns, crossbow arrows, and throwing guns, and when they started to run in both directions, they were entangled in rope nets and killed by the team members there!

It was no less than a regular battle, and when counted afterwards, they had killed less than 200 kangaroos.

Captain Davidming took advantage of the opportunity for the team to pack up the loot, and he personally went into battle to observe the entire nest of kangaroos, and found that although he had been scared away, there were still too many kangaroos strolling leisurely in the distance.

This will be a long-term process of extermination.

The life of the natives was greatly improved------- they did not have to go out to hunt hard, they were given kangaroo meat every day according to the fruits of their labor, and in addition to salt, there were plenty of spices, and even later, they were slowly given larger clay pots, and they could finally eat them more than just roasting over the fire.

And, slowly, they also began to like to eat fresh sea fish, as well as potatoes and corn that they had never eaten before------ many indigenous people finally adapted to the present life, and the flame of hatred may be slowly being extinguished.

The captain of the dog gnawing also provided the laborers with high-quality cotton and linen clothes and suitable labor tools------ mining struvite was an extremely simple job.

Struvite stones don't smell or hard, just dig them up from the reef and let the aboriginal women smash them into powder with hard stones and they can be loaded into sacks and pulled away.

Captain Dog Chew concluded from the laughter of the indigenous children that the aboriginal mentality had changed, and he thought that some people could be appropriately arranged to start participating in the spring reclamation work.

The two sides can also exchange simple messages slowly with gestures, gestures, and expressions.

In June 1279, the temperature dropped significantly, but it was still warmer than the winter on the island.

Captain Davimin thinks that the Beth City area is safe, and he suggests to Captain Gnawing Dog that he should take someone to the east coast of Australia.

Captain Dai Weiming said: "The struvite on the nearby island is enough to be mined for 20 years, waiting for the spring to send people to clear the wasteland, and there is a shortage of labor on the island------- there may be better candidates in the east." ”

On his map, within a thousand square kilometers of Best City, he had already drawn countless small crosses, which meant that they had completely reconnoitred, and only the coastal areas of the central and eastern parts were left.

He is a man who wants to do great things, and it is impossible to rest in the winter.
