Chapter 224: Selecting Warriors
The date of birth of primitive people cannot be specific to which day, so it can only be determined according to the season, and the story is recorded in the vine knot.
The total population of the bear tribe is more than 1,100, of which as many as 300 are under the age of 10, and this is not counting babies under the age of one.
The higher the age, the greater the proportion of women, mainly because men are easy to hang up when hunting, and those over thirty-five years old are basically women, including the elders, there are about 90 people in total, and this is because he has changed places and replaced many old people.
These people are not suitable to participate in the war, and their physical strength has also dropped significantly, so they simply except for the elders, and the rest of the old people are all organized into the house, miscellaneous work, planting or something, of course, the men among them will be incorporated into the guard team, responsible for the safety of the tribe.
In addition, as many as 20 people with serious disabilities were sent to the salt mine to do what they could.
Zhu Rong and Gonggong were recruited at the age of ten, and the two of them were worthy of the ten-year-old festival, and sixty boy scouts were made up in the tribe, more men and fewer women, divided into two teams led by two, and almost forty girls were arranged to do things.
Then, fifty adult savages were separated, led by Shabu, mostly with short thorns.
At this time, the total population is only more than 500 points, and only half of them will become warriors, but as many as 400 people will participate in the selection, and the number of adult males alone is simply not enough. It is understandable to think that the conscription in later generations led to the absence of young adults in every household.
The selection of adult warriors began, and the weapons to choose were nothing more than spears, stone axes, short thorns, bows and arrows, throwing spears, and shields.
The first is the selection of archers, 400 people have carried out test shooting, in order to make the tribe more enthusiastic, but those who are selected will be rewarded on the spot, just a bowl of food, but it has aroused everyone's enthusiasm.
As a result of the bow and arrow test, there is no doubt that the previous twenty archers were elected, and there were thirty others with good talents, so he asked Haruto to take over the selection, and selected ten of them as supplements, and the next thirty archers were used as scouts.
It didn't take long, and Chun had the right candidates, well, these thirty people and fifty wild people were excluded, and there was no need to select them again.
He didn't break his word and fattened up, and rewarded the eighty people with food on the spot, which was extra to make the others envious, but this time both adult men and women participated in the selection, so there would be no dissatisfaction.
As for the adult women who did not participate, they are either pregnant, or weak, and they are already skilled workers, burning pottery and boiling salt, and it is not suitable to transform into soldiers.
"Now, all of you left, along with the Crusaders, run five laps around the tribe." He held out a hand representing the number five. The five-kilometer cross-country is a normal training subject in later generations, but don't underestimate it, because in the troops of later generations, more than thirty percent of soldiers failed the assessment.
Circling around the tribe, about one kilometer or so, five laps down is considered qualified within twenty minutes, of course, this is the standard of later generations, and primitive people will be stronger.
He pressed his pulse with his fingers, and his heartbeat was about 70 times a minute, and the normal person's heartbeat was 60 to 100 times, mostly about 70 times, and about 50 times for track and field athletes.
It is no problem to let the boy scouts run five kilometers, and some modern schools will organize junior high school students to run four kilometers of cross-country running, and the potential of people is unlimited, depending on how to stimulate it.
As for how to count and prevent cheating, this is a bit troublesome, and finally the leaf counting is used, with a special ginkgo biloba, every time you run a lap, you take a leaf, and collect five leaves to complete.
"Everyone, pay attention, run five laps, don't run so fast at first. Start now and run! At his command, three hundred and seventy adults and sixty and a half children ran away.
Then Su Yang put his hand on the pulse, and remembered a leaf after beating seventy times, mainly to test the physical fitness of primitive people, and to have a numerical reference when it came time to march urgently.
This next year, we may consider holding a primitive summer games, inviting people from various tribal alliances to participate, pulling up the prototype of the Olympics as soon as possible, losing the land reparations, and gradually growing the winners, creating a primitive harmony. It's not a joke, it's fun to hold a sports day, and it can reflect the strength and weakness of each tribe.
When he came back to his senses, a minute had passed, and he hurriedly took a leaf and put it in the clay pot, don't delay the statistics. Perhaps it was because of the first running race, everyone thought it was very new, and the elders came to watch, and many people climbed to the fence and the big trees to occupy a good position, and some people ran to observe on the way.
The reason why Su Yang arranged to run outside the tribe was for safety, and secondly, to increase cohesion.
"Holy, so fast?" He never expected that someone would already appear about a minute and a half later, although the distance he ran was not a standard kilometer, and the time he calculated was also incorrect, but it was really too fast.
When he was stunned, the person had arrived in front of him, fortunately, there were three people in total, the fastest one he had almost no effect, he belonged to the kind of ordinary on weekdays, I didn't expect it to be a super running man, this speed must have broken the world record in later generations.
The second fastest is Xia Bu, which is relatively normal, and the voluntary registration is bleak, and the third fastest is the werewolf, and the difference between the three is only one or two seconds, and they are all super running men.
He will finally recall the world kilometer record in his mind, it seems to be more than two minutes and ten seconds, and women do not have a kilometer record, and it is estimated that it will be ten or twenty seconds slower than men.
But this time, when his heartbeat reached one hundred and forty times, that is, the calculated time of two minutes, there were already dozens of primitive people running over, if it was not too large a statistical error, or the physical fitness of primitive people was very strong.
The fastest child is about two and a half minutes, which is also very perverted, these children are not even thirteen years old.
By the time of the second lap, it was obviously a lot slower, but there were still more than a dozen people who ran into two minutes in the second lap, and the fastest one he couldn't remember his name took about three minutes and ten seconds after two laps.
The third lap was generally slow again, some people rushed too fast at the beginning, and now their stamina has decreased, and a few have encountered Waterloo and can't run. But I'm still persistent, and I hope to adjust.
In the fourth lap, dozens of people came out, he was a little scared, and when the last lap came, even he became very excited, this is the most primitive record, which is about to be born at this moment! (To be continued.) )
