Chapter 16 The First Division of Labor and Cooperation

"At this time, blacks absolutely can't make us call friends, at least not yet. Before, they were still slaves driven by others, or slaves whose life and death hung by the line at any time, they were already frightened, in their hearts, now they only have fear and doubt, and now they dare not make friends with anyone", Zhao Wenli said lightly, "But they can become our most loyal fighters and the most powerful helpers, as long as we treat them better than the Americans, let them be fed and clothed, we can make them grateful to us." People are spoiled, we have to be good to them, and we can only slowly improve their conditions, they will cherish it, let them learn to be a good partner and helper first, and then try to see if they can become friends. Because we don't want to raise them to be the next monkey or a stick. ”

Seeing that the coalition forces brought so much grain, iron ore and various tools, Zhao Wenli was also happy, but when dealing with these black slaves, he had a disagreement with Xu Yongquan.

"Do you really want to continue to enslave your black brothers despite their suffering? In this way, what is the difference between us and those American slave owners? Xu Yongquan said angrily.

"Captain Xu, you are wrong, I didn't say that I wanted to enslave them. I'm just saying that they are on this continent, just like us, no, even worse than us, they are a group of people who have no roots at all, they come from different corners of Africa, they don't form a whole at all, their original tribes, many of them are just primitive societies, therefore, in this world, if they want to survive, they can only rely on others, as long as they can survive, they will not easily betray, even if they betray, they have no object to turn to. And that's exactly what we need, wouldn't it be nice to leave our guns to them, to let them fight for us, to let us do what we have to do? ”

This is something that everyone has discussed a long time ago, Xu Yongquan listened to Zhao Wenli's explanation, and had nothing to say, so he had to say curtly: "Brother Zhao, I am a simple soldier, don't mind if you have anything to say." ”

"I don't want to do that either, but we need to adapt to the realities of this era. It is precisely because we have come to the Hereafter that we can learn from many of the experiences of the Hereafter. Black people need partners and help, but the only ones who really make them friends and their own are their own black people, because the harm caused to them by the slave trade has made them dare not trust anyone easily. You may be kind to help them, but you are afraid that good intentions will do bad things, they may not treat us as friends, it is better to be partners first, everyone works together, whether to be friends or partners in the future, we need our joint efforts, which step can be counted. ”

"Okay, I'll listen to Brother Zhao." Understanding Zhao Wenli's true intentions, Xu Yongquan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Dressed in neat and clean clothes, and having eaten a full meal, the black slaves in front of them, although still emaciated, were obviously in much better spirits than when they first came to Tokyo City, and this time they looked at the shackles that had disappeared on their feet, and looked at the people who were busy with them, their eyes became less evasive and frightened.

"Black brothers, you have worked hard. Heaven has inflicted many injustices on you, and you have suffered countless grievances and sufferings, but today, all this is over. Zhao Wenli said emotionally, although he didn't know if these blacks could understand the American English he had practiced these days, it seemed that the blacks began to talk to each other, and it should be those blacks who had slowly integrated into the United States and understood some English to convey to their peers.

"But the murderous and hateful enemy is still with us, and they are always trying to deprive us of our freedom, usurp our property, and even take our lives. Zhao Wenli's gaze was resolute, and there seemed to be some tears flickering in his eyes, and in his flickering eyes, he seemed to see the figures of countless black people.

The scene became a little chaotic, and the faces of the blacks were filled with mixed expressions, and although the traversers could not understand what they were yelling, they knew that the anger of the blacks had been aroused.

"No one can save us but ourselves, so today, by the will of heaven, I call on all of you to take up the weapons in our hands and fight to the death against the hateful enemy, for our homeland, for our families, for our lives and freedom." Zhao Wenli raised the rifle in his hand sensationally, and shouted almost hoarsely, "Come on, black brothers, as long as you take a step forward, these guns are yours, as long as you pick up these weapons, the hateful enemy will no longer be able to enslave you and exploit you." ”

The blacks were completely boiling, and although most of them couldn't understand what Zhao Wenli said about them, the anger and excitement of their companions infected them, and the flow of people began to pour in on Zhao Wenli, asking for guns.

"Don't rush, don't rush, take your time, it's all there, it's all there." Zhao Wenli looked at the men who looked like black leaders for help, and sure enough, under the pressure of those people's bullets, the flow of people calmed down a little and began to collect guns in an orderly manner. The blacks couldn't put down their arms and caressed the women they loved, and many even shed tears of excitement.

"You, send a few representatives out, since you have picked up a weapon, you must know how to use the weapon in your hand, if you want to go to the battlefield, you must understand the rules of going to the battlefield, otherwise, you just go to die, do you understand?" Zhao Wenli didn't make much effort this time, and the blacks understood, and quickly introduced six young and strong representatives out of the crowd and stood in front of Zhao Wenli respectfully.

"Sir, please give us an order, we can do whatever we want, as long as we live and no longer be enslaved by those people." Although his speech was a little slurred, with the help of Chen Weidong, Zhao Wenli finally understood.

"In the future, they will listen to them, and they will make you real soldiers." Zhao Wenli pulled over Sun Zhengguang, who was already excited, who was standing on the side, "Little Sun, your work is here again." ”

"Why me again, I've trained several batches of people." Sun Zhengguang looked bitter and injured.

"You pretend, get cheap and sell well, and now the coalition forces are there, but all of them only recognize you. Go ahead, it won't be long before you have a lot of younger brothers. Zhao Wenli angrily pushed him in front of the people.

"Sir, salute." The black representative gave a stupid military salute, and the other blacks also learned to put their hands in front of their foreheads in a disorderly manner.

Sun Zhengguang left happily with hundreds of black people, and Zhao Wenli put his hands behind his back with satisfaction, looking at the gradual relaxation of the black people, and also showed a satisfied smile.

Xu Yongquan also let out a long sigh, and had to sigh convincingly, in the face of this situation, a straight soldier like himself really can't take it. It's no wonder that Zhou Wenqian will look at Zhao Wenli differently now.

searched the crowd with a lot of heart, but found that Zhou Wenqian's beautiful big eyes were looking at Zhao Wenli affectionately at the moment, and couldn't help but add infinite sadness. It seems that in order to achieve the task that everyone has discussed together, so that the seeds of his old Xu family can take root and spread on the American continent as soon as possible, he really has to learn from Er Chen and develop among the Indian girls, Miss Xiao Zhou, is not his dish. It should be said that he is not the dish of the little Zhou girl.

However, Zhou Wenqian and Zhao Wenli are a team of travel friends, traveling together for more than ten days, and there is no spark for Zhao Wenli, and they will actually fall in love in such an environment, is Zhao Wenli really the protagonist's halo upper body, thinking of this, Xu Yongquan couldn't help but add countless sadness.

Sun Zhengguang and others trained a total of 3,000 Indian coalition troops before and after, and now the task of arming the defense has basically been handed over to the coalition forces, and the crossing is only responsible for guiding the various units.

The main force of 1,500 elite troops was deployed on the first line of Little Rock, always ready to guard against the counterattack of the Americans, and the city of Cherokee (Tulsa) in the north was defended with 500 men, and Foster City, because it was already on the second line, only 300 main troops remained, and there were 500 auxiliary troops, responsible for guarding food and weapons, and being responsible for the transfer of materials. The city of Choctaw in the south also stationed 500 main troops, and then Choctaw's young men assisted in the defense, so that the main force left in the city of Tokyo was less than 200 people, but if these 500 black troops were added, as long as there was no trouble in the surrounding area, it could cope with it for a while.

More than 600 blacks, among whom 500 young and strong, and another 100 or so infirm, were handed over to Hu Jiaqing to lead, and a new settlement was established in the middle of Tokyo and Foster City, about the equivalent of the later Yufula Reservoir.

Because of the experience of their previous lives, the traversers did not dare to pin all their hopes for the future on the Indians, and keeping these blacks to learn to cultivate with them could be regarded as adding strength to themselves.

Hu Jiaqing is very aggrieved, he feels good about himself as a doctor of finance, but he has traveled to the American continent, but there is no place for him, and these days can suffocate him. Therefore, when he was idle, he plucked Wu Yue and vigorously tinkered with those individual radio stations and solar chargers.

The individual radio stations were damaged to varying degrees during the crossing, but with their efforts, they were actually repaired, and the three individual radio stations are now one in Little Rock, one in Foster City, and one in Tokyo, and the solar power supply is not very sufficient, but in case of emergency, it can still quickly transmit information between several cities.

After doing this, they finally squeezed out a solar charger for themselves, turned on the tablet computer they brought, and without hesitation, Zhu Linlin immediately deleted some personal items that might have been lost, but what surprised them next was that there was a full set of college tutorials for the two of them in the computer - finance major, agriculture and clothing design major, this pair, is it really ready to cross over a long time ago, and such a useful thing was also brought over.

Therefore, with these agricultural tutorials and Hu Jiaqing's self-taught agricultural knowledge at university, experimenting with some useful agricultural knowledge on these black people has become the most urgent task for Hu Jiaqing.

Not only professionals like Hu Jiaqing, but also all the fighters of the airborne corps were also summoned, and according to their own wishes, only about 30 people were willing to continue to carry guns, and they would serve as future company and platoon commanders to fill the black army and consolidate and strengthen the combat strength of the black army regiment. The Indian coalition army has basically been trained, and only a dozen or so people are left to guide the team, and by the way, they can also control this unit to a certain extent.

Although many people took off their military uniforms, they still did not feel at ease to give up their guns in the complex land of the Americas, so except for a few people such as Zhang Bin, the others continued to keep their automatic rifles, and Steve and Encas, who could carry this advanced weapon, became the envy of all Indians.

Xu Yongquan personally served as the commander of the army division, and the three regiment commanders were each led by himself, one each of Jon and Cui Sikai, and Sun Zhengguang served as the head of the teaching regiment without surprise.

Basically, before enlisting in the army, college students chose their original majors, even if they can't do anything now, but when all the simple things are shared by blacks and Indians, they take the time to recall what they have learned before, and then start to prepare for the cultivation of their own talents and collect the necessary materials.

But it seems that except for Feng Zicai, who studied architecture, and Zhou Xiang, an internist who has half a bucket of water, there are some practical things to do, and the others can only do some things on paper.

Hardware, machinery, chemicals, energy, food, medical care, and military weapons are all empty now. Even if they cry and beg Zhao Wenli, the big boss, what is the use.

However, Wu Yue and Zhu Linlin soon made a big discovery.

After the coalition forces took Little Rock and transported many things that they thought were useful to Tokyo City, they found three Jenny spinning machines that had fallen apart in a farm in Little Rock.

Although the people who have experienced modern industry have no impression of this very old thing, these somewhat dilapidated spinning machines have undoubtedly opened up a wide range of ideas for many Indians who are still confined to animal skins.

As early as the last era, an Englishman named Hargreaves accidentally kicked and invented a spinning machine that could spin eight yarns at the same time, and named it Jenny Spinning Machine after his daughter, which greatly improved the efficiency of spinning in one fell swoop.

Today, hydro-driven yarn drives are widely used in spinning technology, and the spinning machine, which is still operated by hand, has apparently been abandoned by the Americans. But for Wu Yue, who has figured out the screw bearings and the like, these magical things made of wood have undoubtedly opened up his thinking.

Coupled with the carpenter of the smuggling team, the exquisite craftsmanship of Li Huaming, a carpenter of Mune, they quickly restored these spinning machines, and used their later mechanical knowledge, with the role of water power, and soon imitated more than a dozen more advanced spinning machines.

Little Rock had seized a lot of cotton, and they were soon able to recruit dozens of Cherokee women to work at the price of three pounds of grain a dayβ€”the grain was seized from Little Gutou anyway, and they were considered waste, so that the Travelers finally had their own business, at least economically, and were no longer dependent on the Indians for supplies.

Zhu Linlin, who already has a big belly, seems to have found the joy of work, and she is trying to make new patterns with those cotton cloths that are half a centimeter thick, but the cotton cloth only has one color, white, so she forces her husband Hu Jiaqing to help him find a way to fix the dye every day, but Hu Jiaqing has never failed chemistry before, how can she help her.

So, he pestered Wu Yue every day, and started to design a water-driven loom, and the two almost reached the point of inseparability.

Fortunately, when they surrounded the small rivers and streams near Yufra and finally brought the spinning machine and loom out, Hu Jiaqing finally breathed a sigh.

"Stingy ghost, what's yours is yours, don't believe me, can your child run away in my belly?" Zhu Linlin glanced at him angrily, "I'm not doing this for everyone's good, seeing that the weather is getting warmer, we can't continue to wear fur clothes, then we will really become savages." ”

According to the results of the discussions, the income of all industries is divided equally between individuals and collectives, so that those who are bent on fighting, or who are still thinking about how to start their own business, do not worry about having no income.

Personal property is duly protected, and in this strange land, it is tacitly recognized by everyone.

In the midst of the hectic and hectic, everyone finally had a preliminary division of labor for the future work, knew the direction they needed to work on, and it was too late to start preparing materials. However, when they all put themselves into their own work, they were surprised to find that the two Er Chen, who were often mischievous, had disappeared for a long time?
