Chapter 167: A Black Cauldron
Soft armor takes into account both defense and flexibility, and can be worn under clothing, and now Purple Flower's full set of armor is still very bulky, and if you can combine soft armor with leather armor in the future, you won't need to wear such heavy armor.
"Let the bluegrass tribe choose materials to make shields on the spot, we brought two rolls of iron sheets, and try to make as many round shields as possible."
The strength of the tribe is not only judged by the strength of the weapons, but also the equipment and armor that can reflect the growing strength of the purple flower.
Not only is the Bluegrass tribe preparing for the future battle, but the river valley tribe is also in full swing.
They were busy adapting to new weapons and equipment.
The weapons sold by the Baiyan tribe are somewhat different from those of the Purple Flower Tribe, and the new equipment goes to the battlefield without practice, which can be described as a thousand miles away from people's heads, and the courtesy is light and affectionate.
However, as a tribe that has been fighting all year round, this difficulty is not difficult for them.
In the past, the river valley tribe had a special martial arts training ground, but at that time, the martial arts training ground was relatively simple, just a flat land, and the training content was also hand-to-hand combat.
Now there are arrow targets and scarecrows in the arena, where you can practice bows and arrows, as well as spears and machetes.
Tianyin and Yueling also appeared in the martial arts arena at this time.
"How's the training going?"
Tenyin asked the team leader.
"The bow and arrow of the White Rock Tribe are not as flexible as the Purple Flower Tribe."
The thing is cheap and really of poor quality.
"Let's keep training."
If the quality is a little flawed, you can only make up for it by the quantity.
Weapons training inevitably has wear and tear, broken arrow shafts, damaged arrow feathers, falling arrows, because of a variety of circumstances, arrows maintain a certain rate of attrition in training.
The arches and compound bows sold by the Purple Flower Tribe once came with a maintenance package, and novice weapon dealers like the Baiyan tribe did not have this service, so the people of the River Valley could only copy the maintenance methods of the Purple Flower and use them on new weapons.
As a result, weapons that have been damaged by improper maintenance account for a portion of the loss.
"It's good that we have a good family."
Looking at the training scene, Yue Ling couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
"I'm afraid that the general will have an opinion."
Tianyin looked at the wreckage of the eliminated weapon, and her heart was a little worried.
"I heard that yesterday the Great General pulled off a compound bow."
The river valley tribe can't produce bows and arrows on their own, so they can only buy them from Baiyan or Zihua, and buy weapons from other tribes, which is not the best choice.
It's a pity that no one can understand this truth, whether it is for the people or for Hongyu.
"Anyway, if something happens, it's all the fault of the altar."
There is no way, the two of them are here to take the blame.
The Sun and Moon Twins won't believe it, what happened yesterday, they haven't been troubled today, in fact, thanks to Shanshan.
"Being able to break a heavy bow shows that the patriarch is brave!"
The reverence in Sanshan's eyes was full of reverence.
"Hah, you can talk!"
After listening to Shanshan's compliment, Hongyu's originally irritable mood eased a little.
It's just that he looked at the broken bow in his hand and pouted disdainfully.
These shoddy things of the river valley tribe are not worthy of his heroism!
"Although the quality of the weapons of the Baiyan tribe is not very good, the sacrificial platform must also be for the sake of saving money for the tribe, and the Purple Flower Tribe really can't come and go for a long time."
Shanshan waited for Hongyu to change his clothes and wipe his body, while knocking on the side as if he was inadvertent.
"You also think there's something wrong with the Purple Flower Tribe?"
Hong Yu snorted coldly, the sacrificial platform wanted to save money, and it was all saved on his head as a patriarch.
"Shanshan is not smart, and I don't know why the priest doesn't trade with the Purple Flower Tribe, but that tribe makes ceramics and has a lot of interesting little things......"
Shanshan frowned, her rosy lips pursed slightly, and her eyes narrowed, as if she was trying to think.
"At least it shows that they have a lot of flowers."
She nodded, as if to add credibility to her conclusions.
"Don't think about this, you have to learn from the sacrificial platform!"
Hongyu stared at him, but his tone of scolding Shanshan was not harsh, and he couldn't be angry with the beautiful scenery in front of him.
"I don't understand this either, I just need to believe in the patriarch! The patriarch will definitely lead us to a good life! ”
Shanshan stuck out her tongue and didn't think about it anymore, just concentrated on holding the kettle, lowering her eyelashes and pouring water for Hongyu.
She had no contact with the Purple Flower Tribe, but she understood that a tribe could become strong in a few years and have the influence it has today, and the decision-makers of this tribe were definitely not mediocre.
Shanshan smiled meekly at Hongyu, and assessed the man in front of her.
He's not the one who sits on the world.
If she hadn't been on the same camp, Shanshan and the altar would have been a good fit.
Even if the River Valley Patriarch Hong Yu was not angry about pulling the broken bow, the weapons of the River Valley tribe were too poor, and the rumors of the wrong decision-making of the sacrificial platform gradually spread among the tribe.
"This really doesn't work."
Some of the warriors were injured by a mistake in operation, and there had never been a similar situation in the previous training with the Purple Flower Tribe's weapons.
The facts are there, which makes the tribesmen complain even more.
"Yes, but the weapons of the White Rock tribe are cheap."
"The strength of our river valley tribe still needs to be cheap?"
"The broken part is also bought with money."
I don't know if there is an ulterior motive in these voices, for the sacrificial platform, they can't explain it at all, let alone refute it, who makes the gap in the quality of weapons really exist, and they can't erase this gap out of thin air.
"Are we just going to let things get out of hand?"
Yue Ling came back from walking outside, his whole face was round with anger, and he rushed over to complain to his brother, hoping that Tianyin could come up with a good solution.
"What good can I do, I'm about to set off, and when the time comes, I'll defeat the Bluegrass Tribe, naturally no one cares about this."
Tianyin knows that the best response now is to carry their black cauldron on their backs, and they will not be shaken by the wind and rain, as long as it drags on, this matter will definitely be over.
But the people are forgetful, and when there is something new, they will not pay attention to this anymore.
What's more, after taking the Blue Grass Tribe, the entire north side is a monopoly, and the River Valley Tribe will reach an ore deal with the White Rock Tribe, and study how to make weapons by themselves, and the reputation of the sacrificial platform will soon be restored.
If they fight back now, if the patriarch still prepares a backhand, the two of them will easily get into trouble.
What's more, the troops are about to be dispatched, and the people can't feel the discord between the leaders, and the fluctuation of the army's morale will increase the casualties.
"We're just going to wait?"
Yue Ling lay on the table, poking the table hard, he was unwilling, but he also understood that his brother was right.
