Chapter 90: The Stone Dynasty
For Wang Chong, if he wants to unify the Great Wilderness, the most important things are three points.
First population. This has been moving in a good direction.
This stems from the fertile land of the wasteland, as well as the dense jungles and boundless herds of beasts.
Therefore, since the unification of these tribes, once the social order is regulated, the population immediately shows explosive growth.
He doesn't need to worry about this anymore.
Second, it is capacity.
Capacity is very important, and between these villages, some villages are rich in timber, some have more grain, and some have more cattle and sheep.
This creates an imbalance in materials, so a strong capacity is needed to dispatch each other.
On the other hand, it is marching and fighting, which requires higher capacity.
In the past, he was limited by the transportation capacity, and Wang Chong basically fought several tribes, and he had to rest for a month or two to repair, because he was afraid that the logistics would not be able to keep up, which would lead to the instability of the army.
But now that there were horses, as wooden carts were built in batches, Wang Zhong arranged for a dozen horses to be responsible for pulling things.
Population, capacity, all worked out, and now only the most important thing remains, equipment
Equipment is a top priority.
In the past, the weapons used by the soldiers were stone knives and stone axes, which were too heavy to mention, and they were very easy to break, not to mention the sharpness, which was simply touching.
As for the desolate slaves, they can only use wooden spears, which are very easy to break.
But now it's different.
Iron ore and coal mines have been found, although limited by their substandard technology, they cannot make very good quality iron.
But no matter how bad iron is, it is better than stone tools.
To this end, after the coal mines were transported to the Malaysian tribe, Wang Chong and the stonemasons began to build a place for striking iron.
First, coal is burned, and iron ore is placed on top of the burning coal.
Due to the constraints, Wang Zhong found that they could only barely burn the iron ore soft, and after the iron ore was soft, the stonemasons took the stone hammer and smashed the iron ore into the shape they wanted.
A year has passed, and through the unremitting efforts of everyone, iron swords, iron knives, and iron hammers have been manufactured in batches in the ironsmithing factory.
Looking at a weapon that is harder than a stone, everyone is excited.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Chong was already twenty-five.
Now his residence has moved to the Malaysian tribe, where he lives in a three-storey wooden house.
On this day, the stone tribe ushered in the new year, Wang Zhong and the high-level of the stone tribe stood on the top of the wooden building, looking at the black crowd below, and officially announced that the stone tribe was officially named the stone dynasty.
This year, the first year of the founding of the Stone Dynasty, the first monarch, wood.
Wang Zhong officially ascended the throne as emperor and proclaimed himself the title of King of Stone.
Of course, in fact, Wang Zhong didn't care much about this.
But without these, in order to give everyone a sense of belonging, in order to dominate the wilderness, he needs to build a country and become an emperor and establish himself as a king
"Stone King, Stone King, Stone King"
Everyone below raised their hands in high and cheered for their first emperor, the Stone King.
The state was established, but Wang Zhong did not slacken.
The life expectancy of a deserted man is not high, fifty is considered a high lifespan, and there is not much time left for him.
So, from the beginning of the day, he arranged for skilled riders to go out in all directions to investigate the surrounding situation.
As for the jungle, he also organized a large force to enter the interior in search of other exits.
After all, the desolate people have lived in the great wilderness for generations, and they really know too little about this world.
In the following time, Wang Chong's external expansion rate became faster and faster, and countless large and small tribes were swallowed up.
And Wang Chong is also gradually approaching the edge of the Great Wilderness.
At the same time, the Stone Dynasty began to be known to people from the outside world, and people who were far away from the Great Wilderness Land Realm got a terrifying news, and a Stone Dynasty suddenly appeared in the Great Wilderness, sweeping the major tribes of the Great Wilderness in less than ten years, and the strength had never been seen before.
Of course, these Wang Zhong didn't know, but he also noticed that something was wrong.
That is, as the troops have been advancing towards the outside world, the tribes of desolate people he encountered have become stronger and stronger, and some tribes not only have horses, but even iron tools have been found in the tribes.
At first, Wang Chong thought that they had left it, but then he found out that it was not.
"Chief, this is the leader of the Iron Bull Tribe, Da Tie, we found iron tools in his tribe."
Among the tribes at the front, a group of warriors escorted a strong man in bondage.
Wang Chong frowned and looked at this person, this person's Iron Bull tribe was the most powerful tribe he had encountered in so long.
There were three hundred warriors, thousands of squires and slaves, and most importantly, a cavalry force of about fifty people.
It was this cavalry unit that caused Wang Chong to encounter trouble for the first time and suffered heavy losses.
Fortunately, he quickly assembled the iron spear troops and fought hard to solve this small cavalry force.
And Da Tie, the leader of the Iron Bull Tribe, was also successfully captured by him.
"You are the leader of the Iron Bull Tribe, very good, you are the strongest tribe that my Stone Dynasty has encountered."
Wang Chong looked at Da Tie who was kneeling on the ground and continued: "Yesterday, our army broke your cavalry, and you fled with your family overnight, I would like to know where you want to flee. ”
"Needless to say, if you want to kill or chop, whatever." Da Tie closed his eyes and said with a generous and righteous look.
"Bring it on." The king commanded.
"Yes"
Several people dragged Da Tie's wife and daughter up, and Wang Chong said coldly: "These people are your family." ”
"What do you want?" Da Tie's eyes twitched, he thought for a while, and threatened: "I advise you not to mess around, the forces behind us are not something you can afford to provoke." ”
So is it?
Wang Zhong smiled secretly.
After occupying the Iron Bull Tribe, Wang Zhong found something interesting.
This tribe had iron weapons, cavalry, and a large population.
But the problem is that this tribe has no place to smelt iron, and the breeding of horses is very ordinary, so he concluded that these things are not produced by the Iron Ox tribe itself.
That is, this tribe is shrouded by a powerful state.
It's a bit like ancient times, where every country had satellite states on its side, and these satellite states became outposts of the great protectors.
Of course, these satellite countries will also be protected by these big powers, and they all need each other anyway.
"Then tell me what forces are behind you." Wang Zhong asked.
"Great Heavenly Empire" Da Tie said coldly: "The Great Heavenly Empire is not something you can afford to provoke, although you have also produced iron weapons, but whether it is the army or the number, it is impossible to compare with them. ”
"The Great Celestial Empire."
Wang Zhong chuckled in his heart, this world is also ancient.
He always thought that the world he lived in was a tribe, but now it seems that this is a bit like the ancient Tang and Song dynasties.
The Tang and Song dynasties were the Great Celestial Empire, and they resembled the peoples of the prairie.
