【178】The new ecology of the Huangqiu tribe
Early morning.
All the Huangqiu people, including the eel captives, stood near the ditch on the south side of the meadow, watching the completion of this last wall, and as the thick tree trunks slid along the artificially piled mounds into the ravine, the third wall gradually took shape, and when the ravines were all filled with the trunks that the Huangqiu tribe had already prepared, the last wall was truly completed.
Everyone witnessed it excitedly and looked forward to the moment when it was completed, because it meant that the Huangqiu tribe would usher in a real fortification, and three five-meter-high, two-meter-thick walls would enclose the entire Huangqiu tribe, expanding the tribe's controllable area from the original grass to a full 900 square meters.
Rumble!
Under the watchful eye of everyone, the last trunk of the tree finally slipped into the last gap in the ravine, and was tightly attached to the trunk next to it, becoming inseparable, without a single gap between each other.
With the settlement of this tree, it also means that the Huangqiu tribe has carried out the wall construction plan for more than 20 days officially and successfully, and these three tree walls will become the first line of defense of the Huangqiu tribe in the event of enemy invasion, which is of great significance.
However, with the completion of the wall, a question suddenly emerged in the hearts of the Huangqiu people, that is, these three tree walls have no doors, how can they enter and exit normally?
Xiong Sickle also asked Shen Nong directly without hesitation, after all, although the Huangqiu tribe now has a lot of resources plundered from the eel tribe, there is no need to worry about food at present, but even if there is more food, if no one continues to replenish it, it will be eaten up one day, and then the Huangqiu tribe will still have to send a collection team and a hunting team to go out to find food, and there is no place for people to enter and exit these tree walls, which is really a bit troublesome.
"The problem of the clansmen's access, let's use a soft ladder to solve it first, I plan to build three more treehouses on these three walls, corresponding to three directions, to act as guard towers, each treehouse is equipped with two ordinary clansmen, they can help everyone monitor the situation outside the wall, in case there is an enemy approaching us will not know. Shen Nong raised his head and said.
The height of these walls is about five meters, which is considered to be very high, and because the trunks of the trees that make up the walls are very thick, if the branches and branches on the top of the trees are cut off, then the people of the Huangqiu tribe can walk freely above the walls.
In this case, a treehouse that allows people to stay in it and act as sentinel guards is particularly important, they are equivalent to the eyes of the Huangqiu tribe to the outside world, but whenever there is any movement in the forest, the Huangqiu sentinels hiding in the treehouse can find it at the first time and quickly convey it to the people of Huangqiu living behind the wall.
Shen Nong's proposal was not objected to, all the Huangqiu people agreed, although every time they went out in the future, they had to rely on the soft ladder to climb up and down, which seemed quite troublesome, but after all, this was the meaning of the witch, and they didn't care to accept it, anyway, it didn't take much effort to climb a soft ladder.
"This wall is still only in its initial form, far from what I thought it would be, and I will have to renovate it when I have time. Shen Nong looked at the three walls and said secretly in his heart.
At present, the wall of the Huangqiu tribe looks like three rows of big trees close together from a distance, although it can be used as a wall, but in some details it has not been improved.
For example, every time you rely on a soft ladder to go up the wall, it must be very inconvenient in terms of efficiency and speed, if you can nail a log pillar into the trunk of the tree, and then continue to lift it to the top of the tree in a gradual shape, then the people of the Huangqiu tribe can use this kind of 'staircase' to walk up the wall in the future, which is much more convenient and faster than climbing the soft ladder.
Although there were a lot of construction ideas flashing in Shen Nong's mind at the moment, in view of the fact that those eel captives had been working non-stop for many days, Shen Nong was worried that if they continued to work, they would be exhausted to death, and the Huangqiu tribe would lose a large group of laborers, so for the sake of recyclable free labor, Shen Nong decided to let these slaves rest for a few days, recuperate and wait for the next big project of the Huangqiu tribe.
"Wu, when are we going to build that treehouse you just mentioned?" Cang walked up to Shen Nong and asked.
As Shen Nong continued to come up with some new ideas, Cang, Pan, Guanjia, and Beibang could be said to be completely in love with the construction, and they were obsessed with the feeling of new things being made, but anything mentioned by Shen Nong's mouth, as long as it could be successfully made, they would be fully satisfied.
So when they heard Shen Nong say that they would build three tree houses on the wall, the four of them immediately became excited.
"Don't worry, the safety standards of the house built on the tree are much stricter than the house built on the ground, if the tree house is not built strong enough, if it suddenly falls apart one day, then the sentry guards staying in the tree house will be dangerous. Shen Nong comforted the four of them: "Don't worry, let's wait until I have time to draw the structural diagram of the tree house, and then we will build it." ”
"Okay. Cang Siren said helplessly.
"By the way, how have you done with the orchards and farmland? Have you divided the basic area? In the future, if we have the conditions, we can expand the area again, but now we must not make a mistake. Shen Nong asked.
"We've all divided the witches, the orchard is in that area, and the farmland is in this area. Northbang pointed to the northeast corner and the southeast corner.
With the three walls surrounding the Huangqiu tribe, the land area within the wall was fixed to about 900 square meters.
The original meadow was still the residence of the Huangqiu people, and on the north side of the meadow, that is, against the northern wall, was a row of cells for slaves.
More than 20 steps to the left of the cell, there is a cowpen and a wooden cage, where the white cow and the gray gull are locked respectively, and the slave Pu Xu is responsible for cleaning this area and managing the sanitation of this corner, to put it bluntly, it is to sweep cow dung and sweep cow dung.
To the right of the cell, under the eastern wall, is the embryonic orchard of the Huangqiu tribe, where all the berry trees and berry bushes dug up by the Huangqiu people have been transplanted, and it is unknown how many plants will survive in the end.
Not far from the south of the grassland is the execution ground set up by Shen Nong, and thirty steps to the left of the execution ground, at the foot of the mound, is the inner hollow with a reservoir and a frog pond, but because the ditch can directly lead to the Baize water source, there are not many people in the Huangqiu tribe who will use the reservoir anymore.
Not far to the east of the grassland is the ditch that the Huangqiu people had worked so hard to dig from Bai Ze.
At the corner where the east and south walls intersect is the newly planned farmland area of the Huangqiu tribe, which echoes the orchard area to the north.
This is the current situation within the Huangqiu tribe.
Shen Nong knew that if he wanted to make a tribe strong and powerful, it was absolutely impossible to rely on his own strength, and he had to cultivate some clansmen who could take charge of themselves, so Shen Nong entrusted the task of building orchards and farmland to the four of Cang.
Facts have proved that the work ability of these four people is also quite good, and the construction they have done can make Shen Nong feel quite satisfied, and it seems that in the future, if they have any things that they lack skills, they can be entrusted to the four of them to do.
