"Roar—"

Listening to the continuous screams not far away, Xiong's heart couldn't help but be anxious, and his skill "The more he fights, the more brave he becomes", is stimulated, and his bravery value temporarily rises to six stars.

The frequency of the bear's attacks rises again, and the injuries on the Hyena Queen's body begin to increase rapidly.

"Ah......h

Eventually, the Hyena Queen was beheaded, and her final howl was only half heard.

The hyena queen meant, and the hyenas who had lost their command suddenly messed around like headless flies, and everyone suddenly began to kill indiscriminately.

Seeing this, several hyenas on this trip, who were second only to the hyena queen in size, hurriedly howled again and again, and each fled with a part of the hyenas.

The battle ended with the loss of more than half of the hyena herd.

Although there were no casualties on the Xia tribe's side, more than 20 soldiers were scratched and bitten, although each of them had the wound medicine prepared by the tribe, but hyenas, scavengers, carried a large number of bacteria on their claws, so in the end, they could only resign themselves to fate.

Subsequently, everyone mended all the hyenas that were not dead, but unfortunately the meat of this scavenger could not be eaten, so they had to burn it.

The group rested in the field for one night, and after eating some dried meat early the next morning, they continued on their way.

Over the next few days, they marched towards the mountain where the tin ore had been found, and under the leadership of the leopard, they searched for the tribes that were nestled in the grasslands.

Last time, it took only five days for the white wolf to reach the tin mine from the rainforest, and this time, it took seven days for the bear to reach the tin mine from the edge of the rainforest.

However, the harvest was still very large, and they captured more than 400 natives during this time.

When they arrived at the tin mines, Leopard and Green Sheep distributed ore mining tools to the natives and let them start collecting tin ore, while Bear, with thirty axes and shields, roamed the grasslands to hunt and bring back more natives.

Over time, the number of natives gathered in the tin mines reached 1,000, but inexplicably, these people did not think of resisting at all, and still diligently mined tin ore every day.

In fact, it is very easy to understand, these people come from different tribes, some only see each other and even have blood feuds, it is good to be together without incident, and resist.

In addition, in the old days, they often did not have enough to eat, and they had to endure attacks by wild beasts, and one night their brothers, who slept in the same tent as them, were taken away.

Now, they just have to work every day, they will have food to fill their stomachs, and they don't have to worry about being attacked by wild beasts, they are stupid to resist.

......

[Your troops have been outside for seven days, have you been transferred back?] 】

"No."

"Before you know it, it's been seven days." Xia Qi said in a low voice.

According to Yang Guang, the duration of the invasion war is a minimum of 7 days and a maximum of 30 days, and if it is determined that there is no danger and the other side still has ore, of course, the longer the stay, the better.

Then, Xia Qi began to be busy with the things at hand again.

During this time, the Yushan tribe has already transported two batches of salt water, which have been boiled into salt by him, and Xia Qi asked the room to add salt to the food a few days ago.

The food made with salt is widely appreciated by the people.

Later, Xia Qi announced that anyone who worked for the tribe could all receive salt rewards.

From public ownership to private ownership, it is easier said than done, and this salt is the first step of Xia Qi's trial.

Originally, with the rapid expansion of the tribe, it was inevitable that there would be some lazy people in the tribe, who only knew how to eat and did not know how to work, which was a great burden for the tribe.

Now, with the encouragement of Yanba, all departments have burst with amazing vitality, and even the progress of building the city wall has increased considerably.

Because the engineering team rewards salt at the highest rate in the tribe, more people join it.

This is also a bonus.

Things are going to be good for some time, and there are even cases in the tribes that salt is being exchanged for animal skins, or jerky is being exchanged for salt.

Of course, Xia Qi was supportive of this, and he even found a vacant land in the tribe and designated it as a market for people to barter.

[Your civilization has a commercial behavior, reward 100 civilization points, 10 culture points]

For the game prompts that pop up from time to time, Xia Qi is already surprised, and he will not be as happy as he was at the beginning of these rewards.

But then again, as the tribe grows, the system will pop up from time to time to show a sense of presence, and the frequency of this time is becoming more and more frequent.

If it weren't for the fact that there was no blocking option, Xia Qi would have to block him, it would be too annoying.

A few more days passed like this, and then, the city wall that Xia Qi had been thinking about was finally nearing completion!

Hearing the report of the engineering team, Xia Qi's whole mood was obviously excited, it is not easy to build a city wall in this era, he has worked hard for many months, and he can't help but wipe a handful of bitter tears when he thinks about it.

The completed wall was five bears high, that is, more than ten meters. The four walls are five miles long and eight meters wide, and there are stairs at all four corners of the city wall for easy access to and down. In the eyes of later generations, this is at best a clay enclosure, but in this era, it is an amazing creation.

The entire wall has been largely completed, and all that is missing is a break in the details and the installation of the gates. Each of the four walls of the city now has a gate hole that is three meters wide and five meters high.

This time, the gate has a suspension bridge replaced with a gate, which is made of iron birch wood, and is four meters wide and eight meters high. It took nearly three months to polish and make the four-sided gates, and this was with the presence of bronze tools.

There is a groove in the gate, and the gate is placed in it.

When there is a real battle, directly put down the gate, the gate is twice as hard as steel, and trying to break through the city gate is definitely a nightmare for those enemy troops.

The placement of the city gate needs to be done by Xia Qi himself, after all, in the entire city gate structure, a set of pulley sets are needed to drive it, except for Xia Qi, other people in the tribe obviously can't figure it out, as for letting him teach this group of people who haven't even graduated from prenatal education to learn junior high school physics, forget it, just thinking about it, the brain starts to hurt.

After assembling the mechanism of a whole roller skating group, with the installation of the city gate, a whole circle of outer city walls was suddenly connected together, controlling the excitement in his heart, Xia Qi raised his hand and signaled the people of the construction team to start turning the two wheels placed in the city gate.

The two men who came out of the team glanced at each other, as one of the members of the construction team that made this city gate, how heavy this city gate was, they knew in their hearts that when they carried it, they were more than a dozen adult men working together, and it was not easy to move here.

Although the city gate was made according to the design drawings, they could not imagine what such a heavy city gate would have to do to open it again once it was closed.

"Do it, hold that grip, and turn the wheel in front of you." Looking at the two of them standing there stupidly, not knowing what to do, Xia Qi explained a little.

Out of loyalty to Xia Qi, although both of them felt a little inexplicable in their hearts, they still did it honestly, holding their hands on the long grip, and then began to exert force at the same time, but the wheel in front of them was basically not moving, which made the two of them subconsciously glance at Xia Qi's location, "Leader......"

"With all your might, don't worry about breaking it, this thing isn't that fragile."

Hearing Xia Qi's words, the two exchanged a look, and began to exert force on the wheel again, and it was obvious that the muscles on their arms were constantly bulging......

With a sound of 'click, click, click' into the ears of the two, before they could look back, a burst of irrepressible exclamations came from the mouths of the nearby onlookers, "The city gate, the city gate has risen!" ”

"Rising?" At this time, the two people who were facing away from the city gate and pushing the wheel with all their might were stunned at the same time.

After they turned the wheel to the limit, and then according to Xia Qi's instructions, they stuck the wheel with the buckle that had been prepared on the side, and the two of them, who had been impatient, didn't have time to take a breath, and hurriedly turned around to look at the city gate behind them. It's really rising?! ”

Looking at the city gate rising high, at this moment, even if the facts were already in front of them, the two of them still couldn't believe that their eyes had really risen? The city gate, which required a dozen people to barely lift, was raised by the strength of the two of them just now?

How exactly is this done? It's really incredible, everyone who doesn't know what the 'roller skating group' is, can only keep marveling at the magic of this scene in front of them, and looking at Xia Qi's eyes, they become more reverent.

After all, the previous suspension bridge was just a rope that was hard-pulled.

[You have built the "City Wall", Xia Tribe Habitability +1]

The sudden system prompt made Xia Qi's expression stunned.

"By the way, what is this habitability?" Xia Qi muttered a little puzzled.

It seems that Yang Guang was right before, the rankless rank is a novice village, and it is only after he really enters the bronze rank that the true face of the civilized battlefield officially begins to show his true face.

With a puzzled mood, Xia Qi sent a message to Yang Guang and asked about livability.

Yang Guang: Livability? Have you unlocked the livability?

Xia Qi: I built a city wall, and then the system prompted me that the habitability of my tribe had increased a little.

Yang Guang: ...... It stands to reason that the habitability thing will not appear until the player advances to the bronze rank, and it seems that the amount of work on your city wall is not small.

Xia Qi: It's okay, it's just a dirt fence.

Yang Guang: Livability is very important, every bit of livability can improve the work efficiency of the people in the territory by 10%, and when the livability increases to a certain extent, it can even improve the loyalty of the people, which can be understood as the comfort of everyone's residence, so the work efficiency becomes higher, and it is pleasing to the eye even to look at. However, the livability is not so easy to stack, it is not easy to stack the livability of a tribe or city to the point of +3, with the development of the city, there will be more people, there will definitely be people dissatisfied, some people are dissatisfied, and some people will reduce the livability.

Hearing Yang Guang say this, Xia Qi subconsciously checked the livability of the Xia tribe, +4.

Daxia Lake adds three points of habitability to the Xia tribe, plus one point given by the city wall, isn't it four points?

Later, Xia Qi checked the three tribes of Black Gold, Qingyan, and Yushan, and the livability displayed on them was +0.

According to Yang Guang, the livability will not be displayed until the player advances to the bronze rank, but it does not mean that it will not work in the non-rank. After all, this habitability is effective for the tribal people.

"No wonder I feel that the work speed of the Xia tribe is much faster than that of other tribes, it turns out that this is the case. Xia Qi rubbed his chin and pondered.

Xia Qi: I see, I understand, because there is a city wall, the people of my tribe will live more safely in the future, everyone does not have to worry, life is comfortable, so naturally, the livability has also increased, right?

Yang Guang: Well, there's nothing wrong with that......

It can only be said that Xia Qi's luck is really good, and he directly found such a feng shui treasure as Daxia Lake.

However, he thought about it, with such a huge Great Xia Lake, there would definitely be no fewer tribes around it, and he didn't know if this habitability would only work for players, or if it would treat natives and players equally.

To get back to the point, the construction of the city wall has allowed Xia Qi to completely establish an absolute advantage in this primitive era, and a big project like this, it is a dream for other tribes in this era to want to build it! The most important step in his early development plan was finally completed at this moment!
