Chapter 8 The Dream of a New Base

"Then I'll thank you in advance, Red Cloud!" "Anyway, I'd like to see your father, and there are some things that would be better to talk about," said Irakordo. ”

"Don't worry, turtledove! Wrap it up on me! Hongyun patted his chest and said: "My father, he beat me a little harder, but I want to fight him hard, and he can't beat me!" ”

"Haha!" Turtledove laughed.

At this time, Hongyun is like a spoiled bad boy.

He took pleasure in going against his father, but he didn't understand what his father's wings meant to him.

"Haha!" Hongyun also smirked.

Turtledove took out a stack of money from his pocket and handed it to Hongyun, but Hongyun waved his hand and refused.

"Icardove, I treat you as a brother, do you look down on me?"

Turtledove still can't help but stuff the money into Red Cloud's hand. "Brother to brother, you have to take this money-"

Hongyun threw the money in his hand into the sky, and the green paper fell one after another.

"Ikaruge, you should have given me this money! You wait, in three days, I will bring my old man to you! ”

"Becoming an Immortal"

With that, Hongyun pushed the door out without looking back.

The sturgeon and smoked fish looked at his high-spirited back, and couldn't help but sigh again and again: This posture of sprinkling money is handsome!

……

Now, the house is full of the original team of the turtledove tribe.

Peso silently took out the map and placed it on the table in front of the turtledove.

The giant hard brought the candlestick a little closer, and everyone gathered together.

"This will be our base from now on!"

Turtledove pointed to a place on the map.

He was referring to the Indian boarding school where they were now.

The school sits halfway up the mountain, and from the top of the hill there is a clear spring that meanders into the Yellowstone River in the distance.

More importantly, from the geographical point of view, the location of the school, guarding the road up the mountain, is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Whites must have chosen to establish schools here with this in mind.

When the turtledove observed this place from a distance during the day, he thought that if there was a condition in the future, a cannon would be erected on the top of the mountain, and it would be a ready-made fortress.

The white army wants to take this place, and it is not going to leave a thousand corpses, even if it can't even touch the door of this 'fortress'.

"Is the supplies counted?" Turtledove asked.

"It's roughly counted!" The watermill replied: "There is a warehouse full of flour, at least 10 tons or more, and in addition to corn, cured meat, salt, etc., there is plenty of food." There are more than 300 people in our team, save some food, and rely on these materials to hold on for half a year! ”

"K, such a broken school has hoarded so many supplies! The Sioux people can't even eat, and this bald old man can still have cheese! Giant Tough said indignantly.

"It's the same everywhere, it's hard, don't be naΓ―ve!" Peso looked accustomed to seeing the big world, and said lazily.

"β€”β€”We have more than 300 people, but also more than 200 students?" Turtledove said.

"Uh...... Yes, but the children eat less, and I checked the food consumption records in the kitchen, and they only consume an average of 10 pounds of flour a day......" said the water truck.

The turtledove stretched out his hand and stopped the waterwheel's words.

"We are an army of the Indians, and this was made clear from the first day of formation. It is impossible to treat them as harshly as those white people do, even if we ourselves are hungry, we can't let them go without food! ”

The watermill looked at the turtledove and nodded silently.

This is the turtledove!

If it weren't for such a turtledove, how could the watermill not hesitate to leave Anderson when he was at his most proud, and instead become a stone-thrower in the turtledove's team?

"Tomorrow, when the children are awake, ask them, and if they want to go home, they can go home – don't let them go on their own, spread the news and let their parents pick it up themselves!" Turtledove said.

"This will also reduce the pressure on our food a little!" The watermill said.

It's one thing to admire turtledoves, but as the commander of the Tonatiu legion, the watermill still needs to think about his team.

"That's right! I guess there is a benefit to this. Turtledove said.

"What if you really don't want to go home?" Giant hard can always find some strange blind spots.

"Don't want to go home? How can there be people who don't want to go home? "The peso habitually raised a bar.

"Do you think everyone's home is like our tribe? Peso, the collar marks on your neck haven't been washed yet, why have you forgotten what kind of day you were living before? Giant Hard laughed.

Biso touched his neck and sighed heavily. He lost this bar.

"Okay, if there are people who don't want to go home, then continue to live here!" Turtledove said. "Isn't the reason why we are here to open a new base? They are a group of residents of our new base. ”

A new base, if it is successfully opened, should have people, food, and trade, so that these poor little children will not be left to live.

In the future, there will be not only grain shops, markets, but even factories!

When the time comes, if you stand here and look around, you can also see the smoke billowing from the train......

Indians trade here, and the Yellowstone River at the foot of the mountain is crowded with cargo ships, and perhaps as Anderson said, the Indians can live in buildings more than 100 meters high......

The few people around the table didn't speak for a while, and they all fell into the imagination of the 'new base'.

Truth be told, when Ikaruga described the beautiful scene of the 'new base' to the tribe's elders' house, everyone listened with a daydreaming mood.

What steel mills, ships, trains...... Haha, the Indians never thought about these things.

Not to mention, turtledoves also want to make guns and medicines, which is also what the Indians can do?

If the person who said these words was not a turtledove, but Anderson or anyone else, it would have been a light beating.

However, since the person who said this was a turtledove, everyone also felt that it seemed to be ...... It seems like...... Right?

Why can't the Indians open coal mines, build factories, and build railroads?

Why did the Indians have to chase bison on the great plains, live in tents, and drink the southeast wind?

What the whites can do, the Indians will do! That's what Turtledove has been telling everyone.

From the moment the tribe in the forest of Madre built the first stone house, the turtledove was telling everyone, "We Indians are no worse than anyone else!" ”

That's why at the end of last year, when Ikaruga proposed to go north to build a new base, it would not be opposed by everyone.

It's been almost two years since the crossing, and after the inexhaustible indoctrination of the turtledove, as well as victory after victory, now, the more than 10,000 people in the turtledove tribe finally have a little bit like a whole nation!

Everyone finally has a pursuit for the future, instead of the previous "Forget it, although there is no future in lying down, it is quite comfortable!" ”

……

"Ahem!" With a light cough, the turtledove pulled everyone, including the water wheel, back from YY.

Ju Hard wiped the corners of his mouth embarrassedly, Peso laughed, and even the watermill pinched his palm to relieve the embarrassment of his distraction just now.

The sturgeon and smoked fish had fallen asleep on the table, snoring slightly between the wings of their noses.

"What I'm going to say next is top secret, don't tell anyone!" Turtledove said solemnly.
