Chapter 40: Annexation
In the summer of the eighth year of Yongping of Great Qi, a barbarian tribe joined the Black Bear Castle. This will naturally not be the first time in the history of Great Qi that barbarians have been subordinated. But for Du Xuan's Black Bear Fort, it was definitely a big deal. It will definitely be written into the history written by Du Xuan.
Half a month after Du Xuan returned to Black Bear Castle, the Black Bear Tribe finally came. Temur brought nearly 2,000 members of the Black Bear Tribe to Black Bear Castle.
Before the Black Bear Tribe came, several major families decided to hand over the position of patriarch of the Black Bear Tribe to the young man. Only a young man like Temur dared to fight against the nearly thousand gold barbarian army, and only the heroes of the Black Bear Tribe were able to achieve such a huge victory. Naturally, since the Black Bear Tribe has absolutely attached the entire tribe to the Black Bear Castle, it is most suitable for Temur, the clansman who has the best relationship with Du Xuan, the leader of the Black Bear Castle, to serve as the patriarch.
"Brother Du Xuan, from now on, our Black Bear Tribe and Black Bear Fort will share the same fate!" When Temur saw Du Xuan who greeted him, he thumped Du Xuan's chest heavily. Fortunately, Du Xuan is not the weak scholar he was now, otherwise he would be killed by Temur like this.
"Okay! Accommodation, we're ready. It's just that time is pressing, and the accommodation is relatively simple, so it can only be improved slowly in the future. Du Xuan said.
As long as we have a shelter from the wind and rain and enough food, we are satisfied. No matter how big the grassland is, no matter how wide the forest is, there is no place for my black bear tribe to stand on, and if I can have a piece of sky here, the black bear tribe is already content. The tone of the old team leader Erdemutu was full of melancholy. The Black Bear Tribe also had its glory in the past, but now it has fallen into such a field.
The Black Bear tribesmen, who were still in sorrow because of the migration, began to look forward to their future life after eating a meal specially prepared for them by Black Bear Fort. Because the food in this meal is so delicious for them.
The Black Bear Tribe has no shortage of meat, they have abundant meat at every meal every day, but their cooking level is too far behind the Daqi people, and compared to the cooking of Daqi, they are simply savages in the mountains. Even if the food culture of Black Bear Fort is relatively backward, it is still a lot higher than that of the savages. Some of the seasonings that are very precious to the Black Bear Tribe can only be regarded as relatively common items in the Black Bear Castle. It is difficult for the black bear tribe to supply enough Chiyang rice, and it is enough for every meal.
Daqi people not only grow a variety of crops, but also make a wide variety of crops into a wide variety of food, fully exerting the potential of various ingredients. Even if it is the most ordinary Chiyang rice, the people of Chiyangwei can make at least dozens of different foods.
After the meal, Temur found Du Xuan: "Can you give us land and teach us to plant Chiyang rice?"
Du Xuan was a little surprised by Temur's request: "Didn't I promise you that Black Bear Fort will provide you with enough food in the future? ”
"That's not what it means. We at Fort Black Bear only have young men out hunting. But we see that here in Chiyangwei, men, women and children are planting Chiyang rice in the rice fields. Our black bear tribe has hands and feet and can be self-reliant. Temur could see that although Du Xuan and the others were very welcoming to their arrival. But in Black Bear Castle, not everyone's attitude is like Du Xuan's. Although Du Xuan promised to supply enough food for the Black Bear Tribe, and Temur also believed that Du Xuan would definitely do it, Temur had his own ideas. If the Black Bear Tribe wants to truly integrate into the Black Bear Fort and be accepted by the people of the Black Bear Fort, it cannot be completely fed by the people of the Black Bear Fort like a parasite, otherwise, the Black Bear Tribe will always be looked down upon by the people of the Black Bear Fort.
Du Xuan was a smart man, and he quickly understood Temur's concerns, and he very much agreed with Temur's approach. Doing so is indeed easier for the Daqi people to accept them. Therefore, Du Xuan agreed without thinking: "I will let Du Feng go to you when I go back, you have taken a fancy to that land, and let Du Feng directly assign it to your tribe." In addition, Du Feng will arrange for the most experienced farmers in Black Bear Fort to teach your people how to grow Chiyang rice. ”
Temur said happily, "Great. Zhuo Na said that she must learn to grow Chiyang rice and learn to use Chiyang rice to make delicious food. ”
Temur didn't say that Dzona was going to cook him delicious food. Because the last time Temur took his people to save the entire Wusi Cottage, including Zhuona's relatives, Zhuona has completely fallen in love with him. The two have already established a relationship. The young men and women of the Black Bear Tribe are far more bold in expressing their feelings than the young men and women of Daqi.
"That's fine. We have a lot of hard-working peasant women and ingenious housewives in Black Bear Castle. They'll teach Dzona. I just want to know, how is your relationship with Zhuo Na?" asked Du Xuan.
"This year's Bear God Festival was completely ruined by the Golden Squid Army, and I have to wait for the next year. We people of the Black Bear tribe believe that only the love that is determined on the Bear God Festival can be blessed by the Bear God. So, we're going to finalize the relationship at next year's Bear Festival. Temur said.
"Are you planning to hold a wedding after next year's Bear God Festival?" Du Xuan asked.
"What is a wedding? As long as the relationship is established at the Bear God Festival, I will be able to live with Zhuona. Temur was a little confused.
Sure enough, the marriage of the barbarians is even rougher than imagined, and if it is placed in Daqi, this medicine can be regarded as fornication. Du Xuan just glanced at Temur a few times, and then threw Temur there in a daze.
After Du Xuan left, Temur remembered the most important thing, and then pulled his legs and chased after him from behind. Du Xuan is a lazy man, in the Black Bear Castle, he has never been seen walking, either riding a horse or a tiger.
Temur panted and caught up with Du Xuan: "Brother Du Xuan......"
"Brother Temur, do you have anything else, why didn't you say it earlier?" Du Xuan looked at Temur who was chasing after him in surprise.
Temur couldn't cry or laugh, you slapped the horse and left if you didn't agree, did I have time to say?
"What's the matter? Just say, don't worry, I said that when you get to Black Bear Fort, everyone in the Black Bear Tribe is a part of Black Bear Castle. Du Xuan said.
"Didn't you say you'd equip our Black Bear tribe with dragonscale horses?" Temur said.
Du Xuan nodded: "Yes." But now there are less than a hundred dragon-scale horses in Black Bear Castle, and all of them are used to train recruits. There will definitely be dragon scale horses in the future, and all the cavalry of Black Bear Fort will be equipped, but they will have to wait. ”
