Chapter 87 It's Chinese New Year Again

After the dam is completed, it will form a line with Xiaoyue Mountain and Dayue Mountain, forming a natural defense system.

The dam is built with stones and red bricks as a whole, and the outside is stacked with neat stone strips, and lime avelum mud is used to bind them together.

On the side of the dam facing the river, a pointed stone stack like the prow of a ship was built every five meters. This is the wisdom of the ancestors. He Qinghuan just borrowed the impact of the split water on the dam.

The iron plate used for the gate on the dam has a screw rod on the top. If water is released, two people twist the iron rod, rotate the iron plate, and the water will flow through.

The flood season is fully open to moisten the entire plain. If there is a big flood that will submerge the plain of the dragon-training tribe, then close the switch to let the flood flow from the Nu River to the sea.

There are a total of five iron gates like this in the dam, which are usually closed to concentrate all the water flow to the northernmost one.

Because a large water reel is built under this to drive the gears, and a water reel is used to grind grain.

In the pottery workshop, there is a water pestle, which is used to make mud bowls and vats.

Various uses.

There is a main road on the dam, and there is no need to support a sheepskin raft or swim back and forth.

In the future, Dayue Mountain will be full of villages, and a wharf can be built. It is much more convenient to use boats to shuttle here and there than on land.

When the Spring Festival comes, the dam has already taken shape. All the warriors have a holiday, rest, and get together with their wives, children, and family members.

Come back to work on the eighth day of the first lunar month.

There was no large-scale war of animals attacking humans this winter. First, traps were set on the periphery of human activities.

Pit type, wire trap type, and animal trap type, the warriors patrolling every morning can find a lot of prey in the traps on the edge of the reclaimed land.

Secondly, last year in the war with human beings, many ferocious beasts died, and the envoy's fire burned many ferocious beasts, the number of ferocious beasts dropped sharply, and occasionally a few were not worth it at all.

There are also Huahua and Xiaokong. The excrement of the two of them was carried by the tiger and scattered on the edge of the reclaimed land. Over the past year, the smell is strong enough to warn the wild animals outside and tell them that this place is The territory of saber-toothed tigers and dragons, don't come here easily!

It was safe to spend the winter of the previous year.

Before the snow fell, I led all the warriors to burn the wasteland again, which was the area of ​​500 hectares designated last year. This year’s reclamation was far from enough, so I continued to burn. Next year, I will continue to reclaim the 500 hectares. The burned ashes are exactly Next year's fat.

The warriors were all looking forward to burning the wasteland. After burning the wasteland, they picked up a lot of prey, small ones like bamboo rats, hares, turtles, porcupines, big roe deer, gazelle, and sika deer. Everyone was smiling.

The larger horses, donkeys, mammoths, bears, and wolves fled to the greater plain.

The wilderness is burned once every winter, so that the animals gradually get familiar with it and remember it, and they will never come here again.

This is good for everyone.

Some warriors even picked up a litter of wolf cubs, thinking that the envoys and patriarchs can raise saber-toothed tigers and dragons, the women and children in the family can raise sheep, cows, horses, and they can raise a wolf, right?

So I hugged it back and raised it by myself.

After He Qinghuan knew about it, he reminded Bai Fucheng that during this period, we can domesticate animals to participate in wars.

Especially mammoths, their fighting power is amazing.

Domesticating animals takes time, so prepare ahead of time.

Baifu City immediately organized a hunting team to capture live wolf cubs and mammoth cubs, and formed a war elephant team in another canyon to the northeast of Xixia.

This place was named the Valley of War Elephants.

Unified feeding, unified training, equipped with ten-year-old animal trainers, fostering affection from childhood, responsible for feeding, cleaning, and training.

The original centurion bull was in charge of the children and animals.

Teenagers learn things the fastest, and they don't take up the work of adult warriors. These children happen to be the main force in battle when they grow up.

Baifucheng has been training the warriors in fighting, boxing, and military boxing throughout the winter. They exercise for two hours every morning, eat breakfast, and go to work to repair the dam. They have free time after get off work in the evening.

In short, the whole winter is also busy without touching the ground.

There are more types and quantities of food than last year, the women's craftsmanship has also improved, and there are more varieties of the same food.

The Poon Choi eaten in the Spring Festival Gala has many kinds of dishes fried with rapeseed. People's mouths are full of oil, and they have never eaten such delicious food.

The vermicelli fans are full of the fatness of the meat. The mutton, pork, roe deer meat, and venison in the pot, after a long time of stewing, have long been crispy and sweet in the mouth.

The soft and glutinous taro is steamed this year, and it is dipped in white sugar. Wow, you can still eat it like this. It feels so blissful to eat it.

Because the cellar is used to store food, the rare fresh fruits, apples, pears, peaches, and dates are all put on the Spring Festival Gala and served together, but the rare things, the warriors are reluctant to eat them, so they take them home and give them to their women and children.

In previous years, there was not enough to eat in the current season, so how can there be extra storage?

The hosts of this year's Spring Festival Gala are Bai Hu and Bai Jian. The funny and playful Bai Hu made the atmosphere very happy.

The gold medal was awarded to Xhaka and Sister Plum, the couple.

Everyone has no objection. These two couples have made great contributions this year, and finding wives for these bachelors is a great achievement.

On the fourth day of the new year, Bai Fucheng held a meeting of leaders.

The meeting place is on the kang of the Consulate General in the Nujiang Fortress.

Arrange work for next year.

The first is the military meeting, the primary goal of which is to prepare for the revenge of the Arugaya tribe.

On a small scale, we, Zhaka, lead the Warriors and we can defend, but if the opponent fights this battle with all their strength, we cannot confront them head-on.

We have not yet developed to be so powerful that we can annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop.

If there is a tug-of-war, the people of the two largest tribes will be consumed, which is what the envoy does not want to see. All the people on this continent are the people of the gods, so try to avoid unnecessary casualties.

Therefore, at this stage, we treat the Aruguya tribe with a soft policy.

Take the initiative to seek peace, show weakness, and contribute special products. Of course, such special products include tea, tobacco leaves, opium,

If the top echelon of the slave society could be dismantled by means of corrupting the Qing government, then this battle would be unnecessary.

To subdue the largest tribe and liberate all slaves without bloodshed is the most ideal state.

However, the reason we do this is because we don't have enough strength to fight against now, and Huairou is only a buffer for the past few years. Our most important resource is people, people!

Try to maintain the increase of combatable personnel instead of consumption.

Therefore, it is necessary to exchange food and materials for our peaceful and stable development in recent years.

When we have enough fighters, enough weapons and ammunition, and the training of war elephants is mature, then we will see the situation before deciding to fight.

The general program has been formulated. For the rest, Zhaka will continue to be in charge of the expeditionary force, Dashan will still be his chief supervisor, Daniel will continue to train the juvenile class, wolf warriors, elephants and cavalry battalions, Kunkun will continue to build the dam, and Daxiong will do a good job. For the entire tribe's business communication work, Bear Claw and Buick continue to fight and cooperate with the iron is the top priority. Buick's Montenegro satellite camp will send people to build a fort this year.

The military conference was held for one day, and the next day the heads of various departments went down to hold a meeting with the leaders of their own small departments to issue the highest instructions.

The next day He Qinghuan held a civil meeting, most of them were women, and the whole room was sitting on the kang, chattering.

Knocking walnuts, biting chestnuts, and gagging soybeans, we finished discussing what to do this year.

Demographic statistics show that the total population of the tribe has reached 5300 people.

And it is young women and men who make up the majority, thanks to Xhaka and Sister Meihua who brought back a large number of young warriors and women last year.

In this way, the proportion of the elderly and children has dropped.

The birth rate of babies has increased substantially, and it is estimated that there will continue to be baby booms in the next year and the year after.

Now the proportion of teenagers aged ten to 16 is the lowest. Although there are teenagers exchanged, the number is not large.

These teenagers are all distributed in medical care, medicine, cavalry, food, Hua Mulan department, special forces department, and mechanical carpentry department, which are all key departments.

When the children grow up, they can be assigned to various departments and become leaders of the tribe.

Education is the top priority of people's livelihood. Children from five to ten years old start to learn to write on the sand table. This year's education is in charge of the education of witch doctor Amu's little secretary Bai Fushu. Teaching at various residences and, at the same time, further education.

In this way, He Qinghuan doesn't have to teach everyone, just teach these little teachers.

This year, Sisi continues to be responsible for raising tussah silkworms, reeling silk, weaving, expanding cotton planting area, spinning thread, and weaving cloth. The weaving was very good last winter, and the children have small clothes to wear.

The baby has small clothes to wear, instead of being naked wrapped in animal skins, it is much more comfortable.
