Chapter 234 Subtle power
In the third month of summer, the weather is very hot, making people doubt life. At this time, people always look forward to it raining.
"Wow..."
The rain was particularly heavy today, as if someone was pouring it down in the sky with a big scoop.
In the wooden house next to the farmland of the Mang tribe, there were still green spiders with captive identity reaching under the eaves and letting the rain wash their jade hands.
There are many people in the wooden house, all of whom were the three major tribe warriors and now the prisoners of the Mang tribe.
Among them, the six eyes of the Spider Tribe, the leaves cut from the Ant Tribe, and the Wufeng of the Bee Tribe, and the three totem warriors, like others, squatted in the wooden house, staring blankly at the heavy rain outside and dazed.
It has been half a year since they were captured in the Mang tribe. During this half year, they worked, ate, slept, and worked every day, and looked less like soldiers, more like old farmers.
At the beginning, they were very uncomfortable and wanted to escape countless times, but they failed and slowly gave up the idea of escaping.
Over time, they became more familiar with the Mang tribe, and their inner thoughts also changed.
I don’t know when they started, but they no longer felt that they were working in the fields, and they no longer thought about running back to the original tribe, and even their hatred for the Mang tribe became much weaker.
What's more, some of them have already developed a good impression of the Mang tribe, thinking that the Mang tribe is much better than the tribes before them.
Such people will have more and more mentality over time.
Time passed by bit by bit, and the summer rain came and went quickly. Seeing the dark clouds covered, the dark clouds quickly dissipated again. The heavy rain stopped and the sun shone again on the earth.
The green spider shook the water droplets on his hand, turned around to face the prisoners, clapped his hands, and said, "The rain has stopped, take your own tools, it's time to do your job!"
The prisoners stood up one after another and walked out. Today, their task was to build the city wall.
The pressure brought by foreign enemies is relatively high, and now the scale of the Mang tribe has also increased. The stone walls built earlier can no longer meet the needs of defending against foreign enemies.
Therefore, Chenbei ordered the construction of a real, thick city wall to encircle the entire Mang tribe and form a city with certain defense.
The previous stone wall will not be overthrown and will serve as the second defense of the Mang tribe.
This project is very large and requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and cannot be completed in the short term.
Chenbei was not in a hurry, so he asked these prisoners and tourists who had newly joined the Mang tribe to slowly cultivate. After the autumn harvest, he organized a large number of manpower to speed up the progress.
After the city wall is built, Chenbei will dig a moat to bring in the water from the lobster river.
With a city wall or a moat, it will not be that easy for any tribe to attack Mang tribe.
These prisoners quickly started working. They were all totem warriors, much stronger than tourists without totem power and were very strong.
A small section of the city wall has begun to take shape. The main material of the city wall is stone, and the one that acts as the adhesive is lime!
That's right, the Mang tribe has lime now.
Because of the experience of firing pottery, firing lime is effortless. You only need to dig a few lime kilns, then stack limestone and firewood layer by layer, and calcinate for seven days.
With lime as adhesive, the strength and durability of the city wall have been greatly improved. It can be foreseen that the city walls of the Mang tribe will be very majestic in the future.
In the distance, Chen Bei and Hongye watched these prisoners build the city wall.
Hongye said: "These prisoners are much more obedient than before, so they shouldn't run away again, right?"
Chenbeidao: "Time can change everything. They have gradually realized the benefits of our Mang tribe. As long as the time is long enough, the Mang tribe will become stronger and stronger, sooner or later they will really want to stay."
Hongye nodded in agreement. The Mang tribe is indeed very magical. He used to think that he would be loyal to the Shu tribe all his life, but after staying in the Mang tribe for a long time, his memory of the Shu tribe in his mind gradually became blurred.
...
Mang tribal breeding area.
"Cry!"
A red crane spread its wings, whistled, spread its wings and flew, flew about a hundred meters, and landed on the ground again.
After the Red Crane landed, Honghua immediately ran over, stroked Hong Crane's head, fed it a small fish, and smiled and said, "The little fish is great! In a while, you will be able to fly into the sky!"
This red crane is one of the young red cranes brought back from the lakeside by Chenbei. In the future, it will be the flying battle pet of red flowers. She named this red crane Xiaoyu because it especially loves to eat fish.
Chen Bei and the hunting team brought back a total of thirty young red crane birds. They had a large appetite and had an amazing growth rate.
In just half a year, it has grown almost the same height as a human and can fly for short distances.
The Red Crane Team has fifty totem warriors. They take turns to cultivate feelings with these Red Crane young birds, eat and live with each other every day, so that these Red Cranes will regard them as their masters in the future.
It is also worth mentioning that those adult big red birds have become less resistant to people after half a year of feeding.
Moreover, because they are tied up every day, they eat and sleep, and they are now very fat and cannot fly.
Later, people in the breeding area tried to release them, but there was still a rope on their feet.
Later, after finding out that these adult red cranes could not fly out, they completely untied their ropes and allowed them to feed freely by the stream and river bank.
In fact, after the young birds grow up, these adult red cranes are not so valuable. Even if a few fly away, they are completely acceptable.
Moreover, they have a huge appetite and can feed on their own is better than feeding a lot of food every day.
"Little fish, squat down."
Honghua patted the red crane and gave it an order.
Honghe really squatted down obediently, without any disgust in his eyes, because it has been with Honghua every day since he was very young, and has cultivated deep feelings.
Honghua turned over and rode on Honghe's back, then pointed to the front and said, "Run!"
Red Crane immediately stepped out and ran. It was big and strong, so it was stress-free to run with a person.
As the wings were running, the Red Crane spread its wings and tried to fly, but it could only fly for a short distance, and its wings were not powerful enough.
Other red cranes are also in training and the open spaces in the breeding area are running and flying.
It can be foreseen that one day, they will take people and truly fly high, becoming the most reliable air force of the Mang tribe!
...
While the Mang tribe was busy trading with other tribes, learning to drive ships, build city walls, and train red cranes, the Diao tribe also took action.
They could not tolerate the reckless tribes trading with more and more tribes, which harmed their interests.
