Not long after receiving the carrier pigeons, Tu led a large army back with a large amount of supplies.
There are so many supplies that the ostriches can no longer ride. There are loads of goods hanging on them, and a simple sled made of wood is pulled behind them.
Even the goose soldiers led by the Goose King carried the sleds full of goods in twos and threes, and most of them also carried heavy goods on their shoulders.
Only a few people in charge of security did not transport so many salutes, and other people and animals were almost overwhelmed by the cargo.
Everyone had already received news before that a lot of goods had been seized, but they were still shocked when they saw it.
"How come there are so many?"
Yang Yi was stunned, and couldn't imagine how many tribes the Blackstone tribe had robbed in order to have such a harvest.
"Part of it is the food we exchanged for the precious utensils of the Blackstone tribe. They have a lot of treasures."
Tu explained that he was shocked when he saw the treasure as high as a mountain.
So many things were definitely not accumulated in a day or two. They should have started when they were still in the Blackstone tribe, but they didn't hear any movement.
Tu used to be a very powerful warrior in the Blackstone tribe, and Black Hunter was a candidate for the next chief, so he didn't even know anything about it.
The chief and the others probably regarded them as thorns in their eyes long ago, and never thought of passing on their position to Black Hunter from the beginning.
"You are very good." Yang Yi praised, "You can find so many tribes willing to exchange."
"Thanks to the ice map, otherwise it wouldn't be so smooth. We also went to the Western Continent Caravan and exchanged a lot of food from there. In fact, it was more, but I gave some of it to those who were with us Those who attacked the Blackstone tribe."
Yang Yi nodded appreciatively: "It should be."
"If it weren't for them this time, we would never have gone so smoothly, and the loss would not have been so small." Tu lamented.
Those people didn't have decent weapons, but they were very desperate, not only because of hatred, but because they wanted to seize this opportunity to fight for the chance to survive.
The Blackstone tribe is very greedy and cruel. They dominate one side and enjoy a good life, while the other tribes suffer.
The place they occupy is very rich, and other tribes used to live well, but because of the existence of the Blackstone tribe, they have no way out.
Before, they had no chance of winning and still chose to resist. Now that they saw the Starfire tribe coming, saw their powerful equipment, and learned their strength from the rumors, they knew very well that this was the only chance to eliminate the Blackstone tribe.
Instead of standing back and waiting to reap the fruits of victory, they joined in and stood at the forefront to attack.
These numbers add up to a large number. Although the weapons are relatively backward, and the physical strength is not very good because of hunger, they still become a very powerful force, allowing this battle to win an overwhelming victory.
In the Xinghuo tribe led by Tu, three people died in the end, eight ostriches were lost, and six geese were lost.
This loss figure is much smaller than expected, after all, the Blackstone tribe is still very powerful.
Their black stone weapons are almost comparable to iron weapons, and all of them are produced by fighting, and their lethality is very strong.
Although the Starfire team is stronger, it is still very difficult to be unscathed.
It is also reasonable to distribute part of the spoils to those tribes who participated in the war.
Tu not only kept food, but also kept some black stone weapons, which made them more capable of self-protection.
Yang Yi appreciated this behavior very much: "If they can develop well, they will also be our potential customers in the future."
"They also said that they will definitely visit our Starfire Tribe when the next fair is held." Tu laughed, "I especially want to see you, the envoy of God."
Hei Lie moved his body silently, blocking Tu's line of sight: "Have all the people of the Black Stone Tribe been wiped out?"
Tu's eyes were deep: "The people who can stay in the Blackstone tribe are no different from the Tusk tribe. Even if I want to stay, there is no way."
Those who had been brutally treated by the Blackstone tribe all raised their weapons and killed them, and each one was poked on a wooden stick.
"I brought back the heads of Chief Blackstone and the priest." Tu held up a fur bag and wanted to hand it over.
Black Hunter: "Show it to me later."
Tu glanced at Yang Yi, immediately understood, and quickly put it away.
It is known to the entire tribe that God envoys do not want to see cruel scenes.
The return of Tu, to a certain extent, solved the crisis that the tribe was about to face.
Although the number of the Blackstone tribe is only a few thousand people—not counting slaves, the amount of food they hoard is amazing.
In addition, they still have the habit of eating people, which makes the accumulation of food even more.
What's more, many of them are rotten inside, and they have been placed for a long time at first glance.
When Tu saw these foods, he became even more resentful.
When they were still in the Blackstone tribe, some people starved to death due to lack of food.
Chief Blackstone also took advantage of this to eliminate many old, weak, sick and disabled. They always thought that the tribe's food was very tight.
In the end, it was not because there was not enough food, but because they would rather hide it and rot than distribute it to their own clansmen!
Some of these rotten food pictures were also taken back, but not for taking them back to eat, but to show everyone what the Blackstone tribe did.
Let the people in the tribe know how cruel things are happening outside of their Starfire tribe.
If the Starfire Tribe ceased to exist, they would likely encounter such a tribe too, squeezed by cruel exploitation.
After the Blackstone Tribe was wiped out, the phenomenon of large-scale defectors also disappeared, only a few sporadic defectors were attracted by the name of the Starfire Tribe and rushed here from thousands of miles away.
These numbers are very large, and the population of the Xinghuo Tribe has entered a relatively stable period.
At present, the Xinghuo tribe has reached more than 58,000 people, and the number of non-staff is more than the number of tribes, and it has become a very large tribe.
In the Eastern Continent, it is the tribe with the largest number of known tribes.
No tribe can accommodate so many people in one place like them.
At present, most tribes in the Eastern Continent have not developed the habit of planting and breeding, and even if they do, the scale is not large, and the harvest is very small.
The harvest is often only two or three times that of the seeds, not enough to sustain them close to planting.
"The number of people in the tribe is growing faster than we thought. The previously estimated planting area is far from enough, and planting must be expanded. Qing, can you supply the seeds from your side?"
"An envoy, I have no problem here!" Qing nodded: "It's just that there are not many of the best species left, and I'm afraid it will be impossible to achieve the big harvest like before."
Seeds will degenerate. Although Qing has been leading people with plant talents to study how to optimize the seeds, they still cannot maintain them at a relatively high level.
"It's amazing to be able to hold on to half the yield of the seeds I bring in."
Yang Yi has calculated that if it is rice, one mu of land can supply the food consumption of ten soldiers and ten ordinary people for a year. If it is eaten together with more high-yield staple foods such as sweet potatoes and corn, the number of people will be even greater.
As long as this data is stabilized, the yield can still be maintained at a fairly high level, which is much luckier than before the earth did not have hybrid rice and chemical fertilizers.
"Envoy of God, I promise I can do this!" Qing said very confidently.
"Your energy is also limited. At present, the main focus of work is on the staple food, first to ensure that everyone is not hungry. Those crops with low yields have reduced the planting area, and the main focus is on higher yields, which are easy to preserve and On the crops that feed the hunger."
In the past, everyone still belonged to the stage of planting, and wanted to know what kind of crops are suitable for this place, and how much yield, so many times they planted indiscriminately.
Yang Yi planted as many seeds as he bought, and the second and third batches were all directly based on the original data, or expanded by the same multiple at the same time.
Now that he has a general understanding, Yang Yi does not intend to continue like this.
Their food crisis is still not over, and they have no reserves, which means they have no ability to take risks.
This is very dangerous for a tribe with such a large population.
Therefore, the main direction of Yang Yi's plan this year is to fill his stomach and stockpile food, and put the taste and variety in the back of his mind, as long as it can provide enough nutrition.
Qing was puzzled: "But many crops with low yields can be exchanged for more food at the trade fair."
"The food to fill the stomach must not rely on other people, including our most profitable pottery and porcelain, etc., must first meet the food needs of the tribe, and then spare the excess labor to manufacture them. Otherwise, you will be led by the nose Let's go, these items can't be exchanged for too many things."
This time the Xinghuo tribe encountered a crisis, and some tribes and caravans wanted to take advantage of the fire to loot, but they didn't succeed.
Qing has been focusing on the farmland, so she doesn't know much about these news.
However, Qing quickly reacted, and was full of admiration: "Envoy, you can see so far!"
Yang Yi smiled: "It's just that I often see similar examples."
"Are these things that happened in God's Domain? Do gods trade like us humans?"
"It's not God's Domain, but another world."
Yang Yi found that he had slipped his mouth, and he couldn't take it back. He simply didn't deliberately conceal it, and he didn't say it in such detail.
Qing didn't ask any more, she was just talking casually just now, knowing what Yang Yi's taboo was.
The food problem was largely resolved, and the military training activities that had been stranded before were carried out in the resettlement sites.
During this period of time, a group of people who felt the atmosphere of the Xinghuo tribe did not have any rejection of these activities that they did not quite understand the meaning of.
Especially when I heard that every member of the Xinghuo Tribe will have such a training when they officially join the Xinghuo Tribe, so they are more actively involved.
Everyone is working very hard, hoping that their performance will be favored and they can enter the reserve member stage earlier.
These days, people have been becoming reserve members one after another. Those who entered the Xinghuo Tribe are not without praise, and the whole person has become different.
Just the candies called rock sugar and the peppers that can explode in the mouth when they come back occasionally are enough to make them yearn for.
The Xinghuo Tribe used the rewards and punishments to the extreme, and those who conformed to the Xinghuo rules would get very good rewards.
On the contrary, the Xinghuo tribe will drive away or even kill those who violate the Xinghuo rules, steal and cheat.
The Xinghuo Tribe never kills a person lightly. Every time they hold a public trial, they will present all the evidence to let everyone understand why this person was given death.
Since the Blackstone tribe was wiped out, these people have become more calm and obedient.
The name of the Blackstone tribe is very famous, almost no one does not know it.
Now, they have been completely wiped out, which is very shocking, and they have further understood the strength of the Xinghuo tribe, and dare not have other small thoughts.
People who provoke the Xinghuo tribe will go to annihilate them no matter how far away they are, who would dare to make a mistake.
Even the Western Continent caravan's attitude has changed. They actively traded with the Starfire Tribe at a reasonable price, and brought what the Starfire Tribe currently needs with a wink.
After the snow melted and the green shoots were on the branches again, the Xinghuo Tribe had already brought back 300 cattle, 500 sheep, 500 pigs and other livestock from the Western Continent.
There were even fifty horses, and the caravan that brought the horses was the caravan that wanted to lower the price and was inextricably linked to this crisis.
Not only did they bring scarce horses, but they also paid very generous prices. Most of them were young mares, and they wanted to show their sincerity.
"There are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests."
Black Hunter put what they did to the back of his mind for the time being very grandly, but still remembered that if the other party dared to pretend, then it would not be so easy to talk.
In the contact with the other party, they also unceremoniously warned them, and lowered their transaction level to the lowest level.
"Envoy of God, these oxen are really easy to use. It is much easier and more efficient to use them to plow the land."
The person in charge of the farmland reported to Yang Yi very happily.
Now it is the season of large-scale cultivation, and half of the labor force is assigned to cultivate farmland.
The cattle were also pulled into the farmland to help, so that everyone could clearly see that cattle are not only delicious meat, but also the best plowing tools.
"A few cows are pregnant, you must not tire them out."
"Envoy of God, don't worry, I take care of them more carefully than my children!"
The Spark people who have raised poultry are very aware of the importance of these livestock.
Raising these little things is much easier than hunting!
The most important thing is that the infirm can complete it, and can give full play to the role of each person.
The large-scale cultivation is in full swing, and the planting area has increased significantly, most of which are outside the moat.
The previously planned area inside the moat has been unable to provide enough fields.
After the weather got warmer, housing construction started again, and the population surged, and the existing housing could not meet the demand at all.
Fortunately, the place surrounded by the moat was big enough, and it is no problem for everyone to move in now.
At the beginning, the capacity was only set at 50,000 people, but later it was found that attracting the population was not that difficult, so it was changed to the current capacity of 100,000 people.
However, the moat should not be set too long, otherwise it will consume too much manpower and material resources, so the farmland should be placed outside the city.
"The farms also have to be moved out. There is not enough space for them to use. There are too many people, and it is easy for them to be infected with diseases."
Yang Yi looked at the map, trying to figure out which location would be the most suitable.
Farms are also high-risk. A large number of poultry live together. Once infected with a disease, a large number of them will die.
Not to mention here, it is the technologically advanced earth, and many times there is no particularly good way.
"All the eggs that have been fertilized before are kept. If they all hatch, a large area must be designated for sorting."
Black Hunter agreed with Yang Yi's point of view and pointed to a place.
"I think it's good here. It's in the middle of the tribal living area and the manufacturing area, not far from the water canal. There is also a crack at the back to prevent animals from sneaking up on this side."
Yang Yi took a look and asked curiously, "Is there a crack? How big is it?"
"It's about 20 to 30 meters wide, and it's very deep inside. I threw stones down before, but I didn't hear the sound of landing."
"There is still such a place." Yang Yi marveled, "Speaking of which, I've been walking around all the time, or I've been walking along the road, and I haven't had a good time shopping."
"If you want to go, we can leave now."
Yang Yi smiled and shook his head: "Forget it, I still have a lot of work to do."
"You don't have to work so hard..."
Yang Yi directly interrupted him: "Although I am often lazy, when I want to do something, I will be very serious.
It's not time to rest yet, but I believe we will be free soon. At that time, I will not only go to the depths of the wasteland, but also go to the Western Continent. "
"Okay, no matter where you go, I will accompany you."
"Both of us are gone, and the tribe has to mess up."
Black Hunter didn't take it seriously: "One day there will be new people to replace us. We can't control this tribe forever. We always have to train successors."
"At that time, you will be seized power."
"If that person is capable, why not? I would rather let go of power early than become a person like Chief Blackstone because of my greed for power."
Chief Blackstone was not like this at the beginning, he was also a very wise leader.
He is also indispensable for the Blackstone tribe to be strong.
It's just that he was too greedy for power, so he went astray step by step.
"The ideological consciousness is very high." Yang Yi praised.
The stronger the strength, the more afraid of being defeated and replaced sometimes.
Here, the submission of the position of chief not only handed over the power, but also told everyone that I am old and can no longer be qualified for this position, and I must be replaced by someone younger and stronger.
As a former king, this is not an easy thing to accept.
Like many beauties, it is difficult to face the fact that they are getting old.
It is not easy for Black Hunter to be so free and easy.
"It's still far behind you." Hei Lie said this very seriously, without any hint of irony.
Yang Yi was puzzled: "The envoy of the gods has never been dismissed. I am the first and the last."
Unless there is another traverser like him who has a strong golden finger and a good mind.
It is often more difficult to defend a city, and a leader is likely to lead to the destruction of a city.
"It's an amazing thing that you come here from your world and you're used to it."
Yang Yi waved his hand: "I'm different from you, I was forced. To be honest, if I had a choice, I would never come."
As a rich and free person, if he really had an adventurous spirit, he would have gone to explore the Amazon long ago, and he still has to wait to cross.
"Glad you don't have that option."
Hei Hunter was triumphant, smiling very much.
Yang Yi gave him an angry look: "I'm also a little bit lucky that I have such a chance to come here."
Hei Lie smiled even brighter, picked up Yang Yi and rushed into the next room.
When the two reappeared, it was already several hours later.
The victory over the Blackstone tribe did not make Yang Yi and Black Hunter take it lightly. They sent more people to continue digging the moat to improve the tribe's defense capabilities.
When the peppers in the field began to bear fruit, the moat was dug through.
The whole tribe held a very grand celebration, during which the newly hatched crocodiles were thrown into the river one by one.
Although these crocodiles are still small, they have already demonstrated very strong strength.
Dozens of crocodiles have been hatched in the farm before, and these crocodiles grow very huge. Adult crocodiles can grow to more than ten meters long, just like the prehistoric giant crocodiles in movies.
When Yang Yi saw them, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
Its bite force is very strong, and its skin is also very hard. It is a full-fledged beast.
Their meat is very delicious, grilled like chicken, not as vicious and terrifying as it looks.
Yang Yi was still hesitant to sample these big guys, they eat too much! Although it is an omnivore, it also eats wild fruits and roots, etc., but it still has to eat meat.
Everyone thinks it looks very interesting, the moat is empty and there is nothing, the farm has moved away, and there are no geese, ducks, etc. to play here, it is more interesting to raise some animals.
What's more, the meat it eats is still less than the meat it grows on itself, and it can also feed them those offal, mice, etc.
They have very strong hides that can be crafted into tools of defense.
When alive, you can also guard the tribe to prevent some beasts or bandits from sneaking in and hurting the people in the tribe.
Now there are no large herds of ferocious beasts near the tribe, but sneak attacks still occur from time to time.
The moat was not built well before, and some children ran far away and were almost taken away.
Although later discovered by the guards with sharp eyes and quick hands, the child was also bitten and seriously injured. Now that he has been rescued, his body has suffered irreversible damage and has become very weak.
The people here have all kinds of talents, and among the beasts, some can swim and climb.
A ferocious beast climbed the house before and almost took away the sleeping person inside. Although this is a very small probability, it happened after all.
Even the Xinghuo tribe with strong military force and strong and tall houses does not mean that the central living area is absolutely safe.
This world is full of all kinds of dangers, but relatively speaking, it is much safer.
Hearing this, Yang Yi didn't object anymore, and made sure that these crocodiles could not climb up from the moat, so he took out all the crocodile eggs in the space and let them all hatch.
If these guys are hard to keep, eat them.
These crocodiles are powerful, but they still can't defeat the Xinghuo tribe, and they can't even defeat Goose King and Xiaobai.
No matter how fierce it is, it can also be made into a Chinese meal.
