Super Chief

As Shixiong said, there is almost no shortage of materials needed to improve this broaching machine, and a few people are very high-spirited, so they plunged in, almost every day thinking about how to improve. Broaching.

　　Especially Lieutenant Ferguson, he put more effort into this broaching machine than the new rifle.

　　 Hard bones, rabbit mouths, they didn't understand the meaning of this broaching machine, but Ferguson knew it.

　　 The standard rifles used by soldiers in the British Empire are a little bit behind the times. Although the British Empire’s navy is very powerful, the army’s firearms are really behind. Not to mention that compared with the rifles of the rival French, even the rifles used by the Spanish and Germans are a bit behind the standard rifles.

　　As a gun genius, Ferguson does not know the importance of rifling. It is a pity that rifling is really a very difficult task. Although the rifled gun has been around for a long time, it can still only be used as an auxiliary unit.

　　 But Ferguson knows very well that the musket will inevitably replace the musket!

　　 Whether it is effective range or accuracy, muskets are far incomparable with rifled guns. As long as a simpler and easier way to draw rifling can be found, it is an inevitable trend for rifled guns to replace muskets, just like flintlocks replace matchlocks.

　　 Lieutenant Ferguson knows very well that even in Europe, there is no way to easily make a rifled gun. The rifled gun can only be made by hand and cannot be popularized on a large scale.

　　 But once the specially developed rifling machine can be successfully developed, then rifling will no longer become a barrier to restrict the expansion of rifled guns. If this improved broaching machine can achieve the expected results, then the rifling of four to five barrels a day drawn by a worker shouldn't be a big problem.

　　 Compared with the research and development of new rifles, the research of this kind of broaching machine is more urgent.

　　Because the new rifle is inseparable from this kind of broaching machine!

　　 Therefore, Ferguson plunged into the improvement of this broaching machine without hesitation.

　　......

　　 Now the tribal people in the tribe have a clear division of labor, and most of the women are reclaiming wasteland and farming. With more than forty tamed bisons, even women can easily drive wasteland plows or columbine carts.

　　 The results of a large number of domestication of bison quickly became apparent.

　　 More than forty bison and fifty to sixty women can open up hundreds of acres of wasteland in a day, and hundreds of hectares of wasteland in a few days. In the end, if the wheat seeds weren't there, these enthusiastic women could open up more wasteland.

　　This speed of opening up wasteland and planting seeds, even a fool can see the effect of tame bison + advanced farming tools.

　　With so many farmland, needless to say, the harvest next year will definitely increase greatly.

　　 More than sixty warriors in the tribe are divided into six groups. Every day, their task is to catch bison and hunt prey.

However, the continuous capture of the bison, let the bison know that it is not easy to mix around the Gaoshu tribe, from time to time, the bison is caught by the two-legged monsters. If it is still in this area, it is estimated that it will be all caught in a short time. Light.

　　 So the cows simply started to stay away from the Gaoshu tribe. Even if it is not easy to find food in other places, it is better than being caught and enslaved by those two-legged monsters!

　　 Don't look at the cows who can't speak, but they are not fools. As herbivores, they are more sensitive to danger.

　　 So now, don’t look at the tribe sending out many warriors every day to catch bison, but the daily results are getting less and less. At the near stage, six groups of warriors go out to catch bison, sometimes only one bison can be captured a day.

　　 Compared with the dejection of the warrior who caught the bison, it was prosperous on the side of Xiaoyan Mountain, and all the people there were happy smiles on their faces.

　　 This kind of smile has not disappeared on the faces of these tribesmen since the Vasichus’ trading team left.

At present, there are almost two hundred people who make salt on the side of Xiaoyan Mountain. Except for those who clear wasteland and cultivate land and catch bison, the remaining people in the tribe are almost concentrated in Xiaoyanshan as long as they can still work. This side of Yanshan.

　　 The salt-making team with only a hundred people last time was just busy for seven or eight days, and the salt that was made replaced all the things brought by the Vasichus. This is something that has never happened in the tribe.

　　 people used to value salt very much, but now almost every household can get dozens of catties of salt every day. Who cares about this?

　　 But in the eyes of those Vasichus, these table salt is an extremely precious material, and the effect of exchanging this "worthless" table salt for the things brought by the Vasichus is surprisingly good.

　　 The tribesmen who tasted the sweetness came to Xiaoyanshan spontaneously and began to make salt day and night. Because Master Guardian said, the next time those Vasicchus come over, they will bring a lot of horses to exchange for the salt.

　　 Compared to the ironware that is no longer lacking in the tribe, horses are the favorite thing of the tribe.

　　 If the salt made by me can really be exchanged for a horse~www.readwn.com~, whatever you do in the future, it will be much more convenient.

　　 So the people's enthusiasm for salt making is even higher than the flames in the earth blast furnace!

　　 It wasn't long before Major Hank and the others left. The journey from the tribe to Jamestown was more than six hundred miles. Even Major Hank was a carriage, but it took at least a month to go back and forth.

　　 The next time Major Hank’s people come here to make a deal, at least a month and a half later. They also need to organize the trading of supplies, especially the precious war horses.

　　 Even the children in the tribe, now in groups, either help out at Xiaoyanshan or go out to mow the grass and feed the cows...

　　 So, Shi Xiong suddenly felt like he had nothing to do.

　　 The stone bear who was free from trouble wandered around and wanted to talk to Hongyun, but when he arrived at Hongyun's residence, she found out that she was not there.

　　 asked an old woman living next to Hongyun. The old woman said that Kabru had gone to the tribal warehouse for sacrifice.

　　 When Shi Xiong found Hong Yun in the large warehouse of the tribe, he found that Hong Yun was counting the remaining seeds in the warehouse with a few women.

　　The women in the tribe are the main force in farming, so the storage and quantity of seeds are almost all controlled by the women leaders in the tribe.

　　 Like the lack of wheat seeds this time, Hongyun's attention has been paid. That's why she came to the tribe warehouse to check the number of seeds stored.

　　 The wooden house in the tribal warehouse is smaller than the chamber, but there are six such wooden houses, all of which store the most important materials in the tribe.

　　 Seeing Hongyun and the others were clearing the seeds, the aching stone bear wandered around in the wooden house. Soon, he was attracted by a dustpan that was not in the middle of the winter.
