Super Chief

　　 Lieutenant Ferguson took fast horses, hard bones and rabbit mouths to make gunpowder. Of course, he did it according to the formula provided by Shixiong.

Although there is no castor oil in the tribe as a private agent, the private agent itself is not used much. In addition, there are some peanut oil in the tribe. Let the gunpowder become particles, so Lieutenant Ferguson plans to make a new type of gunpowder to try the power of this gunpowder.

　　 Most of the people in the tribe are still making salt. Because the weather was too cold, the women who opened up wasteland and farmed land are not opening up wasteland anymore. Instead, they went to Xiaoyanshan and followed a piece of salt to make salt.

　　 After this group of women comparable to adult male warriors joined the salt-making army, the production of refined salt in the tribe immediately increased by a big margin. When Major Hank comes next time, his face will be blooming.

Some of the warriors in the tribe still go out every day to catch the bison. Ever since they witnessed the power of the Fire Bull Array at Gaoshu Pass, Li Lei, Bigfoot and even Hongyun have paid special attention to the domestication of bison.

　　 They understood at this time why the Guardian had spent so much effort to catch and tame the bison.

　　 This kind of large livestock is really good. You only need to feed them weeds every day, but these tamed cattle can not only greatly improve the efficiency of farming, but also can be used as a surprise soldier at critical moments.

　　 Had it not been for the Fire Bull formation last time, I am afraid that the Gaoshu tribe no longer exists.

　　 This can be clearly known from the group of soldiers in the tribe who are now training to use muskets.

　　The warriors in the tribe are still taking turns to catch the bison. Except for a few of the remaining warriors who have to go around the tribe to choose suitable locations to set up guard posts, the other warriors are all practicing how to use the musket under the instruction of Lieutenant Ferguson.

The hundred or so muskets seized from the French can’t be wasted, and Shixiong knows very well that if the Gaoshu tribe is to grow and even dominate the continent in the future, then the warriors in the tribe must use heat weapons. Practice from now on.

　　 No matter how powerful a cold weapon is, it cannot be better than a hot weapon. This has been proven by history.

　　 The people in the tribe each have their own work, each of them is too busy to deal with each other, on the contrary, the guardian of the stone bear has become idle again.

The foot of the Great Smoky Mountain in winter is indeed a bit idle. The weather is too cold. Except for some hungry wolves, almost all other animals are in Maodong. It is hard to find if you want to go out and hunt. the goal.

　　 I want to squeeze some more oil, but after searching the warehouse, Shixiong did not find any extra soybeans or peanuts. The soybeans and peanuts left in the warehouse are reserved for planting next year, and they must not be moved.

　　 As for wheat, the seeds are also reserved. Shixiong plans to use some wheat to make some flour to make steamed buns and noodles.

　　 I want to make wine, but how can I make wine before the second twist? But what makes Shixiong feel at ease is that the fermentation of the koji is very good, which can be regarded as a touch of comfort to his lonely heart...

　　Wandering around, Master Guardian plans to make some steel again, but this kind of work like steelmaking has never been done by one person. Using a crucible to make steel has an ass. It took a lot of effort and couldn't make many things. In the end, Shixiong reluctantly gave up the idea of ​​reopening the furnace to make steel.

　　 There is no shortage of steel in the tribe now, um, there is no shortage of steel for the time being, so the tribe has no enthusiasm for steelmaking at the beginning. The most important thing is that salt can get a lot of "good things" from Waxichu, so the people's enthusiasm for salt is far greater than other things.

　　 It was only at this time that Shi Xiong realized that the shortage of manpower was so embarrassing.

　　 Even if our guardian has a lot of ideas in his mind, there are so many people in the Naihe tribe. Before the steam engine was invented, almost all the work required a lot of manpower to do.

　　 No one, everything can only be fantasy.

There are many small tribes around Gaoshu tribe, just like the Shaggy Cattle Tribe and the exterminated Pumpkin Bay tribe. Such small tribes have a radius of more than 100 around Gaoshu tribe. There are more than ten in the range.

　　 If all these tribes are called back, then the number of Gaoshu tribes will immediately break through the 1,500-person mark! This number is enough to make the Gaoshu tribe rank among a medium-to-large tribe.

　　 If you are more greedy and conquer the more distant tribe, then the high tree tribe will not be a problem even if it becomes a large tribe or even a super-large tribe.

　　 But it still doesn't work now. At least it will be after the harvest next year before we can determine the next step to conquer the surrounding tribes based on the grain output.

　　 Food is the most critical basis for the rise of the tribe!

　　 You brought people in, but there was no food for them to eat, who would follow you? It's good if people don't instigate you!

　　 Therefore, next year’s food production is the fundamental factor that determines whether the tribe can grow.

　　 It’s just that, even if it’s now in the Moon of the Wolf (January), there is still half a year before the month of Strawberry (June) when the wheat is harvested...

　　 can't make steel~www.readwn.com~ can't make wine. After two days of training with a group of fighters, he immediately lost his interest. This made Shixiong really do nothing.

　　 Seeing that even big people like Li Lei and Hong Yun were busy with the clansmen, Shi Xiong suddenly felt that he was a superfluous person.

　　 "Go to her sister and sister, Lao Tzu is no longer wandering around in the tribe, Lao Tzu has to find something for himself, otherwise I can't survive this winter..."

　　 So Shi Xiong decided to come to a realistic version of "Survival in the Wilderness". Well, to be precise, he planned to go hunting in the wilderness to the west and take a "vacation."

　　 No way, Stone Bear also wants to go to Miami Beach in Florida or the Caribbean Islands further south for vacation in this cold season, but he can't go, really can't go.

　　At this time, Miami was still a fortress, and it was the territory of Spain and Seminoles. Fortunately for the Spaniards, but the Seminoles are not. They are a branch of the Cree. With the hatred of the Cherokee and Cree, Shi Xiong estimated that if he went there at this time, he might have The Seminoles were killed.

　　 As for going to the Caribbean Islands, well, that's a good choice.

　　 Shixiong believes that with the strength of his current physique, he can definitely become a pirate leader there. Who dares to refuse, just do it!

　　 But Shixiong is really reluctant to leave here.

　　 So, planning to come and go, Shi Xiong decided to go to the west alone.

　　 Of course, what he said to the tribes was "Go to the Chekasha territory to the west to examine the enemy's situation."

　　 This reason really moved the people's hearts again...
