Not to mention, this guy's report is clear and well-reasoned, and he is really the type that the leader likes most.
Based on his report, Xiao Feng learned that last fall, both Riverrun and Twin Towers had a bumper harvest in agriculture, and the food they produced was enough for the entire Pennivera Peninsula to last until the next year.
It has to be said at this point that such a bumper harvest is really possible thanks to the fertility of the land on this planet.
In terms of farming, the natives here are at the level of entry-level farmers in China. Xiao Feng brought them many farm tools, such as hoes and fences, which greatly improved their work efficiency.
The emergence of a large number of domesticated animals, such as horses and cattle, also greatly improved their work efficiency.
Therefore, in the absence of chemical fertilizers and the manual removal of insects and weeds, they were able to achieve such a bumper harvest, thanks to the fertile soil of the planet, and also to God's blessing. No major natural disasters have occurred in the past two years.
There is another key factor, which is that Xiao Feng brought them more advanced storage technology.
In fact, in ancient times on earth, people often went hungry. The reason for famine was not because the annual harvest was not enough, but because the storage technology was really poor.
Every year, a lot of food rots and deteriorates due to improper storage, or is destroyed by snakes, ants, insects, and rats. After Xiao Feng brought very advanced storage technology and knowledge to these indigenous people, the efficiency of food storage was greatly improved.
.
In addition, according to Majes' report, his animal husbandry personnel have also been greatly improved through special training.
Now there is a special field hunting team. These people do the same work that Biluodis led people to do before. On the one hand, they go out to hunt wild animals and bring them back for storage.
Except for bison, which are not allowed to be eaten casually, other wild animals can be eaten openly, which provides a large amount of protein supplement to the tribal people.
In addition, they also captured a large number of bison, wild horses, wild sheep, wild boars, and even pheasants, wild ducks and other animals to domesticate.
At present, the number of livestock in the tribe has exceeded one million. This data shocked Xiao Feng.
However, large livestock such as horses were listed separately. Xiao Feng was relieved. It turned out to be just some flat-haired livestock. This was normal. After all, chickens, ducks and geese were easier to breed and domesticate.
.
The number of cattle and horses has reached 100,000. In order to better domesticate these large livestock, Majestic specially organized people to open up several large pastures in the wasteland outside the valley mouth to the south.
With these horses, the tribal army can have sufficient combat effectiveness, and some draft horses are also good helpers for farmers. They can not only be used for transportation, but also for plowing. Not to mention cattle, they are also good helpers for farmers.
.
After listening to Majes' report, Xiao Feng was very satisfied with the results of his work. He patted this guy on the shoulder. Such an intimate gesture from the top leader of the tribe almost made Majes so excited.
.
Looking at this guy's helpful expression, Xiao Feng secretly laughed, this guy is really an official fan.
At this time, a series of oxcarts came from a distance. The oxcarts were pulling various ores. The dwarves driving the carts were shouting and driving the oxcarts, transporting the carts of ore to a workshop in the south of the city.
Just as the motorcade passed by, a dwarf suddenly jumped out of the car and quickly came to Xiao Feng.
"Sir, are you back?"
Xiao Feng took a look and saw that this guy was one of the leaders of the dwarf tribe, the geological expert who was good at prospecting, Dean O'Gorman.
"Haha, Dean, I haven't seen you for a long time, why do you look so tired?"
This Dean's clothes were shabby and his hair was messy. It looked like he hadn't washed himself for a long time. He looked very embarrassed. Xiao Feng was very surprised by his image.
After all, they are also some of the main leaders of the base. How could they be so careless about their image?
Dean scratched his head in embarrassment: "Sir, my tasks here have been very heavy recently, so..."
Xiao Feng's expression changed after hearing this: "What? Do you have a heavy workload over there?"
He thought it was the dwarves who were being ostracized in the tribe, but what Dean said next made him put aside his worries.
"Yes, sir, you also know that now the population of the tribe has increased so much. We need a lot of tools and iron tools for food, clothing and housing. So our workload is very heavy. Not only do we have to go up the mountain to mine, but we also need to use a lot of iron tools.
I have to come back to build tools. In addition, city defense and the army require a lot of tools and weapons, so my task here is very heavy."
"I know about the army. They have a lot more troops and they do need a lot of weapons, but city defense... By the way, our city wall seems to have been raised a lot on Friday. Why do we need to build it so high?"
There have been several battles under Benliu City before, the most brutal one of which almost collapsed the container wall brought by Xiao Feng.
After that, the city wall was reinforced once. That time, large stones were quarried from the mountain, the foundation was dug again, these stones were used to pave the foundation, and then the containers were placed on these foundation stones.
After that time, the height of the city wall remained at 11 or 2 meters, but it was much stronger. But this time it was raised to more than 20 meters. This was very labor-intensive and material-intensive. The original height of the city wall was already high in Xiao Feng's opinion.
It was very insurmountable, but he didn't understand why he had cultivated to such a high level this time.
So he asked Wu Wu casually. Unexpectedly, after Wu Wu heard this, his expression changed, he looked around, and finally grabbed Xiao Feng's sleeve and led him directly to the city wall.
When he arrived at the city wall, Xiao Feng discovered that it turned out that the construction of the city wall had not been completed. The female wall on the city wall was still being raised, and people were building arrow towers, large trebuchets, etc. It looked like they really wanted to complete the city wall.
A wall of copper and iron!
Moreover, this city wall is even higher than the mountains on the right, and on the other side of the mountains, someone is actually building a city wall along the mountain ridge. The situation immediately reminds Xiao Feng of the Great Wall.
It seems that they will not stop building the city wall until they reach the farthest cliff with a steep angle of 90 degrees! Moreover, at the foot of the mountain, there are many people cutting down trees and clearing the terrain, so as to build some gentle slope areas.
Repaired to a steep and unclimbable angle.
But how much manpower and material resources will this consume?
Haven't we already laid down a front-line position in the Calabash Gorge? As a military buffer zone, it's already large enough. Why do we need to build such a high wall?
"Sir, the situation is not good. You are not here during this period, so you may not know much about the situation here. Let me explain to you..."
Then this Friday, I took Xiao Feng and whispered to him. It turned out that after Xiao Feng left last time, everyone started working according to their respective duties.
But it wasn't until the winter last year that Kyle and Bloom came back with Wild Bee General Pan Deli to convene a meeting with all leaders.
It turns out that last time Xiao Feng led a large group of people out of the Napal Grassland and went to the Karachi Mountains to bring back the mage Flamel. This action caused an uproar in the orc tribe.
Originally, their army was in the south to conquer the sluggish human empires. They didn't pay much attention to the humans on Xiao Feng's side, but because it was a disease of mustard moss, they were not afraid of it.
Although they defeated some of the orcs and captured Calabash Gorge, from the perspective of the upper echelons of the orcs, they were just taking advantage of the orc army to move south, leaving an empty rear, and those they defeated were only the old, weak, sick and disabled, so
Nothing to be afraid of.
Once the orc army pacifies the south and returns, give them a thunder blow and they can be eliminated.
But who would have thought that these guys would be so courageous. They were not honest enough to conquer the Calabash Gorge, and dared to go deep into the hinterland of the orcs to burn, kill, and loot. This was intolerable, because it made them feel that their homeland was threatened.
So the Orc Alliance mobilized a part of its army from the south, retreated overnight, and finally returned to their hometown before winter, but they did not return to the secret forest.
Instead, they chose to set up camp on the Napal Prairie, because winter was about to enter and it was not suitable for battle, so they kept making preparations there.
Kyle and the others have been investigating the information about this orc camp, and because of the existence of Pan Deli, a traitor to the orcs, they were able to get a lot of information that they could not get at all before.
It may be because last year's expedition to Qukai City encountered a flash flood halfway, it may be because there are too many troops on this expedition and logistics must be prepared, or it may be to block the mountain pass and prevent the human army from casually passing through the gourd.
Rushing out of the canyon.
These orcs did not rush over to attack the Calabash Gorge. Instead, they began to build a city at the remaining foothills of the Calabash Gorge mountain range near the Napal grassland. From here, after walking through the mountains for a few days, they could reach Qukai City.
, and then there is Calabash Gorge.
This action of the orcs aroused the vigilance of Kyle and the others.
Especially after sending out the wild bees and Broome riding the griffon to spy on the orc camp several times, Kyle and the others became even more panicked.
This time the Orcs really took them seriously. According to the intelligence spied on by the Wild Bees, this time the Orc Alliance organized a fifth of the alliance's army. It is said that there are 300,000 Orcs in the camp.
I came here this time to annihilate them in one fell swoop!
An army of 300,000 orcs! When the Toulon Empire was destroyed, the orcs only dispatched an army of 100,000 people!
Chapter completed!
