Chapter 818 Rapid development is enviable
"You mean these pottery were produced by this tribe called Xuanniao?"
"Yes, sir." The man in the middle nodded and said:
"It is said that three years ago, the 'god' of the Xuanniao Tribe appeared. Since the second year, the Xuanniao Tribe has become stronger. In addition to a large amount of exquisite pottery, there is also a lot of food. People in the Xuanniao Tribe can eat two meals a day."
When everyone here heard the man's words, they couldn't help but be surprised. Of course, they didn't believe that everyone could have two meals a day. This standard is extremely high. Not to mention that their medium-sized tribes can't do it even if they are large tribes.
"Sir, do you think this Xuanniao tribe has betrayed the Bird God and defected to the Niu Tribe? Otherwise, how could they have such a technique? Everyone knows that the most skilled in growing food and making pottery in the world is the Niu Tribe." The man in the middle said in a low voice.
"Well, it makes sense. It seems that this Xuanniao tribe has betrayed the Bird God." Several others nodded. Whether it was two meals a day or not, the exquisite pottery making technology was enough to make them excited.
In fact, they also knew that it was impossible to surrender to the Niu Tribe. They were still very far away from the Niu Tribe. This small tribe called Xuanniao had no ability to surrender to the Niu Tribe. Moreover, the Niu Tribe would not hand over the technology of planting and pottery making to a small tribe.
But these are not important. What is important is that they need a name, the name of the Xuanniao tribe that is openly attacked, and betrayal of the Bird God is the best name. Fighting between tribes of the same level is not in a name, but if they bully small tribes, they need a name, otherwise if they fight at will, they will cause panic and uneasiness.
"How many people are there in this Xuanniao tribe?" asked an elder in the middle.
"The Xuanniao Tribe is a small tribe with less than a thousand people." The man in the middle said quickly.
Tribes are generally collectives formed by the combination of several clans and clans of similar blood ties, gathering in the same area.
One thousand people and below are small tribes, one thousand to five thousand people are medium tribes, and more than five thousand people are large tribes, and there are no tribes with more than 20,000 people. This is a natural limitation. The current management level and production of Li cannot feed so many people in the same area. Although there are no tribes with more than 20,000 people, there is a "tribal alliance".
For example, all the tribes of bird totem are a "tribal alliance", but the main body of this alliance is large tribes. Small tribes like Xuanniao are almost ignored or become cannon fodder. Large tribes of the same tribe alliance generally do not attack internally, and they mainly unite externally.
Tribal alliances often fight each other. For resources such as water, land, slaves, etc., the Cattle Tribe is the only tribal alliance in this area that can fight against the Bird Tribe.
Large tribes will not attack each other internally because they can seize other tribe alliances, but small tribes will. In order to survive, there will basically be small tribes fighting every day, and medium tribes are relatively better.
The Xuanniao Tribe can grow from a tribe of 400 to a tribe of thousands in less than three years, and it becomes powerful by constantly annexing small tribes around it.
This move finally caused panic among the small tribes around. So, some tribes went to the medium-sized tribe to complain, hoping that the medium-sized tribe could take action.
The temptation they showed was great enough. The technology of making exquisite pottery was equivalent to currency in this era, and good pottery was equivalent to large amounts of currency. With the technology of not knowing the true or falsehood, the medium-sized tribe decided to send troops to the ground with money and grain.
Xuanniao Tribe.
Now the Xuanniao tribe has moved. It was moved a year ago. Originally, the Xuanniao tribe was located at the foot of the mountain. Although it was not bad there, there was not enough place to grow crops and could not supply the growing population, so Chen Kan migrated the entire tribe.
More importantly, there is a salt well here that can produce salt. You should know that humans are an animal that cannot be separated from salt. It is not based on the sea. Salt is more expensive than anything else. If you find such a good thing, you must protect it.
When rebuilding the tribe, Chen Kan re-planned it. The entire tribe was in order. There were low city walls rammed with earth and several observation decks built with wood to protect the tribe. Chen Kan lived as a priest on the southernmost side of the tribe. Because the bird's nest is generally facing the sun and leeward, people believed that the bird god also lived in the south.
Chen Kan is still the richest person in the entire tribe. Chen Kan mainly has a large number of slaves under his command, and more than half of the slaves in the entire Xuanniao Tribe are in the hands of Chen Kan.
"Prince, we have recently discovered that several tribes around us have changed a lot. We have discovered a lot of footprints while hunting."
"Western team is right, and the same traces were found in the hunting direction east of us."
There are more than 1,000 people in the Xuanniao Tribe, of which more than 400 are from the original Xuanniao Tribe, and the other 800 people were transformed by two small tribes and some slaves from the Xuanniao Tribe. In order to promote the sense of competition, Chen Kan divided them into three hunting teams, each with one hundred people. This is the main combat power of the tribe, and each is responsible for the three directions east and west.
As for the names of leaders, they are called East Team, West Team and South Team, which Chen Kan chose. Although there were names before, they all used simple syllables. Chen Kan sometimes wondered whether modern people often use the word "heat" to call people. Did it start from this time, because many people call this name.
"It seems that these people are not stupid. They know that they have joined forces. Don't go out these two days, and all hunting and gathering will stop." With Chen Kan's knowledge, he naturally thought of what was going on.
"Yes." After hearing Chen Kan's order, they immediately understood what was going on. The happy expression appeared on their faces. This is a war again. It is good to fight, and fighting can increase slaves. This is their favorite thing.
Although the Xuanniao tribe has only more than 1,000 people, there are more than 2,000 slaves, and each family has at least one slave. These are obtained by constantly conquering the surrounding tribes. Of course, the life of slaves in this era is not as good as that of the slave society in textbooks. If you perform well, you can still become a "reformed".
"Be careful, if there are too many casualties at that time, don't blame me for being rude." Chen Kan said angrily.
"Don't worry, priest, we must let them see how powerful we are." The three of them said confidently.
