On the next road, for chief junaruska and his party, the surprise was really one after another.
Along this flat and hard cement road, you can see several soldiers standing in the dangerous position in every dangerous place. Obviously, these soldiers should be on guard posts. If they don't take the initiative to stand up, it's hard for outsiders to find that there will be a guard post here.
With the existence of these guard posts, it is obviously impossible for the enemy to sneak along this road. Whether it's the horn or the smoke, it's enough to expose the enemy's whereabouts.
Although many guard posts have been set up in the valley near Monongahela, they are not as hidden as the guard posts here. After going back, we can completely use the guard posts here to transform the guard posts near the royal court.
The tight defense made chief junaruska and his party very happy.
But when they arrived at the gaoshu tribe and saw the farmland across the river, the shock was even greater than everything they had seen before.
Although the Cherokee were driven out of the Great Lakes region by the Iroquois and the delavais, they came to monongahira and got in touch with the British more. Therefore, the Cherokee's transformation from a semi farming and semi hunting nation to a farming nation was faster.
The Cherokee people, who have long realized that farming is an important source of food, now pay more and more attention to farming.
However, due to the lack of advanced farming tools and methods, the farming of the Cherokee people is still in a relatively primitive stage.
On the contrary, we can't see such a large area of cultivated land in Monongahela.
Because of the advanced farming tools and tame bison, the farmland of gaoshu tribe may not be as neat as that of modern farming in later generations. However, in the new world of North America in this era, it is absolutely the only existence of scorpion shit. Even the farmland of European colonists is not as neat as that of gaoshu tribe.
Don't underestimate the tidiness of farmland. On the surface, tidiness seems to be beautiful, but in fact, it represents an order, which belongs to farming alone.
In fact, farming is also a kind of work that needs order very much. When to open up wasteland, how to sow, how to weed, water, fertilize, and how to harvest, we should pay attention to order. If there is no order, it means that there is no production or even no harvest.
Chief junaluska and his party have not yet made clear the relationship between them, but this does not affect the large area of neat farmland that can't be seen at a glance and completely shake them!
Obviously, such a large area of farmland has been harvested. How much food does that mean?
With this shock, when they see a group of kids with a group of bison leisurely grazing in the wilderness, their kind of shock is even greater.
"You have completely tamed the bison in the wilderness?" Chief junaluska asked everyone's questions.
"Yes, thanks to the taming skills invented by the guardians, otherwise it would be impossible to tame so many bison. However, once the bison is tamed, these big guys can bring us great help, no matter whether it's reclamation, farming or harvest. Well, it's like the vast area of farmland that our tribe has opened up in the west of the river. 90% of the farmland is contributed by these people. Without these tame bison, our tribe can't cultivate such a large farmland. " Hongyun is more proud.
High priest bakaluzu asked in a low voice, "high priest kabulu, can you teach us how to tame bison? In this way, our people can reclaim more wasteland and have more food to eat. " Although the high priest bakaluzu is the current tribal high priest, and he is much older than Hongyun, in front of Hongyun, the real high priest kabulu, the high priest bakaluzu has to keep his respect.
"It's not a problem. Even if you don't tell me, I will teach you how to tame bison in the future. Taming more bison is of great help to enhance the strength of our tribe. And I'll tell you, the tamed bison can not only be used for farming, but also help us to do other things. At the critical moment, the bison can also act as a surprise force, and the effect is very good. One day last winter, a group of French Musketeers and a group of chekasa attacked our tribe. We beat them down with bison... "
All the people, including chief junaruska, were stunned by the firebull battle that Hongyun told. They never thought that the bison, who used to only serve as meat on the table, had such ability after being tamed.
If the tamed bison are really used in the army, they can be used to carry heavy loads. At the critical moment, gather a group of bison and light their tails. This is an invincible assault team
Large areas of farmland, tamed bison and cash farming tools may not be as busy as the prosperous construction sites of big green hill tribe, but the shock to chief junaluska and his party is undoubtedly greater.
When they entered the tribe, the hardened roads, the new houses made of rock, cement and cement boards, and the hardworking people all showed how vibrant the tribe was.
What shocked chief junaluska even more was that almost everyone in the tribe was equipped with ironware. This kind of iron, which is very precious even in the royal court, is almost the least valuable thing in this tribe.
There are also the kind of cotton clothes that ethnic people wear, which is even more luxurious. You know, few people in the royal court can wear this kind of clothes made of cotton cloth. But here, almost everyone is wearing cotton clothes.
When a truck of refined salt from the small salt mountain appeared in front of chief junaruska, a group of tribal leaders almost glared when they saw the fine and white salt.
It's no wonder that even those vasichu would take the initiative to trade this kind of salt. It would be very good if they didn't grab it.
This group of tribal leaders never thought that there was a tribe within their own territory that could produce such good salt. Who would have been willing to trade salt with the greedy pamangis if they had known that the high priest kabulu tribe could produce such good salt!
If the vast farmland, the grain piled up in the warehouse, the tame bison, the fitting clothes, the fine ironware and the delicate and white salt of gaoshu tribe shocked chief junaluska and his party inexplicably, then when they heard the loud noise like a bolt from the blue in the distance, they almost peed on the spot
