Chapter 207 A different era(2/2)

When Hu Guanzhu returned to Jinshan City, he not only brought back ten large ships, but also thousands of sailors and crew members.

More importantly, they also brought dozens of Yingtian Taisheng Ph.D.

These imperial students were sent by Zhu Han specifically to draw maps of the New World.

Due to the great development of observational astronomy, current Yingtiantai students can calculate approximate longitude and latitude based on the sun, moon and stars, which means they can make more accurate maps.

Zhu Han felt that since the Ming Dynasty was planning to completely colonize the New World, it must master the preparation materials.

In Jinshan City, Hu Guanzhu and his men were ready to set out again.

More than a dozen large ships headed toward the sea along the island chain. Native American mountain eagles and others served as guides and guided the Ming army on board.

When they arrived at the tribe where Mountain Eagle belonged again.

The local indigenous barbarians immediately received the news and came to greet him excitedly.

The elders of this tribe almost regarded the arrival of Hu Guanzhu and others as messengers sent by the gods.

Hu Guanzhu ordered his men to complete the transaction with a large number of copper and iron utensils.

This time not only gold and silver and other items were traded, Hu Guanzhu also reached another transaction with the other party.

That is to obtain a land close to the sea.

Hu Guanzhu will build a castle here, echoing the Jinshan Fort in the north and south.

Build another pier and a tall lighthouse.

Because the scale of exchanges between the Ming Dynasty and the New World will become larger and larger in the future, the only place Jinshan can no longer be used.

Hu Guanzhu led the Ming army soldiers, hired some local indigenous people with some supplies, dug trenches on the seaside to collect soil, cut down the surrounding wood, and soon built a simple fortress.

The outer perimeter of the fortress was defended by ditches and horseback, leading to the pier on the seaside.

The establishment of this terminal is even simpler.

The trees here are extremely tall, and trees over ten feet tall are commonplace.

After using dozens of precious war horses and oxen, these huge felled logs were finally transported to the seaside.

After some simple nailing, these logs were inserted into the seawater to build a simple dock.

In just one month, a large-scale fortress was erected on the seaside.

The white buffalo tribe next to them all knelt down and prayed to the sky after seeing the completed fortress.

Hu Guanzhu was already able to communicate very fluently with these indigenous people.

This barbarian tribe calls itself the White Bison. Legend has it that their ancestors chased a white buffalo and arrived here, and then settled here.

However, according to Hu Guanzhu's observation, these barbarians are not actually settled at all.

Their farming skills are very poor, and their memory is not very good either.

Often, some strange crop seeds are sown in a piece of land and then ignored.

In fact, many times the harvest is not harvested that year, but often has to wait until the second or even third year.

Thinking about the output, it is definitely very impressive.

It's just a waste of time to settle down, so forget it and continue nomadic fishing and hunting.

this day.

Hu Guanzhu and his men had just strengthened the defense of the fortress on the seaside, and a bison weighing several hundred kilograms was boiling in the pot for dinner.

Black Wolf, the elder of the White Bison Tribe, came over under the leadership of Mountain Eagle.

“We, the White Buffalo Tribe, respect the messengers of God and ask God’s messengers to protect us!”

"Old Bai, are you in trouble?"

Hu Guanzhu affectionately called the elder of the White Buffalo tribe the name he gave him.

Encouraged by the large number of novelty gadgets, the entire White Buffalo tribe has regarded Hu Guanzu and the others as gods-like figures.

Even if he is not a god, he should still be a messenger of the god.

Especially with the construction of the strong city of the fortress and the tall lighthouse, it further consolidated the image of Hu Guan as a god to protect them.

"Now our White Bison Tribe is in trouble. The Black Bear Tribe in the south and others have robbed our land and are not allowing us to cross the river to hunt. Therefore, we must take revenge and take back our hunting grounds. We

We want you to help us."

Elder Bai Heilang said matter-of-factly.

According to his divination last night, these gods will help them defeat their enemies and regain their land.

Since God has already given this hint, there is no need for White and Black Wolf to be polite.

"Then how do you want us to help you?" Hu Guanzhu asked.

This white buffalo tribe is neither big nor small.

If more than two hundred strong men, big and small, can be bullied by the surrounding tribes, it means that the enemy is far stronger than them.

The area where these North American savage tribes lived was vast and sparsely populated, and Hu Guanzhu had no intention of intervening in their conflicts.

"Lend us fifty of your artifacts!" Baiheilang said.

"Fifty artifacts?" Hu Guan asked.

The so-called artifacts are actually ordinary daggers. These daggers are steel knives about two feet long and are used as cutting tools.

However, for the White Bison tribe who cannot smelt, it is an absolute artifact.

It's infinitely stronger than the wooden sticks and bone knives in their hands.

"Fifty, that's fifty!" Elder Bai Heilang repeated again.

Hu Guan took a look and thought he was very principled.

In fact, the real reason is that the elder White and Black Wolf feels that fifty of such precious artifacts are enough. If he asks for more, he will appear greedy and will make the gods angry!

Hu Guanzhu thought for a moment and decided to agree to their request.

However, he also put forward conditions.

"Since you all know that we are people sent by the gods, as long as you follow the teachings of the Emperor of Heaven, the fifty steel knives will be given to you." Hu Guanzhu said.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This sentence is not a lie, they came under the order of the emperor.

The Son of Heaven is the son of Heaven, and naturally he is also a god.

"Yeah, yeah." The white and black wolf elders were greatly surprised and nodded wildly.

"First, from now on, everyone in your tribe must learn to speak our language."

"Second, from now on, you have to send people to help us guard the outside of this castle."

Faced with these two conditions, Elder Bai Heilang nodded without hesitation.

Seeing that Elder Lao Bai agreed to his request, the third item should not be difficult.

"Third, you have to help us get back women, at least a thousand people, oh, a thousand is a bit too much, let's start with at least two hundred!"

Elder Bai Heilang agreed to all the requests made by Hu Guanzhu without even thinking about them.

For them, there is no clan concept at all, and they don't care about where women belong.

Especially the plundered women from other tribes, isn't it normal to offer some women to the messengers of the gods?

However, Elder Bai Heilang agreed to the request, but there was no chance of it being realized.

Because not two days have passed.

On the tower of the fortress, the sentry of the Jinshan Protectorate discovered something strange.

"Captain, there are a large number of barbarians coming from a distance. They don't look like good people!" The sentry leader immediately came to report.

"There are no good people here to begin with." Hu Guanzhu was very disdainful of this statement.

When he walked to the tower, he happened to see patches of black smoke in the distance.

The location of the White Buffalo Tribe is already a sea of ​​fire.

"This is a surprise attack."

Hu Guanzhu took out a telescope and observed the situation in the distance.

At this time, a large number of people came in a hurry outside the camp.

The leader is none other than the Black Wolf Elder of the White Buffalo Tribe.
