In addition to enclosing land and water and beating people everywhere, Gonggong has made an amazing move in recent years, which is to further domesticate horses.
Horses, identified based on various unearthed fossils, sites, and documents, were probably domesticated in the late Neolithic Age.
Among them, relatively clear evidence of early domestication of horses can be found at the Potai site in Kazakhstan, where a large number of horse bones, hundreds of thousands of them, tons of horse teeth and horse dung were found, dating from about 3500-3000 BC. year, belonging to the copper age.
There are also similar sites of the same period in the nearby grasslands and hilly areas of North Kazakhstan.
In China, horse bones and the bones of the other five animals were also unearthed from the sites of the Yangshao Culture. Therefore, ancient China had completely domesticated the six animals during the Yangshao period.
When horses were first domesticated, apart from transportation, their remaining role was just like cattle, used to plow fields.
Therefore, when Yu Zai promoted cattle farming and this influence spread to the entire mountains and seas, the world generally entered the age of cattle farming, and tribes without cattle would find some substitutes...
Like a strange beast, a donkey, or a horse, or something like a lamb.
In the past, when Yan Zai chatted with Chishui Nvxian online and taught Chishui Nvxian how to be a methane bomber, the people of the Qusou clan rode some domesticated horses, but in this era, because there were no stirrups, Because of the saddle, riding a horse requires a high level of driving.
Otherwise, he will be like Yu Zai, who will suffer from vomiting and diarrhea after riding a horse and will be half dead.
These horses that have been domesticated again by Gonggong have a more docile character and better endurance than their previous generation. However, correspondingly, it seems that because they do not conduct long-distance training very much, their explosive power is somewhat less... .
Moreover, this time Gonggong, holding back his big move in the Western Wilderness, unexpectedly invented the horse's reins and horse bit for him.
In this way, a leap in combat level has been achieved. Human riders no longer need to have overly strong control power. In other words, originally those who rode horses must be first-rate knights, but now second-rate ones can also go into battle.
This is equivalent to a self-driving vehicle having a steering wheel and adding manual driving and braking functions.
As a result, Gonggong became more and more adept at plundering the surrounding tribes. Those horse riders came and went like the wind and moved around freely. Although they could not capture the big cities and mountains, they had become useful to the tribes living in the valleys or near the mountains. Their nightmare.
Gonggong relied on the plundered wealth and slaves to start building water conservancy projects. Many people in the tribe could not understand it. However, Gonggong said that the big shots in the Central Plains had said that his engineering facilities were empty talk and were not effective, and they refused to approve funding. , now we withdraw from the alliance and work alone. If we succeed, then we will be a great person who will be remembered forever. If we fail, then we will drown those old dogs in the Central Plains.
No matter what happens, we will not lose, everything is according to plan!
Gonggong’s ministers spoke:
"But I heard that Tai Ni has been appointed as the flood control Sikong in the Central Plains..."
Gonggong laughed and didn't take it seriously: "Tai Ni! At this point, an old guy can still..."
"Also, Chong Bogun's son seems to have changed a lot. His flood control methods have been widely praised in the Central Plains. How many years have passed."
"Hmph! Can a little kid even compare with me?"
Gonggong pointed to the river and a large area of water conservancy surrounding it, and proudly said to his ministers: "The only person I can regard as an opponent is the people from the south. His water control measures have inspired me a lot. Now The person I am today is no longer the person I used to be. I have absorbed his ideas on water management and have become stronger than before!"
"The great spectacle I built this time... Although I said that if I miss it, I will drown the people in the Central Plains, I have made a decision in my heart that I will not miss it this time!"
"Look at the shining stars in the sky and the afterglow that has not yet set. It is our ancestors who are watching us!"
Gonggong gave a speech, which moved him so much that his courtiers wiped their sweat, and then talked about his son.
"I heard that Xiu is now captured by Zhongyuan..."
"Huh! I haven't cared about him for so many years. What does life and death have to do with me?"
Gonggong doesn't care about Xiu's life or death. He just wants to build a big wonder of water control. He relies on the plundered population and tribes to accumulate strength crazily and becomes a king here. He is bound to build a big wonder and complete slaves. A huge dynasty.
"Let me think about it, if I become the co-owner of the world, then according to the past saying, I should take Gonggong as the name of this era. From now on, please call me Emperor Kongren or Emperor Gonggong..."
"Big Chief, I heard that the Central Plains released a message saying that no one is allowed to call themselves 'Emperor'..."
"You use the laws of the previous dynasty to suppress the emperor of this dynasty?"
Gonggong snorted, and then began to discuss the recent construction of some infrastructure with his ministers.
After the spread of various tool systems in the south, in the past ten years, larger tribes have been undergoing restructuring, fully absorbing some of the systems and technologies spread in the south, and transforming them into their own "characteristic societies." ....
Building water conservancy has become the first priority for each large tribe, so construction skills must be improved, followed by agricultural technology. For example, the Dihong family wants to develop metallurgical technology, while the Gonggong tribe focuses on building cities and cavalry.
New technologies have taken root and sprouted all over the mountains and seas, and bloomed with gorgeous flowers in these mountains and fields. In the past ten years, because agricultural production has been driven to an extremely high level, even if it has experienced some major turmoil After the war, the population recovered much faster than in previous decades.
Gonggong has determined the target to attack next!
"We have conquered the Inufeng Kingdom and the Mushan Kingdom. The Shushi Kingdom is our ally, and the Bai Kingdom of Daze Changshan is willing to become our slave..."
"King Chang Hu in the north still wants to form an alliance with us. Is he worthy? I just heard that he paid tribute to the Central Plains!"
"Next, attack the First Republic of China. After the First Republic of China is conquered, if Chishui woman Xian wants to stop her, we will attack her. If she dare not step out of Zunye Ze, then we will attack Wo Republic of China!"
"Wo Republic..."
Gonggong's ministers were startled, but Gonggong looked at him and nodded:
"Yes, the Wo Min Kingdom is a vassal state of the Queen Mother of the West. Attacking the Wo Min Kingdom is equivalent to starting a war with the Queen Mother of the West. But so what, the people of the Queen Mother of the West dare not come down to fight. I have become allies with the three tribes of Kunlun!"
Gonggong said that the population will grow in a few years, and with the plundered slaves and the cavalry troops who continue to be domesticated and trained, there is no need to be afraid of the Queen Mother of the West!
New living habits and new production methods, as well as sufficient food compared to the population of this era, ensure the survival rate of newborns. The population of the tribe is increasing rapidly. In just ten years, There will be explosive growth.
Therefore, among the mountains and seas, the tribes in some places do not offer sacrifices to the agricultural masters of the Central Plains such as "Houji" and "Taixi", but to a certain person whose name has not been revealed too much, but whose belief has been widely spread. God of the South.
........
In a certain tribe, you can see some wooden sculptures. On the left is the Dayu God Tablet set up to pray for floods to go away, while on the right is the Southern God Tablet set up to pray for a good harvest.
