The early morning light shines on the earth, emitting circles of light yellow mysterious light.
Outside the gate of the central tribe and the northern stone city wall, 500 frontline warriors of the tribe were neatly arranged in ten columns, with fifty people in each column.
On both sides of the team were equally neatly arranged snow-covered demon wolves, one hundred each.
In addition to the five hundred frontline warriors of the tribe, one or two carriages were pulled out by the tribesmen inside the city gate and began to gather towards the large open space behind the warriors.
Today is the day for tribal warriors and tribesmen to go on an expedition.
It is also a very important day for the tribe. Winter supplies and food reserves must still be obtained by traveling far in the summer.
The only difference this year is that with the gradual development of the tribe, although the average strength of the warriors of the central tribe has not improved very much, because new small tribes are constantly joining.
But the warriors of the original tribe, as well as the first few batches of small tribe warriors who came over, have still greatly improved in strength.
With these warriors as the backbone of the tribe, Ye Qiong no longer needs to personally lead the team when traveling far away.
This time, it was Ye Tianling who was in charge of leading the long march to the rubble pile base.
Ye Tianling was originally at the Behemoth Base, but he came back this time to take the Yuan March Army to the Ruishui Base.
At the same time, there is a team of fifty people at the canyon base, which has also been assembled. They are also part of this long march and are responsible for pulling the two large boats from the canyon base to the rock pile base.
This year's two large ships have also undergone great changes in appearance compared with previous years.
While it is enlarged, it looks sturdier. The biggest difference is that there is some thick smoke coming out of the cabin...
Two of the earliest steam engines in the tribe have been obtained here. Although they are still the simplest ones, they can barely rotate the steam engine and the bottom hinge of the big ship, but their power to push the big ship is still limited.
But the billowing smoke on top of the big ship really gave it a sense of technology.
In addition to the steam engine-powered hinges, there are now two expanded cabins in the big ship, one for loading cargo, and the other for the soldiers to row the oars. Some holes have been dug on both sides to allow the oars to extend and retract.
The soldiers can power the ship by shaking the oars directly in the cabin.
In some areas where the water flow is gentle, the power generated by the steam engine can make the ship move forward slowly, but in some areas where the water flow is relatively turbulent, soldiers must paddle together to cross it.
After the large troops of the central tribe were assembled, they began to move towards the north following Ye Tianlong's order from the city wall.
Five hundred front-line warriors, plus a team composed of hundreds of tribesmen, after stretching out, it is still very large, and they have started this year's journey in a mighty way.
The team's direction this time was not to go directly to the rubble base, but to go to the behemoth base first.
After almost a whole winter of construction, there are now no problems with thousands of people crammed into the residential area of the Behemoth Base.
Now it can be used as a transfer station between a central tribe and a rock pile base.
Finally, this winter, we are now considering whether to arrange for soldiers to be stationed at the Ruishui Base.
With the Behemoth Base as a support, the Rock Pile Base can now develop freely.
The resources in the basin over there, after being utilized, will be very helpful to the development of the tribe.
Especially in the cliff area on the other side of the basin, Ye Qiong has always been very curious about what is hidden in it.
There are now more and more various ruins appearing in the peak areas around the Dinglong Mountains. If you want to explore these areas, you must have a certain degree of civilization strength in the tribe. Otherwise, it can only be discovered through the accumulation of life. okay.
Rather than risking his life for aggressive exploration, Ye Qiong prefers to explore more slowly while accelerating the development of the tribe.
As the saying goes, sharpening the sword will not waste time cutting wood. The tribe's current human resources are not many, and these resources must be used on the cutting edge.
The traveling team quickly disappeared into the distant mountains, and tranquility returned to the central tribe again.
As time goes by, spring is gradually coming to an end.
The crazy snowy summer is coming, and the temperature can now rise by about one degree every day, and the daytime temperature can already reach about 30 degrees.
The west side of the Dinglong Mountain Range is now full of life.
The green earth, the blue sky, and the strong vitality can be felt in your breath.
Ye Qiong spends most of his time these days at the Southern Timber Base.
The current southern timber base is no longer smaller than the waterfall base. With the development of the central tribe, the demand for timber is also slowly increasing. This is under the premise of coal as a thermal energy resource.
Most of the wood transported to the central tribes is used as building materials, so the requirements for wood are relatively high.
In the pyramid living area, there are arrow towers on the stone city walls, as well as tribal arrows and various weapon reserves. Various types of wood are used in many places.
The Southern Timber Base is still hidden in the dense forest. It adheres to Ye Qiong's requirements, which is to collect wood in an appropriate amount and start from a farther place.
So at the current timber base, if you look in from outside the dense forest, you can only vaguely see the tallest watchtowers, but you can't see the base below at all.
The watchtowers themselves are made of wood, and are now covered with various vines. Without looking carefully, it is difficult to find that there are human warriors on guard inside.
This mysterious dense forest base, in addition to daily wood processing, has begun to provide weapon resources to the central tribe and various bases, and is developing in the direction of an arsenal.
The base is mainly composed of a residential area and a processing area. A total of more than thirty two-story wooden houses have been built in the residential area, each covering an area of about 150 square meters, with five rooms on the upper and lower floors.
Each two-story wooden house can accommodate about twenty people at the same time, and more can be squeezed in.
Therefore, the residential area can now provide a place for 600 people to rest and live.
The processing area is mainly made of large wooden sheds. There are five in total. These wooden sheds were also built with the help of forest ancient apes.
Each one is nearly seven meters high and about thirty meters vertically and horizontally. It looks very large and strong.
Two of the wooden sheds had neatly arranged wooden piles and planks, all of which had been processed.
Every once in a while, these wooden piles and planks will be transported to the central tribe, and then transported from the central tribe to the canyon base, mountain base and coal mine base.
The demand for wood at the coal mine base is actually quite high, mainly to fill the internal space after coal mining...
