The last one is the logistics team!
It's called a logistics team, but it's really just a cooking squad!
There are seven of them, and for the time being, they are mainly responsible for the soldiers' food!
Since they are responsible for food, the issues of transportation and storage naturally arise.
Hou Wenjie had already ordered people to make saws, hammers, chisels, planes, and wooden rulers!
Then he taught everyone the mortise and tenon joint technique for carpentry!
Hou Wenjie split wood to make planks, and used tenons to connect the planks, demonstrating the process of making a wooden barrel to everyone!
They also used copper nails to nail wood to draw circles as wheels, creating the most primitive kind of cart!
Anyone familiar with mortise and tenon joints can make this! The only difference is how well or poorly it's done.
But for the people of the Long Serpent Clan, these tools made with mortise and tenon joints were nothing short of a gift from heaven!
These logistics soldiers all made their own carts, barrels, and wooden boxes for storing equipment!
It is difficult to create something from nothing, but it is much easier to go from one to three!
Just like Hou Wenjie only knew simple copper smelting and clothing making techniques, but he taught them to the people of the tribe, and they were able to continuously improve upon his methods!
In addition to teaching carpentry, Hou Wenjie also taught everyone how to cook!
Hou Wenjie had already ordered the weapons workshop to make two large copper pots using sand as molds!
The former great shaman tasted hundreds of herbs and taught the original body medical skills!
Hou Wenjie had already seen familiar star anise, bay leaves, and cardamom in those memories!
These are all essential ingredients for braising meat!
Compared to the past when people in the tribe relied entirely on roasting and braising to cook food, the utilization rate of meat has undoubtedly increased significantly!
Originally, the people in the tribe would simply discard their internal organs and intestines!
However, after Hou Wenjie taught these logistics soldiers how to clean and braise food, the original food shortage was greatly alleviated!
Moreover, the braised meat can be used to make soup, and compared to a small piece of roasted meat, everyone felt an unprecedented sense of satisfaction from the food!
These two copper pots were treasured by the logistics team. After each use, they were carefully cleaned and put away, for fear of any damage!
Hou Wenjie's gaze swept over all the soldiers who were about to set off, and he said:
Five years ago, the Deer Antler Clan seized our most important pasture!
Our pheasants, which we had domesticated for so long, became their food!
Now is the time to rebuild the glory of our Long Serpent Clan!
Today, we march our troops to the Western Mountains! To punish the Deer Horn Clan!
"Attack the Deer Horn Clan!"
"Attack the Deer Horn Clan!"
The soldiers below the stone platform raised their weapons and shouted in response!
The women, the elderly, and the children in the tribe all watched this scene with excitement!
Many people's eyes were already filled with tears.
The Long Serpent Clan's army set off, heading towards the settlement of the Deer Horn Clan!
Hou Wenjie did not arrange for advance scouts because, for the Long Serpent Clan at this time, warhorses were a luxury.
Since we're going to walk anyway, we might as well march together.
To make timing easier, Hou Wenjie had the training workshop specially make gears.
Although it was difficult to make and took a long time, it was finally completed.
Hou Wenjie also successfully assembled the world's first mechanical clock.
Don't ask him why he knows so much.
Knowing that he would be constantly traveling through time, he had already been slowly supplementing his basic knowledge.
I don't aim for anything too advanced, just the basics.
As a tool for telling time, Hou Wenjie would naturally study it.
Actually, making a clock is not complicated.
Even someone who knows nothing about computers can easily assemble it by looking at the blueprints and holding the necessary gears, pendulum, hands, and other components.
This was naturally not a problem for Hou Wenjie, whose memory already far surpassed that of ordinary people.
When setting off, Hou Wenjie naturally brought this pendulum clock with him to keep track of time.
The clock was kept by his two servants.
The waiter regarded this clock, which could move on its own, as the most precious treasure in the world!
After traveling for an hour and a half, Hou Wenjie led the Long Snake Clan soldiers to the boundary marker erected by the Deer Horn Clan!
Hou Wenjie looked at the boundary marker and ordered, "Remove the boundary marker. From today onwards, there will be no more Deer Horn Clan!"
The soldiers of the Long Serpent Clan responded loudly, and the three squad leaders of the team took the lead in pushing down the boundary marker!
After the procession had been moving for a while, Hou Wenjie heard a series of strange musical sounds.
The clan chief, Drumstick, looked at Hou Wenjie and said, "Great Shaman, it's the sound of the bone flute from the Deer Horn Clan!"
Hou Wenjie smiled and said, "That's good. Since they've sent a message, they'll definitely gather, which will make it easier for us to strike!"
Drumstick stroked the scar that stretched from his forehead to the corner of his mouth and laughed loudly, "This scar was given to me by the spear of the Deer Horn Clan. Today, I will make him taste the pain I suffered back then!"
After another twenty minutes of marching, Hou Wenjie spotted the Deer Horn Clan's army in the distance!
They stood together noisily, numbering about one or two hundred, some carrying stone axes and spears, others carrying sharpened wooden sticks.
When the two tribes were about twenty meters apart, Hou Wenjie ordered them to stop.
A burly man wearing a deer antler hat and a necklace of animal teeth stepped out from the group of the Face Clan!
This man is none other than Ba Mao, the leader of the Deer Horn Clan!
He had a full beard and a rough laugh: "I never thought that the little Serpent Clan would dare to offend my Deer Horn Clan!"
You are truly courting death! I was just hoping you could live for a few more months, but since that's the case, today I will bury your Long Serpent Clan!
Drumsticks! I'll cut off your head and use it as a wine jug! I'll skin you and use it as a war drum!
I will kill all the elders in your tribe!
Your women will become our women!
Your children will become our children!
And those of you who are alive will become our slaves!
Ha ha ha ha!"
As Ba Mao finished speaking, the soldiers of the Deer Horn Clan burst into laughter and cheered loudly!
Hou Wenjie is not interested in empty talk.
He simply said calmly, "Archers, fire!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his personal attendant, the flag bearer of the team, immediately waved the command flag!
As the command flag was raised, all the archers moved to the front and drew their bows!
In the blink of an eye, the archers had completed two volleys!
The man who had been shouting just moments before now had four arrows stuck in his body. Looking at the arrows embedded in his chest, Ba Mao's eyes were filled with disbelief!
Then he collapsed to the ground!
More than ten members of the Deer Horn Clan also fell dead!
The once boisterous and excited crowd suddenly became like birds with their necks choked, unable to utter a sound, and fear filled the air!
The leader is dead!
More than ten of them died in a single encounter!
This was a massacre!
A devil! A devil! This is a devil from hell!
Seeing the fear written on the faces of their many clansmen, several brave members of the Deer Horn Clan shouted, "Attack!"
But before he could even take a few steps, he was riddled with arrows!
People were even more terrified!
No one can stand this near-massacre!
The members of the Deer Horn Clan began to flee in all directions in a chaotic uproar!
Hou Wenjie gave the order again: "Full-scale attack!"
