From Chief to Ball

It's like a kindergarten teacher catching children, arranging them one by one.There are ten people in a row, a total of three rows, one and a half steps apart.

After queuing up, the clansmen were still moving around inside. Chen Jian shouted: "Stop talking! Don't move! Otherwise, you will have to carry stones in a while!"

Finally calmed down a little, Chen Jian walked to Song's side and said, "From now on, you will be in charge. Some people talk nonsense, some people move around, just grab them out and carry stones."

"What's the use of that?"

"You will know in the future. Every night, as long as it doesn't rain, you have to stand for a while. Whenever I call out, you can immediately form the same three rows as now, so you don't need to practice. I hope that you will stand before you finish building the house." , able to remember how to stand."

Song looked back, thought it was very simple, and said, "It doesn't take that long, one day is enough."

Chen Jian shook his head with a broken smile and said, "Then try it."

He didn't want these people to stand in a military posture, but simply lined up, which would be of great use when charging in the future.

Song thought the problem was too simple. After the crowd dispersed, even though the rope was still there, the group of people struggled for nearly 10 minutes before they stood up again, and it was uneven.

Many people forgot where they were standing before, and the vanguard didn't know where to stand in advance and moved around.

Song was completely convinced this time, and asked a little embarrassedly: "Jian, should we just stand like this? When will we practice how to rush like you?"

"Wait until you can stand up with a yell before you can practice. Let's practice first. Don't think about things too simply, and don't be in a hurry."

He patted Song on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement, and before leaving, he said: "Song, with my method, fewer people will be killed in a real fight. So carrying stones is not to punish them, but to save their lives, and what you want to try Herbal medicine is the same."

Song nodded, returned to the team, let everyone disperse, and stood up again, but unfortunately it was still the same as before, a mess.

Chen Jian watched for a long time, and the more than 50 people who were chaotic over there were also divided into ten teams, with five people in one team, and he also selected someone he trusted as the leader of the five-member team.

Chen Jian wrote down the names of these ten people, and these people were already a little impatient. From their point of view, fighting was like rushing up with stone axes and spears. Why is it so troublesome?

I thought they would be able to get the stone spear and stone ax after they were divided into teams, but unfortunately they still didn't have it, but they just learned another word called corporal leader, which is used to refer to the leader of their team.

Just find someone in a team of five, three people in front, and two people behind one step.

There are fewer people this time, and it is much easier to have three people in a row than ten people in a row.

"What you have to do today is to line up in groups of five like this. If you can arrange well at any time, go back to sleep. If you can't arrange well, continue to practice here. Tomorrow, the house will be built. Go build with clay tablets, then take your time."

After saying this, he tirelessly checked each team.The smaller the number, the easier it is, so after practicing for a while, these people can basically guarantee that five people will form that formation, and they all go back to sleep.

Langpi and the others had already finished shooting arrows. They looked at the 30 people who were still queuing up for practice, pointing and pointing, and were driven back by Chen Jian.

Song was already a little impatient, Chen Jian looked at the sky and it was getting late, let them break up first, there is still work tomorrow.

The people of the tribe rushed back to the village as if they had received an amnesty.Chen Jian held the charcoal and bark, thinking about the future by the moonlight outside.

The monsters of war will soon be released from their cages with the development of primitive agriculture. Before the popularization of metal farm tools and ox carts, the most efficient production relationship is slavery, and the source of slaves depends on the plunder of the army.

The form of organization based on the village commune will last for a long time, and tribesmen are needed to fight wars, so tribesmen have the right to speak politically for a long time.He must ensure continuous victories and plunder more people for the clansmen who will become slave owners in the future in order to maintain his position as the military leader.

Under the conditions of slash-and-burn farming, a large amount of labor is necessary to ensure the production of the land. Just like in medieval Europe, it is normal to plant one and reap three.Unstoppable natural disasters, village water facilities, land reclamation, ore mining, etc. all require a large slave population.

Chen Jian thinks that he is not the kind of smart person who can be invincible as soon as he has a kit, so if he wants to continue to win, he can only rely on the crushing of the military system.

For the more than 50 people, he prepared a group of five, equipped with long and short spears.The enemy at this time must have no cavalry, so there is no need for a dense phalanx. Use a team of five to hold down the formation, and slowly move forward by beating drums for ten steps to approach the enemy.

Fifteen archers are the main output combat power, and the spearmen squad is used as a mobile city wall to cover them and shoot more arrows, as close as possible to the enemy to a distance of three to forty meters.

The archers are in the center, flanked by squadrons of spearmen.Once the enemy charged, the archers retreated behind the spearmen for cover after firing two rounds of arrows.If the enemy does not rush, approach slowly, and the archers attack the enemy to cause damage.

Once they are about 40 meters away from the opponent, the 30 shock infantry will line up in three rows and rush towards the enemy.

The formation was torn apart, and the spearmen at the back kept up. They fought in groups of five and cooperated with each other to completely break through the opponent's line and divide the opponent.

As long as the front line is shaken, the subsequent battles will be unilateral massacres, and the unorganized army will be just a mess.

The principle is a bit like the phalanx of the arquebus era, but because there is no need to consider cavalry impact, the formation is more scattered, and because the opponent cannot wear heavy armor, bows and arrows can replace muskets as the main output, and there is no need to worry about not being able to break armor.

In the future, if the horses are domesticated, chariots can be used to carry out the impact. At that time, the impact infantry can be placed on both sides of the front to cover the flanks or charge when the opponent's front is shaken.

There is no formation that remains unchanged from ancient times. After the enemy also tames the horses, one's own formation will naturally become tighter to prevent the cavalry from attacking.After the emergence of heavy armor, this formation with bows and arrows as the main lethal force will also dissipate, and finally it will only recover after the appearance of muskets that can penetrate plate armor.

And now the tribe we have to deal with is only one hundred and ten people, even if they know how to use bows and arrows, archers who have not even made a bow with recurved horns, playing with the scattering of arrows raining from a hundred meters away is no different from tickling .If the other party escapes and does not confront you head-on, the monks can't escape the temple if they run away, destroy their homes and capture women and children, and the rest of them can go to play survival in the wilderness.

Besides, with the development of bronze ware, the pressure to make bronze cannons with the technology of making Simuwu Dafang Ding is not too great, as long as there is ideas and gunpowder.

After a hundred years, when my own people can make tripods, they can produce nine bronze cannons, which can be read as Jiuding.

Bronze cannons have great advantages. Until the Civil War era, there were still a large number of bronze cannons, and because of the metal properties of bronze, they would not explode suddenly, and they could be recast without waste if they were cast.

The musket is more difficult, and he probably won't see it appear in this life, but it is still very exciting to imagine the war in the Bronze Age in his imagination.

The cavalry rushed close to the opponent, forcing the opponent to form a square formation.Bronze cannon seized the opportunity to bombard the dense phalanx. After the light cavalry drove away the opponent's cavalry, the black powder grenadiers charged and threw and tore apart the front line.

At that time, because of the problems of control and communication capabilities, the countries will be enfeoffed to occupy those places that are still wild, and they will first establish a foothold since ancient times.

Ritual utensils read as tripods are actually cannons. The number of cannons that Gonghou Bozinan can have is etiquette; the loud roar of gunpowder is music.

Hundreds of years later, with the development of productive forces, the old production relations are no longer suitable for the development of productive forces. Controversy among a hundred schools of thought, disputes among nations, and one after another cast cannons to aspire to the top. This is the collapse of the ceremony...

"Four, five hundred years is enough."

He fantasized about all kinds of scenes, with a silly smile on his face, until Yu Qianer came out and put a fur on him.

"Still sleeping? Tomorrow we have to move mud to build a house."

Chen Jian let out a groan, the huge contrast between reality and fantasy left him speechless, got up and went back to the house speechlessly.

Chapter 33 Coordination

Working for others is always tiring, but working for yourself is much more positive.In this era, the concept of self includes all the people of the tribe, and has not yet been alienated into a single individual as a unit.

Especially at night, it was too crowded to sleep, and the clansmen wanted to have more rooms, so they woke up Chen Jian early.

There is no need to spend so much time building the house this time, so Chen Jian needs to plan, and can't spend all his time on building the house.

The apricots are turning yellow and the peaches are turning red. These things need to be collected. Some herbs should also be dug up. The seeds of many plants are about to mature.

The most important thing is that the daylilies and lilies in the wild are already in full bloom. After this year, it will take next year to collect enough lily flowers, so his plan will be postponed for another year.

All this work must be planned in advance, the house is still built using the block method, of course methods such as burning bricks must be used, but it is not used in the place of residence.

He wants to use bricks to build some ceremonial buildings, which are different from the house he lives in, and subtly influence the tribe from the visual sense.

He plans to use burnt bricks to build things such as sacrifices, schools, and honor rooms, so that the people of the tribe will preconsciously think that these things are more important than life, and they can also enhance the cultural atmosphere.

For those ethnic groups outside who do not have their own cultural awareness, the effect of cultural aggression is far better than military conquest.
