Chapter 345: Peach Blossom Spring

Chen Mu believes that their discovery of this new mineral comes entirely from coincidence.

This kind of mineral should also exist in the Ming Dynasty, because according to the characteristics of steelmaking, he felt that this thing might be the manganese mentioned in the past.

Who doesn’t know about manganese steel?

But if this thing is added less in steel, it will turn cooked iron into pig iron?

This made him not sure.

Besides, even if it is confirmed, it is useless. This thing may not be called Manganese in this life, maybe it will be called Lu?

In the days that followed, King Lu simply moved into the metallurgy department of the royal university... Anyway, the royal university was full of his own family, so I felt that I was not at all in a few days.

In conscience, Lu Wang treated him better in the royal family university than in the Forbidden City.

Although in the Forbidden City, King Lu is the treasure of the whole world, and everyone knows that he is favored by all the people, but he is always with Wanli and is quite bullied.

The emperor always asked the King of Lu to refuse to eat it, but the King of Lu didn't want it. The King of Lu watched others eat fruits, and the King of Lu watched others drink drinks.

When he arrived at the royal university in Asia, he gave Lu Wang the enjoyment he had never had in the Forbidden City.

All the royal families in college were older than him, and those with higher seniority were not as high as him.

Everyone had to coax him, it was so good that they were in the Forbidden City.

Besides, Lu Wang knew a lot of things, including military, ships, especially machinery, and it was not in vain to do mechanical repairs with Wanli. After a few days at the royal university, he made a set of design drawings to Changsheng, customized the latest smelting tools, and repaired two track manpower cars placed in the royal university.

Mo County is singing and dancing, but a war is taking place near Makino in the northeast.

Yang Zhaolong, the magistrate of Makino, finally ended the years when his son reigned, wearing a strong armor and holding a sword of war, driving a long car to protect the country and the people.

In fact, it is not considered as protecting the country and safeguarding the people, and it is basically a bully.

Sui Muye Prefecture established a capital, developed the Long Beach and the Great Lakes mining area, and used rails to connect the vast land in northeastern Asia. Makino's jurisdiction entered a stage of rapid expansion.

Yang Zhaolong's ability to govern locally is equivalent to none. The government's binding force on the Longhouse Alliance is basically reflected in tariffs and tobacco taxes. In addition, the Longhouse Alliance can exercise its own laws, and members of the tribes of the alliance also have considerable autonomy.

There are countless tribes in North Asia, which are vast and sparsely populated. The rapid expansion of the Longhouse Alliance activity area will inevitably squeeze the living space of other tribes, and even force tribes that were originally hostile to fight for land to unite in order to fight against the stronger Longhouse.

For example, the Ao people and the Su people in the west of the Makino mining area are the first two major tribes to feel the threat.

Since the year before yesterday, men who drove boats in their tribes hunting or gathering in rivers, lakes, swamps and hunting often disappeared suddenly. The hunting activities that usually ended in one or two days have not returned for a long time. When they are found, they can only see the wooden boats left on the shore, and the things on them are cleaned.

At first, no one cared about it, just thought that these people had discovered something, mainly because there were no traces of fighting near the boat. At the same time, because it was discovered late, the footprints and other traces on the ground disappeared without a trace.

But later this situation happened more and more frequently, and people often disappeared suddenly, and even more than a dozen hunting teams disappeared, and sometimes they left traces of fighting at the scene.

Later, there was news that the plunderers fled back. According to their testimony, it was proved that in the lake area east of the two tribes, women from other tribes often plundered men from the wild and caught mines in the east.

Catch the east side for nothing but sleep.

The mines are all women.

Then the Sus and the O'Neans decided to retaliate against the eastern mines and regain the stolen troops. A force armed by hunters and guards quickly assembled, sweeping away the longhouse strongholds and fields along the way, and capturing a newly developed mine on the east bank of the Mississippi River.

The entire war machine started to move.

It was not Yang Zhaolong, but it was Yang Zhaolong's turn to appear. It was Muye and other strong and wealthy women who left the mines being dug, put on the armor of Wanlitong, and rushed towards the tribes of the Sioux and Ao people with railroad steel knives and explosives.

They had no tactics or organization, but were full of anger. They rolled the gunpowder for mining with uncut thick cigarette paper. They threw it into the dome hut of the enemy tribe at night, exploded, set fire, and then chopped and killed. The prisoners were frightened by the people who fled the house.

Like a wild beast that jumped out of the Great Lakes.

When Yang Zhaolong learned that all this had happened, the two tribes who were sucking in the air had launched all the unprecedented mobilizations and had completely given up production, just for the war that never ended.

This war was not chosen by them, but the decision of the women of the Longhouse Alliance.

For the Longhouse Alliance, no matter whether a man or a woman dies, a silence war must be launched to take a prisoner from the other side to adopt the dead person. The more people they die, the larger the scale of the silence war.

However, even Yang Zhaolong, a magistrate who was born as a chieftain, could not understand the reason for the war.

You are so full that you rob other people's tribes, and you are beaten back and die, and you still have to start a big war?

But the alliance has been passed unanimously. Regardless of whether it is Iroquois or the Hurons, more than a dozen tribes, men, women, young and old, are mobilizing, and all the food and weapons needed to launch the war are ready. As advanced scouts, they have also entered the Great Lakes for pre-war reconnaissance.

Every day, a large number of tribal leaders occupied the land of the magistrate's nest and entered his magistrate's office. Regardless of whether he was there or not, they directly discussed tactics in the magistrate's lobby.

He was a man riding on the tiger's back, with an arrow on the string. Even if Makino's Ming army did not go out, the Longhouse Alliance would be full of its nest.

It's nothing more than the lack of firearms and lack of cavalry troops.

In fact, there is no shortage of cavalry. The Mongolian natives of Hulan Guard have already fought on war horses and horn bows.

There are indeed people in this war because of hatred or the habit of silence in the war, but more tribal leaders are willing to participate in the war in fact for the sake of profit.

They are not used to peace and live long under the conditions of peace in Makino, which makes these people who have been fighting all their lives feel uncomfortable and they need war.

Especially after they had better weapons and better armor, they were eager to start a war on the surrounding areas.

Teams of Miao Luoquo warriors sat on horse-drawn carts carrying ore transported through the tracks, arrived at the Great Lakes area and regrouped and drove towards the West.

The magistrate Yang Zhaolong had no other way, and led his troops to follow the way west. He could try to send envoys to two hostile tribes and persuade them to join the Ming Dynasty. If they join the Ming Dynasty, they could avoid war.

But now that's it, no one wants to win a title before a big fight.
