Niu Weibang immediately interrupted: "Boy, I have to remind you that more than 3,000 deer captors, plus a deer prince, I have granted two village leaders a surname at once. Now there is not much reward left on your turn."

Tianhao picked up the rag and wiped off the oil on his hands, and said seriously: "Please take the screen and retreat."

This requirement is not an exaggeration.

Niu Weibang looked at the guard standing beside him and nodded slightly: "You guys go down first!"

Without the fourth person present, the national guru Wu Peng became casual. He pushed open the coffee table in front of him, gave up a more spacious space, cut off a small piece of cooked meat with a knife and stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it slowly: "Tell me, what are your plans?"

"The God of Cow is blessed and captured the two princes of the hart clan."

Tianhao said seriously: "I detained them separately and interrogated all the captive 100 heads of the Mudharth tribe and their personal guards. Compared with the eldest prince Lu Qingdong, who inherited the first place, the second prince Lu Qingnan is more popular with the King of Mudharth King Lu Qingyuan. Many people believe that his inheritance will surpass Lu Qingdong and become the next King of Mudharth."

Wu Peng nodded slightly: "This is no secret. We sent back the same information before the spies of the deer clan."

Tian Hao sat calmly, his tone with awe: "Lu Qingnan is a bargaining chip that can be used to exchange more benefits with the hart clan. I focused my interrogation on Lu Qingdong. His mouth was tight, and it was not easy to take out secrets from him."

Wu Peng's expression became solemn: "So... did you kill him?"

"He has no need to continue living." Tianhao put his hands in front of him with his hands folded: "I used some special methods to draw the secret of the deer textile machine from his mouth."

"What did you say?" Wu Peng asked subconsciously.

"Textile machine?" Niu Weibang's eyes were filled with doubt.

Tianhao nodded seriously: "Yes, textile machine."

The cattle tribe and the deer tribe have been adjacent to each other for many years, and they love each other and have the source of each other. The textile technology is actually textile technology. The deer tribe is weak and the cattle tribe is strong. This situation has lasted for thousands of years. All the previous cattle kings wanted to annex the deer tribe by war, but other tribes rejected this situation, especially the tiger tribe and lion tribes, who sent troops to help the deer tribe many times and repelled the attack of the cattle tribe.

For Tianhao, an "ancient man with knowledge", the technology held by the Deer tribe is actually not a secret.

Spinning and weaving are two completely different things.

Taking cotton as an example, the so-called spinning refers to turning cotton from floc to cotton thread.

The so-called weaving is to interweave cotton thread into cloth.

In the history of Chinese textiles, Huang Daopo's status was extremely important. Craftsmen had a low status in that era but could not change the fact that they were highly respected among the common people. The reform of looms promoted efficiency improvement and continued to modern times.

For the cattle tribe, weaving is actually not difficult. After many years of fighting in the Deer tribe, countless villages were destroyed and countless looms were seized. The cattle craftsmen were good at imitating and began mass-producing looms more than 400 years ago. However, the deer tribe constantly improved, from crude to exquisite, and the looms were constantly updated. The quality of the woven cloth became better and better, and the output was steadily increasing.

The secret of spinning rays is concentrated in the hands of several deer city lords headed by Lu Qingyuan. They followed the ancient tribe rules: every year during the harvest season, all villages must transport cotton to the tribe city in their jurisdiction and exchange cotton threads in proportion. In this way, cotton thread production is firmly controlled, and unless the cattle tribe captures large cities of the deer tribe, it is impossible to obtain relevant technology.

The Jenny spinning machine is a landmark product of the British industrial revolution. Although the current technological level of the Cattle Family is far from the steam era, it does not prevent Tianhao from modifying the Jenny spinning machine manually. The existing Cattle Family spinning machine is also man-made, and can only use one spinning spinning at a time, which is the key to restricting the production of cotton.

"I made a ruthless move on Lu Qingdong." When he said these words, a trace of ferociousness suddenly appeared on Tianhao's face: "It's a bit cruel, but it's really effective."

Wu Peng asked calmly: "So you gave all your military achievements to Guangsheng and Jianping?"

"This is what they deserve." Tianhao's expression was as usual.

He never thought that taking all the credits into one's own convenient way to advance and climb upward. Of course, this kind of thing sometimes depends on the situation. In fact, if Yifeng did not do too much in the battle between the four villages, even if he took out half of his elite troops to join the war and restrained his timid wife, Tianhao would fairly distribute the deer prisoners of war.

"So what do you want?" Wu Peng picked up the knife and cut off a piece of barbecue on the plate in front of him. Although he was old, his thin hands were very strong. The three-quarter-cooked barbecue was cut, and most of the bloody red inside was exposed. He slowly chewed the piece of meat, and the hard lines appeared between his jaw and his cheeks during the biting process, which was exclusive to the barbarian's sense of power.

“There are three requests.”

Hearing this sentence, Niu Weibang was stunned.

Wu Peng's hand holding the knife trembled slightly and almost slipped. He simply put the knife down and wiped the gravy and grease at the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, without hiding his surprise: "Three requirements? Okay... Let's talk about it, what are the requirements?"

"I hope the king can give me the power to form a cavalry." Tianhao did not waste time, nor did he suck people's appetite.

The Niu tribe is still martial, and the leaders of each village can freely form troops and build weapons. Cavalry is the most special part of all military groups. Because there is no wild horse herd in the territory of the Niu tribe, there are only two ways to obtain horses: either artificial breeding and mating on the existing basis, or buy from the Tiger tribe on a large scale through trade means.

The barbarians knew the role of cavalry in war. For a long time, the cattle tribe has been looking for large species within the territory that can replace horses. Thousands of years have passed, and this work has made no progress. Too many examples have proved that this idea cannot be done. In desperation, the rulers of the cattle tribe could only find another way out from the aspects of weapons and military formations, and explore a set of combat methods for infantry to deal with cavalry.

The disadvantage of mobility is so obvious that even if you can defeat the Tiger Clan cavalry under positional warfare, the Cattle Clan infantry will also have to pay a huge price. What's worse is that the infantry cannot escape the cavalry no matter what, and even if they win the battlefield, they cannot take advantage of the victory and pursue the enlargement of the results.

Horses are the most controversial import and export goods between the cattle tribe and the tiger tribe. The tiger tribe has a tough attitude: of course there is no problem in buying a horse, but all stallions must be castrated before they can be exported, and the breed is the final decision of the tiger tribe. In general, there are few tall and high-quality war horses, and they will not even become traded by both parties. Only low pack horses can be used for export.

In the history of the barbarians, for a long time, the tiger tribe once lied to sell mules as horses to the cattle tribe. This trade lasted for more than 30 years. The cattle tribe was unfamiliar with horses and did not form a systematic research and breeding process. As many as tens of thousands of mules were considered as war horses for training. It was not until the war broke out between the cattle tribe and the tiger tribe and saw the tall and mighty cavalry of the tiger tribe rushed over on the opposite side that the cattle tribe realized that they were deceived and deceived.

In that battle, a large number of nobles, including the King of Cattle, were killed, and more than 60% of the elite cattle clans were killed. Many personal guards fought to the death, and finally rescued the seriously injured King of Cattle back to Heijiao City. The King of Cattle died within less than half a day. Before his death, he issued a will: control of the cavalry must be in the hands of the royal family, and the cattle clan and the tiger clan will always be a feud and will never die.

Taking the "horses" that Panshi Village bought from Chiti City before as an example, they are actually evolved versions of mules. The horses are precious and the tiger tribesmen firmly control the trade initiative. Even Niu Tong, the lord of Chiti City, had only 500 cavalry under his command.

"Do you want to do business with the tiger people?" Wu Peng frowned deeply. He instinctively opposed this matter: "It won't work. You won't get any advantage."

Tianhao immediately continued the conversation, "This is the second request I made to the king: the right to trade with other tribes."

Niu Weibang's head tilted to the left, playing with his right hand braids that had fallen from his shoulders, and his eyes were deep under his thick eyebrows: "I knew things weren't that simple. Last time I was in Panshi Village, I learned how powerful you are. You are very smart. So many people dream of getting a surname, but you gave up twice in a row just to exchange for something else from me."

"We have been blocked to the north of the mainland." Tianhao's sentence is sonorous and powerful: "The war between tribes has lasted for thousands of years, and it is impossible for them to reach a reconciliation between each other. The armistice is only a superficial phenomenon. Once the peace time of several years, more than ten years, or at most decades of decades, what follows will be a large-scale war that will die."

The energetic Wu Peng's eyes sterned: "Ahao, do you think we will lose?"

"No." Tianhao shook his head: "Even if we can't win on the main battlefield, we can at least maintain the security of our own territory on the existing basis. The bull tribe's territory is mountainous, and the cavalry cannot play an advantage in this terrain. By the same token, the deer tribe is sandwiched between us and the lion tribe and the tiger tribe. The deer tribe is weak, and whether the tiger tribe or the lion tribe can easily annex them. But none of them did this. At most, they were annexing the marginal villages of the Deer tribe in the form of small-scale battles. The practice was actually the same as when we dealt with Mengxiang villages last time."

"They knew very well that if there was no deer clan, they would face us directly. At that time, the battle between them would last forever. For this reason, the deer clan must exist, and the lion clan and the tiger clan will also actively lend a helping hand when the deer clan encounters our attack."

Niu Weibang no longer speaks.

He picked up the wine pot in front of him and filled his cup. There was not much residual wine in the pot, and it was gone after only half a cup was poured out. The wine made from grain was very turbid, without clarification and filtration, and there was no secondary distillation that seemed to be a luxury and wasteful behavior to the barbarians. He raised the liquid to his lips, thought for a while, suppressed the desire to drink in his heart, sighed in slightest, gently placed the cup next to the national guru Wu Peng, and slowly pushed it with his fingers, and sent it over.

"Your method of building a city is very special. Panshi Village is the most wonderful village I have ever seen." Niu Weibang took an empty cup from the side, poured a full cup of water, and drank the water with indescribable regret. He slapped the earthen tea cup to the ground: "This time you beat the deer people, but it does not mean that the same method can be used on the tiger people. And... it may not necessarily win."

He did not say it clearly, but Tianhao could feel the deep worries and fears of the Leiniu Tribe Chief. It was not because of himself, but from other powerful barbarian tribes in the south.

"I am a member of the Niu tribe, and I am also the leader of a village. Sitting in this position cannot just enjoy power. I have to let the people below eat, let them wear warm clothes, and let them live longer...happiness...and happiness."

The dull sound echoed in the room, and as the temperature of the charcoal gradually increased, it penetrated into Wu Peng and Niu Weibang's ears and penetrated into their brains.

During this period, Wu Peng met with many village leaders in the Leiniu tribe territory. They were very excited and fanatical. They worshiped and respected more because of their own identity and the spokesperson of the gods. There were very few leaders who truly knew how to manage, and they did not understand the importance of governing the territory and increasing the population. The eyes full of enthusiasm, flattery, excitement, nervousness, and fear reflected the colorful colors of the world, covering all things that covered utilitarianism.

Wu Peng was very disappointed. He did not see even a little obsession with responsibility, but only his desire for surnames and higher identities.

The loyalty of these people is no problem. The key is that they are not the people Wu Peng wants.

A group of stupid idiots who can only execute commands but are unresponsive.

This is the definition Wu Peng gave them.

What's the use of paying so much food every year? Not leaving enough food to store food for the winter in your village, and a large number of people die by then, will be a loss for the entire cattle clan.

As a superior, you cannot denounce it in person or even refuse such behavior. Doing so will make the people below confused and think that something is wrong and that the rulers are furious.

The current cow tribe is a pool of stagnant water, and all the fish sink to the bottom of the pool due to lack of oxygen, so they don’t even dare to get out of the atmosphere.

"I promised the two requests you just made." Wu Peng lowered his head and looked at the half glass of wine handed over by Niu Weibang: "But I have to add a condition that no matter what method or channel you use, you must hand over half of the war horses from the Tiger people, and you must deliver them to Leijiao City."

Tianhao chewed the meaning of this sentence silently. After a long time, he raised his head and his eyes were full of inquiries: "Does it have to be Leijiao City? Chiti City is closer to Panshi Village."

"This is a prerequisite, no negotiation is required." Wu Peng shook his head, his attitude was very tough.

Tianhao nodded: "I will follow the orders of the great national master."
