From Chief to Ball

"The child has always followed his mother. It would be good to let the child know your man's last name. Do you want to put it first?"

"We can hoe, we can chop wood, we can fight wars, can you?"

"We used to pick fruits. Before Jian made bows and arrows, how much prey could you hunt? You couldn't catch a deer for several days. Without our fruits, you men would have starved to death long ago!"

"Now we don't need to eat fruit! Wheat beans are enough to eat. We can dig hundreds of steps a day. How much can you dig?"

"Go and spin some thread! After spinning for a while, you can't sit still like your ass has been bitten by a snake..."

The more and more noise made the two chiefs and Chen Jian restless, and they kept yelling at the men and women who were talking more and more outrageously.

The power of inertia is huge, and at the end of the tear, the female is still the first and the male is the last.

The women are proud, and the men are also very satisfied, at least they have children, and their status is not only uncle.

Chen Jian looked at those complacent women, and said in his heart: "Let you be happy for a few years first, when the clansmen get used to settlement and agriculture, when some people think about getting married and living apart, when the men can support the life of the family , you will lose...and the next time you are eligible to tear it apart, it will not be until after industrialization and world war."

Chapter 25 Military and Political

The result of this war between men and women can be said to be unexpected and reasonable.

The three men of cousin Lancao are also natural, because those three men are not only Lancao's spouse.Men say that women sleep with other people, and I will not sleep with you; women dare to say that they will not sleep now, and you and I are not in the same tribe, nor are you raising me. The children are raised by the tribe.

Whether it is the spouse relationship or social status, as a whole, it is basically the embodiment of economic status and labor. In agricultural society, women are alienated from human beings to mateable and fertile things, and they can only liberate themselves by working with their hands in industrial society. .

In addition, relying on conscience, preaching, morality, and even religion to improve women's status is groundless.

A few days after this fight, there was another autumn rain. In order to prove that he also does that kind of highly repetitive work, the men also squatted in the room with the women and weaved twine fishing nets with pottery shuttles. Some also imitated women to spin the spinning wheel. of.

Chen Jian found an excuse and called all the corporals in the queue to another room to avoid this labor.

When the elected corporal leaders heard the news, they happily threw away Tao Suo, and ran to the next room, attracting laughter and curses from the women.

There were too many problems exposed in the last battle, so Chen Jian wanted to sum up the experience with these people and let them know why they fought so much in line.

The current army, plus people from other tribes, is nearly two hundred.The largest combat unit is Wu, nearly forty Wu, he can't command at all, and some middle-level officers must be selected.

The formation of the army is easy to say, just take the method from the Shang and Zhou dynasties and use it.The establishment of military division brigades is not unique to modern times. During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, there were 1 people in the army, one army had five divisions, one division had five brigades, five men formed an army, and five Wu formed two.

In this era in the previous life, those who really know how to fight would hide how to fight, because the more people know, the more unfavorable it is for the inheritance of military nobles of blood. Tucked away, besides, he didn't know much.

Now there are only two soldiers, but they can still explain how to fight a war with hundreds of people.If there is more, he can't command now, he can only rely on experience to accumulate and constantly summarize.

More than 40 people crowded into a room without the slightest military bearing, chatting nonsense, Chen Jian knocked on the wall to make everyone quiet for a while.

A lot of stickmen were drawn on the wall with charcoal, which was probably the style of the last war. Those who participated in that battle quickly recognized them.

After finishing the painting, Chen Jian pointed to the wall and said, "War is to make us die less and let others die more. Tell me, what can we do to make us die less in the last war?"

The people below glanced at each other, but they didn't know what to say. After waiting for a long time, when Chen Jian was about to be disappointed, his cousin Acorn finally spoke.

"Jian, after the fight last time, I was thinking. We were by the river, and there was a person rushing to the front of our team. After killing that person, if we approached you, we would be surrounded from behind. They should be able to."

As soon as he finished speaking, the three corporal leaders on the far left all nodded in agreement, and Chen Jian said, "That's right, then why didn't you move at that time?"

"You didn't beat the drums, and no one told me, and I don't know what to do. Besides, if we walk in a line, the battle will be over, but if we separate, it will be one-on-one. It's..."

Acorn scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed. If he had brought people there, maybe seventeen of his people would not have died.

Chen Jian said: "The team still needs to line up. If you form a small team, how many can you beat each other?"

"If there is only one team, we can fight four or five. If we are close to the river, or there are other teams on both sides to help us block the side, we can fight ten or twenty. Anyway, ten people can't all pile up in front of us, right in front of us. There are only four or five people."

Acorn raised his head, and the rest of the people also became active, accusing the teams on the right wing of going too fast, exposing the right side of their team, like a wild boar showing its soft buttocks.

The uncle said with a bitter face: "At that time, when people from other tribes charged, my pace was faster. I didn't expect this at the time."

Matsuya said: "We were also to blame at the time, if our 30 people saw them rushing over, we would keep a distance from you first, and rush over when they stick with you, and those people would not be killed. What we practice is how to hit people, and we may not be able to beat a small team in a chaotic fight."

After hearing this, Chen Jian was still very satisfied. At least the two of them had used their brains on the battlefield, and afterward thought about what they would have done if there was regret medicine.Although it is still ignorant, at least it has a prototype.

He tried to ask: "Why do you say I insisted that you rush when you have reached thirty paces?"

Before Song could speak, the civet cat had already shouted: "That's not easy. I'm wearing those willow sticks, and I won't be able to charge any farther. Besides, I run so fast. If I charge every [-] steps, I won't be able to wait for me." When rushing in front of the enemy, Song may still be twenty steps away. After they stab me to death, wait for Song to rush over and then stab him to death. But if we are close and then rush, we all rush at the same time, it is impossible for several people to appear. Personally deal with me alone."

A few members of the Spear Squad also nodded. They saw with their own eyes the last time the enemy rushed over in a panic. The fast-running enemies wanted to deal with the entire squad, but they were easily killed.

If the enemies were lined up at the beginning, each team had to deal with five or six people at the same time, which would be troublesome.

The civet cat thought for a while and then said: "There is another reason. If the enemy is motionless and waits for us to charge forward, after we charge thirty steps away, your slow-moving squad can also follow. Thirty of us beat hundreds of them, you are anxious in the back, when we move to the front, we are all dead..."

Chen Jian clapped his hands and said, "That's good, what else do you want to say?"

These people shook their heads and couldn't think of anything for a while. In fact, Chen Jian wanted to say a lot, but he hadn't really experienced a similar battle. Even if he said it, these people might not understand it.

Seeing that everyone was silent, they seemed to be pondering over the three words that civet cat said just now, which was really a true portrayal of the feelings of some people in that battle that day.

Chen Jian knocked on the wall and said: "We will continue to fight in the future, and there will be more and more people. Let's select a few more people. Five teams count as one or two, and I will choose a person to take care of it. I will take care of it myself." One or two, you choose the rest."

There was almost no suspense, and Acorn and Tanuki were the ones who talked the most.

After the selection, Chen Jian glanced at the wolf skin who had been silent all this time, and said to himself that he is usually so cheerful, what happened today?

"Brother, why don't you say a word?"

Wolfpi spread his hands and said, "I can shoot whatever you want. Anyway, we hide behind and shoot arrows. When I make a bow that can shoot a hundred paces and kill people, I will ride a horned deer and take advantage of it." When they eat and sleep, they shoot and run away, and they can't catch up anyway."

Everyone laughed, and Chen Jian also laughed and told everyone to disperse, and went back to continue weaving fishing nets.

A few days later, the leaders of the ten tribes came to the village with a certain number of men as agreed at the beginning, carrying the food they needed for the past few days.

Chen Jian broke up these newcomers and assigned them to the original team, and the team leaders were all from his two clans.

It doesn't take a big battle to punish the tribes that betrayed the oath, it's a political issue, not a military one.

The two tribes that were rescued also elected their own leaders, and finally a council of 15 people was assembled, discussing how to punish those tribes in the room.

Chen Jian didn't wait for these people to discuss this time, and directly expressed his opinion.

Move those tribes out of the mountains and arrange them in the lower reaches of the Caohe River.The purpose of arranging downstream is that in case of any problems, the army can go down by boat, which is convenient for control.

These tribes who moved out had to learn how to grow wheat and beans and raise them. Every ten catties of grain they harvested every year had to hand over one catty as the common property of the fifteen tribes.

In addition, they also need to hand in varying amounts of fish, firewood, hemp thread, sheep, deer, etc. every year as the price for their betrayal of their ancestors.

The amount of payment is not too much, and it will not arouse their fierce resistance. Compared with the life in the mountains, it is better. This is all because of his careful planning.

The leaders of those tribes are not eligible to join the council, and they don't even have the right to make opinions. They can only manage their own tribe.
