Chapter 317 Brown Bear Warrior and Incident
In the beginning.
Because of being squeezed by Cyrus, the colonists of the Sac Empire who also came to the northern part of the new continent to take root and befriend the Iroquois among the natives. Based on various contradictions, they often team up to attack the tulips. Colony, causing extremely heavy losses.
At that time, the number of pioneers who came here from the Tulip native land was too small, and even if they had sharper weapons, they had suffered a few big losses.
Later, they simply followed suit and began to try to befriend some of the Hurons who were opposed to the Iroquois.
Not only forged a pact but also armed them with more advanced weapons, supporting them in their revenge against the Iroquois and the colonies of the Sark Empire that had befriended the Iroquois.
These weapons include steel daggers, battle axes, swords and most importantly muskets!
At the same time, they began to conquer some of the surrounding small tribes that also did not deal with the Hurons, and absorbed them into the colony’s system, mostly used as the bottom labor force.
Like the Southern Continent Anuma chiefs who bought and sold their compatriots during the war, the seasoned trailblazers knew it well.
In the past hundred years of pioneering history, the colonists and the natives gradually formed a delicate balance in this forward, backward, confrontational and cooperative process.
Even because of this seemingly peaceful policy of absorption and fusion, a large number of mixed-race Mastizos were born.
But from Alwin’s forward-looking experience, this balance will be broken sooner or later with the continuous influx of local personnel and the widening of the power gap.
The estrangement of race, belief, concept, language and position will eventually push the two sides to opposite sides, just like Shiliu who, after landing in the new continent, directly implements the policy of extermination and massacre. the same.
Until the land has only one master left.
However, the future will be discussed later.
The current situation does not prevent the pioneers from making money.
The current colonial economy is mainly divided into three parts, the plantations represented by Caginia mainly grow tobacco, rice and indigo (natural dyes, which are used in the Navy’s dark blue uniforms). Dye);
The shipping and shipbuilding industry represented by the far sail collar and Fordmont; the fur trade represented by the central colony East Lunch.
Among them, the most important pillar industry is all kinds of furs with high local prices and strong demand! It is also the most valuable substitute found by latecomers after missing the gold and silver of Cyrus!
It is said that the early colonists could exchange ten muskets and corresponding ammunition for a large piece of land from the local chief or tribal chief.
Although several decades later, the natives who have seen the world have learned it well and refuse to do this kind of loss-making business, but the fur in exchange for “trade rifles” is enough to make furs. Merchants return home to make a fortune!
Alwin would have wanted to do the same if he hadn’t been able to go back in a short time.
It is very easy to earn a thousand or so Golden Lion for a round trip.
da da da
They rode their horses all the way, from the smooth street built by the colonists at the beginning, to the wild dirt road, and then to the trail that the hunters came out of.
But after all, it is not too deep into the uninhabited place. Although there are some difficulties, it can still allow the carriage to pass.
After starting in the afternoon and walking for nearly two hours, they finally arrived at their destination by a clear river.
This is a tribe of the Hurons, called the Yucatan tribe. The longhouses built with bark, branches and leaves look far rougher than the colonial wooden houses. many.
According to the number of houses, it is estimated that there are about 300 to 400 people in this branch. However, according to Necardo, this is only a small part of the Yucatan tribe.
Constrained by environmental carrying capacity, there are thousands of troops scattered further inland.
Most of the furs captured by the entire Yucatan tribe are concentrated here, trading with the settlers through this semi-settlement.
Of course, there are various forms of trade. It is said that dozens of border warehouses have been established in the interior of the Sark Empire.
Specially serve the bravest hunters among the Atrians, the “Mountains”, who have been alone in the wilderness for several months, holding the most cherished furs in their hands.
Beep——
Seeing the arrival of the convoy from a distance, a sentry on the outskirts of the tribe was already blowing their horns.
In an instant, a group of sturdy men with dark brown skin and animal fur and flamboyant fabrics rushed out of the houses.
Some people are holding bows and arrows, lances, and more people are holding cold muskets!
If it weren’t for the appearance and clothes, people would think that they came to some immigrant settlement.
Alwin noticed in particular that even a multi-purpose shawl called “Reboso” on most of them was already a local industrial fabric.
The most important thing is to fully consider the needs of customers, and the patterns above belong to the indigenous style. Cotton textiles for fur, this business is doing well!
“Hahaha, my friends, you are welcome!”
Seeing the head of the inconspicuous director, wearing a magnificent feather crown, gold and Bone Ornament The lean tribal leader waved his clansman back.
Leaving only a dark-skinned, tall and muscular aboriginal warrior like Gary.
He walked out of the gate of the camp, and welcomed the guests with a big smile in fluent Alliance.
“Leader Apsova, it’s a pleasure to see you!”
Necardo dismounted and hugged each other cordially.
The next step is easy.
We have been in contact for many years and have dealt with each other many times, and the two parties have long been familiar with each other.
The employees from the East Lunch Company and the natives in the tribe who were in charge of the transaction, counted the goods on both sides, inspected, registered, unloaded, and loaded.
Alwin and the others didn’t need to do any of these things. They took Milan and Gary behind the director and walked into the longhouse that belonged to the tribal chief and was located in the very center.
“My friend, it’s not easy to see you in person once, how long has it been since you last came to trade in person?”
“hahaha , fat, fat, it’s not easy to come out.”
“I really envy you people of the Pharretis tribe, don’t worry about survival. In our tribe, except for sacrifices, even a chief Nor can I enjoy the offerings of other clansman with peace of mind.”
“”
Sitting on a mat made of a whole large bison hide, listening to Necardo and the opposing chief Chatting, Alwin instead focused on the strong warrior sitting next to the leader.
More precisely, the Totem tattoo on the other party’s body, although the lines are simple, but lifelike.
Although the animals tattooed on the body are different from those depicted on the “Eagle Warrior Training Method”, the flavor is obviously of common origins.
This is obviously another “Totem Warrior” inheritance other than “Eagle Warrior”!
“It’s the right trip, they really have similar extraordinary inheritance.”
Alwin was secretly happy, and was thinking about how to speak.
Gaze—!
The strong native warrior obviously has extraordinary keen senses, or it may be that Alwin’s movements are too obvious, and he soon finds this strange white-skinned youngster looking at him.
Looking towards Alwin, though small, he was born with the oppression of some kind of powerful predator.
The Totem of the brown bear on his body also moved with his muscles, as if he was about to come alive.
If an ordinary person is here, maybe he will be scared to keep quiet out of fear by this look, and maybe the timid scared witless will run away.
Alwin hasn’t responded yet. Judging from the strength of his life force field, no matter how strong it is, it is only comparable to the official Knight. Even if three or five are tied together, it is not enough for the current self to fight alone.
On the other hand, Gary next to Alwin saw the rude “fierce” look in the other’s eyes, and with this violent temper, he instantly glared back at him.
The two who were chatting soon noticed a subtle change in the atmosphere around them.
“Uwa Kaza!”
After interrupting the gaze of the “brown bear warrior” beside him with the guests, Apsova noticed that Nerkado was coming with him. Several new faces, and their unusualness.
In particular, Gary, whose size is similar to his strongest warrior, follows the very simple concept of “big is strong” among the indigenous people. p> “My friends, who are these?”
“Oh, I forgot to introduce you. This is Captain Alwin, a naval officer from the Kingdom of Phalatis, and the two next to me are Officers on Captain Alwin’s ship.
They have just arrived in the new continent and want to meet some Aboriginal friends. I heard about your hospitality and came to visit with me.”
Although it is only a civilian official, it does not mean that Necardo is ignorant of transcender affairs.
As he said, he winked at Alwin, indicating that although the opponent’s equipment was backward, the warriors under his command were extremely powerful, so it was best not to make any misunderstandings.
Alwin, while intrigued by their “Totem Warrior” inheritance, isn’t ready to snatch it either.
Since the inheritance of each tribe is not the same, it should be possible to find a way to trade the inheritance of their rival tribes.
After all, before the colonists arrived, their civil war had been going on for countless years, and this thing should not be absent. Maybe it’s a good deal, and it’s very possible to get several copies at a time.
“Leader Apsova, I’m sorry.
This is our first time in the new continent, and we haven’t seen a warrior as powerful as this gentleman, so we can’t help but read more. I took a few glances.
It’s the first time we met, please accept a small gift!”
Alwin handed the other party a beautiful long box, and wanted to take it It must be given first, and he still understands the truth. Gifts are sent out, and it is natural to talk later.
I didn’t realize that the youngster had been eyeing the leader of his inheritance, and his face gradually softened when he saw the gift handed over by the other party.
Without the politeness and restraint of a civilized person, he opened the box directly in person.
Slap–
At the same time, I heard the youngster say softly;
“Not a normal standard musket at the same time, this Hawken The rifle is 0.81 meters long, weighs 4kg, and has a caliber of .54. It can repel a grizzly bear with one shot! It is a rare product among flintlock muskets.”
The leader gently stroked the bright walnut of this musket. Wooden wooden holder, brass snake pattern decoration on the left side of the gun body, shiny barrel. Even if you haven’t fired a shot, just judging from the appearance, you know that this is a good spear!
Gently close the lid and keep it cautiously by your side.
The face of the middle-aged leader was already full of smiles. From the moment he decided to trade with these distant visitors, wasn’t it for a better life? The days when weapons, iron pots, and fabrics are changing with each passing day always make people feel good.
“We Yucatans are very direct.
I have never seen this musket, but that doesn’t stop me from estimating its value.
youngster, please tell me if you have any requests, we will not be stingy in return.”
“hahaha, Apsova chief, indeed”
bang——
The wooden door was slammed open, interrupting Alwin’s words.
“Chief! The hunting party is back, something happened!”
