507 Confessions

The Dakota Prairie is the territory of the Sioux Dakota Tribal Alliance and the closest prairie to the Xinyin Capital.

There are endless grasslands, high and low mountains and forests, and herds of bison moving slowly like black clouds. The scenery is so magnificent that it can be said to be far beyond the grasslands of Duke Wenguo’s Mansion.

However, Taichang has no intention of enjoying the scenery here at this moment.

Because he is too tired.

Along the way, he led tens of thousands of Shenwu Camp cavalry to travel for more than two thousand miles and nearly ten days.

There is no way, this continent is too big, and the territory of the Su people is also very large.

The territory of the Dakota Tribal Alliance is within a range of 500 to 2000 miles from the New Yin Capital, and the other two tribal alliance territories are four or five thousand miles away from the New Yin Capital.

There are no planes at this moment, and there are no trains on the American continent. The quickest way to take the land is to ride a horse. In order to make it easier for all Sioux tribe chiefs to gather, he could only choose the gathering location on the Dakota Prairie.

Fortunately, the Sioux tribes have war horses now, otherwise, the chiefs who wanted to gather together all the Sioux tribes would have to wait three or four months.

It has been more than ten days since this has passed, and I don’t know how many chiefs of the Sioux tribe have gathered.

Taichang looked at the endless grass in front of him, his face full of contemplation.

The reason why he helped Indian tribes form a vassal state in the form of tribal alliance was mainly to gather the young and strong tribes and practice hard to let them deal with the colonists who invaded this continent.

The problem is that the Indian tribes are too divided, even the closest tribes are dozens of miles away.

In this case, it will be more troublesome to gather the young and strong tribes of each tribe.

He could not match every young and strong man with a war horse. Most young and strong man had to walk on his feet to reach the assembly site.

It’s always dozens or hundreds of miles away. How long does it take to gather the young and strong tribes to gather?

It seems that the first step is to follow Lu Xiangsheng's suggestion, help them build the acropolis first, and gather 20 or 30 tribes together in advance, so that it will be much more convenient to assemble and train young and strong people.

However, gathering people from twenty or thirty tribes together will face one problem, that is, the food problem.

Originally, these tribes were mainly hunting, and there were not many tribes that could actually grow crops.

Moreover, even if the tribes of farming crops are not very large, the yield is even more terrible.

In this case, how to solve the problem of food gathering people from twenty or thirty tribes together?

More than 100,000 people hunt in an area, and the prey within a radius of hundreds of miles will be hunted soon, and there will be famine.

It seems that after establishing the Acropolis, they have to teach them to open up land and farm, otherwise, the people of these tribes will have to rely on him to help with food.

This is no problem for a year or two, but it will not work if you continue to support it like this.

This is true for people. If you get used to eating plain rice and can eat enough without doing anything, you will become lazy.

If the people here are too lazy to open up land and farm by themselves, and the population will grow explosively like the royal family of the Ming Dynasty, it will be a big trouble.

Alas, the officials who accompanied him didn't seem to know this particularly well. The work of reclaiming land and farming was the responsibility of the Ministry of Agriculture. If I had known it, I would have brought Chen Zilong here.

Now that I have to send a boat to Beizhili to pick up people.

He was sighing secretly there, and some black dots appeared in front of him.

This should be the settlement of the Waht tribe.

He raised the telescope hanging on his chest and saw that it was indeed a very large straw shed in front of him.

There is no way. Now the Indians would only use branches to build a bracket and then lay hay outside.

Alas, I have to teach them how to build houses, build city walls, etc.

Fortunately, the Ministry of Works has brought enough officials this time, so they can teach them to build the acropolis, gather people together, and then teach them to grow food.

He pondered for a while, the settlement of the Waht tribe was already close in front of him, and the fence made of branches was densely packed with fear that hundreds of people would not stand.

These should be the chiefs of the Sioux tribes.

When Taichang saw that the distance was so close, he quickly raised his hand and said, "Stop moving forward."

"Metaphor." A dense shout sounded, and tens of thousands of cavalrymen in the Shenwu Camp quickly gathered behind him and formed a huge square formation.

He looked around for a moment, then pointed to the small river not far from the left: "Wenzhao, take his cavalry to the river to set up a camp."

After saying that, he waved his hand slightly, took the accompanying civil servants and military generals and a group of masters to get off the horse and walked towards the tribe chiefs.

As soon as he walked to the tribe chiefs, the chiefs "rattled" and all slapped on the grass, chattering and clamoring.

Well, it seems that I have to teach people to read and read quickly, otherwise it would be too inconvenient to communicate with them.

Taichang was stunned for a moment, then raised his hands and said, "No gifts, flatter you."

Chen Siming translated aloud, and the chiefs quickly got up from the ground.

Next, we will introduce the names of the tribe and the chief's name one by one.

Taichang was so angry that he heard this.

Forget the name of the tribe, what are the names of these people? What are the black deer, white cloud, sitting cow, war eagle, little black bird, red hat...

OK, let’s wait until the camp is set up first.

He smiled and nodded for nearly two quarters of an hour, and more than a hundred tribal chiefs finally finished introducing them.

At this time, the camp was almost set up.

He thought for a while, then he called a accompanying captain Jinyi to explain it to him, and then waved his hand and led the chiefs to the camp.

There was no way. They came here this time and couldn't bring too much tent. His tent was just a ten-person tent, and he couldn't stand so many people at all.

He could only order people to put the tables and benches he brought over outside the big tent.

Soon, a large group of people came to the open space in the middle of the camp.

Taichang sat directly on the bench in front of the big tent, and a group of translators began to direct the chiefs to arrange them into three small square formations in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, he waved his hand directly, and Chen Siming took out the edict and read it loudly.

Of course, Chen Siming was pronounced in Suzu.

The roughly means that the Ming Dynasty conferred the Suda Tribe Alliance as Suda Kingdom, the Suda Tribe Alliance as Suna Kingdom, and the Suda Rakota Tribe Alliance as Suna Kingdom.

All the three kingdoms manage tribal alliance affairs in the form of a Presbyterian Church. Each tribe elects a great elder to participate in tribal alliance management. If there is anything that cannot be decided, you can ask the Governor of the Ming Dynasty to mediate.

This time, the chiefs of each tribe need to agree on the territory of the Three Kingdoms and the location of the capital.

From then on, the Three Kingdoms became a vassal of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty established cities and fortresses for various countries, provided food aid, and taught various knowledge.

In addition, the Three Kingdoms each selected 30,000 to 40,000 troops and formed a 100,000 Sioux coalition. The Ming Dynasty equipped the Sioux coalition with weapons and equipment and various military supplies, provided food and salary, and sent generals and schools to practice.

I hope that the Sioux coalition forces can fight bravely under the command of the Ming generals and officers, and work with other tribal coalition forces to completely drive the invaders out of the North American continent.

When the chiefs heard this, they all lay on the ground and shouted excitedly.

They have been terrified by the Spanish over the years.

They all knew that without a tribal army and advanced weapons and equipment, they would only be beaten.

This time, the Ming Dynasty forced Spain to return the territory to them with hundreds of thousands of troops and thousands of warships. If the Ming army retreated, even if they were not abused by the Spanish, they might be beaten by the invaders in the east!

Now, the Ming Dynasty not only gave them weapons and equipment, but also took them to drive the invaders out of this continent!

The Ming Dynasty would also build city fortresses for them, provide food aid, and teach various knowledge.

In the future, they will no longer have to worry, and they can finally live a peaceful life.

Seeing that these people were almost shouting, Taichang stood up, personally picked up a big banner with the word Su, spread it in the wind, and then said loudly: "In the future, you will be a vassal subject of the Ming Dynasty. I specially granted the surname Su, Su."

When the chiefs heard this, they were still a little confused at first.

However, after Chen Siming explained, they shouted excitedly again.
