The Iroquois Tree of Peace sounded like Hulan was very similar to the tributary system of the Celestial Empire.

If the same message is acceptable to Chen Mu, he knows what words to use to describe the situation - ideological output.

Moreover, the Iroquois alliance was much more expansive than the tributary system of the Celestial Empire.

The Iroquois legend of the Tree of Peace refers to the fact that they believe that all tribes that hate the Longhouse Alliance are evil, and that these tribes are constantly at war, and that the Iroquois have an obligation to rid the land of the evil of war, and they will pull up a tall pine tree and dig a very deep crypt in the ground, and there is water flowing in the hole, and they will throw the root of the war deep into the hole.

The descendants of the Iroquois will never see war, for the Iroquois will plant back the tree that was originally there, and the leaders of the Confederate tribes will plant it back, and this tree will be the Tree of Peace.

At the top of the Tree of Peace, a watchout eagle will come to detect danger in advance, and they will make the peaceful coexistence of tribes a law, called the Great Law, and the Iroquois are inherently obligated to show the fruits of this Great Law to everyone.

Because according to the agreement of the two founders of the Iroquois Alliance, Haifasa and Decanaveda, the Great Peace Tree has four roots called the Great White Root, which extends to the north, south, east and west, and any tribe willing to abide by the peace agreement and obey the orders of the Alliance Council can find the Iroquois along this Great White Root, and everyone is welcome to come to the protection of the Great Peace Tree.

In the dead of night in the camp, the big raccoon told Hulan about these mythical covenants, he knocked out his pipe and said to Hulan: "Your actions have violated the laws of peace, and if we don't have enough strength, the rice tribe will be classified as a member of the evil tribe." ”

The big raccoon dog is very tired.

I, a withered primitive tribal chief on the shores of Lake Michigan, survived in troubled times in order to keep my small tribe with mountains, rivers and fields, just because I picked up a Mongolian son-in-law with his own elite soldiers by the lake last year, how did I become the sixth chief of the Iroquois Alliance?

"It's the way to go."

The night of the camp was unusually quiet, and the kerosene lamps flickered and dusk under the dark green tent, and Hulan said: "The Heavenly Army is coming, Iroquois can't fight like this, I can't abuse the prisoners like this, I can't get used to it, the Beiyang Army will see it in the eyes of the time, and it will bring disaster to everyone." ”

"Celestial Army?"

This is the first time that the big fox has mentioned his origin from Hulan's mouth, and he has always been very curious about this son-in-law of unknown origin, but he has never thought about it - they look similar, and more importantly, for the rice mining department, people from a radius of fifty miles from the tribe are unknown.

"Do you know where I'm from?"

The big raccoon replied succinctly and clearly: "Yes, from a far away." ”

"I'm not fifty miles, well, do you know how far a mile is?" The old father-in-law said that it was far away, and with Hulan's understanding of him, it was fifty miles away: "From the rice washing department to here, it is 1,450 miles." ”

Hulan raised his hand on the ground to draw a general route of travel, he had not studied cartography specifically, but the training on Kuwu Island let him know how to read military maps, he drew a simple route and explained: "Not counting the part of the road that went to Haifasha to turn back, it is only from the rice department to here, which is 1,400 miles." ”

"From the rice department to the west, I led my subordinates to walk 4,000 miles on the grassland, but in fact we walked farther than 4,000 miles, and people sometimes scattered to the north, sometimes to the south."

"To the west of the grassland, there are overlapping plateaus and mountains, and we walked 3,000 miles in the mountains, which took much longer than in the grasslands."

"Big and small, the rice department is the one hundred and forty-fourth tribe I met, and further west is the sea, and there is a city by the sea, called Jincheng."

This math problem is very difficult for the big raccoon, too difficult, and meaningless, no matter whether it is 1,300 miles or 13,000 miles, it is 50 miles away for the big raccoon.

Old Taishan seemed to understand whether he understood or not, but his expression was very serious and serious, he responded calmly, looked at Hulan's weathered face and nodded: "Your tribe is very rich. ”

To be precise, it should be the country, but Hulan obviously realized that his father-in-law had received too much knowledge today, and it was difficult to understand it in more detail, this was already a good start, he nodded and said, "Yes, we have strong horses, good steel knives and axes, as well as bird guns and cannons. ”

But what he thought was obviously not on the same line as the big raccoon, and the big raccoon said, "You guys are too full, no one will go so far." ”

These words made it impossible for Hulan to continue.

Thinking about it, he was even persuaded by his father-in-law...... That's right, why did Chen Mu throw them to Majiagang to starve and freeze?

"Iroquois, five tribes guarding each other can gather 10,000 warriors together in four months, but sending out to attack the Huron can only send 3,000 legions, and the Huron and Iroquois are mostly similar."

Even from Hulan's point of view, the military ability of the Iroquois is very poor, their army moves slowly when attacking targets of more than 100 miles, it takes more than half a year to prepare for a long-distance march, the organization of moving people back and forth is also very poor, people are not good at using armor, only simple weapons such as poison darts and longbows.

The most important thing is that there is no standing army, there are no full-time soldiers, and the daily training is good, but it is still much worse than countries with professional soldiers.

Not to mention that compared with the Mongolian tribes, even compared with the Xia An and other tribes that Hulan had seen in the Asian steppe, they were far behind.

The only advantage was that the Iroquois were extremely curious about the use of advanced weapons, and in the short time that the Iroquois had been in the Confederacy alone, Hulan received requests from many people to teach them how to ride horses and teach them how to use bird guns—they were eager to learn better ways of warfare and help them plant the Tree of Peace.

"There will be more of our warriors in the future, maybe when we return to the tribe by the Great Lake, there will be a thousand more warriors, you don't have to be afraid, even if we start a war with the Iroquois, they will definitely lose."

The big raccoon stared at the round eyes: "War with the Iroquois?" ”

Hulan shook his head and said, "I don't want to fight with them, so let them listen to me, and no longer abuse prisoners and can't eat people." ”

In fact, Hulan does not object to beliefs such as the Iroquois Great Peace Tree, nor does he oppose war, which always kills people, but how to die is a problem...... Those who lost on the battlefield were captured, and it doesn't matter if they are killed, it's normal to not surrender, and it's not strange to let them go.

But he was not happy to see the mistreatment of his captives, and even less to see the alliance he joined cannibalistic without lack of food.

It's ridiculous, not morally unacceptable, but more importantly meaningless for what they're trying to achieve.

Their special recipes don't give them the slightest bit of strength, and they can't beat anyone else.

Form complements form, no.

"The Mohawks feel that I can't dispose of his captives, and we will fight with the Huron later, so that they know how to fight."

"My lord, ...... in the future"

Hulan looked at the big raccoon whose mind couldn't digest so many novel thoughts and was still in a state of ignorance, raised his hand and pointed between the two.

"Iroquois listen to us."
