Chen Mu dared to say that in the past 30 years, no aboriginal tribal chief has seen more tribal chiefs than in Changsheng County.

With a single call from the heights, he broke through the boundaries of the territory and summoned most of the tribal chiefs from Mexico in the south to the Blackwater Islands in the north.

By the end of June, the number of aboriginal leaders gathered in Changsheng County had reached 400, each of whom had his own subordinates, with a minimum of three or four people and a maximum of forty or fifty people.

Zou Yuanbiao was very skillful, he planned the land, sent craftsmen, and even asked the sawmill and brick kiln factory to prepare building materials, all piled up on both sides of the planned streets, whenever a tribal leader and his people arrived by boat or on foot to Changsheng and Chen Mu's 'alliance', he first arranged for people to camp in the streets that were still under planning, and let them build houses under the guidance of craftsmen.

There were too many people in the name of it, and the war delayed Chang Sheng's construction of houses, so he had to resign himself to the chiefs, and the aboriginal leaders had no objection to this, just as the white horse was even willing to take his men to the port to work as porters - the sense of dignity and inferiority of the aborigines was not as clear as that of the Ming people in the west or the Spaniards in the east.

Tribal chiefs and war leaders were elected, and in addition to those who were exempt from levy by the Spaniards, native chiefs were required to hunt on their own, and some were even chosen as chiefs because they were better hunters, farmers, or breeders than others.

The leader of the wolf pack is often stronger, and the leader of the crowd is the same, having more outstanding talents than others, and being able to lead more people to survive better is the foundation of becoming a leader.

Humans used to recognize bloodlines regardless of geography, but most of them happened in a certain period when they were stable enough, and some people had more resources and made rules, and the rules were made in their favor to form a bloodline theory, but at this moment, there was no huge empire in the north of Asia, and the Aztecs in the south had been destroyed for a long time, and the aborigines happened to not be in that era of recognition of bloodlines.

Most people don't think that this is the contempt of the Ming people for them, and even Zou Yuanbiao can provide building materials and guidance in their opinion.

Of course, there are a few people who are dissatisfied, but Zou Yuanbiao said: "What's the use of being dissatisfied? ”

What's the use?

Well?

Isn't the five streets covered by Mayoer?

From the north circle of Daojun Temple, the second courtyard near the center of the planned city to the edge of the small courtyard, isn't it all properly built and constructed in strict accordance with the plan?

There are only a few business ghosts like White Horse, not to mention that the aborigines further north of the Boundary Peninsula do not use cocoa beans, and some come with goods such as animal skins, animal bones, and feathers, and more tribal leaders simply come empty-handed.

Thanks to the favorable environment here, most of the aborigines who came here only needed to go around the field to eat their stomachs round, and did not bring much food burden to Changsheng County.

However, administratively, so many tribal leaders put a lot of pressure on the military staff, Zhao Shizhen complained: "They have strange names, they have all kinds of names, Dashuai, according to the students' opinions, it is better to divide them into two categories." ”

Chen Mu looked at the long list and was also dizzy, he didn't expect that he could summon so many tribal leaders with a summons, and he was embarrassed about this matter, when he heard Zhao Shizhen's words, he suddenly came to his senses and asked, "Which two types?" ”

Zhao Shizhen concluded: "There will be those who speak Chinese and those who can't speak Chinese. ”

So simple and crude?

"That's a good point, but it doesn't solve the problem."

Chen Mu put the list of local leaders with strange names written on the table, and said, "I have gathered many leaders to let them belong to the Ming Dynasty, and secondly, I want to make the names of these leaders appear on the treaty demarcating the border with the Spaniards. ”

What he really wanted was a tripartite treaty, in which the Ming would receive both Spain's lands and natives in the New World, as well as the populations of the aborigines.

With more than 400 tribal leaders, counting their retinue of tens of thousands, when the time comes, go and sign a treaty so that Alva will not be scared into going to war for him again?

"Be as detailed as possible, divide them into groups, and each group will choose a larger leader, and come with me to Alva when the time comes."

Zhao Shizhen listened to Chen Mu's request, sighed and said: "It's good to say that Chang Sheng and Jincheng are close to the left, the biggest tribal alliance around Changsheng is Baima, Zheng Tu has the final say on Jincheng, but it is difficult to get close to Majiagang in the north, there is no tribal alliance over there, and now their biggest leader is Ma Shuai." ”

There is no tribe near Majiagang, the weather is cold there, the traffic is difficult all the year round, and the local people even if they use boats near the sea are only hollowed out of wood to make canoes, especially tricky because the land over there is extremely vast, and there are many leaders who come.

To the west of Majiagang alone, there are nearly 100 tribal leaders, don't look at the large tribes with a population of more than 1,000, there are only a few, but that is the most popular place in the Ming Dynasty, after all, Magui has dealings with almost every tribe there.

It was because of Ma Gui's two years of operation in Majiagang and his difficult migration path that Chen Mu greeted him, and even the leaders of more than a hundred tribes came on the Ming boat to inquire.

Don't talk about white horses in other places, even if it is Zheng Tu, the first cognition is also the Zhuangyuanqiao people, followed by the Ming Dynasty people, the white horse is more difficult, his first recognition is the Aztecs who have died in the country, then the Spaniards, and finally he will believe that he is a Ming Dynasty person.

The vicinity of Majiagang is different, they have never heard of the Aztec Empire and Spain, they have no concept of a country at all, and the countries in their cognition are all the Celestial Empire instilled by the Ming army in trade before the annual heavy snow closes the road.

Do you really want to say that the place in their minds is similar to the country, the accumulation mountain tribe of the Bull Demon King?

"If there is no alliance, then let them join one, and all the tribes south of the boundary monument will belong to the White Horse Alliance; The north of the boundary monument to the territory of the Yi tribe is considered the Yi Alliance, and the Majiagang in the northwest, the demons and monsters over there are called the Liberation Alliance. ”

"Let them elect the leader, and then give themselves a nice name, before the peace, Chen will give them a gold medal on behalf of His Majesty, and when the time comes, it will not be okay to report to the emperor a bunch of Bull Demon King Red Boys."

Zhao Shizhen wrote down Chen Mu's request, and then Chen Mu reminded: "Some of them know each other, some don't know each other, first select the leaders who can speak Chinese, and then rank them in order according to the size, wealth, and prestige of the tribe, from one to four hundred and thirty-two, and then mark the territory of each tribe on the map and do it for me." ”
