Chapter 27 (1/2)
Although Hongyun is a noble sacrifice to kabulu, her power is relatively small in terms of manpower transfer. If there is no extremely special situation, as a sacrifice, Hongyun can not mobilize too many people.
To mobilize all the people is a power that only the leader can have.
This kind of power is sacred and unshakable, otherwise a tribe will be in complete disorder. This is the experience of the North American Indians after not knowing how many years, so in a tribe, the leader or chief is definitely the most powerful person.
Sacrifice or high priest can only be said to be the spiritual leader of a tribe.
Stone bear is very clear that Hongyun's support is not enough to develop gaoshu tribe. Now that leader Li Lei admits his so-called ”son of God”, let him help him while he can give orders.
Hearing what Shi Xiong said, Li Lei was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: ”now you need the help of the people, so you can say it. As long as it's a reasonable request, I'll try my best to satisfy you. ”
”Chief, actually, there is nothing difficult. It's trivial and needs more manpower. Now I need to look for a kind of white and delicate soil. In addition, I need to look for a kind of white stone. This kind of stone should be very common, but that kind of white and delicate soil should not be easy to find, so I need help from the people. Of course, it would be better to find a kind of stone with metallic luster. ”
After a pause, Shi Xiong continued to explain: ”the first two things are the key things needed for steelmaking. Without these two things, steel is difficult to produce. With these two things, we can have our own steel as well as those vasichus.”
Li Lei seemed very interested and asked, ”what are these two things for? What's the use of the last stone with metallic luster you mentioned? ”
It's not easy to explain. I can't tell Lilei that kaolin clay is needed to make both the crucible and the refractory bricks used in the steel-making blast furnace? As for limestone, it is an indispensable slagging agent in blast furnace steelmaking. Without this, it is difficult to guarantee the quality of steel.
So the stone bear said vaguely: ”the great sun god told me that if I want to make my own steel, these two things are indispensable. As for the last kind of stone, it is actually an iron ore. If the white soil and white stone in front are indispensable auxiliaries for steelmaking, then the black gray, dark red or earth yellow stone is the direct source of steel. This kind of stone is called iron ore. only in this kind of stone can steel be made
”There should be white soil, white stone and iron ore around our tribe, but the supreme Sun God didn't tell me where they were buried, so I need the help of the tribe to find these three things. As long as we have these three things, plus the coal I found this morning with Kuaima, we can make our own steel. In the future, the weapons in our soldiers' hands will be changed into steel weapons, and we will no longer need to exchange those beautiful fur with those vasichus for iron pots. ”
Li Lei was a little excited when he heard the explanation of Shi Xiong. ”Dali Xiong, as long as we find these three things, we can really have our own steel weapons?”
