One Thousand Two Hundred and Forty-One: Blessed by divine power, the singing sparrow hunting the mountain eagle!
"Praise the Lord God Huitziloppo! He controls light, thunder and fire, giving harvests, reproduction and victory!...You must believe in my God, He is supreme, supreme and omnipotent!...I, your god's servant, the Songbird Priest, to
You sacrifice three animals: wolf, deer, and fish, and pray for your vision and divine power to come!… Bow down, kowtow! Bow again, kowtow! Bow three times, and sing!…”
When the first ray of morning light rises from the wasteland in the east, illuminating the narrow seashore of thousands of miles; when Feather Pengguali bursts into tears and stands on the wall of the village to pray... In Leijin Town, thousands of miles away in the north, the singing bird
The chief priest is wearing a complicated black and red sacrificial robe and a one-meter-high feather crown. He is standing on the eight-meter-high small pyramid temple, worshiping the rising sun devoutly.
At the feet of the singing bird chief priest, in front of the rare pyramid temple in the northern continent, the endless tribes of Leijin Town knelt on the ground, pressing their foreheads tightly against the soil. On the foreheads of each tribesman,
They are all engraved with the bird pattern of the main god. They speak different tribal languages and draw various tattoos, but they all pray to the main god of the sun.
"Ah! Praise the sun god, he is the brightest, roundest, largest and most powerful god!..."
"Praise the Great God of Plants and Plants! He spreads stone fertilizer on the fields, making the fields harvest abundant and growing endless sweet potatoes!..."
"Praise the Great Spirit of Fire and Stone! He uses strange divine fire to turn stone into useful bronze!"
"Praise the great god of the sea! He gives you a ship that has never been seen before, allowing countless fish to jump into the fishing net!"
"Blessed by the strongest God of War! He lets hunters pick up big bows, warriors lift bronze spears, and shamans summon thunder to kill all hostile tribes!"
Amidst the chaotic shouts, many northern tribes knelt down devoutly, and all their simple faces were full of awe for the powerful gods. In the eyes of these tribes, although the "Go Carrot" great god has various faces,
But he is a tribal god who is truly powerful beyond all others!
This powerful god is extremely generous. Not only can he give enough food, useful metal tools, and large boats for fishing, but he can also bring big bows and arrows, bronze weapons and armor, and the most terrifying thunder.
!
These unheard of and even unimaginable divine powers are gradually changing the lives of the northern tribes and quickly conquering the hearts of the tribes in Leijin Town... causing eight thousand tribesmen to worship in front of the temple and pray devoutly for the blessing and protection of the Lord God.
!
Yes, there are currently 8,000 northern tribes who have converted to the Lord God in Leijin Town of the Kingdom. It is the most powerful and stable stronghold of the Kingdom in the entire northern continent!
Half of these tribes who have converted to the main god are from the former large tribe of Yorem. They have been converted for more than three years. Their beliefs have long been stable and they are willing to fight for the god. As for the remaining half, they come from various sources and have been converted for three years.
It can take several months. Among them, there are the Mayo people who have the same origin as the Yoremu tribe, the Tara people who defected from the wilderness border, the Makuwe people, and the Yaqui people who have the same origin as the large Yome tribe.
, and many mountain tribes with mixed ethnic groups.
The reason why these small tribes with dozens or hundreds of people came to seek refuge not far away from hundreds of miles away was because of the prosperous bronze trade in Leijin Town, which became increasingly famous. And the tribes, large and small, within more than a thousand miles, all benefited from the passing trade.
According to the tribe, they heard that a rich and powerful "Leijin" tribe has emerged on the southwest coast!
This large tribe has endless food, hundreds of armored warriors, a large number of hard and sharp bronze weapons, and a steady stream of large ships carrying goods from the sea! And such a powerful tribe is extremely generous.
, is willing to absorb all the small tribes that seek refuge... and the price to pay for joining the tribe is to devoutly convert to the sun god and be willing to work according to orders. From then on, you will be able to have a full stomach, and you will not have to worry about the Northern God's disaster of hunger and cold!
Having enough food and clothing, being able to survive divine disasters, and being protected by powerful force!…These three precious conditions are simply impossible for the various hunting tribes in the northern continent, especially the small tribes struggling to survive.
Resist the temptation!
On the border of this mountainous wilderness, you can hunt birds and animals in summer, and collect fruits, vegetables, and grains in autumn. These are good seasons of mildness and vitality. Most tribes, large and small, can make do with each other, and some can reproduce more.
Heir. But once the winter comes when the temperature drops sharply, and the spring comes when there is no harvest, it will be a terrible day when coldness and death spread. It is a time when the population of countless tribes plummets, and the old people leave the tribe and go to the mountains alone! And the more people there are, the less people there are.
The more small hunting tribes there are, the less resistant they are to famine and cold waves, and they may even become prey targets for large tribes looking for food rations...
Therefore, every year from November to April, small groups of tribes who cannot survive come to the peak of Leijin Town. After the Songbird Priest led the kingdom's warriors to screen them, most of them refused.

Of course, although these safari tribes have all joined Leijin Town, they cannot be treated equally, and there are still obvious differences between them. The vast majority of tribesmen are engaged in the most basic tribal labor, including farming, fishing, and building temples and houses.
, mining coal, and kneading brick embryos. Only a few devout and relatively intelligent tribes are able to engage in higher-level technical labor, including making pottery, making wood and stone tools, burning bricks, opening kilns, and smelting.
Copper, tin, and smelting worthless gold and silver ores.
As for the core bronze casting, it is only in the hands of dozens of the highest-status kingdom craftsmen and about a hundred local craftsman apprentices. Most of these apprentices are under the age of twenty and have experienced the faith test of the kingdom's priests because they are pious enough.
Only then was he selected and given the opportunity to become a bronze craftsman and join the ruling group of Leijin Town!
Yes, in Leijin Town, the largest stronghold in the north of the kingdom, a three-tier ruling order similar to that of Central American city-states has emerged! And this hierarchical order is rapidly being established with the increase in productivity brought by the kingdom, and is gradually replacing traditional equality.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! In just three or four years, Leijin Town has differentiated into priests and warrior leaders at the top, craftsmen and warriors at the middle level, and workers at the bottom.
The Burakumin at the bottom. If the Burakumin at the bottom want to be promoted, there are three ways.
The first type is those who are devout in faith, talented and intelligent, and can be selected by the kingdom's priests and promoted to priests or craftsman apprentices, relying on knowledge and technology to make a living. The second type is outstanding in force, dare to fight and kill, and rely on excellent archery or fighting skills
, valued by the warriors of the kingdom, trained as elite tribal warriors, and followed the promotion path of military merit and knighthood. As for the very few third type, it is the special promotion situation of the North. Among the newly settled hunting tribes, some rare
Those who are good at farming will be rewarded and promoted based on the kingdom's teachings that encourage farming. They will be regarded as outstanding agricultural guides and become field leaders who manage the farming of dozens of tribesmen.
"Praise the Lord God! From the autumn of last year to the spring of this year, more than a thousand tribal people converted to the righteous faith and joined the kingdom's Leijin Town! The Lord God's faith is taking deep root in this vast northern continent! And with such a
With the speed of development, in less than two years, I will be able to control a large tribe of ten thousand people and mobilize thousands of warriors... Coupled with the progress of the missionary work in the large Yomei tribe, the converted noble chiefs and tribesmen..."
"For the glory of the Lord God, wait two more years! As long as the time is ripe and you have the confidence to control the Yuemei tribe... you can take decisive action, convert this large tribe of ten thousand people in one fell swoop, and exile the Great Mountain Eagle Chief of the Yuemei tribe, completely
Control the huge flint and coal mine belt in the north! And further north, there is the Opata Alliance that controls the Red Copper Mountain, and those birds that are entrenched in the mountains..."
On the small pyramid, the chief priest of the song bird who rules Leijin Town excitedly stretches out his arms, embraces the rising sun in the east, and stares at the high and bright sky. However, his pious heart full of longing has already flown like a song bird.
Far away, they flew to the large tribe of Yuomei, more than five hundred miles away in the north!
The little North American song sparrow, with the blessing of the sun, the main god, and the support of the kingdom in the lake, gradually grew into an ambitious giant bird. The "song sparrow" looked closely at the old "big mountain eagle", patiently
Waiting for a good opportunity to hunt and annex, and even looking towards the red copper mountains further northeast, spying on the "mountain and forest birds" of tens of thousands of tribes.
However, the song sparrow at this moment did not expect that a cunning feathered serpent, which had grown into a spirit from Old Feather, had escaped from the brutal fighting on the southern plateau. Through a series of coincidences, Old Feather finally determined his goal and was about to rush to the destination.
This is the tribal hunting ground of the northern continent, looking for a place where he can settle down with his clan...
