Chapter 267: The Hunt (1)
Regiment Commander Lei stood up with the handle of his gun, drank too much wine and staggered.
The burning knives in clay pots, drinking one can and dropping one can, Captain Lei drank the most, dropping two or three cans.
And Fan Yang is not good at drinking, he can drink, but if he doesn't drink, he is more restrained.
Look at this state, the head of the wild boar in the big black sky, drunk like this, what if the gun is empty?
I'm afraid something will happen.
The other three fighters were also drunk.
Fan Yang was really a little worried, and persuaded: "Why don't you forget it tonight?" It's enough fun, come back tomorrow?"
Captain Lei waved his hand: "What's the matter, you just look at it, it's over, it's a bad thing, you have to clean it up and go." ”
The three Britons and Gao Yongkang were also so excited that one of them carried a shotgun.
Fan Yang looked at Chief of Staff Huang.
Chief of Staff Huang didn't drink much.
This is a calm person after all, right?
handed over a look, but he didn't expect Chief of Staff Huang to look indifferent: "It's okay, it's just two wild boars, this day, the fat is not on it, what are you afraid of, you don't need to put the gun, a few dogs will bite to death." ”
Fan Yang was stunned.
What is the rationale for this?
No matter how fierce the three horse dogs are, it is impossible for them to bite the wild boar to death, right?
Chief of Staff Huang saw that Fan Yang didn't believe it, and said with a smile: "It's okay, you can bite to death, let's cover up on the side." ”
"Didn't you say that one pig, two bears and three tigers? This wild boar is rushing forward, and it is not easy to subdue it, right?"
The warrior with the bow and arrow said: "It depends on when, the big boar is powerful, there are five or six hundred pounds of fat in the autumn, the skin is rough and thick, at this time it can only be shot, the dog is easy to turn around, and there is a time when the cub is fierce, at this time the pig begins to lose hair, easy to fight." ”
I've just chatted and already met.
The man with the bow and arrow in front of him was named Chaha Charcai, a member of the Xibe tribe.
Generations of living in the Ili area, nomadic hunting for a living, good at riding, there is a Xibe Autonomous County over there, there is a preservation of the ancient bow and arrow making technology, Char Cai is a horn hard bow, handmade, Fan Yang tried a hand, the bow is hard, especially the string hurts the hand, it is not easy to pull away.
But what is depressing is that Zar Cai has such a retro name, but the nickname is a bit painful, and their place is also seriously sinicized, because he is the second oldest in the family, called Cha Erwa.
The other two little warriors, both of whom are of Han nationality and are not very old, but they are good at hunting and military technology, and they were attached to the guard regiment by the head of the Lei regiment.
In this way, he is also mainly responsible for the living and safety of Captain Lei.
The guard's hut in the forest farm is still a mile or two away from the cornfield, and it is impossible to ride horses when you get there, and the wild boars are alert and have to be scared away.
A small warrior was left to guard the hut.
Others turned on their flashlights and walked to the farm where the wild boars were located.
A round of silver moon in the sky, a few floating clouds are leisurely, under the moonlight is the majestic and continuous Tianshan mountain range, under the moonlight, a few cedar forests at the foot of the mountain swaying with the breeze, from time to time there are two terrible night owl calls.
A group of people was excited.
Walking on the path in the field, the extremely good professional quality of the three horse dogs was once again reflected, leading the way in front, neither howling nor barking, and scattered in the shape of an arrow.
One end walks on the ridge, and the other two walks through the cornfield.
These three horse dogs, which are both military dogs and hunting dogs, have been trained in militarization since they were born, and have been trained into hunting dogs by Charcai, one is called chasing the wind, the other is called lightning, and the other is called thunder.
Chasing the wind is the first dog, both fierce and alert, and the sentinel of the dog pack.
Afraid of disturbing the wild boar, a group of people did not speak, only the dry smoke pot of the old man Alimu occasionally came out with a little red light.
After walking for about ten minutes, Chasing the Wind suddenly stopped, raised his head and sniffed twice against the wind, and his ears were pricked up.
Alimu, who led the way, pinched the dry tobacco pot: "Commander, it's ahead." ”
"Be careful, all the tricks are bright. "Turn the flashlight out.
The three warriors were the first to crouch down.
Regiment Commander Lei and Chief of Staff Huang also squatted down.
Everyone gathered in a circle.
Chief of Staff Huang said: "A few of you are fighting wild boars for the first time, you have no experience, just be responsible for playing flashlights, don't panic, let Chief of Staff Huang arrange tactics for us." ”
"Lay out the tactics of a ball, and the clever point is over. "I took a piece of straw paper and tested the direction of the wind, and then let the army drive away.
A group of people walked cautiously.
Chief of Staff Huang said: "The wild boar has a smart nose, and it smells three miles in the wind, but this thing has no neck, can't turn back, can't raise its head, and relies on the wind to eat, the leeward can only smell one meter, and can only be played in the upper wind. ”
He added: "The lower foot is also light, it can't hear a little wind and grass, and if you step on a broken branch or something, it's a little hanging." ”
Fan Yang still didn't know the bottom in his heart, after all, he still had a shotgun on his back, and asked in a low voice, "What kind of fighting style do we have?"
Chief of Staff Huang saw Fan Yang shrug the shotgun on his back, Commander Gang Lei was drunk, he didn't explain clearly, he was really afraid that Fan Yang and them would mess around, and said, "Are you guns loaded?"
"It's on. ”
"Remember, unless you rush to the front, you shoot, it's for your self-protection, not hunting, this kind of thing is handed over to the dog and the second baby, we have to stop when we advance to a distance of a few hundred meters, the dog will go up first, and drive the wild boar out, when the time comes, one, two, three, let's play the flashlight together, see how big the pig is, if not, let's go up and mend the knife, you translate it to a few Englishmen." ”
Fan Yang stopped the three Britons and said it again.
When I looked back and saw Gao Yongkang, my spirit seemed to be in a trance.
His feet seemed to be shaking a little.
Something wasn't quite right with him.
Shaking his face with a flashlight, he found that his lips were white.
I was so scared.
"Hey, do you have any problems, don't be stubborn, or I'll be here with you. ”
"Where, where is it, that is, yes, it's a little cold. ”
The two little warriors looked back and just saw it, and smiled secretly.
This boy is so daring.
Or Fan Yang was careful: "You haven't walked the night road?"
"Well, I haven't walked in a place like this, isn't that a ghost's scream?"
Fan Yang couldn't hold back: "What the hell is it called, it's a night owl." ”
After the flashlight went out, Gao Yongkang didn't take two steps, his feet slipped, and he almost fell, and after standing up, the wind blew the reed pole next to him and moved a few times, as if he saw something passing by, and when he looked again, he saw a white flower.
I was scared.
Now I said a few words to Fan Yang, relieved a little, and asked, "What is a night owl?"
"Owl, don't you call you night owls?"
"Oh, so, understand, that, what is that?
Gao Yongkang pointed to a place in front of him.
Fan Yang took a closer look, there was a dirt bag bulging on the mountain bag, two wooden sticks were inserted on it, and two strings of paper ingots were hung on it, it should be who went to the grave here.
"Don't think about it, what kind of spirit flag, others have gone to the grave. ”
It is really a tomb, and Gao Yongkang is trembling again.
"It's okay, you're such an adult, why are you still chattering, you follow me. ”
"Then you have to protect me. ”
"Aren't you afraid that I'll soak you?"
"Temporary exceptions. ”
Fan Yang pursed his lips and found a little strength coming from the waist of his pants, and looked back to see that this boy was shrinking his neck, carrying a shotgun cross-legged, like a child pulling a train to hold his clothes.
"What are you doing?"
"Let me hold it for a moment. ”
"You're not afraid that I'll eat your tofu?"
Gao Yongkang shook his head violently: "It's a big deal to go back and settle accounts with you." ”
Followed a little closer.
"Whisper, stop making a fuss. "Captain Huang is still sober.
With a hand up, beckoning the team to stop.
Squat all over.
It's already in place.
All three dogs stopped, and a dirt bag stretched out to watch.
There was a little movement in front of him, and another old Hui man guarding here, Ajimu, trotted over with his waist down.
He bowed his waist and saluted Captain Lei: "Hello Commander, it's still below." ”
"It's good to be here, hard work Ajimu, keep up. ”
There are still several hundred meters to the wild boar.
At this time, it was a two-meter-high earthen fort with weeds, and a long slope underneath.
Standing on a high place and looking down, it is equivalent to a low-lying place.
After the slope, there is a small stream at the foot of the mountain, followed by a large area of cornfield, which is clearly separated by a series of slender ridges, and you can see it from here.
What a great hunting ground.
The new reins warmed up earlier, and in February and March, the corn was sown.
The early harvest is ripe in May and June.
At this time, it is the time for the corn to grow hair, and the small corn the size of a palm is tender and juicy, which is irresistible to the wild boar.
The moon and stars are scarce, and the snow on the mountains produces a good luminous effect, reflecting the white expanse under your feet, even if you don't have a flashlight, the sight is very good.
A group of people touched the front of the fort, everyone squatted down, the corn stalk had grown to more than one person's height, and I don't know how far ahead, it seemed that they really found the rickety movement.
