Volume 2 Playing with the Tribe Chapter 129 Wolf Sledding
In the end, the deer finally saw what was going on in front of her, how could she not know what was going on after experiencing life in the cave, and said that the leader still had such a cute side, but his big hands were really warm!
Ding Qi, who fled back to the yard, quickly shook the deer's little hand, smiled, and quickly fled back to his wooden house, but found that there was no one. Ding Qixin said, I can understand if Ben didn't come back, Buck, you have become an old man and still don't stay in the house, where is this going?
Ding Qi is really not wrong, as long as everyone in the tribe can go out to wave. Lying on the bed, looking at the fire pit in the outhouse, he hummed a song:
"Wave in the wave, wave in the wave, wave in the wave!
The wild wave is an attitude, the wild wave is up and down, the wild wave is the wild wave.
The wild wave is an attitude, the wild wave is not restrained, the wild wave wild wave~"
For the next ten days, the entire tribe was in full swing to build. The newcomers trained under the leadership of Moo and Feng, including Zhuangya, to improve their combat literacy and skills, including using wooden spears to practice bayonets.
Some of the slaves were led by red deer to cut down trees and burn charcoal, while some of the slaves were led by Jing to make 30 snow plows and sleds that Ding Qi told him. The snow plough should have a frame and be able to carry something more than limestone ore or tin ore. The support group continued to make costumes and pottery, and the costumes included gloves, animal leather shoes, and snowshoeing shoes in large quantities, and three hunting squads were to be equipped with at least three sets each. The task was a bit heavy, so they transferred people from the slave group and worked overtime. Even the newcomers are pulled over in the evening to do snowshoeing because they have done it and are familiar with it.
Under the leadership of Ding Qi, the three hunting teams stepped on skis and went into the jungle for a week of special field training, and the activity site was within five kilometers of the residence, expelling or hunting some fierce beasts that might endanger the personal safety of the tribe. Territory is then marked with their own urine, which is a useful way for animals to keep some predators away from the area marked by their urine, as long as they don't actively attack it.
Then they began to move in the direction of the original deer tribe, also clearing and expelling the beasts along the way, and building a temporary residence in the location of the deer tribe. The living place is dominated by a relative "" shaped shack, which is ventilated and doors are built on both sides to keep warm, so it can be quickly built without breaking the ground. Especially now, the snow is piled up directly, which is impermeable to the wind, and the warmth is better than the kind of shack made before the snow. It's just that after the snow melts, Ding Qi and the others have to re-lay the soil to seal it.
By the time Ding Qi returned, thirty snow plows had been prepared. Jing referred to the three frames he had made before, and with more practical work, he made the snow climbing plow very strong. To test the sturdiness of the tools and to get the hunting party accustomed to the use of snow climbing plows and snowshoe, Tinch arranged for the group to come to the tin mine, and each of them carried six carts of ore back and forth. At the end of the day, Ding Qi checked the quality of the snow climbing plow one by one, and found that there were basically no major problems, and it was relatively easy to pull on the snow.
To achieve his goal, Tinche asked the red deer to refine at least one-third of the tin ore in the remaining two days.
Up to now, the Ding tribe has
There are eight ash kilns, but there are only 17 male slaves working in the ash kilns, and Jing He took five slaves to do carpenter work, and there are 11 left. These people were also busy smashing ore, feeding the ash kiln, removing slag, blowing air into the ash kiln, etc., and the manpower seemed to be a little stretched, so Ding Qi had to send three people from each of the three teams to help. The smelted metal tin is stacked on a large animal skin specially prepared by Ding Qi, ready to be used the day after tomorrow.
It seems that there will be more manpower!
Afterwards, Ding Qi arranged for the hunting team to load things in the animal skin backpack according to the requirements of his list, and checked whether his weapons, skis, shoes and clothing, and tools were in place, whether there was any damage, and prepared for departure.
And Ding Qi himself took Jing and Xiao Hei Xiaobai to the gate of the courtyard, carrying two leather cases in his hands. There was a sled made of Jing parked in front of the door, and Ding Qi was ready to try his hand at dog sledding.
He picked up two leather cases and put them on the back of his shoulders and put them on his shoulders and white respectively. The two guys were also very excited, jumping up and down, sticking out their tongues and licking, circling around Ding Qi, and keeping Ding Qi sweating.
The holster, that is, the dog holster, is made by Qiao'er according to Ding Qi's requirements, and it cannot be compared with the holster of the 21st century, but it is also very exquisite. In order to ensure that the holster is strong, the interconnected belts are relatively wide, up to six or seven centimeters. The holster is made like a strap, which is put in from the head, and the two legs are threaded in, and there is a belt on the back and chest that extends backwards.
The belt on the chest splits into two strips after reaching the abdomen, extending above the abdomen to the tail, and finally joins with the belt that comes from the back, and when it is sewn firmly, it forms a dead buckle at the tail with a rope pulled from the sled.
The two wolves were curious about this, but they had to stand in front of them according to Xiang Qi's request. After Ding Qi gave the command to move forward, the two wolves quickly activated, tightened the rope behind them, and drove the sleigh forward. The wolf has wide soles and is less affected when stepping on snow.
At this moment, Ding Qi was not on the sled, but just holding the sled forward. Feeling the two of them get used to the traction behind them, Tinch asked them to speed up and jog while standing on the rack behind the sled with his left foot and his right foot on the snow behind him, just putting a little heavier pressure on the two wolves.
After running for some distance, not seeing the two of them struggling, Tinch signaled to speed up again, and after a while hung his whole body on the sleigh, continuing to exert gravity. But Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai are still very relaxed, they are now the same size as half-grown calves, Ding Qi rides on a certain back, they can carry a certain distance, not in a hurry or panting.
At this moment, the two wolves had been pulling Ding Qi to run for a while, and they were still very excited, especially Xiaobai. After running for a while, it began to spin around Xiao Hei, jumped to the right for a while, and jumped back again, gradually affecting Xiao Hei's movement, and transferring the weight that should have been borne by itself to Xiao Hei.
The sleigh began to twist and twist, and the two ropes gradually became wound together, and finally the sleigh began to tilt to the left, and the angle of inclination became larger and larger, and it seemed that it was about to overturn.
Ding Qi hurriedly shouted to stop, and pressed his own weight on the right, finally there
When the two wolves stopped, they controlled the sled and did not overturn. At speeds close to 50 km/h, it is still very dangerous to fall, and there is a great possibility that the sled that has just been made will be damaged.
Little Black and White squatted in front of him, sticking out his tongue and gasping to cool his body. And Ding Qi, who was standing in the back, was also so frightened that his forehead sweated, and after gasping for breath twice, he came to the front and handed them a small piece of meat to show encouragement. Then start looking at how to avoid what just happened.
Ben, who had been following behind, also saw the scene that had just happened, and quickly slid over to ask if there were any questions.
Just now, it was because Xiao Bai was going back and forth left and right that the ropes were twisted together, and in the end, the space for their activities became smaller and smaller, and Xiao Bai kept pulling to the left to try to move away from Xiao Hei to increase the space for movement. Unexpectedly, in the end, it almost overturned.
If you can control Xiaobai and prevent it from moving, the two ropes will not be wrapped together, how can you keep Xiaobai from moving?
Ding Qi scratched his head, touched his chin and was still thinking there. Suddenly, he remembered that when he was a child, he saw the villagers driving cattle and plowing the fields. Oxen have a lot of strength, and they only need one ox to plow the land, but after all, there are few oxen, so farmers who do not have oxen use two mules to pull the plow. One person holds the plough and the other pulls the mule forward, but it is two mules, how can they move in unison?
The clever farmer wanted to solve this problem with a simple solution, that is, to tie the horse's bridle with a rope less than half a meter long, so that the mule would not run back and forth, and it would move together. The person pulling the mule exerts force to the left, and the mule on the left can drive the rope to bring the mule on the right together, which can better manipulate the mule and save manpower.
Ding Qi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked Ben to go back to get the rope and put a collar on the two of them, although there were some discomforts, but the problem was finally solved.
It didn't take long for the two wolves to run again, and according to Ding Qi's orders, they turned left and right, and circled in a big circle. When Xiaobai wanted to jump back and forth again, the short rope restrained it from succeeding. Ding Qi is more comfortable with manipulation, and this is also due to the result of training them from an early age.
Yo roar~
Ding Qi's voice spread far away, and Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai also felt Ding Qi's mood, and they also spread joy to their heart's content, and galloped side by side on the snowy field of grassland. Seeing this, everyone at the gate of the courtyard cheered, they were proud that they could survive in the Ding tribe, and they were proud to have such a powerful leader. At this time, what more can the husband ask for? Only by being loyal to Ding Qi and the tribe, under the leadership of Ding Qi, will the tribe be built stronger.
After a while, Ding Qi commanded the two wolves back to the tribe. The two of them were obviously tired from wheezing violently, and when they were almost rested, Tinch brought over two large bowls of warm salt water, as well as two rabbits whose necks had just been twisted.
The dog sled experiment was successful, and Ding Qi's mind was also open, thinking about how to increase some taming animals. There are no wolves for the time being, after the black and white wolf king and his wife and their clansmen were eliminated by Ding Qi, no wolves dared to come over, so they could only search for other places, and they were only wolves.
