Chapter 104: The Wolf King (I)
I didn't dare to agree to Zhai Li's request easily, after all, I still don't know him very well, once they are given weapons, they will change again, but they will ask for trouble.
"You can follow us, your brothers still stay in the village, and I will send another platoon of people to help defend it, so that if the wolves attack, we can also protect the safety of the village."
Zhai Li also understood that I was still not very confident about them, so I had to follow my arrangement. I specially secretly instructed the platoon commander who stayed in the village to be optimistic about these people, preventing wolves is one thing, and guarding against them is the main task.
After resting for the night, the next day I took the other two platoons of people, together with Zhai Li and Zhai Meng's brothers, into the wild wolf ditch again.
As I walked, I suggested to Ani, "Ani, I think there is something wrong with your competition. You see, whoever kills the most wolves wins, how is this calculated? Is it necessary for everyone to bring another witness? ”
Ani thought about it and it was true, so she was a little anxious and said, "Brother An, you didn't say it earlier, you said it when we all came out, what can I do?" ”
I laughed, "That's what I just thought of, but it's okay, it's too late to correct it now." Isn't there a wolf king, you two just take this wolf king as a bet! Whoever kills the wolf king wins, so things are much simpler! It's also easier to tell who wins and loses. ”
Ani immediately asked Zhai Meng on the side: "I agree with Brother An's idea." What do you think? ”
Zhai Meng said proudly: "You set the rules, you can compete as much as you want." As I said, if you make your debut, I'll continue to ...... However, it is not so easy to find the wolf king......"
Ani pursed her lips and said, "Why try it if it's easy?" ”
Zhai Meng was speechless for a long time when Ani choked, and threw down a sentence: "You're right." Just take a few steps and walk side by side with his brother Zhai Li.
Zhai Li persuaded his younger brother in a low voice and said, "Second brother, forget it, what is there to compare." Even if you win, do you really want to stay alone in this Damangshan? Come with us, how happy it is to be with the brethren! Why do you have to drill this bull's horns! ”
Zhai Meng: "Brother, didn't I tell you, there are too many rules in the army, I'm not used to being controlled, I have the final say in the mountains, I can do whatever I want, free and comfortable!" ”
Zhai Li: "Then what do you rely on to eat?" Still being a bandit? As a one-legged thief? ”
Zhai Meng: "Brother, you have just been recruited, how can you be a bandit!" ”
Zhai Li sighed and said: "Second brother, there was no way for my brother to be a bandit at the beginning, in order to survive, my brother pulled this group of people to do this business. In fact, I have long thought that this is not a long-term solution after all, and now that I have the opportunity to enter the army, I may be able to get a half-official position if I do a good job, so why do we have to hide in the mountains and be a bandit......"
Zhai Meng became irritable and interrupted Zhai Li's words: "Brother, don't say it!" Even if you want me to go with you, you have to let that girl win first! ”
"There are wolves!" A soldier shouted.
A wolf stood on a stone stone in the distance and looked at us, Zhai raised his gun, Ani raised his gun, bang! Bang! The two men fired one shot at each of them almost simultaneously.
The wolf was very alert, and when they raised their guns, they had already turned and ran away, and neither bullet hit, but the bullets hit the stone stalks, and the stone chips flew wildly.
Zhai Meng put down his gun stupidly, turned around and walked in another direction alone, Hou Yong asked me in a low voice: "Battalion commander, do you want to send someone to follow him?" ”
I pondered for a while and said, "No, with his competitive character, he won't just run away, even if he runs, it doesn't matter, our task today is to fight wolves, and other things are not important." ”
Zhai Li ran over from the front and said, "Sir An, my brother is ...... Alas, I'm really too ignorant, and I ask you to bear with me, Sir An. ”
I smiled and shook my head and said, "It's okay, it's understandable to be young and vigorous." As long as he wins Ani, I will definitely honor the preface, even if he loses, if he is not willing to be in the army, I will not force him to stay. ”
Zhai Li: "I thank you for Zhai Meng. ”
Me: "We're our own people now, so don't be so polite...... Zhai Li, you have been active in Damangshan all year round and are very familiar with this area, where do you think wolves will gather? ”
Zhai Li thought for a moment and said: "When the wolf king doesn't appear, these wolves are just three or two, at most five or six gathered together, and they can be seen anywhere, and there is no fixed place. Now that the wolf king has appeared and summoned them to gather, I think they should have a cave to rest. ”
I was a little strange and asked, "Wolves also dig holes?" I always thought that wolves lived in the wilderness. ”
Zhai Li explained: "When the weather is warm, the wolves are like that, they rest wherever they go. Winter is different, they also look for burrows, they rarely dig their own burrows, and generally occupy the burrows of other animals. ”
I sighed, "It seems that these wolves are really born robbers, not only a scourge in the world, but also a scourge in this mountain. ”
I think that the troops are searching with such fanfare, which may make the wolves flee when they hear the news, and the area of the wolf ditch is not small, so they simply split the two platoons and search the hinterland of the wolf ditch in a fan shape with the squad as a unit.
I told them, "Shoot the wolves when you see them, and don't give them a chance to get close." If you hear gunfire everywhere, no matter which group of people, you must rush to support immediately! When searching, keep an eye out for caves, which are most likely their nests. ”
In the next few hours of searching and hunting, we killed seven or eight wolves, and sporadic gunshots rang out everywhere, and many times the wolves were driven from another hunt elsewhere, and from time to time we could see one or two wolves scurrying in our sight.
At noon, there was a long and terrible wolf howl in the wolf ditch, and the two wolves who were still swimming in our sight heard the howl, and immediately turned around and ran away in the direction of the wolf howl.
Zhai Li's face was a little solemn: "Everyone be careful, this is the wolf king summoning wolves!" ”
Because everything was going well before, I didn't pay too much attention to Zhai Li's warning, thinking that even if there were wolves, how many wolves could there be, more than a dozen? More than two dozen?
After crossing a mountain range, we were greeted by a shocking scene, a hundred wolves clustered around a giant blue and white wolf, standing on a hill not far away, looking at us.
"That's the Wolf King! I saw it once a few years ago and almost died! Zhai Li recalled the past, because of fear, his face was a little distorted when he spoke.
The blue-white wolf king took a step forward, which showed off its huge size, which was at least twice as large as the other wolves. The wolf king suddenly raised his head to the sky and roared, and in the long howl, more than a hundred wolves suddenly rushed towards us collectively.
"Shoot! Shoot! ”
I screamed, pulling the trigger first, and the Mauser gun fired in bursts. There were only a dozen rifles in our group, and Tan Weimin was left in the village by me for fear of wolves attacking the village, and only a stunned Zhang Fugui was with me.
I kicked Zhang Fugui and scolded angrily, "What the fuck are you waiting for!" Shoot! ”
It's too late, even if Zhang Fugui shoots at the first time, the battle situation will not change much. The wolves pounced on them almost instantly, and except for a few wolves who had been shot by us, the rest of the wolves did not flinch at all, and rushed forward one after another.
Starting next month, (counter-offensive day) will be maintained at least two shifts per day.
I don't have much experience writing long stories, and the shortcomings of this book abound. Hopefully it will be improved in the newly opened another spy war article!
