On the evening of the third day, when the large army arrived one after another, the continuous light rain also stopped.

Prior to this, Hongxia'er led everyone to hunt enough prey in the wild, including deer, cows, sheep, chickens and ducks, live and dead, the living were kept in captivity, the dead were roasted, and enough food was prepared, waiting for the arrival of the large army.

As soon as the army arrived, they immediately began to eat, and the water to drink was readily available, and they lived by the river.

After eating, Hongxia'er gathered everyone to assign tasks.

Now Hongxia'er has decided to adopt the tactic of "drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle" - setting fire to the mountain.

Around the location of the cave where the leopard lived in the big mountain, she drew a circle with small pebbles on the schematic diagram on the ground, indicating that the fire began at the foot of the big mountain.

There is a lot of dry firewood in the mountains, so everyone needs to use local materials. Due to the northwesterly winds, it is possible to set fire farther away from the northwest foot of the Leopard Cave and closer to it to the southeast.

However, due to the continuous spring rains, most of the dry firewood in the mountains and forests is wet by the rain and is not easy to burn, so the main task of everyone tonight is to find as much dry firewood as possible and dry it for tomorrow night's burning of the mountains for use.

Because it was found that leopards would not come out at night, it was decided to start the official operation tomorrow night.

After assigning the task, Hongxia'er asked everyone to go to the neighborhood to find some dry firewood, which was wet by the rain, and could be dried by fire, and everyone immediately went their separate ways.

Everyone worked together to find a lot of branches and firewood, and built a dozen bonfires to dry the wet wood. After almost an all-nighter and gathering enough dried firewood, it was dawn and everyone fell asleep after breakfast.

By the time everyone woke up, the sun was about to set.

So after dinner, everyone gathered and prepared to go.

At this time, after checking the necessary items such as the flint and steel prepared by everyone and the dry firewood baked last night, Hong Xia'er gave the order to set off.

The paparazzi tied dry firewood to their backs with vines or hemp rope and carefully crossed the creek into the woods on the opposite bank.

After two hours, the large army surrounded the big mountain peak, and every thirty or forty meters a dog or fox began to unload dry firewood, most of the dogs turned around and bit the vines themselves, and a small part relied on foxes to bite the vines.

Then, dozens of foxes were in charge of lighting fires, and slowly burned around the foot of the big mountain, more than 200 places.

The paparazzi and the foxes then took dry firewood from other places wet with the rain and threw it into the fire.

In this way, the fire burned bigger and bigger, and by the time dawn the foot of the mountain was full of fire and smoke.

In the evening, the fire was almost burning to the mountainside, and at this moment, the cry of the leopard ghost crying wolf came from the top of the mountain, and it was estimated that the leopard had realized that the catastrophe was coming but was helpless, and the expression of anger, anxiety, pain and helplessness was fully revealed.

The fire burned for two days and two nights before reaching the top of the mountain.

During this period, although the spring rain was continuous, it was very small, and it came and went, and when the fire reached the top of the mountain, the rain began to fall more and more densely, and finally the forest fire was extinguished.

God is so cute, he actually let Hongxia'er's task of burning the mountain just complete.

Hongxia'er burned the mountain for two purposes, one was to burn the leopard to death; The second is that the front mountainside plain burns up the trees and turns them into fertile fields (primitive humans do this, called "slash and burn"), and the burning of trees in the back mountains is conducive to expanding the field of vision to prevent the sneak attack of wild beasts.

When the downpour doused the wildfires, Hongxia ordered the young, strong, and combative paparazzi to rush into the leopard hole to see if the leopard was still alive.

When the heroic paparazzi rushed into the leopard hole, they found that all five leopards of different sizes were there, two large leopards were burned or blackened and had long since died, one slightly larger leopard was burned red and oily, and two small leopards were fainted by smoke and fire in the innermost part.

These five hapless leopards became a ready-made delicacy for the ferocious wild dogs who rushed in.

Soon it was divided by the paparazzi and there was not a single hair left, and those paparazzi who came late only had a look.

Next, Hongxia'er is about to start the second task: large-scale production and military training.

When the rain stopped, she ordered the foxes and dogs, who had seeds of plants (purple potatoes and peanuts) on them, to start planting seeds on the mountainside plains where the fires had destroyed the forest.

And sent two fast-legged paparazzi members to run back to the base camp immediately, so that all the tribes and even their belongings moved to this new base camp, and she also asked the red-haired father to use the knife in his hand to make more than a dozen bamboo baskets for transporting soil.

It's true: there are many dogs with great strength, and there are many ways to do foxes.

In less than two months, a row of more than 40 cat holes with a width of two meters, a height of one meter and six meters, and a depth of eight meters were dug on the main peak of the big mountain peak, which served as a collective dormitory for dogs and foxes, and each hole housed 10 to 15 dogs or foxes. In front of these holes, a two-meter-wide corridor was formed, and the foxes had installed a railing on it, but beyond the railing was a cliff face one or twenty meters deep.

In addition, the original leopard cave at the peak of the mountain has been enlarged and renovated to become the residence of Hongxia'er for work, living and meetings, with a large living room as a meeting room, an office, two bedrooms (one for her and one for the red-haired father) and two miscellaneous rooms.

A row of eight holes was dug more than a dozen meters below the hole, about the size of a dog and fox dormitory, which served as accommodation for guards, cooks, and life logistics services.

And the small plains on the mountainside are full of well-grown crops, and traps are laid in some weak points of defense, and some markings are also made to prevent their own "people" from breaking into it by mistake. In addition, at the foot of the mountain, a trench more than two meters wide, one meter five deep and five hundred meters long was dug.

After large-scale production, there will inevitably be large-scale military training.

Hongxia'er demanded that all dogs and foxes participate, and that no one was allowed to have any privileges, including herself.
