Chapter 33 The Choice of Life and Death
The hounds and the wolves were in a mess, and Guo Jiefang was worried that the hounds would suffer, so he jumped on the firewood stack and fired a shot at the wolves. He shot an old white-necked wolf in the chest. The old wolf, as if burned by a red-hot iron, jumped up from the snow, wailed, and fell to the ground!
Guo Jiefang estimated that his shot just now happened to hit the old wolf's heart, so he was able to kill it with one shot. Before he could move his gun and aim again, two giant wolves suddenly burst out of the wolf pack, and they rushed to the dead wolf, bit the dead wolf, and dragged it into the wolf pack! The wolves were stimulated by the smell of blood, and they had long lost their minds, and the wolves in large groups swarmed up, competing to bite the dead wolves, and in the blink of an eye, the dead wolves were torn to pieces······!
Guo Jiefang was shocked by the viciousness of the wolves, and hurriedly asked Lao Liang what was going on? Old Liang sneered and said, we are in trouble today, this is a group of hungry and crazy wolf cubs······!
At this time, the wolf, who was fighting with the hounds, saw that the accomplices already had food in their mouths, but he was fighting with the hounds, so he immediately died down and turned back to fight for the scraps and burned the ······!
Five hounds, covered in blood and scarred, fought and retreated, limping back to the logging site!
Guo Jiefang stood on the firewood stack, looked at the five hunting dogs running towards him from a distance, and suddenly became angry in his heart, and swept out a shuttle of angry bullets at the wolves who were fighting for the corpses. The bullets hailed like hailstones, knocking down several giant wolves. The wolves who were not hit were alarmed by the sound of the guns, wailed one after another, and fled in all directions······!
Seeing that the wolves had fled far away, Guo Jiefang jumped down from the firewood stack and put the five hunting dogs into the yard. Guo Jiefang, who was still recognized by the five hunting dogs, wagged his tail at him as soon as they met, and circled around him!
Guo Jiefang saw these hunting dogs, all of them with open skin and flesh, and blood was dripping, and his heart ached······ Hurriedly take out the gold sore medicine from the house and bandage the wound of the hound!
Niu Jianjun also wanted to come over to help, and as soon as he came to him, he asked "Tu Ge" to pull his teeth back. It is also very strange to say that "Tu Ge" was so hostile to Niu Jianjun when he saw him for the first time, which made Guo Jiefang somewhat surprised······!
Guo Jiefang bandaged the wounds of the hunting dogs, and the Ao brothers also relieved themselves at this time, Guo Jiefang finally figured out the ins and outs of their being chased by wolves from the intermittent narrative between them······ It turned out that a few days ago, they had been shooting big leaves in the area of Lao Ye Ling, which was fifty miles away. By noon, they had already hit two large leaves, both the size of a palm. They were all very happy, thinking that today was really an auspicious day······ If there is such luck in the afternoon, the marriage of the third child can be decided······! Just as the three brothers were hopefully searching for the big leaf in the woods, they ran into a large elk. The elk has a horse-like face and a camel-like body, but its hooves are the hooves of a cow, so it is called the "Four Differences" by the locals.
When the Ao brothers bumped into such a big prey, how could they let it run away? Ao Laosan immediately went to the dog to entangle the elk, and Ao Laosan took the opportunity to shoot the elk in the head with a raised gun. Just as the three brothers were packing up their prey, a vicious wolf suddenly came out of the woods. The evil wolf that came out was not afraid of people at all, and ran straight to the dead deer, and dragged the elk's corpse ······ in front of the three brothers!
The Ao brothers have been hunting all their lives, and they have never seen such a bold wolf, although they were surprised, but they saw that it was just a lone wolf, so they didn't take it to heart. The second child of the Ao family picked up the gun, filled the barrel with gunpowder, put in iron sand and stones, tamped it, aimed at the wolf's head, and blasted half of the wolf's head with just one shot······! Before the wolf could "snort" for a while, it fell straight down to the snow!
The wolf that fell to the ground did not die immediately, but kicked on its hind legs and dug a deep pit in the snow······ Sharp teeth, biting each other "clucking" sound······ It wasn't until the boss of the Ao family made up a shot that it took its last breath······!
Boss Ao felt very unlucky, and wanted to go home, but they didn't think about it, they were just about to pack up their things and go back, when they found that in the woods, suddenly more prey came out one after another, and all of these prey fled ······north like a swarm of bees!
The brothers of the Ao family wondered in their hearts, so they ran into the woods to check. The woods were empty except for the traces of beasts······ So what's going on here? The Ao brothers had a head full of questions, and when they climbed up the old man's ridge, they finally understood the reason for the matter······!
It turned out that behind Lao Ye Ling, a group of black and oppressive wolves swept up like dark clouds, they covered the sky, covering the sky, and I don't know how many, as if they had covered the whole earth with ·····!
The Ao brothers were dumbfounded with fright at that time, they had grown so big, and they had never seen such a big pack of wolves! When they reacted, they remembered to run for their lives······! The three brothers ran down the old man's ridge in a row, found the horses, rode fast horses, took the hounds, and ran for forty or fifty miles in one go. The horses were sweating profusely, foaming at the mouth, and forced on the side of the road. The three of them had to abandon their horses and walk, and when they came to the vicinity of the logging site, they were caught up by the vanguard of the wolves, and they had to fight and retreat······ You've all seen the rest ······!
After listening to the story of the Ao brothers, the big guys were also shocked, only to know that the wolves were not only the ones in front of them, but their large troops were still behind······ Everyone couldn't help but stir up and make noise, and Xiao Shanghai immediately asked to retreat now, and everything would be over if it was too late······!
Old Liang asked the Ao brothers, when will the wolves be able to reach the logging site······?
The Ao brothers guessed that they couldn't say for sure, but there should be still half a day's work······!
At this time, Xiao Shanghai urged Lao Liang Tou'er and said, "Uncle Liang, let's quickly withdraw outside now······ If you hesitate, it's too late······! ”。
Old Liang stroked his goatee and said, "Withdraw? Where to retreat? ”。
Xiao Shanghai was anxious and said, "Allah······ You don't know such a simple question, do you? Of course we are withdrawing in the direction of the regimental headquarters? Allah Lao Tzu didn't believe it······ No matter how powerful the wolves are, do they dare to attack the regimental headquarters directly? Even if the wolves faint and dare to attack the regimental headquarters, then there is no need to be afraid, isn't there still a company of corps soldiers stationed at the regimental headquarters? Discipline these evil wolves and have no ······ to return! ”。
Old Liang's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he didn't say a word.
The brothers of the Ao family took the opportunity to ask the bearded company commander and said, "How many horses do you have?" We can't retreat without horses······! ”。
The bearded company commander snapped his fingers and replied, "Now we only have four horses······ Two of them are still ······ brought by Lao Huang this morning! ”。
The Ao brothers smiled bitterly: "Without horses, how can we retreat outside?" Doesn't that mean going straight to death······ ”。
There was a moment of silence in the cabin, and everyone's hearts were heavy, and everyone knew that they were now facing the harsh test of life and death······ Time is running out for them, and they must make a decision as soon as possible······!
Guo Jiefang, who was standing on the firewood stack and watching the movement of the wolves, suddenly asked Lao Liang, why didn't these wolves retreat? Are they waiting for something?
Old Liang smiled and told Guo Jiefang gloomily that they were waiting for the big army to come up, so that they could wipe us ······out!
As soon as Old Liang Tou'er said this, a panic and uneasiness was added to the ominous silence······!
No one is silent, no one has a good way to save their lives, but staying here is also a dead end, what should we do?
After a long time, Huang Yaju encouraged everyone, she first asked everyone not to panic, all difficulties are paper tigers······ He also said that there were more than a dozen of us, and we still had a dozen guns in our hands······ Even if we can't wipe out the entire wolf pack, we can still do it with our backs to the strong fortress of the logging site, and kill and injure a large number of wolves to stick here······ Speaking of this, Huang Yaju turned her head and asked the bearded company commander to say a few words, and the bearded company commander immediately spoke impassionedly, to the effect that it is impossible to withdraw if you retreat outside now, even if you forcibly break through, it is likely to lead the wolves to the regiment headquarters and cause greater losses to the regiment······ Therefore, the only option for us now is to stay here and delay the wolves as much as possible to prevent the wolves from moving in the direction of the regimental headquarters······!
Huang Yaju nodded and said, "I agree with Company Commander He's opinion······ We must not lead the waters of evil······ Be sure to nail it like a nail, firmly nail here, and resolutely drag the wolves to ······! ”。
Guo Jiefang's blood was spurting, his fists were clenched, and he shouted loudly: "Let's fight with them ······!" ”。
Niu Jianjun also shouted: "Yes, let's slaughter one of them is enough, and slaughter a pair to earn one······ Nothing to be afraid of······! ”。
Lao Liang Tou'er silently took out the cigarette bag and pot, lit a bag of tobacco leaves, and said slowly: "We have to fight with them, and we can't fight blindly······ I guess······ We should take advantage of the favorable terrain, use our brains, and try our best to kill and injure the living forces of the wolves, so that we can fight the wolves more effectively and save our own ······! ”。
The bearded company commander's eyes lit up and said, "Yes, Jiu Mengzi is right. We can't huddle in the cabin and be beaten passively, we have to do everything we can to keep the wolves out······ It's best to resist one by one, gradually depleting the wolves, so that they bite us and have to break off a few front teeth ······! ”。
Inspired by the old Liang Tou and the bearded company commander, the group finally decided to dig a trench around the logging site. Lay hay and pour kerosene on the inside of the trenches. Then the Ao brothers were in the courtyard, laying traps and erecting mechanisms. Everyone is ready to have a vigorous show of burning wolves······!
