Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain
Chapter 136 Victory in the first battle
Chapter 136 Victory in the first battle
Wild boars are not like domestic pigs. Their ears are obviously much smaller, and their skulls are long and narrow, accounting for nearly one-third of their total length. With this body size, it is still difficult to bite the pig’s ears in one bite when several dogs are unable to completely suppress the wild boar.
But Black Wolf has the ability to do this. He can do it in one go, neatly and accurately.
With the joining of the black wolf, the fragile balance of the wild boar and the three hunting dogs was immediately broken. The black wolf weighed nearly 100 kilograms, almost the same weight level as the blue wolf that died in the previous battle. He also learned the method of controlling the pig by biting its ear without any instruction. The four dogs quickly pinned the wild boar there and made it unable to move.
Outside a hill, Yue Feng and Xiao Tao were still running and panting. From the barking of the hunting dogs just now, Yue Feng had preliminarily judged that the dogs had trapped the prey. The two brothers did not have a clear and accurate understanding of the strength of the four hunting dogs, so they did not dare to be lazy at all and tried their best to rush up in the shortest time.
After more than ten minutes, Yue Feng had fallen behind Xiao Tao.
In terms of skills, Yue Feng is far superior to Xiao Tao, but in terms of pure physical strength and leg power, Yue Feng has to admit that Xiao Tao has really good physical fitness. His two long legs are running wildly at the bottom of the ridge, as if they don’t know how to get tired.
Xiao Tao felt relieved only after he rushed to the ridge along the shady side of the mountain and saw the situation at the bottom of the ditch.
“Brother, don’t be too nervous. The four dogs have pinned the pig down there and made a nest! It’s a sow weighing over 200 pounds!”
Hearing the word “sow”, Yue Feng, who was panting, felt relieved.
The dogs that are most vulnerable to injury are male tusks weighing about 300 kilograms. For a tusk of this weight, the fangs sticking out of its mouth have not yet been bent. When the upper and lower tusks are not working, they will rub against each other, grinding the contact surface into a bone blade slope like a dagger.
In this case, the fangs, as sharp as daggers, have a fatal killing power on dogs. It can be said that if they touch them, they will be injured, and if they are touched, they will die. It is truly terrifying.
In comparison, the sow’s lethality is much smaller. At most, she can use her mouth to knock the dog over. As long as the dog is not too unlucky, it will be fine.
In addition, the No. 13 forest area is now a bright place, and it is very easy for the dog to dodge attacks, so the danger is further reduced.
Yue Feng slowed down his pace and slowly climbed up the ridge. Just as Xiao Tao had seen, the four dogs had already pinned the pig there. Apart from its miserable screams, the pig could not move at all.
“Let’s go! Fight quickly!”
Yue Feng took big strides and rushed down the gentle slope on the sunny side, and soon came in front of the dog and the wild boar.
Seeing their owner coming, the four dogs wagged their tails. Yue Feng took off the 56mm half-gun from his shoulder, found an angle that would not hurt the dogs, stepped back seven or eight meters to prevent the gunshot from hurting the dogs’ ears, and pulled the trigger at the top of the wild boar’s head.
With a bang, the wild boar fell to the ground instantly as if struck by lightning.
The sow was completely knocked down and died. The four victorious dogs bit her for a while and then slowly let go of their mouths, and began to shout excitedly.
The dogs haven’t had the chance to go up the mountain to fight much during this period, which has made them feel bored. Now they can run in the forests, chase wild boars when they encounter them, and then have a great fight. The dogs feel very happy, as if all the boredom has been swept away.
“Xiao Tao, drain the pig’s blood, prepare to open the pig’s stomach, take out the pig’s heart and feed it to the dog!”
“Okay! Just watch me!” Xiao Tao responded, took out the knife from his waist, and skillfully cut open the wild boar and drained its blood.
Lift the sow’s hind legs upwards to push the pig’s head down, then use a sharp knife to make a horizontal cut at the pig’s chin and carotid artery, and bright red blood will gush out.
After a while, the pig’s blood was drained out. Xiao Tao turned the wild boar over again and laid it flat. He cut open its belly from top to bottom and then gutted it.
The wild boar’s lantern had not been completely taken down yet when Xiaowen and Xiaowu, who had been following behind with a sled, also arrived at the scene.
“Sure, Brother Feng. This sow is not small, it must be more than 200 pounds! How about these dogs, are they strong enough to work?” Xiaowen asked with concern after taking a few glances.
Yue Feng nodded: “The dogs trained by Chen Pao are very good at their work! When Xiao Tao and I rushed over, the four dogs had already completely controlled the wild boar. We fired with our guns pointed at the wild boar’s forehead. It was very easy!”
“How did the black wolf perform? Where did it bite?”
After Xiaowen asked this, Yue Feng realized that this was the first time that the three dogs, Heilang, Dahuang and others, cooperated in hunting in actual combat, but Yue Feng did not notice any sense of incongruity.
“The first time Black Wolf followed the three dogs to work, he would use the pliers. When we came over, Black Wolf was biting one of the sow’s ears!
Although Xiaohua is usually a little timid, she is not timid at all when beating a pig. She bites the pig head-on with her snout!
The position of the head dog Dahuang’s mouth is on the pad of the left front leg! He is also a smart dog! “
Yue Feng explained the positions and performances of the dogs one by one.
“Black Wolf can use the pliers, so these four dogs are safe! As long as the pigs weighing less than 300 pounds are trapped, they basically can’t escape!” Xiaowen said very confidently.
“What are hanging pliers?” Xiao Tao, who was doing dirty work, was a little curious when he heard this unfamiliar term.
Yue Feng explained: “Hanging the pliers is to bite the pig’s ears. A good dog helper, in addition to being brave, also knows how to subdue the pig! This technique of hanging the pliers is one of the most representative moves!
You saw it just now, one dog bit the pig’s left ear, and the other bit its right ear. After biting the pig to death, the two dogs stood side by side next to the pig’s body! This way, even if the sow struggled, she couldn’t hurt the dogs!
In addition to hanging pliers, the soft meat of the pig’s front leg that Da Huang bites is also a good place. I heard from older hunters that some smart hunting dogs will bite the wild boar’s tendons. As long as they bite accurately, the pig’s leg will immediately collapse and it will take a long time to recover!
In addition to these places, there are also those who dig out the back door, bite the tail, bite the hind legs, etc. Overall, the dog that can hang the pliers is the safest! “
“What about those who use the back door? That’s too insidious!” After listening to Yue Feng’s popular science, Xiao Tao became very curious.
“Don’t mess with a dog that can pick out the back door! This is almost pure talent, and it is not so easy to train! If a dog is very good at picking out the back door, or biting the testicles, it will be easy for a single dog to cooperate with a hunter with a gun to kill a pig weighing several hundred kilograms!”
“Uh, brother, are you kidding me? Even if there really is such a dog, a dog can’t control a wild boar weighing hundreds of pounds!” Xiao Tao shook his head repeatedly after hearing this.
“Who says we have to control the pig? If we just let the pig stay where it is, the hunter will have a chance to shoot!
The dog that was trying to dig out the back door made the pig angry, so the pig dared not to run any further. But the pig could not outrun the dog, so if it ran, the back door would be bitten!
What should I do in this situation? I can only find a place with trees or rocks to cover my buttocks, and wait for the hunter to catch up. Then it will be easy, just aim and shoot him down! “
“Fuck, that seems to be true! It would be great if our dogs could learn this trick! It would save us so much trouble!”
After hearing the new knowledge about dog hunting, Xiao Tao began to look forward to the backdoor hunting dog that Yue Feng mentioned.
While chatting, Xiao Tao did not stop his work. Soon the whole pig’s interior was opened and Xiao Tao easily took out the whole set of pig offal.
Yue Feng walked to the steaming hot water with a knife and gathered the pig heart, lungs and liver together. After cutting the pig heart, Yue Feng pulled out a large piece of meat: “Da Huang, come and eat some meat!!”
When his name was called, Dahuang immediately came over wagging his tail, took the pork heart meat handed to him by Yue Feng, and lay there chewing it in big mouthfuls.
While feeding meat to Dahuang, Yue Feng always focused on the black wolf next to him. Among the four dogs, the black wolf is currently the boss. Yue Feng was afraid that when the time came to divide the meat, the black wolf and Dahuang would fight again over the meat.
However, Yue Feng was overthinking it. The black wolf could tell who was the big and small king. As the master, Yue Feng had the absolute right to dispose of the prey. He gave the pig heart to Dahuang to eat in front of him. Apart from wagging his tail, the black wolf did not show any obvious resistance.
Seeing this, Yue Feng felt much more relieved. He simply cut the remaining pig heart into two halves, fed one half to Dahuang, and left the other half to Heilang.
“Black Wolf, come here!”
Yue Feng greeted him and handed the half-eaten pig heart in his hand to Heilang’s mouth.
Even when eating meat, the black wolf behaved very steadily. He tilted his head back to take the meat from Yue Feng’s hand, and was very careful with his mouth, for fear of accidentally biting his owner again. After taking half of the pig heart, he did not eat it in big mouthfuls like Da Huang, but chewed it slowly. His entire eating behavior was very stable and quiet.
Yue Feng knew that this was the dog’s behavior when it assessed the surrounding environment as extremely safe, which meant that Black Wolf was 100% absolutely confident in his master and the other people in front of him.
Yue Feng was very touched by this display of trust. He felt that his daily care and feeding over the past few days had not been in vain, as the dog now completely regarded himself as its master.
After feeding Dahuang and Heilang, the next ones were Dahei and Xiaohua.
The two dogs worked very hard, and each dog got half of the pig liver and lungs.
After eating the heart, liver and lungs, Yue Feng did not continue to feed the remaining offal. Instead, he cut a few strips of meat from the fattier part under the sow’s belly and gave them to the four dogs.
It was not even ten o’clock in the morning yet. After coming a long way into the mountains, it was impossible for him to catch a pig and then rush back home. Yue Feng did not want to feed the dog until it was full, just so that after a rest, he could let the dog continue searching the mountains to see if he could catch another pig or something.
After the four dogs finished their respective portions, Xiao Tao temporarily tied up the dogs one by one with hemp ropes.
The four brothers had climbed over several ridges and were very tired. They took out their water bottles from their backpacks, drank a little, and sat on the side of the sled to rest.
After resting for about fifteen minutes and catching their breath, Yue Feng was the first to stand up.
“It’s still early, let’s take the dog and look for it again. If we are lucky, we can catch another one!” Yue Feng said.
“Then, what should we do with this cleaned pig? Leave it here first?” Xiaowu asked.
Yue Feng thought about it for a moment and nodded: “Well, let’s put it here first! There won’t be many people coming here! We can still have time to come and get the meat before we go down the mountain!”
“Then listen to Brother Feng and keep going!”
The four brothers stood up, dragged the sled and other belongings they carried with them, took the dog, and temporarily left their resting place.
After reaching the ridge, Yue Feng quickly asked Xiao Tao to spread the rhubarb around.
“Da Huang, whoosh!!”
Although Da Huang was only half full, he was still extremely excited. After receiving the command from his owner, he immediately went into work mode, lowering his head and sniffing around in various places.
Maybe there was less smell information at this ridge location, and Dahuang searched around but didn’t find any valuable smell information, so he quickly chose a south direction and continued to expand the search range radially in a circle.
Yue Feng and a few others followed the dog, keeping the dog within their sight as they moved forward.
After searching aimlessly for about a mile, the originally calm Da Huang suddenly seemed to have made a new discovery. He raised his head and barked several times at Yue Feng and the others, then sped up and chased wildly towards the northwest along the ridge.
“It’s getting wild! Let the dogs loose and chase!” Yue Feng gave an order, and the other three dogs spread out and rushed in the direction of Dahuang’s barking.
……
On the other side, when Yue Feng and his companions followed the big yellow dog to chase new prey, the big black eagle that only knew how to listen to gunshots came again.
The woods here are relatively sparse, and most of them are exposed to the sky, so the black hawk has a strong ability to lock onto the first scene. It just circled in the sky once and then folded its wings and dived down.
A whole wild boar was lying on the ground. It had been gutted and bled out, and the cooled boar entrails were stuffed back into the boar’s cavity.
The big black eagle was a bit picky and used its sharp beak to search through the pig’s offal. Its inky black feathers were stained with a lot of blood and dirt, but it didn’t find any of the wild boar’s heart, liver, lungs and other fresh and tender internal organs that it loved to eat.
After a busy period, the big black eagle gave up searching and turned to focus on the pig’s head.
The two wild boar’s eyes were first pulled out, torn into pieces and swallowed by the big black eagle. Then the big black eagle pecked at the wild boar’s brain along the half-opened hole in the boar’s head.
The eagle was not very satisfied with the ‘tribute to the mountain god’. After being busy for a long time, not much actually went into its stomach. The big black eagle circled the wild boar’s carcass for many times and ate everything it liked. There was only a small bulge in its crop, and it was not even half full. In the end, it took off reluctantly and quickly disappeared in the air.
With the start of the autumn and winter hunting season in Changbai Mountain, this Changbai Mountain street hunter has also ushered in his most pleasant time. He basically repeats this process every day. When he hears the gunshot, he will flap his wings and fly to the scene to take a look. Most of them can get food such as offerings to the mountain god.
The cold winter was raging, and it was obviously a harsh and unbearable season for ordinary mountain creatures. However, the big black eagle had never had to worry about food and clothing thanks to his cleverness and wisdom. He would even be so picky when meat was placed in front of him that he would rather starve than compromise.
……
On the other side, Yue Feng and his four companions were still following Da Huang, running wildly along the mountain ridge.
There is very little vegetation on this ridge, so traveling is relatively easy. Plus, since there is no need to cross ditches or streams, everyone won’t be too tired.
After chasing for two or three miles, Dahuang once again took off, leaving the others and the dog behind.
But this time, it was not as lucky as when it first entered the mountain in the morning.
