Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain

Chapter 207 Zhu Erhai’s Dog Gang

Chapter 207 Zhu Erhai’s Dog Gang
Earlier, Wang Junqiang’s grandfather’s old sleeve was used to fight a bear, and Zhu Erhai’s brother was injured. At that time, this guy was quiet for a while.

But Zhu Erhai did not give up on going up the mountain to hunt.

Recently, the Yuefeng hunting team has been hauling back home blind bears, wild boars, roe deer and other large animals, which has made Zhu Erhai very greedy.

But, I have a poor financial situation and my family doesn’t give me any money, so it’s useless to be envious.

Now he found the opportunity and teamed up with Hu Xiaoli to trick Wang Musheng and Zhou Xiaobao. Zhu Erhai got a share of the money. When the five dogs arrived home, Zhu Erhai immediately became restless.

Dog hunting is a hunting method with a relatively low threshold, especially when the dog in hand is a finished product and ready to work, the requirements for the hunter are even lower.

Many times, when people catch up, the dogs have already pinned the wild boars in their dens. The hunters are brave and have a knife in their hands, which can end the battle. If you don’t fight bears or something, with a dog as a helper, you don’t rely on guns a lot.

The recent round of heavy snow has made Zhu Erhai very depressed. He waited patiently at home for the weather to warm up. Zhu Erhai immediately went to find his old teammates Wang Xiaonian and Wang Junqiang, and the trio went up the mountain again with their five dogs.

As mentioned more than once before, it snowed heavily, which is actually not very friendly to dogs. The newly fallen snow has not frozen solid yet, and the dogs can’t hold their feet at all. They can only chase prey in the snow, with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Not only is their speed greatly reduced, but if they really encounter a wild boar or something, their speed will be greatly affected in a head-on confrontation, and they can easily get injured or even killed.

However, the high-spirited Zhu Erhai did not understand the details of the dog-beating enclosure. He only knew that the five dogs he bought were famous in the nearby villages for their good work.

Now that I can finally go up the mountain, I will definitely have a good time, catch more wild boars and other things, and recover the investment in buying hunting dogs as soon as possible. When I have saved enough money, I will definitely buy a hunting rifle.

Near the No. 17 forest area, Zhu Erhai was wearing a sheepskin coat with a plain outer layer and a furry inner layer, and a dog-skin hat on his head. He was accompanied by his right-hand men, Wang Xiaonian and Wang Junqiang.

Three men, a gun, and five hunting dogs that had just recognized their master a few days ago, walked into the forest with one step deep and one step shallow.

“Brother Erhai! The new snow is quite deep! Isn’t it a bit too early for us to go up the mountain now?”

Wang Xiaonian discovered this problem not long after he went up the mountain. Even though he had tied up his cotton trousers in advance, a lot of snow foam still filled his cotton shoes, making it quite difficult to walk on the road.

“What do you know! There is new snow, so there must be new tracks! We have five dogs with us now. Bailong is a top dog. As long as he encounters a wild boar, he will definitely be able to track it down!
Yes, it’s a little difficult to chase, but it’s difficult for us, and it’s difficult for the wild boar too! When you kill the boar, you can put away your caution!

Come, White Dragon, come here!”

As he spoke, Zhu Erhai called the head dog Bailong to his side.

This is a white dog that is a cross between a Northeastern native hunting dog and a Mengxi. It has a very good body shape, with some Mengxi details on its head and face, and looks very smart.

When Bailong heard the greeting from his new master, he immediately walked up to him and wagged his tail.

“This dog is so smart! Go White Dragon and see if there’s anything fishy around!”

Zhu Erhai touched Bailong’s head. The dog understood the greeting and immediately started searching for the smell around.

The other four dogs were also combat-hardened hunting dogs. Just from the old scars on their fur on their shoulders, faces, flanks and other parts, one could tell that these dogs were of good quality and had fought in serious battles.

Today, Zhu Erhai and his dog gang led the team up the mountain for the first time. Their luck was pretty good. Bai Long, the dogs and the hunters searched for less than an hour and quickly locked onto a scent.

Wang Wang Wang!
The white dragon barked, sending a signal to its master, and then immediately followed the scent.

Hearing the noise, Zhu Erhai quickly rushed to the place where Gouzi was just now with his two generals Heng and Ha.

The three of them looked carefully and found that in addition to the footprints left by the dog, there were also obvious traces left by a group of wild boars passing by.

“I told you, look, it just snowed, the traces are fresh! The dog has already recognized her, let’s hurry up and follow her!”

Zhu Erhai was very excited when he saw the wild boars’ footprints. He felt so confident that he seemed to have dragged the wild boars back home.

“Come on, let’s go after it! Catch up with it as soon as possible, and don’t let the pig hurt the dog!”

“Don’t worry, when I bought these dogs, Sun Paotou told me that with these five dogs, even a single 300-jin Paodan would have no problem fighting!
We just need to follow the footprints and walk at a leisurely pace. No matter how fast we chase, the dog needs to find a nest for the pig before it can take our turn! “

There is nothing wrong with what Zhu Erhai said. In the dog-beating camp, the main force is dogs, not people.

When hunting wild animals such as wild boars, hounds mainly engage in mobile warfare, constantly harassing and chasing the prey to exhaust its energy. When the prey is exhausted, the dogs will rush forward and hold the prey there, waiting for their owner to hand over a knife to end the fight.

So, the three of them followed the footprints on the snow and slowly chased after them.

After crossing two ridges in a row, Wang Xiaonian was the first to hear the dog barking.

“We should have a nest up ahead, listen!”

“Yes! The dog’s barking sound is different, it has definitely settled down! Junqiang, give me the gun!”

“Hey!” Wang Junqiang immediately handed the gun to the captain Zhu Erhai. The three of them accelerated their pursuit, moving deep and shallow in the snow, and after passing through a pine forest, they saw their own pack of dogs.

Wow, five dogs caught a two-year-old sow weighing 170 to 180 kilograms. Some of them used pliers to hold the wild boar, while others bit the pig’s mouth. The five dogs pinned the wild boar there firmly and made it unable to move.

“Look, what do you think? Am I right? Sun Paotou’s dogs are famous in the surrounding area, no worse than those dogs Yue Feng has!” Zhu Erhai led the pack of dogs up the mountain and won the first battle. He became more confident in his heart.

“Awesome! This dog looks powerful. With one hanging on each ear, it captured the sow alive! In this situation, there’s no need to use a gun. Just use a knife and end the fight with one sword!” Most of Wang Junqiang’s attention was on Zhu Erhai’s gun.

Zhu Erhai agreed with what he thought. The five dogs pinned the pigs there so that they could not move. There was no need to use the gun. Moreover, shooting at a very close distance would not only easily injure the dogs, but might also deafen the hounds’ ears.

Zhu Erhai had just spent a lot of money to buy a hunting dog, so he was reluctant to let it cause harm when it was unnecessary.

“You’re right. Give me the knife and I’ll show you how to kill with one blow!” As he spoke, Zhu Erhai returned the gun to Wang Junqiang and took the stabbed knife from Wang Xiaonian.

He strode towards the wild boar with the knife in hand. The wild boar saw the man coming and started to struggle and scream, but despite all its efforts, it still could not break free from the dog’s restraints.

Zhu Erhai had seen the old hunter finish off a pig before, so he knew where to kill. He held the knife, aimed at the armpit area under the wild boar’s front leg, and stabbed it.

With one cut, the tip of the knife pierced through the boar’s chest and lungs, and the boar’s struggling movements immediately slowed down. Blood foam flowed out of the pig’s nose and wound.

Seeing that his attack was successful, Zhu Erhai pulled out his knife, thrust it down again, and stabbed it for the second time.

This time it was not as perfect as the previous one. The blade got stuck in the gap between the wild boar’s ribs and only went in half.

“Oh my god, the bone is stuck. I’ll make you get stuck with the knife!”

The excited Zhu Erhai grasped the wooden pole with both hands, gritted his teeth, and with a ferocious look on his face, he turned the knife handle half a circle on the pig’s side ribs.

Without the obstruction of the ribs, the knife was once again completely inserted into the wild boar’s body.

After two consecutive stabs in the vital parts, the wild boar soon began to breathe in more than out.

“Xiao Nian, Jun Qiang, come here and gut the pig! We’re done!”

“Hey!” The two brothers behind him came over immediately.

The wild boar, which weighed less than 200 kilograms in total, was relatively easy to handle. Wang Xiaonian pulled back the handle of the knife, picked up the wild boar’s legs and turned the pig over. He then bled and gutted the pig quite skillfully. After a long time of work, he finally took out the wild boar’s internal organs.

“The wild boar’s stomach is valuable, so let’s save it. The pig’s heart is also delicious, so let’s save that too! The pig’s lungs, liver, and offal can be fed to the dogs!” Zhu Erhai reminded Wang Xiaonian, who was doing the butchering, very stingily.

Following the captain’s request, Wang Xiaonian took out the pig’s heart and stomach, and put the rest of the internal organs aside.

“Brother Erhai, you are the captain, you feed the dog!”

“Give it to me!” Zhu Erhai immediately took the knife.

There are five dogs in total, and eating only pig livers, lungs and other internal organs is not enough to fill their stomachs.

Zhu Erhai gave it to the head dog Bailong first, and then fed the other four dogs in turn.

The internal organs that were convenient for feeding the dog were all divided up, and the dog was not even half full. The intestines and other things had a strong smell, and the dog sniffed them but refused to eat them.

“Dogs don’t eat pig intestines, and each dog doesn’t get much. Otherwise, how about cutting some pork belly bottoms to feed them?” Wang Xiaonian reminded.

Zhu Erhai waved his hand: “No need, these are all fat, take them back for oil! Gouzi will eat so much first, and when he is full, he won’t work anymore!
We have had a great start today, and we will continue to chase the remaining wild boars! There are already traces on the snow, so we won’t lose them! When we catch the second boar, the dog should be able to eat most of it, and we can feed the rest when we get home!”

If Sun Paotou, who sold the dog to him, knew about Zhu Erhai’s almost Grandet-like behavior, he would insist on taking the dog back.

When the dogs go into the mountains and catch prey, they are the first to eat it. This is what they earn at the cost of their lives.

Even if you plan to continue hunting later, you have to feed it at least 50% full. It has been three or four hours since you left home, and the dog food you fed it in the morning has been almost digested.

Wang Xiaonian also felt that it was a bit inappropriate for Zhu Erhai to feed the dog in this way, but he knew his position and it was enough to just mention it. The dog was someone else’s and saying too much would annoy people, so he simply kept his mouth shut.

After feeding the dogs with a few bites, the five dogs were still not full. They whined and were unwilling to move. When they followed their original owner, they would eat the meat first every time they caught prey. If there was no subsequent mountain search plan that day, Sun Paotou would feed the dogs as much as they ate, and he would not stop feeding the dogs until the dogs stopped eating.

These five good dogs followed Zhu Erhai and suffered a great sin.
