Forest Farm 1985: Raise a bear cub to climb the mountain

Chapter 227: The Red Dog's Trap and Killing (Two in One)

In his previous life, when Dai Song started hunting in the mountains,

The number of red dogs is already very small, and he has never seen a living one.

Now, after a day's trek, the group passed between forest ranges 70 and 71, and just as they left the Zhazi Forest Farm, they encountered one.

Red poodles are social animals, and seeing one means there must be a group of them hiding around.

Thinking of this, Dai Song's sleepiness disappeared.

Don't be fooled by the red dog's short body and legs. In terms of ferocity, it is far more ferocious than the Soviet wolf, as can be seen from the words "jackal, tiger and leopard".

Dai Song remembered that when Li Qinghai in his previous life said, "When a tiger sees a jackal, it will retreat three feet away," he was a little skeptical.
As a result, the old man patiently compared the jackal with other ferocious beasts;

The first to be hit are wolves.

Wolves have long front legs and short hind legs. They have great endurance and are extremely good at biting. The Suma wolf is the best.

The most important thing is that wolves hunt in groups and cooperate closely with each other. Once the wolves surround the prey from all sides and pounce on it together, they can hold the prey firmly with their weight alone.

As the old saying goes, a good tiger cannot fight against a pack of wolves. This is exactly what it means.

The body structure of the jackal is exactly the opposite of that of the wolf.

This thing has short front legs, long hind legs and a light body. The largest one weighs only about 40 or 50 kilograms, and it can only reach this weight during the autumn when it is gaining weight. Normally, it can weigh about 30 kilograms at most.

Although such physical conditions do not allow jackals to use their bodies to overwhelm their prey like wolves, they give jackals excellent jumping abilities.

Like the time when Dai Song led two Yongli Village militiamen to hunt wolves in the forest, the Sumao wolves pounced on them from all around.

Dai Song clearly remembered that although the Su-mao wolf's four claws were in the air, they were only about one meter off the ground at most.

As for jackals, they can jump more than two meters high with just a little leap.

If it is a running start or a relay, they can jump about two and a half meters high, and some strong individuals can even jump three meters high.

Being able to reach this height means that the jackal does not need to bite the prey's body, but can instead directly attack the prey's vulnerable head.

Not to mention the big red deer with a shoulder height of 1.5 meters and a head height of about 2 meters.
Even an adult bear that is nearly three meters tall when standing up has to be on guard against attacks on the head when facing a jackal.

After comparing with the wolf, the old man compared the mountain god with the jackal.

However, Li Qinghai did not analyze the tiger's physical condition in detail at that time, but explained the situation directly:

Jackals, like wolves, are social animals, but one difference is that a wolf pack usually consists of fifteen or sixteen individuals at most.

A pack of a dozen jackals can only be considered as "just starting out", while a larger pack can reach a size of thirty jackals.

The reason why the jackal pack can grow to such a large size and return home on time is that the jackals are small in size and consume less food.

When hunting the same group of roe deer, a pack of a dozen wolves can only eat two or three meals at most, while a pack of jackals can last longer with more mouths to open.

Therefore, the sheer number of them was enough to overwhelm the mountain god.
Not to mention that this thing was attacking its head, eyes and nose from all directions.

As for leopards, let alone them.

Leopards are called little tigers in Northeast China.

If the real mountain god encounters a pack of jackals, he has to take a detour. If a little tiger encounters a pack of jackals and is chased by them, he will surely die.

The danger of jackals lies not only in their courage to confront ferocious beasts, but also in their cunning.

This is clearly demonstrated by everything that is happening before our eyes.

In the woods, the red dog was seen leaning forward slightly to wait for the flower mushroom. Its teeth were slightly bared, but judging from the flower mushroom's tail that was about to break, the red dog's expression was not one of intimidation, but more of a seductive smile.

As for the flower mushroom, it took cheerful little steps and circled around the red dog again and again.

At first it was quite wary and always kept a distance from the red dog.

But as the red dog continued to show "friendliness", the flower mushroom, unaware of the dangers of the forest, gradually relaxed its vigilance, opened its mouth, lowered its head and moved closer to the red dog, saying "Ha~ha~".

The flower mushroom's movements were not very fast. Facing the wild smell emanating from the red dog, it still maintained a basic level of vigilance.

But just when it was about to get close to the red dog's nose, the red dog shyly turned its body away, took a big step back, then raised its butt again, lay forward, and even imitated the flower mushroom, slightly raising its tail and swaying it from side to side.

Faced with the seductive look of the female red dog, Huagu couldn't resist at all and immediately moved forward with his tongue tilted.

Although hunting dogs are loyal, they are like this when facing unfamiliar animals.

They have no sense of crisis at all and may even be driven by curiosity and fall into the other party's trap.

Dai Song was worried about Huagu, and was afraid that waking up Dai Bo and Jiang Haohan would cause some noise and alarm the red dog.

He raised his gun and aimed directly, but was stopped by Li Qinghai.

"What's wrong, Li Pao?" Dai Song didn't dare to speak loudly. "If you let that red dog seduce Huagu again and go deeper into the forest, Huagu will definitely be destroyed by the red dog group!"

Li Qinghai's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this, as if he was surprised by Dai Song's knowledge, but soon his eyes returned to their previous calmness and sharpness. He twitched his beard slightly and said,
“Dai Song, you can’t shoot now.

Once you kill the female jackal, be prepared to destroy the entire pack.

Jackals are more vindictive than wolves, and we don't know how many jackals there are in this group. If we let a few escape, the road ahead will be difficult. At that time, even if everyone takes turns to keep watch, we may not be able to guarantee safety!"

Dai Song frowned slightly, "What should we do? Huagu is the only offspring of your dog."

"Don't be impatient." Li Qinghai pressed down Dai Song's gun, "The jackal has short front legs, so it can't run as fast as the mushroom in the snow.

After all, this birch forest is not an oak forest, and the snow around it is flat, with no snow hills.

Even if the jackals lie in ambush, they can't get so close that the flower mushroom can't react. At that time, we just need to cover the flower mushroom and it will definitely retreat.

Look at that female jackal. It must weigh at least 35 kilograms. An ordinary female jackal would not be that heavy."

Dai Song blinked his eyes, secretly cursing the old man for being so careless that he was willing to take the risk of the mushroom, but he still asked,

"If it's not an ordinary female jackal, then what else could it be? It can't be a great immortal, right?"

Although Dai Song's words were somewhat sarcastic, Li Qinghai didn't care at all.
His gaze fell on the distant woods, and he whispered,

"A jackal pack is led by a mother and son. The jackal king leads the pack, while the jackal mother leads the jackal king.

Whenever hunting large wild animals, it is the jackal king who leads his pack of jackals.

But if it is dealing with a lone beast, let alone a hunting dog, even a wolf, a badger, or even a fool could fall into its trap. "

Dai Song was shocked when he heard this. Li Qinghai had never told him these things in his previous life. In his previous life, Li Qinghai only told him a story about a young hunter whose dog gang was led into a pit by a female jackal and then torn apart by the jackal pack.

He could understand that the dog was "seduced" by the female jackal, but Dai Song thought it was nonsense to say that the badger and even Erhan could not resist the female jackal's teasing.

But Dai Song was worried about the mushrooms and didn't have time to think about it, so he asked immediately,
"So, Lao Li Pao, do you mean to wait for Hua Mushroom to lure out all the jackals before attacking them?"

Li Qinghai nodded.

Dai Song thought about it and felt that this was the only way to solve the problem once and for all, so he patted Li Qinghai on the shoulder and asked him to keep his eyes on the flower mushrooms in the distance.
He then crouched down and crawled into the shacks of Dai Bai and Jiang Haohan, covered their mouths and woke them up.

When the two heard that there were red dogs causing trouble around the shack and that they might have eaten flower mushrooms, they immediately became alert.

Jiang Haohan didn't even have time to change into his pajamas and just crawled out of the shack.

After waking up the two, Dai Song went to call Erhan.

I don't know if the little fat bear was sleeping too soundly or if it smelled Dai Song's scent, but no matter how Dai Song pushed Erhan, Erhan wouldn't get up. He still lay sprawled in the shack, not moving at all.

Helplessly, Dai Song had to put his hands in the snow to cool them down, then grabbed Erhan's mouth with one hand and reached into Erhan's dick with the other hand...

At this moment, the little bear sat up directly from the ground, its little eyes full of fear rolling around, until Dai Song grabbed its mouth and turned its face towards him. Erhan then blinked his frightened little eyes, and his emotions gradually stabilized. He stretched out a paw and kept pushing Dai Song's chest gently, as if he was in a bad mood, and his nose was "whooshing" and blowing air out of it.

"Hush..." Dai Song hurriedly stopped Erhan from getting mad at him.

He immediately hugged Erhan's neck, comforted him, told him to be quiet, and then dragged him out of the shack. In fact, he also wanted to see if Erhan would be interested in the red dog.

But when Erhan followed Daisong and tiptoed to the edge of the camp, Daisong discovered that he had overlooked a crucial point - Erhan was nearsighted.

It was pitch black at this moment, and they could only barely see the scene over the flower mushroom in the distance with the light of the campfire, not to mention Erhan.

Not only did Erhan have a very bad eye, but the wind was also tailwind at the moment, so Erhan could only sit stupidly at Dai Song's feet.

He was picking his feet out of boredom and rubbing the boogers around his eyes, having no idea what those people were studying in the forest.

At this moment, Li Qinghai, who had remained silent, suddenly raised his gun.

Without him saying anything more, Dai Song immediately focused his attention on the forest.
At this moment, Huagu had followed the female red dog to an old birch tube.

This old birch tube is actually the outermost circle of birch bark left after the birch tree dies and the inner wood is hollowed out by insects.

Because the surface of birch trees peels off layer by layer, is rich in oil, and has a very good thermal insulation effect, many animals choose to hide in them to avoid the cold winter, even including several deadly venomous snakes in the Northeast.

The female red dog, which had been very affectionate towards Erhan, showed its ferocious side in an instant. It suddenly jumped up, roared, and started to bite Huagu's head. There was no trace of its original obedience.

At this point, a whistle was heard through the forest, followed by Dai Song's shout.

"Huamu! Come back soon!"

"Woof woof..." The mushroom, who was originally a little panicked, instantly calmed down after hearing the whistle and the call of his owner.

Facing the female red dog attacking it, it twisted its slender waist and kicked its hind legs hard.

The snow beneath my feet suddenly exploded.

Almost instantly, Erhan had opened up two spaces between him and Muhong Gouzi.

at the same time.

The old birch tube began to vibrate regularly, and then Dai Song and his companions saw red pupae continuously coming out of it and running towards the flower mushroom.

The old birch tree looked about two meters long, and the part exposed on the snow was only about twenty centimeters wide at most.
But in the blink of an eye, no less than ten red dogs came out from inside, and judging from their "endless" posture, there were still quite a few hidden inside.

Dai Bai and Jiang Haohan were completely confused, and the light was dim and they couldn't see clearly, so they were afraid to shoot for a while.

It was also the first time that Dai Song had attracted the attention of the Red Dog. He was afraid that he might shoot at the wrong time and something bad might happen, so he quickly looked at Li Qinghai who was standing beside him.

It was the moment he looked at Li Qinghai.

The old man pulled the trigger.

Flames spurted out of the muzzle of the gun, and Dai Song seemed to see a short, dim yellow line shooting out from it.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of gunfire spread out, echoing around the camp, and the head of the red dog closest to the mushroom in the distance exploded instantly.

"Find the right angle! Shoot!"

Li Qinghai paused slightly and reminded everyone.

Dai Bai and Jiang Haohan reacted immediately, shining their flashlights towards the forest and continuously pulling the trigger.

Erhan was also startled by the gunshot. He quickly climbed out of the snow, raised his head, and sniffed the air around him.
Then it seemed to realize that it could not smell anything, so it had to stand up and roar towards the distant forest.

"Erhan! Just stay here and wait for Huagu to come back!"

Dai Song raised his gun, gave Erhan a few instructions, and then fired continuously with the help of the flashlight.

Under the light of the flashlight, the red dogs looked like red ghosts shuttling through the forest.

Dai Bai and Jiang Haohan's hands were both shattered to pieces.

It was fine to shoot at fixed targets or slow targets, but when faced with prey at this speed, he was at a loss. All the bullets he fired fell behind the red dog without exception.

Every time a gun was fired, large flakes of snow would explode on the snow.

Therefore, the real killing depends entirely on Dai Song and Li Qinghai.

Dai Song used a 16-gauge rifle very quickly, firing and reloading in one go.
He had a technique for calculating the lead time when hunting high-speed prey, which was to straighten the finger holding the gun and use it as the aim.
For example, when the red dog chased the flower mushroom from right to left, Dai Song would hold his left hand forward with his thumb raised.
In this way, the rear sight, thumb, and red dog are in a straight line.
When the tip of the red dog's nose appears at the top of your thumb, pull the trigger and the bullet will surely penetrate the red dog's skull.

If it is from right to left, the index finger is used as the "crosshair". According to the speed of the prey, different deflection angles can be formed by adjusting the position of the gun. The faster the prey is, the larger the deflection angle is required, and the shorter the distance between the gun holder and the rear sight, and vice versa.

In just two or three breaths, Dai Song killed three red dogs.

Although the old man was old, his grip was extremely steady. Almost every time he fired a shot, a red dog would fall to the ground.

By the time Huagu safely ran to the camp and squeezed between Daisong and Erhan to be bullied, nearly ten red dogs were already lying on the snow in the distance.

If it were the Sumao wolves, faced with such losses, the remaining wolves would have fled in all directions long ago.

But Red Dog is not like that.

The rest of the red dogs gathered into a large group and rushed up without hesitation. Almost in an instant, they were ten meters away from the camp.

Seeing this, Dai Song quickly kicked away the mushroom that was clinging to his feet, and at the same time, he lightly kicked Erhan's buttocks.
"Stupid! Stop standing there like an idiot! Hurry up!"
