BXBX NOVEL Chapter 88: herd of wild boars
At the moment when someone asked about it, Xu Shiyan didn\'t feel embarrassed, so he just said what he thought.
"The captains of several hunting teams, each took two people with me, we have to go and circle first."
You must first find out the current location of the wild boar herd and how big the herd is before you can make a hunting plan.
I don’t know anything now, so it’s useless to just talk about it here.
Xu Shiyan is the captain elected by the big guys, and most people know about him.
Moreover, Xu Shiyan\'s arrangement was reasonable, and no one else could find fault with it.
So the captains of each team led their people and followed Xu Shiyan into the mountain to investigate the situation.
Xu Shiyan judged the general direction based on the habits of wild boars and the footprints he saw in the woods that day.
Everyone set off from Xigang Commune and headed west all the way.
After crossing the Stone River, I saw a large area of wild boar footprints, covering the entire hillside. It seemed that the scale was larger than what Xu Shiyan saw before.
"There are big guys in this group of pigs." Xu Shiyan looked at the hoof prints on the ground, some of which were as big as the mouth of a bowl.
This pig is probably not small, not to mention a thousand catties, seven or eight hundred catties can\'t run away.
"Captain Xu, where are we going to chase now?"
When they first came out, the other captains were somewhat unconvinced. After seeing the footprints all over the mountain, they had nothing else to say.
"Go, continue to follow, this is the footprint left by yesterday, I guess the group of pigs should be near Bajianfang today."
Experienced hunters can infer the time when the prey passed by from the footprints and excrement left by wild boars on the ground.
Thus roughly judging where the group of pigs can be found next.
Bajianfang is a place name.
Before the Tun was built, there were four peasant households who built eight houses to live here, so after the Tun was built, it was called the Eight Houses.
There are about forty families here, under the jurisdiction of Dongling Brigade.
Just five or six miles south of Bajianfang, there is a large piece of walnut catalpa, also known as hickory forest.
There is nothing to eat at this time of year, and wild boars are probably looking for pecans to eat in the snow in the walnut forest.
Xu Shiyan had a judgment in his heart, so he was not in a hurry to approach the walnut catalpa forest.
Instead, he led people around the forest in a big circle. Sure enough, only wild boars entered the forest, but there was no sign of them leaving the forest.
"Come on, let\'s go in quietly. No one should shoot rashly. If those pigs are disturbed, it will be difficult to fight if they break up."
Xu Shiyan instructed everyone, and led them into the forest.
In this season, the snow on the mountain has been deposited for a whole winter, with a hard cover on the top, and the bottom is like sand.
When people step on it, it doesn\'t creak like new snow, but it feels like stepping on the sand, making a swishing sound.
The sound was not loud and could easily be covered by the howling wind in the forest. This was an excellent opportunity. Everyone walked forward cautiously, trying not to make any noise.
This piece of walnut catalpa forest is very large, and there is a big ditch pond at the bottom, and at the moment, the group of wild boars are under the big ditch pond, constantly arching the snow, looking for hickory nuts from the snow.
Everyone looked down from the uphill **** of the ditch pond, and saw a large area underneath, all of which were wild boars.
It’s a little far away, and the wild boars keep arching the snow. The arched snow is blown up by the wind, which is almost like fog, and the sight is blocked, so it’s not so clear.
Looking vaguely, there are hundreds of pigs at least, and there seems to be a big guy among the pigs.
Xu Shiyan gestured towards the crowd, and the group quietly withdrew from the walnut forest without daring to make any noise.
"Let\'s go, let\'s go back quickly, early tomorrow morning, bring people over, surround this area and fight directly."
After leaving the forest, Xu Shiyan spoke.
It’s already afternoon, and the west **** of the ditch pond is sunny. The pigs must rest in this forest tonight, and they will continue to move forward tomorrow morning.
As long as they surround the place before the wild boars nest, they won\'t be afraid of the wild boars running away.
Everyone had already convinced Xu Shiyan at this moment, so they naturally listened to him, so the group hurried back.
When I came here, I followed the trail of wild boars and took a lot of detours, so I don’t need to go back.
Everyone was familiar with this area, so they went straight to the direction of the commune and returned to Xigang.
In the evening, the big guys found a place to live in Xigang Commune.
On the morning of the 18th, before dawn, everyone got up, dealt with a bite of food, and then assembled and set off.
After walking for more than two hours, I came to the walnut catalpa forest.
Arriving here, Xu Shiyan began to arrange manpower and arrange hunting plans.
There are hundreds of people in their line, it is impossible to swarm up and shoot directly, so the wild boar will run away after being frightened, and the two-legged ones can\'t run faster than the four-legged ones.
Moreover, there are many people and accidents are easy to happen. After all, bullets have no eyes. What if they hurt someone?
So it is necessary to pay attention to tactical cooperation, preparation of steps, and blocking in batches to prevent wild boars from escaping the encirclement.
Xu Shiyan led the people from the Dongjiangyan brigade to enter from the east of the walnut forest, and the people from the Dongling and Nanling brigades surrounded them from the north and south.
The rest of the people were blocked uphill in the ditch and pond on the west side.
"Remember, our side fired first. After the Dongling and Nanling brigades heard the gunshots, they outflanked and drove the wild boars to the west."
"The west is divided into sections, and the firepower is concentrated on the slope. If the wild boars escape, be sure to stop them and try to destroy them all."
I checked the terrain yesterday. The **** on the west side of the ditch pond is steep. Shooting from the east, south, and north sides can kill many pigs.
The rest of the pigs must flee towards the west slope. The west **** is steep, and the wild boars must go uphill slower than downhill. It is easier for the people on the **** to fight down.
Everyone thought it was reasonable, so the captains of each brigade led people to ambush in designated positions around the walnut forest according to the discussed plan.
Here, Xu Shiyan led a group of people from the Dongjiangyan Brigade and changed into the white coats they borrowed from the commune hospital last night.
These people should get as close to the wild boar herd as possible, and then attack suddenly.
Twenty people were distributed in a fan, each with a gun in his hand, walking cautiously into the woods.
The wild boar is lazy. It didn’t lie down to rest until it was full last night. It won’t wake up until ten o’clock this morning.
Sleeping boars are naturally much less vigilant.
In addition, the wind is still blowing in the woods today, and more than twenty people are walking scattered again, and the little movement is covered under the sound of the wind, and it is almost impossible to detect anything.
Everyone dared not walk too fast, and slowly approached the bottom of the ditch and pond.
When I got to the bottom of the ditch pond, I found that there was a large group of wild boars lying on the west **** of the ditch pond.
Xu Shiyan waved his hand, telling everyone not to worry, slow down, slow down, and lean forward as much as possible.
Until they were less than 100 meters away from the herd of wild boars, everyone pulled down the safety guards and took aim with their guns.
Bang bang bang, gunshots rang out, and then there was a howling of wild boars.
Another five chapters have been updated, let me take a breather, and there may be more tonight.
