Night has fallen and the bonfire is blazing.
An Sanxi took his small cavalry team and set up camp.
Choose a place close to the water source and with your back to the wind. These two points are very important. If it is not a place with your back to the wind, you may be in danger of freezing to death. It will also be a big trouble if you have nowhere to get water.
Two large bundles of barbed wire were unloaded from the packhorse, holes were drilled in the ground with steel drills, and felled tree stumps were used to surround the barbed wire. This would isolate the animals from raids.
Everyone can sleep peacefully at night.
Ten tents were set up, some for people and some for horses.
Although there is no heating facility, the tent can block the cold wind. The horses sleep standing up, so there will basically be no problem.
There were many bonfires burning in the middle of the tent. Everyone gathered around them to warm themselves up.
As soon as we left the Great Wall, we immediately felt that the weather was getting colder. Without the obstruction of the Yanshan Mountains, the temperature here was at least ten degrees lower than in Guanhai.
Even though we were all sitting around the fire, it was the first time I experienced the warmth of the fire on my chest and the cold wind on my back. This feeling was really uncomfortable. The wind outside the wall blew on my face, which made me feel burning and painful.
There is boiling water in the horse crane. When the water boils, first put a packet of soup stock, then a packet of dehydrated vegetables, and finally a spoonful of lard. After a while, the fragrance will spread out.
The soldiers, civilian husbands and others were each given a piece of naan bread, which they all picked up with bayonets or the tips of knives and roasted on the fire.
"The soup is ready, here, one big bowl for each person." The cook, Lao Wangtou, carried a horse crane and a spoon and distributed the soup to everyone one by one.
He is a guide and part-time cook.
Everyone’s naan cakes are also baked. The hot naan cakes exude the unique sweetness of wheat cakes. Just hot soup and eat the grilled naan cakes. The soup is very delicious and everyone is very satisfied after drinking it. The soups of this era are all
It is stewed with ingredients, and the soup stock there is very powerful. You can get whatever flavor you want, and it is very convenient. You can just throw it into the pot and stir it with a spoon.
Especially the civilian husbands, their eyes widened in shock.
It’s incredible that we can eat vegetables in the middle of winter.
Although they saw that the dried vegetables were boiled in water, the dried vegetables turned out to be exactly the same as fresh vegetables after boiling, and the color was like freshly picked vegetables.
I took a bite and it tasted very good and the soup was delicious.
Of course they don't know that this is a modern production of quick-frozen and dehydrated dried vegetables, which retains the original taste and nutrition of the dried vegetables to the greatest extent. As long as they are soaked in water, they will be almost the same as fresh vegetables.
In order to ensure vitamins and other nutrients, Yang Fan provided dehydrated vegetable packets for the cavalry team. One packet can cook a large pot at a time.
Everyone slurped and ate, and there was a peaceful atmosphere in the camp.
Soon the smell of food attracted many animals.
There are foxes, badgers, and a black bear.
A group of wolves were also watching in the distance, but they were obviously afraid of the fire and did not dare to come over.
After the black bear arrived, the crowd became a little commotion.
While everyone else was eating, An Sanxi and two soldiers were defecating outside the barbed wire fence.
An Sanxi stipulates that only three or more people are allowed to go out for defecation.
Seeing the black bear approaching, the two soldiers immediately panicked and were about to wipe their butts and run back to the barbed wire fence.
An Sanxi was still pooping on his own. He didn't seem to see the black bear.
The black bear was a little surprised. There were three people squatting on the ground calmly, as if they didn't see it. The black bear was very curious, so he decided to go and have a look.
They saw the black bear man standing up, more than two meters tall, and walking towards the three of them. The two soldiers were frightened to death and immediately picked up their pants and prepared to run away.
An Sanxi sighed and said: "Squat down, you coward, can you outrun it?"
"I, I go up trees, I can climb trees."
An Sanxi couldn't laugh or cry. Comparing tree climbing with a bear, how stupid do you have to be to come up with this lame idea?
An Sanxi shook his head helplessly, took out a double-barreled flintlock musket from his waist, and without even aiming, pulled the trigger at the standing black bear.
Bang! A gunshot.
Immediately, all the animals, large and small, that were spinning around outside the barbed wire fence ran away in fright, and then ran away completely. The wolves in the distance all ran away.
The black bear stopped and looked down at his chest. There was a tuft of white hair on the bear's chest, and inside the white hair was the heart.
At this time, a small hole appeared there, and bright red blood was gurgling out.
Black Bear looked at the three people who were still squatting in disbelief. The one in the middle blew the smoke from his gun and put the gun back.
Then continue shitting like nothing happened.
The two soldiers and the people in the camp were all dumbfounded.
After a moment of silence, a burst of cheers sounded.
An Sanxi laughed and scolded: "A bunch of little cubs that don't even have all their fur, they're just a bear. Drag them back and let's eat bear meat tonight."
The cheers got louder, the young people worshiped the hero, and An Sanxi's leisurely demeanor conquered them all at once.
An Tou scolded them all day long for being rough, saying that the soldier's Taishan collapsed in front of him without changing his expression. Usually his ears could hear calluses.
No one takes it seriously.
I didn't expect to see it today. An Tou himself was really facing a two-meter-tall black bear and calmly pooped. It really didn't affect him at all. At this time, as he usually said, the sky is huge and the poop is the biggest.
A group of cubs put down their food, rushed out with cheers, opened the simple gate made of wooden posts and wire mesh, ran out and pulled the black bear back.
There was a chatter about how to decompose this bear.
Han Wu's family is a butcher, and he has been butchering pigs for three generations. He touched his chin and said: "I think we should bleed the bear meat as soon as possible before it is dead, otherwise the bear meat will be boiled with blood foam, which will not taste good."
Chen Xiang said: "If you ask me, chop off the four claws immediately. Don't wait for a while before they freeze and become unpalatable."
At this time, An Sanxi had come back and said: "You idiots, you only know how to eat, but you didn't think of digging a toilet in the camp. If anyone gets up in the middle of the night, runs out to poop, and is picked up by a wolf, don't
I blame you for not reminding you."
Everyone hurriedly sent rainbow farts, and they all said that An Sanxi should be careful and considerate of all options. An Sanxi was so angry that he kicked everyone in the buttocks and kicked them back.
"Hurry up and close the door. Why don't you close the door and wait for another female bear to come?"
Everyone burst into laughter.
Chen Xiang asked: "Antou, how do you know this is a male?"
An Sanxi slapped him on the back of the head and cursed: "Are you stupid? Doesn't it have something that you also have?"
Chen Xiang made a big blush, didn't he? You still have to look at this to judge the male and female.
"Boss, let's eat bear paws. We haven't eaten bear paws yet." Everyone begged.
Although An Sanxi often beats them in training, they all know in their hearts that An Tou cherishes them in his heart. He always thinks about whether there is anyone who hasn't eaten anything delicious. Even if there is someone who hasn't eaten, he won't touch it.
.
"Huh, you trash, you just want to eat." An Sanxi had nothing to do with these little cubs' tough words, "The bear's paw is so hard to bear, you all go chop wood, chop down the tree opposite, drag it back, we
Boil bear’s paws.”
There was another cheer immediately, and in the blink of an eye, these boys ran into the tent, took out the tools carried by the pack horses, yelled and ran to the pine tree thirty meters away, and started sawing desperately with a hacksaw.
The sawdust flew everywhere. After a while, the two of them were panting from exhaustion. They were immediately replaced by others and began to continue the desperate sawing.
Soon the big tree was dragged back. The people used axes to cut off all the branches and split the trunk into wooden sections for making fire.
Two army cauldrons were brought out. It was not possible to use a horse hoist to stew bear meat and bear paws. We still had to use this big thing.
Seeing two large pots cooking bear meat and bear paws, everyone watched eagerly and drooled. They wished they could cook it right away.
At this time, Wang Peng came over. He was injured today and his whole body hurt from the fall. He came over and sat next to An Sanxi.
"Are you feeling better?" An Sanxi asked.
"I've rubbed safflower oil all over my body. It won't hurt anymore, but it's all swollen." Wang Peng replied.
"The swelling will subside within two or three days, and I will be full of energy again."
"Head, bear paws take a long time to cook. Please tell us your story on the grassland." Wang Peng had just finished speaking. Everyone agreed. They loved hearing An Sanxi's story about the grassland the most.
"Okay, today you encountered a pack of wolves, and I will tell you the story of how I met a wolf when I first arrived in the grassland."
