"Oh?" Su Yin became interested and asked: "Do these gophers live underground? They dig holes underground. How do you know where the gophers are? How did the veteran catch him?"
Gao Ren and the other three looked at each other and smiled. Gao Ren patted Taishi Wu and motioned for Taishi Wu to explain to Su Yin.
Taishi Wu nodded: "My lord, it's like this. The habits of gophers are very similar to those of hares. Living in burrows in this kind of wilderness, they will definitely be able to burrow three times. However, this kind of gophers will not dig too deep, no more than two feet at most."
As soon as we find the entrance to his hole, we will immediately dig it out to expose the planed surface in the soil, and then block the hole entrance with a mud ball. A string is tied in the mud ball, and the other end of the string is tied to a big rock.
Under the big stone, there is a saber inserted into the soil.
When the gopher finds that the entrance to the hole is blocked, he will definitely find a way to break up the mud ball as soon as possible. However, once the mud ball is broken up, the string will lose its focus, and the boulder will fall and hit the saber, stabbing it straight.
Break through the soil layer and insert it into the gopher accurately."
Su Yin was stunned: "Good guy, you guys really know how to find a way."
The three former soldiers laughed, stretched out their hands to skin and clean the gophers, and started to barbecue.
However, Su Yin felt a little hesitant in his heart. It didn't matter if he ate pheasants, fruits, or fish a few days ago, but today he ate gophers? Su Yin thought that he didn't have the good teeth of Cantonese people to eat anything, and he felt a little embarrassed.
.
However, when Gao Ren handed a golden and oily gopher to Su Yin, Su Yin, who was a little hungry, tried to take a bite. The fragrant, delicate and fragrant meat made Su Yin...
Immediately, he no longer hesitated and started eating in big mouthfuls.
"I didn't expect that such a desolate place could have such delicious food." Su Yin Dasheng praised, and at the end he didn't forget to hand the gopher to Yu Wensheng: "You should also eat more."
A trace of sadness flashed in Gao Ren's eyes and he sighed.
Su Yin noticed this keenly and asked deliberately: "When the Qin army was here, the food should be pretty good."
Gao Ren heard this and shook his head: "Your Majesty is wrong. How could a desolate place have enough products to supply such a huge army? The so-called record of the Xiongnu's eight hundred miles in the north was referring to us.
We drove the Xiongnu tents and the main force to the north of the Great Wall, but there are still a large number of Xiongnu tribes remaining in the rear. Those people are herdsmen during the day, and they pick up swords and guns at night and become cavalry, so our supply line is extremely fragile.
At most, only 10% of military supplies can be delivered to us. Lord, think about it, is it okay for ten people to eat the same amount as one person? Even if the entire army starts to hunt down a large number of these gophers, it will only be a drop in the bucket. That time
, I remember very clearly that we fought head-on with the Huns and lost less than 3,000 people in total. However, the number of brothers Paoze who were robbed and killed on the road and died of illness and starvation due to lack of medicine and food was more than 5,000.
As the coach, I..."
Before Gao Ren finished speaking, a few lines of tears were left on his face and he could no longer speak.
Seeing that she had aroused Gao Ren's sadness, Su Yin felt a little guilty and stopped asking questions. At this time, the atmosphere among the group was a bit dull. Everyone ate hastily and returned to their tents to rest. It was cold in the wilderness.
The wind was bleak, and in this bleak cold wind, the flickering bonfire looked particularly small.
