This morning, the wind started blowing with snowflakes. The sky was gray and it looked like it was going to snow. Zhang Peng was chopping firewood outside. Not even half an hour later, a strong wind suddenly came up and there were gusts of cold wind.
The snowflakes flew up from the ground, whistling, hitting the body and face, causing pain like a knife. After a while, the wind became stronger, and people could not open their eyes. Zhang Peng knew that this was the first big smoke bubble coming.
.
The sky is getting darker and darker, and the wind is getting stronger and stronger. The strong wind rolls up the flying snow in the sky, and then rolls up the snow on the ground, like a huge curtain, soon covering the already dark sky, everywhere
Filled with rolling snow and wind, soon
At that time, I couldn't even see the road clearly. The heavy snow leveled the ravines and buried the road. I could still see weeds struggling in the snow on the roadside. But now I can't see anything. The whole land is completely white.
Nothing is seen.
The wind and snow were still roaring wildly. Zhang Peng stood in the house, listening to the strong wind outside. He had already put Dahuang and the puppies inside the house. It was better not to let them suffer outside in this weather.
Zhang Peng lay on the kang and played with the puppy from time to time, quietly waiting for the strong wind to end.
The "smoke bubbles" blew all night, and the strong wind stopped a little during the next day, but it was already completely white outside. By noon, the sky was clear outside, and the sky seemed to have been washed away.
Someone called Zhang Peng's name, and Zhang Peng knew that the first "winter siege" in winter had begun.
The person who came to call Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming today was Liu Zhiyong. Relatively speaking, they were familiar with each other. From the previous contacts, he felt that they were nice people, so Liu Zhiyong also volunteered to call Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming.
The family also knew that the winter hunt had begun, so they helped Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming pack their equipment, put on their leather hats and leather gloves, and walked out. They did not bring Rhubarb with them. The hunting team had a dog gang, so it was not necessary to bring Rhubarb with them.
It's suitable but not gregarious. When you hunt alone, it's time for rhubarb to show off its talents.
When we arrived at the village headquarters, we found that everyone had already arrived. To our surprise, we found that Zhao Laowen was also smiling and chatting with Cui Weixing. Seeing that everyone was here, Cui Weixing announced something to everyone. The leader who will lead everyone this year is Zhao Weixing.
After hearing this appointment, the people below all whispered, what is going on? Shouldn't Cui Weixing be the leader?
Cui Weixing coughed twice, and then explained the reason. Cui Weixing was indeed the leader at the beginning, but unfortunately, he happened to have something to go to the city and some important things to deal with, and he still had to deal with these gunners.
Don't worry, don't look at Cui Wei
He is obedient in front of Xing, but once he is released, no one will obey anyone. Those who can be gunners can stand alone, and can be suppressed by other colleagues. It will not be easy in terms of face, so I can only ask
Zhao Laowen is out of the mountain.
Even though Zhao Laowen seems to be older, he is not bad in skills and has enough qualifications. He can suppress the young people in the village without any problem. In addition, everyone in the village knows Zhao Laowen's character, so it would be a shame if he was worried about him.
It’s not a pleasant experience.
Zhao Laowen didn't say anything when he saw everyone. He just smiled and nodded, then waved his hand and set off towards the mountains. Their goal today was Laomaogou in the west.
A group of gunners marched towards Laomaogou with their hunting dogs. These hunting dogs all belong to the family of hunting team member Wang Fugen. His dogs are also a famous dog gang in the village. They are all "Northeastern stupid dogs". Zhang Peng's family's rhubarb
In fact, it is a combination of Northeast mutt dog and Oroqen hound.
Northeastern dumb dog, also known as HLJ hound, commonly known as big dumb dog (big dumb dog is relative to wild wolves, pheasants, and pheasants, not that it is really "stupid". Big dumb dog is a type of Chinese pastoral dog.
, slightly different in size due to different regions.), widely distributed in the HLJ watershed
and the Greater Khingan Mountains forest area. The most obvious characteristics of the Northeast Mutt Dog are that its teeth are similar to those of a wolf, its body is larger, its body hair is thicker, and its coat color is mainly yellow (pure yellow is a dog with the strongest "earth" character among the five elements)
, often used to control Feng Shui), paired with black, and also available in other colors.
The Northeast Mutt Dog has a strong physique, strong explosive power, good obedience, quick wit, good at running in the mountains and forests, and has super tracking and hunting abilities. It is a very excellent hunting dog. Because it has lived in the mountains for a long time
Because of this, it still has the original wildness and attack ability. Although the Northeastern hound is a medium-sized dog, they will not have any fear when encountering large beasts in the mountains, because the Northeastern mutt dog is good at encircling and suppressing large prey as a team, especially some large prey.
Larger prey.
With his dog gang, the hunting team is guaranteed tracking and hunting. Of course, when allocating prey, Wang Fugen also has to take the majority. After a long period of running-in, his dog gang has cooperated very well. This is why Zhang Peng
The reason why I didn’t bring rhubarb here.
The journey to Laomaogou was more than 20 miles of icy and snowy mountain road. They trudged through the "crotch-crotch snow" for a long time, and finally arrived at the foot of the mountain when it was about to get dark.
The hunting team lit a fire, roasted dry food, drank some water, took a short break, and then got busy again.
In a ravine not far away, Zhao Laowen selected a large snow-covered ridge with wide and high mountain roots, and ordered: "Let's go here!" After saying that, he walked to the bottom of the snow-covered ridge, threw off his fur coat and used a small
He dug up the snow with his shovel and asked Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming to clear the snow behind him. Several hunting team members also teamed up with each other, separated by four or five meters, and started working together under the snowy ridge.
Northeasterners are all masters of "snow digging". They first dig out a hole that is more than half a meter high and half a meter wide. After digging in, it expands to the left, right, up and down. Surprisingly, the snow in this snow mountain is very solid.
, a large piece was dug out, and a space of more than one meter high was quickly cleared, allowing people to sit upright. The snow above the head is very hard, so there is no need to worry about it falling down.
While expanding the space of the snow cave, Zhao Laowen told Zhang Peng and Zhao Chunming that this snow nest was passed down by senior gunners who went into the mountains to hunt prey. It is also a basic skill for gunners to survive in the winter wilderness. I will leave it to them today.
It will be useful when going up the mountain in the future.
When hunting in the mountains, one has to look for the footprints of wild animals all over the mountains. It often takes ten and a half days to get out of the mountains. In the ice and snow of the Northeast, how the gunners can rest at night becomes a big problem. Moreover, the wild animals they hunt must have land.
Storage in the field. In the mountains and forests
There are many trees, and there is no shortage of materials to build a temporary shack, but it cannot be erected in a short while, it takes a lot of time, it is not warm, and it cannot stop the attacks of black blind men, tigers, wolves and other big beasts. It is necessary to find a shelter that can avoid the wind and cold and protect against wild beasts.
The venue is difficult.
However, by using the method of making a snow nest, these problems can be easily solved.
