When Pan Geng moved to Yin, I initiated Jian Shang

Mulan River.

An inland river on the northern route of Yanshan Mountain converges in the Duolun area in later generations.

In other words, this is actually the scope of the Qing Dynasty's enclosure.

Of course, nowadays the area is covered with vegetation, the forests are vast and almost pristine, and there are wild deer, wolves, bears, and tigers everywhere.

dong dong dong-

The sound of the drums was so loud that it sounded like the roar of a Kui beast, startling thousands of birds and small animals so that they ran away in all directions.

There were also tigers whose sleep was disturbed and they raised their heads, then looked in the direction where the sound came from, stretched their bodies, and then raised their heads: "Roar——"

The tiger roared, causing some small animals to crawl on their backs.

I also swear that this place has an owner.

The next second, the tiger's ears trembled slightly, and it looked towards the southeast vigilantly.

Rustling.

Something is approaching in the woods.

Then, the long worm was picked up and flew away.

Yes, he flew out of the tiger's cave and was knocked unconscious, but he quickly turned his body around and ran away in panic.

Immediately afterwards, a red flag appeared in front of the tiger, and a group of terrifying upright apes, dressed in armor, wearing leggings and leather boots, drawing swords and shields, equipped with axes, halberds, bows and crossbows, rushed out of the forest.

They just took a look at the tiger, and the next moment a murderous aura and greedy hostility came over them.

The tiger slowly tensed his muscles and then growled a warning.

But all he got in response was the warriors who quickly dispersed and formed an array to surround him.

People of this era have a natural excitement about hunting.

When they saw the tiger, they had no fear, but only the desire to hunt and the hope of subsequent promotion.

In ancient times, hunting was mostly done by marching.

Therefore, hunting is actually a form of actual combat.

Since it is actual combat, there will be merit.

A tiger can be compared to the head of an armored soldier.

As a result, everyone's breathing gradually became rapid.

The tiger was also becoming increasingly uneasy.

"Kill!"

At a command from the team leader, the fifty men under his command moved forward step by step, stimulating the tiger and tightening the encirclement, making the tiger feel fear and anxiety.

Finally, the tiger couldn't hold it anymore and rushed towards what it thought was the weak point in the west, roaring.

With a weight of seven or eight hundred kilograms pressing down on him, the shield soldier in front of him almost thought he was hit by a huge rock.

"Stab!" The sergeant and the squad leader shouted in unison. The sergeant waved the short spear in his hand, while the squad leader swung the small flag and stabbed out with the spear tip.

puff!

The tiger was injured, and the blood stimulated its ferocity. It raised its sharp claws and slammed the shield, trying to push away the guy who was in the way.

But it was ultimately a beast fighting alone, and it could never have imagined that soldiers from other directions would suddenly rush up, stabbing and shooting it countless times.

Not long after, the tiger felt a pain in his eye, and suddenly one of his eyes went blind.

I lost my sight and felt terrified. I wanted to run, but it was too late.

The man he was pinning down stabbed the tiger with a fatal blow, and the tiger felt his stomach go empty.

After struggling for a while in vain, he fell to the ground.

"Tiger! Tiger! Tiger!"

After a tiger was killed, excited cheers were heard throughout the small flag.

On this day, the entire northern foothills of Yanshan Mountain were filled with excitement.

But the beasts suffered.

Such a scene has not been seen for many years. The living space limit between humans and beasts has been completely broken today.

There is no pure land in Yanshan anymore.

In the middle reaches of the Mulan River, there is a huge camp with the banner of the General's Mansion hanging on it, and nearby sentry towers and other facilities are all available.

Under the reviewing platform in the big tent, corpses were transported here one after another.

Xin Quke had no intention of hunting, but instead asked all participating teams to go into the deep mountains and forests to search the mountains and eliminate wild animals.

After all, productivity was limited in this era, and Xinqu's purpose of searching the mountains and eliminating beasts was, on the one hand, to explore the map, and on the other hand, to clear out a safe production environment for the already developed areas.

Those who established their capital in Beijing inevitably regarded the northern foothills of the Yanshan Mountains as their private land and barrier.

This is why Xin Qu arranged for Yanshan to be garrisoned by the General Zhenzhong’s Mansion.

Therefore, by clearing out the wild beasts in the north, we can effectively prevent the beasts from moving south and hurting people.

As for how many wild animals will be eliminated in this process, and whether it will destroy the local ecological balance.

All I can say is, it’s hard to say.

Since Chengde has a limited population, even if we develop the local area, it will not cause impact so quickly, and wild animals more or less know how to seek benefits and avoid harm.

If you can’t beat someone, can’t you just run away?

Although humans have great endurance, if they run in rugged terrain, they may not be a match for wild beasts.

Look, besides the carts full of prey laid out, there are also the unlucky ones who are injured, broken, or poisoned.

This hunt is also a special training for outdoor combat, and people can really die.

But as time went by, more and more prey were delivered, and the butchers brought by Xinqu were not enough, and they had to rely on the assistance of those soldiers who were slightly injured but still able to move.

The animal skins were hung one by one.

The saltpeter production site was extremely busy, and scattered sewage could be seen everywhere in the lower reaches of the Mulan River.

Some small animals that ate carrion were all squatting nearby to eat, but no one was willing to kill the two small animals and bring them back for a feast.

Because it is not necessary.

The food stored in the camp could not be eaten up even if it was fresh, so most of it was made into simple cans using salt and porcelain bottles to increase its shelf life by a few months.

The Xinqu people were so beaten that they started bleeding from their noses.

Because there was a doctor among the group, and there was nothing else in the deep mountains and forests but a pile of medicinal herbs.

Various types of ginseng are everywhere.

Xin Qu cooked some medicinal food and shared it with the injured soldiers, which helped them regain their strength. However, since Xin Qu was fine, he over-replenished himself after eating it.

However, in the following days, as Zisong watched piles of prey being sent back, his expression became more and more solemn.

Because the numbers of these prey are not right.

The Shang people were a nation that was keen on war, sacrifice and hunting.

It’s not like they haven’t searched the mountains and hunted before.

But the situation in Yan State really scared them.

"It was a very efficient massacre." Someone said to Zisong, "The Yan people are very good at fighting. And the style led by Xin Qu is very distinctive. They can sweep the land with arrows, and never use human lives. They can use a group of people to surround and kill, and never use one person to fight alone.

It can be seen that if they were to fight against the Yan army, they would really fight to the death. Even if it was just a small army, it would cause us a lot of casualties. "

"What are you afraid of? Who can't kill a wild animal?"

"Look at the casualties! Look at the extent of their casualties and those who were carried back. If they hadn't had broken bones, broken legs, fever, or infection, they would never have come back.

Moreover, Yan State has a large amount of liquor for detoxification.

The witch doctors of Yan State, now called military doctors, were able to treat a large number of wounded patients.

Now that they have their survival guaranteed, their ferocity is terrifying!"

Hearing this, Zisong, who had been silent all this time, looked at Xin Qu who was wiping the blood from his nose in the arms of the beauty.

This beauty is Yu Yangzi.

As objects of an arranged marriage, based on the past few days of living together, the two had already gotten mixed up and had done everything that needed to be done.

Otherwise, after taking so many tonics, where can you relieve the heat?
But Zisong didn't look at Yu Yangzi, but stared at Xin Qu.

He is showing off his military power.

But it is undeniable that Zisong was afraid. (End of this chapter)
