Chapter 3397 Entering the Mountain

There was no talking all night, and everyone got up on time at three o'clock in the morning the next day.

Li Tuozi heated the three small rice balls he prepared last night in the microwave and fed them to his three hunting dogs.

Each dog was only given a small rice ball of three to four ounces. Hai Long curled his lips when he saw it and muttered "stingy."

Hai Long tried to keep his voice as low as possible, but it was still heard by the Li family's uncle and nephew. Li Chuang snorted contemptuously: "You know what the heck, hunting dogs can only eat half full when they go up the mountain. Once they are full, they will no longer exert any effort. Do you understand?"

Lu Fei knew this rule. He glared at Hai Long and shouted: "Shut up, look more and talk less. There are rules for entering the mountain. If you don't understand, don't make silly comparisons."

Hai Long blushed and quickly lowered his head to admit his mistake.

The three dogs wolfed down the rice balls and wiped them out in a short while. These were experienced dogs. Although they were half full, they did not bark dissatisfied. For them, this was just a temporary place at the bottom. , to reserve energy for consumption on the way. The real feast is still in the mountains. When they catch prey, of course they can eat it to their heart's content, and they will still eat meat in big mouthfuls, which is much better than eating dumplings.

After Gouzi's meal, Lu Fei and others also had a good meal, and each of them drank half a catty of warm high-strength liquor. With half a catty of warm wine as a base, their stomachs would not feel cold for two hours.

After breakfast, the six people took three snowmobiles and brought all the equipment to the hunting team compound. They tied ropes and attached a large snow sledge to each snowmobile. They took advantage of the darkness and set off on the snow. .

The daybreak in the Northeast is about half an hour earlier than in the North and South. In this season, you can't see the dim light until at least five o'clock in the morning. It is not yet four o'clock, which is the darkest time. However, although the night It was dark, but with the white snow all over the mountains and plains reflecting off the sight, Li Tuozi discussed with Lu Fei that in order not to disturb the prey, they could simply turn off the car lights. Lu Fei fully agreed.

As for the noise of the car, it is actually not very loud in the snowy mountains and forests. From a distance of a hundred meters, if you don't listen carefully, you can't hear any noise at all, and there is no echo at all.

In this way, three motorcycles dragged the sledge, and the dog sat on the sledge, drove out of the Hongxia Valley and continued to advance deeper along the creek.

As the saying goes, being smart with your hands is not as good as being smart with your hands.

Snowmobiles are simply a bug in this vast forest and snowfield.

In the past, when hunters entered the mountains, they would walk with hunting dogs. Although the snow sledge was easy to use, the strength of the hunting dogs was limited, and they could barely manage dragging an empty sledge or pulling a person.

No matter how large the quantity is, it won’t work.

Moreover, when hunting in the mountains, hunting dogs are the key weapon of hunters. They rely on hunting dogs to find prey, open mouths, and fight. Even at critical moments, hunting dogs can save lives. How can a hunter be willing to let hunting dogs carry him?

If the hunting dogs are exhausted and beaten, the hunting dogs will only be allowed to return with the prey after eating and drinking on the way back. When they come, they will definitely be reluctant to part with it.

Some people may ask, can't horses, mules, and donkeys be used to pull sledges?

Answer, really not.

Large animals can usually pull a sledge on the road, but it is difficult to use it when hunting in the mountains. When they arrive in the mountains, they hear the roar of wild beasts, and the large animals simply cannot move. If they are timid, they will be frightened to the point of peeing. This situation is not bad. If it were startled directly, it would hurt someone, which is no joke, so you can only walk with the dog on a leash.

But hunting is always in winter, and usually after the first snow, because the snow can leave the footprints of wild beasts, which is easy to track. However, hunters walking in the snow will lose their old energy, especially In places like Changbai Mountain and Daxingan Mountains, the snow in the mountains in winter generally exceeds 40 to 50 centimeters. If you take a step forward, the snow will directly cover your knees and even reach your thighs. This is truly a difficult situation. Every step requires a lot of energy. With his physical strength, not to mention his speed, if he could walk twenty miles in a morning, that would be considered quite impressive. If someone like Di Ruilong or Wang Xinlei were to cry to the sky and howl to the ground every minute, even Lu Fei wouldn't be able to bear it. .

Thanks to the snowmobile, the speed of this thing is more than a hundred times faster than walking. Moreover, if there is no snowmobile, Lu Fei will not go into the mountain in a hurry, which would be a disaster.

Li Tuozi planned to get up at three o'clock in the morning, eat, feed the dog, etc., which would take an hour, and the rest was time for traveling. However, the time he planned was based on walking.

The first encirclement point that Li Tuozi mentioned was the dividing line for forest protection by their hunting team. This winter, their team had been there more than once for training patrols and hunting. Li Tuozi had noticed that there was a place a few hundred meters away from the dividing line. This place is the best place to wait for prey. It is about 17 or 18 miles away from Hongxia Valley. It takes more than four hours to walk. To reach the destination, rest for a while to recharge. The prey will not come to the river until it gets warmer after nine o'clock in the morning. While drinking water, they were just waiting for work.

Li Tuozi considered that Lu Fei and Wang Hailong were newbies and didn't know much about their physical strength. Taking an extra hour of spare time would not delay things. As a result, after everyone made plans last night, they all ignored the super bug of snowmobiles. The journey was originally planned to take four or five hours, but in the end, it only took less than half an hour to reach the destination. There was no talking all night, and everyone got up on time at three o'clock in the morning the next day.

Li Tuozi heated the three small rice balls he prepared last night in the microwave and fed them to his three hunting dogs.
