Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.
Chapter 98 Staking Out
The tall guy is called Wu Henggao, and the muscular guy is called Qiang Jinnan.
The two men were sent by the military to support the farm and help it solve its difficulties.
These two men belonged to a hunting team in the army, hunting gazelles on the grasslands to supplement the troops' rations.
In their view, these hunters in the countryside are just small-time operators.
A less skilled hunter might catch a rabbit or a pheasant, while a more skilled one might catch a wild boar or a wolf.
Compared to the organized hunting practices of their troops, which often involve hunting dozens or even hundreds of gazelles, civilian hunting is simply child's play.
When they learned that the mission involved weasels, they thought their superiors were using it as an excuse to give them a day off.
In their eyes, the little weasel is easy to kill.
"Director Tian, what measures did our farm take before? I'd like to know the details," asked the muscular man.
"These weasels come to the farm at night to eat the chickens. I organized people to beat drums and gongs and even set fires to scare them away, but nothing worked."
"Did you use geese?" Qiang Jinnan asked again.
Anyone who has been dragged around by geese since childhood knows that geese are considered a dominant force among medium-sized animals.
Geese will chase and bite any animal smaller than themselves, and weasels are no exception.
Tian Guoguang nodded: "We also raise some geese on the farm. When we put the geese into the chicken coop, those weasels are not afraid at all. Instead, they kill the geese."
He sighed, then added, "Geese are more precious, so I didn't dare use geese anymore."
Qiang Jinan and his companion Wu Henggao exchanged a glance. It seemed that this group of weasels was not simple. No wonder the farm was forced to ask for help from above.
However, if the military sent them here on a mission, why would other people also come here?
The two men across from me, smoking cigarettes, looked weathered and worn; you could tell they were old hunters, probably hired by the farm.
There was a young man next to him, who looked no older than twenty. His complexion didn't show any signs of having spent years in the mountains. Could he also be skilled at hunting?
It's not that they look down on people, it's just that hunting is a skill that requires a lot of experience, and being young means lacking experience, so such a person certainly doesn't have much skill.
It's also possible that they're someone with connections who wants to take credit for something.
When it's time to catch weasels at night, just make him step back so as not to delay the important business.
Qiang Jinan glanced at the people in the room and had a general idea of what was going on.
In his two-person team with Wu Henggao, he always came up with the ideas, while Wu Henggao was responsible for carrying them out.
They made a lot of preparations before they came, including bringing geese.
Since we can't use geese, let's just use hunting dogs.
"Manager Tian, could you please prepare some dog food for me? I brought two large wolfhounds with me; they'll be useful tonight."
The two old hunters, one with a square face and the other with a long face, lit up when they heard about the wolfhounds.
"Comrade, comrade, where are the wolfhounds? Can we take a look?"
As hunters, they knew all too well how helpful wolfhounds were in hunting.
It can protect its master when in danger, track prey when searching for it, and help hold back prey when hunting it; its uses are truly immense.
Unfortunately, these days, people can't even get enough to eat, let alone keep dogs.
The average family simply cannot afford to raise a good dog that can accompany them to work in the mountains.
The two old hunters were really envious when they heard that the army was coming with their hunting dogs.
"You can look, look all you want." Qiang Jinnan wasn't stingy; he needed a few people to help guard the farm at night, so it was important to maintain good relationships.
The wolfhounds raised by the tribe were indeed valiant, with glossy black fur and agile bodies.
When it sees a stranger, it doesn't bark, but just shows its canine teeth and makes a low snoring sound; it's clearly a tough character.
The two wolfhounds refused to eat the food given to them by the old hunter and Chang Kun, only eating the food fed to them by Qiang Jin Nan, demonstrating their remarkable discipline.
At noon, the group ate various kinds of chicken at the farm: stewed chicken, roasted chicken, and stir-fried chicken giblets. They ate with their mouths full of oil.
The hateful weasel killed the chicken but didn't eat it, only drinking a few mouthfuls of blood. The farmers could only eat the rest of the dead chicken with tears in their eyes.
But it smells so good!
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content, Qiang Jinan finalized his plan to hunt down the weasels.
On the outskirts, there were a few of them, plus farm staff, a total of twenty or thirty people, with wolfhounds. When they encountered weasels, they would shoot them with slingshots and let the wolfhounds bite them.
If all else fails, Qiang Jinnan also has high-intensity flares brought from the military. Once these flares are launched, the area within a radius of 100 meters will be as bright as day.
Weasels are nocturnal animals. If they are suddenly exposed to a bright light at night, their eyes will be stimulated and they will be frightened and will run away quickly.
On the inside, according to Big Horse Face's plan, wire buckles were installed at each entrance to the chicken coop.
Goose droppings were scattered all over the chicken coop. Legend has it that weasels are afraid of geese and will run away when they smell goose droppings, so it's a measure that's better than nothing.
In this way, even if there are too many weasels to catch in time and they slip through the net and enter the farm, they will still be met with various lasso traps.
Even if we can't wipe out this pack of weasels tonight, the two wolfhounds can follow their scent to their lair and then annihilate them in one fell swoop.
Upon hearing this, everyone praised it.
Previously, since they couldn't find the weasel's lair, they could only passively defend themselves.
Now that we have wolfhounds, if we can find the weasel's den, we can take the initiative to attack and wipe them out.
After agreeing on a plan, Qiang Jinnan glanced at Chang Kun:
"Brother Chang, you'll follow me tonight and obey my orders, okay?"
Although he was asking for Chang Kun's opinion, his tone left no room for argument.
He was afraid that Chang Kun, being young and impulsive, would ruin his plans.
Chang Kun thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
He had no good suggestions, and while he was on the farm with the system sensors running, he couldn't find any trace of the weasels.
In the afternoon, I helped make wire clips and placed them at various entrances.
After that, rest for a while to recharge for the big battle that night.
In the evening, the group finished dinner early and, as planned, assigned people to guard each entrance to the farm from all sides.
Chang Kun followed behind Qiang Jinnan, and the two chatted idly.
Upon learning that Chang Kun was not the son of a cadre but a farmer from a mountainous area who was recruited by the Institute of Zoology because of his excellent hunting skills, Qiang Jinnan couldn't help but admire him.
Ambitions are not limited by age; one should not look down on others just because they are young. Qiang Nan secretly reminded himself of this.
During their casual conversation, Chang Kun suddenly noticed a group of weasels entering his sensing range from the northwest.
"There's something going on over there!"
Chang Kun pointed to the northwest and was about to leave.
"Chang Kun, wait a minute, what's going on? The dog didn't even bark."
Qiang Jinnan reached out to stop Chang Kun. What was wrong with Chang Kun? He had agreed to follow behind him, but before the weasel even appeared, he started to disobey orders.
"Brother Qiang, the weasel is coming over there, hurry up!"
"Brother Chang, you're too tense. Relax. According to Field Manager, the weasel won't arrive for another half hour."
"Let me tell you, I was like that when I was young too. I would get nervous and easily agitated when things happened. Once..."
Qiang Jinan was preparing to give Chang Kun a lesson in ideological education.
"Woof woof—!!"
The large wolfhound beside me barked wildly at the sky.
The direction is northwest.
