The Life of a Son-in-Law in a Courtyard House

Yang Dalin pulled him back: "Captain Xiao, the wolf pack is still far away, your flashlight can't reach them."

You should turn off your flashlight first, otherwise your eyes won't adjust and you won't be able to see things clearly in the dark.

Captain Xiao was a veteran who had been through many battles, so he naturally understood this principle.

He quickly turned off the flashlight, and then Yang Dalin said, "Captain Xiao, there are quite a few wolves. I suggest that our men lie in ambush and attack them hard when they get close. Otherwise, we won't be able to see them clearly from a distance. The east, west, and south sides are your responsibility, and the north side is mine."

Hurry up and get things set up, I'm going up the hill.

After saying that, Yang Dalin ran towards the earthen slope on the north side.

By this time, some colleagues had already been woken up.

Everyone behaved well and didn't cause much of a commotion. They quickly got dressed in the dark, picked up their guns, and went to their assigned guard posts that they had arranged before going to bed the night before.

This position was assigned by Captain Xiao before he went to bed last night, in order to prevent any danger at night and to ensure that everyone could quickly and effectively guard their posts.

Most of them were assigned to the front of the vehicle.

This will be much safer; even if the wolves get close, they won't be able to reach you.

They could only passively take the beating, but they also had to be careful not to have their tires chewed up by the wolves.

So some of the prepared cow dung around the vehicle was set on fire.

With firelight, the wolf pack might not dare to approach, and it could also provide light for the ambush.

Yang Dalin ran up the mound and surveyed the surroundings again.

We can already make out some of the wolves' silhouettes.

Yang Dalin conducted an experiment and found that he could only see a little over 100 meters at night, less than one-tenth of what he could see during the day.

But it's enough.

Captain Xiao's voice could still be heard from below the earthen slope: "Dalinzi, are you sure?"

Approximately how many are there?

Yang Dalin replied, "Captain Xiao, there are more than ten on the north side, but I can't see the exact number. We'll be there soon. The number is about the same in all three directions, probably more than ten each."

Yang Dalin didn't dare say he could find out exactly how many wolves there were, since some hadn't yet come into his sight. Besides, it would be hard to explain if he could see every single wolf at night, so he was being somewhat reserved in his answer.

The team leader shouted, "Okay, I got it. Are you sure you can manage on your own? I'll have your driver go up and help you."

Yang Dalin initially wanted to refuse, but then he thought that if he were to guard one side by himself, the people below would indeed be more worried.

Although I am very strong in combat, this is nighttime, and dealing with a pack of wolves is not like dealing with petty thieves.

It's good that Yang Dalin has an assistant; at least he can protect his back.

A moment later, Tian Xueyi came up and lay down next to him.

It's very windy and cold on this slope. The howling north wind makes it hard to open your eyes, but Yang Dalin isn't in too much trouble.

Suddenly, a not-so-loud wolf howl came from the south.

He was positioned downwind of the wolf pack to the north, who were probably unaware that he had been lying in ambush.

However, the wolf pack to the south paused their advance upon hearing the wolf howls.

Yang Dalin knew that there was a very clever wolf king among them.

This is what it sensed.

Yang Dalin wanted to continue observing, but then Captain Xiao's voice came from below: "Everyone listen to my order, each of you fire a shot into the air."

Let's see if we can scare them away.

If possible, that would be best. If not, you can start shooting once the wolf comes into view.

Be careful to conserve ammunition and prioritize safety.

shot……"

Yang Dalin knew that Captain Xiao's arrangement was correct. He had originally thought of annihilating the wolf pack, but Captain Xiao's first consideration was that it would be best to scare them away. Otherwise, if a fight broke out, it would be bad if someone got hurt or the vehicles were damaged.

So Yang Dalin fired a shot into the air with a "bang." Yang Dalin could have hit the wolf from a hundred meters away, but in order not to provoke the wolf pack first, Yang Dalin chose not to hit the wolf.

"Bang...bang...bang..."

After Yang Dalin fired his first shot, Tian Xueyi followed suit, and his colleagues below also fired their shots.

The loud gunshots carried far into the night.

The wolves all around could hear it.

Then came the howls of wolves: "Awoo..."

Tian Xueyi's eyesight wasn't as good as Yang Dalin's, so he asked from beside him, "How's it going, Dalin? Can you see clearly? Have the wolves retreated?"

Yang Dalin carefully looked to the north, then looked in other directions, and then shouted loudly, "The wolf pack hasn't retreated; they're continuing to approach us. Everyone be careful!"

"Captain Xiao, I fired first. Otherwise, it'll be troublesome if the wolf pack gets too close."

Captain Xiao then replied, "Okay, as long as you're confident, you can shoot freely."

It seems they won't leave unless you hit them hard enough.

Once Yang Dalin received the order, he had no time to spare.

He then fired a fatal shot at a wolf he had already targeted, which appeared to be the leader of the northern wolf pack.

Then, the wolf pack erupted in chaos, their howls echoing from all sides.

Yang Dalin quickly fired the remaining five shots and was about to reload when Brother Tian handed him his gun.

In the darkness, Brother Tian couldn't see clearly from a distance.

Brother Tian handed his gun directly to Yang Dalin and said, "I can't see clearly, you shoot, I'll help you load the bullets."

Yang Dalin paused for a moment, then immediately pulled a handful of bullets from his pocket and handed them to Brother Tian.

Their guns were different, and the bullets were different too, so Yang Dalin could only hand over the bullets for his gun to Brother Tian.

This was the first time Yang Dalin had used Tian Ge's gun, and he missed with his first shot.

The second shot, after a bit of practice, wounded a wolf; the third shot killed another wolf instantly.

Two more bullets then claimed the lives of two wolves.

Now the remaining wolves to the north were howling even more chaotically.

Before the dozen or so wolves from the north could even get close, most of them had already been lost.

However, Yang Dalin didn't have time to celebrate. He quickly eliminated the wolf pack to the north to support his colleagues.

When Yang Dalin switched back to his gun, he discovered that the remaining wolves to the north had fled in fright, but they hadn't gone far; instead, they split up and tried to circle around to the east and west.

Damn, that wolf is really smart.

It was clearly arranged by the wolf king's howl just now.

Yang watched the wolves run away. The gun's range was decent, but unfortunately it was too far away for him to see them clearly.

They had no choice but to turn around and attack from the west.

Seeing this, Brother Tian didn't ask any questions, but simply kept firing his bullets in tacit agreement.

Yang Dalin fired five shots in quick succession, killing the five wolves on the west side.

Yang Dalin didn't care about just attacking the wolf's head; he was willing to kill or wound it.

If the wolf pelt is damaged, it's damaged. At worst, you can find someone to sew it up and make a usable wolf pelt.

Otherwise, once the other party gets close and enters the circle of cars, it will be difficult for me to fire.

After Yang Dalin fired five more shots, the wolf pack to the west retreated to the distance on both sides, accompanied by several wolf howls.

However, they didn't flee far away; they simply ran far away and scattered.

Damn, that's really cunning. Yang Dalin took the gun from Brother Tian, ​​which was fully loaded with bullets, and turned to shoot the wolf to the east.

After killing and wounding five more, Yang Dalin finally looked to the south.

Yang Dalin guessed that the wolf king must be on the south side, but after just one glance, he couldn't see the wolf king at all.

I estimate that the wolf king is still hiding more than 100 meters away.

Moreover, the wolves were most numerous to the south, and they were not far from the bells set up around the convoy. Because their visibility was obstructed, the colleagues below barely fired any shots and were still waiting for the wolves to get closer.

Yang Dalin could see it clearly and fired immediately.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Yang Dalin fired five more shots.

Then a loud wolf howl came from afar.

The wolves to the south tried to escape, but Yang Dalin took Tian Ge's gun and left two wolves behind.

The other wolves are not visible for the time being.
