There is a better way - find the tiger's skin and cover it on the wooden tiger.

Li Mengxi is going to find a tiger skin

Before, after the "Beasts and War Arts" was written, Li Mengxi went to find tiger skins, but there was not a single tiger skin in the army.

At that time, because I was not in a hurry, I had no time to search for it. If I think about it carefully, I have a huge amount of more than 100,000 people in the army now meant that the supplies of more than 100,000 people mean that the total population of several counties is equal to the gathering of materials in several counties, and that the gathering of materials in several counties is impossible for one of them to be without.

Therefore, there must be tiger skins in the army, but I have not looked for them in detail.

When he returned to the camp, Guan Yu was gone by the bonfire.

Guan Yu will lead his troops to attack Julu City before dawn tomorrow, and Guan Yu will go back to rest first.

Beside the bonfire, only Zhang Fei and Liu Bei remained.

When Li Mengxi saw the two, he said directly that he wanted to find the tiger skin to see if the entire army was going to investigate.

Liu Bei smiled, "No need to disturb everyone, it's just a tiger's skin."

Then, Liu Bei said, "Just a few days ago, more than a hundred cavalrymen in Xiliang were captured, and among them were captured, there was a pair of tiger-skinned horse saddles."

Li Mengxi's eyes lit up suddenly.

At the same time, I said in my heart that it was awesome.

The tiger skin is a thing of more than 100,000 soldiers from Zhuozhou, and the two men of Menghu, Guan and Zhang. They asked for a tiger skin but couldn't get it.

But the Western Liang cavalry was so extravagant that they used tiger skin to make saddles.

Maybe this is just accidental, and there is necessity hidden in chance.

There must be many people in the Xiliang army who can shoot wolves and hunt tigers. There are many tiger skins in the army just now. Because the large number of tiger skins in the army is so likely to encounter tiger skins after the Zhuozhou army seized the Xiliang cavalry. So, it happened that there was a set of tiger skin saddles in the capture.

Liu Bei went to get the tiger-skin saddle.

Soon, the saddle was brought.

Sure enough, a pair of one-sided saddle is similar to a mat.

Remove the soft saddle and shake the tiger's skin. The tiger's skin is not big, just as big as a pillow cover.

The color of tiger skin is bright and not bright, and it feels old.

Li Mengxi thought, such a big piece of tiger skin would definitely not be enough to cover the whole body of a tiger, but it would be enough to cover the tiger's head.

A colorful tiger head popped out from the grass, such as cattle and horses, and you must not be scared to leave your hooves.

Also, having a real tiger skin means that Li Mengxi, who is proficient in painting but has never painted tigers, can draw close-to-real tiger patterns on the wooden tiger according to the patterns of the real tiger skin.

Even if it is fake, it is necessary to create fakes that are close to the real ones.

Looking up at the dark sky, Li Mengxi thought for a while and waited for the fake tiger to make it. Because the fake tiger only had a tiger's head and the tiger's body was woven with branches, it was necessary to cover the fake tiger's body with a layer of cloth before it could be painted with stains.

Thinking that the embroidery work still needed, Li Mengxi wanted to find the embroidery lady Liu. When he thought, it would not work. It was late at night and it was difficult to disturb the women and children's camp, so he had to give up.

To apply tabby, cloth, ink, and brush.

Li Mengxi thought about what color of the fabric is suitable as the background color of tiger skin.

When I think about it, I can't understand.

The background color of tiger skin is probably brown and yellow.

So Li Mengxi went to Zizhong Team to find fabrics.

If you want to talk about rich colors, it is definitely high-end fabrics, silk and other colors.

Naturally, Li Mengxi took tiger skins to compare the fabric one by one. In the end, the fabric he chose was another piece of silk, which he harmed another piece of silk.

With silk, pen and ink, and a piece of tiger skin, Li Mengxi returned to the carpenter's camp with both sides.

After leaving for a while, when he came back, he saw that the military craftsman had replaced the chisel hammer and started to operate it carefully one by one.

Li Mengxi stepped forward and touched the military craftsman with his hand, "Oh, so many carvings." Li Mengxi pretended to be surprised.

The military craftsman turned his head and saw Li Mengxi, smiled with his teeth, turned his head, and continued to huddle his head and continue to busy himself.

It is obvious that when Li Mengxi came back, the military craftsmen worked harder.

Before I knew this, Li Mengxi learned a very skillful means of defensive control at some time.

After working hard for several days, Li Mengxi was very tired. He stood by the side and watched for a while, and couldn't help but yawn one by one.

The military craftsman who was buried in the carving couldn't help but turn around and persuaded, "Little General, go back to sleep first. I'll finish it for you later and take it back."

Li Mengxi was stunned for a moment, knowing that he was affecting others' work, Li Mengxi pretended to be fine and smiled, "It's okay, it's okay to wait a moment."

Although Li Mengxi said that, the military craftsman said nothing, and the hammer and chisel in his hand sounded even more urgently.

After a long time.

The tools in the military craftsman's hand changed from a chisel to a light carving knife, and finally, they turned into a rough tiled corner, grinding the edges and corners, and the tiger's head was carved.

Under the light of torches, the head of a tiger as big as a basin was presented vividly in front of everyone.

The tiger looks angry, with its mouth wide open, its eyes hanging slanted, and its sharp fangs are exposed in its mouth.

Beside him, the carpenters were watching, and there was a lot of admiration.

Li Mengxi looked at the tiger's head several times, and he was very satisfied.

This tiger's head is almost like the real tiger's 700 to 80%.

Speaking of which, although there are many tigers in the late Han Dynasty, people at the end of the Han Dynasty could see tigers several times in their lives.

Although Li Mengxi has never seen a real tiger, he has seen tigers of all sizes and angles in programs like the animal world and in various books, and has seen thousands of faces.

In terms of familiarity with tigers, Li Mengxi was more than 99% of the people in the late Han Dynasty.

The tiger's head was already carved, Li Mengxi took out the tiger's skin and raised it high, saying to everyone, "Who will help me cover the tiger's skin on the tiger's head?"

Everyone was excited.

Li Mengxi asked again, "Where is the tiger body? Is the tiger body healed?"

Aside, a carpenter carried over a rough woven tiger body with branches, wheat straw, wooden sticks, ropes, and rough woven tiger bodies.

The body of the tiger made up cannot be said to be similar, it can only be said to be not too similar and very rough.

He took out the silk in his arms and handed it to the carpenters, and asked the carpenters to cut the brown and yellow silk to Meng Hu.

Ordinary carpenters are no longer surprised by wasting silk.

The military craftsman who had carved the tiger was shocked when he saw the carpenters pulling the silk.

At this time, the military craftsman's hand was touched.

A square piece of stuff was stuffed into the hands of the military craftsman.

Li Mengxi said, "This is, a military ticket of twenty kilograms of grain will lead one kilogram of military ration tomorrow, and the remaining 19 kilograms will be available for our military ration."

The military craftsman was stunned for a moment, held the military ticket in his hand tightly and put it away.

On the other side, the carpenters were pretending to be tiger's head with tiger skin and gestured for a long time. A carpenter came over, "Your Majesty, do you have to cut the tiger skin?"

"Then cut it open." Li Mengxi said casually.

After receiving the order, the carpenters cut the tiger skin with confidence.

Fortunately, it was in the Carpenter Camp. The craftsman had fish glue that was available at hand. The tiger skin was cut into various small pieces and applied the fish glue to the tiger's head. After a while, the matter was done.

Li Mengxi went over and saw that it was OK. Although the tiger's skin was on the tiger's head, the stickers were colorful, but the patterns were directly broken and the tiger was mosaic.

It is definitely enough to scare the horse. It is enough to scare people a little far away, but people can see the fake at a glance when they are close.

There is the word "Wang" in the tiger's head, because the piece of tiger skin found is not the skin on the tiger's head, and there is no word "Wang".

After thinking for a while, Li Mengxi picked up the pen and dipped it ink. According to his understanding of the tiger pattern, he wrote it deep and shallow, with horizontal and vertical lines, and he was bent and turned, and he specially drew a little lighter, and painted a king pattern on the tiger's forehead on the tiger's skin.

Not to mention, Li Mengxi's strange technique actually seemed very natural.

Afterwards, Li Mengxi held a tiger skin pattern the size of a palm in his hand. This was a corner cut out in advance, which shone on the tiger skin. Li Mengxi put it on the branches, and the tiger covered with brown and yellow silk was covered with tiger patterns on the silk. He used ink marks to paint ink patterns one by one.

After a while, the tiger pattern was painted.

I stood far away and looked, because of the night, I really felt like I was spotted.

Li Mengxi, who was full of accomplishment, asked the carpenters to carry the tiger and hold the tiger's head to find Li Mengxi together.

——

When Liu Bei saw the fake tiger, he touched and looked at it, and was very curious.

It is not unusual for a real tiger. Liu Bei has seen real fire with his own eyes, and it is not unusual for a fake tiger. However, this is the first time Liu Bei has seen such a realistic fake tiger.

Li Mengxi wanted to try out the deterrent effect of tigers against war horses and how it was.

A soldier brought a war horse and wanted to lead it to the fake tiger.

Before he could get close, the war horse saw the tiger on the ground and was shocked. The soldiers leading the horse were not in charge. The frightened war horse ran away with hooves and panic.

When everyone panicked to catch the horse, Li Mengxi was happy.
