Chapter 619 Zhang Feis Eight Military Hunting Techniques
On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, eighty miles away from Julu City, white snow was flying all over the sky, and the sky and the earth were covered with silvery snow.
In this snow-covered world, a frightened deer ran in panic on the snow.
Immediately behind, the rumble of horse hooves followed.
The hunting team, Zhang Fei and a group of cavalry were in hot pursuit.
On the galloping horse, Zhang Fei bent his bow and set an arrow, aiming at the fleeing deer. He let go of the bowstring, and with a whoosh, the arrow flew away from the string.
The wind was strong, the riding was unstable, and the wild deer was wary. Zhang Fei shot an arrow, but the deer suddenly turned around and threw the arrow away.
The fleeing deer was driven into a heavy siege. In front, many archers pulled a thin circle around it. The hunters howled and screamed to drive the deer away, trying to drive the deer back inside.
There were dangers ahead and behind, and the deer stopped, spinning in circles uneasily, its big eyes full of panic.
At this time, there was a sudden chirping sound and a gun shot into the open space in front of the fawn. The fawn was frightened, jumped up violently, and bumped to the left without hesitation.
Chirp!
Another sharp call and a chirp stopped the deer head-on. The deer was frightened again and turned back in fright.
Chirp!
Mingdi shot one after another in the direction of the fawn's escape. Finally, Mingdi's arrow hit the fawn's neck, and the fawn fell to the ground on the spot.
"Haha! Lu Zhong, you are so good at using the hammer!" Amidst the sound of horse hooves, Zhang Fei, who drew back his bow and laughed, rushed over.
The snow was heavy, and Zhang Fei's shoulders were covered with snow.
Lu Zhong, who was responsible for the encirclement on the opposite side, drove his horse over and bowed his head twice. Zhang Fei looked at the bow in Lu Zhong's hand and the quiver hanging around the horse's neck. Zhang Fei thought thoughtfully and said, "This is how to use Ming Dy."
.I, Mr. Zhang, always thought that the sound of the Dy would scare away the beasts, but I never use it, but you, Lu Zhong, are knowledgeable, haha!"
Zhang Fei, who had received important inspiration, immediately took out a frozen and hard brush from his waist without hesitation, and then took out a long strip of linen cloth from his arms.
After licking the brush with his mouth, Zhang Fei picked up the cloth and wrote, [The seventh method is to use the hammer to block the escape direction of the beast when hunting animals.]
Zhang Fei has been out hunting for several days, and his military hunting methods have been improved to the seventh point.
The first six items are:
[First, gather in the forest to surround and shoot, do not throw. 】
The first reason for this is that when he first came out to hunt, Zhang Fei had no experience in large-scale hunting, nor did any of the archers. Then when he was shooting arrows around a forest, an arrow shot from one end to the other, and it was so fatal.
Immortal, it happened to hit an archer on the temple.
If Li Mengxi hadn't specially mobilized armors and helmets to distribute to the soldiers before Zhang Fei set off, Zhang Fei's hunting team would probably have suffered casualties.
Li Mengxi's original intention of raising armor and helmets for Zhang Fei was to prevent ferocious beasts such as tigers and wolves from hurting people. Wearing armor with an iron stomach can provide some protection. Li Mengxi's original intention was to protect against ferocious beasts. He simply thought that he would be accidentally injured by a stray arrow while hunting.
thing.
However, although he didn't know much about hunting, the preparations he made just reduced the chance of accidental damage from stray arrows.
Li Mengxi's casual arrangement saved the lives of the soldiers.
This point, when hunting, arrows cannot be thrown. This is the first rule of military hunting that Zhang Fei wrote down after beating the person to death when he almost shot the person to death.
Article 2.
[Second, when hunting, you need to bring shovels, hoes and other items. 】
When the hunting team came out with the giant deer, both Li Mengxi and Zhang Fei had given a lot of thought to the hunting matters. However, no matter how much they prepared, there were still things they had not considered.
During the hunting process, one day, while resting in the evening, some sharp-eyed soldiers saw a rabbit hole in the weeds. As a result, everyone dug with guns, guns, and knives, and dug out the rabbit hole.
When he couldn't find it, he took out a hedgehog.
This second addition to the hunting law states that when hunting, you must bring a shovel or a hoe, because in addition to the birds and animals that fly in the sky and walk on the land, you will often encounter hedgehog holes, badger holes, and fox holes when hunting.
A den such as a cave.
At this time, I only have a long bow and sharp arrows, so I cannot catch the beast in the cave, so I have to bring a shovel and a hoe when hunting.
But this time, from a distance, Zhang Fei didn't bring a shovel or hoe.
Then during the hunting process, I encountered a lot of rabbit holes, and they appeared from time to time.
If you don't have a shovel, it's hard to dig with a knife and kill someone.
The third item recorded by Zhang Fei is, "There is not enough firewood, and the dry firewood I carry is only enough to make a fire for cooking, but not enough to smoke the beast's den."
If there is enough firewood and you see an animal's den, light firewood and smoke it, and soon the smoke will come out of the cave from another place.
In this way, although the cunning rabbit has three burrows, they are all hidden in the wild grass. There is no need to search hard. All you need to do is to use smoke. The smoke will come out from the side. Then you can wait for someone to guard the burrow. There is no need to dig out the burrow, and it can be guarded in a moment.
And get the rabbit.]
This third item, like the second item, is also about animal dens. After Zhang Fei and Lu Zhong chatted and discussed, they came up with the method of smoking rabbits.
Fortunately, Zhang Fei had rich hunting experience. If Li Mengxi had come, he would not have thought of smoking rabbits so easily.
In the same way, not only can rabbit holes be fumigated, but if there is a cave and it is difficult to enter, there is no need to enter it, just take firewood and smoke it out, and all the wolves, worms, tigers and leopards will be smoked out.
This point also involves logistics. As Zhang Fei recorded, when he came out, he didn't bring much firewood. He only brought enough firewood for cooking. He didn't bring firewood for smoking rabbits, and it was freezing and snowy.
The fourth point, Zhang Fei recorded as, [Camp in the wild, guard against wolves.]
There were wolves in the Julu territory. Zhang Fei and the others hunted prey every day, and processed the prey on the same day. The processed meat was either eaten or put in the car, and the animal skins were hung outside to dry, bloody
The smell carried far away due to the wind, attracting the wolf.
The wolf didn't hurt anyone, but Zhang Fei was so frightened that he couldn't sleep all night.
Zhang Fei originally thought that going out for hunting was not a war, so setting up camp would not be too troublesome. However, after this incident, Zhang Fei became more cautious. When he camped in the wild again, he had twice as many night watchmen.
Article 5, [For military hunting, it is better to have two to three hundred people, but more will be useless.]
This can only be a conclusion drawn after practice.
There is no standard answer to the question of how many people are suitable for hunting, and it requires special considerations in special areas.
If it were outside the Pass, in a place with white mountains and black waters, dangerous mountains and deep waters, then 1,800 people hunting around it would not be considered too many.
But giant deer are different from those outside the pass. The ground is flat but the forest is narrow. Zhang Fei has been hunting for so many days, and the largest piece of forest he encountered surrounded the entire forest. One person could take ten steps, and less than three hundred people could completely surround the forest.
There are as many as a thousand people in the hunting team, and each thousand people go to surround a forest. There are so many people that there is no place to go.
Therefore, Zhang Fei felt that in Julu, a team of at most three hundred people would be enough.
For this reason, Zhang Fei divided the thousand-man hunting team into three teams and dispersed in different directions.
To the sixth article, [The live rabbits were frozen to death overnight and cannot be fed.]
Li Mengxi's idea, the method that Li Mengxi summed up to solve the food crisis, is the stocking method. This stocking method, and because the army lacks chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep and other poultry and livestock, it will be difficult to buy them for a while, Li Mengxi thought of it.
You can catch hares, deer and the like and raise them.
If a fawn is raised in the forest for a month without any food, it will reach half its size and gain more than ten kilograms of meat.
With this method, wouldn’t it be possible to harvest some meat?
Zhang Fei was very serious about doing what Li Mengxi told him. Remember to catch some live animals. Zhang Fei did catch some live rabbits, but he didn't take good care of them. The rabbits tied their legs and put them in the tent. When he got up the next day, he took a look.
, the rabbit froze to death, frozen stiff.
Therefore, Zhang Fei discovered a major logistical problem for the hunting team. It is possible to catch rabbits and wild deer, but where to catch them? They need cages.
The six methods of military hunting recorded by Zhang Fei are as above.
Just now, Zhang Fei was surprised to find that Lu Zhong used a chirping dynamite to shine in front of the fawn, knocking it headless. Zhang Fei used this to learn the seventh method of military hunting, the special role of the dynamite in hunting, and used
To intercept prey.
On the snow, a deer was lying on the snow. A hammer was nailed deep into its neck. The deer had been shot to death.
Zhang Fei frowned. This deer was too small. It would be great if he could catch it alive and send it back to be raised. But he accidentally shot it to death.
After thinking about it, Zhang Fei took out his pen and wrote again, "If you want to capture someone, if the bow and arrow are not suitable, you should use another weapon."
Thinking of capturing but not killing, Zhang Fei suddenly had an inspiration. He thought of the messy prisoner-catching tools that the military advisor had made in order to capture more prisoners during the battle with the Yellow Turbans...
Zhang Fei hurriedly remembered, "Long whip, when whipped with a long whip, it makes a loud sound in the air, which is the same as the sound of a hammer. A long whip can also scare ferocious beasts."
Mix the sheep's ropes, tie two long ropes to small stones, and use branches to entangle animals.
In addition, using lasso and locust stones, the cavalry can use long sticks to attack the beasts without using long spears, so they can catch them without hurting them.]
After finishing writing, Zhang Fei thought that he could go back to the military advisor to make a summary when he had time to see what other ways to capture the beast.
Since Zhang Fei can associate the art of catching animals from the tactics of capturing prisoners, Li Mengxi also has the art of capturing generals. They tie stones with fish nets and throw them out. Whoever is caught in the net cannot escape. If Lu Bu is covered, Lu Bu cannot escape. You can also spread lime.
Lu Bu would also be doomed if his eyes were blurred by lime. In the same way, if you want to catch a tiger alive, you must try adding lime to the fishing net.
Also, to capture Lu Bu, you can have a large group of soldiers pull a long rope at a distance, and keep pulling the rope to hit Lu Bu. Lu Bu couldn't cut anyone with his strength, but was hit by the rope and became unstable. After a while, he was killed.
The rope is tangled up. The same goes for the tiger. A long rope formation is a good way to catch the tiger.
Also, in the art of capturing generals, there is a method of shooting a crossbow at the bottom of the body, and the same is true for catching tigers. If the crossbow is fired at the tiger's limbs, it is very likely that the tiger will be shot to death directly, but there is a certain possibility that the tiger can be captured alive.
