Chapter 4 Hunting Wild Animals
◎Finally go out to let the wind go, go hunting, happy, the meat is delicious. ◎
Gu Zeyu had shown his talents in the army, but he was neither nervous nor afraid.
I still go to training as usual every day, and I also met a few brothers. I fell asleep after training every day, and I still have time to inquire about the generals in the army. Later, I silently followed General Xing and mixed with General Xing.
His temperament is very bold and loyal, and because of his knowledge in modern times, he is naturally very extraordinary, and he often comes up with some good ideas.
For example, when training recruits with General Xing, he suggested setting up a reward system. If the training is done well, he will be rewarded with eating meat. If the training is not good, he will be rewarded with cabbage and radish. Divide into groups, a group of ten people, the top three groups will be rewarded, and the last three groups will even eat pickles and pancakes, which are still hard.
Such a system has greatly improved the motivation of recruits to train. You must know that most of these recruits are peasants or they came to serve as soldiers when they couldn't survive. I don't know if they can eat meat once a month. to meat.
Now, it's crazy to be able to eat meat as long as you train hard.
In order to eat meat, you will never imagine how hard the recruits can work. In order not to let the members of the team lag behind, they even practice in the middle of the night to make up for their shortcomings. Although the recruit training is not long for a month, it is enough to make these guys reborn.
And because they almost took turns to win the top three, each of them has a strong body and looks like a strong man.
Seeing such a result, Old General Xing originally felt sorry for the meat for the recruits, but when he saw this group of energetic soldiers, he couldn't help grinning. He thought they were elite soldiers just by their imposing manner.
In the past, recruits, as the bottom of the entire military camp, were always oppressed, and their food was so-so, and they were punished, scolded, and their food was deducted at every turn. One point, two hits, and it would be completely dead on the battlefield.
Because of this good idea, Old General Xing valued Gu Zeyu more and more. Even Gu Zeyu readily agreed to take a team of soldiers to hunt, but told him to pay attention to safety and return before nightfall.
Gu Zeyu nodded repeatedly, and said: "Don't worry, General, I will bring them back after I take them out, and wait until I hunt a deer for you, you don't like to eat venison the most."
General Xing laughed and said: "It's hard for you kid to still think about what I like to eat. Let's go."
Gu Zeyu went out with a group of men. There are several mountains near the barracks. Naturally, there are many animals, but there may be wolves and bears, which are more dangerous, but Gu Zeyu is naturally not afraid. It is also excellent, as long as they cooperate well, escape is not a problem.
After arriving in the deep forest, Xiong Dazhi, the man next to Gu Zeyu, said, "Brother Gu, why are we still not doing anything? What are you doing walking around here?"
Gu Zeyu pointed to the traces on the ground and said, "Of course we are looking for traces of deer. Look at the traces, do they look like deer footprints?"
Xiong Dazhi scratched his head and smiled honestly, "I can't see that."
He said in admiration, "Brother Gu, you know a lot."
Gu Zeyu led several people towards one direction, and let others spread out to catch some other animals, such as rabbits, pheasants and so on.
Gu Zeyu also encountered many small animals along the way in this direction, such as pheasants, spores, and even wild ducks, and they accepted them all according to their orders.
After walking for about an hour, Gu Zeyu and the others saw a small stream where several small animals were drinking water, but there were no sika deer. Seeing them pass by, the small animals quickly ran away.
Gu Zeyu also said that he would stop chasing and rest first.
Unexpectedly, when I walked to the creek, I saw a lot of fish in the crystal-clear creek. There must be no natural enemies. All of them are fat and fat, weighing as much as two catties. I am so happy now that I came here It's been more than a year and I haven't eaten fish, but I've had fish soup.
Gu Zeyu said: "Brothers, let's catch some fish and go back to eat. The fish here is so fat and delicious, it must be delicious."
Xiong Dazhi looked at the fish and said with a tangled expression, "Brother Gu, do you really want to catch fish? What's so delicious about fish? It smells fishy and has many spines."
Gu Zeyu knew that they didn't know how to handle fish, so he said this, so he rolled up his sleeves, took off his shoes and stepped into the stream, looked at them and said, "This fish is actually delicious, as long as you handle it well, on the way here I saw the seasoning that removes the fishy smell, and it tastes delicious, whether it’s steamed, boiled, or fried.”
Then he added, "It's also delicious when baked."
Seeing that they didn't believe it, Gu Zeyu really wanted to have a grilled fish on the spot, but time was short and he hadn't caught enough prey, so he could only say: "I'll catch some, and you'll know when you get back to the barracks and try it."
So he caught five fish by himself, tied them up with straw ropes, and prepared to leave.
When he came, he boasted that he was going to hunt a deer for General Xing, but now he hasn't even seen the deer hair after coming for so long.
I have to find it quickly.
So I said to my brothers: "Everyone spread out and look for signs of deer separately. Be careful. If you encounter danger, use the whistle as a signal."
Gu Zeyu walked in one direction by himself, and he simply hung the fish high on a tree by the stream, holding the fish that was still moving from time to time, it was really easy to make noise, and it was easy to scare the snake.
You must know that a deer is a very sensitive and alert creature.
Gu Zeyu searched slowly like this, and after a while, he really found it.
In a bush not far away, there was a small deer grazing leisurely, and there was no big deer waiting around.
Gu Zeyu thought that God helped me, as long as he was careful, he could still catch the deer.
So he took out the bow and arrow that had been useless behind his back, pulled the string fully, and only waited for the fatal blow.
But the deer seemed to realize that someone was staring at it, and walked away from the bush.
Not long after it took a few steps, Gu Zeyu's arrow shot out and hit the deer's neck. After struggling for a while, the deer finally fell down and wailed for a lifetime.
Gu Zeyu just came out, tied the deer with the rope at hand, carried it away, and left. For him, the two hundred catties of deer were not a problem at all.
At this time, Gu Zeyu decided to go back and bring the fish, and then go to find his brothers. This deep forest is also dangerous, so it's better to meet up first.
After taking the fish, I saw wild ginger in the woods, so I planed some of it by the way. Among Gu Zeyu's few kitchen knowledge, this ginger is the best for removing fishy smell.
Gu Zeyu saw several footprints and guessed that the three of them walked together, so he planned to follow the footprints to find his brothers.
Seeing a few people after a while, Gu Zeyu called out: "Shitou, He Jin, Lin Fei, you are here, I'm here to find you."
When they saw Gu Zeyu, they greeted him warmly.
"Brother Gu, you're here, look what we found." He Jin pointed at a wild ginseng that had just been dug out and was only as long as a little finger.He Jin was really excited. When he was a child, he had seen fellow villagers dig up wild ginseng and sold it for a large sum of money, so he was extremely excited now.
The other two were fine, but they were also very happy to express their joy.
"Is this going to sell for a lot of silver?"
"But it's too small. It's probably very old, so it's not worth much."
Gu Zeyu didn't understand ginseng either, so he just told them to keep it well and ask the military doctor about the value when they returned to the barracks.
Here, the few people saw Gu Zeyu carrying a deer again, and their moods were agitated again.
"Brother Gu, did you catch the deer alone? You are so good."
He murmured in his heart again, although it is a young deer, it is also very heavy, Brother Gu, he picked it up with one hand, his strength is really great.
Gu Zeyu replied: "Fortunately, this young deer is stupid and can't run fast, so I didn't catch it."
He said again: "I don't think it's getting too early, why don't we honk the whistle to find other brothers."
The rest of the people also agreed, so they played the flute from time to time along the way, hoping that other brothers could hear it.
Gu Zeyu saw that they caught several fat rabbits in their hands again, and couldn't help swallowing, he hadn't eaten rabbit meat for a long time.
So he said: "Shitou, you have caught so many rabbits, and they are all so fat. You have ripped out the rabbit's nest."
Shitou smiled and said, "Brother Gu, how did you guess so accurately? We did pick up the rabbit's nest, but two rabbits were too small, so we didn't catch them. They weren't big enough to fit between our teeth."
Gu Zeyu said: "That's good, Shitou, you kid also understands sustainable development."
Shitou doesn't know much about sustainable development, but looking at the literal meaning, it means continuous development, and he understands in a trance that he let the little rabbits go, let them live, and continue to give birth to rabbits.
Shi Shi said: "Brother Gu, your words are quite appropriate, yes, that's the idea."
Gu Zeyu smiled and said nothing.
Carrying the deer and fish all the way, Gu Zeyu was actually a little tired, and he was afraid that the bloody smell of the deer would attract big carnivores, which would be bad.
So he said: "Let's go quickly, I'm afraid this deer will attract some big guy."
The others naturally agreed, and He Jin asked him if he wanted to help fetch the deer. Gu Zeyu felt that he could still carry it, so he said that he would just help fetch the fish.
He Jin picked up the fish without saying anything, and everyone walked silently, honking their horns from time to time.
Soon, I met several brothers. Everyone was amazed when they saw the deer, and they also showed their prey, including spores, pheasants, and even wild eggs. They also picked up a lot of mushrooms with cloth.
Among them are the fat and big chicken fir mushrooms, and some shiitake mushrooms, mushrooms like mushrooms.
In less than half an hour, everyone gathered together, sharing their knowledge of finding food, laughing and very happy.
Because I haven't been out of the military camp for a long time, I am naturally happy after relaxing, and because I have caught so many game and found many usable things that can improve my food, I naturally exude a kind of joy from the bottom of my heart.
When the big guys were chatting, they were almost out of the deep forest, so they had no scruples. Naturally, Gu Zeyu didn't care about them, because he was also involved.
A group of men chatted about their prey, what they had seen and heard, and of course they also talked about their hometown.
I can't take it anymore.
For a moment, I miss my hometown, my father and mother, my wife, and even the person I love, all of which come out, and I can't stop it.
When they got back to the barracks, everyone restrained themselves again. The men always don't want people to know their sentiments when they are outside.
