It has been snowing for three days and three nights, and the winter nest that has always been sheltered from the wind and snow has begun to be covered with thick snow. The most terrible thing is that the temperature has dropped sharply, and the herdsmen have begun to carry those big-bellied ewes into the house.

Sheep in pastoral areas generally give birth in early spring, so that the lambs have enough time to grow up and have the physical strength to withstand the cold winter in northern Xinjiang.

But in this way, the entire pregnancy period of the ewe is basically in winter. The physical condition of ewes during pregnancy is poor, so herdsmen will add some feed to them in winter. After all, next year’s harvest is all in their bellies.

But no matter how you add it, it is just supplementary food, and sheep still need grass. But if the snow keeps falling like this, where will the sheep still have grass to eat? Without grass and severe cold, this would be a devastating blow to the sheep!

All road construction projects of the Corps have been suspended. The cold climate has frozen the ground as hard as stone, making it impossible to dig. The soldiers all returned to the company and continued their work.

Many companies will also take advantage of this weather to start military training and training. There may be people who frown upon this behavior. I think this is just sensationalism, but no one will think about it. If a war really breaks out, no one will look at the seasons and weather.

Zhang Jianmin walked around the company's winter dens all morning. The horse was almost unable to ride. The snow had basically reached the horse's knees. It was impossible for the horse to run at this depth. At any rate, the company's winter nest is not far away, so I can contact him if I need anything.

Back at the house, Li Lian and another companion had already gone to herd sheep. He looked at his watch. It was already past one o'clock at noon. So he quickly took a pot and dug out a few pots of snow, put as much snow as possible into the pot, and started steaming the steamed buns.

Don't worry that the snow in northern Xinjiang is not clean. For this land without industrial pollution, if the snow water here is tested, it will definitely be of reference level.

Due to the gradual increase in coal mines, Dongwozi has now begun to burn coal. This thing is resistant to heat and has a high temperature, so the temperature in the room is too hot to wear a coat.

Almost everyone in the Corps knows how to steam steamed buns, including the older boys. Just like most ethnic people know how to make naan, this is the most basic survival skill.

Each of Zhang Jianmin's steamed buns weighs almost half a catty, but with their appetite, each person would have to eat two steamed buns.

The steamed buns are steamed, and there is still a lot of mutton left over from last night. Zhang Jianmin put the pot on the stove, washed the potatoes and skin potatoes and threw them directly into the pot.

Every winter, a group of sheep are slaughtered. This is because the forage in the nest is tight in winter, and the mature sheep are basically put to slaughter at this time. Compared with the past when the sheep herders had no mutton to eat, Zhang Jianmin and his family had several sheep hanging outside their house. I can’t finish this.

Li Lian ducked his feet and walked into the house: "Jianmin, the snow is too heavy. If it continues like this, the sheep will not be able to eat grass."

"Well, let's guillotine some of the straw bales later and be prepared to not be able to get out!" Zhang Jianmin was already prepared to deal with the worst case scenario.

After dinner, Zhang Jianmin and Li Lian went out together to change their companions to herd sheep. The snow is too thick, and one person cannot drive the sheep. The sheep will also lose their way in this vast sea of ​​learning. Because everywhere you look there is the same color.

The advantage of a winter nest is that the sheep are close together. The two men walked for twenty minutes before they saw their flock. Zhang Jianmin shouted, and his companions went to eat. Zhang Jianmin walked towards the top of the mountain to graze sheep in the winter nest. As long as the sheep stayed out of the designated mountain col, there would be no danger.

The place that can be chosen as a winter nest is basically due to its special terrain. Not only is it leeward, but it is also in a ravine with relatively little snow. But when Zhang Jianmin climbed up the mountain, he could already feel that the snow on the hillside had become thicker.

Climbing to the top of the mountain, I saw several other sheep in the company. Zhang Jianmin shouted a few times, and the response from the other side came over. Sounds in the mountains travel farther than in the plains because there are echoes.

The top of the mountain is windy and has the least snow. Zhang Jianmin heard a few weak calls, looked down and smiled. It turned out that two snow chickens who could not find food were huddled behind a stone, and they were too hungry to fly.

Zhang Jianmin chuckled and grabbed the two snow chickens in his hands. He turned a blind eye to the beautiful feathers of the snow chicken. He only knew that this was a rare delicacy. I can't catch it normally.

Hu Zi saw the snow chicken in his hand and climbed up from the mountainside, running and jumping around Zhang Jianmin. Zhang Jianmin cursed: "You are so promising, why don't you wait until I cook it before you can eat it?"

Huzi yelled "Woof woof!" twice, as if to answer: "Retarded owner, who said dogs must eat cooked food?"

Suddenly, Huzi shouted in one direction. Zhang Jianmin took a look and didn't see anything clearly. He quickly took off the telescope hanging around his neck and looked in that direction.

I saw a few gray dots moving this way. It turned out that the wolves that could not find food were approaching the human grazing land.

Wolves are very smart creatures and rarely get close to humans. They know that this two-legged creature is their most dangerous enemy. Although their combat effectiveness is not strong, the weapons in their hands are powerful, and every blow from those weapons will cause them serious damage.

Zhang Jianmin frowned and took off the Type 56 submachine gun hanging on his shoulder. This gun is an imitation of the Soviet-made AK47, and its performance is extremely stable.

There are five wolves in this pack. He is not worried about what threats these wolves can bring? But this small group of wolves is definitely a family unit. Such wolves will all belong to a large wolf pack. Once the desperate wolves begin to gather towards their winter dens, there will be a real danger.

Think about hundreds of wolves gathering together to attack a flock of sheep. How many guns do you have to shoot them? What's more, those herdsmen don't have guns at all, so a small group of wolves will cause harm to them.

"Huzi, stop barking and let them come over!" Huzi seemed to understand his master's words and immediately fell silent, lying down and looking towards the foot of the mountain.

Several wolves had heard the barking of dogs just now, but they did not stop, but accelerated their pace, because where there are dogs, there will naturally be food.

But the barking of the dogs suddenly stopped, leaving the wolves a little confused. Has the food gone? The alpha wolf stopped, looked at the hilltop where he heard the sound just now, and decided to take his family up there to have a look.

This is an ordinary family of wolves. The alpha wolf is tall and his gray hair shines as if soaked in grease. After running in the snow for so long, not a single hair was wet.

Side by side with it was his wife, slightly smaller but also full of strength in her limbs. Behind them are three female wolves, which are also subordinates of the first wolf, but have a lower status. There is also a wolf cub. I wonder which female wolf gave birth to it and was adopted by the wolf king?

The cubs are male wolves and will naturally be expelled when they grow up. Otherwise, it will compete with the wolf for the position of wolf king.
