Chapter 210 Tiger Hunting on the Plains
In the wilderness, the knights galloped on horseback. The formation looked chaotic, but upon closer inspection, they were well-distributed. One hand was waving a whip and the other was swinging a drum. They cooperated with each other in tacit understanding to disturb all the beasts hiding in the grass. Drive to the middle area of the hunting ground.
On the Piyuan, Li Tai was wearing a black hakama pleated riding suit, with a plain white robe fluttering behind his shoulders. Under his crotch was a pure white horse, holding a bow in one hand and a knife in the other, galloping and prancing on the grass. Like a swimming dragon, there are hundreds of powerful people scattered around, it can be said that one call brings a hundred promises, and a look brings glory.
This piece of Piyuan is inaccessible all year round. Every midsummer, the vegetation becomes lush, and there are often tigers, wolves, bears and other ferocious beasts waiting in the area, preying on other beasts or the same kind.
Of course, if humans or animals accidentally enter here, those beasts will not eat anything. Therefore, from time to time, ferocious beasts kill herdsmen and livestock nearby. If these beasts are not hunted and eliminated, this plateau will be neither plowable nor grazing, even though the soil is fertile and the water and grass are abundant.
Dongxia Prefecture has a vast territory and sparsely populated areas, and there are many such places. Therefore, every year in spring and summer, it is the peak season for people and horses to hunt, not only to make up for the lack of farming and animal husbandry through hunting, but also to expand the space for human activities.
Of course, for Li Tai, there is another important meaning, which is military training.
Suddenly, a siren drum sounded loudly in the countryside. Li Taixun, who had just used his bow to kill a lone wolf, turned around and saw a tiger with stripes all over its body jumping out of a ravine covered with weeds and pounced on the nearest man. Knight mount.
The tiger appeared suddenly, but the knight who was attacked did not lose his vigilance and immediately hit the tiger with his staff.
The tiger leaping in the air swung its tail with a crackling sound, and its attack was a bit faster. Although the tiger's blade was swept by the copper ring of the staff, it still maintained its momentum, and the distance between them quickly became closer. The tiger claws of the forelimbs suddenly slapped, and a huge blood hole suddenly appeared in the abdomen of the knight's crotch. Both men and horses were thrown sideways, and blood and water splashed out for more than ten feet!
The strong bloody smell further stimulated the beast's ferocity. After it landed, it was ready to pounce. Before the tiger's body could leap up, two horsemen nearby had already rushed to rescue it. Two long-handled choppers forged by Baishui Workshop Ma Dadao slashed at them one after another.
The tiger also had sharp eyes and quick hands. He swung his claws and struck the front blade of the sword, breaking the blade in the middle with one claw. However, the rear sword could not avoid it and was cut into the gap between the tiger's blades.
Roar!
A violent tiger roar exploded from the plains, causing the leaves half a mile away to tremble. The beasts on the hunting ground became even more panicked after hearing the sound, and the fear in their blood was suddenly detonated. He no longer even tried to avoid the knights who were trying to stop him, but he was desperate to escape from here.
"Cure the formation and don't let this beast get away!"
Li Tai saw the injured tiger flying several feet away. He rode his horse forward, drew an arrow and raised his hand to shoot. The powerful arrow shot through the air, but it missed the tiger's side by a hair. in the land.
Several more arrows were shot out nearby, either being deflected by the turbulent tiger wind, or being swept down directly by the tiger's tail, which was like a steel whip.
When the tiger saw it, it was riding towards him. The knights were each waving the swords that had just cut them with cold light. A trace of fear flashed in the tiger's eyes. He tilted his head and licked the wound on his shoulder blade, and then used his hind legs to dig out two The huge earth pit suddenly flew towards Li Tai.
"Protect Master Lang..."
Seeing this, Zhang Shinu quickly shouted a warning and at the same time rode his horse straight forward. He leaned over the horse and swung his arms downwards to make a sharp slash. However, the tiger suddenly jumped and passed directly under the horse's belly. The castration was even more rapid.
Li Tai immediately dismounted from his horse, waving his sword and staff to block the fierce tiger. However, the galloping tiger suddenly leaped over ten feet and flew directly over the heads of the tribesmen, swooping down. In front of him is Li Tai, who is extremely eye-catching in his white robe and white horse.
At this moment, the hair on the back of Li Tai's neck was also exploding. He drew the knife in his hand and stared at the tiger's attack with both eyes. With a thunderous roar in his mouth, he held the knife in both hands and slashed it diagonally. At the moment when it intersected with the tiger's body , an astonishing collision force came from the knife, but he just held the handle of the knife firmly and gritted his teeth and pushed forward.
A shower of hot blood poured down his pocket, and the sharp-edged Sutie sword, which made Dugu Xin feel distressed, cut off the tiger's front paw directly under Li Tai's powerful slash.
Li Tai's hands shook, but he didn't have time to think about it. He withdrew his left arm and swung his elbow, hitting the tiger's belly, smashing the tiger's body to the side, and he was knocked off the horse, and he didn't have time to pay attention to the injuries on his body. Painful, he rolled and jumped up after landing. The blade of the sword in his hand turned downwards and pierced the abdominal ribs of the injured tiger lying on the ground.
He leaned up again to avoid the dying tiger's tail. The tiger missed a single blow and was still struggling. Its forelimbs were broken and injured, and its hind legs paved the ground and jumped. The tiger's body suddenly jumped up several feet, but unexpectedly someone grabbed the tiger's tail.
Li Tai grabbed the tiger's tail and swung it with both arms. He threw the huge tiger's body into the air and then threw it heavily to the ground. He let go of the tiger's tail with both hands and pounced on it. His hands were like iron pincers and he strangled the tiger's throat. He bent his knees and pounded the tiger. In the tiger's belly, blood foam continuously overflowed from the tiger's kiss and sprayed on his head and face. The smelly tiger breath soon became weak, and in the end, even organ fragments were sprayed out from the tiger's mouth.
All the tribesmen also rushed forward and pressed the tiger's body tightly with their bodies. When Li Tai was pulled away from the tiger's body, he still held a handful of tiger hairs in his hands.
When this happened, everyone in the hunting ground had no time to hunt other prey. They all came forward to see how the master was doing. When they saw such a fierce tiger, it was hunted by Li Tai with his hand. Li Tai's mouth was only slightly cracked and full. With tiger blood all over his body, there was thunderous joy for a moment.
Li Mu and his subordinates who were hunting in another hunting ground also heard the sound and came over. They saw the prey fleeing everywhere. Li Mu, who had hunted a lot, was still waiting to come in and laughed a few words. Only when he got closer did he realize that the subordinates were hunting. They were surrounding a grown-up tiger corpse and Li Tai, waving their arms, cheering, and applauding.
"Could this giant murderer be Bo Shan, who you personally hunted and killed?"
Li Mu turned over and dismounted, squeezed into the crowd, and went forward to inspect the death of the tiger. He saw that the tiger's throat had been strangled alive, and Li Tai had two tiger hairs on his hands. He couldn't help but asked in surprise.
After the crisis, Li Taicai felt that his limbs were stiff and sore, and he had to rely on some help to stand firm. However, seeing Li Mu's surprised look on his face, he smiled lightly and said: "This evil beast is really hateful. It soiled my fine robe. If It’s really hard to get rid of anger without suffocating it with your own hands!”
He came to this world and pretended a lot, but this time he felt that he was the most powerful. Of course, it would be even better if he could suppress his trembling with excitement.
Although Li Mu was also a fierce general, seeing that Li Tai actually hunted such a big tiger with his own hands, he felt admiration for a while, and at the same time he said with envy: "Such a majestic feat as Boshan's is really rare. Please, it’s not inferior to Yang Qianyu!”
After hearing this, Li Tai also laughed and waved his hands: "There are still many differences. They are fighting for life and death and fighting for survival with courage. They are in a panic and have no time to retreat, but Yang Kaifu responds calmly and pulls out his tongue with his hands. He is loyal and courageous."
He was still a bit nervous, and he didn't dare to think that he was stronger than Yang Zhong just because of this. It was really an extraordinary performance in a life-and-death situation just now. Seeing this tiger corpse that was more than ten feet long, I was still frightened for a while.
It was good to have experienced such an emergency once. He didn't want to experience it again. He couldn't help but sigh. No wonder Sun Quan, the great emperor of Wu, had to build a special iron cage to cover himself in a tiger-hunting vehicle when he was hunting. He really had to encounter such an unexpected situation. Level beasts are not a matter of whether they are well guarded or not.
Zhang Shinu and others also came forward to apologize with shame on their faces, but Li Tai also saw with his own eyes the tiger's posture of flying like the wind. They have hunted together many times, and this is the first time they have encountered such a critical situation. They just need to pay more attention in the future, but there is no need to pursue it further.
After all, the tacit understanding between each other is cultivated through many normal arrangements and unexpected situations.
"I'm exhausted today, but I've had a lot of fun, so I'll go back to camp and rest first. In the next few days, we will hunt extensively and clear out the plateau. Then we can arrange for the soldiers to fence for grazing. After autumn, we will harvest the pasture and set fire to it. The fields can be plowed next year, and hundreds of hectares of fertile land will be added within a few years!”
Li Tai moved his limbs, hands and feet, feeling that his strength was gradually recovering, and then ordered again.
When he saw that the carts carrying the prey of Li Mu and his entourage were already piled high, and there were still some small prey hanging on their saddles, he smiled and said: "It seems that you have won another victory today. When we return, I will take charge of the army." Cooking, what do you want to try today?"
When Li Mu heard this, he smiled and waved his hands and said: "Boshan, please don't shame me anymore. Just because you hunted this tiger, I will surrender. After returning to camp, I will put you in the tent and wait in peace. I will personally take care of you." This tiger will prepare a delicious meal for you!”
So the two groups of men and horses gathered together, collected the prey, and then returned to camp together.
Of course, the two of them were not just idle and indulging in hunting. Eastern Xia State was heavily deserted and wild animals were rampant, which caused great trouble to farming and herding.
Therefore, from the beginning of spring, they carried out hunting and clearing along the Kuli River in order to expand the scope of their farming. Of course, it's not just the hunting of wild beasts, but some of the Blackwater Husbands remaining in this area are also within the scope of the elimination.
All collected supplies of men and horses were used for daily consumption, and the rescued Hanhu Dingkou were used as manpower for farming and herding. As for the Jihu Dingzhuang, they were used as laborers to arrange the construction of two defensive cities and the excavation between Luoshui and Kulichuan. of artificial rivers.
After Li Tai returned to the camp, he changed out of his hakama pleated robe that was soaked in tiger blood. The camp soldiers were going to pick it up and take it out for cleaning, but he was unwilling to throw away this evidence of his bravery. His eyes turned to the rhinoceros leather sword on the case, and he couldn't help but smile.
He first ordered his soldiers to process the peeled tiger skin and put it into a delicate box together with his dirty clothes. Then he wrote a letter: "Although Beizhou is desolate and sparsely populated, it still has plenty of wild charm." , briefly describe a few things..."
He was still thinking about the words for the letter when several loud chirpings of eagles came from outside the tent, and soon a guard came in to announce that a visitor was coming. But at this moment, he was so full of thoughts that he asked the guests to wait in the camp without raising his head, and then continued to work at his desk.
