Jiang Wenwan, out of curiosity, spurred the horse over to check.
It's a pile of poop. Speechless.
"Why is Xiao Hei reacting so strongly to this pile of poop?"
Zhou Yunting also noticed Xiao Hei's reaction and frowned, saying:
"That depends on whether this thing is a wolf's or some other animal's!"
Unfortunately, Xiao Hei couldn't speak, it could only bark to remind Jiang Wenwan.
"Xiao Hei probably meant that there is danger in the vicinity."
Let them come back, or better yet, be careful!
Zhou Yunting didn't dare to be careless and waved to Company Commander Zhao and the others in the distance.
They had been keeping a close eye on this area, which wasn't far away.
When they saw him beckoning, they all spurred their horses back.
"Has the battalion commander made any discoveries?"
"Does anyone know what that lump of poop is?"
The group rode forward to investigate.
Company Commander Zhao studied the lump of poop for a long time. They had been here for a long time and knew more about the wild animals in the area.
"It looks more like a wolf to me."
One of the soldiers said:
"Company commander, this doesn't look like something a wolf would pull, it looks like something a horse would pull."
"Ma Biao?"
"Oh, Ma Biao is what the locals call him. He is actually a jackal, which is the offspring of a fox and a wolf."
Don't let Ma Biao's small size fool you; this thing is one of the four great beasts here.
And it even ranks first!
When we talk about jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards, the jackal is usually ranked first.
They weighed about thirty kilograms and were only about one meter long, yet they were clever and cunning.
After the soldier finished speaking, Company Commander Zhao's expression also became serious.
"Jackals, wolves, snow leopards, and lynxes are the four major hunting legions of our Qilian Mountains."
If this is indeed a jackal, let's search the area further; there might be more.
I wonder where they're going?
This road leads to the foot of the Gona Snow Mountain, and to the right is also a good place for grazing, with abundant pasture.
We don't know exactly how many jackals there are. If there are many, they could really cause trouble if they encounter herders.
Jiang Wenwan and Zhou Yunting exchanged a glance, Zhou Yunting's expression turning serious.
"Search in three groups. Once you find the gunshot, use it as a warning."
"yes!"
The group split into three groups and headed in different directions.
Zhou Yunting, Jiang Wenwan, Company Commander Zhao, and another soldier headed down towards the Gona Snow Mountain.
There is a valley there with abundant pasture, and many herders choose to graze their livestock there.
When they arrived, there were already herders grazing their horses there.
"Old Xu, have you noticed anything unusual while you're grazing your livestock here?"
Old Xu and the others around him were curious when they saw Zhou Yunting and his group.
No, it's the same as usual.
What's wrong? Why are you here?
"A pack of more than forty wolves was discovered yesterday in the Guona Snow Mountain area."
We came to check on you, worried that you might have encountered any danger while herding your livestock.
"My God! More than forty of them, that's a huge wolf pack!"
We have not yet spotted any wolves or other wild animals.
"Alright, let's take another look around just in case."
"Bang!"
As soon as Zhou Yunting finished speaking, he heard gunshots from the left.
The group exchanged a glance and immediately spurred their horses to the left.
Old Xu was also surprised.
"On the left are Captain Guo and his team herding livestock."
Zhou Yunting turned around and said:
"Don't panic, we'll head over and provide support right away, let's go!"
When Jiang Wenwan and Zhou Yunting arrived, they found a pack of more than a dozen jackals that had already killed two horses.
"Bang bang...!"
The remaining jackals continued to attack the other horses, causing them to scatter in fright.
When the horses are running normally, these jackals dare not attack.
The horses were grazing leisurely when suddenly they were attacked and killed by the police.
"Woof!"
Little Black Dog charged ahead and bit at the jackal that was about to attack the horses.
Jiang Wenwan and Zhou Yunting and the others quickly opened fire as well.
"Bang! Bang bang bang!"
A pack of more than a dozen jackals was easily dealt with by these highly accurate marksmen, each firing two or three shots.
"Those damned horses! How did they suddenly come here and kill two of my horses! Sigh!"
Captain Guo felt sorry for the two horses that had been killed by Ma Biao.
Zhou Yunting could only offer him comfort.
"It's good that everyone is alright."
"Sigh, Battalion Commander Zhou, you don't know, with the loss of these two horses, our advanced brigade won't be able to be rated as an advanced unit this year."
"I hate these wild beasts the most. It's fortunate that you, Zhou Ying, were here today, otherwise there would have been further losses!"
Seeing the two horses that had been killed, Captain Guo was heartbroken.
Jiang Wenwan was also at a loss, so another soldier said:
"When we arrived, we saw a pack of jackals attacking them, so we opened fire immediately."
In the end, they still managed to kill two horses.
Zhou Yunting also shook his head.
"There was nothing we could do about it. Luckily we came today; otherwise, we would have suffered a great loss."
Now we must go and check other places to ensure that such potential problems are nipped in the bud.
Or look at Captain Guo.
"These two horses?"
"These two horses belong to our regiment, and now they've gotten into trouble with me. I'm really... sigh!"
Zhou Yunting sent a soldier to report the news to the regiment.
"This is due to factors beyond human control, so you can't be blamed."
I've already sent someone to inform the regiment; I believe someone will come to handle this matter soon.
Gunshots rang out from another location. Zhou Yunting and Jiang Wenwan exchanged a glance. Things haven't been peaceful in the Qilian Mountains lately!
Why are both wolf packs and jackal packs taking turns committing crimes?
