But one wolf can't beat two dogs.
Two dogs can't beat two wolves.
This is why true hunting ultimately comes down to numbers; if there are more dogs, the wolves are at a disadvantage. And if there are more wolves, the dogs can only maneuver around them.
However, if the number of dogs increases to a certain extent, their disadvantages will become more and more obvious.
Because dogs have poor teamwork skills, they usually obey their owners' commands, but once they lose their commands, they will act independently, only coming to the rescue when they see their companions in great danger.
Wolves are different. They have basically read half of Sun Tzu's Art of War. They are quite skilled at using tactics such as flanking maneuvers, luring the enemy deep into their territory, dividing and defeating them, feigning an attack while secretly advancing, and using diversionary tactics.
Hunters who have traversed the mountains mostly understand this principle.
It sounds simple, but when you're really in danger, you're gambling with your life.
In fact, many people who don't understand the situation tend to exaggerate the role of dogs, as if a bear could be easily subdued as long as the dog is willing to help.
But the reality is that if a wild boar weighing three or four hundred pounds runs into the village, even a dozen dogs might not be able to handle it.
Most of the stories about one or two dogs killing wild boars are just stories about Erlang Shen's celestial hounds, or about dogs bullying baby wild boars.
In hunting, there is only ever one truly powerful thing.
That's a gun.
If you don't have a gun, don't dream of hunting.
It can eat wolves until they're stuffed to death.
The Night Moon Wolf that Wang Tianxiao was facing was also known as the Northwest Wolf. It was one of the larger wolf species. They lived in extremely cold places for a long time, so they had thick fur on their bodies, were very stamina-rich, and were also very fierce.
It wasn't that he looked down on his three dogs, but rather that they were simply no match for them.
On this point, the three dogs clearly shared his opinion.
They just barked wildly in place, as if they wanted to tear the wolf to pieces, but their bodies were honest; they didn't move forward even a step, and their bodies even showed a slight tendency to retreat.
Animals often have an instinctive ability to judge danger, which is beyond what humans can do.
They have a natural ability to distinguish between strong and weak. When faced with great danger, they will immediately flee. When evenly matched or slightly inferior, they will show off and maneuver. Only when they feel that the other party is inferior to themselves will they launch a full-scale attack.
There are three of them. If there were only two wolves, the dogs would have pounced on them long ago.
Wang Tianxiao checked the time; it was 2:35 a.m., still a long time before dawn.
Night wolves are mainly active at night, and the hazy moonlight is their home turf, where they can best unleash their powerful night combat abilities.
As large carnivores, they mostly lurk in the deep mountains and know that humans are not to be trifled with, so they generally do not actively seek trouble with humans. However, once they choose humans as their target, it means that they have no other food to catch and are prepared to go all out, so they will try every means to hunt and kill humans.
We will not give up until we achieve our goal.
Wang Tianxiao glanced behind him; there was a precipice, its face very steep, making him certain the wolves wouldn't flank him. He pressed his body against the cliff face and aimed his gun at the three wolves.
When dealing with wolves, you must be careful to protect your rear. They hunt differently from felines like tigers and leopards. Felines use speed to overpower their prey, while wolves often ambush from behind, making them very cunning.
This is a test of endurance.
It is night now, and even though there are many stars in the sky, they can only emit a faint light.
If the wolves stand still, you can still see them clearly, but once they start moving, you can't keep up with their movements, let alone shoot them.
He calmly analyzed the situation on the scene.
If three dogs can take down two wolves, then he himself will have to take on the task of dealing with the remaining one. Once the dogs and wolves start fighting, he will be unable to take care of himself, and given the cunning nature of wolves, they will definitely take the opportunity to attack him.
Time passed second by second.
Wang Tianxiao felt the gun in his hand gradually becoming heavier and heavier.
My attention also began to relax.
Just then.
Suddenly, a howl was heard, and the three wolves instantly split into three groups, like the left, right and center armies in a war, and rushed towards this side.
"Woof woof woof!"
"Woof!"
"Waaaaah!"
In an instant, the fur on all three dogs' tails stood on end, and they braced their front paws against the ground, ready to fight back, awaiting Wang Tianxiao's command.
Wang Tianxiao's eyes narrowed.
He watched the wolf rushing towards him, but hesitated to utter the word "go".
You little wolf cub, trying to fool me, huh?
Don't you even know who I am?
He sneered, completely unfazed.
Sure enough, when the wolves were less than fifty meters away, they suddenly stopped running and stared at us with some confusion.
At this moment, Wang Tianxiao suddenly shouted, "Go!"
The three dogs were just short of shouting "Yes, sir!" before they shot out like arrows and pounced on the wolf pack.
Like war, animal fights are also a process of going all out. The wolves were ready to attack, but there was no reaction and their formation was not disrupted, so their plan failed. Just as they were preparing to regroup and try again, the dog suddenly rushed over.
They instinctively scattered and ran backward.
The three dogs gave chase, especially the strong wind, which was extremely fast and caught up with the lagging wolf first, launching the first round of attack.
Under the cover of darkness, Wang Tianxiao could not see the specific process of the tearing and biting, but he could see two hazy shadows rolling around, with the alternating howls of wolves and dogs constantly coming from them.
Ah Ying and Da Hei each guarded another direction, preventing the other two wolves from assisting their partner.
However, the strong wind was quickly defeated. It let out a mournful howl, scrambled to its feet, and turned to run back.
The wolf that had been fighting with it got up and gave chase.
Seeing her younger brother being defeated, Ah Ying hurriedly intercepted the wolf. She was bigger than her brother and stronger in combat. With one pounce, she pinned the wolf to the ground.
A new battle has officially begun.
Meanwhile, once Ah Ying was no longer guarding the area, another wolf quickly cut in and joined the attack, with both wolves attacking Ah Ying simultaneously.
The big black wolf on the left saw this but had no choice; it also had to be wary of the other wolf.
Fortunately, after running for a while, Dafeng discovered that his sister was being attacked, so he went back to join the battle. The two dogs were fighting against the two wolves. Because Aying was very fierce, although they were at a disadvantage for a while, they could barely hold on.
But as time went on, the dog's disadvantage of not being as good as the wolf's endurance quickly became apparent.
"return."
Wang Tianxiao suddenly shouted loudly.
Upon hearing the command, the two dogs ceased their fighting and turned to run back, with the wolf continuing its relentless pursuit. The two dogs weaved and circled, getting closer and closer to Wang Tianxiao.
When the wolves were only a few dozen meters away from Wang Tianxiao, they suddenly stopped. The three of them gathered together and stared silently at Wang Tianxiao and his three dogs.
They were quite intelligent; they knew Wang Tianxiao had a gun and could also determine the approximate range of the gun.
