As the former king of individual combat, the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle actually has an effective range of at least 400 meters, and with good marksmanship, it can cover up to 800 meters. If the accuracy of the target is not taken into account, it can cause damage to targets 1,500 meters away.
Therefore, this gun was once used as a sniper rifle by teams with the capability.
The problem is that you need a scope to aim at the target, and it's hard to see the target clearly in the dark. If you don't aim accurately, you might hurt the dog.
Wolf clearly understands that the weakness of this gun is that it cannot be used for concentrated attacks in a short period of time, but only for precise strikes, so he deliberately maintains a relatively safe distance.
This is something wild boars can't compare to. If a wild boar is provoked, it will only charge forward and easily become a target for being shot.
The battlefield has temporarily quieted down.
While keeping a watchful eye on the wolves, Wang Tianxiao also observed the situation of the three dogs.
Fortunately, apart from a small cut on her neck from the strong wind, she was fine everywhere else. Ah Ying is very good at protecting herself and was unharmed.
There is a fundamental difference between canines and felines in hunting or fighting. Felines have very flexible necks and highly adaptable bodies, so unless they are significantly stronger, it is difficult for them to defeat their opponents directly by relying on bite force.
Canines have very stiff bodies and are far less agile than felines, so they tend to probe more than fight and defend more than attack when they fight.
If you frequently observe dogs fighting, you'll know that they often spend their time barking and gesturing at each other in a show of defiance. Even when they finally manage to get together, before they've even touched anything, they immediately scatter again.
They value power highly. If two dogs are fighting one, they feel they have a much better chance of winning. They will fight desperately to the death to show off their strength.
So the dog fought with the wolf for a while but didn't suffer any fatal wounds. If it were a leopard, it would have bitten off the wolf's throat long ago.
Wang Tianxiao checked the time again; it was not yet three o'clock.
Time passed very slowly.
Both he and the wolf understood that the biggest factor in the outcome was time. If it got light, the rifle could quickly and accurately lock onto the target, and the wolf would definitely be at a disadvantage.
But as long as it's still night, the wolf has the upper hand.
In the Northwest, it gets light late in winter. To be able to clearly see wolves a few dozen meters away, you have to be there after seven o'clock.
Wang Tianxiao knew he couldn't wait that long; the wolves wouldn't allow it. In the four hours that followed, they would surely find a way to deal with themselves.
We will definitely have to try countless more attacks.
Sure enough, just as I was thinking about it, two of the three wolves disappeared, leaving only one waiting in the same spot.
Is this a plan to encircle them?
Wang Tianxiao pondered to himself that wolves are very good at using tactics. If they cannot defeat the enemy head-on, they will often look for a more advantageous angle of attack.
This includes ambushes, sneak attacks, and surprise attacks.
Wang Tianxiao and Cui Wanshan had previously encountered a pair of very cunning wolves. The male wolf repeatedly probed and provoked them to attract their attention, while the female wolf circled around for several kilometers before suddenly emerging from a stream, nearly killing Cui Wanshan.
It's just that Wang Tianxiao and his team are experienced; if they encountered an ordinary person, they would definitely offer them a feast on the spot.
He looked around again. He was in a recessed, sheltered spot, and there was nowhere else to get close except in front of him, unless a wolf fell from the sky.
The mountain wall was very sturdy, and it was impossible for a wolf to suddenly appear behind them.
In any case, they do not have the conditions to encircle the enemy.
Just then, the wolf guarding the front suddenly took off running and began to run rapidly toward him, alternating between fast and slow speeds and weaving left and right to avoid being shot.
A distance of tens of meters can be covered in the blink of an eye.
Seeing the wolf approaching, Dahei and Dafeng rushed out without waiting for Wang Tianxiao's orders. This counterattack was a dog's instinct, because the wolf had entered their safe zone, making them feel threatened.
Just as Wang Tianxiao had guessed, the wolf was indeed feigning an attack. Seeing the two dogs rushing towards it, it didn't linger and turned to run away.
Driven by animal instinct, the two dogs, seeing victory within their grasp, didn't know when to stop and chased after the dog.
Meanwhile, the moment the wolf turned around, Wang Tianxiao immediately became wary of those around him.
Sure enough, a wolf came rushing over from both the left and right sides at great speed, and was right in front of him in the blink of an eye. Ah Ying intercepted the one on the right, while he aimed his gun at the one on the left.
Fifty meters.
Forty meters
...
With the two less than twenty meters apart, he fired his gun.
"Bang!"
The wolf let out a painful howl, collapsed to the ground, and trembled uncontrollably.
"Awoo!"
A piercing scream echoed through the night sky.
Once Wang Tianxiao was certain that the wolf had been knocked to the ground, he put away his gun and sneered, "With your level of intelligence, you can't even handle an old patrolman who has lived two lives."
He held the gun and looked towards Ah Ying.
Big Black and Big Wind can definitely catch up with one, no problem at all, no need to worry too much. As long as Ah Ying can take care of her own one, the outcome will be decided.
At first glance, Ah Ying, his most capable patrol dog and the queen of the forest, was quite strong and could fight the wolf to a draw, without being at a disadvantage for the time being.
He finally felt relieved.
Although I was still a little puzzled as to why the wolf would choose such a suicidal attack method, which didn't seem very clever at all.
It would be difficult to be effective against someone who has a gun in his hand.
Snap!
A small pebble suddenly hit him on the head.
He had only casually looked up when his expression suddenly changed drastically, and he instinctively shouted, "Damn it!"
Above his head, an even stronger, pure black male wolf was secretly sliding down through the cracks in the rocks.
