With a soft "plop" followed by a muffled groan, it was clear that someone was injured.
This provocation spurred the others to act even more ruthlessly, but in their haste, they also revealed more weaknesses.
Just as Jian Dan arrived, he saw the young man named Qiangzi being rammed into a tree trunk by a wild boar. He was temporarily unable to move due to exhaustion, and the boar's large head was hovering above him, agitated by the smell of blood. It bared its tusks and approached the man. The others, who were being entangled by the boar, wished they had more legs to run over and shield him.
"Qiangzi!"
"Qiangzi!"
Zheng Aiguo couldn't help it either.
"Political Commissar, I'll go check on him,"
"Go quickly, Xiao Yi, you go too, be careful."
For many people, the actions before their eyes seemed to be in slow motion.
Someone, in a fit of rage, killed the wild boar in front of him with a single blow, then turned and fled.
Battalion Commander Xu and his men worked together to knock down the huge beast in front of them, only to find that Qiangzi was completely blocked by the wild boar.
"Qiangzi!"
Qiangzi himself thought he was about to be devoured by pigs. Although he felt a bit aggrieved, he had fought bravely. It can only be said that he was no match for pigs.
He closed his eyes with regret, and then heard a "thud" sound. He knew that it was a knife piercing his flesh, and it sounded like bones were breaking. But why didn't he feel any pain?
Is he already dead?
Immediately, the smelly, large head of a wild boar, carrying a warm liquid, fell onto him at point-blank range, soaking his cotton-padded clothes. Only then did he realize something was wrong.
"Huh? Huh?"
Then the heavy objects were lifted off his body, and as he felt lighter, Qiangzi heard a heavenly voice.
"How are you? Are you still alive?"
Zheng Aiguo, who had just arrived, was also nervous.
"Sister-in-law, how is Qiangzi? Is there any hope for him?"
He casually tossed the wild boar aside, and by sheer coincidence, the small wild boar that Qin Yi had kicked over was crushed under his body and killed instantly. The two young soldiers following behind, along with Qin Yi, were all stunned on the spot.
You can play it like this?
"Sister-in-law, are you serious?"
Simply raise your chin.
"You're the ones who should be taking this seriously. Hurry up and check on him. If you don't deal with it soon, he'll be suffocated by the fumes too."
The smell of blood is strong here, so you guys hurry up and clean up the scene. I'll go check over there.
Xiao Yi, go ask the political commissar whether we should handle the situation here and continue up the mountain, or stop here. We need to hurry; the smell of blood will attract wild animals soon, and then we'll be in trouble.
Qin Yi and Zheng Aiguo exchanged a glance; one went to rescue the person, while the other went back to find someone.
The wild boar herd was scattered by them. Several baby wild boars were scared away. Jian Dan killed one and smashed another to death. Jiang Dashan and his men killed three more.
Battalion Commander Xu had killed two of the larger ones, and now he and Old Chen, along with three others, were dealing with the remaining largest one. They were all exhausted, their eyes were alert, but they were also panting heavily, and their arms and legs were trembling.
Battalion Commander Xu was so angry that he even swore.
"Old Chen, come around from behind. Be careful when you're having a baby."
Damn it, I don't believe that with so many soldiers like mine, I can be bullied by a beast like you.
"Get your act together, all of you! Kill this beast, and we'll go back and eat meat and drink wine!"
"yes!"
Simply standing by the tree and watching quietly, it's not without its benefits in fighting wild boars. This rare opportunity for real combat is also a form of growth for them.
The wild boar had many wounds, large and small, with strips of flesh turned outwards, which were quite glaring against its dark body. However, it seemed to be moving freely, so there should be no fatal wounds. On the contrary, these minor injuries made it more agitated, and it struggled around, leaving Battalion Commander Xu and his men at a loss.
"Damn it, this beast, all he does is kick."
The wild boar charged wildly, its rampage so violent that the men's weapons couldn't even touch them. Enraged, Battalion Commander Xu drew his gun.
"Get out of the way, I want to see if its skin is thicker or the bullets are more powerful?"
"Huh?"
The loud bang startled not only the soldiers nearby, but also put them on edge.
The bullet that grazed past her body completely enraged the wild boar, which ran away in a panic. Coincidentally, perhaps seeing that Jian Dan was small and easy to bully, it came straight at her.
Battalion Commander Xu and his men followed closely behind. Forget firing a shot, they were terrified when they saw there was another person there.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way now!"
Jian Dan was so angry she laughed. She really hadn't expected this. She had just wanted to watch the show today, but the wild boar had treated her like an easy target. However, she couldn't be blamed for being so arrogant. This was a free lunch, so she naturally wouldn't be polite.
She glanced at the people behind the wild boar, smiled simply, exuding a carefree air, and casually picked up her wood-chopping knife.
"Sister-in-law, get out of the way! Get up the tree!"
"Pfft!"
Without any fancy moves, the moment the wild boar charged in front of her, she stepped aside, took two quick steps, stepped on the tree trunk beside her, and leaped up to her height, raising her machete high.
It was just the right moment; the wild boar was turning around with its massive body, and the blade, instead of targeting the easily chosen nape of the neck, cleaved straight down from the middle of its head, splitting the boar's head in two. The blade then followed the force of the blow until it reached the neck before stopping.
After a half-second pause, bright red blood gushed out. Jian Dan reacted quickly by letting go and stepping back, but he couldn't avoid it. His left arm was sprayed directly, and his face was also splashed with several drops.
