Chapter 537: Military Dog Soldiers

Gu Jixiang handed the small copper spoon to the man, and the dog really opened his mouth to catch the meat and ate it, and his tail wagged.

After feeding more than a dozen spoonfuls in a row, watching the dog eat deliciously, the man who had been hungry for two or three days couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Hearing the man's stomach gurgling, the careful Gu Jixiang handed him a cooking cake, the man glanced at the young man gratefully, and swallowed the cooking cake in three or two bites.

At this time, the medical soldier who had been observing the big dog said: "I am Langzhong in the army, I want to see where the dog is injured, can you guarantee that it will not bite me." ”

"No, no, the 'winged tiger' is smart, it can distinguish between good guys and bad guys, and it won't bite indiscriminately."

At this time, seven or eight Sichuan troops were also intercepted by Gu Kui, and these people immediately cheered when they learned that they had encountered the "Red Flag Army".

The leader of the team is still a general flag officer, and now his general flag, which was only half of the people, has been removed, and even a small flag is not enough.

He saw that Gu Kui was wearing the regular uniform of a civil official from the sixth grade, and hugged his fists and said: "The humble position and a few brothers ran in this direction just to find the 'Red Flag Army', in order to find General Zhang, we didn't do anything evil to rob the house, and when we grabbed some food to satisfy our hunger, we tried not to kill people as much as possible, and begged the adults to take them in." ”

Gu Kui knew that the "Red Banner Army" discipline could not be used to consider other Ming troops, as long as the Sichuan army did not commit the crimes of killing good people, intentional homicide, and raping women, they could be taken in.

He promised: "Brothers of the Sichuan Army, please rest assured, as long as there is no bloody case in your hands, the 'Red Flag Army' guarantees that everyone has no worries about food and clothing, and you will eat a few mouthfuls of dry food to cushion your stomach." ”

Gu Jixiang chatted with the man with a match or not, and asked about the ins and outs.

The day before yesterday, when he came home from hunting in the mountains, he found that the Liukou had crossed the border, and it had become a scorched earth, and his parents, wife and children and other seven people were missing.

When he took the hunting dog "Winged Tiger" to smell the smell and go to look for his family, he encountered dozens of rogues on the way, and escaped after a fight, and the hound was injured by the rogues in order to save him.

Ge Daben also told Gu Jixiang that the reason why the "winged tiger" was injured was entirely because it was about to give birth, and his movements were not very flexible.

The veterinarian in the army only took care of large animals such as horses, mules, and cows, and had no experience in treating dogs, and the medical soldier was even more unsure if he was not a veterinarian, so he could only check the wounds of the "winged tiger" and disinfect them, suture and bandage them, and then put a splint on the broken leg.

It's just that the dog probably won't know how to rest and rest, what if it runs around?

This dog really has an aura, and under the comfort of Ge Daben, he shivered in pain when disinfected with alcohol, but he actually held back and did not move, and his legs were tied to a splint and he did not struggle.

Gu Jixiang was young, and he liked it very much when he saw this dog being so obedient, so he got to the bottom of it and learned that Ge Daben was a well-known dog trainer, and too many of Orion's dogs were bought from his family.

Young people like new things, and Gu Jixiang is no exception, so he has to learn the skills of dog training from Ge Daben at the moment, and try to persuade him to stay and join the "Red Flag Army" as a miscellaneous officer.

Gu Jixiang told Ge Daben that the "Red Banner Army" had killed thousands of Tartars and Jiannu outside the Guanguan and Beizhili, and had killed tens of thousands of rogues and saved more than 100,000 ordinary people when they came to Henan.

Obviously, Ge Daben lived in the mountains and had never heard of the "Red Flag Army" generals who were suspicious, but he trusted Gu Jixiang, a clear-eyed young man, and promised to stay in the army, but he had to bring a "winged tiger".

Ge Daben also thought in his heart, his family was ruined, his old mother and his wife and children were gone, and it was difficult to find it by himself, and he might have a chance to follow the Ming army.

He believes that as long as there is a "winged tiger" by his side, there is hope of finding a family, which is one of the reasons why he can't afford to lose this hunting dog no matter what, and the dog remembers the smell of the Ge Daben family.

Under normal circumstances, the common people who are new to the army start from miscellaneous service, and only those with outstanding performance and those with a skill can be given priority in the selection of the guard.

Next, after being selected again, they can become regular soldiers of the "Red Banner Army", and the shortest period of time for special talents will take two or three months.

Moreover, this Ge Daben's situation is even more special, he still has to hold a big dog with an injured leg all day long, I am afraid that he will not be able to work, and I am afraid that he will not be able to hold a dog for military training, Gu Jixiang does not dare to call the shots to give special care, and come to ask for advice.

After asking the reason, Huang Han made a special statement on the spot, indicating that having dog training skills is also a skill.

Moreover, Ge Daben was a hunter in the deep mountains and was good at archery, so he directly gave him the qualification of a reserve soldier, and temporarily followed the personal guards, and Gu Jixiang was responsible for taking care of this person and a dog.

In the future, the "Red Banner Army" will have countless opportunities to go into the mountains to search for and suppress the Liukou, Jiannu, and Tartars, and if they have a military dog soldier, they will get twice the result with half the effort, and with the military dog soldiers participating in the deployment of latent posts, it will be easier to be the first to discover the approaching enemy.

All in all, in ancient times when technology was not developed, the clever use of the dog's superhuman sense of hearing and smell would improve the search efficiency and increase the defense effect.

After returning to Houjiazhuang, Huang Han asked Gu Jixiang and Ge Daben to select ten young hunters from among the young men who had already served with the army as the first batch of military dog soldiers, and of course the selected people had their own hunting dogs.

However, in today's chaos, it is not easy to keep a hunting dog of dozens of pounds in an environment where everyone is likely to be killed and eat meat, and these people have lost their dogs without exception.

When they learned that they were selected as reserve military dog soldiers, not only was their salary improved, but they also had at least one military dog of their own, and it was easier to get the opportunity to become regular soldiers, and everyone was elated.

Gu Jixiang knew that it was definitely inappropriate for the dog he rescued to be called "Winged Tiger", so after consulting with Ge Daben, he renamed the first working dog of the "Red Flag Army" and called Ge Erben.

Ge Daben has a deep relationship with the "winged tiger" who changed his name to Ge Erben, and holds it every day, whether it is on the march or going out on business.

The four-year-old dog was also improving, and gave birth to a litter of four puppies seven days later, as if Gu Jixiang had a son with his daughter-in-law.

Ge Daben has no culture, the original name given to the dog was a chance, I listened to a storyteller's Water Margin, and remembered the name "winged tiger".

Gu Jixiang told him that the name "Winged Tiger" might not be used anymore, there were too many heroes with the nickname "Winged Tiger", and if he encountered it, he would get into trouble.

Ge Daben simply let the dog follow his surname, and now the Ge family has three more Ge books, four Ge books, five books, and six books.

A few days later, Gu Jixiang and Ge Daben took ten reserve army dog soldiers to Zhangde Fucheng, Tangyin, Linzhang and other counties and Cizhou to find and select hunting dogs.

Gu Jixiang was responsible for buying the dogs that Ge Daben fancied for money, and now the "Red Flag Army" has 22 military dogs in training.
