Chapter 148: Indoctrination and Domestication Continued

After the capture of some wildebeests, the domestication plan of Huang Poluo's supervisor achieved certain results.

Zebras can work like donkeys, and ostriches can be mounted...... Of course, this kind of domestication still needs to be done slowly to be completely domesticated, in order to completely prevent them from suddenly rebelling in the process of labor.

The zebra is no longer able to pull the car into the grass ditch, and can obediently turn around and grind, and it is not too much to think about breaking free from the halter.

Director Huang Poluo fell from the back of the ostrich dozens of times, and he finally conquered the ostrich and let it accept its fate.

Director Huang Poluo's method of using soybean cakes and leather whips to participate in domestication has once again had an effect.

Riding an ostrich, he triumphantly said to the cavalrymen of the reconnaissance squad: "Wait and see, I will build an ostrich militia......"

The cavalry squad leader also considered using an ostrich as a mount...... However, after learning more about it, it gave up, not to mention its stamina, and it was far less intelligent than the war horse, and its understanding ability was extremely poor.

War horses can be regarded as comrades-in-arms who can't speak on the battlefield, while ostriches can only be regarded as big chickens, which are used for play!

In the entire Nankaicheng area, only Director Huang Poluo has the patience and resistance to falling, and the others have long given up the idea of domesticating the ostrich as a mount...... Why don't you take a zebra-drawn carriage?

Director Huang Poluo fed the little lioness goat's milk, took care of the meat paste, and fed the water himself...... The little lioness clinged to him like a big cat.

He often said to others: "As long as you put your mind to it, nothing in the world can be changed, and nothing can be used by us...... My lion daughter, sooner or later, she will learn to take care of the house! ”

This confidence pervades the entire Namkaesong area...... The results of domesticating wildebeest are also good, as long as you give a little more time, there will be another kind of animal power here.

But soon after, Huang Poluo's self-confidence was hit......

He had never been so arrogant as to try to domesticate a rhinoceros or a hippopotamus, those two behemoths, he knew at first sight that they were unreasonable fellows, but he didn't want to put his heart into them, not to mention the waste of effort, it was possible to lose his life!

Not to mention elephants, too wild and violent...... If you don't want their tusks, you're better off never bothering them!

What hit his self-confidence was the buffalo here......

The buffalo was successfully domesticated by humans very early, and in the hometown of Huang Poluo, it has a docile temperament, is easy to train, and is mostly used to cultivate fields.

So, will the buffalo here be the same as the buffalo back home?

At first glance it all looks the same...... They all have two horns and black fur, but the buffalo here is much taller, almost twice the size of the buffalo in their hometown.

So, I should have been more able to work...... But he couldn't have been more wrong.

When Director Huang Poluo first dealt with the wild buffalo here, if it weren't for his ostrich mount not obeying the command and running away, he would probably have been killed or trampled to death by the buffalo!

Buffalo are one of the very few herbivores that can actively attack humans, or rather, they have a temper and will attack anything that moves, whatever it may be......

The point is that they lose their temper all the time, and they are not happy when a larger living creature appears in their field of vision.

The base of the horns of this buffalo is completely healed, forming a complete bony plate, like a bone shield, which grows separately on both sides of the head like the buffalo in his homeland.

It's like it has not only two spears, but also a shield and a terrible weight...... Terrible running speed.

At first, Supervisor Huang Poluo did not listen to the advice of the second lieutenant company commander and rode an ostrich alone to find a herd of buffalo...... Can't he take a look from afar?

No way!

He was unfortunate enough to walk to the wind, and a few hundred meters away, a buffalo in the herd rushed madly!

He also wanted to wait and see, a buffalo is a buffalo, how fast can it run?!

However, his mount, the ostrich, was gone, and the people immediately turned and fled, no matter how Director Huang Poluo called......

The ostrich is right...... When he looked back, the buffalo was only a few meters away...... Oh my God...... It was followed by a large herd of buffalo......

He shivered all night after returning to Nankaesong...... Later, he had the opportunity to see a large herd of buffalo chasing a huge male lion, and finally the male lion climbed up the tree like a big cat, clutching at the trunk...... He understood the lion's fear all too well.

Well, Director Huang Poluo is not a person who gives up easily.

It's a pity that good animal power doesn't serve us.

A herd of buffaloes can't deal with it at all, so it's okay to straggle up the stragglers.

The buffalo here are social animals, and the rainy season is their breeding season, and their food is abundant, and they usually gather into large herds of hundreds of cattle.

The core of the herd is the cow and the calf, and the bulls collectively protect the calves.

During the dry season, due to food shortages, the bulls disperse from the herd to form small herds of bachelors, or even survive alone until the next rainy season.

But Director Huang Poluo was wrong again...... A buffalo that dares to survive alone can be more ferocious than a lion and even more unreasonable!

One day, he did not ride an ostrich, and finally found a lone buffalo, then quietly turned downwind and slowly approached it...... He's still holding a rifle in his hand.

Maybe he trampled on a branch or something, and the buffalo found him at once, and then glared as if he owed it five hundred dollars...... Then he immediately concluded that he had no intention of repaying the money, and pounced on him without a sound!

This sequence of actions took place in just a few breaths...... Director Huang Poluo forgot to shoot, directly lost the gun, turned around and ran wildly, and in a few clicks he jumped up a big tree that was as thick as a man!

Before he could stabilize the branches, he heard "Tom! The trees shook...... Frightened, he also hugged the trunk of the tree and howled.

The buffalo bumped a few more times and found that it was of little use.

It snorted and walked away with a proud tail flick.

Director Huang Poluo didn't dare to come down until two scout cavalry squads went out to look for him...... He dared to go down the tree, and by this time, his wetted pants were already dry, and no one could see it.

Eventually, a squad of cavalry followed the buffalo's footprints, found it, and shot it from a distance.

The ferocious buffalo finally fell to the ground, and no amount of hard skull could withstand the power of the bullet.

Director Huang Poluo took the head of the buffalo, made a specimen of the cow's head, and hung it on the wall of his office to remind himself at all times...... After all, human power is limited, and you can't domesticate everything.

He thought about it for a long time and decided to give up for the time being the search for good labor farther north...... It's better to wait and buy those docile East Coast blacks.

The corn, cassava, sweet potatoes and potatoes grown in the Namkaicheng area are about to be harvested, all of which provide a huge source of food for captive livestock.

Director Huang Poluo looked at the cattle from Madagascar...... They're just kittens.

His lion daughter gathered at his feet all day and seemed to feel some changes in him.

He once held the lion's daughter and said, "A wild thing is a wild thing...... When you grow up, I'll let you go back to the prairie......"

Just as they were busy harvesting, haha, the second batch of support fleets came from Port Marbury, and they found it accurately!
