With so many desert antelopes, it would be a pity not to keep a few for fresh meat.
Coincidentally, Kant has the Ravenston Ranger with superb archery skills. After all, he is a level 5 soldier. If he wants to hunt these cuties, it is simply easy to catch.
"this is very simple."
The 20 Ravenston rangers nodded, their expressions unchanged.
A small lake with a width of no more than 30 meters should be called a pond to be more accurate. It can't hinder the heavy bows in their hands at all, not to mention the dense herds of antelopes gathered together, and they don't need to aim carefully like jungle hunting Then shoot the arrow.
Pulling up the heavy bow one by one, the bow string and bow arm stretch like a beautiful arc.
The special high-grade cone-headed arrow rests on the bowstring.
Aim calmly.
Arrow points to the location of the target.
The Ravenston rangers opened their fingers lightly, and the power accumulated in the bow arm was instantly transformed into the kinetic energy of the arrow shaft. The vibrating sound of the bowstring continued, and the cone-headed arrows were shot out.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
The cone-headed arrow streaked across the air, shuttling through the space like a flash of lightning.
By the pond not far away, there were blood splashes.
The 20 desert antelopes that were still drinking water by the lake collapsed in an instant, and their original black pearl-like eyes completely lost their spirit.
Because the cone-headed arrows shot have pierced their eyes.
Brutally destroying their eyes, the hard arrow pierced deeply into the skull, shattering the inner brain, and pierced out of the oblique skull, with white brains and bright red blood.
These desert antelopes fell, and immediately dyed a piece of lake on the shore red.
All this happens in just a moment.
The other desert antelopes didn't even realize what happened.
"Meaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah..."
Only a few antelopes around got out of the way, and after watching those antelope companions fell on the ground by the lake in doubt, they realized the bloody smell, tearing their throats, jumping and running, and all rushed towards the depths of the desert. And scattered.
These little guys are extremely vigilant creatures, fleeing is their instinct.
"My lord, it's settled."
The Ravenston ranger put away his heavy bow, with a normal expression.
For them, this is indeed an ordinary thing, just hunting, nothing to be proud of.
But Kant nodded with a smile: "Thank you."
At the same time, he turned his head and told the other soldiers behind him: "Go and put away those desert antelopes, I think we can taste the roast sheep at noon!"
"Understood, my lord!" A dozen Swadian light infantry immediately ran towards the opposite side of the lake.
There's nothing BBQ can't fix.
If you have it, add more spice, if you don't have it, add some salt.
This is a delicious delicacy in the non-modern civilization period. The roast lamb, which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, can be used as the main course of a state-level banquet. As long as it is dipped in white salt, even without spices, it can whet the appetite.
Kant, who had eaten enough air-dried meat, could not resist fresh red meat.
These soldiers also had joyful expressions on their faces.
The idea is the same as that of Kant, even if there is no roast lamb, the taste of simple stewed lamb is very wonderful.
Especially the fresh broth, add chopped cabbage and dates, boil for a period of time, add flour to form a thick soup, and eat it with bread, the taste is much better than the thick soup made of air-dried meat.
On Retina, the dialog reappears.
[Ding...Temporary task release]
[Temporary task: hunting desert antelope × 50]
[Task reward: Achnatherum splendens beach × 5 acres]
[Introduction: How can you refuse such delicious food if you lack red meat? This is a great time to hunt, and if you can get 50 Desert Antelope, there are great rewards waiting for you.]
Looking at the temporary tasks on the retina, Kant was stunned.
"Hunting 50 desert antelopes..."
He repeated the tasks and rewards: "5 acres of Achnatherum splendens beach?"
His stunned eyes subconsciously looked at the desert antelopes that were running away in the distance. Only then did Kant realize that those little guys had already drank enough water and continued to migrate towards the depths of the desert.
In less than a moment, the herd of thousands of desert antelopes disappeared among the sand dunes in the vast sand sea.
"This..." Kant felt helpless.
But before he could say anything, the Swadian light infantry on the watchtower behind him waved his hand and shouted loudly, "Attention, there is another batch of those desert antelopes coming!"
Kant frowned slightly, but without hesitation, he waved his hand and said, "I need 50 antelopes to stay!"
"Understood, my lord."
The 20 Ravenston Rangers behind them still looked calm.
From the quiver at his waist, he took out a cone-headed arrow and placed it lightly on the side of the bow. He turned his head and looked at the large desert antelope that appeared in the southern sand dunes again, without the slightest pity in his eyes.
They are hunters from Ravenston Kingdom, they are the best hunters.
"Baa baa baa baa..."
The desert antelopes trekking in the Sanwaya Mountains are quite tired.
They yelled softly at each other, and they all came to the lake to drink water. Obviously, they couldn't understand why the once small oasis spring had become so big.
But they don't care either.
When these desert antelopes came here in the past, the jackals would also hunt them.
Weak and sickly, old and weak desert antelopes will die during the migration at the end of each month.
But for the Sanwaya Mountains, which stretches for thousands of miles and can even be blocked by the Nalun Desert, the number of desert antelopes living in it is extremely large, and the loss of thousands of antelopes per month is completely acceptable.
In other words, this is also some kind of regular natural elimination.
Desert antelope need to eat salt.
Once a month, the desert antelope herd in the Sanwaya Mountains come to the sentry oasis in batches to go to the natural salt mine.
In fact, these desert antelopes don't come every month.
Instead, different communities in different mountainous areas are divided into 12 months. Every month, desert antelopes in a mountainous area start migrating. Just as agreed, this dangerous but necessary salt migration is carried out.
Kant naturally did not know.
As 20 Ravenston rangers drew arrows and shot arrows, 50 desert antelopes fell to the ground immediately.
All of them were arrows in the eyes, and the fur of the whole body was not damaged.
If possible, the skins of these desert antelopes can be processed to make leather products. Even skilled craftsmen can use these soft antelope skins to make warm and waterproof fur clothes, which are also sought after by nobles.
[Ding... After your disdainful efforts, the number of hunts has been completed.]
[Temporary task: "Hunting Desert Antelope" completed.]
[Reward: Achnatherum splendens beach × 5 acres]
[Introduction: Fresh red meat is the best choice to reward soldiers, and when you get these grasslands, you should know that it is also the best green fodder for livestock. Remember to give your war horses some rewards, maybe you can breed them in captivity some other livestock.]
System dialog boxes also give hints.
In Kant's mind, the 5 mu of land that symbolized the "Achnatherum splendens beach" also appeared there in the form of a card.
Lush vegetation grows luxuriantly on the sandy soil.
This kind of Achnatherum splendens is the easiest herbaceous plant to survive on the sandy soil. It is a medium-quality forage grass. As long as there is water, it can quickly take root and germinate. It can be used as green fodder to feed livestock all year round.
[Ding... system prompt]
[Achnatherum splendens: This plant is a good fodder for livestock when it is young in early spring; its stalks and leaves are tough, long and smooth, and are very useful fiber plants for papermaking and rayon, and can also be used for weaving baskets, straw curtains, brooms, etc. ; After soaking in water, the leaves have great toughness and can be used as straw ropes; they can also improve alkaline land, protect channels and maintain water and soil.]
The function of this herb is explained systematically.
But the most important thing is to solve a big problem that Kant is currently facing.
Horse feed problem!
"War horses can eat this kind of thing, and they can make the best use of it."
Kant smiled at the corner of his mouth, and the problem that was still in his heart was now solved.
Although the nutritional value of this kind of green feed is not very high, with a small amount of bread crumbs, dates, and the minced meat of desert antelope, these tall Swadian military horses can obtain high nutrition, high calories, and plenty of energy. physical strength.
If you add nutrient-rich alfalfa grass, the effect is estimated to be even better!
"It's pretty good now."
Kant was satisfied in his heart, and his eyes looked at the lake.
With a slight movement in his mind, he was thinking, especially the vast flat sandy land on the west side of the lake, and he also had some plans for how to arrange the Achnatherum splendens beach on the 5 acres of land.
"use."
The mind connected to the system, and the card in Kant's mind instantly dissipated.
Data flow sprawl.
From south to north, on the west side of the 80-meter-long and 30-meter-wide lake, large tracts of vegetation began to appear.
The sand layer has been turned into sandy land.
Although it is still barren, at least there is soil to allow vegetation to grow.
The luxuriant Achnatherum splendens began to appear, germinated, and appeared by the lake in a very short period of time. The scale of the 5 mu of land was even larger. From south to north, it was green everywhere, and there were slightly bright stamens everywhere. .
These are ready-made meadows that can be directly harvested or pastured.
Even when the Achnatherum splendens beach appeared, a few small birds that originally existed in the sentry oasis flapped their wings and flew over the date palm forest, staring curiously at these dense grass beaches.
