The spring of 1911 was a huge change for the people of Fujian. In terms of farming alone, the Autonomous Parliament sent tractors for transportation, and at the same time used tractors to plow the land (the type of plowing land). In some areas with relatively flat terrain, those cattle farmers replaced tractors to plow the land, while those whose terrain was not suitable for tractors to drive into the ground continued to use buffaloes.

The tractor fleet of the Autonomous Parliament greatly reduced the labor intensity for farmers in various townships. At the same time, paper mills needed a large amount of paper materials, which also increased income for rural residents in various places.

They can harvest reeds and weeds during the slack farming time, and then transport them to the paper mill by tractor. Although the purchase price is very low, this income is also money for the slack farming time.

Not only did the government lose taxes, but every household also raised chickens issued by security teams. These chickens grew very fast and basically did not get sick. Sometimes when chicken plague comes, other chickens died, but the chickens sent by security teams were fine.

Moreover, these chickens can lay eggs quickly when they grow up, and there are more eggs than ordinary hens. What's more amazing is that this chicken tastes very good and it nourishes the body after eating it.

The only disadvantage is that the feed is eaten more than ordinary chickens, but the feeding ability is strong in the wild. If you release it, the feed can save nearly one-third. Not only do you eat insects, but also some tender grass. Sometimes more insects can save more than half, and you don’t even need to feed them.

Recently, some piglets were issued, but the number was not large, and there were only one family, and some towns had not yet issued it.

Last winter, the security regiment fired guns, and the autonomous council also drew militias from each village to organize training. At first, there were not many bullets in a few months, but after the end of the year, there were more bullets for training. The instructor even told them - bullets can be fired at will, and there will be one next month.

Yang Xueming is only fifteen years old this year. Because he is less than age, he cannot join the army, so he participated in militia training and planned to join the army after two years of training.

There are two soldiers in the village who come back. Every time they come back, they will bring some delicious food, such as canned food, chocolate, and candy. They said that the food in the army is very good, but the training is harder, and they will also receive military pay in the future. There are many guns in the army, which is better than the Mauser rifle used by militias, which makes Yang Xueming very yearn for.

During the training, Yang Xueming showed a strong talent and was the first in the village to shoot. For this reason, he was hired by the village as a forest farm nurse and sent him a Mauser rifle, becoming one of the few people who could bring the gun home. Others had to return the gun after training.

On New Year's Eve, Yang Xueming took his native dog Xiaohua to inspect the forest farm and found a group of wild boars, so he climbed onto the trees and killed two of them, making him famous overnight in the village.

More than ten days have passed since spring sowing, and the seedlings have grown. On that day, Yang Xueming was planting rice with his father. A tractor carrying the seedlings drove to Yang Xueming's field and shouted to him: "Xueming, the Speaker asked you to lie in the village."

"What's the matter?" Yang Xueming asked in confusion.

"I asked you to fight wild boars. The seedlings in the village were arched by wild boars, and the speaker's nose was crooked." The tractor driver smiled.

"The Speaker called my child to the farm work, who will do this!" Yang Xueming's father was unhappy. It was such a dangerous thing to beat wild boars. His son was only sixteen years old. If he hadn't been lucky last time, he would have died.

"The Speaker said, I'll do it for you later. I'll beat the wild boar and have a bounty collar!" said the tractor driver.

"Okay, I'll go." Yang Xueming pulled up his trousers and jumped up from the field. Regardless of his father's shouting from behind, he hurried home. He took his beloved steel gun and hurriedly ran over with Xiaohua, hurriedly onto the tractor with Xiaohua in his arms.

Yang Xueming came to the council building in the village and saw several militiamen who were also invited by the Speaker to fight wild boars, with a total of five people.

When they arrived at the scene, they found that some of the ridges of dozens of acres of rice fields used for breeding in the village were arched in a mess by wild boars.

Yang Xueming went up the mountain with four other people that day to search for traces of wild boars, but they were not found during the day. It was almost dark, so the other four decided to go home, but Yang Xueming decided to spend the night on the mountain. Most of the wild boars came out to play at night.

As night gradually fell, Yang Xueming and his native dog Xiaohua lay quietly in the grass. Under the faint moonlight, the wild boar indeed appeared.

A group of wild boars were more than a dozen, which made Yang Xueming very nervous.

He has seen the madness of wild boars. If he hadn't been hiding in a tree last time, he would probably have been hunched to death. He must be beaten to the right. If he didn't hit the right one, he would rush over to the right one. This is an extremely revengeful animal.

Not every time there are trees that can climb up, and some trees cannot climb up at all.

With a slight concentration, Yang Xueming pointed his muzzle at the largest wild boar. He aimed several times, but he felt that he was not sure and he was afraid to take action.

Finally, after aiming for more than ten minutes, Yang Xueming saw the wild boar pointing his head in the direction he was. Out of intuition, Yang Xueming pulled the trigger in an instant.

Bang!

A gunshot cut through the night sky.

When the wild boars heard the gunshots, they immediately ran away with a rumble. The bullet hit the largest wild boar. The wild boar suddenly screamed, and his blood surged, his whole body turned red, and he ran towards the direction where the gunshots came.

Yang Xueming suddenly felt a thump in his heart, and he secretly called out that he was not beaten to death.

At this critical moment, the little flower beside him suddenly rushed out bravely and fought fiercely with the rushing wild boar.

After such screams and wild boar howls, the wild boar suddenly fell to the ground.

The wild boar that rushed over was at the end of his strength. After fighting with Xiaohua for a while, he fell down due to excessive blood loss. Yang Xueming hurriedly ran over, and Xiaohua limped to him, sticking out his tongue excitedly, hahaha and gasping.

Under the moonlight, Yang Xueming found that Xiaohua's leg was injured and a deep wound was cut on her back. Yang Xueming burst into tears on the spot and hurriedly picked Xiaohua up and ran down the mountain.

When he ran to the village, Yang Xueming knocked on the gate of the health station overnight. The health station was built a month ago and there were only two doctors. These two doctors were responsible for the medical work of the entire town. Usually they did not charge a penny for treatment. At the same time, they also gave smallpox vaccines to the villagers and gave sweet pills to adults and children. The original barefoot doctors in the village had no business. I heard that they went to Jian'an to take the medical license.

After knocking on the door a few times, a doctor hurriedly ran to open the door.

The doctor was very young. He heard that he was a student from Jiangsu and was still studying medicine with the doctor at the health station. The doctor seemed very angry when he heard that Yang Xueming was here to treat dogs. He didn't let him sleep in the middle of the night and ran to treat dogs. However, the doctor obviously did not dare to have an attack for some reason. He felt a sense of depression and depression on his face. He welcomed Yang Xueming into the health station.

Xiaohua's injury was relatively stable. Although a wound was cut on her back, the magical thing was that the wound had stopped bleeding. The doctor heard that Xiaohua was injured like this when she fought with a wild boar. He couldn't help but treat it very seriously and disinfected the dog's wound. However, he was almost bitten by Xiaohua, who was struggling, and then showed Xiaohua's leg injury, but it was just a sprain and just put some sprains.

The Speaker heard that Yang Xueming had beaten a wild boar and rushed to visit the situation overnight. He organized people to go up the mountain to carry wild boars. More than a dozen people went up the mountain with torches. Sure enough, a huge wild boar was found on the mountain.

Everyone was amazed. The wild boar was at least eight or nine hundred kilograms, and its fangs were two inches long.

Yang Xueming was soon commended by the Autonomous Parliament. Not only did the wild boar he beat belong to, but he also rewarded him with a silver dollar and a big rooster, which was to commend Yang Xueming for his bravery.

A few days later, a new temporary instructor came to the armed forces department of the village. The instructor summoned five militiamen in the village with guns, and these five were the best shooting skills in the township.

Then the instructor conducted disguise training on the five of them, which was a skill that a sniper must possess. These five militiamen who were fired were specially used to train them to become snipers. Yang Xueming was one of them. Because he was the youngest and had good shooting skills, he was highly valued by this temporary instructor. He specially taught him his sniping skills for two days alone and left a letter of recommendation, allowing him to report to the military camp a year later.

Yang Xueming was so excited when he got the letter of recommendation and devoted himself to the practice of sniper skills with enthusiasm. He must hunt on the mountain every day. The more he practiced his marksmanship, the better he got, and more and more wild boars he got. He basically killed his wild boars every time when he shot them. This made his fame become bigger and bigger in the village. Even the autonomous councils of surrounding towns came to invite him to go and kill wild boars.
