Chapter 380 A hail of bullets rains down on the Great Bear
Seeing the hunting dogs entangle the Gobi bear, Li Ju'an felt a surge of anger that made his blood rush to his head, and his eyes turn bloodshot and burning hot.
He sat down, set up his shotgun, aimed it at the bear's head, and fired.
The night was very dark with low visibility. Two falcons cried loudly, wanting to attack their prey but lacking the strength to take off.
Li Ju'an aimed his gun at the Gobi bear's head and fired a shot.
Bang! Struck the Gobi bear's shoulder.
Old Chen was perched on a tree branch, shouting anxiously, "Watch out for the hunting dogs! Watch out for the hunting dogs!"
Li Ju'an knew perfectly well that the hunting dogs were locked in combat with the Gobi bear. With a resolute determination, Hua Er led Black Panther and White Egg to flank the Gobi bear from the side, hooking onto its arm and tearing at it relentlessly.
But the Gobi bear's strong, powerful arms and thick fur act like a tough, indestructible armor. Despite the fierce attacks from the spotted bear, the black panther, and the white bear, their sharp canine teeth only managed to damage the male bear's fur.
The Gobi bear raised its left arm, its power amplified several times by its severe injury and rage. Its large paw was about to grab the dog with the flowery ears. If the grab landed, the flowery ears' entire spine would be broken, and it would be impossible for it to survive.
Chen Xiangqian roared angrily and continued loading ammunition, feeding the foreign cannon ammunition in his hand at the Gobi bear. The ammunition was scattered; some hit the Gobi bear, causing it to howl in pain, while others landed on the back of the hunting dogs. But the hunting dogs were very tenacious, holding on tightly until their prey fell, even after being hit in the back by foreign cannon ammunition.
Li Ju'an's eyes were bloodshot and red, he was also furious, his adrenaline was soaring, the veins on his forehead were bulging, he stared wide-eyed and, in the dim moonlight, grabbed the shotgun and fired desperately at the Gobi bear's head.
The ammunition modified from the shotgun barrel is suitable for close combat. Although it is not as powerful as a medium-caliber slug, the propulsion of the bullets modified by the Lu family patriarch is comparable to that of a ground-based cannon.
His eyes gleamed, his arm muscles bulged, and he fired wildly at the Gobi bear. Bullets flew at the bear's head as if they were free.
Bang bang bang!
He didn't look at the results of the battle, nor did he break the gun handle. When the magazine was empty, he simply switched to the gun, propped up the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle on his back, and continued firing in a seated position.
Bang bang bang!
When the magazine of his Type 56 semi-automatic rifle ran out, he quickly switched to his Mosin-Nagant hunting rifle and fired wildly at the Gobi bear.
The Mosin-Nagant shotgun is suitable for medium to long range, but not for hitting the skull of a large male bear. His eyes were bloodshot, and he roared angrily, aiming at the heart and lung area and continuously sending bullets into the chest and mouth of the Gobi bear.
The dense gunfire from Songlingoutangzi was deafening.
Not only Li Ju'an and Chen Xiangqian, but also Old Chen, who was perched on a tree branch, initially thought that with two injured and one unconscious, and two Gobi bears frantically shaking the tree below, they had no hope and fired all their bullets at the bears' heads. However, the old-fashioned pump-action shotgun bullets in their hands could not penetrate the Gobi bears' skulls from above, only causing minor injuries to their shoulders and necks.
The minor injury only intensified the pain in the Gobi bear, which fueled its rage and frenzy. It shook the tree even more violently, nearly knocking the three people off the branches.
Old Chen and Old Li had emptied their magazines and cloth bags of bullets.
Old Li shouted, "Sun Weimin still has bullets!"
Listening to the rapid firing of Li Ju'an and Chen Xiangqian, the two men were so excited that their scalps tingled and their hair stood on end, all they wanted was to lend a helping hand.
Old Li climbed onto the branch where Sun Weimin was, but the branch couldn't support the weight of two people, and a small branch broke off, almost causing him to fall.
Old Li couldn't care less about that now. If he fell from that height, he would definitely break his leg. But no matter how difficult it was, he tried his best to stretch out his arms and reach for the shotgun that Sun Weimin was holding.
Li Ju'an roared angrily from below, "Damn it! That skin is really thick!"
A sliver of moonlight could have shone through, but it was almost completely obscured by dark clouds. He could only rely on the location he had just pinpointed and aim at the bear's head he had been aiming at, based on his memory.
The sounds of the hunting dogs tearing and snapping angrily grew fainter, while the howls of the Gobi bears continued unabated.
In near-total darkness, no one knew what had happened; nothing could be seen.
Old Li stretched his body out, hooking his hind legs onto a tree branch, and strained his right arm forward to reach the gun handle that Sun Weimin was gripping tightly. Even when unconscious, hunters hold onto their weapons tightly, driven by an instinctive sense of security.
Old Li finally reached the gun handle and grabbed it hard, but still couldn't pull it out. He cursed and pried Sun Weimin's fingers apart one by one with his hands before he could finally hold the gun in his hand and carefully moved it back to its original branch little by little.
He gripped the shotgun tightly, his demeanor completely different from before. He roared, grabbed the shotgun, aimed it at the dark shadow of the Gobi bear, and fired, yelling, "Eat my grandpa's bullets!"
Bang! The shotgun fired, and the Gobi bear let out a pitiful howl. He pulled the trigger to fire a second shot, only to find that he had to reload.
"Damn, there's only one bullet?"
He strained to reach for Sun Weimin's branch again, intending to search Sun Weimin and find any other bullets on him. As a result, the weight of the two men pressed down on the branch. The branch, unable to support the combined weight of the two men (over 250 pounds), snapped.
With a crack, Old Li fell heavily to the ground below, letting out a loud howl of pain.
Suddenly he opened his eyes and realized, "Hey, it doesn't hurt? What's going on?"
He looked down and saw that the unconscious Sun Weimin had been pinned to the ground by his entire body. The powerful weight actually woke Sun Weimin up.
Upon waking, Sun Weimin felt an excruciating, piercing pain in his right thigh bone. He roared in agony, large beads of cold sweat rolling down his forehead.
Old Li didn't care what he was yelling about; if he didn't kill the big male bear now...
Once the hunting dogs can no longer hold on, the male bear can pounce in a few steps without their restraint. The distance of more than fifty meters is nothing more than a few pounces. The length, explosive power, and leaping height of an adult male bear make it easy to pounce several meters without a running start, and it can reach you in just a few steps.
Li Ju'an and Chen Xiangqian's firepower is still holding off the enemy at the front.
The frenzied biting of the hounds gradually subsided, and the two men began to reload their guns. It was a crucial opening; they reloaded simultaneously, and the air fell silent, the clicking of their guns temporarily ceasing.
As soon as Sun Weimin regained consciousness, he screamed in pain and realized what had happened. He cursed, "Who the hell fired and broke the handle at the same time? Are they crazy?"
With his blood boiling, Chen Xiangqian still managed to retort, cursing, "You're like a woman if you don't fire! We'll see when to fight separately, but who's going to have time when it comes to life-threatening situations?"
Old Li finally found the shotgun ammunition. He loaded two slugs into the magazine, took a deep breath, and fired a loud shout.
"You beast, eat my bullet!"
