Chapter 355: The witty and heroic Mira
This is the case now, even though the lionesses outnumber the hyenas. But the task of the lionesses is not to compete with the hyenas, but to protect the lion cubs.
Lier may have grasped the weakness of these lionesses who only wanted to protect their cubs, so he prepared to attack these lionesses.
Mira is the leader of these female lions. This time she faced a large group of hyenas. She was not too worried at first. After all, they had more than ten female lions, which was about the same number as the hyenas.
Seeing these hyenas coming to the side of the lion group, Mira immediately asked several lionesses to surround a dozen lion cubs in the middle.
Generally speaking, when facing a strong enemy, a female lion will let her cubs hide in the bushes. But that is when there is no strong enemy coming. If you feel that an enemy is coming, you can hide the little lions first.
However, this time, Leal led the hyena army and had been lurking in the bushes nearby. When he saw Nika leading seven or eight female lions away, they suddenly burst out of the bushes.
Facing the sudden appearance of the hyena army, Mira immediately understood what they meant. Obviously, they are coming for these little lions.
So, Mira immediately asked seven or eight female lions to surround more than ten lion cubs in the middle and let them protect these little lions. The remaining seven or eight female lions began to go all out to deal with these despicable hyenas.
Although at this time, the number of female lions is nearly half less than the number of hyenas. However, once the lionesses have no worries, their combat effectiveness will be greatly improved.
Originally, a female lion could deal with three or four hyenas. Now these seven or eight female lions unite to deal with more than ten hyenas.
Mira's move was very clever. It could be said that it was completely beyond Lear's expectations. What it was thinking was that when these hyena legions suddenly appeared in front of these lionesses, they would be very panicked.
Then, those little lions will run around too. In this case, it would give the hyenas an opportunity to take advantage of it. Because when those lion cubs are running around, the lionesses will not be able to go all out to deal with these hyenas. They will definitely want to protect these lion cubs.
If this is the case, then the lioness' team will definitely be in chaos. And the hyena army must be very orderly. In this case, the winner of this battle may be the hyena army.
In fact, on the African savannah, the battle between hyenas and lions is very similar to the battle between two armies. It does not mean that a large and powerful army will definitely be able to defeat a small and weak army.
War is war, not two people fighting. War is all about strategy and tactics, as well as being able to unite as one. An army can only form a strong combat effectiveness if it is united as one. If an army is disorganized, it will be like a piece of loose sand without any combat effectiveness.
In history, there have been many wars in which the weak defeated the strong and the weak defeated the strong. Therefore, when two armies face each other, their numbers may not necessarily determine the direction of the war.
At this time, the battle between the hyena army and the lion army on the African savannah is actually like a battle between two armies.
Don't always feel that animals are stupid and ignorant, or that animals have no intelligence at all. In fact, this is entirely because humans look down on animals and always put themselves above animals. They feel that only humans have wisdom and animals cannot have any wisdom.
However, when we truly understand the lives of animals, you will know that animals are not only intelligent, but some of them may be even more intelligent than humans.
Hyenas are indeed annoying animals, but they are also extremely intelligent animals. They can survive on the African savannah for millions of years, and they must be unique in their own way.
When hyenas attack a pride of lions, they will never attack casually. They will definitely go through careful consideration and careful planning. It's just that humans can't communicate with hyenas, and we don't know what hyenas' language is, so we can't really understand hyenas.
The Lier hyena pack, the lion pack that attacked Chu Ye this time, also decided to attack after a period of observation. Moreover, Lear also chose a very good time.
However, what Genlir never expected was that Mira was a very smart lioness, and like Nika, she was the leader of the lion group. They all have extremely rich hunting experience and have experienced many battles with hyena armies.
It can be said that Mira's actions directly disrupted Lear's previous plan. Its idea of taking advantage of the situation came to naught due to Mira’s calm behavior in the face of danger.
However, Lear would not just give up. Now that he was face to face with lionesses like Mira, he had to compete no matter what.
So, Lier commanded the hyena army and began to compete with seven or eight female lions.
Although the hyena army is twice as large as the lioness army. However, when Mira's army had no worries, the combat power they unleashed was something Lir never expected.
As a lioness with rich combat experience, Mira fully demonstrated her wisdom this time.
Seven or eight lionesses went all out and quickly defeated Lier's army. There were also two hyenas, which were killed by the lionesses.
There were more than ten hyenas, two were killed and five or six were injured. Lear saw that if the battle continued, there would be more casualties. So, it had no choice but to lead the remaining defeated soldiers and flee into the bushes.
Mira saw Lier and the others running away, so she didn't chase them. After all, they know there's no point in chasing. The hyenas are relatively small and it is difficult to find them if they escape into the bushes.
This battle ended with the defeat of the hyena army. Mira led the lionesses, and after driving away the sneak attack enemies, they returned to the camp.
When the lionesses who were protecting the cubs saw the hyenas escaping, they no longer cared about the cubs. Instead, they ran up to Mila and the others and rubbed their heads against their necks. Apparently, , they use this way to congratulate Mira and them.
Mira looked at the cute little lions, all of them were unscathed, and she felt very happy. I feel like I have made a contribution to the lions this time.
Besides, Chu Ye and Maomao went to the south and north of this territory respectively to mark the new territory locations. Because the terrain of this prairie is a plain beside the river. Five kilometers east of this territory is a large mountain that runs north to south and stretches for dozens of kilometers. To the west of the territory is the Grumedi River.
The eastern and western boundaries of Chu Ye's newly built territory were naturally formed, and there was no need to define them artificially between mountains and rivers.
To the south and north of the territory is a plain that extends for dozens of kilometers. If Chu Ye wants to occupy a place, he must go to the south and north to mark his new territory.
Chu Ye originally thought that he wanted to occupy more places, so he kept walking south. But when he walked four or five kilometers, he actually saw some human buildings.
However, these buildings are just simple thatched houses, domed and round thatched houses. At first glance, this thatched house looks like a very primitive thatched house, not a tourist attraction developed by a travel company.
When Chu Ye saw these thatched houses, he felt nervous. It knew that the people living in these thatched houses were not modern people. It must be some primitive tribe in Africa.
However, Chu Ye is still far away from these thatched houses. His eyesight is very good and he can see distant objects clearly from a few hundred meters away.
Chu Ye didn't see who lived in these thatched houses, but he was certain that they were some primitive African tribes.
Since there are people living here, Chu Ye doesn't want to have any entanglements with two-legged animals. After all, he knows that compared to other animals, humans, two-legged animals, are the most terrifying.
Chu Ye did not continue walking south, but just drew his new boundary one kilometer away from these thatched houses. Although this border is only two kilometers away from their camp. However, Chu Ye felt that it would be safer this way, and not having any disputes with those two-legged humans would be the wisest choice.
Chu Ye found that he didn't see any other animals along the way. It seemed that everyone knew that some primitive African tribes lived here, and no new territories were established here.
'Forget it, it doesn't matter if the territory is smaller. The important thing is that you don't have to have any conflicts with these barbarians. '
For the sake of safety, Chu Ye first gave way to these African primitives and did not want to overlap with their territory to avoid any entanglements with them.
After Chu Ye learned about the situation in the south, he returned to the camp without making any marks here. But it was different over Maomao. There were many animals living there, and he needed to make some new marks there before he could return to the camp.
When lions mark, they usually use urine to mark them. However, because the urine will evaporate into the air, the lions have to re-mark the boundaries every two or three days. Otherwise, their territories will have no boundaries and they will not be able to warn other animals. .
When Mira was fighting the Lier hyena army just now, Chu Ye had not returned yet, and he knew nothing about what happened to the lions.
Because Mira was very clever and very brave and tenacious, she quickly defeated Leer and the group of hyenas that attacked.
So, when Chu Ye came back, Mira and the lionesses had driven away the hyenas. However, Shang Xia was not wrong for long. That's about ten minutes.
When Chu Ye came back, Mira, several lionesses, and lion cubs were eating the carcasses of the two hyenas.
In fact, lions do not like to eat the meat of carnivores, especially hyena meat. They have never liked to eat it. If there is enough food, even if the lions kill hyenas, they will not eat their meat.
However, now and then, it is the dry season and food is very scarce, so being able to eat hyena meat is not bad. Especially for Chu Ye, a huge pride of lions, they need a lot of food every day. If they can't hunt food that day, everyone will starve.
When Chu Ye saw the lionesses sharing food between the two hyenas, he knew what had just happened. After all, Chu Ye had seen such a situation not once or twice.
As soon as Mira saw Chu Ye coming back, she hurried over and rubbed her head under Chu Ye's neck. This was a way for lions to express their love and respect.
Chu Ye saw that the lionesses of the pride had hunted two hyenas, and none of the lionesses was injured. And those little lions were all intact, and he knew that all of this was due to Mira.
Although Chu Ye didn't see what happened here just now, he could smell this place just by smelling it. Many hyenas came just now.
Chu Ye knew that it was the heroic Mira who led the lionesses to defeat the hyenas and also hunted two hyenas. So, Chu Ye stuck out his tongue and nudged Mira's head twice, which was regarded as praise and reward for Mira.
Mira looked very excited, looking at Chu Ye with joy in her eyes.
At this time, Mira ran over and took some of the remaining hyena meat to Chu Ye's side, hoping that Chu Ye would taste it. Although there is not much meat left, it expresses Mira's love for Chu Ye.
Although Chu Ye was a little hungry at this time, he really didn't want to eat hyena meat. After all, he is not an ordinary male lion. If he were an ordinary male lion, he might be able to eat some hyena meat.
It's just that Chu Ye has a human soul, and he hates hyenas very much. He feels that hyenas are more dirty and dirty. Therefore, he was psychologically unable to accept eating hyena meat.
So, when Mira put the piece of hyena meat in front of Chu Ye, he picked up the piece of meat and walked to the two little lions who were playing. He wanted the two little lions to eat this piece. Hyena meat.
However, when the two little lions smelled the hyena meat, they ran away in disgust. It seems that these little lions don't like eating hyena meat. After all, hyena meat is not as delicious as gazelle and buffalo meat, and the sour smell makes these little lions feel a little nauseous.
Lion cubs have always eaten the meat of herbivores and rarely eat the meat of carnivores. Because of this, these two little lions refused to accept the favor of the lion king and refused to eat this piece of hyena meat.
'Hmph, you're such a picky eater that you won't even eat hyena meat. Although Chu Ye didn't want to eat it, he still scolded the two little lions.
