My Military Career in a Parallel World

Inside the tent, Jiang Chen hid on the side and listened nervously to the interaction between Tang Junjie and the patrol team. His heart was pounding, fearing that the other side would rush in to arrest people in the next second.

On the other side, Li Gang and Hu Kai held on tightly to the kitchen squad leader.

Fortunately, as a fourth-term non-commissioned officer who has been in the army for more than ten years, the squad leader of the kitchen squad is not the kind of person who does not follow the rules.

Cooperate with the two of them silently and try not to make any noise.

Outside, under Tang Junjie's perfect performance, the patrol captain seemed to let down his last bit of guard.

However, he had no intention of leaving immediately.

"Captain, I'm afraid it won't be peaceful tonight. Stop working and go back to sleep. I'll bring someone to help you tomorrow."

"Haha, it's just a scout, it's no big deal. If it were a few years ago, I would have gone out with you to catch people." Tang Junjie smiled and waved his hands, looking like he had seen all kinds of situations.

Seeing his attitude, the patrol team leader not only did not think there was anything wrong, but became more convinced of Tang Junjie's identity as the squad leader of the kitchen squad.

The fourth-term non-commissioned officers have been in the army for at least fifteen years, and the Rabbit’s kitchen team is famous for its hidden talents.

Although it is not true that there are ruthless people in every company's kitchen squad, it is normal that there are masters in five out of ten kitchen squads.

This situation may not be very common in the future, but it is very common now.

This is because the war was just over not long ago, and there are a large number of elite and veteran soldiers with outstanding achievements in the army.

Moreover, most of these veterans have experienced real wars and have taken more than one life.

It is quite stressful for the local authorities to accommodate so many retired meritorious soldiers at once.

Therefore, the only way to save the country is to keep these veterans in the army temporarily.

Logistics, car team, stewardship...

The kitchen team, a relatively leisurely job that does not require much physical labor, naturally became the best place to be placed.

Once you reach this level, it is no exaggeration to say that the company commander and battalion commander have to salute and call you hello when they meet you.

It is almost impossible for ordinary soldiers to sign up for four terms unless they transfer to technical positions.

This shows the value of the fourth-term non-commissioned officer rank.

This is why the patrol captain has been so polite.

If it were anyone else, no matter what you were here for, as long as you didn't know them, even if there was only a one in ten thousand chance, you would still be questioned and searched.

Not like now...

The patrol captain chatted with Tang Junjie for a few more words and shone the flashlight into the tent from time to time, which made Jiang Chen and others more nervous. They hid in the tent and dared not breathe, for fear of revealing their flaws.

Finally, the patrol leader was ready to leave. "Okay, squad leader, you do your thing, we'll continue patrolling." After saying that, he waved his hand and left with the patrol team.

Hearing the footsteps gradually fading away outside the tent, Jiang Chen and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Damn, he's finally sent away. I was so nervous that my trouser pockets are sweating." Although Tang Junjie just acted fearless, he was actually so nervous that his back was wet. If the patrol captain stayed a little longer, he might be exposed.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense and hurry up. The patrol may be back at any time."

As he spoke, Li Gang let go of his hand and whispered to the squad leader of the kitchen squad, "Squad leader, the situation was urgent just now. I'm sorry for offending you. You..."

Before he could finish his words, the squad leader of the kitchen team, who was stripped down to shorts and short-sleeved shirts, smiled and waved his hands, saying, "The exercise is a war. You did a good job. I am old now, and I can't help but accept it. If it had been a few years ago, you would not have succeeded so easily."

Li Gang did not respond, nor did he know how to respond. He returned the clothes to the old soldier and waved his hand and ordered, "Let's go, follow the original plan!"

Tang Junjie re-applied camouflage on his face, and Hu Kai did not forget to leave some small gifts before leaving. After finishing these, the group walked out of the tent carefully and continued to move towards the center of the camp.

The fact was just as they expected. Although the camp was heavily guarded, with nearly half of the troops suddenly missing, it was inevitable that there would be loopholes in the defense.

Not to mention anything else, just adjusting the various checkpoints and patrol routes would take a lot of effort.

Although we had anticipated this and had prepared an emergency plan in advance, there still has to be a process to prepare.

Jiang Chen and his team must seize this opportunity now.

The outer defense was tight, but the interior of the camp was obviously not able to take both into account due to lack of manpower.

Under the cover of night, the group slowly advanced forward using the gaps between shadows and tents.

Suddenly, a slight sound of footsteps was heard, and several people immediately stopped their actions and hid behind a tent.

A moment later, two soldiers walked past them. Jiang Chen didn't pay much attention to it at first. They had encountered similar situations countless times along the way.

However, when the two men came closer and Jiang Chen saw their clothes clearly, his heart rose to his throat again.

People from the detective company!

Jiang Chen would not make a mistake. Judging from the way they were dressed and the armbands on their arms, they were definitely members of the Police Detective Company.

The others obviously noticed this as well, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Other aspects are fine, but when it comes to observation of the surrounding environment, the soldiers of the infantry battalion are really not on the same level as the police detective company.

This difference can be seen from the current status of several people.

Li Gang, Hu Kai, Tang Junjie, and even Jiang Chen, all tried to slow down their breathing as much as possible, for fear of revealing even the slightest clue and alerting the other side.

But even so, it still attracted the attention of the two soldiers from the police detective company.

"Wait..." As they were walking, the soldier from the police detective company in front suddenly stopped, raised the Type 81 rifle that was originally on his back, and looked around vigilantly.

Seeing this, the teammates next to him did not ask the reason, but also took alert action immediately.

Seeing the reactions of the two, the people in the third squad hiding behind the tent felt their hearts tighten in an instant. Cold sweat slowly flowed down their foreheads. Their eyes were fixed on the two soldiers of the police detective company, and their fingers involuntarily moved to the trigger.

The soldier who stopped first scanned the surroundings with his sharp eyes, which finally fell on the grass of the tent. A detail that most people would overlook unless they looked closely closely was that the weeds here showed signs of being trampled on.

Moreover, the trace was very 'fresh' and definitely not more than five minutes old.

Slowly scanning the surrounding tents and shadows, the soldier from the detective company did not easily step into this dangerous area, and did not even think of getting close.

Now in the entire camp, except for a few non-combatants, everyone else is either out in pursuit or staying in the camp on guard.

Most of the tents in front of us are empty. If an enemy sneaks in, he could hide anywhere.

First of all, they didn't know the exact number of enemies.

Secondly, even if there are really only one or two enemies, it would not be a wise move to rush in rashly when the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light.

This is their territory, there is no need to take risks, there may be better solutions.

He waved his hand gently to make a gesture of retreat, and the teammates beside him understood and slowly retreated with guns raised.

From beginning to end, he never doubted his teammates' judgment.

Can't wait any longer!

Li Gang, who witnessed the reactions of the two throughout the process, knew that their exposure was inevitable.

At the moment the two men made a move to retreat, without any hesitation, he raised his gun and pulled the trigger.

bang bang~

Two gunshots were heard, and the entire camp seemed to become quiet at that moment. Then there was a burst of shrill whistles, and then countless footsteps swarmed towards this side.

The soldier from the detective company who first discovered the whereabouts of the few people was not surprised at all. The laser beacon on his helmet was activated and a puff of white smoke rose, announcing that he had been killed.

Another soldier from the police detective company who had been on alert the whole time, rushed into the nearby tent without any hesitation the moment Li Gang opened fire.

The others didn't expect Li Gang to suddenly shoot, and they were unable to react for a moment. By the time they wanted to aim, it was too late.

At this moment, another gunshot was heard.

A wisp of white smoke rose from the muzzle of Jiang Chen's gun, and the soldier from the police detective company stopped less than one meter away from the tent.

"go!"

After killing the two men, Li Gang immediately gave orders and rushed towards the center of the camp.

Everyone followed, and Jiang Chen took out a grenade from his waist while running.

This grenade is no different from an ordinary grenade. The only difference is that the grenade pin is tied with a one-meter-long thin wire.

Tang Junjie and Hu Kai also made the same move as him.

The reason why they prepared booby traps in advance was not because they knew the current situation would occur, but just to be prepared.

Looking at Jiang Chen who also took out a booby trap, Hu Kai was slightly stunned, and then the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

The three of them quickly started to act, each looking for a suitable location to deploy the booby trap.

"Great, Old Tang. You taught me well." Even though he was in the enemy camp and was surrounded by enemies, Hu Kai showed no fear at all. He was even in the mood to joke with his teammates.

"That's right, don't you see who is leading the soldiers!" Tang Junjie shamelessly accepted the praise.

The actual situation was that the reason why Jiang Chen prepared booby traps in advance was entirely because of his "escape" experience in the past few days, as well as the psychological trauma left by the fact that he almost died when he returned previously.

It doesn't make sense that only others can cheat him, but he can't cheat others.

A booby trap is not a land mine, and it is not that complicated to set up. You can basically learn it at a glance. The really difficult part is how to make the other side step into your trap.

You can only rely on yourself for this. Others can only give a few examples and share their own experiences.

They are both booby traps, but some people’s booby traps are always effective, while others may not hit even one out of ten. That’s the difference.

The person in Class 3 who knows best how to deploy booby traps is undoubtedly Han Li.

It’s not because he is a demolition expert, but because the mines and booby traps he sets have the highest detonation rate, so he is a demolition expert.

If we really compare professional knowledge, he is at most on par with others, or even worse.

But the thing is, he has talent in this area, and you can't help but accept it.

When escaping from pursuit before, Jiang Chen also tried to set up a few booby traps.

As for the effect...

Judging from the number of pursuers behind him, it probably did not have the effect expected.

There was nothing strange about this. With the way he was setting booby traps now, in the eyes of the old foxes in the police detective company, it was not far from being full of loopholes.

When he used the dream space to look back, Jiang Chen also looked at the booby traps he had deployed.

how to say.

It felt fine at the time, but looking back...

Fortunately, as a former office worker, Jiang Chen never considered himself a genius.

If you don’t understand, ask; if you can’t do it, learn; if you are not familiar with it, practice.

The last thing he lacks is time.

If you don't have enough talent, you can make up for it with hard work. As long as you are truly without talent in this area, you will always make progress if you spend a lot of time on it.

Just like fighting.

Even though he seems to be very good at fighting, the soldiers he meets are basically no match for him.

Even Hu Kai, a professional prisoner capturer, almost fell into his hands.

But in fact, all of this is the result of Jiang Chen's countless time and sweat.

Other people’s fighting is just fighting, but his fighting is desperate.

I won’t say anything about Li Gang.

The difficulty level is hellish from the beginning. Until now, Jiang Chen has often faced Li Gang in the dream space and the outcome has been a narrow escape, with the overall winning rate not exceeding 10%.

Don't forget, this is based on the fact that Jiang Chen has already figured out Li Gang's playing style.

I was tortured to death all day long.

Although you won’t actually die in a dream, it will still hurt like hell.

If you want to hit someone, get hit first. Jiang Chen has truly put this saying into practice.

During that period, he almost suffered from psychological trauma.

If it weren't for the fact that there were a few sparring partners of equal ability, as well as some rookies who were somewhat skilled but not yet good enough to ease his mood, Jiang Chen might have really suffered psychological trauma from the beating.

For example, Zhang Pengfei who was encountered during the raid drill.

Every time Jiang Chen suffered a setback at the hands of Li Gang, he would go to him to vent his anger.

After arriving at the reconnaissance company, Jiang Chen had one more person to vent his anger on, Lu Xingwang. Only then did he completely walk out of Li Gang's shadow.

He had survived it all. It was just a booby trap. Jiang Chen didn’t believe that he couldn’t figure it out.

After trying countless times in his dreams, Jiang Chen finally got the hang of it.

Conventional booby trap deployment, such as in the enemy's must-pass route, or using narrow terrain to increase the chance of booby trap triggering, etc.

These may be useful against inexperienced recruits, but they are not so effective against veterans who have participated in several exercises.

At most, it can only delay time, and it is difficult to cause casualties.

Booby trap, booby trap, the mine is secondary, the most important thing is the 'trick'.

To achieve this, you must first prevent your opponent from discovering the booby traps you have deployed, otherwise it will be useless no matter how unexpected you are.

There are two types of camouflage: natural camouflage and artificial camouflage.

Natural camouflage is to make use of the surrounding natural environment to blend the booby trap into the surrounding environment and reduce the possibility of being discovered.

Artificial camouflage is more complex and requires taking advantage of things that the enemy may overlook.

The simplest example is to tie a booby trap to the curtain of a tent, which will explode as soon as the enemy lifts the curtain.

When leaving the temporary kitchen before, Hu Kai set up a similar trap after obtaining the consent of the fourth-term non-commissioned officer cook squad leader.

If the patrol team realizes something is wrong and wants to go back to look for people, there is a high probability that they will detonate the booby trap.

There are two advantages to doing this. The first one, needless to say, is that it can cause casualties to the opponent.

The second is that it can serve as a warning.

Once the enemy returns, they have been exposed and can make quick adjustments after hearing the sound of the grenade detonating.

Jiang Chen is currently at this stage.
