My Military Career in a Parallel World

Landmines are known as infantry killers, and there are a large number of landmines along the more than 1,400-meter-long border between Rabbit and Monkey.

It is estimated that the total number of these mines exceeds two million, distributed along the border, and the total area of ​​the minefield exceeds 400 square kilometers.

For example, in the very famous "Landmine Village", there are an average of four mines per square meter.

Moreover, unlike ordinary mines, these mines are extremely difficult to clear. Some mines have been buried for more than ten years, and the remaining traces have long been covered up over time, making it almost impossible to distinguish them with the naked eye.

Therefore, for the 228th Regiment stationed on the border for a long time, mastering mine clearance skills is a very necessary thing.

Landmines can be roughly divided into three categories: pressure-activated mines, trip-activated mines, and loose-activated mines.

The first thing Jiang Chen and his friends learned was the relatively simple trip-triggered mine.

As the name suggests, a trip-triggered mine has a tripwire as its detonation point. As long as you find the correct position of the tripwire, the rest of the work will be much easier.

By observing the direction of the tripwire, find the exact location of the mine, carefully cut the tripwire, and then remove the mine body.

Of course, it is definitely not that simple in reality. After cutting the tripwire, you still have to be careful of the mine itself to prevent other hidden trigger devices.

Afterwards, Jiang Chen followed Li Gang to learn how to deal with pressure-type and loose-type mines.

……

"It's just talk! You've learned enough. Now I'll show you something fun!"

As he spoke, Ge Hongtao led them to a forest on the edge of the camp, pointed to a large forest surrounded by cordon tape and continued, "There are three areas here in total. What you need to do is to pass through them without causing any casualties.

For the classes that did not complete the training, they will have to run an armed cross-country race for five kilometers after the training. For each additional member lost, an additional kilometer will be penalized!"

"Do you understand everything?!"

"I understand!"

……

After the three platoon leaders selected an area on behalf of their respective teams, the training officially began.

The three classes need to start from different locations and cross the minefield to reach the finish line.

Li Gang quickly chose the departure location.

The third squad arrived at the edge of the cordon. Han Li, as the demolition expert in the team, naturally stood at the front position.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the situation in the forest, then said with a somewhat unpleasant expression: "Squad leader, this is a bit difficult!

The beasts in the first and second companies were so exhausted that many traces of buried mines could not be seen clearly. It would be difficult to find the location of the mines!"

Li Gang nodded solemnly, and the other veterans in the class also looked a little unhappy when they heard that.

That’s right, the forest in front of them is not just a training ground for their company.

Before this, soldiers from the first and second companies also came for mine clearance training.

The key is that this group of guys knew they were coming, so they deliberately made trouble to destroy the traces of mines and also did a lot of tricks to confuse the vision.

Not only that, they later added fuel to the fire by planting many more mines in the forest under the pretext of restoring the training ground, increasing the quantity without increasing the price...

Even if everyone died, the penalty would only be fifteen kilometers at most, which is not too unbearable, but we are not masochists, so it is better to avoid it if possible.

But now, after the two companies had such a commotion, the difficulty of training had more than doubled!

Not only the first row, but the other two rows also encountered similar situations.

Everyone gnashed their teeth, but there was nothing they could do.

This is how the three companies of the reconnaissance battalion get along with each other. As long as there is a chance, they will not mind "deceiving" each other.

Without thinking, I know that the guys in the second company must have been cheated by the people in the first company, and then turned around and cheated them.

But what else could they do? They had to grit their teeth and accept it, waiting for a chance to get back at it in the future.

……

After observing from the outside for a while, the company commander began to urge them. As they didn't want to delay any longer, they made preparations and walked carefully into the woods.

As an assaulter, Tang Junjie walked at the front of the team and was responsible for clearing the way, while Han Li was there to assist and fill in the gaps.

Li Gang and Wang Jie, one was in command in the middle and the other was responsible for covering the rear.

Once a problem is discovered, we can respond immediately.

However, they still underestimated the shamelessness of the guys in the first and second companies.

After just two steps, the team was forced to stop.

"Don't move! I think I stepped on a landmine!" Tang Junjie said with a somewhat grim expression.

As an attacker, Tang Junjie's observation ability is beyond words, and Han Li, a blaster, is beside him to check for any gaps and fill them up.

But even so, neither of them noticed the landmine under their feet.

This shows how immoral those guys in the first and second companies are.

"Don't move, I'll handle it!" Han Li immediately stopped everyone else and carefully observed the situation around Tang Junjie. After making sure there was no problem, he approached carefully.

About two or three minutes later, Han Li, who had investigated the situation clearly, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "We are lucky. Old Tang found it in time, so it is not too difficult to dismantle it."

The others felt relieved upon hearing this and stopped where they were, waiting for Han Li to be out of danger.

If it is stepped on but not triggered immediately, it must be a loose-action mine.

But don't think that encountering a loose-type mine is a good thing.

In fact, in terms of the difficulty of mine clearance alone, the handling of loose-action mines is the most complicated and dangerous of the three types of mines. On the contrary, pressure-action mines that are triggered immediately when stepped on are the easiest to clear.

A loose-action mine is actually a very insidious mine. Its main target is not the person who steps on the mine, but the teammates following behind are in greater danger.

This is also the reason why Jiang Chen and his team are so scattered, because they are afraid of the current situation.

If Tang Junjie hadn't noticed it in time, their entire class might have been wiped out.

This is the horror of loose-action mines.

As a demolition expert, Han Li's mine-clearing skills are beyond words.

With Tang Junjie's active cooperation, the mine was defused in less than five minutes.

However, this was just the beginning. They had just escaped danger and taken only two steps when someone in the team was in trouble again.

Moreover, this time they were not given any chance to act and the mine was detonated directly.

Fortunately, the distance between the team members was relatively far, and no one else was affected.

A large puff of white smoke suddenly rose from under his feet. Su Yu was startled and subconsciously wanted to dodge.

"If you die in battle, just stand still and don't move!" Li Gang's voice sounded behind him.

"Yes!" Su Yu quickly agreed and stopped.

Not only did Class 3 suffer casualties, but the other classes were not much better off.

Even the students in Class 2, who had always performed very well and could handle any subject with ease, stumbled this time.

The deeper you go, the more often you encounter landmines.

Even Jiang Chen, a rookie, had no choice but to try to clear the mines a few times.
