Chapter 169 Mines

The continuous explosions are still a little unbearable. Rong Soldiers can rest for a while and then explode again after a while! Thank you!

******************

After driving in the dark for about an hour, the troops changed to walking... The convoy had entered the minefield of the British and was within the range of enemy artillery fire, and it was too dangerous to ride a car.

But this does not mean that the car's mission ends here. They must disguise and wait here. Once the troops successfully break through the defense, the car quickly catches up and carries soldiers again toward Alexander.

The tanks were slowly advancing under the guidance of engineers, and sometimes they had to turn a corner on the road, because the road ahead was blocked by dense roadblocks, barbed wire and mines set up by the British.

This is a very frustrating situation, because it almost loses the advantage of maneuvering in the armored forces. They are like they are trapped in a quagmire and cannot move. These big guys, who were originally called "killing machines", can now be said to be burdens to the troops.

"This is not a good thing!" Yakopp looked at the darkness around him and said, "The British could hear the roar of tanks from afar. They could fire flares and pour bullets and shells at us, and we didn't even know where they were!"

"Do you have a better way?" Bazel rebuked when he heard Yakop's complaint: "If not, just shut your mouth!"

"Yes, sir!" Yakopp realized that he was saying the wrong thing.

As a squad leader, even if he discovers difficulties on the battlefield, he should not explain them too clearly, especially Yakepu has many new recruits.

Soon, the soldiers heard a terrifying order: "Infantry advance!"

The soldiers couldn't help but look at each other, which meant that they were going to clear mines in front of the tank.

As expected, an engineer waiting in front met Qin Chuan and others and said, "I hope you remember the mine removal subjects during training, because now is the time to use them!"

Qin Chuan's head was blank when he heard this. He didn't know how to clear mines, nor had he ever cleared mines... He wouldn't have died at the hands of mines like this!

Fortunately, Qin Chuan was arranged in the third row... The third row was almost the same as picking up some vacancy in the back, so the chance of being killed was naturally much smaller.

Later Qin Chuan learned that this was actually a kind of "special protection" by Bazer... This is not only because Qin Chuan is a sniper, but also because Qin Chuan is a talent who repeatedly made constructive suggestions for the troops.

The soldiers lay a few meters apart from each other and then pulled out the stings and advanced in the sand at a large angle. The tanks covered the soldiers with tank guns and machine guns behind them, ready to deal with enemies that would appear at any time.

Then, mines were lifted out.

What surprised Qin Chuan was that he could even touch mines in the third row... This mine made Qin Chuan a little incredible. It was like a large screw. Qin Chuan wanted to throw it away when he pulled it out, but it was stopped by Yakopu.

"Don't move, sergeant!" said Yakopp, "that's a mine!"

"Is this a landmine?" Qin Chuan looked at the little iron rod in front of him and was dazed.

"Yes!" Yakopu looked at Qin Chuan with some surprise: "Don't you know? This is a bullet mine!"

"Bullet mine?" Qin Chuan heard of it for the first time.

"Yes!" Yakopp carefully took the "screw" and explained: "Its loading is actually a bullet, and the structure is very simple. It will not explode after stepping on it, but will shoot a bullet. It will pierce your feet or car tires!"

Qin Chuan couldn't help but say "Oh" and thought to himself that this is really a wonderful and cruel world, and that any weapon can be created in order to win the war.

Just then, a "boom" sound came from the front, followed by a soldier's scream... Several soldiers rushed up and carried him down. When passing by Qin Chuan, Qin Chuan saw in the moonlight that the soldier's right hand had been blown open like a bamboo piece, his eyes were closed, and his left hand wanted to cover his eyes but did not dare to cover him. He kept shouting: "God, my eyes, I can't see anything, I can't see anything..."

After he was carried away, Kuhn said, "You must be careful, the enemy has buryed anti-mine removal!"

"These annoying guys!" Yakop muttered in a low voice.

Seeing Qin Chuan's confused look on his face, Yakopo explained: "It is very simple to set up an anti-exclusion mine layout, such as laying a chain of mines with tripwires, but it is generally not done... Because mine layout is a large area of ​​things, it needs to be safe and fast!"

Qin Chuan nodded to express his understanding that the main function of landmines is not to kill many enemies, but to block and restrain the enemy's activities, just like the trapped 21st Armored Division now.

Therefore, it requires more quantity than quality.

"The easiest anti-exclusion mine..." Yakopo explained: "It is to press a grenade next to the mine that pulls out the insurance pen. When you move the mine, it will be 'bang'..."

As he said that, Yakopu made an explosive gesture.

"You have a good understanding of landmines!" Qin Chuan praised.

Yakop leaned into Qin Chuan's ear and whispered: "I was an engineer before I became an infantryman!"

Qin Chuan couldn't help but be stunned.

"Yes!" Yakop shrugged: "I originally thought engineers would be safer than infantry, but now, I would rather be an infantryman."

Then Yakopo added: "Sergeant, don't tell others, especially those engineers!"

"Of course!" Qin Chuan replied.

There was another accident soon, and a soldier triggered a bullet thunder... The bullet thunder is difficult to detect in this dark night, even if you use a bayonet to explore the way.

The soldier thought that the road that was exploring with a bayonet in front of him was safe, so he climbed up... As a result, a "bang" sounded, and the bullet passed through his neck. The poor soldier covered his neck and breathed desperately, but blood kept pouring into his lungs. In the end, he died of blood, but was choked to death by his own blood.

"Keep going!" Bazel ordered: "It is best to slap the bayonet before you climb forward!"

Werner asked impatiently: "Captain, haven't the British found us yet?"

"Do you think they haven't found it yet?" Bazel replied: "The sound of the tank's motor has long told them where we are!"

"What are they waiting for?" Werner asked.

"They are waiting for us to go deep into the minefield!" Bazer carefully raised a mine and replied: "That way they can cause as much damage to us as possible!"
