VIP Volume Chapter 1195 Minefield
When he came, Lei Storm had explained to Zhang Kun the hazards of some minefields.
What 50,000 acres of arable land are barren, 60 million kilograms of rice and grain are lost a year, and more than 5,800 people have been killed or injured by landmines in 24 years.
Lei Yu listed a lot of detailed data, but these data are difficult for Zhang Kun, who has never been exposed to these, to form an intuitive understanding.
It wasn't until later, when Lei Yu used his hometown of Sharenzhai as an example, that Zhang Kun had a somewhat real impression of the hazards of the minefield.
A small village that once had 87 people, but only 78 legs.
However, even then, it was only formed in Zhang Kun's mind that the minefield was really dangerous.
But only today, only now, only by seeing with his own eyes the habituality of people with disabilities and people in Maguan County, Zhang Kun seems to have truly experienced the impact of the minefield in Wenshan Prefecture.
It's not that the people in Maguan County are indifferent, but it's really because they've seen too much.
At that moment, Zhang Kun seemed to really feel the impact of the minefield on the people of Wenshan Prefecture, and truly understood the true meaning of the phrase "worthwhile" and the sentence "if the mine is not cleared for a day, the mine-clearing task will not stop for a day".
As long as there are landmines on the Sino-Vietnamese border, they will pose a threat to the people living on this land for one more day.
It may be just a small landmine, but it can destroy a family.
If it is a father, the father is the pillar of a family's prosperity, and if the pillar falls, the family will also collapse.
If it is a mother, the mother is the cornerstone of a family's stability, and if the cornerstone is gone, the family will naturally be gone.
If it is a child, the tragedy of the white-haired person sending the black-haired person is enough to make a family completely silent from now on.
And it is possible that all of this is caused by just a landmine, a landmine that has been buried in the ground for decades, or even nearly a hundred years.
Zhang Kun carried a travel bag on his back, rode on a second-hand motorcycle he had just bought, and followed the guidance of the thunderstorm in the sky towards the border minefield.
Zhang Kun thought a lot along the way, from the beginning, the reason why he came was just to come with respect for Chinese soldiers, and to do something for Chinese soldiers.
Until now, Zhang Kun has become a sincere desire to do something for the people living on the Sino-Vietnamese border.
He didn't know how much help he could bring, but at this moment he was spontaneously and voluntarily moving towards the minefield, no longer just because of the thunderstorm, no longer just because of the Chinese soldiers, but only for himself.
The motorcycle drove on the yellow earth, there was no road, and it drove very slowly, and it took more than an hour to walk more than 30 kilometers.
Then slowly, stone tablets began to appear on the land, and the stone tablets were painted with a large skull, and the words "minefield, no entry" were written.
This is officially a minefield.
Zhang Kun glanced up at the thunderstorm in the sky, and saw that the thunderstorm did not indicate anything, so he continued to move forward.
After driving for more than ten minutes, there were suddenly several roars in the distance, and Zhang Kun immediately braked sharply and stopped the motorcycle.
The thunderstorm in the sky fell at the right time.
"We can only drive here, and there is a minefield in front of us that is being cleared, and if we want to avoid being discovered, we have to walk the road behind. "Thunderstorm Road.
This has been said at the beginning, no matter what soul is, the premise of helping is to never expose the secrets of the soul that you can see.
This made the thunderstorm that proposed at the beginning that the best way to clear mines was Zhang Kun and the minesweepers acting together, and at the same time, I couldn't understand it, but in the end I chose to agree.
After that, Lei Yu gave several action plans according to Zhang Kun's request, but in the end Zhang Kun had no choice, he decided to go to the scene to see it with his own eyes and then make a final decision.
Zhang Kun nodded, then looked left and right for a while, found a relatively hidden small dirt slope, pushed the motorcycle over, hid behind the dirt slope, and then slowly followed behind the thunderstorm, moving forward cautiously.
When Zhang Kun was advancing, there were occasional explosions and two explosions in front of him, and then finally after more than ten minutes, a faint figure finally appeared in front of him.
Zhang Kun lay behind a small dirt slope and looked at it from afar.
It was a group of soldiers who were carrying out demining operations, and there was still a distance of about a kilometer from him, which could completely ensure that Zhang Kun would not be discovered, and at the same time, Zhang Kun could clearly see the minesweeping scene with his far beyond ordinary people's eyesight.
A small command vehicle, and a dozen remote-controlled robots of various sizes.
The minesweepers have their own division of labor, and some people hold remote controls to control those minesweepers at the forefront to carry out mechanical minesweeping.
There are huge minesweepers, shaped like a modified bulldozer, that can clear bushes and shovel trees, as well as some shallow anti-infantry mines and detonate some unexploded ordnance by means of an electric hammer blast.
And the roar of explosions that Zhang Kun hears from time to time is that these wreckers occasionally detonate some mine explosives.
In addition to the large wreckers, there are also some small minesweeper robots, which are called robots, but in fact they are remote-controlled vehicles similar to tank models, equipped with a flexible robotic arm.
To a certain extent, it can replace the minesweeper and complete some relatively simple minesweeping tasks.
After the first minesweeping front of the minesweeper robot, there is our minesweeper who carries out the second minesweeping operation.
Because, although the addition of mine-sweeping robots and other equipment to a certain extent reduces the danger of minesweepers, under the existing technical level, it is difficult to ensure that mine-sweeping robots, mechanized mine-sweeping, blasting and demining methods are 100% cleared thoroughly, and cannot solve the mines buried deep in the soil.
So after the first line of robot mine clearance, there is the second line of mine clearance of our minesweepers.
Dressed in heavy dark green protective suits and armed with minesweepers, they gently and layer by layer raked the earth in front of them to take a closer look.
Rake three times in one place, not too deep, to prevent the explosives from being triggered by too much force.
Zhang Kun carefully observed for a while, and then found a detail.
The protective clothing worn by the front-line minesweepers covers the whole body of the minesweepers as much as possible, and even on the face, there is a thick bulletproof glass, which provides the greatest protection as possible without affecting the field of vision.
However, only the hands of the minesweepers were completely bare.
Thunderstorm explained that because minesweepers need to be precise when clearing mines, any slight carelessness may detonate mines.
And if you add a protective cover to your hands, it will greatly affect the control of the minesweeper's strength, so the vast majority of the first-line minesweeper fighters are barehanded.
In this regard, Zhang Kun once again fell into silent silence.
Although bare hands will maximize the likelihood of successful demining, what if?
In the event of an operational error, an explosive mine explodes in the hands of a minesweeper with no hands at all.
Zhang Kun didn't think about it anymore.
He silently turned around, greeted the thunderstorm, and then bypassed the minesweeping team that was clearing the mine in front.
Even if that situation did happen, he wouldn't be able to help anything, and all he had to do now was do what he could.
For example, in some places where manual demining is very dangerous, the mines are marked so that the minesweepers do not accidentally touch the mines, causing additional casualties.
