Chapter 61: The Furthest Road
"What are you doing in a daze, find a stone!" The old cannon shouted, still holding the saber in his hand.
"Huh? Go now! Ah Tai didn't react for a while, but quickly understood what the old cannon meant.
He hurriedly searched around, and the others followed suit, but there were stones all around, and there was no big stone to hold down the saber.
"No, what should I do?" Atay is in a hurry.
"Stupid, don't you just free up your backpack and fill it with stones!" At the critical moment, Lei Yan thought of a way.
"Yes, yes, this is a good solution!" Ah Tai quickly unloaded his backpack, poured out all the contents in one go, and then hurriedly searched for the surrounding stones to put in.
Everyone came over to help, and soon filled a backpack full of stones, Lei Yan reached out and carried it, at least forty kilograms, this weight was enough to hold down the fuse.
Fortunately, it is a loose fuse, and if it is replaced with a pressure hair, it is estimated that there are not many people left here.
This is a counter-infiltration mine used by special forces for training, and the method of manual removal is the simplest, and there is basically no such mine in actual combat, even if there is, it is a trick mine, and there will be a trigger mine below.
As long as you step on a mine on the battlefield, you will die, there is no time to platoon, and it will explode if you encounter it.
Atai pressed his backpack against the military boots, and the military boots pressed the saber tightly.
The old cannon took a breath, looked up at Atai and said, "Stay away!" ”
"No, let's die together!" Atai looked serious.
"Huh!" The old cannon was amused, ignored him, slowly let go of his hand, and then slowly stepped back, fortunately, the mine did not explode.
Outside the blast range, the old cannon sat on the ground with his butt and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with a chuckle.
Although I know that the mine is fake, but the elimination is real, I have been preparing for three years, working hard for three years, and playing with my life for three years.
After resting for a while, Chen Pai clapped his hands and said: "I'm afraid the next road will be more difficult, everyone must be careful, explore the road in front of the old artillery, there should be more than one mine here." ”
The old cannon nodded, no one here was more experienced in blasting than him.
Standing up, the old cannon continued to walk along the forest belt, but after just a few steps, he retreated.
"What's wrong?" Chen Pai asked.
"Let's take a different path, this is a minefield, there are mines everywhere, you can't get through!"
The old cannon pointed to his feet, and Chen Pai looked down to see that a very thin wire was tied to the root of the tree, about fifteen centimeters above the ground.
The filaments are like hair, if it weren't for the old gun's carefulness, they wouldn't have been able to find it at all, it was too dangerous, and being able to see this one didn't mean that they could see the second one, once the mine was detonated, everyone had to be eliminated.
Chen Pai waved his hand, and everyone retreated heartily, until they exited the forest belt, they found a flat place to sit down.
Chen Pai took the map and looked at it, this road is the closest road to the base, in order to save time, basically everyone will walk here, and others should also be near here.
"The last ten people to arrive will be eliminated, now this road can't be walked, there are mountains on both sides, everyone, what should we do?" Chen Pai wants to hear everyone's opinions.
"What else can I do, go over the mountain, it's not that I haven't turned it!" Chu Xiong said.
"If you go over the mountain, you have to walk an extra five kilometers, or even ten kilometers, which greatly extends the time to reach the base."
The people who came to participate in the selection were all elites, and Chen Pai was worried that he would fall behind the others.
"We may have been misled by this map!" Lei Yan suddenly spoke.
"What do you mean?" Chen Pai frowned.
"Didn't you notice that this map was so delicately drawn?"
Lei Yan took the map in his hand and said: "This marks the location of our getting off the bus and the location of the base so clearly, and the surrounding landforms are drawn, mountains, water, and jungles are all marked, why, are you afraid that we will get lost?" ”
Xiwa scratched her head and said: "Isn't it that you think too much, isn't it good to draw clearly, lest we take the wrong road." ”
As soon as these words came out, Chen Pai, Lao Pao and others were stunned for a moment.
Yes, the special forces would be so kind? Afraid that everyone will take the wrong path, so all the routes and terrain are drawn? The likelihood is so low that there are almost no cherry blossoms
"Why, exactly?" Chu Xiong also felt that it was not in line with the actual situation, but he couldn't figure out what was going on.
"Maybe they deliberately marked it so clearly!" Chen Pai seemed to have figured it out.
"Why?" Atai asked, his brain must not be able to figure it out.
"Maybe it's because the roads that seem short and easy to walk are dead ends." Chen Pai looked at the map in his hand and said expressionlessly.
"Like here!" Lei Yan pointed to the forest belt he had just walked through.
"Huh? So what to do? Ah Tai patted his head and was worried, the danger just now was still fresh in his memory.
"Easy!" Lei Yan stood up, patted the dust on his body and said, "Follow the edge of the map, take the farthest and most difficult road." ”
"No, that's at least eighty kilometers." Xiwa stretched out her thumb and index finger and made a figure-of-eight.
"Why, you can't walk, I can't walk on your back." Lei Yan smiled faintly.
"That's not it, I'm afraid that no one else will be faster!" Xiwa looked worried.
"I think only those who get to the base safely are qualified to stay."
Lei Yan shrugged, and continued: "This is my personal opinion, if you are willing to follow, you can go together, if you don't want to, there are roads everywhere here, you can take whichever way, you choose for yourself!" ”
Lei Yanwan carried a sniper rifle, ignored the crowd, turned around and walked towards the mountain on the left.
The old cannon was the first to follow, and Xiwa didn't pay much attention to it alone, and hurriedly followed when she saw the squad leader going.
Chen Pai looked at the others, "I can't guarantee that this path is right, so the choice is up to you." "I followed.
Chu Xiong was a little hesitant, becoming a special soldier was his biggest dream, otherwise he would not abandon his old unit and run to the reconnaissance company.
In the current situation, if Lei Yan was wrong, then they would definitely be the last batch of students to arrive at the base, because they had chosen the farthest route.
Just when Chu Xiong was hesitating, there were already two soldiers next to him who left according to their own ideas, and the other few people thought for a little and decided to follow the large army and chase after Lei Yan and them.
Only Atai and Chuxiong were left in the same place.
"Hey, what do you mean?" Atai asked, tilting his head.
Chu Xiong didn't speak, his face was wrinkled, and his mind kept struggling.
I have to admit that Lei Yan's consciousness is indeed a little higher, but this path is too unreliable, if it is wrong, this year's special forces selection will be over, he really doesn't want to take risks.
But if you go by yourself, you are not sure, you really have no bottom in your heart, the minefield just now is vivid, if you run into it halfway, no one will clear the mine for yourself.
"Why don't we form a team?" Atai bumped Chu Xiong's shoulder.
Chu Xiong turned his head to look at him, couldn't help but shudder, rolled his eyes and said, "You better go by yourself!" ”
After hurrying towards Lei Yan and the others, just kidding, he was not sure, and with such a simple-minded and well-developed guy, can he still be good?
"Forget it, Leizi, I'll trust you again!" Chu Xiong said secretly while chasing.
