In order to avoid the sneak attack and assassination of the Eighth Route Army, although it was uncomfortable to march in an armored car, Watanabe still sat in the carriage.

He also heard the sudden explosion of the forward troops, and his face sank instantly, and he was in a very bad mood.

"Report to the chief, the Eighth Route Army laid mines on the road, and also dug up the road, and an armored vehicle at the front was destroyed, and the Imperial Army and the Imperial Allied Army that built the road also lost 13 people!"

After listening to the report, Watanabe was stunned.

In this sweep, the armored car was a great reliance on himself to defeat the independent battalion, and it also gave him more confidence.

But the perfect facts actually tell me that armored vehicles are not as invincible and indestructible as everyone imagined.

Even the loss of an armored vehicle before the independent battalion base area has arrived can definitely be called a disadvantage for the division.

Watanabe was not superstitious, but the casualties and losses in front of him still cast a shadow on him, and he couldn't help but start worrying about the next attack.

Seeing Watanabe's calm face, his face was cloudy, and he frowned and didn't speak.

The adjutant couldn't help but ask, "Sir, what should we do next?" ”

"Keep going!" Watanabe Shaosa shook his head and didn't think about the worries and worries in his head, and made a decisive decision!

"But armored vehicles can't go any further! I am sure that the Eighth Route Army also laid a large number of mines on the road ahead: the engineer squad immediately reinforced the forward troops, and cleared the mines under the cover of the forward troops to ensure that the road was no longer in danger! ”

"Hey!" The vice-captain replied immediately.

More than 30 devils rushed to the front with metal detectors, and under the protection of more than 100 Japanese puppet troops, they crossed the armored vehicle and began to detect mines.

Soon, another mine was found a hundred meters ahead, along with three mortar shells.

In the woods on both sides of the highway, Xiao Yuan and Chen Wei saw every move of the Japanese puppet army clearly.

Xiao Yuan was the first to react: "What the little devil is holding in his hand must be a mine detector, which can detect metal mines buried in the ground!" ”

Chen Wei's face was not good-looking at that time: "Then the method of continuing to bury shells and blow up devil armored vehicles will not work!" ”

Xiao Yuan shook his head and replied: "No, we can still continue to use mines, this time we won't blow up armored vehicles!" ”

"The battalion commander said that this kind of detector can only find mines with metal shells, not stone mines and ceramic mines made by ourselves!"

"Although their power is not great, it is still no problem to blow up the little devil infantry and sappers after refueling!"

"Plus, we can have snipers work with mines!"

"Mines are planted on the roads to blow up the forward troops and sappers."

"Snipers are lying in ambush in the woods, and under the cover of mine explosions, shoot devils, machine gunners, gunners, and officers!"

"With the cover of explosions, the armored vehicles scattered in the middle of the team by the devils will not be able to find the sniper position, and there will be no way to fight back!"

"Fireman, assaulter takes cover!"

"Once the devils send troops to counterattack, while covering the sniper's retreat, find a way to bring the Japanese puppet army counterattack troops into the forest and kill them!"

The forward troops of the Japanese puppet army, more than 100 Japanese puppet troops held rifles in their hands, machine guns were mounted on the ground, and scattered on both sides of the road in battle formation, staring at the surroundings with a vigilant face.

More than a dozen sappers armed with metal detectors lined up in a row, carefully inspecting every corner of the road.

Soon they were approaching fifty meters forward.

"Report to the chief, the road fifty meters ahead has been checked, there are no mines, and it is passable!" An engineer soldier Cao rushed over and reported.

"Forward!" The Japanese lieutenant, who commanded the forward troops, decisively ordered.

"Boom ......"

More than 200 Japanese puppet troops escorted around the two wheeled armored vehicles and slowly advanced forward.

"Boom ......"

"Baga, I'm injured, Medic ......"

The explosion sounded again to everyone's surprise, and there were several screams together, including devils and puppet soldiers.

Looking at the wounded and corpses of several Japanese puppet soldiers who fell in front of the armored car, the lieutenant who commanded the forward troops directly scolded: "What are the sappers for!" Doesn't it mean that there are no mines on the roads anymore? So what happened to the explosion just now, they are responsible for these casualties! ”

"Boom ......"

Just as he was about to curse, the explosion rang out again.

"It's the sappers, and the sappers themselves were blown up by mines!" The second lieutenant, who was standing beside the lieutenant, was stunned and exclaimed with an incredulous expression.

"What's going on, are they pigs?" The anger on the lieutenant's face was even stronger!

"The captain asked them to come over and clear the mines, but now the mines have not been found, and they have been blown up, what kind of bullshit sappers are they!"

The engineer ensign, who hurried over, did not dare to argue, so he could only keep his head down.

After a long time, he replied: "Sir, the explosion just now must have been an accident, and I promise that we will carefully inspect every inch of land on the highway in the future, and not miss a single mine!" ”

"Hurry up, we're marching too slowly!" The lieutenant replied helplessly.

No matter how unbearable the sappers are, they are the best force to solve the threat of mines, and the lieutenant can only pin his hopes on the sappers until there is no other way.

"Boom...... Boom ......"

The forward protection engineer squad went less than fifty meters and stepped on three mines, including a chain mine.

The sappers plus the Imperial Army and the Imperial Allied Army suffered more than 20 casualties.

The lieutenant finally couldn't help but burst out: "Stop, the troops will stop immediately!" ”

"The sappers immediately found out why you confirmed that there were mines on the safe roads, and even you yourself stepped on the mines one after another!"

"The captain sent you here to find mines and reduce the casualties of the forward troops, not to hang out!"

"The casualties of the forward troops have exceeded thirty, if you can't give me a reasonable explanation, I will definitely sue you to the captain, and ask the captain to give an explanation to the forward troops!"

"Hey!"

The leader of the engineer squad replied with his head down, he also held back his anger, but in front of the commander, he could only endure it and swallow it in his stomach.

Not long after, the leader of the engineer squad returned, and his subordinates carried two seriously wounded men behind him, with an angry face.

"Sir, I've found out why!"

"It's not that our sappers didn't do their duty, it's that the Eighth Route Army is too cunning, and the problem is the mines!"

"In our perception, mines are made of iron. But the mines that exploded just now are all ceramic and stone shells, and there is no iron, and our mine detectors will not react even if they touch it! ”

"If you don't believe it, you can examine their wounds yourself!"

The lieutenant's face became more and more solemn, and after pinching the two pieces of ceramic fragments that had been bombarded with blood in his hands, he stared at the engineer squad leader and asked rhetorically.

"Do you have a way to crack it?"

The leader of the engineer squad raised his head again: "Give up the mine detector and use the mine detector rod for manual demining!" ”

"It's just that this demining speed is too slow, and our marching speed will be reduced!"

"However, if the commander can send troops to protect the sappers around the minefield, and divide the sapper squad into two groups, separated by a hundred meters from each other, and carry out demining at the same time, the speed should be able to catch up with the mine detector to clear the mine!"

The lieutenant raised his eyebrows and retorted: "Divide the troops? ”

"Yes, this is the only way we can speed up manual demining, please consider it, sir!" The engineer squad leader replied stubbornly.
