Chapter 0254: Death Jungle
No one was surprised by their arrival, everyone only said that they were here to strengthen patrols and prevent enemy agents from infiltrating, but they did not say that they were here to fight the opponent's trump card.
What's more, everyone on their position here doesn't know that the opponent's ace is stationed in this direction.
But the platoon commander said that on several occasions they had fought there, with casualties among each other. If the entire jungle were to be traversed, nearly 3,000 kilometers of the road would be completely exposed to the control of the enemy's direct-aim firearms. In particular, there were so many mines in it that they had planted more than 6,000.
Xiang Qian was startled when he heard this, and then said helplessly: "You are really willing! ”
The platoon commander seemed to smile apologetically and said, "If the top wants to deploy like this, we can't help it." In the past few years, the two sides have planted a total of about 100,000 mines, grenades, and the like, all of which are powerful explosives that are about to explode. According to rough estimates, there are about 60,000 pressure thunder, child and mother mines, chain mines, and jumping mines, and only more will not be less. ”
When everyone heard this introduction, they all felt bored and didn't feel relaxed at all.
The platoon commander further said: "Everyone pay attention here, these red lines here are all high-yield potato areas. These places must not be visited! In some dense places, there are about fifteen per square meter on average. ”
Zhang Xingwu frowned and said, "But the information we got is far from like this. The boss just said that he wanted us to patrol here, and gave me a map, thinking that we could come and go freely in it, and it would be nice to set up an ambush and sneak in any place, but where did you know that this was the case......"
The stationed platoon commander grinned: "Well, of course they don't know the specific situation. I think that's why they called you here. Otherwise, you can find a random place to make a nest and go in without knowing it. But once you're in, I've kept you running into walls everywhere, and it's hard to get used to. Now that I have this living map to get used to it, I should be able to reduce unnecessary casualties. ”
Everyone expressed their gratitude.
Go forward and say, "That's right! I think we're going to have to ask for special sappers from above. With professionals present, everyone's safety is guaranteed. In case the situation is exceptional, it is difficult for us to take care of it. ”
Zhang Wenwen, Ge Xiaoming, etc. all said that it made sense, and the captain Zhang Xingwu didn't squeak, it seems that he is also thinking about it.
The platoon commander continued: "That's right! I know you scouts can clear mines, but after all, you don't go in specifically to clear mines, you are on other missions, right? Then I suggest that you ask for a few sappers to be sent to strengthen your midst. ”
The captain stared at him and asked, "Is this really necessary?" ”
The platoon commander said: "Really, don't lie to you, the people who defended the troops before have passed down from generation to generation, due to the long days and the alluvial rain, there are a lot of explosives in some places, one by one, one by one, layer by layer, stacked on top of each other, just like high-yield potatoes." Aside from the occasional trip or two between enemy agents and us, no one else had set foot there. It is no exaggeration to say that this is a land of death. ”
"If you want to go deep into the jungle to patrol, you must first break down the obstacles, and you must have special personnel to break the obstacles. Do you have any here? ”
The platoon commander nodded: "Why don't I call you right away?" He asked the demining king on our side by name, and he also brought two apprentices, both of whom were very bullish. Guaranteed to help! ”
Seeing that the captain was still hesitating, he moved forward and said, "Don't be busy yet, we will think about this matter again, or let's familiarize ourselves with the terrain first." Tell us more about the inside! You just said it in detail, and we have written down all the important points. ”
"Hmmm! Some things have also been handed down by the people in front of us, and we haven't verified them in person, so I don't know. But it is better to believe that it is there than to believe that it is not. ”
"That's it!"
"The agents often take the infiltration route, you can see clearly, these are the ones, if you want to set up an ambush, as far as I know, there are some positions that can be used, condescending, the shooting range is open, and now I will point it to you. It's a pity that our deputy platoon went down the mountain, otherwise he would have given you more, he went in more and was relatively familiar with the terrain. ”
The boss promised to send an engineer team, but it couldn't come for a while, and everyone didn't want to wait any longer, and wanted to go in first.
"You guys are very belligerent, and you can't be idle for a moment, probably because of an excess of male hormones. Well, then, if you do want to go, I will send you a guide from someone who has been there, and perhaps he will be of some help. The platoon commander said, taking the map and moving forward.
"This map is also yours, but you have to keep it, maybe we will go in it in the future and use it."
"Thank you very much. Yes! Absolutely nothing damages your stuff. "I'm quite happy to move forward, hehe said.
After he took it, he handed it to Ge Xiaoming, and Ge Xiaoming handed it to the captain for collection. He went forward and touched his pocket with his hand, found a pack of cigarettes, took it out and handed it to the platoon commander.
"Thank you, you're welcome, take it!"
The platoon commander of the garrison looked at it, touched the beard on his chin, and smiled. After hesitating for a moment, I took it anyway.
The platoon commander raised his head and shouted outside the cave: "Iron head, come in and give you good things." ”
A soldier came in with a gun and asked what was the matter.
The platoon commander shook the cigarette in his hand and said, "What the scouts gave it, take it and distribute it to the brothers, one for each person, just enough." ”
"What about you? You're a bigger smoker than we are, and you've been out of cooking for days. You can start with one. "Take it and tear it up, and the iron head will take one to the platoon commander first.
"I still have it here, you can go out first." The platoon leader swallowed and waved his hand.
The soldier answered "yes" and went out happily.
"If you still have it, give him a few." Before he finished moving forward, Zhang Wenshu had already taken out the cigarette case and handed it to the platoon leader. "You take it first, I still have it here."
"You don't have to do that, treat me like a wretch. Those of us who go down the mountain will come up tomorrow, and they will bring a lot. ”
"You said it was tomorrow, but today is just a day? You take it, and if you have a surplus tomorrow, you will pay it back to me, no interest, it will be cheaper for you. ”
"Yes, yes, I'll count it for you. One, two, three...... Eighth, ninth, tenth...... XIV.XV. Clear, there are fifteen sticks in total, and I'll give you a whole pack tomorrow. ”
The platoon commander is a man who doesn't like to owe favors, and his brother settles accounts.
"So what are you doing politely, we're still taking up your territory."
"Yes, brother, settle accounts, I don't like to owe others."
"Whatever, you can do it."
The captain shouted: "Don't talk about anything else, let's talk about the current matter." Have a meeting and let's study how to do it. ”
