Chapter 834: Prisoner of War Miners
The female soldiers clearly saw their battalion commander and the deputy division commander who suddenly arrived, one by one, immediately finished resting, and lined up neatly under the order of their squad leader. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Joshua raised her right hand: "Comrades! At ease! Back to work! ”
Yang Mingzhi didn't mean to speak, he paid more attention to this rest stop.
It is an open-top wooden house, surrounded by two wooden pavilions and several rows of benches. It's getting evening, the sun is setting and the sun is softer. Yang Mingzhi came to the largest lounge like this, sat on the bench leisurely, and stroked the still rough chair surface.
There is a large desk, and its rugged shape proves that the carpenter has simply worked on the tree. A telegraph operator was stationed here, and the telegraph was temporarily turned off. The man obviously saw the chief coming, and turned on the machine again.
Yang Mingzhi didn't pay much attention to it, just smiled at it, and looked at the water dispenser placed on the table.
It is actually a traditional Russian copper drinking vessel, with a faucet under a metal copper. The inside of it should usually be filled with red wine, but at present, there is a shortage of materials, and the inside of it is naturally filled with ordinary drinking water.
Yang Mingzhi was not thirsty, and the kettle pinned to his waist was still full.
Joshua asked the chief and his guards to sit comfortably at the rest stop for a while, while she herself went to prepare the gas mask herself, and soon the woman hurried back with several small iron buckets on her back.
She personally served an iron bucket, opened the lid quickly, and took out the contents of the contents. "Sir! You probably haven't worn this thing, so let me teach you a lesson......"
"No need!" Yang Mingzhi stood up hehehe, "Thank you for your kindness, I know the gas mask very well!" ”
Originally, this thing was a "fool type", and Hitler basically had a serious psychological shadow because he was almost blinded by chlorine gas, so the German soldiers not only had to carry this iron bucket, but the gendarmes would also look for the guy who threw the iron bucket everywhere. It is designed with one idea in mind, which is to allow soldiers to quickly learn how to use it and wear it quickly. Because, if it's really an enemy's gas bomb, the time that can make people react is only a few seconds.
And Yang Mingzhi knows this thing very well, not that he has studied it on his own, but that plane, as a former soldier, he has learned anti-chemical training. In a very short period of time, Yang Mingzhi's training results were not among the best, but they were completely up to standard.
In the astonishment of Qiao Shuya and the other women, in just five seconds, Yang Mingzhi finished putting it on, and even checked whether the filter was tightened.
In contrast, Abram and the other three have a lot of grinding. It's not that they don't know how to use it, it's because they play with this thing so often that they end up wearing it on their heads.
Joshua smiled and put on the mask.
In this way, the masks are all the same style, and they do not know each other, but they are recognized by their body shapes, the style of their military uniforms, and their medals.
"That's it! It's time to get down to the mines! Joshua, lead the way! Yang Mingzhi shook his neck again and ordered: "Abram, you know what to do!" ”
"Yes sir, we can shoot at any time! Defend your safety! ”
Abram and his two buddies unloaded the bullet strand again, checked the ammunition and installed it back with a snap, and then followed in Yang Mingzhi's footsteps.
Prisoners of war are mining, which is heavy physical labor and have to endure toxic gases, so what else is there to threaten them? It's hard for Yang Mingzhi not to despise these guys, can he not carry his rifle? But if you don't carry it, you can't do it, and your own guards have always been very responsible.
The boundary between the mine and the meadow is not very clear, and the yellow-white stones gradually replace the grass and black soil. The earth was no longer soft, and the place where the people had trampled on it creaked.
Because he was wearing a gas mask, Yang Mingzhi couldn't smell the stench anymore. It's really shocking to observe this mine from such a close distance, and the water vapor is evaporated from the ore, which is like a big steamer. Yang Mingzhi squatted down and gently stroked the earth.
"It's funny, the ground is still warm! After all, there are hot springs underground! Yang Mingzhi couldn't help but sigh
For the first time, he felt that he was standing on a rare geological hotspot in Belarus, which must remain warm all year round, and when the war is over, it is better to develop it.
Standing up, Yang Mingzhi's attention returned to the prisoners of war. It was close enough that he could see the faces of the Germans clearly.
Each of the prisoners of war was not in good spirits, and their clothes were covered with dust. These so-called dusts are ore powders, and they are corrosive!
No one worked with gloves, and this must have been an extra request from Yeregentina, in order to make the prisoners suffer! So these people's fingers must be covered with protective calluses to cope with the daily heavy work of digging and moving.
Belarus is very dimensional, with maximum temperatures in the mid-teens of April. The prisoners of war were poorly dressed, and many even chose to go shirtless. They don't feel cold, because the air in the mine is warm!
Yang Mingzhi was dressed relatively thickly, and he was wearing this mask, and a heat had spread in his body.
Investigating the current situation of prisoners of war from a distance, and writing a document when it's time is one of their many plans, even if it is getting more and more uncomfortable, you have to be patient!
Yang Mingzhi knew very well that the prisoners of war did not have much food every day. Engaging in these heavy physical labors, it is easy to consume 4,000 kcal a day, and the current prisoners of war can get so many calories every day? It's not impossible!
Therefore, the decline of the prisoners of war is also obvious, and the appearance of their swinging axes is a little distorted and weak, like chickens pecking rice. Fortunately, these sulphur mines are not granite, and it doesn't take much effort to chisel them.
Novgomel's sulphur is entirely supplied here, and the cost of making a large amount of black powder is also the rapid depletion of sulphur resources here. So, many prisoners of war worked in large pits more than a meter deep, and in order to get more ore, they had to dig underground.
Yang Mingzhi deliberately observed the demeanor of these prisoners of war, and even stood in a small pit for a while.
His gaze noticed a person, even though this guy's face was covered with dust, Yang Mingzhi still recalled that he had a bit of an intersection with this guy.
Because this person is none other than that! Yang Mingzhi clearly remembered that he personally captured him. It was just the beginning of winter last year, and this man led a group of Soviet traitors to infiltrate the heart of the Pripet swamp as a "meat detective", and their result was naturally total annihilation. Even if this man pretended to be dead, he was still pulled out by the soldiers.
It is precisely for these reasons that Yang Mingzhi is very interested. Despite his mask, he shouted in simple German: "Henschel?!" Is that you? ”
