Area A49.

Although all the officers and men of the engineer battalion tried their best to carve out a safe passage in this high-density minefield, the density of mines in this minefield can almost be described as terrifying.

Some mines appear to have been exposed, but in reality, there may be one, or even several, mines buried beneath the mine that is exposed beyond the surface. This is all due to the movement of the earth's crust and the erosion of rain.

This creates a degree of difficulty in demining, because before dismantling mines exposed to the surface of the soil, it is necessary to determine the underside of the exposed mines and that no mines have been buried underneath them.

If other mines are found under one mine, there are only two ways to deal with them, find another way to avoid them, or remove them.

However, if there is no way to avoid it, the only way to clear the mines is to do so, which will greatly affect the progress of the safe passage.

The progress of the safe passage had a direct impact on the speed of the reconnaissance company following the engineer battalion, and it was not until it was completely dark that the team advanced 10 kilometers, and this was the speed at which the engineer battalion was clearing mines with all its might.

"Rest in place!" Wang Liwei commanded the soldiers around him, took off the anti-riot helmet on his head, walked in front of Luo Hao, and said: "After dark, it is more difficult to clear mines, and the degree of danger is also higher. We can only camp here now, and then move forward at dawn. ”

Luo Hao glanced at the primeval jungle that was pitch black, like an endless abyss, and said to Wang Liwei: "Advance five kilometers further!" ”

"What are you kidding!?"

Hearing Luo Hao's words, Wang Liwei's face suddenly changed, and he said: "In the current situation, not to mention advancing five kilometers, it is extremely difficult to advance one kilometer!" I know that among those two kidnapped men is your wife, but even then, I can't risk the lives of so many of my brothers! The density of mines in this minefield has exceeded my previous expectations, as long as one mine is accidentally detonated, it may cause a chain explosion, and at that time, we will really have no way to enter the sky, and absolutely all of them will be blown up to the sky. ”

Wang Liwei glanced at Luo Hao, who was silent, sighed and said: "You yourself are also leading the troops, and those brothers under your command are also raised by their parents, none of them jumped out of the cracks in the stones, their parents sent them to the army, and I will be responsible for them." It is the duty of a soldier to obey orders, but that doesn't mean that I will send them to their deaths. ”

"I don't have the authority to order you, let your troops do exactly what I order." Luo Hao said slowly: "So I retract what I just said, I am now borrowing a lightning rod as a person, and I will go in alone." Of course, you can also choose to refuse, I can use a saber instead, but I use a saber to clear mines, not as dexterous as a mine detector. ”

"Are you crazy?" Wang Liwei looked at Luo Hao with a shocked face and asked, "Do you want to rely on a lightning rod to pass through this high-density minefield in the dark!?" ”

"I'm not crazy because there's my wife there, and my unborn child." Luo Hao pointed to the dark jungle and said.

"Crazy Dragon, calm down!"

Zhou Bai grabbed Luo Hao's collar and yelled at him: "You yourself should know how dangerous it is to advance in the dark in such a high-density minefield at night!" I don't want to carry your mine-blown corpse out of this jungle! ”

Luo Hao broke Zhou Bai's hand on his collar, and said in a calm tone: "I'm very calm now, calmer than ever." The only way to intercept the ghosts before they lead them through the monument is to take advantage of the difference in time they rest at night to shorten the distance between them. Once the ghost takes people out of the realm, no one knows what will happen next, it is full of too many unknowns! ”

"If you can, lend me an extra lightning rod." Xu Xudong also opened his mouth to Wang Liwei and said: "Because among the two hostages who were kidnapped, the remaining one is my wife." It's not easy to find a wife these days, and since it's hard to get caught, I can't let her run away anymore. ”

In the face of Luo Hao and Xu Xudong's request, Wang Liwei did not refuse, because he could not refuse. The two of them made a request from the perspective of the hostage's husband and the father of the child in the hostage's womb, so no matter who it was, there was no way to refuse.

Wang Liwei asked two soldiers who were about the same height as Luo Hao and Xu Xudong to take off their explosion-proof suits and hand over their mine detectors.

Luo Hao only accepted the mine detector and lightning rod, and did not take the explosion-proof suit. As Wang Liwei himself said, the density of mines in this minefield is very high, and if it is accidentally detonated, it is very likely that a chain explosion will occur, and if that happens, even if you wear two sets of explosion-proof suits, it will not play any role.

So Luo Hao directly gave up the explosion-proof suit, not wanting to slow down his progress because of these few kilograms of weight.

"Tooth, let's go!"

Luo Hao patted the teeth that followed him, and walked into the endless abyss in front of him with Xu Xudong and the two of them, with no end in sight.

After learning that Yunxi was kidnapped, Luo Hao took his teeth with him when he set off from the dragon's den. This guy's sense of smell is sensitive and can track Yun Xi's scent, it is precisely because of the relationship that he has teeth, after entering the A49 area, Luo Hao completely confirmed that Jiang Wei took Yun Xi and Chen Yi and chose to leave the country through this minefield.

Zhou Bai looked at Luo Hao, Xu Xudong and Ya, who were gradually moving away, and said to the other three, "Let's go too." ”

"You're going with them, too?" Wang Liwei stopped in front of Zhou Bai and asked, "You just advised them to calm down, why are you yourself?" ”

"Persuade and persuade, but if you can't persuade them, if they insist on going crazy, I can only accompany them to go crazy." Zhou Bai patted Wang Liwei's shoulder, looked at the soldiers and non-commissioned officers sitting on the ground with a tired face, and said: "They are your brothers, and similarly, those two people just now are also my brothers, brothers who can trust each other with their lives." ”

Zhou Bai, Li Yifeng, Situ Kong, Lin Xiaoyang, and the four of them borrowed four sets of mine detectors and lightning rods from Wang Liwei, and followed the route taken by Luo Hao and Xu Xudong.

Looking at the tactical group B that disappeared into the dark jungle, Wang Liwei's eyes couldn't help but flash a look of admiration, and he shouted loudly: "Company commander, pick fifty people for me, let's follow!" Everyone is carrying a head on two shoulders, they are not afraid, can we still coax? Remember, these fifty people, I only need more than five years old, experienced veterans. If you are under five years, you should stay here and wait for dawn, and don't go in and die. ”
