    Landmine met and greeted everyone unexpectedly, and everyone was shocked for a moment.

    Comrade Ma Xiaodong, who was originally calm and composed, now had a rare panic in his eyes. Remembering that he was stepping on a landmine that could kill him on the spot, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, cold sweat broke out, and he felt almost desperate.  Fear, however restrained, is futile.

    This is far more frightening than having the Sword of Damocles hanging over your head.

    "Don't be afraid! I'm here!" Squad leader Wei Jiangong's voice sounded again.

    This comforting voice makes people feel at ease.  Only then did Ma Xiaodong truly feel the importance of Squad Leader Wei. He was the backbone of the entire checkpoint and the elder brother that all the comrades in the checkpoint relied on.  Although he had been a soldier for eight years, he had lived in a state of confusion during these years. Apart from bragging and arguing, he seemed to have learned no other skills.

    Wei Jiangong leaned down and dug the soil around the mine very carefully with his hands. His head was almost touching the ground, and he was very close to the mine. Needless to say, it was dangerous.

    "Squad leader! Demining is too dangerous, please leave quickly! Leave me alone!" Ma Xiaodong almost begged the squad leader to leave. He didn't want to implicate the squad leader because of himself.  Anyway, I am just a bachelor, it doesn't matter even if I am glorious.

    But the squad leader is different. He has a family and a lovely daughter who has been born for almost a year but has not yet met.

    "What nonsense! Stop and don't move, don't fucking bother me!" Wei Jiangong didn't even raise his head and continued to do what he was supposed to do. He had already started clearing mines.

    Before clearing mines, let¡¯s talk about what landmines are.

    There are all kinds of landmines in the world, and every landmine is almost a fusion of the thinking and wisdom of the people who made and laid the mines.  However, no matter how strange and varied landmines are, they are composed of two major parts: explosives and detonating devices.

    Explosives are dead, but detonating devices can be ever-changing and endless.  However, there are only three types of commonly used detonating devices: trigger, pressure and trip.

    The landmine Ma Xiaodong stepped on was a pressure mine. When a person steps on it, a spring inside the mine is compressed due to gravity. If the person stepping on it continues to move forward without any awareness, then the gravity acting on the mine disappears.  , the compressed spring rebounds, so that the contacts come into contact, the detonating device is activated, and the mine explodes immediately, without any doubt.

    Squad leader Wei Jiangong smiled and wanted to remove the mine. What he had to do was to keep the mine's detonating device in a dormant state without being activated before people evacuated safely.

    ¡°However, demining is an extremely dangerous and rigorous technical task, and non-professionals must not imitate it.

    If you were to rank all the dangerous occupations in the world, demining would definitely be at the top.  Just imagine, even if a deminer succeeds in demining hundreds of times, if he fails once, everything will be over, because life is only once for everyone.  This is not a game. If you fail, you can start over.

    In the words of the deminers themselves, demining requires courage, carefulness and not fear of death.

    It is certain that deminers first need to be brave. If you think about it carefully, if you are not brave enough to play with a mine at close range that can destroy you at any time, you should be so scared that you will wet your pants and your hands and feet will be shaking, so what's the point?  Demining?

    Secondly, it is necessary to be careful, because every mine is different. If you are not careful, how can you clarify your thoughts and understand the situation? Moreover, there are many people who lay mines. In order to confuse the people who clear the mines, they often install other equipment on the mines.  If you are not careful with your gadgets, you will undoubtedly die.

    As for not being afraid of death, it¡¯s a bit nonsense, because there are no people in the world who are truly not afraid of death.  However, why do so many revolutionary martyrs and people's heroes dare to shed their lives and blood, and continue to sacrifice themselves bravely?  In official terms, it means having faith in one's heart, thereby showing fearless revolutionary heroism.

    At least, the current Wei Jiangong has these three items for the time being.

    However, the problem is that demining still requires the minimum tools. The soldiers on patrol this time only carried an August 1 rifle on their backs and a magazine pouch on their chest, which only contained a live ammunition clip. There were only ten bullets in the magazine.  .  Other than that, there is no other equipment.  Even the Bayi rifles carried by this group of soldiers on patrol did not even have a stab.

    So, what is used to clear mines?

    Fortunately, this problem did not stump Wei Jiangong. This veteran who had been a soldier for ten years was very familiar with all the equipment in his hands and could use it skillfully.

    But when he saw him retreating slightly, he made a click and pulled the gun behind the barrel.Press the release button and disassemble the Bayi rifle in a few seconds.  He pulled out a thin iron pillar the size of a ballpoint pen refill from the air tube of the Bayi rifle, and used this thin iron pillar as the only demining tool.

    There is a chopstick-sized hole on the side of the black round box-shaped mine, which was originally the socket for the safety pin.  In order to prevent the mines from exploding during storage and transportation, mine makers inserted safety pins into each mine. The safety pins would not be removed until the mines were buried.

    What Wei Jiangong has to do at this moment is to insert this thin iron pillar through the thin hole to replace the safety pin, thus preventing the detonation device from starting.  This is a very challenging technical job, but if there is a few mistakes, everything will be over.

    When Wei Jiangong, sweating all over his head, carefully inserted the thin iron pillar into the small hole, the mine vibrated slightly.  Wei Jiangong breathed a sigh of relief.

    "Now you turn around slowly, and then gently move your right leg. The movement should be small and the speed should be slow." Wei Jiangong raised his head slightly and said to Ma Xiaodong.

    "Squad leader, you evacuate first, and I will evacuate later. I don't trust you here, just in case" Ma Xiaodong said nervously. He wanted to say what to do if the landmine exploded, but he just couldn't say it.

    "What nonsense are you talking about! I don't have time to argue with you now. Hurry up, be slow and move gently." Wei Jiangong tensed up and his tone became serious.

    Cheng Chong and Liu Bingbing were crawling not far away. The scene in front of them was so vivid that they couldn't help but sweat secretly.

    "Then well, squad leader, you must be careful. As soon as I retreat, you will retreat immediately." Ma Xiaodong's face was extremely ugly at the moment, and it was extremely difficult for him to make this decision.  He didn't want to implicate the squad leader, but he didn't want the two of them to have a stalemate in this dangerous zone.

    According to Wei Jiangong¡¯s words, Ma Xiaodong gently moved his right leg away. The moment his right leg left the mine, Wei Jiangong shouted: ¡°Lie down¡ª¡ª¡±

    When Ma Xiaodong heard the shouting, he didn't care about anything. He turned around and rushed straight towards Wei Jiangong, pressing Wei Jiangong tightly under him.

    What is a comrade?  What is a brother?  What is Paoze?  What is deep friendship?  This is.

    But this landmine did not explode immediately as expected. It still stayed in place quietly, without even making a sound.

    Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the stone hanging in their hearts finally landed safely.  Cheng Chong and Liu Laobing stood up grandly and approached the squad leader as if nothing had happened.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
