The officers and men of the Eighth Company turned back in unison.

In the line of sight, Han Xiaobei stood at the back of the team, raised his right hand, his face was slightly red, and there was both a burning fighting spirit and the shyness unique to recruits in his eyes.

Zhang Jianxing didn't come back to his senses for a while, but he was the first to react.

"Xiaobei, have you thought about it?"

There were doubts in Solemn's heart.

As an infantryman, building a foxhole is, of course, a tactical subject.

Of course, Han Xiaobei has also studied, but he has only been exposed to this subject for two months.

The construction of foxholes, to put it bluntly, is a competition of physical strength.

It's not difficult, it's just that there is a standard, dig according to the standard, and meet the standard. The only thing that can be called technical is the soldier's use of sapper shovels.

The position of the spade should be accurate, the strength should be ruthless, the first digging type, and then refinement, compared with physical strength, fighting is speed.

It's a multi-skilled job.

"Squad leader, just let me play, I won't let you down." Han Xiaobei begged.

Solemnly thought about it and looked back at the company commander Zhang Jianxing.

Zhang Jianxing looked full of interest.

After all, Han Xiaobei's performance today is really good, completely breaking through his previous impression.

Although he is also not too sure whether Han Xiaobei can defeat the sappers, even those ground rats, it can even be said that he is not hopeful.

Who are the sappers?

These guys don't talk about foxholes, people often simulate mechanical failures during training, manually dig forward command posts or temporary large artillery positions, etc., those large civil fortifications are not comparable to small foxholes.

Although the infantry is strong in combat subjects, when it comes to plowing the ground and building fortifications, the engineer company really has to give a thumbs up and say the word "service".

This is also the reason why for many years, every time the 273rd Regiment has played this kind of ring competition, no one has ever won the project of building foxholes.

Combat subjects are not as good as you, compared to other people's old professions?

How can anyone else give you any chance?

But the soldiers of the engineer company were excited.

Not only the soldiers, but also the company commander of the engineer company, Du Xiaoning, smiled and said, "Okay! This soldier has courage! But don't just say you don't practice, come up! ”

Han Xiaobei still looked solemn, solemn still looked at Zhang Jianxing.

He's going to get approval.

Zhang Jianxing was silent for a moment, waved his hand and said, "Okay, you go up and try!" ”

The officers and men of the Eighth Company all turned around and gathered around the competition venue.

In fact, the so-called foxhole is a type of infantry bunker.

Infantry bunkers are mainly divided into individual bunkers and infantry squad bunkers, and the machine gun company also needs to learn the machine gun bunkers, and the fighters of the bazooka shooter, mortar and recoilless gun squads also have to learn the corresponding bunker construction.

The most common foxhole is a single bunker, which is commonly known as an earthen pit.

According to the length of combat readiness, it can be divided into three types: prone firing bunkers, kneeling firing bunkers, and standing firing bunkers, and machine gun bunkers also have anti-aircraft bunkers in addition to these three.

Of course, this pit is not without standards.

First of all, according to the different shooting positions, foxholes can be divided into lying position shooting single bunkers, kneeling shooting single bunkers, standing shooting single bunkers, and shooting stampede bunkers.

The location of the foxhole should be selected according to the combat mission, terrain conditions, enemy situation, social conditions, and firearm performance.

Among them, the single bunker pit for lying down shooting is 170 cm long, 25 cm deep, 180 cm wide at the front mouth, 60 cm wide at the back mouth, 30 cm in diameter at the cliff, 25-30 cm high on the left chest wall, and 10-15 cm high on the right chest wall of the mouth.

If you shoot a single bunker in a kneeling position, the depth is reduced by 80 cm, the cliff diameter is 30 cm, the mouth width is 90 cm, the bottom width is 70 cm, the left and right breastwork walls are 40 cm high, and the middle is 30 cm high.

The standing shooting single bunker is reduced by 110 cm, the bottom width is 50 cm, and the cliff diameter is 65 cm.

Among these kinds of foxholes, the simplest is the lying foxhole, and the most difficult is the standing foxhole.

Digging a foxhole sounds like a simple thing to do, just remember the criteria and dig it.

But in fact, whether the foxhole is qualified or not, the inspection requirements are very strict, all the standard errors shall not exceed 5 centimeters, the camouflage meets the requirements, and a series of small details such as bulldozing must be in front, otherwise it is unqualified.

In addition, there are also time regulations, according to the regulations in the infantry textbook, the lying position is required to be completed within 12 minutes, the kneeling position within 18 minutes, and the most difficult standing position is required to be completed within 36 minutes.

The average veteran digs this kind of pit in a third of the time, and it doesn't take as much time as the textbook calibrates.

It sounds like a simple one.

In fact, that is because the textbook assumes that it is a time and standard under "medium soil" conditions.

And, of course, the lower and higher.

What is inferiority? It is in some places where the soil is extremely soft, such as sandy ground and floating ground.

What is Higher? It's in those tundra zones in the north, where the ground is as hard as ice, and it can shake people's mouths out of the blood.

Today, the site set up here meets medium soil conditions, yellow mud meadow, moderate soil hardness, and no rocks.

Zhang Jianxing went up and asked, "Lao Du, how many in a group?" ”

The reason for this is because since it is a ring competition, it is more than how many foxholes are dug in a long time.

This method of playing does not take into account some details, only the speed and standard and the number of players to determine the winner or loser.

"Seven of them!" Du Xiaoyu said: "7 upper limits, count as a group. ”

Zhang Jianxing said: "Okay! ”

After finishing it, he returned to Zhuang Zhuang and Han Xiaobei, and said: "A group of 7, calculate the shortest time to finish digging, who has the best results, and today's ring champion is who's ......"

His gaze fell on Han Xiaobei's face and asked, "Are you sure you want to go?" ”

Han Xiaobei said: "Company commander, I haven't won the first place today." ”

Zhang Jianxing smiled: "Just like you, if you don't count first, I'm already satisfied, and I still expect you to take the first?" ”

Han Xiaobei was unconvinced: "Company commander, I promise to win." ”

Zhang Jianxing said: "The courage is commendable, I am very happy, but the matter of plowing the ground has always been the work of the engineer company, and you will not be ashamed if you lose." ”

Han Xiaobei stopped talking, and his eyes were full of that stubborn light.

He came to the field with a sapper shovel, and the sapper company also sent a soldier from there.

The recruits of the engineer company are tall and big, five big and three thick; Han Xiaobei is tall and thin, like a rolling pin.

"Let's go!"

With an order, the two of them began to dig the lying side foxholes one by one along the straight line of lime powder sprinkled out.

In the first three pits, the speed of the two is almost the same.

In the fourth pit, Han Xiaobei lagged behind.

In the fifth pit, Han Xiaobei was a little ahead.

In the sixth pit, the two are neck and neck again side by side.

At first, only two companies, the Eighth Company and the Engineer Company, were shouting "come on", but later, more and more people around them, and other companies gathered, and everyone was shouting "Come on", and they didn't know who was shouting for whom and who was cheering for whom.

The atmosphere suddenly became extremely intense, and in the twilight, hundreds of soldiers gathered together, and the green tendons on their necks shouted out.

Time flew by, and the sun had set over the distant mountains, watching with great interest as this group of soldiers were fighting chicken blood.

The Seventh Foxhole......

The dirt splashed behind the two of them, and the sweat soaked all the bodies of the two of them, and the sweat on their faces was mixed with muddy water, and they were already a paste.

Solemnly licked his lips and looked at his stopwatch.

Seven pits, the two of them took more than 49 minutes, and the average time for each pit was more than 7 minutes.

The two of them had already dug to the last bit, and the speed slowly slowed down.

Han Xiaobei's face was terribly red, and blood seemed to burst out under his skin.

The engineer company was no better than the recruit, his face was getting whiter and paler, and the sweat was dripping into the dirt like an unturned faucet.

"Done!"

A loud roar reached everyone's ears.
