"Don't move! Look down and see if there are any mines near your feet! ”

Luo Laoqi's voice immediately made the artillery observers and scouts standing around become nervous. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The info scouts and artillery observers paused, then slowly crouched down to take a closer look at the ground around their foothold. From time to time, someone looked up at Liu Yutian, the commander of the reconnaissance company who remained motionless like a stone statue, and then lowered his head to continue to check the ground. The officers and men of the squad have now understood that they have strayed into a minefield!

Just a few seconds ago, everyone was still snickering at the fact that Company Commander Liu had found a way back for them that was not blocked by Japanese fire. A few seconds later, it was the feeling of five thunderbolts!

Now the only thing Luo Laoqi can be sure of is that this open land forgotten by the Japanese army is actually a minefield set up by devils, as for how big this minefield is, how many mines are buried in it, and how far the team has gone now, Luo Laoqi doesn't know anything, and other people won't know.

The shadow of death seemed to envelop all the Chinese officers and soldiers in the minefield at once, and the expressions on each of their faces became solemn!

"Is anyone else stepping on it? Make a noise when you step on a mine! ”

In the end, it was Company Commander Luo who spoke first to break the dead silence, and his question was spread by the officers and soldiers in a relay way, and half a minute later, the answer was transmitted back in a relay way.

The team's luck is not too good, and at present, only Liu Yutian, the only lucky person, stepped on the landmine. Maybe Luo Laoqi's current position is just the edge of a minefield, and if that's the case, they still have hope of exiting.

"Stay in place! Don't move anyone! Once you've got your gear ready, step on the footprints on the ground and step back! Scouts get ready for mine detection! We have to get out of the minefield first, and then find a way to go back to Taierzhuang! ”

After receiving the order from Company Commander Luo, the officers and soldiers immediately began to act, but Company Commander Liu could only stand in place and watch his soldiers walk past him in slow motion one by one, not daring to move.

"Lao Liu! Are you afraid? ”

Luo Laoqi's words belong to knowingly asking, Liu Yutian naturally will not give Luo Laoqi any attitude:

"What do you say? I'm gone with this thing as soon as it blows up! How not to be afraid? ”

Luo Laoqi gave Liu Yutian a thumbs up and praised:

"Don't talk big, what a man! Don't worry, I'm closer to you now, and even if this thing rings, I'll have to up before I can blow you up......."

After Luo Laoqi finished what he had to do, he could finally put all his energy into Liu Yutian. Company Commander Luo pulled out the bayonet from his scabbard, and then slowly squatted in front of Liu Yutian, and began to check what Liu Yutian was stepping on under his feet.

"Lao Liu, you hold on to it, as long as you hold on, this thing won't blow up......"

"You know you're afraid to stay and mess around here? I can tell you, I am the one who blew me, and I can't afford to drag you to death......"

Liu Yutian didn't want to kill Luo Laoqi because of himself, he Liu Yutian was just an ordinary reconnaissance company commander, but Luo Laoqi could be an eye for the cannon! Not long ago, Liu Yutian witnessed the tremendous power of the artillery regiment under the guidance of artillery observers! Now he has understood the value of people like Luo Laoqi!

If one of the two people must die, of course, it is more cost-effective to kill him Liu Yutian!

"You don't want to think about it, Lao Tzu, a backbone from the 99th Division, who has listened to the lectures of the German big nose, is not sure that he will accompany you to mess around here?"

Luo Laoqi didn't even raise his head, and directly threw a rhetorical question to Company Commander Liu. This time, Luo Laoqi's words were not robbed by Company Commander Liu, on the contrary, Liu Yutian's heart became more down-to-earth because of Luo Laoqi's rhetorical question.

Liu Yutian knew very well that none of his scouts had the ability to remove the Japanese mine under his feet, and this kind of technical work was not something that could be played by any person. Not to mention his Liu Yutian's reconnaissance company, even in the entire 31st Division, and even in the entire 2nd Army, there are few people who understand!

Now Liu Yutian can only pin his hopes on Luo Laoqi, the "elite of the Central Army" who came out of the 99th Division.

"What, you kid really have a way to save me?" After suffering for a while, Liu Yutian couldn't help but ask Luo Laoqi this question.

"Uh-huh....."

This is Company Commander Luo's answer.

"Lao Luo, did you learn from your German master?" Liu Yutian obviously didn't give up, so he asked again.

"Uh-huh....."

Luo Laoqi's answer is as deadly!

"You melon baby isn't fooling Lao Tzu here, are you?" Liu Yutian was in a hurry, he didn't want to waste his precious time on hopeless things. He has been standing in place for four or five minutes, maybe in the next second, Li Yutian will be discovered by the devil! Then he and Luo Laoqi will have to die! Then the squad will have no commander!

"If you don't want to die, shut up!"

Luo Laoqi's words were very impulsive, but they contained strong self-confidence. After Liu Yutian was scolded by Luo Laoqi, he finally quieted down.

Yes, now he can't do anything, life and death, all please Luo Laoqi! It's no wonder that the people who came out of the 99th Division are angry! Whether it's the guided artillery just now, or the current demining, people can really do it at a critical time!! In the Chinese army, I am afraid that only Commander Huang's troops can wrestle with the elite soldiers of the little devils......

War is not only about weapons and equipment, but also about the quality of soldiers! A comparison of the cultural quality of Chinese and Japanese soldiers shows how big the gap between the two armies is!

About 95% of the soldiers in the Chinese army are illiterate, and less than 5% are literate, and as of 1936, only one province in China has implemented compulsory education in Guangxi (some provinces such as Shanxi Province have tried compulsory education, but it is not mandatory, and basic education in many provinces is only for male children, only Guangxi Province has made it mandatory for both boys and girls to participate in compulsory education), and as an evaluation index for rural officials, only 3% of China's population receives compulsory education.

However, in the same period, 99% of the population in Japan has basically achieved compulsory primary education. More than 98% of the soldiers in the Japanese army have gone to primary school, Japan began to promote compulsory education in 1868 Meiji Restoration, and the popularization rate of compulsory education in Japan in the 20s of the 20th century was as high as 95%, and by 1936, 100% compulsory education in primary school had been completed in rural Japan, and compulsory secondary education began to be universalized in cities.

Less than 10 percent of the Chinese army's non-commissioned officers and squad leaders have received primary school education or training, while more than 90 percent of the Japanese army's military officers have received secondary school education or graduated from professional non-commissioned officer schools.

In terms of junior officers, only about 50 percent of the junior officers in the Chinese military have received a secondary education or higher or graduated from a military school. More than half of the junior officers of the Japanese army had received higher education or graduated from specialized military colleges.

The gap in the quality of officers has directly led to the fact that the development direction of the Chinese army has lagged behind that of the Japanese army at the same time. Take this mine under the feet of Company Commander Liu as an example, the Japanese divisions and regiments on the Chinese battlefield are basically equipped with formed engineering wings, and these Japanese engineers can not only lay mines and clear mines, but also build bridges and build roads and railways, while the Chinese army, on the other hand, does not have a few professional demining engineers at all! In the minds of most of the senior generals of the Central Army and the miscellaneous army, the engineering units are nothing more than a group of coolies who carry shovels to repair fortifications, and sometimes they can't even repair fortifications!

In contrast, the judgment is made!

It didn't take a while, Luo Laoqi used a bayonet to dig up a lot of soil next to the mine, he lay at Liu Yutian's feet and carefully observed for a while before he came to the conclusion that the mine under the feet of Liu Lian Chang was a pressure mine, as long as Liu Yutian raised his foot, the mine would be detonated.

Luo Laoqi basically deduced from the shape and size of the mine that the charge inside would not be too small, and a thin Sichuan person like Liu Yutian should throw Liu Yutian's whole person into the air when the mine explodes, and fly directly.

The high tension of nerves for a long time accelerated the speed of muscle fatigue of Lian Chang Liu, but in just a few minutes, Liu Yutian's muscles showed signs of stiffness. It's not hard to stand alone for hours on a rock, but if you know that you have a mine under your feet, it's not the same concept at all.

Fear can quickly eat away at your physical strength and willpower. A few minutes can be as long as years.

Luo Laoqi suddenly noticed that Liu Yutian's right thigh began to tremble slightly when he stepped on the mine, he knew that he had to say something to distract Liu Yutian, and he didn't know what was going on, Luo Laoqi actually said something like this:

"Lao Liu, do you think the Japanese know that we have entered a minefield? Now that I think about it, like I said before, this open field is a set at all! ”

Liu Yutian's head buzzed, as if someone had thrown a grenade inside, and under Luo Laoqi's inadvertent prompt, Liu Yutian finally sensed the abnormality of the Japanese army!

This minefield was only forty or fifty meters away from the devil's position, and it was obviously a trap set by the Japanese army to defend against the night attacks of the Chinese army.

Since the devils are even prepared for night attacks, how can they not leave sentries to monitor this minefield? The squad had been here for so long, and the Japanese sentries should have discovered them a long time ago. If you don't do it yet, what are the devils waiting for?

"Damn! I'm afraid the little devil is watching our monkey show right now! If my guess is correct, the brothers in the back will soon be attacked by the Japanese! They're going to seal us up in this minefield, and then they're going to drive us to the mines with guns! These inhuman brutes! ”

This kind of situation that Liu Yutian thought of could be the worst situation that the team might encounter! Luo Laoqi listened to Liu Yutian's analysis and couldn't help but shudder!

As if to prove that Liu Yutian guessed correctly, from behind Company Commander Liu and Luo Laoqi, a gunshot suddenly rang out!
