Chapter 86 Rainforest Minefield

The weather in Yanjing is exceptionally sunny today, and the temperature is still gradually rising. Occasionally, you can see a few swallows lining up to rest on the wires outside the house, chirping.

A ray of sunlight shines on Chu Ge's face through the window. The angle changes little by little, and the temperature becomes more and more intense.

It's just that Chu Ge can't feel anything now. He is lying upright and even breathing weakly.ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ

Chu Ge's appearance didn't seem to have changed much. Except for the soaked clothes on his body, he seemed to be in midsummer at this moment.

Chu Ge was sweating more and more on his body, especially on his head. In addition to the sweat, there was also a faint white air. I don't know if it was due to the midday sun exposure or the transpiration in Chu Ge's body.

...

The "Fox Shadow" group walking in the tropical rain forest is not so lucky. The climate of the rain forest is unpredictable. The sun was shining just one moment, and it may rain heavily the next second.

They were soaked last night, and the tight schedule gave them no time to dry their clothes.

Now, after being scorched by the sun, sweat, and rain mixed together, making the clothes inside and outside stick tightly to their bodies and become sticky, it felt really uncomfortable.

Unfortunately, the environment here requires you to tie up your sleeves, because even if you expose a little gap, those blood-sucking things will worm their way into your body regardless of your safety.

If a thin leech succeeds, it will quickly turn itself into a fat man like a magic trick.

Fortunately, this rainforest path should have been traveled several times by people, so it is not difficult to walk, and you can even vaguely discern a path under your feet.

If it was an inaccessible rainforest, "Fox Shadow" estimated that it would take at least three times longer for this distance.

"Boss, the map indicates that we are entering a minefield again ahead."

After "Monkey" looked at the map, he quickly called out to "Fox Shadow" in front of him.

"Well, watch your steps. Although we have a map of the minefield, it is inevitable that there will be mines that have been washed away from their original positions by the rain. I don't want to get hit by one in this damn place."

"Fox Shadow" has seen several minefields in several places, including those in Africa, Eastern Europe, and South America, but many of them are left over from World War II.

There are a lot of them, but they are not very complicated.

The minefields in this tropical rainforest were an eye-opener for them. To describe them as layer upon layer is no exaggeration.

Anti-tank mines, anti-personnel mines, these are the most basic ones. The dazzling ones are those special purpose mines, such as butterfly mines, directional mines, booby mines, trip mines, etc.

Not only were there many types, but the quantity was astonishing. "Fox Shadow" felt that a large part of them were not arranged by hand at all.

Instead, they were spread directly from the air by airplane, because they were not buried at all, just exposed.

Along the way, they discovered that many mines around the minefield had been detonated, and there were skeletons of humans or animals scattered around the detonation area.

This is the real deal.

"Black Bear, as per the old rules, you go at the front and cheer up. Mad, our lives are tied at your feet."

Seeing that he was about to enter the minefield, "Fox Shadow" waved to "Black Bear" to come forward. Despite his rugged appearance, "Black Bear" was probably the most delicate in this team when doing this job.

The "black bear" was sometimes fast and sometimes slow in front, and everyone behind him followed his footsteps, and the speed was not slow at all.

After more than 30 minutes of this, it was two or three o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, the tropical rainforest reached its hottest time of the day.

The people in the mercenary team need to stop from time to time to replenish salt water.

Marching in such an environment is a test of human endurance. Slowly, the distance between the marching teams becomes wider and wider.

The "Black Bear" walking at the front suddenly stopped at this moment, and then raised his right hand. Everyone behind him stopped, looked around warily, and slowly pulled the trigger with his finger.

"Black Bear, is there something going on?"

"Fox Shadow" was not far behind the black bear. After observing a circle, he asked in a low voice.

"Captain, I'm afraid what you just said is about to come true."

"What?"

"Fox Shadow" said, already approaching.

"Yesterday's heavy rain washed away a section of the road, which also changed the distribution of landmines in this area. Look!"

"Black Bear" said and pointed forward. Several compression-fire infantry mines were exposed and raised above several rocks. The traces under the rocks were obviously washed away by floods.

"What should I do? Is it too late to clear the mines?"

"Fox Shadow" asked after looking around.

"On my own, I can't clear such a large density in a short while."

"However, this place is still some distance from the border, so you can try blasting."

"Black Bear" said, taking out the map, carefully identifying it, and then nodded affirmatively towards "Fox Shadow".

"I think it's okay. You work quickly and clear a passage quickly. I'll go back and tell them."

After "Fox Shadow" finished speaking, he turned around and walked back. "Black Bear" took off the backpack on his back and took out a bundle of fuses. After carefully identifying the situation in front of him, he walked a few steps to the exposed areas.

After surrounding the mines, he squatted down and began to arrange them carefully.

Ten minutes later, the "Black Bear" followed a fuse and slowly retreated to a safe distance, turned around, looked at the "Fox Shadow" and made a gesture.

After seeing the boss's signal, he pulled hard, and the fuse was ignited with a "chichi" sound, burning forward rapidly. The "black bear" instinctively covered his ears and fell to the ground.

In an instant, "boom, boom, boom" explosions came one after another. After more than a dozen explosions, everyone raised their heads. White smoke filled the front, and the smell of gunpowder filled the air.

The infantry mines should have detonated a small area of ​​mines around them, which is why there were continuous explosions. It took a long time for the stones blown up by the mines to fall around the "Black Bear" and others.

After the rain of stones, "Fox Shadow" and the others groped their way to the explosion area, where a deep crater had been blown. The power of an anti-infantry mine was actually limited. After all, it was not a big thing like an anti-tank mine. If

If more than a dozen of them explode at the same time, that's another story.

"Black Bear" looked at it carefully, and after finding that there was nothing wrong, he nodded to the boss.

"Okay, let's move on. After crossing this minefield, let's rest for a while and hold on."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and the group continued walking forward.
