Nanjing City, National Presidential Palace. Li Weidong saw the important purpose of rushing to Nanjing this time, the current President of the National Government Chiang Kai-shek.
The first time I saw Chiang Kai-shek, he was younger than what Li Weidong had seen in textbooks in his previous life. He was very thin, but he had the aura of a superior.
As a junior, of course Li Weidong could not make any gestures, but politely bowed to Chiang Kai-shek and said: "Mr. Jiang!"
No matter how future generations evaluate this man, whether he is hypocritical or focused on power, after all, in this uncertain era, he carries the backbone of this suffering country and nation.
Two flowers bloom, one on each side!
Philippines, US military base minefield, thrilling demining work continues.
Landmines are an easy-to-manufacture, cheap and efficient military weapon that can be easily deployed over a large regional area to prevent the enemy from advancing.
Landmines are usually laid manually, but there are also mechanized minelaying devices that can dig the ground and lay mines at specific intervals.
Mines are usually arranged in groups, called minefields or minefields, with the purpose of preventing or forcing the enemy to cross a specific area. Mines can also be used to hold the enemy back until reinforcements arrive.
The types of landmines are divided into two major categories, anti-infantry landmines and anti-tank landmines. As the names suggest, the basic functions of these two types of landmines are the same, targeting infantry and tanks respectively.
Anti-tank mines are usually larger, and the explosive content inside them is several times that of anti-personnel mines. The explosives in anti-tank mines are enough to destroy a tank or truck and kill anyone in or around the vehicle.
In addition, detonating anti-tank mines usually requires greater pressure, ranging from 158 kilograms to 338 kilograms. Most of these mines are distributed on roads, bridges and large open areas where tanks may pass.
Of course, what the hedgehog is stepping on now cannot be anti-tank mines, and Americans will not be stupid enough to bury anti-tank mines in the jungle that require more than 150 kilograms of pressure to detonate.
Wu Qiang carefully dug the soil around the hedgehog's feet, and soon revealed the metal shell on the edge of the mine, with the clear words M15 on it.
"Fortunately! It's a pressure-operated explosive mine! If it were a tripping mine, it would be really troublesome!" Wu Qiang said thankfully when he saw the external structure of the mine.
There are many types of landmines, and this mine is an anti-infantry mine that is detonated by a soldier stepping on a pressure plate and applying a pressure of more than fifteen kilograms.
Compared with other types of anti-personnel landmines, this pressure-operated explosive mine is less difficult to rescue. Moreover, Wu Qiang and others have received training in the training camp, and demining and mine-stepping rescue are all compulsory courses.
About ten minutes have passed since he stepped on the mine. The hedgehog has been maintaining the same movements as he did after stepping on the mine, without daring to move his body at all.
Although the gathering has now entered autumn and winter, and the weather is not as hot as summer, there is still a layer of sweat on everyone's forehead.
"Relax and don't move!" Wu Qiang continued to emphasize that the most taboo thing at this time is to be nervous. If they don't cooperate properly, the two of them will be "reimbursed" by the mine.
Without continuing to speak, Wu Qiang just slowly stabbed the dagger horizontally into the hedgehog's sole. The hedgehog could clearly feel the cold surface of the dagger on the soles of his feet.
Soon, the sharp dagger pierced the sole of the shoe horizontally, and the tip of the dagger emerged from the other side of the military boot. Wu Qiang pressed the handle and tip of the dagger with both hands, and then nodded to the hedgehog.
Taking a deep breath, the hedgehog tried his best to calm down. The laces of the military boots on his feet had already been untied, and the hedgehog slowly took out his right foot from the shoe.
At this time, everyone's anxiety was already in their throats, because if they were not careful, not only would the mission be exposed, but Wu Qiang and Hedgehog would probably die.
The fearful explosion did not sound. It seemed that Wu Qiang and the others succeeded. Wiping the cold sweat on their foreheads, the stones hanging in the hearts of Chu Daming and others finally fell to the ground.
Soon, several people worked together to lift a boulder half a meter in diameter and placed it on the military boots that Wu Qiang was holding down. When the boulder was pressed firmly, Wu Qiang slowly withdrew his hand.
"Okay! Let's move on! Be careful next time, too much time is wasted here!" Chu Daming said to his shocked teammates.
"I owe you a life, Wu Qiang! From now on you are my brother!" the hedgehog said seriously.
Afterwards, Wu Qiang and others walked extremely carefully, bypassing many mines that were extremely hidden and difficult to dismantle, and left the minefield after about half an hour.
Lying behind the jungle, a few people used binoculars to secretly observe the US military base opposite.
This is a very standard military camp structure. There is a ring of isolation wire around the camp, and two wooden sentry towers more than ten meters high. Searchlights are used to scan the camp.
"It's a bit troublesome! Wu Qiang! Monkey! Bobcat! The three of you lurk into the camp to rescue people, and the hedgehog is responsible for covering your evacuation! The coyote and I are snipers, responsible for shooting the American lookouts." Chu Daming analyzed the enemy situation and began to arrange tasks.
.
The others had no objection to Chu Daming's arrangement. Because snipers are not suitable for fighting in small indoor spaces, and are most suitable for sniping enemies from long distances and covering comrades.
After arranging their respective tasks, they took the time to rest. There will be a tough battle to fight soon, so they should gather more strength now.
The moonlight was covered by dark clouds, and the night was the best cover for night walkers. Wu Qiang and the other three crept close to the outer wire.
Iron wire is the most common defensive facility, used to defend against wild beasts or enemy soldiers. It is equipped with sharp iron wire, which can easily pierce clothes.
Outside the US military base, there is a wooden pile every seven meters or so, with a layer of barbed wire wrapped around each other. There is about a three centimeter gap between the two wires.
They quietly came to the wire, and just as the monkey was about to use the back teeth of his saber to cut off the bottom wire, the lynx suddenly held down his hand.
"Wait! Where are you looking?" The lynx motioned the monkey to look at the wooden pillar over there.
As he looked around, a cold air suddenly rushed into his bones. Under the faint moonlight, he could see a grenade ring extending along the wire. The other end was tied with a grenade ring.
If it weren't for the moonlight, where the grenade's ring was slightly reflective, it would have been difficult for them to spot such a concealed arrangement.
"Damn it! What the hell is this place? The defense is too insidious!" Monkey Xinxin retracted his hand and cursed softly.
It is strange to say that this US military camp is full of weirdness. Not to mention the degree of isolation of this place from the outside world, this level of defense is not something that ordinary military bases can have.
Ever since they approached this camp, every step had been scary. The half-mile-long minefield and the grenades secretly tied to the wire were extremely dangerous. A little carelessness could cause them heavy losses.
Seeing the grenade tied to the other end of the wire, the few people certainly did not dare to act rashly, but carefully removed the grenade on the wooden pillar.
