C46 (1/2)

In the dark underground, the mining lamp's flickering light made Zhu Yingqiong's face look extremely pale in contrast. However, when she heard the two words ”mine,” she kept her body in a fixed position, looking relatively calm.

My entire body couldn't help but tremble and cold sweat instantly covered my forehead. I never expected to meet a weapon with such great destructive power like a mine.

I once heard from Fourth Uncle that in the chaotic regions of Myanmar and Viet Nam, warlords are separated and the ground is often covered with mines.

But none of us thought that the Sakyamuni Army would actually install mines under the ground. Fuck, are we going to bomb outsiders or the monsters inside the stone walls?

I have never been a soldier, nor do I have such knowledge. Being able to barely recognize the mines is already something the Fourth Uncle gave me at that time.

I nervously swallowed my saliva and said to Zhu Yingqiong: ”Calm down and don't move recklessly, I'm thinking of a way.”

However, Zhu Yingqiong said, ”There definitely isn't just one mine underground. Furthermore, it could be a chain of lightning that easily detonates.

Swish!

Before she could finish speaking, when Duan Hui, who was at the side, heard the three words ”chain thunder”, he suddenly jumped up from the ground.

I was already used to this fellow's selfish character, so I immediately loosened the corner of Zhu Yingqiong's pants and slowly dug around with my hands to open up a 3 metre wide hole. As expected, I saw that there were still 7 or 8 mines hidden underneath the mud, if Zhu Yingqiong had not reminded me, I would have been hit by them too.

Zhu Yingqiong maintained her position and did not dare to move. With a slightly trembling voice, she asked, ”Chen San, do you want to carefully look at this Japanese or our own mine?”

I stared. ”How?”

Zhu Yingqiong said: ”There is only one type of Japanese mines. There are many types of mines in China, iron mines, stone mines, chain mines, etc. These mines are very easy to remove, as long as you can find the needles on top of the gunpowder.”

When I heard that, I hastily waved my hands and said, ”You should still talk about Japanese mines.”

Zhu Yingqiong muttered to herself, ”Go along the edge of the mines and avoid the pipes, and see if there are any corpses under the mines!”

I was momentarily stunned, I didn't understand what Zhu Yingqiong meant by that, but I knew that this wasn't the time to ask, so I could only do as she said. As expected, I dug a bit deeper into the ground along the path she had stepped on, and the dense bones were immediately revealed, probably on the back of a corpse.

I then dug out the soil underneath the other mines. The situation was the same, there was a skeleton underneath every mines, Zhu Yingqiong's face immediately darkened, after being silent for a moment she said: ”This is a Japanese 93rd Type Anti-Tank Mine!”

Zhu Yingqiong had received all kinds of training from Charles since she was young, so it was normal for him to know all of these, but I have never come into contact with them before. It's like listening to books on the heavens, after a long period of time, I have scoured the internet for the '93rd Armored Anti-Tank Mines'.

The so-called anti-tank mine was a type of mine specially designed to destroy or destroy tanks and armoured vehicles. It was extremely powerful and could even destroy tanks, let alone humans.

Because this type of mine was specifically used to destroy tanks and armoured vehicles, there were even more explosives inside. They had to be stepped on by a force of more than 180 kg in order to trigger the fuse, and to cause a mine explosion, the vehicles would have to press on them to trigger.

After the Japanese Army had been improved, it had become a Type 93 Anti-Tank Mine, which was used in large amounts of human flesh bombs. It was to install this type of mine on the bodies of soldiers or captives, and then kill oneself and charge into the enemy's camp, causing an explosion.

Back in the day, when Japanese Army was fighting with American forces on Sulfur Island, they had used this kind of human explosive package to blow up American tanks and armoured vehicles. Furthermore, the difference between it and the mines was that the human explosive package could automatically find the enemy, which was very consistent with the characteristics of Japanese Army.

Every single mine under our feet has a skeleton under them, which means that this is the explosion package for Japanese Army. Each mine under our feet has a radius of about nine meters, and with so many explosion packages under our feet, it will cause a chain reaction, and at that time, the entire tunnel might collapse.

It was hard to imagine, why did the Japanese Army do this back then?

Were these powder packs meant to keep things from rushing out from behind the stone walls?

What exactly did they encounter behind the underground stone wall?

I couldn't believe it, so I asked Zhu Yingqiong: ”How do I remove it?”

Zhu Yingqiong shook her head with a pale face: ”There's no way to remove it. The Japanese used it as a suicide attack that simply cannot be removed. Chen San, you can leave.

I angrily said, ”What kind of words are those? As I said before, I will never abandon my friends. Quickly think of a way to dismantle it, I think the modern mines in the movies and TV dramas can be removed. I don't believe that this product from decades ago will be even more high-end than the one we have now! ”

Zhu Yingqiong took a deep breath, she stared at me with shining eyes, and sighed: ”I'm getting more and more unable to understand you, aren't you afraid of death?”

”Afraid, why not?”

I placed the light of the mine lamp on the mine and observed it as I said, ”I'm more afraid of death than anyone else, but I'm more afraid of the people around me dying before me. I can see the leads below.”

Zhu Yingqiong said in a speechless manner, ”The moment the lead wire is pulled, it would explode. Look closely next to the lead wire, and see if there is any hit needles. The hit needles are usually connected to the iron shell above the gunpowder, and as long as you can find the hit needles, you might still have a chance of survival!”
