Zhong Yuemin and the others heard the sound and looked back, only to see Zhao Shucheng not far behind them.

"Ning Wei, why are you walking without making any sound?"

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "Isn't this as it should be? After all, if you can't do this, how can you sneak into the enemy? It's a pity that you can't wear such special shoes when you participate in the battle this time. You need to wear our uniform steel plate shoes."

Zhong Yuemin asked curiously: "Why not? Isn't everything based on facilitating operations and improving combat effectiveness?"

Zhao Shucheng shook his head and said, "Brother Yuemin, that's because you don't understand the situation. The monkeys in the south are very insidious. They not only set up mines, but also bamboo stick arrays. The mountains there are rugged and there are inexhaustible bamboo forests and trees, so they set up bamboo stick traps. Our mission this time is urgent, and we are a small force. It is impossible to use common tree trunks rolling or throwing stones to break the traps. This is too time-consuming, so we can only use the shoes with full defense value to quickly pass through that area."

Zhao Shucheng and his team did not have much time to adjust. After the supplies were prepared, they took a transport plane to the Southwest Military Region. After landing, they did not delay and immediately headed straight to the border and entered the subtropical jungle.

After the group entered the jungle, Zhao Shucheng took the lead to explore the way, and the others followed Zhao Shucheng's footsteps.

Just when they were halfway there, Zhao Shucheng suddenly heard a sound and quickly signaled for the others to hide.

"what happened?"

Zhao Shucheng said: "I feel something is wrong ahead, we may have encountered the enemy."

"On what basis?"

"No, it's just a feeling. And just now a bird flew out of the woods not far away and kept circling without landing."

Zhang Haiyang asked: "Our current location is still thirty kilometers away from the final target location."

Zhong Yuemin said: "You only know how to read the map. According to my experience, in the subtropical jungle, if the map shows 30 kilometers, we have to walk at least 60 to 70 kilometers."

Suddenly, Zhao Shucheng asked everyone else to shut up.

When others were wondering, Zhao Shucheng saw the branches of bushes shaking in the distance, and then a group of militants emerged.

"Boss, I think the wind direction is not very good today. We have a tailwind. This nose can't smell anything."

"Oh, this is not good. Your nose is our radar. How can we survive without radar? If the other party has a good nose, we will suffer. Brothers, be extra careful."

"Don't worry, Boss. We brothers have been fighting in jungles for many years. It's hard to say if we were in other places, but in the jungle, we are all masters of jungle warfare."

The eldest brother said, "The situation has been tense lately, so you have to be extra careful. Last time we were ambushed, our brothers died inexplicably. Fortunately, they were not familiar with the terrain, otherwise none of us would have been able to escape."

Radar said, "Boss, I'll go take a look ahead."

"Okay, old rules, no one will be left alive."

Zhong Yuemin and his men also saw the enemy not far away. They looked at each other, then dispersed and prepared to fight.

The group of people walked forward cautiously and gradually entered their ambush circle in Zhao Shucheng.

The two sides were about to engage in close combat, but the other side seemed to have noticed something, slowed down, and even looked for cover.

Zhao Shucheng knew that they couldn't wait any longer. After all, they were more familiar with the terrain here, and if the two sides continued to be deadlocked, they would not have the advantage.

So after saying something to Zhong Yuemin and the others, Zhao Shucheng left his current hiding place alone, preparing to attack from behind and not giving them any chance to escape.

Their mission this time is to get the document package. If they let these people escape and notify the enemy, they will inevitably face pursuit and interception.

When Zhao Shucheng came to the back and was about to shoot, he saw one of the men suddenly turn his head and look in Zhao Shucheng's direction.

Although he didn't know how the other party discovered him, Zhao Shucheng knew that he could no longer get closer, nor could he continue to wait, so he directly shot and killed the armed man who was looking at this side.

After the gunshots rang out, Zhang Haiyang and Zhong Yuemin began shooting at the targets that had been identified long ago, while Zhao Shucheng acted as a sniper to suppress those who resisted most fiercely.

Because the special forces Zhao Shucheng brought out were those he had trained himself, and their marksmanship was the best, so all the militants except the leader were quickly subdued.

Zhong Yuemin and his men caught up with the leader, who seemed to know that Zhao Shucheng was on his escape route. He had no way to escape, so he simply took poison.

Zhong Yuemin shouted, "Come out, you have nowhere to escape. You won't come out, right? Well, I'll kill you with a grenade. I just think it's a burden to carry prisoners. I'll count to three, one, two!"

"Wait! I surrender!"

The boss came out with a gun in hand, and when he saw Zhong Yuemin and the others, he said, "Don't shoot."

Zhang Haiyang and Zhong Yuemin began to interrogate the other party, only then did they know that he was an educated youth who had been sent to the countryside to work in a production team. He was once a gangster at the Shichahai Skating Rink, but he couldn't stand the hardship of being sent to the countryside to work in a production team, so he fled from the educated youth point and started smuggling.

He knew that he could not live any longer, and that Zhong Yuemin and the others were all from Beijing, so before he died he kindly reminded Zhong Yuemin that the minefield two kilometers ahead was a death zone, and asked Zhong Yuemin and the others not to go any further.

Zhao Shucheng said, "Since you said it was a death zone, but you were able to pass through it, you must have your own path. Would you mind telling us?"

The boss glanced at Zhao Shucheng and said, "Unfortunately, there is no mine map. The reason why we can pass safely is because the radar has a good nose and can find the mine sites in advance. Even so, more than a dozen of my brothers died there. It was a huge minefield with mines everywhere. If you are going to die, don't move forward!"

Zhong Yuemin and his team looked at each other after hearing this. They saw that the other party had committed suicide by taking poison, but the mission had to be completed, so they had to find a way to get through the minefield ahead. After Zhao Shucheng and his team walked two kilometers, they arrived at the minefield.

Zhao Shucheng stopped and looked at the others before saying, "Brothers, we have arrived at the minefield. We seem to have entered a blind spot and cannot contact the headquarters, so we cannot use cluster bombing to break through the minefield. We can only clear the mines manually and find a passage."

Zhong Yuemin said: "It's closed."

"Yuemin, we don't have many men, and I'm worried about this minefield."

"Yes, now we don't know how deep this minefield is or how wide it is. I'm afraid that even if all ten of us were to fill in, we still wouldn't be able to get through this minefield. That would be really pathetic."

Seeing the serious expressions of the others, Zhong Yuemin said, "We had already agreed on this operation before we came. It would be fun to fight the militants with real weapons, but the most terrible thing is this minefield. If it really comes, no one knows how deep it is, but we must pass it before dark, and there are still five hours left until dark."

Wu Mantun said: "Yuemin, how about I take two soldiers to lead the way."

Zhang Haiyang said: "It's too late. Relying on mine detectors and manual mine clearance is too slow and too dangerous."

Zhao Shucheng said, "We can only take it one step at a time. We brought detonating cords with us, so we can open a passage first and pave a path with fallen tree trunks. We will explore forward step by step, but we will try to go in a straight line as much as possible, after all, we only have a limited amount of detonating cords."

"That's all we have to do."

Zhao Shucheng led two soldiers from the fifth squad to clear the way with detonating cords, and soon blasted out a passage and cleared the mines one by one. However, as they continued to move forward, the detonating cords were used up, but they were still unable to get out of the minefield.

Zhao Shucheng frowned, looked at the sky, then looked at the others, and said, "There is no other way now. We can only use mine rods to clear the mines manually. I will be the first one, and the others will wait behind and follow my steps. If I die, the others in the special forces will go forward to clear the mines one by one. We must open a passage!"

"Ning Wei..."

Zhong Yuemin wanted to say something, but Zhao Shucheng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm very lucky, and God can't take me away yet. Only my mine-clearing skills are the best among this group of people, so I am most likely to find the correct passage."

Zhao Shucheng said, regardless of other people's opinions, threw away his backpack, took the mine detector, and explored forward step by step. However, Zhao Shucheng did not remove all the mines he found. Except for the jumping mines on the top of his head and the branches, he simply marked the mines on the ground and continued to clear them.

The others looked at Zhao Shucheng nervously. Seeing Zhao Shucheng find one mine after another, they couldn't help but be happy for Zhao Shucheng, but they were still a little worried.

When Zhao Shucheng was about to insert the mark, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. This was not a simple landmine, but a specially arranged booby trap, and there were three of them connected together. If it could not be solved, it would be very dangerous even if Zhong Yuemin and his men came over.

Zhao Shucheng could only take out his bayonet, carefully remove the mine buried in the soil, then remove the fuse, put it aside, and continue to clear the mines.

After some hard work, Zhao Shucheng finally walked out of the minefield. He waved to Zhong Yuemin and the others and asked them to quickly pass through the minefield and move towards the target location.

They found the document package that the leader mentioned and returned the same way, but they didn't expect that the enemy seemed to have noticed Zhao Shucheng and his men's actions and began to chase and intercept them.

After all, Zhao Shucheng and his men were outnumbered, and completing the mission was their top priority, so they could only fight and retreat at the same time. In order to protect his comrades, Wu Mantun was accidentally shot, but fortunately he was not injured in the vital parts, and was supported by Zhong Yuemin.

Zhao Shucheng knew that if they continued to be chased like this, they would be caught up one by one sooner or later, and as the number of wounded increased, they would not be able to escape.

Zhao Shucheng could only leave behind three soldiers to set up a blocking position to give Zhong Yuemin and his men time to pass through the minefield.

Fortunately, this is a jungle, so it is convenient for Zhao Shucheng and his men to hide and shoot. The enemy monkeys are not targeting monkeys and it is impossible for them to rush forward all at once, so this gives Zhao Shucheng time to catch his breath.

However, as the battle progressed, Zhao Shucheng and his men's ammunition was about to run out. In order to avoid becoming a prisoner of the enemy, Zhao Shucheng could only fight and retreat with the soldiers until they entered the minefield.

The monkeys chased very enthusiastically at the beginning, thinking that Zhao Shucheng and his men were exhausted. But after they entered the minefield, they realized why Zhao Shucheng and his men were so cautious.

It’s not that no one had thought of following Zhao Shucheng and his men into the minefield, but they didn’t expect that Zhao Shucheng had already prepared for this. So when retreating, he directly used the mines that had been laid out before to re-set booby traps and blocked their pursuit route.

Zhong Yuemin and his team did not evacuate directly. Instead, after passing through the minefield, they looked nervously in the direction of the minefield, expecting to see Zhao Shucheng and his team.

As Zhao Shucheng and others appeared, Zhong Yuemin and Zhang Haiyang stood up excitedly and waved.

After Zhao Shucheng passed through the minefield, he said, "Captain, we can't stay here any longer. They will soon know our location. Although they can't pass through the minefield, they will carry out covering bombing. We must move immediately."

Zhong Yuemin also knew that time was urgent, and Wu Mantun's condition also required immediate return to the field hospital for treatment, so he led the way towards the starting point.

After arriving at the field hospital, Zhao Shucheng and his colleagues saw tragic scenes that they had never seen in the military area before. There were injuries everywhere, and missing limbs were common. The military doctors were overwhelmed.

Zhao Shucheng only found out after chatting with an old soldier who didn't seem to be seriously injured that just as Zhao Shucheng and his team were looking for the documents, the battle started again.

When Zhao Shucheng finished chatting with the veteran and was about to go check on Wu Mantun, he saw a woman who looked familiar. She was wearing a nurse's uniform.

Zhao Shucheng initially thought it was an acquaintance of his, but after taking a closer look, he confirmed that the other party was not someone he knew in Beijing or northern Shaanxi, but instead looked very much like an unknown female celebrity in the real world.

When the other person turned around, Zhao Shucheng saw clearly, isn't this Miao Miao? No, she should be called He Xiaoping.

He Xiaoping, the heroine of the movie "Youth", is a female art soldier from the countryside. After joining the art troupe, she thought she could escape the fate of being bullied, but in fact her personality was insulted and damaged in a form similar to school violence. In the art troupe, she was often excluded because of her background and unsociable personality, and was even laughed at, spit on, and ravaged for working hard in training. She experienced a huge sense of loneliness and being abandoned.

After the war came, she was transferred to the medical team to support the front line. She actually wanted to escape from the art troupe, so she has been fulfilling her current tasks conscientiously, but after all, she had no professional medical education before, so she could only do what she could.

She actually noticed that Zhao Shucheng was looking at her, but for someone who had worked in an art troupe, such a look was not surprising, and she didn't even care. (End of this chapter)
