Chapter 93: The Trail

In the following days, Xu Feng and I commanded the soldiers to build the back-sloping fortifications, while also intensifying the training of soldiers to use the new weapon in their hands - Big Bas. Fortunately, the weapons used by the volunteers were very complicated, which also made them more adaptable to weapons. Moreover, some soldiers had used this kind of rifle seized from the US military before. In addition to the big and big Baskets, the operation was not complicated, so it didn't take much time, most of the soldiers got started quickly. However, some new soldiers still complained when using it. Compared with the big and heavy Baskets, they prefer to use the slender and slim three-eight caps.

But then again, it is difficult for the recruits to use any weapon. Using a semi-automatic rifle like a large eight-piece that does not require bolts will inevitably make them "bangbang..." in a row. This is a very painful thing for the volunteers who are very difficult to supply bullets. If it weren't for worrying about the complexity of the supply of bullets, I would have really been willing to let them use the 38-piece cover.

The tunnel is much safer than a single-man air raid shelter. One is because it can not hit many shells on the backscene surface; the other is because it can use a whole log as support. In addition, there is a thick layer of soil on it, so even if it is directly hit by the shell, it will not have much impact.

However, digging this tunnel is much more difficult than a single-man air-raid shelter. Not only does it have to be dug, but also log wood everywhere. There are forests everywhere in North Korea, so it is not difficult to find wood. The difficult thing is that the soldiers do not have tools for logging. However, on a dark and windy night, Zhao Yongxin took a few soldiers to Seoul and this problem was easily solved.

I am still wondering, even if Zhao Yongxin doesn’t know the half-word Korean, how can he be as windy as the wind and rain? Isn’t this? Not even an hour after he went back to Seoul, he carried a lot of axes and saws back to the soldiers...

With the efforts of the soldiers, in just one day, six tunnels, one person tall and ten meters deep, were completed.

After having these tunnels, I felt a little relieved, because even if there were US bombardment, the soldiers had a place to hide. But I knew this was far from enough, because although the tunnel could prevent enemy shelling, once the situation was unfavorable, the enemy was blocked in such a closed and narrow tunnel, there would be only a dead end. At that time, the US military seemed to have to take a few flamethrowers and spray it into the tunnel, or throw a few grenades into it...

So I quickly asked the soldiers to turn the tunnel into a 180-degree bend and deepen it, and then opened up the tunnels to each other. This not only strengthens the connection between the tunnels and prevents the soldiers inside from fighting each other, but also prevents the soldiers inside from being blocked from getting out.

Since the US military returned to the reconnaissance company last time, it has not made any noise except for sending a few planes to reconnaissance. When they retreated in a hurry, they also needed time to replenish the ammunition. It is obvious that the scouts were just reconnaissance of our defense line, and then gathered their strength to prepare to launch a full-scale attack and caught us off guard.

We took this time to build fortifications and tunnels, and train the soldiers to fight the back-slant surfaces. I also took the time to conduct two practical exercises. They also adjusted their biological clocks that were lying on the day and night.

In order to adapt to the needs of the battlefield, the time for war is decided by the US military now, and they will never be so stupid as to choose to start war at night. I don’t want to see the volunteers again when they are about to rest, they find that the enemy is coming to attack and are forced to pick up their weapons.

So both sides were nervously preparing in the rear, and a rare tranquility appeared on the front line. Sometimes I really hope that this tranquility can continue like this. Although the soldiers still have no food or clothing, this is nothing compared to the blood on the battlefield.

But things in the world cannot be as satisfactory as everyone else’s wishes. This tranquility is as short as the darkness before dawn and is broken on the tenth day.

Before dawn that morning, the soldiers were all sleeping in the tunnel. There was a faint stench in the air, and the snoring sounds were rising or falling one after another. The tunnel was very dark, so it was impossible to tell who was coming out of his nose. In short, all kinds of rhythms and rhythms were all in all.

Since they didn't have to sleep in the tunnel under the cold wind, and the soldiers collected some hay and spread it on the ground, they all slept soundly, but I was the only one who looked at the darkness with my eyes open and couldn't fall asleep. I just woke up from the nightmare, and my mind was full of raging fires spewed out of the enemy tanks and the tragic situation of the soldiers' sacrifice!

In modern times, I have only seen murder, setting fire, and robbery on TV for decades. I have seen all the cruelty, blood and death in these three months, and even personally participated in it and became a killer. What kind of world is this! In this world, life is sometimes just a bullet, a shrapnel, or even a can, a cotton coat...

I lifted the quilt and stood up, touched the wall of the tunnel like a blind man and walked slowly out of the cave. When I got out of the cave, I couldn't help but feel refreshed. The cold and fresh air outside couldn't help but cheer up my energy, and my broad vision also made me feel much more relaxed.

It is unquestionable that the night in North Korea can be said to be very beautiful. Under the stars, there is a rough snow-white, simple and pure. But who would have thought of what kind of hell is buried under this simplicity and purity. But no matter how much I care about, even if the beautiful scenery in front of me is fake, I am willing to intoxicate it. At least at this moment, it can make me feel a little peace and peace.

At this time, three red stars suddenly rose in the distance, and leisurely in the air, slowly drew towards the horizon along the smooth parabola...

"Woo..." A familiar strange roar woke me up. Only then did I realize that the three red stars were signal flares of the US military. I hurriedly retreated and ran into the tunnel.

As soon as we ran into the hole, we heard a burst of roar from outside the hole, and at the same time, there was a wave of vibration under our feet. There was darkness in front of us, our eyes had completely lost their function, and we were filled with cannon sounds, but we didn't care about so much, we just ran wildly inside, and then suddenly something was stirred under our feet and fell to the ground.

After igniting a match, I found that the soldiers were awake, and they all squatted beside the tunnel and covered their ears. From time to time, a small pile of broken soil fell from the top of their heads, and the logs supporting the top of the tunnel were also creaking.
