An Zhiyuan looked at the delineated minefield, his brow furrowed with concern.

No matter what, this area covered with mines had to be cleared.

“Commander, I request to lead a suicide squad there; I will ensure the mission is completed.”

Shi Yu, the camp’s engineering team leader, requested the order.

“The minefield is set too densely this time. Even if you lead the team, it’s not certain you could complete the mission,” An Zhiyuan was all too aware, though he was not an engineer himself, he was very familiar with the mines along the border. They had encountered an enemy minefield when they first entered this area.

Moreover, many minefields were ultimately cleared by people walking over them.

It’s not as you might imagine, rolling a stone over to trigger a large area of mines—that’s only in the movies. In real life, it’s not like that; many mines only detonate when a certain weight is reached, and now the enemy is becoming more cunning and their techniques more sophisticated, developing mines that are increasingly different step by step.

To put it bluntly, it’s a one-way trip.

When they realized there was a minefield, they knew the enemy definitely had a series of strikes and attack tactics targeted at the high ground. At this time, it’s about them being undersupplied, to deliver a combination punch to catch them off guard.

“Get Hu Biao here!” An Zhiyuan’s heart sank, it was crucial to stabilize the situation and prepare everything immediately.

They could not allow the enemy to disrupt their formation, which was exactly what the enemy wanted in their moments of panic! At such a time! They could not afford any mistakes, covering all bases was necessary.

“Commander!”

Hu Biao had already arrived.

Today, the Transport Team wasn’t his squad.

“You must now immediately organize personnel to deliver supplies to each high ground, send the second supply immediately, and make sure there are provisions for at least a week without a problem. Also, I demand that when you send them up, you must also bring them back, everyone has to return to the camp before daylight,” An Zhiyuan gave the order.

Hu Biao didn’t understand, but that didn’t prevent him from accepting the order.

“Yes!”

Hu Biao hurried out to organize the personnel. Five transport teams quickly departed, each member carrying over 100 pounds, to ensure a week’s supplies as per the commander’s demands.

The Transport Team departed swiftly.

An Zhiyuan turned to the engineering team, “Shi Yu, I don’t want your so-called suicide squad; I require you to organize your personnel to start demining immediately, but there is just one requirement: ensure the safety of the personnel, we can’t exchange lives for lives, we must ensure the safety of our team members.”

Shi Yu stood at attention and departed on the mission.

An Zhiyuan didn’t close his eyes all night, waiting for news from the front.

After dark, the situation became more challenging, but in broad daylight, they were just sitting ducks.

This was the hardest part, not knowing how the enemy managed to plant mines right under their scrutiny.

The booming sound of explosions made An Zhiyuan’s heart pound with fear.

Without needing to ask the observation post, he already knew the sounds were from the direction of the minefield.

An Zhiyuan, along with others, headed out to meet them, and coming towards them, he saw three team members supporting each other walking back towards the camp.

“What happened?”

An Zhiyuan asked.

An engineering team member wiped away tears, “Our squad leader isn’t coming back!”

Five had gone, three returned—the fate of the remaining ones didn’t need to be stated.

An Zhiyuan and others provided cover and moved forward, only to see from a distance that half of Shi Yu’s body had been blown off, the remaining part of his body at the center of the minefield. They had managed to clear a path at the cost of two lives, but sadly he couldn’t make it across.

Places marked with red flags indicated mines, but it was too late for demining.

Another team member hadn’t yet died, lying there with both legs blown off, bloody and mangled.
