The harm caused by war to the world is incomparably great and unimaginable. War will turn the good world into a terrible hell, and once war occurs, it will cause environmental pollution and bring irreparable damage to our homeland. In addition to environmental damage and economic losses, war can also bring casualties to soldiers and the loss of countless innocent people. The damage caused by war is only temporary, and the subsequent damage caused by war to people is also very serious. The environment damaged by artillery fire is difficult to recover, the economic losses caused are difficult to make up, and the psychological harm caused to people cannot be erased. Therefore, we must cherish the current peaceful life and oppose war.
As we all know, the greatest war in history is the Second World War. In World War II, almost all the great powers participated, and the scope of the battlefield was also very wide, and the fire burned all over the world.
The damage caused to us by the Second World War is something that all Chinese cannot forget, and in this catastrophe, our country has been very seriously damaged. Post-war reconstruction is also very difficult, and the shadow of the war remains in the hearts of the people. In World War II, the shells left behind also became a major hidden danger. Many of the mines planted by the army during World War II have not been completely cleared, some shells have not exploded, and although so many years have passed, there is a sudden possibility of explosion. We also often see in the news that shells left over from the war years have been found in a vegetable garden or construction site in a certain place, and if they are not careful, they may be dangerous.
After World War II, the world remained a volatile situation. For example, the United States and the Soviet Union fought the Cold War, the United States launched a war against Vietnam, and so on. In the face of the militarily powerful United States, a small country like Vietnam has no chance of winning. The U.S. war against Vietnam was large in scale and lasted for many years. During the years of the Vietnam War, the Vietnamese people experienced a hellish life on earth. At that time, the United States sent hundreds of thousands of troops, and put countless shells into Vietnam, and the Us military firmly controlled Vietnam. In order to break through the U.S. blockade, weapons and equipment were delivered. The Vietnamese army planned to open up other routes, so the idea of Laos was started.
In order to transport equipment safely, the Vietnamese army opened routes in Laos. In this way, the Vietnamese army bypassed the American army. However, the U.S. military was not a vegetarian, and soon discovered the behavior of the Vietnamese army in Laos. After confirming the route of the Vietnamese army to transport supplies, the U.S. army began to bomb the road, and shells poured into Laos. Laos was also very unlucky in this war, and originally had nothing to do with this war, but it was unexpectedly bombed by the US military so fiercely.
The U.S. military used thousands of shells to bomb Laos. Many of these shells did not explode, but were left intact in Laos. After the end of the war, the Laotian army carried out strict demining and turned over the entire minefield, but the U.S. army was very difficult to discharge the artillery shells, so it remained on the land of Laos. It is understood that there are probably more than 8,000 shells in the current land of Laos.
These shells are not only numerous, but also difficult to remove, and have been buried in the ground. The country was already quite poor, and now it is not easy to be plagued by shells. It is no exaggeration to say that the people of Laos live on shells, and some residents even take up shells as materials for building houses. As a result, Laos is arguably one of the most dangerous countries in the world.
