It wasn't clear how much time had passed when Li Bin slowly came to inside the car.

  Lying on the driver's seat, Li Bin only felt a severe headache and sharp pains all over his body. He opened his eyes to find multiple wounds on his body, with bloodstains all over him.

  The lights inside the car had all gone out, and a faint mist of smoke filled the cramped interior. Li Bin tried to crawl up to take a look at the situation inside the car, but he felt another wave of dizziness, his vision went black, and he fell back onto the driver's seat, losing consciousness once again.

  He fell into a coma again for an unknown period of time. Li Bin was awakened by the cold, and only then did he realize that the temperature inside the car was very low.

  "How strange, why is it so cold? It's September now, and in Guangxi it's still a hot season. Is it the air conditioner? The car's air conditioner has been turned off for a long time!" Li Bin muttered to himself.

  The interior was pitch black, and Li Bin couldn't see his fingers when he stretched out his hand. He struggled to sit up and looked at the periscope, only to find that the night vision device had automatically kicked in, casting everything outside in a dim green hue.

  It's already dark! No wonder! Li Bin thought to himself. But after a while, he changed his mind and thought: Wait a minute, even if it is dark, Nanning shouldn't be that cold, right?

  Thinking of this, he observed the outside through the periscope again, only to find that they were in a forest, and everything outside proved that this was not a battlefield that had just been baptized by war!

  The car radio was destroyed, and Li Bin hastily pulled out a handheld radio, calling out to the radio several times, but got no response. The only answer he got was a burst of "hissing" noise.

  He grabbed the handheld Beidou satellite positioning device beside him, but found that the satellite positioning device had no signal at all!

  "Heavens!" Li Bin exclaimed, "Where am I after all?"

  He strained to lift his body and opened the hatch, but a blast of cold air hit him in the face, making him shiver involuntarily.

  "It's so cold!" Li Bin shivered all over his body.

  A chill wind howled into the cabin, and the thin combat suit on his body was no match for this cold air. Wasn't this the yin wind of the underworld? Impossible! If he had really died, why would he still feel pain?

  Could it be that I've stumbled upon the legendary time-space tunnel? If I really did enter the time-space tunnel, how would I get back? At this moment, Li Bin, in the cold wind, only felt a deep sense of loneliness and helplessness.

  But whether it's cold or not is unimportant, what matters most is that there are still a few people in the car. Unable to see anything, he can only shout loudly: "Old Liu, Little Lin, are you guys still here?"

  No one answered him; all he could hear was the howling wind outside.

  Taking advantage of the weak moonlight shining into the car compartment from the open sunroof, Li Bin felt for his flashlight and turned it on, casting a beam of bright light inside the car.

  Li Bin crawled from the driver's compartment to the turret, but was stunned by what he saw: Commander Liu Ping lay in a pool of congealed blood, his body riddled with bullet holes. Gunner Lin Chao-hui had also sacrificed himself at his post, his hand still tightly gripping the firing handle. It seemed that the tank had taken heavy fire; the partition between the turret and the ammunition compartment in the tail of the turret had been blown open, and several shells lay on the floor.

  Li Bin shone his flashlight into the turret and only then discovered that the armor inside the turret had been severely peeled off, apparently due to a high-powered armor-piercing projectile attack. The armor-piercing projectile may not have penetrated their tank, but it caused serious damage to the tank, resulting in the death of the tank commander and gunner.

  For himself who had already left the battlefield and arrived at a place he had never known before, Li Bin could only think of one way to explain: Could it be that his tank was hit and entered a space-time tunnel, arriving in another space?

  But here is actually what place, Li Bin was at a loss.

  Now, the most important thing is to recover a bit first and then check the damage of the tank to see if this once powerful tank can still be used.

  Thinking of this, Li Bin crawled back into the driver's cabin, lay down on the chair and closed his eyes. Before he knew it, he fell asleep again.

  When a ray of sunlight shone through the car window and onto Li Bin's face, he woke up. This was a restorative sleep, and he had slept very well that night. When he woke up, his whole body felt less painful.

  The sky was already bright, and Li Bin crawled out of the tank, greedily taking in the fresh air in the forest. He felt a bit thirsty, so he twisted open his canteen and took a drink. Then, he carefully observed the terrain around him. Judging from the fallen leaves and coniferous trees, this place should be at high latitude. From the position of the sun, it was still in the Northern Hemisphere. However, where exactly he was now, whether inside or outside his own country, even he himself did not know.

  Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind: Oh no! Will I be sent to Japan through the time-space tunnel?!

  "Damn it! It's best if I've arrived in Japan, I'll kill a few of those bastards!" Li Bin cursed silently to himself. Judging from the temperature and surroundings, it was still very likely that he had arrived on the northern part of Japan's main island or Hokkaido, but there was also a possibility that he was in Northeast China or Europe, or even North America.

  Last night, due to excessive fatigue, he didn't even check his injuries in the dark. Now that it's daylight and his strength has recovered a bit, Li Bin looked at his injuries and found that they were all just minor scratches on the surface of his skin, with blood clots forming where there were open wounds, which hadn't hindered his movements at all. However, his head still hurt a little, probably due to the intense shock from being hit by the tank shell.

  After a while, he crawled into the car, moved his comrade's body out of the tank and placed it in the woods. He then found two small national flags on the vehicle and covered their faces with them. After simply handling his comrade's body, he crawled back into the car to inspect the tank.

  The Type 05 tank was severely damaged by the powerful armor-piercing shell, the engine was damaged and could not be driven, three blocks of reactive armor were blown off, two dents and a deeper pit were left on the turret, it seemed to have been hit by three shells.

  Apart from the internal armor peeling off and engine damage, the onboard fire control computer was also damaged, and the laser rangefinder was severely damaged and is estimated to be beyond repair. However, the cannon, automatic loader, infrared night vision device, and low-light night vision device were still intact.

  Li Bin searched the vehicle for half a day and found, in addition to his own 95-style short-barreled assault rifle, a 92-style handgun and another 95-style short-barreled assault rifle. The handgun was left by Liu Ping, the driver, and the other short-barreled assault rifle was left by Lin Chaohui. There were also nine 9mm pistol bullets and four 5.8mm rifle cartridges.

  There were still fifteen 140mm armor-piercing shells and eight high-explosive shells inside the vehicle, but the bullets for the coaxial machine gun and the bow machine gun were still very sufficient, with more than two thousand rounds of machine gun ammunition, and the anti-aircraft machine gun had more than four hundred 12.7mm rounds.

  Li Bin also found some small items: three handheld radios, a compass, a bulletproof vest, a triangular bayonet, a military dagger, a sewing kit and a first-aid kit.

  After tidying up, Li Bin suddenly felt his stomach start to protest with growls. It was only then that he realized he had no idea how many hours had passed, and not a single grain of rice had entered his belly.

  There is also a box of canned beef, half a box of canned pork, a large box of compressed biscuits and several bottles of mineral water in the car.

  He opened a can of beef and wolfed it down with water from the canteen. After finishing the can, Li Bin felt his body full of energy and the wounds on his body no longer hurt.

  After finishing "breakfast", Li Bin looked at the bodies of his comrades lying in the woods, and he thought to himself: It's not a solution to always be like this. It seems that we need to find someone to come over and help us bury our comrades' bodies first.

  But this idea only lasted for a few seconds, and he thought again: No, it's better to understand where I am first! What if I really went to Japan, then I would bury the bodies of my comrades first, and then go out to kill a few devils before preparing to die for my country.

  The massive and heavy tank is now immobile, it seems that if I want to get out, I can only take a small path from the forest. Currently, it appears that no one has been here before, at least, I've been here for over ten hours and still haven't seen a single person.

  Outside, a dense and winding forest stretches out as far as the eye can see, with no end in sight. I have no idea how far it is to walk out of here or when I'll finally reach the edge. Although I have a compass, I don't even know where I am, so which direction should I head in?

  Suddenly he had an idea: Right! Head south! This is the north, as long as you head south, you'll definitely run into people!

  But, not knowing how many days to walk, the bodies of comrades were left here, would they be ravaged by wild beasts? Thinking of this, Li Bin's foot that was about to step forward stopped. He silently walked to the back of the car, opened the toolbox, took out a shovel and a pickaxe, and then he started digging a hole on the ground.

  Nor did he know how long he had worked, Li Bin finally dug two pits with great difficulty. He carefully moved the bodies of his comrades into the pit. With tears in his eyes, he silently filled the soil, filling the soil on one side and thinking about the days when he was with his comrades. The more he thought, the more he hated the so-called US-Japan alliance.

  After half a day's effort, Li Bin finally buried the bodies of his comrades. He had originally wanted to find two small wooden plaques and engrave "Revolutionary Martyr Liu Ping's Tomb" and "Revolutionary Martyr Lin Chaohui's Tomb" on them, but he couldn't find any wooden plaques in the vehicle. The wood used for the ammunition box was too poor and could not be used as a plaque.

  After doing all this, Li Bin knelt down and kowtowed three times to the two small earth mounds: "Old Liu, Little Lin, wait for me! When I come back, I will definitely find a good tombstone for you!"

  After finishing speaking, he stood up and set out on his journey with a compass, a Type 92 handgun, a short-barreled assault rifle, several cans of food and some water.
