Chapter 55

  "That... that..." Li Nan wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he stopped again. It seemed like anything he said today was wrong, so he swallowed the words back down.

  "Zhang Qipeng, in your opinion, should we go up or down?" Yuan Shuai asked. Although he was a genius strategist, when it came to the forest, he still thought himself inferior to Zhang Qipeng. This was also one of his most admirable qualities - not being ashamed to ask questions.

  "Let's go down, the road down is more difficult to walk, but it will be safer. I think they chose this place to land because they must have found it along the way." Zhang Qipeng analyzed.

  They walked down for several hundred meters before starting to cross the river, where the water was very deep and icy cold.

  After crossing the shore, everyone's mouth was frozen black and purple. Li Nan put away the night vision device and took out a military knife to clear the way ahead. The thorns were so dense that if they weren't cut with a knife, they could tear through their combat uniforms. The problem was that no one knew whether these thorns were poisonous or not. If they got poisoned, it wouldn't be fun at all. Just then, the sky started raining, making their march even more difficult.

  "Ahh!" Li Nan suddenly shouted loudly. Yuan Shuai immediately turned on his flashlight. Li Nan had fallen into a trap, which was four to five meters deep, with sharpened wooden stakes inserted at the bottom, pointing upwards. Anyone who fell in would definitely die if they landed on the stakes. Fortunately, Li Nan didn't land on the stakes. As he fell, he quickly inserted the military knife into the soil of the pit and used it to support his entire body, with his feet pushing against the wall of the pit. The sharp points were only two centimeters away from his eyes.

  His hands trembled non-stop, and large drops of sweat kept dripping down, his heart almost jumping out of his throat, his face pale, looking like he had just seen a ghost. Everyone who saw this scene took a cold breath, but when they saw Li Nan was okay, they let out a sigh of relief.

  However, the problem immediately arose because no one could get down, and there was nothing nearby to use as assistance. Just as everyone was at a loss for what to do, Li Nan made another unbelievable move. He freed up one hand and used it to support his body weight with just that one hand. The other hand stretched under his belly and, using all his strength, pulled out a wooden stake from the ground.

  The people above saw this scene and were shocked, as if they had seen an alien.

  I think this requires not only extraordinary courage, but also superhuman arm strength and overall physical coordination and balance. This is something that ordinary people cannot achieve, even if the three of them are specially trained special forces.

  After pulling out one, he still felt that his foot couldn't fit, so he continued to pull until he pulled out three wooden stakes. Only then could he free up one foot and stand in the position where the wooden stake had just been pulled out. After standing firmly on one foot, it was much easier to pull out the surrounding wooden stakes. After pulling out the surrounding wooden stakes and being able to stand upright, a rope was thrown down from above and he was pulled up. When he came up, everyone patted him on the back, congratulating him on his narrow escape. They continued on their journey.

  "Li Nan, I only knew you practiced martial arts, but not that your skills were this good. This time, I'm really impressed. I say, what did your ancestors do? Won't be the Dragon Gate Escort Agency, will it?" Yuan Shuai teased.

  "You must have watched too many martial arts films, what with Dragon Gate Inn and the like. I'll just open a black shop instead. My dad said my great-grandfather was in the Boxers. He knew how to make a straw boat cross the river and hang paintings on walls." Li Nan said proudly.

  "What? What's 'laid grass over the river' and 'pasted wall hanging picture'? Wang Yuan saw interest, apparently this is a topic of interest to everyone. Li Nan cut off the thorns in front of him carefully with his knife, he didn't want to fall into the trap again. He continued: "Laying grass over the river means laying a layer of grass on the water surface and running across it. Pasting wall hanging picture is to hang one's body on the wall without using any tools. That's real kung fu."

  "What? Impossible! You're kidding, right?" Wang Yuan saw that Li Nan didn't quite believe him.

  "What should be there, it is said that General Xu Shiyou has the skill of hanging paintings on walls." Yuan Shuai believed Li Nan.

  "What you said seems possible too, General Xu Shiyou seemed to be from Shaolin Temple"

  "Shh, something is following us." Zhang Qipeng suddenly interrupted their conversation. He seemed to have sensed something. As soon as he said this, everyone quickly found a place to hide, quietly opened the safety, and loaded the gun. Zhang Qipeng lay on the ground, pressing his ear tightly against the earth, carefully identifying the direction of the sound. After a while, he whispered, "Between two o'clock and four o'clock, about 100 meters away, there are three to five people approaching." Wang Yuanshi immediately opened the night vision device, aiming the gun at the place Zhang Qipeng mentioned. He searched back and forth (in this weather condition, the visible distance of the night vision device would not exceed thirty meters, so he could only search in that position and wait for the enemy to enter the visible range). The others took turns aiming their guns in different directions. Zhang Qipeng continued to lie on the ground, listening, and after a while, he said, "About 100 meters away from nine o'clock, there are also about three enemies approaching." Then, at six o'clock and twelve o'clock, they heard people approaching them. It seemed that they were surrounded. Everyone opened their night vision devices and carefully searched around.

  Wang Yuanjian could already see the enemy in his direction clearly, and judging from their attire, they were members of the "Devout Army". They wore long robes that covered their entire heads, and held AK-47s in their hands. In order not to let them discern his position, he quietly installed a silencer.

  "Commander Yuan, target locked, shall we fire?" Wang Yuansen asked.

  "Fire at will."

  "Understood." The moment the words fell, a loud metallic collision sound was heard. One of the "Devoted Soldiers" had his head blown off. With a blood-curdling scream, the gunfire from all directions erupted sharply. The flames spewing out of the guns were especially piercing in the dark night. Then another scream and another "Devoted Soldier" had his head blown off. He seemed to have developed a taste for blowing heads now.

  But this time, the remaining few "devout army" seemed to have felt the direction of the bullets. A string of bullets whizzed past them.

  Li Nan kicked Wang Yuanjian's foot.

  "What are you doing?" Wang Yuan hated being disturbed when he was aiming.

  "I've proven one thing." Li Nan continued to disturb him.

  "What's wrong?" He was clearly getting impatient.

  "Our helmets are really bulletproof, damn it, just now a bullet just helped me prove this fact."

  "Are you dead?"

  "You're still talking to me after you died? Are you crazy?"

  At this time, several other directions also discovered the presence of "Devout Army" personnel. They all started firing their guns. Wang Yuan saw that he had knocked down two more. When he realized that there were no longer any gunshots in his direction, he felt that the "Devout Army" in his direction had been completely eliminated by him. So he turned around and crawled together with Li Nan. At this time, the other "Devout Army" personnel seemed to have sensed that they had night vision devices. Because they were being hit one by one, they couldn't even see their opponents' shadows, and they hid and didn't dare to fire their guns. It was raining anyway, and in addition, the forest was dense with shrubs and thorns everywhere. So when they hid, it was really hard to find them.

  "What's going on? Why aren't those guys fighting?" Li Nan asked in puzzlement.

  "They might already know we have night vision goggles, so they don't dare make a move." Wang Yuansen replied.

  "What's going on? What can we do?"

  "Aren't I trying?"

  "Come on, what's your solution? What is it? I don't think it's good."

  "Think about it then."

  "Never mind, I don't think much of myself either."

  "Shut your mouth for sure".

  "My mouth doesn't have that kind of equipment." After finishing speaking, he raised his head to look at the sky that was still raining and cursed, "This damn weather." After finishing speaking, he cautiously picked up his gun and observed.

  "Huh?" He seemed to have thought of something. He raised his head again, looking at the towering tree. He elbowed Wang Yuanshan beside him and said, "Hey, I really think of a way".

  "What about you?" Wang Yuan saw that his method was disdainful.

  "Alright, watch closely." He quickly stood up, kicked the tree trunk on his right with his right foot, and using the reaction force, he hugged the tree on his left and climbed up in a few swift movements. Then, he jumped from that tree to another one. He repeated this process, jumping over several trees before stopping to search for the bandits' location. After jumping over a few more trees, he discovered two "Pious Army" members hiding behind a bush under a tree. A triumphant smile spread across his face. With his feet tightly clamped on the tree trunk, he hung upside down and suddenly released his legs, sliding downwards rapidly. As his hands grabbed onto the bandit's head, his legs suddenly exerted force again, clamping tightly onto the tree trunk. His hands twisted the guy's head with a loud "crack," breaking his neck. The other "Pious Army" member heard his companion's cry and immediately turned around but saw nothing. Li Nan had already flipped into a nearby bush. He found his companion dead without any explanation, which made him tense up emotionally. His mouth was muttering something incoherently, probably praying to Allah. His eyes darted around restlessly, yet he didn't dare leave his hiding spot because once he did, he would be shot again. Li Nan could hear the man's rapid breathing and the "gulping" sound from his throat.

  He quietly pulled out his pistol, loaded the silencer. Aimed at his head, pulled the trigger, and exploded. "Beautiful," he thought to himself, "hum, exploding heads is not Wang Yuan's patent, I can do it too." He was living in his own world again. A distance of only two meters, with a piece of meat tied to the trigger, even a dog could explode its head. He always liked to be complacent and show off. However, taking down two "Devout Army" members in less than a minute was indeed impressive. What he should be proud of wasn't his marksmanship. On Yuan Shuai's side, they were still holding out. Those guys didn't dare to show their faces. Originally, Yuan Shuai wanted to give them a hand grenade. But now they needed a "tongue" to figure out the location of the hostages, so they couldn't eliminate all of them yet. He was making a few sharp branches into shuriken on one side while estimating the distance between them and whether it was possible to approach them quietly. After careful consideration, Li Nan's method was still the best. He also learned from Li Nan, jumping onto a tree like a monkey, jumping between trees. After seeing the location of the three bandits clearly, he held his gun in his left hand and "shuriken" in his right hand, quickly sliding down to the ground, shooting arrows left and right, two bandits fell silently. When the last bandit reacted and wanted to shoot, Yuan Shuai had already disappeared into the night quietly. That bandit was clearly getting furious.

  When one's life is in someone else's hands, either they succumb to humiliation or rise up in resistance. This bandit belonged to the latter. However, no matter who it is, the fear of death is always hysterical. Even if they claim that their desire for death has surpassed their desire for life. But when facing death, the will to survive is still extremely strong. He yelled loudly, a cry on the verge of collapse, his gun wildly sweeping towards Yuan Shuai's disappearing position. However, at this time, Yuan Shuai had already sneaked behind him like a ghost. A front kick kicked away the gun in his hand, followed by a back kick that hit his solar plexus. Then a front pounce, his right elbow locked around his throat, and his left foot locked his hip joint. His left hand held a gun against his temple. The guy still wanted to resist. Yuan Shuai didn't hesitate to shoot him in the right wrist. The guy let out a miserable cry, but was honest. Yuan Shuai dragged him back, and he groaned loudly. Zhang Qikai took out gauze to help him bandage the gunshot wound.

  "Listen, be honest, or I'll shoot you dead!" Li Nan said, pointing the gun at his head. The guy was obviously also afraid of death. Hearing Li Nan's fierce tone, he immediately became much more honest.

  "What the hell is this damn desire for death that surpasses the desire for life, nonsense." Li Nan thought to himself. Still with a painful expression on his face, gritting his teeth. No wonder, having just been shot it's unavoidable.

  "Listen, I ask you something and you answer what I ask, no nonsense. Got it?" Yuan Shuai said.

  Yes yes yes...

  "Where are those Chinese people locked up?"

  "It is in Hatazaki's secret camp."

  "Where is the camp?"

  I don't know.

  "Ah!" Zhang Qipeng pinched his wound hard and let out a loud cry again.

  "I said, I said, walking less than 5 kilometers into the forest and we're already there."

  "How many people are there approximately?"

  "I'm really clear about this, there were probably over a hundred people."

  "Alright, lead us there." Yuan Shuai let him take the lead.

  "Isn't the east just upstream of the river we saw earlier? There must be an ambush." Looking at his eyes, he felt that he was lying. Wang Yuanjian followed them as they walked, but always felt that something was off.

  "Li Nan, Yuan Shuai, Zhang Qipeng, that guy is cheating us." Wang Yuan said what he thought.

  "I know." Yuan Shuai's answer shocked them all.

  "So you're still going with him?"

  "He's trying to lead us into their ambush, but the hostages are definitely in that direction."

  "Why?" Li Nan asked in puzzlement.

  "You just fell into the trap in this direction, if their camp is not in that direction, why would they set traps here? And why would they ambush us here? Also, he's very familiar with this road, and it's all thorn-free, looks like a path, and obviously many people have walked through, who would come to this place and tread out a path if it weren't for the camp?"

  "It seems to make some sense." Li Nan seemed to be affirming Yuan Shuai's analysis, yet also appeared to be muttering to himself.

  "Then aren't we in great danger now?" Wang Yuandian said.

  "To be exact, it's quite dangerous, so we need to be extra careful," said Yuan Shuai.

  The road ahead became wider and flatter. Yuan Shuai knew that their campsite shouldn't be far away. He decisively picked up his gun and fired a shot at the back of the bandit's head. Then he said "Take cover". Everyone immediately hid in different directions.

  "Why kill him? Don't we need him to lead the way?" Li Nan asked in puzzlement.

  "It's no longer necessary, I'm sure the camp is within 500 meters from here."

  "Are you sure?"

  "Definitely and certainly."

  "Why?"

  "Haven't you looked at the map? The entire forest is less than ten kilometers wide and less than fifteen kilometers long. Where would you set up camp?"

  "In the forest"

  "Why won't they"

  "That makes sense."

  "And, have you seen that guy's feet shaking even more violently than before?"

  "What does it represent?"

  "Because he started to get nervous inside."

  "Oh, I see. Because we're about to enter their camp, life and death are at stake right now, so I'm tense, my legs are shaking."

  Clever

  "I admire you, so what should we do now?"

  Sleep

  "How can it be this set again?" Everyone looked at him with incredulous eyes.

  Yuan Shuai just moved his mouth, wanting to say something, Li Nan said ahead of time: "I know what you want to say. We don't have a better way, listen to you. But sleeping in such a big rain is also very challenging."

  "Yuan Shuai, have you thought of a way?" Wang Yuanxi asked anxiously when he heard him say sleep.

  "500 meters ahead is definitely a heavily guarded and heavily armed place, and now that it's daylight, we'll be discovered as soon as we go out. At night we have night vision devices and they don't, so nighttime is advantageous for us. Everyone hide and get some rest first to recharge, and then take action at night."

  "Yuan Shuai, you're great in every way, with courage and strategic thinking, it's just that your old habit of being lazy is not good." Li Nan said half-jokingly.

  "Li Nan, you're great everywhere, you have a sense of justice, your kung fu is good, it's just that your temper is not good." Yuan Shuai retorted.

  "I'd rather die than go in like this, it's so annoying to be sneaking around all the time!" Li Nan was just saying that, but actually his endurance was super strong. However, with his temper, it would be a bit difficult for him to stay hidden for a whole day.

  Hiding under dry leaves on a rainy day. The whole person is like soaking in hot water. Hands are all wrinkled and white from soaking. Just like an old lady's face. The hardest thing to bear is the cold, minus ten degrees Celsius, fully wet, with only one sleeping bag, hiding for a whole day, endurance has reached its limit, just physically it's already at the extreme limit. Endure, endure...

  The sky gradually brightened, the rain had stopped, and sunlight shone into the forest, passing through the dense foliage like a thousand strands of silk, casting a soft glow on the dry leaves.

  "The Hadalaki" camp was indeed less than a mile away from their hiding place. Wang Yuan saw through the sniper scope that he could clearly see the entire layout of the camp.

  "Yuan Shuai, draw a picture of their camp's appearance."

  "Alright, you said." Yuan Shuai took out his sketchbook.

  Approximately 400 meters ahead, the main barracks is a two-story wooden structure with a suspended floor. The building is six meters high and one and a half meters above the ground. The barracks are about 26 meters wide, with a corridor of the same width as the house, and there is a three-meter-wide platform in the middle, with 11 steps. There is a 12.7mm machine gun on both sides of the roof. To the left front of the main barracks, there is a sentry tower seven meters high, with one machine gun and two sentries. In front of the sentry tower, there is a small lake with aquatic plants. In front of the lake, there is a six-meter-long sandbag-style trench with two heavy machine guns. On the right front side, there is also a sentry tower seven meters high, with one machine gun and two sentries, and below the sentry tower, there are two trucks. The sandbag-style trench is six meters long, with two machine guns stopped. On both sides of the main barracks, there are two rows of small houses, about 12 meters wide, with a single-story wooden structure suspended floor. The height is three meters, and one and a half meters above the ground. Behind the main barracks, there are also two sentry towers. The entire layout is in a grid-like structure. The entire barracks are surrounded by iron wire mesh. According to the terrain analysis, it should not have high-voltage electricity. The iron wire mesh is surrounded by rivers on all sides, estimated to be artificially excavated. This is the basic situation.

  "Li Nan, you're going to get yourself killed! Go ahead, 12.7mm machine gun, it'll turn you into a beehive coal!" Zhang Qipeng teased.

  "I was just joking, I didn't mean it." Li Nan explained.

  "Stop arguing, someone is coming out and heading in our direction." Wang Yuan reminded.

  "What? What are they doing? Oh my god, laying landmines, Yuan Shuai, continue drawing, outside the barbed wire, width... wait a minute. Don't know yet, wait until they finish burying."

  "I get it, I don't get it. This place is inaccessible to people, so how did their cars get in?" Li Nan had a thoughtful expression.

  "Yes, how did the car get in? Is there another way?" Zhang Qipeng replied.

  "Hey, Wang Yuanjian, there are other roads, design another escape route. If there's a truck, there must be a highway, otherwise how can we run away with several people who have no strength to bind?"

  Yuan Shuai exaggeratedly looked at Li Nan: "Wow, I didn't expect it, our Comrade Li Nan can also think now, there's progress, not bad, not bad."

  "How can I hear this and not think it's a compliment?" "I'm not thinking, that's even worse than pigs, pigs still think".

  "No, you misunderstood. What I meant is that you used to only know how to charge forward, never knew what it means to retreat, and yet you also learned to take care of the hostages. That's a qualitative progress."

  "Depend on it, if it weren't for those few hostages I wouldn't care about escaping with my life, kill them all and leave without a hitch."

  "Do you still know that we are special forces? Special forces carry out special tasks. Unless absolutely necessary, it is not allowed to confront the enemy head-on. Eliminate them, and there are field armies, as well as planes and artillery."

  "I know this instructor has taught it thousands of times already. Am I not designing an escape route now?"

  "With such a tight defense, how easy is it to rescue them?" Zhang Qipeng said with some worry.

  Yuan Shuai took a deep breath and said, "Yes, this is the most difficult task we've ever undertaken in history. Ten machine guns, three trenches, and possibly even heavy artillery - if we're discovered, our chances of survival are almost zero. So we must observe carefully and come up with a detailed plan for escape and rescue. Let's wait until nightfall before taking action. First, let's thoroughly observe the surroundings, then formulate a battle plan. Okay, Wang Yuanshen, you go to the right side of the barbed wire fence, I'll go to the left side. Zhang Qipeng and Li Nan, you two mark out an escape route around the minefield. After that, gather back here and we'll discuss our plan. Does anyone have any opinions?"

  Nothing

  "Everyone remember, if something unexpected happens during the rescue, I'll take care of Wang Yuanshen at the back, you two first bring the hostages away." Yuan Shuai said.

  "Why isn't it me as the vanguard?" Li Nan asked. He thought he was suitable for the position of vanguard.

  "Your kung fu is good, Zhang Qipeng is familiar with the forest, and your cooperation will increase the success rate of rescuing the hostages. I and Wang Yuan have better marksmanship and hiding techniques than you two, so we can hold off the enemy to the greatest extent and bring troops to support us after the rescue."

  "Okay..."

  "Finally buried, Yuan Shuai drew a map, the minefield is 2 meters wide and 12 meters long, with a fishnet-like layout. In front of the iron gate, 1 meter away. Wang Yuanjian has been scouting continuously."

  "Alright, it's drawn." After finishing the drawing, he turned around and said to everyone: "Everyone take turns observing, others sleep and rest their spirits." Yuan Shuai said in a commanding tone.

  Wang Yuanjian continued to observe them, all three of whom had their eyes closed but couldn't sleep. After experiencing several life-and-death battles, everyone cherished the time they spent together even more. Who knew how many of the four would still be left when the sun rose tomorrow? But sometimes it was especially hard to think about these things. People were like this - no matter how strong you were, deep down there was always a fragile side as thin as ice. And what hurt the most was that precisely at the weakest points, they kept getting hit again and again, unable to let anyone see their pain.

  Every calm face has a turbulent heart, hoping that the sky will never darken. Just like this, lying quietly forever. At least the comrades who share life and death will always be by their side, without worrying that tomorrow he will take away someone beside him. It's pretty good, even if the whole body is swollen from being soaked in rainwater, and the whole body is painful and itchy from being bitten by unknown insects. But they have to force themselves to sleep. Because only by replenishing their spirit can they better face the battle after nightfall, because they are soldiers, completing their mission is their duty.

  It's getting dark, and the battle is about to begin. According to prior arrangements, Wang Yuanshen and Yuan Shuai went to the two sides of the camp to scout, while Li Nan and Zhang Qipeng surrounded a walking route with branches and stones around the minefield, returning to the assembly point to wait for them.

  About an hour later, Yuan Shuai and Wang Yuanyan also finished their reconnaissance and returned to the assembly point.

  "How about you, is there a way for you to escape?" Yuan Shuai asked Wang Yuandian.

  "On the left side of the main house, there is a machine gun, no trenches and no escape route. Behind it, just like in front, there are also ten machine guns, with tire tracks from cars that have driven by. It should be passable." Wang Yuanjian replied.

  "What about you two?" Yuan Shuai asked, looking at them.

  "Between the rocks and branches is a thunder area, both sides can be walked."

  "Alright, there's also a machine gun on the right side, no escape route. That means we have two routes to retreat, front and back. However, it's obviously not possible to bring a group of people with their hands tied behind their backs to escape from the front, so I think the best route should be from the back. When the time comes, we'll rescue the people first, hide them under the eaves, Wang Yuanshan and I will attract their attention, you drive to take them away. No matter what situation arises, rescue the hostages at all costs. Does everyone understand?"

  "I understand."

  "Alright, check equipment."

  After everyone checked their weapons and equipment, General Yuan gave the order to act.

  Within the first 200 meters, everyone moved very quickly, but as they approached the camp, everyone became extremely cautious. If their target was exposed before reaching the camp, not only would the entire mission fail, but there was also a possibility that everyone would be buried in this place. Yuan Shuai walked at the front. (He believed that as a commander, his subordinates loved to hear "follow me" rather than "charge for me"). When approaching the camp within 100 meters, he signaled everyone to crawl forward. Although this method was slower, it allowed them to better conceal themselves. For them, if they could hide well and launch a surprise attack, the entire operation might only take tens of minutes or even just a few minutes. So now, time was ample for them; the real rush would come after entering the camp and starting the rescue, when the outcome of the battle would be decided in mere seconds.

  They had arrived under the barbed wire, and Yuan Shuai carefully took out his dagger. His left hand tightly grasped two strands of barbed wire. His right hand held the dagger, using its serrated edge to grip one strand of wire, slowly cutting it. At this moment, everyone's heart was in their throat. Because if the searchlight were to shine over now, they would have nowhere to hide, completely exposed under the enemy's searchlight.

  Suddenly, Yuan Shuai's hand holding the knife felt a slight tremble. A steel wire snapped, and the clear elasticity of the broken steel wire was transmitted to his hand, which is why he had to hold two steel wires with his left hand. If not, the force of the steel wire snapping open would be too great and would alert the bandits. "This feeling is so good," he thought to himself. Then, using the same method, he snapped the second steel wire. At this time, the searchlight also turned in their direction.

  Yuan Shuai lifted the barbed wire and gestured for everyone to hurry up. Li Nan saw Yuan Shuai's action and rolled on the ground, quickly rolling into the barbed wire fence and taking a defensive position. Next, Wang Yuanshen also slipped in. When it was Zhang Qipeng's turn, the searchlight was only a few meters away from them. After Zhang Qipeng quickly rolled in, he supported the barbed wire fence with his hands. Wang Yuanshen took aim at the searchlight, ready to fire, as the light was almost right in front of them and they seemed to have felt its intense glare. Fortunately, Yuan Shuai had not had time to roll away from the situation, so he kicked off with both feet and slid forward, and Zhang Qipeng pulled him along. Almost at the same moment that the searchlight shone on them, they slipped inside the barbed wire fence.

  If it weren't for Zhang Qipeng's timely pull, Yuan Shuai's foot would have been exposed under the spotlight. This small action seems simple but actually requires strong cooperation between two people. If Yuan Shuai didn't trust his teammate, he wouldn't have lifted one foot and waited for Zhang Qipeng to pull him. And if Zhang Qipeng hadn't had high vigilance and super team spirit, he wouldn't have been waiting to pull Yuan Shuai at the right moment.

  After dodging the searchlight, everyone's heart was still "thumping" with fear, it was too close a call.

  After everyone calmed down a bit, Li Nan and Zhang Qipeng continued to move towards the main building in a "duck step" manner. Wang Yuanjian and Yuan Shuai went crawling into the lake. The two of them had to hide in the water because their target was smaller than that of the four people. It's not easy to be discovered. If they were found by the enemy, they would open fire outside and attract the enemy's attention. Reduce their burden.

  Fortunately, there were water plants in the lake, so their target would not be exposed outside. They lay quietly in the water, praying in their hearts that Li Nan and others could successfully rescue the hostages.

  Li Nan and the two of them were "walking" down to the main building's stairs. Li Nan softly asked Wang Yu Jian through the mic: "Wang Yu Jian, are there enemies in the corridor?"

  Nothing

  "I understand."

  "Li Nan, don't go up the stairs, it's a wooden structure building, going upstairs may make noise and alert the sentry on the roof. First, investigate clearly at the bottom of the building to see which room the hostages are in and make plans." Yuan Shuai said.

  "I understand."

  The floor of the loft is made of wood, so the sound insulation effect is not very good, or it can be said that there is no sound insulation at all. After they crawled under the loft, they could almost hear every word they said. They first went to the stairs below, where there was ** noise. "This obviously isn't a hostage situation," Li Nan thought to himself. They continued walking to the right, along the way with sounds of gambling and loud scolding. It wasn't until they reached the intersection of the left barracks and small house that they heard loud moaning sounds. Someone was also loudly shouting in English.

  "You so-called righteous people, do you feel our feelings? Our homes are gone, our wives and children are gone, we just want to survive in this world. Our government has persecuted us to this extent, why do you still do this? You don't live well in your own country, but come here to deal with us. You invaders, why do you invade us, why? Why... God will not let you off."

  "We are staff members of the Chinese Embassy in Pakistan, and we have come to promote friendship between China and Pakistan. You've arrested us, but our country will not let you off, nor will your government. They will definitely send people to rescue us. They will definitely bring these fascists, these anti-human devils to justice." It seems that the hostages inside still have some backbone. Under the enemy's whip, they are still resisting like dogs.

  "Are they people from our embassy?" Li Nan asked Zhang Qipeng in a low voice.

  "I don't know, let's listen and see."
