"Shall we follow the route given?" Lu Yan asked.
"Let's go. What's there to be afraid of?"
In the darkness, Jiang Xiaoyu walked in the muddy tunnel. She looked at the white light from the tactical flashlight of her comrade in front of her, and her heart was suddenly filled with inexplicable sadness.
Su Wei walked behind him with his submachine gun. He walked with his head lowered and did not say a word.
Half an hour ago, they found the entrance on Wu Gang's teleportation map. It was the entrance to an underground drainage pipe by the Yangtze River. The pitch-black entrance was about two meters high, and the water in it was ankle-high. It was surrounded by moss, and a cold wind blew out of the pipe.
The team members split into groups of two and entered the drainage pipe in a single arrow formation.
The deeper they went, the deeper the water became. Gradually, it reached the waist of the team members. The cold and darkness attacked them together. Stinky Fish gritted his teeth, raised the G-22 sniper rifle above his head with both hands, and dragged his numb legs forward.
This was a maze-like underground world. The team members circled around according to the map and finally found the exit of the assembly point.
It was a platform on a higher ground. A rusty ladder extended from the bottom of the passage to the platform.
Walking up the dry stairs from the cold pipe, Lu Yan saw a black iron door at the end of the platform. When the team members arrived on the platform, Zhao Ziwu asked everyone to sit down and rest for a while, waiting for Wu Gang to continue giving orders.
The team members were scattered in all corners of the platform, hiding themselves in the darkness.
Zhang Chong sat beside the metal door and took out a piece of compressed biscuit from his pocket. He broke half of it and gave it to Lu Yan. Lu Yan felt a hand touching him in the dark. When he took the compressed biscuit, he was shocked and asked in a low voice,"Where did you get it?"
"I gave it to you during training last time. I forgot to eat it.”Zhang Chong yawned and swallowed the biscuit in one gulp. He lowered his head and twisted his pants. Water droplets dripped down his fingers onto the platform, like a light rain.
A cold wind blew from the pipe. Lu Yan sat beside Zhang Chong. The two of them chewed on compressed biscuits together and heard the sound of a few rats fighting in the corner of the platform.
"Wait, did you hear something?”In the darkness, Lu Yan heard Zhang Chong suddenly speak.
"It's quite terrifying!" Jiang Xiaoyu said as she reached into her pocket and held the copper coin tightly. After the Cui Jie incident, he had the habit of carrying the copper coin with him.
"What's that sound?" Lu Yan listened carefully, but he could still only hear the sound of the wind in the pipe and the sound of rats fighting." There's no movement around?”
"No, it's not from our side. It's from outside the door. Listen carefully.”Zhang Chong lowered his voice." I heard the sound of a bolt being pulled outside the metal door.”
Lu Yan listened carefully and indeed heard a few cold metal clangs coming from outside the door.
Suddenly, a hand pressed down on Lu Yan's shoulder.
"Shh! Don't talk."
Lu Yan and Zhang Chong both recognized Zhao Ziwu's voice. Zhao Ziwu suppressed his voice and said,""There's movement outside the iron door!"
Zhao Ziwu turned on the tactical flashlight and waved his hand. All the members immediately stood up and quietly gathered near the metal door.
Ling Zifeng pointed at the metal door and made an inquiring gesture. Zhao Ziwu immediately responded with a gesture to prepare to attack. The team members immediately attacked in a fan shape. They quickly raised the automatic rifles in their hands and opened the safety. The tactical flashlights on the guns shone with a terrifying white light.
Lu Yan and Zhang Chong stood on either side of the metal door. Zhao Ziwu stretched out two fingers, signaling them to get ready to cover.
"Bang!" Zhao Ziwu kicked open the iron door.
Lu Yan and Liao Yong only felt their eyes flash with white light. They quickly pulled out their guns from both sides of the door at the same time.
"Don't move! Don't move!"
"Put down your guns!"
After the iron door fell, a large cloud of dust flew into the air, and countless white lights flashed on the other side of the door. The white light outside the door shone into the room, and the white light inside the room shone into the room outside. In the white light, Zhao Ziwu could clearly see the members of the beast battalion standing in the opposite room. They were wearing marine camouflage uniforms and had oil paint on their faces. They were also holding rifles, and the tactical flashlights on their guns were shining on their chests.
"Land killing intent! Replying!" Zhao Ziwu shouted in a panic.
"Dragon Snake Rising Land! Is it Platoon Leader Zhao?" " It's us!" The members of the beast battalion shouted from behind the door.”
"F * ck! I've finally met you!" Zhao Ziwu heaved a sigh of relief. He turned around and shouted at Team A,
"Brothers, put down your guns. We're on the same side!”

"Platoon Leader Zhao, Brother Chong, Brother Yan, Brother Yu! "Why are you here?" Ma Mingliang asked.
"Ma Mingliang? Dai Fei? Why are you here?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked.
"After you guys went to the airborne brigade for training, we also went. The order given by the Long team and the Xiang squadron was to gather here after the training.”Ma Mingliang said.
"What is this place?" Zhao Ziwu asked.
"I don't know. I followed the route given to me and walked here from the sewer. I heard the sound and wanted to observe, but it turned out to be you!”Dai Fei replied.
"Why are there only 10 of you?" Jiang Xiaoyu asked.
"Ah Gan and Zhan Dapeng brought a team of people? Either in front or behind!" Ma Mingliang said.
"We also came in through the sewer. Are there any further instructions?”Zhao Ziwu asked.
"No!" Ma Mingliang said," They only said to gather here and wait for orders! He didn't say anything else."
"When we reach the assembly point, let's scout the surroundings first!”Jiang Xiaoyu said.
"That's right. This place is so unfamiliar. Let's first explore the surroundings!”Lu Yan said.
"It's what we should do. Two people in a group, search and move forward!”Zhao Ziwu ordered.
"Yes, sir!" The two teams of warriors began to search.
"I feel like I've been here before!”Su Wei said.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Xiaoyu put away her sniper rifle and walked in front of him with a 95-B short rifle.
"This atmosphere is too familiar. I'll remember it for the rest of my life, but I don't want to remember it!”Su Wei said.
"Why are you so conflicted?" Jiang Xiaoyu said.
"Don't you know how to calculate?" Su Wei said," Let's do the math."
"It's not convenient to start a divination here! But I can feel that the Yin Qi here is very heavy. Many people must have died here!”Jiang Xiaoyu said.
"This is Nanjing, the ancient capital of nine dynasties. Every time there was a change of dynasty, there would definitely be a lot of people who died!”Su Wei said.
The two of them quickly walked to an old wooden door. Suddenly, he stopped. He said into the communicator," Everyone, stop. I know where we are! Gather at my place!"
Zhao Ziwu led his men and stopped 10 meters behind Su Wei and Jiang Xiaoyu." What's wrong?”
" I know where this is." As he was about to turn the door handle, Ling Zifeng suddenly jumped up and stopped him." Since when is it your sniper team's turn to take the lead? Go away!"”With that, he twisted the handle with one hand and flashed out with the pistol in the other. Jiang Xiaoyu and Su Wei quickly turned on the tactical lights on their guns and followed suit.
What appeared in front of the members of the beast battalion was a terrifying Netherworld.
Lu Yan, Zhao Ziwu, Zhang Chong, and the rest followed Ling Zifeng out of the wooden door. They found themselves in a huge tent. The so-called tent was actually just a thick layer of rainproof cloth. The wooden door was built at the southern corner of the tent. Lu Yan stood outside the wooden door and was stunned by the scene in front of him.
On the ground in front of him, there was a huge circle formed by a metal barrier. The sky above the circle was tightly covered by a rainproof cloth, making it impossible to see the sun.
On the ground around the circle, there were thousands of dancing red candles. They were lined up along the railing, emitting a warm yellow light. These lights were like lighthouses, leading the members of the beast battalion to an unknown place.
Inside the circle was a huge pit that had sunk into the ground. The ground outside the deep pit slanted downwards, and the stone path made of pebbles and rain stones looked particularly slippery under the blazing candlelight. Only then did Lu Yan notice that it was drizzling in the dark sky outside the tent. There was a lawn outside the tent. Lu Yan tried his best to look into the distance, but he could not see anything. At five o'clock in the morning, human vision could not compare to night vision goggles.
The sorrowful wind entered the ears of every member of the beast battalion like a cry. Some people couldn't help but shiver. They wondered why their legs were trembling when it was raining. They weren't afraid of the cold when they spent the night in the wilderness. There were also people who felt uncomfortable, as if there was an invisible hand squeezing their hearts. Their eyes inadvertently filled with tears.
The team members silently walked to the front of the deep pit and looked down. It was dark and they could not see anything clearly.
Liao Yong turned on the tactical flashlight on the Type 95 automatic rifle. In an instant, a cold light cut through the cold rainy night in Nanjing.
The moment the torchlight shone, all the members of the beast battalion could not help but let out an "ah" sound.
The deep pit was about two meters deep, and inside it was the yellow soil that we usually see.
On the yellow soil, there were piles of white bones!
103
Following the light of the tactical torchlights of the members of the beast battalion, we saw many white bones. These were all human bones! Look! This pile of bones was exceptionally large and stretched out. The bones were thin and long. It was definitely a sturdy young man. Look! The pile of bones was small and exquisite, and her hip was wide. She must have been a beautiful girl. Look again! The bones on the slope were sparse and scattered, and the teeth in the skull were all missing. It must be an old man; Look! The skeleton at the corner of the pit was surprisingly small, and its limbs had yet to form. It must be a newborn baby…
Countless white bones were scattered in the deep pit, as if white salt had been sprinkled on the ground.
Countless skeletons stared at the sky with their black eye sockets and mouths wide open, as if they were still wailing, screaming, and crying helplessly…
They could also see that half of the skull of this skeleton had been cut off. The ribs of the skeleton were all broken. It must have been crushed to death by something heavy. Some of the bones were covered in sharp marks. They had died from being stabbed by sharp weapons! Some of the bones even had messy teeth marks left on them. It was obvious that they had been bitten to death by animals like wolfdogs…
The cold wind blew into the ears of every member of the beast battalion. They finally understood that it was not the sound of the wind, but the cries of thousands of vengeful souls…
Zhao Ziwu's lips trembled slightly. After a while, he softly spat out a few words,"This place…what is this place? Why…did so many people die?”
"This is a tragedy that all the people of China should remember forever!”Su Wei looked up at the sky and sighed." I've known since I was young that there are 300,000 homeless souls in Nanjing. 300,000 souls... This is the home of those 300,000 souls..."
"This is the memorial hall for the victims of the Nanjing Massacre!”Suddenly, a loud and familiar voice interrupted Su Wei.
With a whoosh, two high-intensity military searchlights suddenly lit up at the other end of the pit.
Jiang Xiaoyu, Su Wei, Zhao Ziwu, and the others raised their heads and looked at the opposite side. They couldn't help but feel excited.
Under the searchlight, six familiar figures stood.
The old brigade commander, Xiao Haiyi, was wearing a marine camouflage uniform. Standing in the middle with his hands behind his back was the current brigade commander, Fang Haixiao. Long Baichuan, Wu Gang, Xiang Yu, and Yang Lang stood on either side.
Behind the six of them, a huge five-starred red flag was hung between two searchlights, fluttering in the wind.
Xiao Haiyi coughed and said,""Attention all personnel! Run and line up in front of me!"
