Forbidden City of Heze + Dalufei

In the early hours of the morning, a harsh siren sounded suddenly, penetrating the entire training ground.Junliu woke up suddenly and sat up straight. The air in the tent was extremely hot and filthy. It stretched in, and then a soldier's ferocious face poked in.

"Get up! Get up! Don't sleep! Gather outside!!" He roared loudly.

"Don't be afraid. They should take us to the port." Zi Luo sensed Junliu's ecstasy, and held his cold hand tightly.

The people around were in a mess, putting on clothes and packing their luggage.Ma Gu stretched his waist, and got up one after another with a slap in the face, lazily and not nervous at all.The three of them walked out of the tent in a single file among the disheveled crowd.

A gust of fresh air blowing in front of them woke them up a lot. The sky had just turned white, and the temperature hadn't picked up yet. It was the most comfortable time of the day.Although no one dared to speak loudly or walk around at will, the training ground was still full of troops and horses. After a short period of confusion, the soldiers who had already been in place began to issue orders and direct the crowd to move in a specific direction.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Junliu found Duoqi with an anxious face outside the nearby women's tent, and brought her back to the team. The girl had two dark circles under her eyes, and complained that she didn't sleep much at night, fearing that someone would take away her food .

"The number of soldiers has increased a lot." Junliu walked to Qi Luo and said in a low voice, his face still tense, "There are troops all around, probably thousands of people, if only civilians Order, what about it?"

Zi Luo glanced around a few times, and his heart was a little suspended, but he had to answer briefly, "Let's not get separated, and play by ear."

As the refugee team moved, the soldiers gradually surrounded them, and even the adult wall enclosed everyone in the encirclement.They left the training ground under the escort of the troops, entered the border security area along the wide road, and walked to the Moring Port. The two sides of the road were full of soldiers who were facing the enemy one after another, and all of them were armed with rifles. Hold it in your hand and occasionally communicate with each other using a walkie-talkie.After walking for about 10 minutes, Junliu saw the high wall and iron gate of the first checkpoint at the end of the road, as well as the two machine gun posts in front of the gate. This team of more than 4 people was squeezed into the buffer zone. Waiting for the next instruction.

According to the information obtained by Qi Luo, there are three checkpoints at Moring Port, with a buffer zone of about 500 meters between each other. Entering a new world of freedom.

It's the last mile.Looking at the closed iron gate, Junliu's exhausted heart was filled with hope again.

The buffer zone is a large square with a concrete floor. On the east side of it is a tall flag stand with the dark purple national flag of Dalufi fluttering on it. The flag stand is full of guarded soldiers as if under martial law.

Alpha was sitting in a lounge behind the table, facing the Chief of Staff of Bodun Base. While drinking coffee, he leisurely admired the scene in front of him through the window. The black crowd seemed to be driven by police dogs. The livestock kept gathering at his feet, entered this invisible net, and were still unaware of what was about to happen.

After all the refugees stood up in a line and waited with their sluggish dirty faces up, he stood up and straightened his military uniform, strode out through the small door next to him, and boarded the flag stand.

Alpha walked up to the standing microphone with a happy face, stood upright, and greeted the dense crowd below with a smile, "Hi everyone, how did you sleep last night?"

The moment he saw him appear, Junliu and Ma Gudu had no reaction, but Qi Luo suddenly took a step back. He couldn't believe his eyes, and blurted out two words: "It's over!"

"What's the matter?" Junliu was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "Do you know this person?"

"He..." Afraid to meet his eyes, Qi Luo lowered his head and took a deep breath, but his face was livid as if lacking oxygen, "He is Lei Shu's adjutant."

Junliu felt as if he had been slapped in the face, and his heart became flustered, "Could it be that... this is really a trap?"

"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know what I'm here for." Alpha's voice came unhurriedly, echoing loudly in the square, he squinted his eyes and scanned the crowd below repeatedly, as if he could peel off all disguises There is nothing to hide, "I believe that most of you are innocent and good citizens, you don't have to worry, the government will abide by the promise to let you go abroad, and in the name of the noble war treaty, the army will do its best Work hard to protect your rights."

"It's a pity that some dirty sewer rats got mixed in among you. According to the information we have, many guys who are not qualified to leave the country have forged their refugee identities through the illegal means of the black market, and they even tried to smuggle under our noses. Wouldn’t it be a disgrace to the border guards if such criminals were allowed to go unpunished and escape justice?”

"So before opening the port, we have to re-examine your identities." Alpha smiled confidently, "Your identity information has been recorded during the refugee registration, and now we have to review fingerprints and iris scans. Those who have no problems can pass the checkpoint."

After finishing speaking, he sat down on a sofa chair that his entourage moved onto the stage, took a cup of hot coffee, and said to the officers and soldiers in the audience, "You guys have worked hard today, take your time, how long will it take me?" I will accompany you all."

Suddenly there was a commotion among the refugees, and many people whispered in private, looking nervous.But Qi Luo and Junliu stood stiffly, unable to move for a long time, as if one foot had stepped into the gate of hell.Without even thinking about it, they knew that this hurdle would be impossible to pass.

Qi Luo glanced back anxiously, and sure enough, just as Junliu expected, the road behind him had been blocked at some point, the barbed wire fence had been pulled up long ago, and the soldiers were guarding three layers inside and outside, and there was no danger at all. There is no way out.

"Dead." Magu grabbed a handful of hair and said angrily, "I'm really not reconciled, I didn't expect to be planted here!"

Junliu clenched his fists and said nothing.The desperation is already clear to him, and he doesn't need to set aside time for himself to deal with his emotions. Thanks to the blessings he has suffered all this time, he quickly controlled his wavering will, and he didn't even show the slightest change in his expression. In a calm tone, he said calmly to the girl beside him, "Duoqi, I'm hungry, give me the bread."

Hearing these words, Qi Luo looked at Junliu suddenly, and found that his face was as cold as ice, but it was inexplicably reassuring.

At this time, he admired this young man from the bottom of his heart. Facing the real critical moment, Junliu seemed to put on a piece of armor that no one could violate.

Junliu took the bag of bread that was about to be kneaded by Duo Qi, touched her head and said softly, "Sister, let's part here."

"What?" Duoqi almost cried out, but fortunately, Qi Luo blocked her mouth in time. She looked at Junliu's face in horror, her eyes blurred immediately, and she asked in a crying voice, "Why?"

Junliu bent down and patiently whispered in her ear, "You should have noticed it a long time ago. In fact, we are all wanted criminals. We were unlucky to hit the gunpoint today. I can't implicate you. You should be able to get by, so please You go alone."

"I'm not leaving, didn't I agree to take mine with me? We still have to live together! I don't care if I can go out, I just care about being with you, let me follow you!" She grabbed Junliu's hand Sleeves, while speaking, tears fell straight down.

"We don't have the extra energy to care about your life," Junliu said indifferently, "you will die."

Duoqi seemed to be frightened by his words, and looked at him with wide eyes in surprise.Her heart sank quickly, and the corners of her mouth were forced upwards, begging that this was just an exaggerated joke, but no matter how desperately she searched for those familiar signals, she found that there was no trace of warmth in Junliu's eyes.

Duo Qi hesitated and took two steps back, as if she was fighting fiercely in her heart, she couldn't bear the other party's cold eyes, and almost ran away in despair.But when he saw Junliu turning his head away and ignoring her, the pain in his heart suddenly became unbearable, and she rushed back suddenly, crying loudly, "Brother! Please, I won't It's holding you back!"

Junliu hugged her, sighed helplessly, but didn't drive her away again.

"Forget it, just keep her." Magu looked at Duoqi, teasing heartlessly: "At least this girl can help you block a few bullets."

Seeing Junliu glaring at him fiercely, Ma Gu suddenly got a little angry, "What? You have to be a good person yourself, and don't allow others to be bad people? Do you know how many years I haven't seen a woman? If not I'm afraid of you, I've done this girl a long time ago."

"Death is imminent, and you still have the mind to quarrel?" Zi Luo couldn't help but say something.

"It's because I'm about to die that I want to complain a few words. I paid you my life. What's the matter?" Magu became even more aggressive, approaching Qi Luo's eyes and provoking: "Hey, tell me, if I jump now Come out to expose you, do I have a chance to redeem myself? Seriously, if you don’t want to implicate her, can you also not implicate me?”

"Keep your voice down!" Zi Luo grabbed his collar and forced him to stop there, "Don't worry, you will die anyway, we won't leave you behind."

Magu still wanted to make trouble, but was suddenly interrupted by a scream not far away.The turmoil that erupted in front of the team attracted everyone's attention. They all looked up and saw a man was kicked and punched by the soldiers, and then dragged out of the crowd with his arms crossed, until he knelt under the flag stand .With two guns pointed at his head, he yelled hysterically: "It's not me! You've got the wrong person! It's not me!! I'm innocent!"

"Chief," one of the soldiers holding a gun shouted to Alpha with an expression on his face asking for credit: "This person is a suspect on our wanted list, No. 103. He committed the crime of theft in the mezzanine area two years ago, and later escaped." to the central area."

"Keep his face up." Alpha flipped through the list of wanted criminals handed over by his entourage, compared the photos on it, and thought about it solemnly, "Theft, plus smuggling, should be a capital crime."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly stood up and took two steps forward, stepped on the edge of the flag stand, pulled out the gun on his belt, undid the safety and loaded it in one go, aimed firmly at the head of the person below, and buckled it. trigger.

The sound of the explosion made everyone cry out in shock. The blood and brains of the man who was headshot accurately spurted to the ground, and his body fell heavily on the ground, motionless.

Amidst the fuss and wailing of the refugees, Alpha smelled the gunpowder from the muzzle of the gun, put the gun back into his waist as if nothing had happened, and sat back firmly on the chair.These are insignificant bits and pieces, with no entertainment value at all. What he wants to catch is Shangguan Junliu, a big fish. Although there is no accurate information to indicate that he is among these refugees, Alpha is confident that he will open the border. The action has a fatal attraction to Junliu, and this is the only way for him to escape.He has enough perseverance to pull him out of the crowd. If there is no one in this batch, then he will screen the next batch. Anyway, only this port is open.

"The progress is too slow, when will this be done?" He called Yu Tuo, the chief of staff who was standing beside him, "Let the soldiers who are watching the excitement below move, and have a list of wanted criminals in hand, and go to the crowd to check. Suspicious guys, especially young men, will be picked out and checked."

After witnessing the suspect's tragic death, Magu came back to his senses, and inadvertently met Qi Luo's eyes. In order to hide his guilty conscience, he pushed the other side hard, "Why are you standing there? Waiting to die? Take out the things ,hurry up!"

"Duoqi, help us look down." After Junliu finished speaking, he immediately grabbed the bread out of the paper bag and handed it to Ziluo, who carefully opened a gap in the bread, exposing the black powder core inside .

He used his body to block the sight of others, aimed the gap at the mouth of the empty wine bottle in Magu's hand, carefully poured the powder into the bottle, and after it was clean, he began to break the second one.

Before coming to the base, they studied all the remaining weapons in the backpack, spent more than an hour dismantling the grenades and bullets, accumulated a pile of black powder, and hid them separately in the bread, avoiding the search.

While they were busy making weapons, the soldiers who had been standing around the square to maintain order suddenly moved. They rushed into the crowd, roughly grabbed the refugees and questioned them one by one. Men, women, old and children began to scream one after another. , Some people were forcibly dragged out for torture.The separated family members cried and stopped the soldiers, but were beaten mercilessly.People began to break away from the queue and try to escape, but were forcibly blocked by soldiers in the encirclement circle. The scene quickly became chaotic.

They were rushed by the panicked crowd and fell into the vortex of commotion, so they had to speed up.After the six or seven loaves were all emptied, the small wine bottle in Magu's hand was already filled with more than half of gunpowder. At this moment, Duoqi began to tug at the corner of Junliu's clothes desperately, reminding them that a soldier was rushing towards him. This side is getting closer and closer.Magu hurriedly twisted a prepared cotton lead from his pocket, put it into the bottle, and left a piece outside, then he randomly grabbed a piece of bread, plugged the bottle tightly, and immediately put the bottle I hid it in my arms.

"There is only one bomb, don't waste it, and use it again at critical moments." Zi Luo said and gave Ma Gu the lighter he was carrying on his body.

"And then?" Ma Gu looked a little anxious, he glanced at the soldiers not far away, turned his eyes to Junliu, and urged: "Tell me quickly that you have a plan."

Junliu waved calmly, and asked the three of them to gather around, and started plotting in a low voice.
