stop fighting

10 pm.

The moon finally showed its face slightly from a roll of thin clouds, and a layer of faint clear light quietly sprinkled in the mountains and forests.

Lu Ze lay motionless behind a clump of low bushes on the hillside. 300 meters below him was the entrance to the gate of the oil depot area. You could clearly see the crude towers on the left and right sides built with wooden piles. Two guards stood on the tower, and an iron gate with pulleys stood in the middle.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the watch on his wrist, knocked on the radio and said in a low voice: "A3 reports the location, A3 reports the location."

"Report, A3 is in place." Zheng Guanqi came over with a nervous voice.

"A2 reports location."

"A2 is in place." Fang Lu's voice said.

"How long does it take to detonate?"

"A total of 4 bombs have been placed in the reservoir area. Due to the terrain, they cannot be detonated at the same time. Only the lock ring reaction device can be used. It is estimated that it will take 2 minutes for the complete detonation from the first to the fourth bomb."

"Is A4 in place?"

"A4 is in place." Chen Xin.

Lu Ze pondered for a second: "According to the original plan, A3 and I will enter through the gate. After the defensive tower at the gate falls, Ghost will detonate the grenade near the camp area of ​​the second gate. It is possible to clear the obstacles. Once A4 and I enter the second gate of the camp, A3 will detonate the bomb immediately. At the same time, A2 will evacuate to meet A4. After confirming that all the bombs have exploded, A2 and A2 will directly evacuate to the designated meeting point. Are you clear?"

"receive."

"receive."

"receive."

"Action in 5 minutes."

As if anticipating the ensuing commotion, the moon, which had previously revealed its face from the clouds, quietly disappeared behind the clouds at some point.

There was silence in the four fields. On the tower on the left side of the gate, the guard facing the inner side of the gate of the warehouse yawned, and said to his companion behind him: "The weather is not bad tonight. It will rain."

His companion half-sneered: "Why, are you still looking forward to the rain? Even though it's summer, this dilapidated shed won't keep out the rain, so we won't be the ones who will suffer."

The person who spoke first laughed twice, and his eyes fell back to the inside of the gate of the camp.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he seemed to see a fleeting white shadow, which was particularly obvious in the dark mountains and forests on both sides, but it disappeared in just two seconds.

He rubbed his eyes, suddenly felt flustered for no reason, and touched his companion behind him with his elbow: "Hey, do you feel that tonight... seems to be extra quiet?"

The companion behind him was a little impatient: "Zheng Laosan, what happened to you today?"

Because the surrounding fields were open, the movement on their side was clearly heard by the brothers on the opposite tower, and a somewhat rough voice laughed: "Why, Mr. Zheng, I didn't drink two sips at dinner tonight. I'm addicted to alcohol. ?”

The man named Zheng Laosan's neck turned red: "Don't you fucking talk nonsense there! Who would dare to hide wine here after Boss Wei rectified the entire warehouse area last time?"

Another voice came in: "I'm afraid it's not just Boss Wei's ban, is it? I heard that last time you were caught, you were punished to kneel on the washboard for 3 days when you returned home. Tsk tsk tsk."

The companion behind Zheng Laosan seemed to have thought of something, and said jokingly: "No, I heard from my mother-in-law and aunt that Xiao Yuan got angry last time and almost kicked Zheng Laosan out of the house."

"Hahahaha-"

The hoarse laughter of his companions echoed in the valleys on both sides, but Zheng Laosan didn't seem to care at all, and there was even a little complacency on his face: "You know a ball, Ah Yuan is doing it for my own good, and I've already promised her that I won't do it again. You guys heard those rumors outside, fun, do you understand the fun! How could Ah Yuan be willing to let me wander outside at night."

The companion behind him bumped into him with some complaints, and interrupted his words: "Okay, okay, I understand, let's take the feelings of single people into consideration."

Zheng Laosan rubbed his head and laughed twice, then fell silent.

After a while, he said again as if he couldn't help it: "Lin Wu, don't be so pessimistic. Now we are all following Boss Wei. Although the west and north are not our territory yet, I believe Boss Wei has that ability. Sooner or later, they will be tidied up, and when the brothers gather together and turn the old city upside down, don’t you believe that your mother-in-law and aunt will not be found?”

The expression on Lin Wu's face was a bit gloomy, and he smiled self-deprecatingly: "What's the use of saying this. The disappearance is just to comfort myself. In fact, I don't need Boss Wei to tell me that my auntie is either following 'those people' She went outside, or she died in the bombing. If she is still alive and still here, how could she not be found for so long. I would rather she go away. It is good for her to be alive if a husband and wife are in love of--"

As he was talking, he suddenly noticed that the companion behind him leaned towards him as if he had lost all his muscles and bones, and he pushed back with some dissatisfaction, but he didn't look back: "Zheng Laosan, you are still energetic after talking about it, right?" Right? Unable to stand still?"

There was no movement behind him.

He seemed to have sensed something was wrong, carefully took a step forward and turned his head——

Zheng Laosan turned straight in his direction, and in the dim night, a small black blood hole was broken on his forehead between the brows.

"Warning——!" Lin Wu's sharp voice cut through the darkness.

However it was too late.

The enemies are like invisible ghosts, and they are fish on the board. The bullets are shot from an invisible direction. Lin Wu only feels a cold brow, and the moment he loses consciousness, the last image in his eyes is the empty defense tower opposite. platform.

"There is... an enemy attack..." His last murmur was broken in the wind.

"Target cleared, A4 ready for action. Repeat, target cleared, A4 ready for action."

Two seconds later, along with a dazzling light, an explosion sound came from the direction of the barracks in the hinterland of the warehouse area.

The roar tore through the silence of the night, and a billowing thick smoke rose from the ground, smearing a thick and heavy color on the background of the dark night.

A piercing alarm sounded in the camp, and the sleeping guards were awakened one after another. In the chaos, no one knew what was happening outside. A louder alarm pierced people's eardrums amidst the noise.

Those who reacted faster had already put on their coats and rushed out of the gate of the barracks with their weapons in hand. However, in the thick smoke billowing outside, they hadn't even had time to see the enemy's direction clearly. There were several lifeless corpses on the ground.

"Don't, don't come out!" Someone yelled, the heart-piercing yell was especially scary under the burning fire.

Accompanied by this sound, a distorted huge black shadow was reflected on the rough canvas tent wall of the barracks.It is like a vicious dog from hell, walking slowly step by step, but it seems that every step is stepping on the hearts of everyone.

"A1 has entered the camp."

"A3 has entered the camp."

"A4 evacuated. Repeat, A4 evacuated."

"A4 received. Finished."

Deep in the reservoir area, in front of the gate of the oil depot, the two tower guards undoubtedly heard the explosion and commotion outside. Looking at each other, they both saw some hesitation from each other's faces.

"Outside... Shall we go out and have a look?" The person from the tower on the left spoke first.

"But Boss Wei said... no matter what happens, you can't leave your post..." The person on the right obviously hesitated.

"The commotion outside sounds big. Was that explosion just now?" The person on the left leaned half of his body from the edge of the tower to look in the direction of the camp.

They were located in the depths of the valley, the road ahead had a sharp turn to the west, and the line of sight was blocked by a raised hill.

However, before his companion could respond, a muffled gunshot rang out, his body rolled over the edge of the tower, and fell lifelessly to the nearly ten-meter-high platform.

"Hey! What's the matter with you?" The companion was taken aback by the accident, grabbed the guardrail on the edge of the tower with both hands and looked down.

The only response to him in the darkness was a faint "ho ho" sound from below.

On the hillside 300 meters away to the east, Fang Lujian hid in the dark, sighed somewhat annoyedly, raised the gun again, narrowed his pupils slightly behind the magnifying glass, and aimed at——

The man suddenly felt a chill on his back for no reason, but it was too late: he had just had time to turn his head when the whistling bullets had already embedded in the center of his eyebrows.

"Yes." Fang Lu bit his lips and showed a smile.

She came out of her hiding place, glued the last pack of explosives between the two towers at the main entrance, retreated to a safe place, took out the detonating device from her backpack, tapped the screen with her ten fingers, and set it. After the parameters, press the red button on the side.

When the first wave of explosions is heard in the reservoir area, Lu Ze and Zheng Guanqi will meet from the foothills on both sides respectively.Looking at the flames soaring into the sky behind the mountain bag not far away, Lu Ze glanced around——

If at first he had reservations about Ghost's role in this operation, now he had to admit that at least from the professional point of view of the operation, he couldn't fault it.

The location of the detonation of the grenade was very ingenious. It radiated as much as possible within the limited area of ​​the camp. The grenade itself did not cause too many casualties, and its purpose was to create an atmosphere of chaos and panic. Create conditions.

Right now, their surroundings were almost full of corpses, and under the remaining firelight, the shadows cast on the ground were distorted like ghosts.

"Go to the barracks to see if there are any survivors, and be careful," Lu Ze said.

Zheng Guanqi said "Yes" and walked away.

Lu Ze remained silent for a while, and began to examine the corpses on the ground one by one.

Chen Xin's marksmanship was as clean as ever, almost killing him with one shot.

He turned over a corpse at his feet, revealing the front of this person: this person looked to be in his 30s, and his body shape was no different from that of ordinary people. There was also a tattoo on his right arm, which was a cluster of some The barren thorns.

Lu Ze realized something was wrong the moment he raised his arm: the tattoo was recessed.From a distance, the color causes visual dislocation, but once you get closer, you will find that the tattoo should have been cut off a layer of flesh, and the dark pattern is to cover up the scar.

Along the scar, a thin bluish-black streak spread out from the blood vessels, and finally disappeared into the sleeve at the shoulder.

Lu Ze cut open his clothes with a military thorn, and his pupils shrank as soon as his eyes touched the skin on his chest——

The blood vessels in his chest spread out a fine layer of blue-black like a spider web, and the place where the heart used to be had turned into a fist-sized lump of deep black.
