Chapter 436: Exposure

A massive wasteland, full of wind-blown sand and gravel, huge craters everywhere, and no life in the middle of the intertwined barbed wire.

A helicopter whistled and landed in an open field in the middle of the barbed wire, the propeller set off a strong wind, and for a while the wind and sand continued to dance wildly.

"Go down!" a masked soldier dropped a man next to him from the plane, and five men of the same age dropped from the plane one after another, and after dropping them, the helicopter flew away with a whizze, and a second plane would come after a while.

Helicopters fly around, doing the repetitive thing all the time, which is to transport people here from afar.

The number of people who were sent here slowly reached thirty, and they took off their hoods themselves, looking at the desert around them with obvious puzzled expressions. All 30 of them were the people who led the march in Aleppo today, as well as some of the top church leaders, and they were all quietly taken here from their homes.

"Where am I?" said an old man, confused, after taking off his hood.

"Welcome to Deir ez-Zor!" said a young man as he got off the last plane, as everyone wondered.

"Why are you arresting me? And where is this? I'm going to tell my believers that they can overthrow you. The old man said angrily, slapping the sand.

This young man is Du Feng himself, but at this time he wrapped his head in a turban, and he couldn't tell his nationality at all.

"The purpose of inviting you here is just to show you around this place, our beautiful Deir ez-Zor, which is also the purgatory that the extremist group threatens to bury the Salem soldiers. ”

A middle-aged man stepped forward, grabbed Du Feng's collar and questioned, "This is a war zone?"

Du Feng said with some indifference: "It was the former war zone, twenty-four hours ago, this place was liberated, and now this is the liberated area." ”

"I don't care what you brought me here for, or what you're going to talk to me about, I tell you, if you know who I am, you will never dare to do this to me, I will go back now, you wait for my revenge. ”

There was a hint of cruelty in Du Feng's eyes, there were four main leaders in the parade, and one of them was this man.

Du Feng let the man grab his collar, and said indifferently: "I just invited everyone to come just to chat, as for chatting if you want to leave, please feel free, we are free between us, if you want to go back, please go to! From here, go southeast, where is Deir ez-Zor City!"

"Who wants to talk to you savage?" the man dropped Du Feng's collar and turned around and walked into the darkness in the distance.

His movement led to a lot of eager people, and people scrambled towards the surrounding barbed wire, cursing and cursing as they went.

"You remember for me!" After the man pointed at Du Feng and said a word viciously, he stepped over the barbed wire fence directly, and he walked towards the darkness in the distance, as long as he left the circle surrounded by the barbed wire, it was good.

But he was wrong, he walked and suddenly felt a steel thing under his feet, and the next step, he only heard a loud noise.

"Boom!" In the darkness, the sudden explosion light made people's eyes a little uncomfortable.

"Ah!" After the explosion, silence returned, and only a man was heard wailing desperately in the darkness, and the people standing by the barbed wire stopped, and they looked into the darkness, trying to see what was going on with the first crab eater.

Du Feng's leisurely voice came again: "All around are minefields arranged by extremist organizations, but don't be afraid, they are not densely arranged, this area is conservatively estimated to be 500,000, which is ten times less than Cambodia's five million." ”

"500,000?" How can these twenty-nine people not know the concept behind this number, that is, in the mask of a few square kilometers, it is dozens of flats, and it is possible to win the lottery if you walk a few meters by yourself, who dares to try such an exciting adventure?

Du Feng said with a smile: "Why, didn't you all want to leave just now? Leaving this iron fence, I can't guarantee everything behind you, of course, maybe you will be lucky enough to reach Deir Ezzor." ”

"What do you want? Someone will see us as soon as it's dawn. Angry voices came from among the twenty-nine.

Du Feng gave a casual hand gesture and said, "It's okay, I believe you can survive until that time." ”

After saying that, Du Feng waved his hand to the sky, and a helicopter landed, and under the cover of several gun-wielding soldiers, Du Feng boarded the plane like this.

Seeing the plane start, these twenty-nine people were left here by Du Feng like this.

Du Feng does not intend to come up and negotiate with them, and there is no need to negotiate at all, the people who can be mobilized in Aleppo have already negotiated on the spot, and these people who insist on resisting themselves have no interest in negotiating peace at all, let them blow the wind here, and appreciate the Deir ez-Zor Liberated Area is better than anything else, maybe they will thank themselves.

The desert was very cold at night, and these twenty-nine men were gathered in a circle of barbed wire and shivered, their expectant and hopeful eyes becoming more and more lifeless as the night grew thicker and the wind became more and more desolate.

Not far from them, the wailing of the man who had fled first had stopped, and no one knew whether he was dead or asleep, no one cared about it, and no one wanted to know about it.

One night people huddled together like frightened sheep, and of course when the first light rose from the earth, people felt a sense of excitement as if they were in a different world, and many of them were already in tears.

But what about the dawn, after losing the cover of the night, this desolate land really shows its true face.

Sand, broken tanks, messy barbed wire, even weapon parts, shell casings, and corpses!

At noon, the earth was already unbearably hot, and the sand under the feet was like a hot iron plate, passing through the soles of the shoes to be baked, and the heat wave burned directly on the soles of everyone's feet.

"Thirsty!"

Exposed to the brutal sunlight, the water in people's bodies was evaporated in large quantities, and people shielded themselves from the sun with their clothing, and they leaned against barbed wire, trying to find even a little shade.

Day and night alternate, and no one around them would pass by, let alone care about these people. Gradually, the temperature of the earth decreased again, the huge temperature difference between day and night, a trace of coolness gradually turned into gusts of cold wind, and people who had not eaten for a day and a night, or even drank water, were exposed to the sky.

Imprisonment is madness, hunger is panic, and darkness is something that can radicalize these two feelings into despair.

A man said in frustration as he looked at his phone, which had only five percent battery left.

He frantically tried to get through the phone this day, contacting anyone who could save him, but he failed, the phone was not blocked, but the sound he heard after connecting the phone was the wind in the wilderness around him, which made his nerves almost collapse.

"No, I can't die here, I'm leaving, I'm leaving. He shouted frantically, and he rolled over and escaped from the barbed wire.
