Chapter 9: The Wolf's Lair
Zheng Dong ran towards Mu Yun'er at full speed, the spear flew head-on, but his footsteps did not stop at all, and he didn't even dodge. The spear flew past his cheek, and there were a few terrible screams, and a white-haired hungry wolf was stabbed in half, struggled a few times, and kicked his leg straight before swallowing.
Rushed into the house, slammed the iron door shut, and then there was the sound of tooth-aching claws scratching the door, and looking out through the shooting hole, there were wolves scattered everywhere outside the door, each head was nearly one meter tall and nearly two meters long. A hungry wolf smelled the scent of a man, put his paws on the shooting hole, his yellow-brown eyes were breathtaking, his teeth were bared and his saliva was flowing, and his face was filled with a fishy smell.
Leaving the shooting hole, the bunker was pitch black and smelled of mold. After this strenuous exercise just now, both of them stood in place, gasping for breath, and the sound of their heartbeats gradually calmed down.
"Yun'er?"
"I'm here."
Following the sound of touching, Zheng Dong held her hand again, and he decided to play a joke with her and gently stroked her face with his other hand.
"What are you doing?" Mu Yun'er's shy voice came from the darkness, and Zheng Dong asked knowingly, "What's wrong?" ”
"You touch my face!" Mu Yun'er said angrily, his hand that stopped on her face was a little hot.
"No, I didn't touch you?" The hand deliberately rubbed lightly against her face.
Silent------
"Hell!" Mu Yun'er was like a kitten that had been stepped on by its tail, jumping and jumping into Zheng Dong's arms.
Smug, Zheng Dong held back a wicked smile and deliberately asked, "Where is it, where is it?"
When he couldn't help it, when he laughed, there was a sour feeling in his waist again, "Oops, it hurts, it hurts, when did you learn this trick, without pinching people." ”
"Let you be evil!"
"Don't dare next time."
"And next time?"
"Oops-------"
Feeling the wires on the wall, I successfully found the motor room, closed the brake, but did not turn on the power supply, found the motor in the dark, smelled diesel oil, and found several barrels of diesel fuel around at the same time. Zheng Dong is familiar with this kind of generator, which is eliminated by developed countries and is very common in Africa.
Found the oil pump and a small oil drum, filled the diesel engine, the motor shook a little, spewed out choking black smoke, roared and began to work, closed again, the light bulb flickered on and off a few times, and the whole bunker was brightly lit.
There are some words on the wall of the computer room, and when you walk in, you can quickly make out the motor operation guide in German. EO requires mercenaries to be able to speak at least three languages, and German is one of the ways Zheng Dong has learned.
There is also a transmission line distribution map next to the operation guide, indicating the location and function of the room, office, command center, guardhouse, warehouse------, see these words, familiar with German history know that in the country of Eastern Europe, this kind of facility was built only by the German army in World War II, they set up a temporary command center on the Eastern Front battlefield - Wolf's den.
Zheng Dong looked at the map and said, "Let's go to the command center first, and then go to the warehouse, hoping to gain something." ”
A long corridor, flanked by guardhouses, with doors open or ajar, pushed open and a German helmet on a table in the middle, and a pair of boots under the bed. On either side were wooden beds with bunk beds, the bedding was black and smelled musty, and on the bed was thrown an SS soldier's uniform, and on the sleeves of the uniform was sewn an armband that destroyed three tanks, an honor that only the most brave soldier could receive.
In the brutal Eastern Front of World War II, to be able to destroy three tanks on his own requires not only excellent combat quality, but also superhuman courage to face death, and the owner of this uniform, what made him panic, did not wear clothes, and left a boot to evacuate in a hurry.
Zheng Dong walked in front with an axe, Mu Yun'er followed closely behind, walking along the corridor, passing by every room, he glanced at the indoor situation, but without exception, it was all empty, and he couldn't even see a ghost.
Around the bend, scattered bullet marks appeared on the wall, and it was clear that there had been a fierce battle here. Zheng Dong leaned against the wall, took a look, there were two people in the corridor, raised the polished axe in his hand, and stretched out a little from the wall, the axe reflected the situation of the passage like a mirror: one was lying down, the other was standing, both of them had weapons in their hands, especially the one who was still in a shooting posture, motionless, and saw their faces clearly, the skin was as black as mummies, confirming that it was undoubtedly two corpses.
Zheng Dong and Mu Yun'er approached the first lying corpse, and the strong smell of corpses came to their faces, and after Mu Yun'er saw it, she turned around and retched a few times in succession.
"Are you alright?" Zheng Dong looked at her with concern.
"It's fine!" Mu Yun'er hurriedly waved her hand and covered her mouth, but she didn't take a step forward.
The deceased was an ordinary SS soldier, neatly dressed, with shriveled black skin, and his hands still clutching the rifle. At the last moment of his fall, he seemed to see something terrible, and he still retained a frightened expression, his mouth was wide open, and strangely there were no wounds on his body.
When he took off the gun, he almost pulled the wrist of the corpse off, it was a Kar.98K Mauser rifle, Zheng Dong checked it, the overall condition of the gun was good, there were still four rounds in the magazine, it seemed that he only fired one shot, and there was no chance to fire a second shot. took out a handkerchief, wiped it briefly, threw it to Mu Yun'er who was standing aside, and took out a few rows of bullets from the ammunition box hanging on the armed belt and handed it to her.
The second standing corpse was wearing underwear, with one bare foot, and the MP40 submachine gun in his hand was still aimed at the front, which should be the soldier with the honor of the tank armband, even though he was already dead, he still maintained a menacing expression, and there were no wounds on his body.
As soon as he touched him, the body fell to the ground, Zheng Dong took his submachine gun, there was only an empty magazine, he shot all the bullets before he died, and there was no spare magazine on his body, a gun without bullets was useless, out of respect for the brave, he put the gun next to the corpse.
After walking a short distance, I finally arrived at the door of the command center, but found that the door of the room was locked, the axe was cut up, and the sparks were everywhere, and there was only a shallow trace on the door, and the axe blade also broke a hole, which was a thickened iron door.
Zheng Dong looked at Mu Yun'er and shook his head, "Let's go to the warehouse and have a look, there should be a crowbar there." ”
According to his memories of the route map, the warehouse was found in the depths of the bunker, and there were several corpses in front of the warehouse door, and the warehouse key was found on one of them.
Opening the door of the warehouse, Zheng Dong's eyes lit up, this is a small arsenal, the shelves are placed with all kinds of firearms, even "Iron Fist" bazookas and mortars, and there are unboxed weapons and ammunition neatly stacked on the wall.
Mu Yun'er screamed happily, threw away the gun in her hand, and entered the toy store excitedly like a little girl, picked up her favorite toys, and found a Mauser sniper rifle with a scope. Picking up a crowbar, he pried open a box with a shiny black machine gun and an MG42 Hitler chainsaw, and opened another box with a brand-new MP40 wrapped in waterproof paper.
Zheng Dong randomly picked out a brand-new MP40, put on an armed belt, pinned a few magazines, grabbed a few grenades on the shelf, and brought a crowbar, "Have you chosen?" ”
"Brother, you see there is still military canned food here, I don't know if I can eat it." Mu Yun'er carried a gun on her back and stared at a row of shelves.
"Are you hungry? If I'm not mistaken, it's more than half a century old, look at the production date. ”
"Half a century, won't it?" She picked up a dark green tin can, her eyes widened and she took a closer look, "I'm so hungry, it's a pity." Reluctantly, he put it back on the shelf.
"If you have a gun, you will fight a few wolves, let's eat wolf meat."
"Is it delicious?" It seemed that she was really hungry, Zheng Dong replied casually: "It tastes similar to dog meat, right?" ”
"Hmph, you know I like dogs."
"I haven't eaten either, let's go to the command center first."
Back at the door of the command center, Zheng Dong used an axe and crowbar to cut a small pit in the iron gate and cement wall, just enough to put a grenade, pull out the safe, and leave quickly, followed by a loud bang, covering his ears and buzzing. When the smoke cleared, I walked to the door, and the iron door had been blown open, and a large piece of debris flew into the house and pierced into the opposite wall.
An oval-shaped table was placed in the middle of the room, and on the other wall hung a map of the battlefield situation at that time, and the explosion overturned some chairs, and the room was in shambles.
By the flickering light, three more bodies were found, which looked a little strange, two bodies leaning against each other, with the gun at their feet, and one sitting on the ground with his hands outstretched, still holding a pistol in his hand, judging from the wounds and the stiffness of the body, they were suicidal.
There is also a compartment next to the conference room, after opening the door and entering, as soon as the light is turned on, I see a person lying on the table, a soft-brimmed military hat is placed on the edge, and I see that his epaulettes should be the rank of colonel, and when I look closer, he still holds a photo of his family in his left hand, and his right hand is lying on a notebook, holding a fountain pen, the last word seems to be unfinished, and the strokes are very long, obviously he committed suicide by taking poison.
Zheng Dong picked up the notebook, the answer he wanted to know might be on it, but Mu Yun'er gently picked up the photo from the man's hand. Zheng Dong also stepped forward to take a look, there was a woman and two children in the photo, Mu Yun'er looked at it carefully, and said with some sadness: "His wife is so beautiful, you see, these two children ------"
The woman is still more emotional, Zheng Dong secretly said in his heart, in the context of that era, whether the officer's family can survive the war is a question.
He opened the notebook and looked back and forward, because it was the most direct clue to the cause of his death, and the last sentence was: "Dear Claudia, my lovely children, I can't go back, I hope you live well, love you, von Blauck is the last writer." ”
Turning the page forward, "August 16, 1944, damn Schneider, damn it!" Damn it! He shouldn't disturb his soul, what to do? What to do? We didn't dare to go out, the people outside died, and several of us were trapped in the house for three days! Hans has committed suicide, and the spirits of others are about to collapse, God, I am your devout believer, please accept my confession. ”
His soul, whose soul is disturbed? Is this haunted?
