After Zhou Qiang finished washing, he couldn't raise his head when he returned to the dormitory, and he dragged his feet in the afternoon with the physical fitness test of the third class, although squad leader Luo didn't blame him, but it could be seen that squad leader Luo was still a little sad.

"Squad leader, I'm dragging my feet again." Zhou Qiang looked at Rome on the top bunk and said.

"You've only been here for a few months? It's normal to be physically fit, so be more serious when you train in the future. Rome was lying on the bed, holding a picture of their family of three, and the little girl in the picture looked about two years old, smiling happily.

"Your baby has only been here for a long time? I want to compare with other veterans, I wasn't at the bottom when I first came, don't panic! Li Yunkai, who spoke, is a native of Chengdu, usually smiling and looking very festive.

"Lao Luo, are you thinking about your intimate little padded jacket again?" Looking at the photo in Rome's hand, Li Yunkai couldn't help but be annoyed.

Rome withdrew his gaze, and before he could speak, he suddenly heard a long whistle outside, followed by several hurried short whistles.

"What's the matter, it's here again?" Zhou Qiang has been in the army for less than three months, and he is too familiar with this whistle, and when he first enlisted in the army, he was most afraid of hearing this sound, and often did not dare to take off his clothes in order not to be late.

"Say no more! Gather urgently now! Roman's face changed, and he knew in his heart that if there was an emergency assembly for a surprise inspection, it would not be at this time, it would usually be late at night, and everyone had not slept at this time.

In less than 5 minutes, the Roman squad was already dressed and stood on the playground, and Zhou Qiang realized at this time that not only their class, but the entire three companies were gathering.

More than a dozen military cars have already been parked on the playground.

Until he got the equipment and sat in the car, Zhou Qiang was still a little confused, and after the company commander gathered just now, he directly let him get the equipment and get into the car, and did not announce what task he was performing.

The first car at the head of the line was the third shift in the second row where Zhou Qiang was.

"Squad leader, this time the entire third company has been dispatched, is it a drill? I didn't hear the notification. ”

"It's all live ammunition, not like a drill." Rome shook his head, looking at the Type 81 automatic rifle in his hand, and even the grenade, he was also a little unsure in his heart, but he was afraid that this mission would not be too simple.

Zhou Qiang was a little drumming in his heart, and he was inevitably nervous when he carried out the task for the first time.

No one spoke again, everyone's faces were serious, and the atmosphere was a little tense.

"Huh? Ran to Qingcheng Mountain to be a sprinkler? When the car stopped, Li Yunkai recognized this place and said a little strangely.

"The first platoon, the third platoon blocked the intersections of each downhill, found all suspicious people, can be arrested immediately, if there is a special situation of fierce resistance, it is allowed to shoot, the second platoon will follow me up the mountain." After issuing a series of orders, the company commander led the second platoon to the mountain.

It can be seen that the company commander is a little anxious, the speed of climbing the mountain along the way is very fast, and Zhou Qiang can still keep up at first, but after more than an hour of climbing, he is slowly a little exhausted.

However, the company commander in front had no intention of stopping at all, and Zhou Qiang could only grit his teeth and persevere, trying not to fall behind.

Finally, when Zhou Qiang felt that his legs were a little numb, it had finally arrived.

It's already more than 11 o'clock in the evening, because the car can't drive up, so there is no lighting equipment here, only a few strong flashlights, by the light Zhou Qiang saw a relatively flat place, there is a hole on this side of the mountain, more than ten people wearing police clothes are surrounding the hole, looking a little nervous, the scene has already pulled a cordon.

Seeing Zhou Qiang and their arrival, they hurriedly greeted them.

"Hello, I'm Director Liu of the Municipal Bureau." A middle-aged man in his 40s spoke.

"How's it going?" The company commander went straight to the point.

"It's not optimistic, it's been almost 12 hours since the first people arrived." Director Liu shook his head.

Then he told the company commander what happened.

It turned out that this morning, when the police officers of the substation were chasing the three robbers, the three suspects fled all the way and hid in this hole.

The police officers of the city branch did not hesitate to follow and chased down, and the police officers who stayed on the shore to wait could not contact the people inside after waiting for two hours, so they could only quickly inform the city branch of the situation.

This incident immediately attracted great attention from above, and after a total of 9 people were sent down before and after, they all lost contact with the same as before, and only when the last group of personnel went down, a few gunshots rang out and there was no sound anymore.

The sound of gunfire is relatively small, and it can be inferred that it should be deeper into the cave, and now it has been almost 12 hours since the first group of personnel went down, and it is estimated that it has been more than lucky.

Since the suspects in the cave may be armed with more lethal weapons, the military can only intervene.

After listening to this, the company commander frowned, this mission doesn't seem to be difficult, just 3 robbers, but there are so many people dispatched in front, and even the following situation has not been transmitted, which is a bit unbelievable.

"The situation is a bit complicated, there are three suspects who escaped into the hole, a total of 9 police officers have no news now, but they heard gunshots, so the criminals are very likely to have weapons, so when they meet the suspects, they are allowed to shoot directly after a warning."

"The third shift entered the cave to search, and the first and second shifts were on standby at the entrance of the cave, ready to support at any time." The company commander gave the order.

After sorting out and inspecting the weapons and equipment, the third squad entered the cave under the leadership of Rome.

All of a sudden, Zhou Qiang felt a musty smell, turned on the flashlight and everyone saw the bottom of the cave clearly, although the entrance of the cave was not big, but after coming down, he found that the space below was quite large.

The surrounding walls were a little wet, and some stray footprints could be seen in the dirt on the ground, which should have been left by the previous people, and under the command of Rome, a group of people began to advance towards the depths of the cave.

In addition to some footprints, nothing else was found, and finally after searching for more than 600 meters, there was a fork in the road, and there were footprints on the two roads in front of him, indicating that the police officers who came down before were also searching separately here.

The Romans hesitated, but decided to search the two caves separately in groups of five.

"Pay attention to safety, if you find that it is not the police, the first warning, if you refuse to surrender, you are allowed to shoot directly." After giving orders to the other group, Rome walked towards the two caves.

Zhou Qiang followed the Roman group, at this time the cave was a little cold, and he didn't find anything about the police who came down before, and suddenly Rome, who was walking in front, raised his hand to signal them to stop.

"Something is wrong, it smells of blood, be on guard."

The Roman group slowed down, slowly searched forward while on guard, and finally found a piece of dirt on the ground at the corner of the cave, a little dark in color, and a dropped pistol not far away.

When confirming that the dark dirt on the ground was bloodstained, Rome knew that sure enough, the people who came down before were estimated to be more than lucky.

Rome picked up the gun and found that all the bullets had been fired, but strangely, after careful search, no bullet holes were found in the surrounding walls, indicating that the bullets should have hit the target, and there were no valuable clues at the scene other than the blood on the ground and the pistol.

So they could only move on, but there were more and more blood stains on the ground, because of the nervousness Zhou Qiang's hands were covered with sweat, and he held a semi-automatic rifle tightly in his hand, as if this could bring him a sense of security, and suddenly he felt like he had stepped on something under his feet, and he saw that it was a broken hand with a flashlight.

Zhou Qiang screamed in fright, and hurriedly took two steps back, if it weren't for Li Yunkai behind him to help him, he would have fallen to the ground.

Rome squatted down and looked at it, it was a right hand, the fracture was not smooth, not like it was cut off with a knife, but it seemed to be torn apart by a huge force, this strange scene made everyone a little nervous, and now it is not sure whether the severed hand on the ground is the previous policeman's, or the suspect's, but no matter who it is, this is a bit unreasonable.

"Keep going, be on guard!" After putting the severed hand in a bag, Rome emphasized it again.

The first task now is to search for the nine police officers who have disappeared before, whether alive or dead.

The sound of footsteps and heavy wheezing in the quiet cave was straight, and suddenly a fierce gunfire rang out from the depths of the cave, not the sound of pistols, but the sound of semi-automatic rifles, and at least three or more people were shooting, and Rome immediately understood that it must be another group of people shooting, and they were in danger.

Although they didn't know why the team members searching in another cave were in the depths of the cave on their side, saving people was important now, and everyone immediately ran to the depths where the gunshots rang out.

The gunfire did not last long, and in less than two minutes, it was quiet again, and an ominous premonition rose in Rome's mind, either the danger had been lifted, and there was another possibility, which was the last thing Rome wanted to accept, that was that the other group had all been killed.

Rome was so anxious that he couldn't help but quicken his pace, and finally saw a stumbling figure in the distance.

"Who is it?" Rome roared and aimed his gun at the incoming.

"Squad leader, it's me." A weak voice came.

Rome took a few steps forward, and under the light of a flashlight, he saw Zhang Yi, who was covered in blood, and he was one of the members of the other group.

Zhang Yi seemed to be seriously injured, and after continuing to walk forward a few steps, he could no longer stand steadily, and fell forward, and everyone hurriedly stepped forward to catch him.

"Zhang Yi, what about the others?" Rome couldn't wait to find out what happened to the others.

"All dead, all dead." Zhang Yi's eyes were blank, and there was a deep wound on his left shoulder that could be seen as bone.

Rome asked Li Yunkai to take out the first-aid kit to bandage Zhang Yi's wounds, Li Yunkai took out the first-aid kit and didn't have time to move, suddenly Zhang Yi looked at the direction he came from with a frightened face, "They're coming, they're coming, let's go!" ”

In the depths of the cavern, a figure was running towards them.

"Stop!" Rome raised his gun and yelled at the visitor, but the figure did not reply and continued to run forward, Rome did not hesitate to pull the trigger, and a series of bullets hit the figure, and the figure just paused and continued to rush.

The scalps of everyone were numb, and they hurriedly raised their guns to shoot at the figure, and the powerful firepower finally hit the person to the ground.

Only then did I see that this person was wearing a police uniform, could it be that this was the police officer who came down before!

Rome was shocked, he was shocked, could it be that he had hit the wrong person, and hurriedly signaled Hu Jing, who was traveling with him, to come forward to check the situation together.

Li Yunkai continued to bandage Zhang Yi's wounds.

Zhou Qiang really shot at a real person for the first time, and he was a little scared in his heart, and the hand holding the gun couldn't help but tremble.

As soon as Rome and Hu Jing approached the corpse, Zhang Yi seemed to remember something.

"Don't go over!"

Rome and Hu Jing saw Zhang Yi's exclamation, and just turned to look at Zhang Yi, the policeman who had fallen suddenly burst out, and in Zhou Qiang's frightened eyes, Hu Jing, who was very close, felt a sharp pain coming, and looked down to see a hand with long nails piercing his chest.

Rome reacted first, fired several shots at the policeman's head, and knocked him to the ground again, the body on the ground was still convulsing, the enraged Rome stepped forward and pointed at the head of the corpse and frantically pressed the trigger, and then beat the corpse's head to pieces, at which point Cai stopped convulsing.

Rome hurriedly checked Hu Jing's injury, Hu Jing, who was pierced by his hand in the chest, was spitting blood, and he couldn't say a word at this time, he looked straight at Rome, his eyes were full of unwillingness and nostalgia for this world, and he died in Rome's arms.

Before there was time to grieve, there was a rush of footsteps, and in the depths of the cave there were two more figures running wildly, Rome hurriedly retreated, and everyone raised their guns again to shoot.

"Hit them in the head!" Rome had already guessed the weakness of these weirdos, and immediately told Zhou Qiang about them.

As he expected, after being shot in the head, two strange men in police uniforms fell, and Roma quickly stepped forward and shot him in the head.

Just as everyone was breathing a sigh of relief, they heard footsteps again, and Rome did not hesitate.

"Retreat now!"

Zhou Qiang and Li Yunkai helped the seriously injured Zhang Yi, and after Roma and the other remaining teammate Liu Yun broke in the back, there were 5 figures this time.

Rome and Liu Yun fought and retreated, and as soon as their bullets were finished, they took Zhou Qiang and Li Yunkai's guns and continued to shoot, but everyone did not notice that there were two monsters that were no longer human, and they were clinging to the top of the cave and crawling towards them quickly.

Under the powerful firepower, the five monsters finally fell, and several people finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, Zhou Qiang noticed a strange noise coming from the top, and before he could remind everyone, the two monsters had already pounced.

Because it happened too suddenly, and the monster's movements were very agile, when several people didn't react, Li Yunkai had already been hit by the monster on the neck, blood splashed Zhou Qiang's face, and the other also bit off Liu Yun's neck.

Rome happened to be next to Liu Yun, raised the gun in his hand and pulled the trigger on the head of the monster lying on Liu Yun's body, the monster was instantly shot in the head, and when he was about to shoot the other one, he found that he was out of bullets.

And here, when the monster killed Li Yunkai, he immediately opened a bigger opening in the chest of Zhang Yi, who was already seriously injured, with a claw, and Zhang Yi fell to the ground and fainted under the severe pain, and he couldn't survive.

Zhou Qiang was already frightened, he reacted and immediately retreated, and the monster immediately ran towards Zhou Qiang.

As soon as the monster turned, its sharp claws plunged directly into Rome's back.

"Zhou Qiang, run!!" After Rome shouted this, he pulled out the grenade that he had already prepared in his hand.

Before the monster could break free, the explosion of the grenade directly tore one person and one monster apart, and Zhou Qiang was also lifted by the air flow generated by the explosion and knocked into the wall of the cave and fainted.
