The flash bomb exploded. Except for Tang Shuxing, the other four US soldiers had no time to react. They screamed and covered their eyes...
Tang Shuxing, who closed his eyes and blocked his eyes with his arms, rushed forward and tried to catch the guy back and ask what happened. Although this team of US troops is not his own, who is the person who is involved in their team?
I also want to figure it out, maybe I can figure out what these US troops on the island are doing.
"Horas!" The machine gunner finally called the sniper's name and signaled the person in front to stop, but the sniper didn't listen at all, so he ran away. During the run, he threw his gas surface to the ground.
During this period, his body was constantly cut by the sharp stones around him, but he still kept on.
"Hey—" Tang Shuxing saw it in the back that a big hole in the neck of the sniper Horas was cut off, but the person was still not caring about it, bumping around like a headless fly, "Don't run away
!You will die!"
"I..." Horas in front suddenly spoke, but when he said a word, it seemed as if he was choked back by something, it was very strange.
Finally, Horas in front fell down and rolled down because of the slippery ramp in the hole. When the person reached the bottom, he was already covered in blood.
Tang Shuxing rushed to the front and helped Horas up. Just as he was about to check the injury, the machine gunner also jumped down, pressed the wound on Horas' neck with his hand, and called the others to come and rescue him quickly.
Push Tang Shuxing away.
Although he was separated by a gas mask, because of the strong light, Tang Shuxing could clearly see the fierce eyes of the machine gunner, thinking that he had killed his teammates.
Tang Shuxing stood there, looking at Horas who was constantly twitching, and always felt something was wrong.
Even if this guy is sent by a certain faction in the current political axe in the United States, there is no need for him to escape, right? His IQ is not so low that he thinks that just by his "captive", his teammates will tie him up and send him back for interrogation?
Tang Shuxing really doesn't understand.
Lying in the arms of the machine gunner, Horas clenched his fists and waved them up and down, pointed forward, and poked hard in that direction with his hand, as if saying something was there.
"Horas! It's okay, we will take you back! Hold on!" He covered the wound on Horas' neck tightly, but Horas's originally bent legs slowly relaxed and his head fell to death.
The other three soldiers around him lowered their heads. After a long time, the communications soldier stepped forward and patted the machine gunner's shoulder, indicating that the wound could be released, and Horas was dead.
The machine gunner let go of Horas, looked at the blood in his hands, and whispered to everyone to take turns carrying Horas's body and go back immediately. Tang Shuxing judged from their performance that this sniper should be them.
The first soldier to die in the operation.
"You carry him on your back." The machine gunner stood up and let Tang Shuxing carry Horas's body on his back.
Tang Shuxing nodded, knowing that the machine gunner blamed his companion's death on himself. At this time, it is better not to anger the other party. So he carried Horas's body as required by the machine gunner, and then led the way forward.
A US military followed behind with a gun.
As we moved forward, Tang Shuxing clearly remembered that the direction the machine gunner pointed to was not here before, but the cave was well connected, so they probably got lost. In such a place, GPS or compass had no effect.
He could only judge by himself, and he was also puzzled how these five American soldiers got in? However, he recalled the story Ayue said about the Japanese photographer, and subconsciously turned around and asked the machine gunner: "You are from the end
Did the hole get into the basement of a building in the island?"
The machine gunner suddenly stood up, then quickly walked to Tang Shuxing, approached Tang Shuxing and asked, "What else do you know?"
"I'm just guessing." Tang Shuxing shook his head, and knew that he had guessed it.
The machine gunner slowly shook his head: "Guess? No one can guess so accurately. Who are you?"
"I think it's strange. Logically speaking, if you were really a US special forces, you shouldn't have no idea who I am." Tang Shuxing also shook his head and said, "This is the truth. He and Gu Huaiyi and Ji Kefeng have participated in so many things, so they have long since been there.
After being on the blacklist of various countries, normally, the US intelligence agencies are also aware of their affairs in Japan, and it is impossible for this group of troops to come to Duan Island to be a coincidence. Why don’t these groups know about them?
Apparently, the machine gunner was reluctant to answer his question, and just glanced at him and urged him to move on.
Tang Shuxing walked without saying a word, but he was walking in the direction he pointed before Horas' death. Although the machine gunner and his subordinates remained calm, they actually knew that they were lost and placed their hopes on Tang.
While Shu Xing, a stranger who may be familiar with this place, was also alert to him that he would bring himself into a trap or ambush circle.
They moved forward about a distance of about a few dozen meters. Because the ground was slippery and there was no light at all, they were traveling extremely slowly. Tang Shuxing, a mutant, also realized that the air quality was gradually changing in this harsh environment.
Not only did it be very thin, but it was also mixed with something else inside, and even I felt a little difficult to breathe.
The four US troops in the rear slowed down and began to bite their respirators and advanced. At the same time, they even doubted Tang Shuxing's identity - because this kid was still alive in an environment with such thin air and full of toxic gases, carrying him on his back
Not to mention the heavy equipment, he also carried a strong man who was dead and weighed more than 170 kilograms on his back.
"Stop!" Tang Shuxing gave up his hand to raise his fist, signaling the person behind him to stop because he saw something shaking in front of him, and signaling the machine gunner to hold a strong light to light up in his position.
The machine gunman stepped forward and shone it with a strong flashlight. He found a hole in front of him, with many white bones piled up inside the hole.
Tang Shuxing was about to move forward, but the machine gunner stopped him and waved his hand to signal his subordinates to check. Then the communications soldier stayed. Two rifles, holding guns, stepped forward at the entrance of the cave for a while, and soon came back to report:
"There is a tunnel in front of it, it seems like it is a mine."
"Mine." The machine gunner nodded. Tang Shuxing also knew that this should be possible to go to the ground. Duan Island was originally a coal mine.
Everyone got out of the cave and walked into the mine tunnel. After entering, everyone was shocked because the rows of skeletons on both sides of the tunnel were basically sitting on the side of the tunnel. Many people were sitting on the surface of their bodies.
There were also sharp weapons in it, and many people's bones were obviously broken, and their sternum, skull, and leg bones had been hit by heavy objects, and these people were all killed.
"Sir, it seems that there are at least fifty or sixty bones here, and the bones are about 170 cm tall. They should be all Asians. It is roughly judging from the surface of the bones that they have been dead for at least decades."
The communications soldier in the company also works as a team doctor, and he is experienced. He does not seem to be the kind of person who has been in the army for two or three years, which makes Tang Shuxing even more suspicious of the origin of this team.
Tang Shuxing stood around and looked, squatting in front of a skeleton wearing only thin pieces and looking carefully, and after a long time, he said: "Most of the people here have no clothes to wear. It is estimated that Japan came from the Second World War. Most of the workers who invaded the country were Chinese and Koreans."
The machine gunner nodded silently and signaled the correspondent to take a photo with his camera.
Tang Shuxing looked at their actions and shook his head and said, "What are you going to do when you take a picture? These bones have nothing to do with your mission. Even if you take a picture, I don't believe that you Americans will uphold justice for these dead workers?" Are you the ones who protect the invaders behind you?”
Speaking of this, Tang Shuxing did not continue, because those people have paid a heavy price in Gong Liang Boli's bloody plan, but doing so will not be able to truly save these people who died in foreign lands.
During World War II, in order to support the Pacific War and solve the problem of insufficient domestic labor force, the Japanese cabinet formulated the "Decision on Moving to the Domestic Labor Matters" in 1942. Before that, many industries in Japan had However, Japan applied for importing labor. Subsequently, Japan would be transported from North China, Central China and Northeast China to be captured soldiers and forced recruited civilians to Japan and become coolies.
It was found from clearly documented lists and documents that from April 1943 to May 1945, Japan abducted 169 batches of workers from China alone, totaling 41,758 people, of which nearly 3,000 died on the way to Japan. People, most of these people are young and middle-aged people aged 49, including 157 child laborers, 248 elderly people over 60 years old, and 12 people over 70 years old.
These people were transported to all parts of Japan and forced to serve in 135 enterprises. These workers, who were almost the same as slaves, had no clothes to wear, were wrapped in straw at most, worked barefoot in the cold winter, and worked almost every day. It was 15 hours later, and died of illness, starved to death, and was also tortured and buried alive.
There are also some Chinese workers on Duan Island, including a large number of North Korean employees. However, after the war, many people were listed as missing and not found. The reports later produced by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan have whitewashed the statistics. The number of people accounts for less than % of the real number.
"Many years ago, surviving workers applied for compensation. In fact, compensation is just an explanation." Tang Shuxing put down Horas's body and looked at the bones in front of him and said, "Some companies in Japan promised to do so every time." I personally give some money, but do you know what the money I wrote is for when collecting the compensation letter?”
The machine gunner turned his head and looked at Tang Shuxing. Tang Shuxing said word by word: "It's 'relief', that is, those miscellaneous people think they are pitying these people, and these surviving workers are blackmailing them..." Thinking of this, Tang Shu Xing shook his head and smiled bitterly. For a moment, he suddenly felt that what Gong Liang Boli did was not cruel at all. He just did what some victims wanted to do before going to bed every day.
That's all.
"A three-year-old child knows that he can't lie. If he has any mistakes, he will admit it and correct it if he knows the mistakes." Tang Shuxing sat down and looked at the machine gunner and said, "Hey, do me a favor, you can help me, I will help you. Four will leave alive, otherwise you will be dead.”
The machine gunner looked at Tang Shuxing in confusion, not sure whether Tang Shuxing was seeking cooperation or threatening him, but just raised his gun and signaled him to say.
"I have to move all the bones here, find a way to bring them back to China, and then let the country find a way to contact the Nanzha side and identify the identity of the corpse." Tang Shuxing said as he looked deep in the tunnel, "Maybe, there is still a lot of inside.
