District 9

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, around 6:30 in the evening, the management staff, garrison troops, and core staff of the No. 109 mining base in Xibo No Man's Land were ready to evacuate.

At the same time, the first batch of more than a thousand workers were held hostage with weapons by soldiers from the garrison and escorted to the compound in front of the dormitory building.

These workers were almost all core members who participated in the riot throughout the entire process. Unfortunately, they were unable to break out from the direction of the cliff.

The searchlights in the compound passed overhead. The workers gathered together, their eyes dull and lifeless. Above the high wall and the electric grid, machine guns exuded murderous intent, and the black muzzles were pointed at this group of innocent people.

Old Qiao, the bearded man who had talked with Meng Xi, and the familiar faces in dormitory 415 were all among the crowd...

"...I...we can't wait until they come back..." A worker suddenly squatted down, hugging his head and crying: "We are all going to die..."

"I want to go home!"

"Don't kill me! Ah, I want to go home!"

"...!"

Several workers broke down emotionally, wailing and crying, and ran towards the exit under the high wall and electric grid.

"Kang Kang!"

Soldiers scattered in the distance opened fire under the high wall and electric grid, and several workers fell to the ground on the spot.

On the high wall, a battalion commander whispered to the regiment commander: "Shall we start?"

The leader of the fifth district looked at the densely packed workers in the courtyard below with a pale face, his eyes a little hollow.

"It is the duty of soldiers to obey orders. If the superiors ask for execution, we can only execute it." the battalion commander advised.

"... Is it so difficult for our honor and faith to be manifested only by massacring the poor?" The leader looked at the wailing workers below with great ambivalence. After hesitating for a long time, he turned around and said, "I'll go communicate with the higher-ups."

The battalion commander reached out and grabbed his arm, and whispered again: "Sir, you know in your heart that we have no ability to change anything."

The leader turned around and looked at him blankly, speechless.

"Report to the regimental commander, Chief Li from the command room called." The signal soldier ran over.

The regiment leader hesitated, then reached out and took the phone: "Sir Li."

"Why hasn't the gunshot gone off yet? What's going on?" Li Zhixun asked.

The leader's lips twitched: "Sir, I'm thinking..."

"Your mission is to execute it, deal with it immediately, and then protect the engineer team to evacuate." Li Zhixun responded without any emotion in his voice.

"...Yes!" the group leader gritted his teeth and replied.

"Dudu!"

Li Zhixun hung up the phone.

The regiment leader threw the general's phone to the correspondent. After two seconds of silence, he waved his hand and shouted: "Get ready to shoot!"

"...!"

On the high wall grid, there were more than 20 machine guns and machine guns, and at the same time there was the sound of the safety being opened and the gun body rotating.

"Stop crying and asking no more!"

At this moment, Lao Qiao stood in the crowd and suddenly shouted: "It's useless. Before you die, can you leave some dignity for yourselves? If you beg them, they won't shoot? They won't kill you." Huh? Huh?!”

Lao Qiao's call spread throughout the compound. Gradually, the begging and crying stopped, and the workers' eyes and expressions became extremely dull.

Quiet, eerily quiet in the compound. The workers stood together upright, either closing their eyes or holding hands with each other.

On top of the wall, the regiment leader turned around and waved his hand: "Fire!"

With an order, more than 20 machine guns, hundreds of automatic rifles, and several defensive machine guns opened fire collectively in an instant.

"Da da da da...!"

Fierce gunfire resounded in Mining Base No. 109, and the flames spurting from the muzzle were bright and dazzling.

The brutal massacre began.

This is a shameful incident left to all mankind by all the officers, commanders, and soldiers involved in the massacre in Area 5 and Base 109. Their descendants will be ashamed of this, and no matter how much time passes, they will never be able to wash away this sin.

After the gunfire, a large number of people fell on the land one by one. Their blood melted the snow, their bodies were piled on top of each other, and they wailed all over the ground...

The middle-aged man with a beard looked at the compatriots in the front row falling to the ground with dilated pupils, and shouted with his eyes closed: "...go home."

"Puff puff……!"

A platoon of guns came over, Bearded fell to the ground on his back, and his body was broken into pieces.

"Liar, we were deceived, there are no troops to rescue us!"

"They ran away and we died!"

"...!"

Those who participated in the riot shouted amid gunfire and wails. Before Meng Xi and others left, they told Lao Qiao and others that troops from the three major districts would come here to rescue them. However, they waited for Ah Jing, but they did not wait for those who could defend them.

The gunfire gradually stopped, and the soldiers and officers responsible for the massacre began to replace their ammunition.

There were less than 200 people left standing in the compound under the high wall and electric grid. Their spirits have completely collapsed and they want to scatter around uncontrollably.

In the direction of the main building, Li Zhixun stood at the window, watching everything that happened in the massacre site expressionlessly, then turned and left: "Have the Liberal Party troops arrived?"

"Yes, we are already moving closer." The adjutant nodded.

"Let General Li evacuate first." Li Zhixun replied.

In the compound where the execution took place, Lao Qiao was lying on the ground with several bullets in his body, blood coming from his mouth and nose. He twisted his neck with great effort and looked in the direction of the three major districts: "Wait... I can't wait anymore..."

"Buzz!"

At this moment, a sharp siren suddenly sounded in Base 109.

In the main building, Li Zhixun had just walked out of the office when he saw an officer running over with a pale face: "Sir Li, the radar has detected that a large number of helicopters are coming towards my base..."

Li Zhixun was startled for a moment: "Impossible. There is no way the troops from District 9 could arrive so quickly."

"No, it's not the Self-Defense Forces of District 9. We have been keeping an eye on them." The officer shook his head and replied: "It should be the armed forces from Beifengkou. They came around."

"From Beifengkou?" Li Zhixun replied incredulously: "It's impossible for them to get involved in such a thing?!"

High in the sky on the side of No. 109, a man wearing the military uniform of the Wu Mercenary Group asked succinctly in a helicopter: "Report, our helicopter formation has approached the target location, do you want to open fire?"

At Beifengkou, in the headquarters of Wu's mercenary group, Anzi asked Wu Tianyin: "Fight... fight?"

"Beat him." Wu Tianyin replied concisely.

Anzi took the walkie-talkie and immediately replied: "Fire!"

Outside Base 109.

"Swish swish!"

Dozens of airborne RPGs glowed brightly in the sky, shooting straight into the base.

After a brief moment of tranquility.

"Boom, boom, boom...!"

A violent explosion sounded. The main building of the base was the first to be severely damaged, and fire shot into the sky.

Inside the building, Major General Li, who was just about to walk out, felt the building sway obviously. Then the wall on the left was blasted open by an RPG. Countless gravel poured into the room, knocking down everyone.

In the compound under the high wall and electric grid, Lao Qiao's eyes, which were about to close, vaguely saw light in the dark sky. It was a helicopter flying from the direction of the north wind...

"No... you didn't lie to me... I'm here..." Lao Qiao muttered and breathed out.

In the command plane, the commander ordered again: "Pull up, avoid the opponent's air defense system, and prepare for a second attack."

More than forty helicopters quickly dispersed and raised their altitude again.

In the command position near Beifengkou, an officer quickly ran to the camp and said to Xiang Zehao: "Report to the commander, Wu Tianyin's Wu mercenary group has joined the war."

Xiang Zehao was startled for a moment, and then said with sonorous words: "Ten thousand private armed forces in the three major districts are not too many. Wu Tianyin is a man!"
