Expedition to Europe

In the dark and damp tunnel, the air was extremely turbid.

There were electric lights on the top of the tunnel to provide lighting, but it seemed that the power provided by the generator was not stable enough. The light and dark felt like it was out of breath and the power could be cut off at any time.

The German bombardment continued. Whenever a heavy artillery shell fell, the walls around them would always "rustle" and fall down. People were terrified, as if the tunnel would collapse at the next moment and bury everyone alive.

This place is about 30 meters underground. If the tunnel really collapsed, the people inside would rather commit suicide directly.

Fortunately, there were cement pillars every few meters in the tunnel for reinforcement, and the top was densely supported by logs, which made people feel more at ease.

Rolling in the same trench was also a fate. The Chinese workers and French soldiers began to try to communicate, you give me a cigarette, I pass me a can, etc., communicating in stuttering French with gestures. No one really cares what is said, as long as it is goodwill, it is enough.

"Brother, Lao Hu found a secret door behind the corner, and said that there seems to be a human presence behind it." Gao Hongshi hurried over with a rifle, and whispered to Qin Zhiyuan.

Lao Hu's original name was Hu Tingfeng, and his family had a ancestral tomb-robbing skill.

Hu Tingfeng was originally from Shaanxi, and later fled to Heze, Shandong. The density of ancient tombs in Shandong is not comparable to that in Shaanxi, and even if there are any, they have been dug up long ago. The skills passed down by Hu Tingfeng's ancestors were useless, so he simply applied for a job at Yimin Company and traveled to Europe to see if there was an opportunity to carry forward his ancestral skills.

Hu Tingfeng's family has a deep learning background, and he is very sensitive to secret doors and tunnels. Perhaps because he was in the tunnel, Hu Tingfeng's occupational disease broke out, and it is very likely that he found a secret passage.

Qin Zhiyuan remembered that the captain of Kapi said that there might be German troops on the position, and he became nervous immediately and informed the second lieutenant beside him.

"Are you sure?" The lieutenant was very alert, but unfortunately he used it in the wrong place. Regardless of whether the secret passage Qin Zhiyuan mentioned was true or not, the lieutenant should first confirm it instead of questioning it.

"I'm not sure!" Qin Zhiyuan immediately rejected it completely. For such a thing, it is better to believe it than not to believe it: "You can not believe it, but if I were you, I would confirm the authenticity."

"Of course, I would confirm it too." The lieutenant drew out the pistol from his waist and followed Qin Zhiyuan to the place where the secret passage was found.

The secret passage was built at a corner of about 90 degrees. If we analyze it according to the direction of the tunnel, it is indeed possible that there is a secret passage.

The soldiers and Chinese workers nearby have been cleared out, and only Hu Tingfeng is squatting at the corner, busying himself, as if he is looking for something like a mechanism.

"Old Hu." Qin Zhiyuan didn't go to the front to work, God knows whether a group of Germans will suddenly rush out from inside, so he greeted Hu Tingfeng from a distance.

"How did you find it, can you be sure?" Qin Zhiyuan first confirmed the authenticity, and then made plans.

"Hehe, there must be. There are many suspicious places, such as the cracks in the wall and the wood chips scattered on the ground. I just leaned on the door and listened. There was a faint movement over there. As long as it is not a big dumpling, it must be a person." Since it is a craft passed down from generation to generation, there must be some tricks. Hu Tingfeng is very sure.

"Damn, you are a big dumpling. Do you want me to get you two black dog hooves?" Qin Zhiyuan laughed and scolded, and then gave the second lieutenant the confirmed information.

The second lieutenant waved his hand, and immediately several soldiers brought two Haqi Case heavy machine guns as if they were facing a great enemy. Someone else brought sandbags and stacked them three or four layers. In the blink of an eye, a simple machine gun fortress was built.

"Grenadiers, find grenadiers to hide in another corner, and throw grenades in as soon as the door is opened." Qin Zhiyuan saw that someone had gone to install explosives, and hurriedly reminded him.

"It's a pity that you don't join the army. I will never let you go." The second lieutenant's eyes lit up, and he patted Qin Zhiyuan's shoulder and vowed.

"Let's get through this first." Qin Zhiyuan turned to Hu Tingfeng and asked, "Can you confirm how thick this wall is?"

"At most one foot, the door opens inwards, and there seems to be a stone behind the door." Hu Tingfeng is quite skilled in his business, and he speaks in professional terms.

"I'm hot, there's someone behind the door, where does the stone come from?" Qin Zhiyuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, Hu Tingfeng was too deep into the role.

"Hehe, I'm used to it." Hu Tingfeng smiled shyly, without the sharp-nosed monkey cheeks of a chicken-stealing and dog-stealing person.

Qin Zhiyuan informed the second lieutenant of the latest intelligence. The second lieutenant looked at Qin Zhiyuan with a broken look for a long time before squeezing out a sentence: "I will never let you go. If you leave here, I will apply for retirement."

Qin Zhiyuan was very troubled by the second lieutenant's obsession, and at the same time he felt a little inexplicably proud of being appreciated, so Qin Zhiyuan stretched out his hand: "Well, let me introduce myself. My name is Zhiyuan Qin, and I am very happy to meet you."

"Yes, me too, very happy to meet you, dear Zhiyuan, my name is David, David Edward." If you call David's name in Chinese and add his position, it will be as tongue twister as Lieutenant David.

The difference between the East and the West can be seen from the name. As Liu Yuan said when training police in the United States, Westerners put their names before their surnames to show respect for themselves; Chinese put their surnames before their names to show respect for their ancestors.

Just as Qin Zhiyuan and David were getting close, the engineers had already loaded the explosives. With a loud bang, smoke filled the air, gravel flew, the stone door was blown open, and the Germans screamed from the other side.

"Shoot, fill it with bullets before the barrel is broken." David looked ferocious, wishing he could stare all the Germans to death.

"Boom boom boom..."

The dull sound of shooting sounded, echoing in the tunnel and was extremely harsh. The whistling sound of the bullets cutting through the air was heartbreaking, mixed with the screams of the Germans and the curses of the French, just like "Black Sunday", which was maddening and seemed like the end of the world.

Under the flickering light, the bullets mixed with tracer bullets formed a red bullet chain, which swept past like a whip and disappeared into the endless darkness at the other end of the tunnel, tearing up everything it touched, whether it was a human body or something else, all of them were torn into nothingness.

The tunnel was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder, coupled with the strong smell of blood, and the smell of excrement emitted by people who died uncontrollably, making the already turbid air even more turbid, and it was nauseating to smell, just like poison gas, and you need to wear a gas mask to barely breathe normally.

In this way, humans wearing gas masks are more like demons from hell, madly harvesting the lives of their own kind.

Perhaps, humans are originally demons.
