Bright Sword: This unit is really ruthless

Boss Chen struggled to get up, but Zhang Ling stepped on his chest and he couldn't move...

"You...why do you want to kill me..." Boss Chen asked with difficulty.

"Because you deserve to die!" Zhang Ling said coldly.

Boss Chen wanted to say something, but Zhang Ling was already impatient.

He raised the dagger again...

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

......

Boss Chen's body twitched violently for a few times, and then he stopped breathing...

Zhang Ling pulled out the dagger, wiped it on Boss Chen's clothes, and then turned and left...

He walked out of the room and disappeared into the night...

......

The next morning, soldiers from the 54th Regiment found the body of Boss Chen...

The entire 54th Regiment was in an uproar...

No one knows who the murderer is...

No one knew that this was just the beginning of Zhang Ling's revenge plan...

The gunshot was sudden, and the cave was filled with a tooth-grinding echo. Wang Hu fell straight down, and the blood splashed on the gold bars, creating shocking "red flowers". Zhang Ling was stunned, and the strong smell of blood made his stomach churn. It's not like he had never killed someone before, but seeing a headshot at such a close distance still made him feel uncomfortable.

Outside the cave, the intensive gunfire continued. Zhang Ling reacted quickly. This was definitely not an accident. It was clearly a premeditated ambush! He grabbed Xu Erniu and Li Dazhuang and growled, "Go! It's the devils!"

The three crouched down, using the gold box as cover, and ran deeper into the cave. The cave was winding, and they didn't know where it led to, so they could only hope to find another exit.

"Battalion Commander, where are we going?" Li Dazhuang asked breathlessly, the fat on his body trembling as he ran.

"Stop talking nonsense! Just follow me!" Zhang Ling cursed angrily, but he was also very nervous. The devil came here strangely, could it be... coming for the gold?

They ran for a distance and came to a fork in the road. Zhang Ling hesitated for a moment and chose a passage that looked narrower.

"Battalion Commander, is this road... feasible?" Xu Erniu looked doubtful.

"We have to go whether we can or not! It's better than falling into the hands of the Japanese!" Zhang Ling's tone was firm and no one could question it.

The passage became narrower and narrower, until only one person could pass through sideways. The air became humid, and a rotten smell filled the air, making people nauseous.

"Damn, what's that smell? It's suffocating me!" Li Dazhuang complained, covering his nose.

"Shut up!" Zhang Ling said in a low voice, "Do you want to attract the devils?"

Suddenly, Zhang Ling, who was walking in front, stopped.

"What's wrong, battalion commander?" Xu Erniu asked.

Zhang Ling didn't say anything, but turned around slowly, his face pale, and pointed forward.

Xu Erniu and Li Dazhuang looked in the direction of Zhang Ling's finger and were immediately frightened out of their wits.

At the end of the passage, there were rotting corpses!

These corpses were wearing tattered military uniforms. Some had turned to bones, while others still had rotten flesh left on them. Maggots were crawling on them, making creepy sounds.

"I... fuck..." Li Dazhuang was so scared that he collapsed on the ground, his face uglier than a dead person.

"This...what's going on?" Xu Erniu asked tremblingly.

Zhang Ling took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He carefully observed the corpses and found that their uniforms were very old and seemed... not like modern troops.

"These... seem to be... ancient soldiers..." Zhang Ling's tone was a little uncertain.

"Ancient soldiers? How is that possible?" Xu Erniu was full of confusion.

At this moment, Zhang Ling suddenly noticed that there was a stone tablet in the center of the pile of corpses.

He walked over carefully and wiped the dust off the stone tablet with his hand, and a line of words gradually appeared.

"Ming Dynasty...Yongle...Funeral Pit..."

Zhang Ling read it out word by word, and his face became even paler.

Burial pit!

They actually entered an ancient burial pit by mistake!

"Battalion...Battalion Commander...What...what should we do?" Xu Erniu's voice trembled.

Zhang Ling didn't say anything, his mind was blank. He knew that they were in a desperate situation.

There were dead ends in front and behind them, and they were trapped in this burial pit filled with the breath of death.

Just then, there was a noisy sound of footsteps coming from the entrance of the cave, accompanied by the chattering shouts of the Japs.

"They are chasing us!" Li Dazhuang shouted in horror.

Zhang Ling suddenly came to his senses and realized that they had no time left.

He looked around and his eyes fell on a huge bronze coffin in the center of the burial pit.

This coffin is carved with exquisite patterns and it is obvious that it is not an ordinary item.

"Let's fight!" Zhang Ling gritted his teeth and pushed open the lid of the coffin.

A rotten smell blew towards him, choking Zhang Ling so much that he almost passed out.

He shone the flashlight inside the coffin and saw a dried corpse wearing a dragon robe lying inside.

The mummy was wearing a golden mask on its face, which looked lifelike, as if it would open its eyes at any time.

Zhang Ling's eyes fell on a jade ring on the mummy's hand.

This jade ring is emerald green all over and emits a bright light. It is obvious at first glance that it is not an ordinary item.

Zhang Ling's heart moved, and he reached out to take off the jade ring.

The moment he touched the jade ring, a strange energy surged into his body.

Zhang Ling felt dizzy, his eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness...

When he woke up again, he found himself in an unfamiliar environment.

He looked around and found himself... in an ancient palace!

And the clothes on his body also turned into... a dragon robe!

The gunshot suddenly exploded, echoing in the claustrophobic arsenal, making people's eardrums buzz. Wang Hu didn't even have time to scream before he fell straight down, blood and brain matter splattered all over Zhang Ling's face.

Zhang Ling was stunned. He didn't expect things to develop to this point. He just wanted to force Wang Hu to admit that he wanted to take the gold for himself, but now, Wang Hu is dead.

Xu Erniu and Li Dazhuang were also frightened. They stood there blankly, looking at Wang Hu lying in a pool of blood, trembling all over.

"Who? Who fired the gun?" Zhang Ling wiped the blood off his face and shouted sternly.

At the entrance of the cave, a soldier in Kuomintang uniform poked his head out, holding a smoking rifle in his hand.

"Sir, there's something going on outside!" the soldier shouted in panic.

Zhang Ling's heart sank suddenly, he knew that something was wrong.

"what's the situation?"

"The devils...the devils are coming!"

Zhang Ling cursed inwardly, "Fuck it!" It was really like adding insult to injury.

"How many devils are there?"

"I don't know, a lot!"

Zhang Ling took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. "Erniu, Dazhuang, bring your weapons and prepare for battle!"

Xu Erniu and Li Dazhuang finally reacted, quickly picked up their weapons, hid behind the weapon boxes, and stared at the cave entrance nervously.

Zhang Ling walked to Wang Hu's body, bent down, searched him for an exquisite Browning pistol, and put it on his waist. He also picked up two gold bars and stuffed them into his pocket. "You got a bargain, Wang Hu." He whispered.

The gunshots became more and more frequent, and it was obvious that the Japanese had already attacked.

"Battalion Commander, what should we do?" Xu Erniu's voice trembled a little.

"What else can we do? Fight the Japanese!" Zhang Ling said gritting his teeth.

At the entrance of the cave, the resistance of the Kuomintang soldiers became weaker and weaker, and soon, several Japanese soldiers rushed in.

"Kill!" Zhang Ling roared and fired the first shot.

"Bang, bang, bang..." The sound of gunfire echoed in the armory and flames flashed.

Zhang Ling used his accurate shooting skills to kill several Japanese soldiers. Xu Erniu and Li Dazhuang also fought hard, but as the number of Japanese soldiers increased, they gradually became unable to resist.

"Battalion Commander, we can't hold on any longer!" Li Dazhuang shouted. He had been shot in the arm and blood was flowing out.

Zhang Ling glanced around and realized that they had little ammunition left. If they continued like this, they would be wiped out by the Japanese sooner or later.

"Retreat! Retreat!" Zhang Ling made a prompt decision and ordered a retreat.

They fought and retreated, using the complex terrain in the arsenal to deal with the Japanese.

"Damn, how did these Japs know this place?" Xu Erniu cursed while shooting.

Zhang Ling did not speak, he was also thinking about this question. The location of this arsenal was very hidden, and no one knew about it except the three of them. Could it be...

Zhang Ling suddenly thought of the traitor who informed on the matter. Could it be that he was the one who leaked the information to the Japanese?

Thinking of this, Zhang Ling was furious. He swore that if he knew who betrayed them, he would tear the traitor into pieces!

They retreated deeper into the armory, where there was a narrow passage leading to the back hill.

"Go from here!" Zhang Ling said, pointing to the passage.

The three of them entered the passage and groped their way forward in the darkness.

"Battalion Commander, can we escape?" Xu Erniu's voice was full of despair.

"I definitely can!" Zhang Ling said firmly, although he himself was not sure.

The passage was long and dark. They didn't know how long they had walked before they finally saw a ray of light.

"Exit!" Li Dazhuang shouted in surprise.

They quickened their pace and rushed out of the passage.

The view suddenly opened up and they came to a dense forest.

"We are saved!" Xu Erniu said excitedly.

"Don't be too happy too soon!" Zhang Ling reminded, "The Japanese will catch up soon, we must leave here as soon as possible."

They didn't dare to stop and continued running deeper into the woods.

Just then, they heard a dog barking behind them.

"Oh no, the Japanese brought military dogs!" Zhang Ling's face changed.

They quickened their speed and ran as fast as they could. The barking of dogs behind them was getting closer and closer...

Suddenly, Zhang Ling slipped and fell to the ground.

"Battalion Commander!" Xu Erniu and Li Dazhuang hurriedly stopped and wanted to help Zhang Ling up.

"Don't worry about me, just leave!" Zhang Ling pushed them away and shouted anxiously, "I'll hold the devils back, you leave quickly!"

"But..." Xu Erniu and Li Dazhuang hesitated.

"Go!" Zhang Ling roared, "This is an order!"
