Zhou Youchen led a dozen policemen and drove fast on the winding and rugged mountain road. Outside the car window, the mountain and forest scenery passed by quickly like a phantom. Finally, they arrived at the Taoist temple on Linjiang Mountain.
The Taoist temple is located deep in the mountains not far from Linjiang River. It is surrounded by dense trees and is eerily quiet.
Zhou Youchen and his group parked the car far away, and everyone got out and walked to the Taoist temple.
He looked at the slightly dilapidated building with sharp eyes.
The temple has become dilapidated due to the erosion of time. The painted decorations on the eaves and brackets are mottled and some of the tiles have fallen off, revealing the rotten wooden structure underneath.
The gate of the Taoist temple was half-open, with a faint ray of light peeking through the crack.
놛 raised his hand to signal the police officers to stay alert. The police officers took out their rifles from the car, checked the ammunition, and approached the temple cautiously.
The moment they stepped into the Taoist temple, Zhou Youchen noticed that the ground in the yard had obvious signs of being turned over, with some debris scattered all over the ground, as if it had just been hastily tidied up.
Moreover, according to common sense, the Taoist temple should be filled with the scent of incense, but at this moment, there is a faint smell of motor oil in the air, which further confirms the suspicion in my heart - the arms are hidden nearby.
The number of enemies on the other side is unknown, and who knows how many enemies are hiding in the dark. If we search recklessly, the dozen or so people on our side are likely to be in danger.
Zhou Youchen looked around and found several piles of dry firewood in the corner of the Taoist temple. They were used by the Taoists in Pingli Taoist Temple to make fire and cook.
After thinking for a moment, I came up with a plan.
He explained the plan to the police, and they understood and quickly ignited firewood in several flammable corners of the Taoist temple.
The fire spread rapidly and soon reached the wooden buildings of the Taoist temple. The crackling sound of the burning was particularly loud in the silent forest.
After a while, there was a noisy sound in the Taoist temple, and people who had been hiding in the dark appeared one after another and ran towards one place.
Upon seeing this, Zhou Youchen mouthed the words "Action!" to the police officers and led them to chase after them quietly.
Sure enough, they found a large amount of arms in a hidden cave behind the Taoist temple.
At the entrance of the cave, there were some shabby wooden boxes with some vague foreign language labels on them. There were also some tools scattered around, which were obviously used to transport and hide arms.
At the same time, the enemy in the cave also discovered them, and the two sides instantly fell into a fierce gun battle.
The cave was dark and gloomy, filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder.
Zhou Youchen quickly observed the terrain and found some natural boulders and stone pillars in the cave, which could be used as shelters.
놛 made a decision immediately and ordered the police officers to disperse and use the terrain advantages to encircle the enemy.
"Everyone, listen up. Form a team of two, take turns to cover each other and move forward. Use the rocks as cover and don't shoot blindly!"
놛놅's voice was firm and powerful, echoing in the cave.
The enemy's firepower was extremely fierce. Bullets flew like raindrops, constantly hitting the stones, splashing sparks.
Zhou Youchen hunched over and quickly moved behind a huge rock. He could feel the cold rock against his back, and the chill seeped into his bones through his police uniform.
He raised the muzzle rifle in his hand, aimed at an exposed enemy, and pulled the trigger decisively. With a "bang", the enemy fell down.
However, the enemy outnumbered the police, and they were gradually outnumbered.
We must find a way to delay time and wait for reinforcements.
Suddenly, he shouted to Xiao Zhang beside him: "Xiao Zhang, take a few people and go around the left side of the cave to create some noise and attract the enemy's firepower. I will lead others to encircle us from the right side!"
Xiao Zhang nodded and took the order, then quickly moved to the left with three police officers.
As expected, the enemy was attracted by the movement from the left, and began to direct their fire in that direction.
Zhou Youchen seized the opportunity and led the remaining police officers to attack from the right.
They fired and slowly narrowed the encirclement.
The sound of gunfire in the cave was deafening, and every gunshot was accompanied by screams from the enemy or the police.
The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder and blood, which almost suffocated people.
Just when the situation became increasingly critical, suddenly, a burst of intensive gunfire came from behind the enemy.
The military finally arrived!!!
Zhou Youchen turned around and looked...
A dozen men in linen clothes, like a pair of sharp pliers, tightly clamped the enemy's retreat.
They were strong and agile, and the guns in their hands flashed a cold light in the afterglow of the setting sun.
The leader was Mu Sheng, who had met him once outside the police station.
He had an upright posture, and his cold eyes revealed a frightening power.
Mu Sheng's eyes swept across the battlefield, as if he could see through the enemy's every intention. He held the gun steadily in his hand, and as his arm swung, the muzzle of the gun pointed accurately at each enemy. He pulled the trigger as fast as lightning, and each gunshot was accompanied by the enemy's screams. His shooting was fast, fierce and accurate, which was amazing.
The two sides responded from inside and outside, and the fierce gunshots and shouts intertwined together, making people's eardrums hurt.
The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder, so pungent that it made people cough. Every time Zhou Youchen took a breath, he felt his throat being burned by the pungent breath.
Sweat kept rolling down 놛놅's forehead and cheeks, and was instantly absorbed by the dust when it dripped onto the ground.
Finally, in this tense and fierce battle, they waited for the military.
The sound of the orderly footsteps approached from afar, like rumbling thunder, announcing that the situation was about to turn around.
The military soldiers were dressed in uniform, their steps were firm, and the weapons in their hands gleamed coldly in the sun.
They quickly stepped up the fight, and with their well-trained tactics and powerful firepower, they quickly controlled all the enemies.
The battlefield gradually became quiet, with only the groans of the wounded and the rustling of the breeze through the forest.
"Thank you." Zhou Youchen let out a long sigh, the tension and fatigue in his heart slightly relieved, and walked up to Mu Sheng to express his sincere gratitude.
At this time, Mu Sheng was leaning over to check on his men's injuries, his brows furrowed, his eyes full of concern.
After hearing Zhou Youchen's words, he said without raising his head: "I was just entrusted by someone." His voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of fatigue.
After saying that, he immediately turned around and walked out of the cave with hurried steps, as if something important was waiting for him.
Zhou Youchen's heart moved, and he quickly followed and asked anxiously: "Is Su Jinyu here?"
Mu Sheng paused for a moment and replied in a low voice, "Yeah."
There was a barely perceptible hint of sadness in his voice, and the image of Su Jinyu running towards the cave recklessly emerged in his mind. If it weren't for her, he would not have waded through this muddy water himself.
"Where is she?" Zhou Youchen looked around, anxiously searching for the familiar figure.
Mu Sheng's face was gloomy and ugly, and he said in a cold tone: "Hide outside."
Zhou Youchen's heart sank suddenly, and a bad premonition came to his mind.
