Hao Jianhua couldn't help but exclaim, "You know what, I think this guy actually seems pretty decent?"

He's usually incredibly timid, but I never expected him to actually come in handy at a crucial moment.

"Just watch." Lin Beichen wasn't happy; instead, he was worried. He dared not be excited at all until his brothers were rescued.

The man's hand was about to touch the door lock. At the critical moment, a familiar voice suddenly rang in his ears.

What are you doing here?

Turning around abruptly, the man looked embarrassed. Lin Beichen and Hao Jianhua, sensing trouble, quickly put on uniforms they'd smuggled from another military camp. Pretending to be subordinates, they respectfully approached their leader.

The man tensed instantly. He knew that Lin Beichen and Hao Jianhua were warning him not to say anything carelessly.

"I just came to take a look..." the man said, casually putting the keys back. He dared not say or do anything now.

"Really?" The leader squinted, sizing up Lin Beichen and Hao Jianhua. Although they were wearing thick helmets, he could still tell who they were at a glance. He hadn't expected them to have gotten their hands on this place...

Thinking of this, the leader gave a cold laugh.

"I was just thinking of releasing these people."

With that, the boss threw the keys directly to Lin Beichen.

"Open the door for me."

……

Hao Jianhua was stunned. What did this boss mean? Had he already seen through their identities?

Lin Beichen dared not look up, afraid of giving himself away. The only saving grace was the thick mesh covering their helmets. Unless one was particularly observant, the camouflage shouldn't be noticeable.

But Lin Beichen clearly underestimated this boss. He'd been around here for so many years; surely he could see through this little bit of pretense?
Just as Lin Beichen was about to open the door, he inadvertently glanced at the boss's hand. The gun in the boss's hand was already cocked. Clearly, the boss had discovered Lin Beichen and his group's identities.

"Damn it..." Lin Beichen cursed inwardly in exasperation. He had almost rescued his brothers, but he never expected this to happen.

Clenching his fists tightly, Lin Beichen was ready to continue the fight. At the critical moment, the leader suddenly kicked open the cage door. He appeared out of nowhere next to Fatty Wang, grabbed him, and then gave a cold laugh.

"Don't you care about the lives of your brothers?"

Only then did Fatty Wang recognize Lin Beichen. He struggled desperately, but the boss's strength was astonishing.

"You guys are really something, you actually managed to sneak into my headquarters."

The man next to him suddenly collapsed to his knees, crying as he knelt down.

"It wasn't my idea to bring them here, they forced me to come..."

The man was crying uncontrollably, but the boss completely ignored him.

Lin Beichen held a pistol in his hand. The gang leader smiled coldly.

"If you dare to fire, I'll kill everyone here. But if you put down your guns, maybe I can spare their lives..."

After a moment's thought, Lin Beichen simply threw the gun away. Hao Jianhua had no choice but to throw the gun he was holding far away as well.

The two were forced to surrender and were locked in that cage together.

This time, the boss smiled and sent even more guards.

"An overconfident fool."

Before leaving, the eldest brother gave Lin Beichen a smug smile.

"Now we've wiped them all out. I'd like to see who you can pin your hopes on now."

Lin Beichen remained silent.

The bodyguards around him were no ordinary people.

These people have spent years in war-torn regions and are very familiar with firearms and weapons.

If anyone makes a rash move, they could very well open fire and kill them.

Hao Jianhua quietly approached Lin Beichen and muttered a curse under his breath.

"What's there to be afraid of with these few bastards? Let's just charge out and fight them to the death."

Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Tian angrily retorted.

Do you think everyone here is as brainless as you?

Zhao Tian and Fatty Wang were also arrested.

They had intended to complete their mission properly, but unexpectedly a large group of people suddenly appeared around them.

Without saying a word, those people came up and kidnapped them.

At first, they thought they were local residents and were going to treat them politely.

But even after being locked in this big cage, the other party showed no sign of being polite.

With Lin Beichen joining the group, everyone felt their hopes were even slimmer.

"What do we do? Does the headquarters know we're being held here?"

Lin Beichen shook his head.

The headquarters only knew that they had lost contact and the signal was gone, but they didn't know that they were being held here.

"What should we do then?"

When Lin Beichen shook his head, the people around him immediately panicked.

The crowd began to stir.

The guards knocked on the cage.

"All of you, shut up! If anyone dares to say another word, I'll kill him."

No wonder he's someone who's spent so much time in war-torn regions.

Even the tone of his voice carried a murderous intent.

Upon hearing this sound, everyone gasped in shock.

No one dared to utter a sound at this moment.

"Everyone, please don't panic."

Lin Beichen secretly communicated with them using the sign language used in the military.

"Don't provoke these people yet."

"They're all a bunch of lunatics; if you push them too far, you'll regret it."

"We'll think of another way once they lower their guard."

Even the fiercest tiger has its moments of weakness.

Besides, these people aren't made of iron; how can they not sleep?

As expected, those people started to feel sleepy around midnight.

Seeing that they had lowered their guard, Lin Beichen took the initiative to discuss the matter with Hao Jianhua and Zhao Tian.

"We definitely can't escape on our own; we have to contact headquarters."

But that's precisely where the difficulty lies.

How can I get in touch with headquarters?
All his equipment was taken away, including his signal flares.

Cell phones and other valuables were confiscated, and no clues could be found at all.

"Then what else can we do?"

Hao Jianhua has always been stubborn and headstrong.

He's furious right now, and he keeps cursing and swearing.

"What else can we do?"

"I don't care, I'd rather die than go back there."

Just as these people were having a heated discussion, a guard next to them was woken up by the noise.

"What are you muttering about?"

He banged hard on the cage.

"You lot don't want to live anymore, do you?"

"Stop chattering away here, are you out of your mind?"

Upon hearing this, everyone could only helplessly purse their lips.

What else can you do when you're living under someone else's roof?
If you really anger these people, you won't even know how you died.

Because they weren't allowed to speak, they could only discuss things in hushed tones.

Lin Beichen was very familiar with the local terrain, so he devised a plan.

"Let's pretend someone is sick to lure them in, then rush out."

Zhao Tian disagreed.

"This will only arouse their suspicion, and they won't be lenient with us."

"They'll be asleep at night, so we can just hook the key over there."

Although the local terrain was complex, it provided them with cover.

Under Lin Beichen's plan, they quickly finalized a series of arrangements.

The night grew deeper.

After the people around him fell asleep, Lin Beichen quietly hooked the key from the person closest to him.

I thought it would be complicated, but everything went smoothly.

After easily obtaining the key, Lin Beichen successfully opened the cage door.

His men were already well-trained.

That's why they were able to get away so easily now.

As they passed the sleeping men, Lin Beichen gave an order, and they were instantly knocked unconscious. "Brothers, quickly remove all their weapons."

As Lin Beichen spoke, he unhooked a gun from the person next to him.

These weapons all looked very strange; Lin Beichen had never seen them before.

But whatever the weapon, it's better than them being empty-handed.

Fatty Wang was not to be outdone.

He disarmed both of them in one fell swoop.

"Damn it, why do these guns look so weird?"

As he spoke, Fatty Wang fiddled with the rifle in his hand.

This thing looks pretty advanced.

Unlike the rifles they used before, this one doesn't even have a button.

How do you use this thing?

Fatty Wang glanced at Lin Beichen beside him.

Lin Beichen didn't know how to use this thing either.

But no matter what, he had to give it a try first.

"You absolutely mustn't move around."

Seeing Wang Pangzi's dangerous actions, Lin Beichen cursed at him.

"If things go wrong, we'll all be finished..."

Fatty Wang scoffed dismissively.

It's just a weapon, right? How could he not know how to use it?
Besides, it's not like it's his first time handling a gun.

If things really escalate into a fight, wouldn't that be a slap in his own face?
"What's the big deal?"

Fatty Wang shook his head helplessly.

"It's just a weapon, right? Do you think I don't know how to use it?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the gun in his hand suddenly exploded with a loud bang.

The sound was extremely loud.

Moreover, the recoil of this gun is frighteningly strong.

With just one shot, the big guy Wang Pangzi was so shocked that he squatted down on the ground.

Everyone looked up at the same time.

The gunshot woke the guards, and Lin Beichen kicked Wang Pangzi.

"What the hell did I tell you?"

He truly didn't expect that Fatty Wang would actually cause an accidental escalation of the conflict.

"Didn't I tell you to be careful? Now look what's happened, how are we supposed to run away?"

The surrounding guards moved at the sound.

They were unfamiliar with these weapons to begin with, and now they had nowhere to hide.

Fatty Wang also got up, looking aggrieved.

He believed he had seen many weapons and would surely be able to figure them out.

But to my utter surprise, this thing turned out to be so difficult to deal with.

"I didn't do it on purpose."

As he spoke, Fatty Wang picked up the equipment that had fallen to the side.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's get out of here first!"

Everyone in the vicinity mobilized.

If they start fighting amongst themselves here, they're definitely doomed.

Lin Beichen rolled his eyes.

What can he say now?
What else can he say?

This has attracted so many soldiers, how do they think they can escape?

"You wait, I'll settle the score with you when we get back."

After saying this, Lin Beichen raised his arm and waved it.

"Everyone, follow me. There's a raised earthen slope ahead that can be used for cover."

That small hill in front should be able to stop them.

Upon hearing this, everyone around Lin Beichen ran in that direction.

Hao Jianhua kept complaining as he ran.

"What did you do? How did things get so badly out of control?"

That is, their own people.

If he really hurts someone, Fatty Wang would be in big trouble.

Fatty Wang almost burst into tears.

He also felt ashamed.

Having served in the military for so many years, I never expected to accidentally fire a gun at such a crucial moment.

Moreover, just a second after Lin Beichen finished his reminder, a deafening noise erupted from his place.

"Let's go!"

Fatty Wang blushed deeply with embarrassment.

"At worst, I'll just throw my life away here today. Let's get out of here."

Lin Beichen had no time to pay him any attention.

More and more people were chasing after him.

If they continue this pursuit, they could very well find themselves in even greater danger.

Seeing that there was no way to escape, Lin Beichen had no choice but to turn around.

"There's no road ahead. They want to fight, right? Then let's fight them."

Lin Beichen looked back at the terrain.

The terrain here is quite advantageous.

With this kind of terrain, there shouldn't be any major problems going forward.

"Brothers, hurry up and climb over that little hill."

That place is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

They at least had weapons, and each of them had figured out how to use them.

The group of people rushed towards the small earthen mound in an instant.

"Everyone, get down on your knees."

Lin Beichen gave the order, his mind exceptionally clear at that moment.

He dared not say anything else, but there was one thing he was very certain of.

I'm sure I can win this time.

The terrain where he was located was excellent; it was the kind of place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack.

After a while, he finally figured out the surrounding terrain.

Moreover, under Lin Beichen's leadership, they quickly repelled the enemy.

Those people crouched on the ground, heads in their hands, with nowhere to escape.

"Weren't you all pretty arrogant before? Why aren't you so arrogant now?"

Fatty Wang ran excitedly to the captured personnel.

Ultimately, these people were no match for the well-trained men under Lin Beichen.

It's important to know that Lin Beichen and his comrades had trained in the military for so long, so their overall quality was naturally much higher.

Although these people in front of me know the local terrain like the back of their hand, they haven't received any proper professional training.

If it weren't for this reason, Lin Beichen wouldn't have been able to defeat them so easily.

"You have the nerve to say that?"

Seeing Wang Pangzi's smug look, Lin Beichen raised his hand and slapped him on the back of the head.

"If you hadn't accidentally discharged the gun and made a scene, would we be here fighting them head-on?"

To put it bluntly, these people have no one to lead or command them.

If their older brother were to return at this time, wouldn't Lin Beichen's side be at a great disadvantage?
Fatty Wang was still stubbornly refusing to admit defeat.

"We're not exactly weaker than them, so why should we back down?"

Why should we admit defeat?

What's there to argue about?
"You're still not convinced, are you?"

Lin Beichen wanted to beat up Fatty Wang again.

At this critical moment, Hao Jianhua and Zhao Tian quickly stepped forward to stop them.

"Alright, alright, let's get out of here quickly." (End of Chapter)
