"Crash..." A Qin Army soldier cautiously pushed open the heavy door and stepped into the first-floor lobby of the restored power at the Supreme Command.
Debris was scattered everywhere as the Tang Army's helicopter had just strafed this building with its machine guns, leaving the inside in complete disarray, with broken items everywhere.
Several bullet holes adorned the portrait of Emperor Qin Ying Duo hanging on the wall, which had dropped onto the floor below, next to the corpse of a guard with a twisted neck.
Bodies lay strewn across the floor chaotically; the face of an officer hanging on the stairs bore nearly dried bloodstains, while shoeprints on a candle below caught the attention of the Qin Army officer following behind the soldier into the place.
The soleprints did not match those of the Qin Army. He picked up a bullet casing from the ground, inspecting it closely; it was finely crafted and clearly not the usual 7.62mm caliber rifle bullets used by the Tang Army.
