Chapter 119 After the Communication Channel Was Reconnected

After Yuan Biao reconnected with the communication channel of the opposing garrison brigade's officers, he learned the details of his mission and immediately led his team to Dongma Road, nearby on the left.

Along the way, they tried to merge with the inner lines several times, but were stopped and driven away by the garrison brigade soldiers stationed there. Obviously, the other side no longer trusted any Chinese armed forces.

After arriving at Dongma Road, Yuan Biao ordered his men to take positions there one after another. This place had not yet been attacked by the Renmin Army, so they didn't need to pretend to shoot; they just needed to guard the area.

At this moment, inside an alley on Dongma Road, a group of people were urgently discussing.

Yu Mingyuan looked at Yuan Biao and asked, "Lu Zhen should have left, right?"

"Yes," Yuan Biao nodded and said, "I specifically asked the garrison brigade officer that question just now to test whether Lu Zhen had left or not. Now it seems he should have left alone."

Qiu Ge immediately added, "If Lu Zhen isn't here, it will be difficult for us to get close to the central area. You saw just now that our soldiers can't get close, so there's no way to figure out the foreign minister's exact location."

Hearing this, a young man next to him couldn't help but say, "Look, would this work? We only send a few soldiers to sneak in, using micro-drones, to try to find the foreign minister's location."

Yuan Biao immediately waved his hand and said, "No, that method is too risky! Once our people leave their assigned area and are discovered inside, something will definitely happen. Secondly, we shouldn't act rashly now; after all, we only have so few people. Even if you run into the foreign minister in the central area, you won't be able to catch him."

Qiu Ge paused for a moment, then suddenly said, "In that case, why not try the process of elimination?"

"Great! You're on the same wavelength as me!" Yuan Biao snapped his fingers, then looked at Yu Mingyuan and said, "You go contact the Renmin Army forces immediately and tell them this…"

The group discussed for about half a minute and finalized the new plan.

Yu Mingyuan went to contact the Renmin Army, while Yuan Biao dialed Xiao Yan's phone.

…

Near the Hantang Street district, in a dilapidated courtyard.

Lu Zhen, wearing the uniform of the guard regiment, sat in the house in the courtyard, smoking a cigarette with his head down. He had dismissed most of the guard regiment, leaving only a dozen of his most trusted guards by his side. All of their communicators were turned off.

His plan was to have Yuan Biao monitor the foreign minister's movements while also protecting the foreign minister's safety as much as possible. He, on the other hand, needed to leave this war zone as soon as possible. With Commander Wang dead, there was no need for him to risk his life any further.

At this time, with multiple departments working together and strange things happening frequently, Lu Zhen no longer trusted any of the outer members, including Yuan Biao. He had kept his own withdrawal plan secret from the Special Operations Team One and hadn't used any of their people.

Even the Qingyi Bureau had been abandoned by Lu Zhen.

At this moment, the only people he could trust were the guards from the guard company who were closest to Commander Wang. He was staying here to wait for them to come and meet him, then leave disguised as ordinary soldiers.

He took a deep drag on his cigarette, his mind constantly replaying what the chief of staff had said earlier. The more he thought about it, the more frustrated he became, and his chest felt heavy. After thinking for a long time, he turned to his assistant and said, "Ask them where the guard company is."

The assistant immediately said, "Okay, I'll go urge them."

"Go quickly."

…

At the same time, a sound of footsteps came from outside the courtyard gate.

The soldier guarding the gate heard the sound and immediately looked into the distance, seeing about twenty soldiers wearing the uniforms of the guard regiment walking over from across the street. He exchanged a look with his companion, immediately raised his gun, and asked the approaching group, "Who's there?"

The other side immediately shouted back, "We're Commander Wang's guard company! Higher-ups sent us to meet you!"

Hearing this, the two soldiers relaxed a little. One of the soldiers then asked, "Password?"

As soon as the words fell, three of Yuan Biao's brothers, wearing the uniforms of the guard regiment, hunched over and quietly waved their hands in the distance.

Across the street, in an alley, a figure quietly set up an RPG.

Seeing this, Yuan Biao's three brothers silently dispersed.

Inside the courtyard, the soldier guarding the gate saw that the other side hadn't answered and shouted again, "Password?!"

Outside, a cold voice rang out, "To kill you!"

The soldier was stunned.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, a missile flew over with a tail of flames, landing at the feet of the two men in the blink of an eye!

"Boom!"

The courtyard wall collapsed with a crash, and billowing smoke soared into the sky! The bodies of the two soldiers were torn apart by the blast wave, and their remains were scattered everywhere.

Inside the house, Lu Zhen suddenly turned around, looked outside, and hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"

"Enemy attack! We need to leave!" The assistant hurriedly pulled Lu Zhen up, wanting to run towards the back door. Several guards, holding guns, went to the back door first to scout.

"Da da da!"

At this moment, the sound of two light machine guns suddenly came from the direction of the back door!

A large number of bullets rained down, instantly piercing the back door and windows, sweeping into the house!

"Puff puff puff!"

Balls of blood mist exploded, and four guards were riddled with bullets and fell to the ground. The surrounding walls were constantly blasted with dust, leaving behind bullet holes!

"Clang!"

Immediately afterwards, six or seven stun grenades flew in through the shattered windows and landed on the ground.

"Secretary-General!"

Before Lu Zhen could react, he was heavily pushed to the ground.

"Boom boom boom!"

A series of violent explosions rang out, and everyone in the small room was knocked to the ground!

"Bang bang bang!"

Immediately afterwards, the sound of a sniper rifle rang out outside, and the remaining guards were also picked off one by one, falling to the ground in succession.

"Buzz…"

Lu Zhen shook his dizzy head, his vision still blurry. He looked at the messy room, corpses everywhere, his face pale, and he was still a little dazed.

Soon, he regained some consciousness and felt a heavy weight on his body. Only then did he realize that it was the assistant who had protected him. But the latter's back had been blown to pieces, he was breathing more out than in, and he was already dying.

Lu Zhen pushed him away, picked up a gun from the ground, and tried to suppress the fear in his heart as he gasped for breath, trying to escape from here.

"Bang!"

At this moment, the front and back doors were kicked open, and figures holding guns rushed in, shouting at him, "Don't move!"

Lu Zhen turned his head and looked around, finding that twenty or so people wearing guard regiment uniforms had surrounded him. He slowly lowered his pistol, raised his hands, but suddenly realized that he had seen three of these people before…

Lu Zhen's head buzzed, and he subconsciously asked, "You… are you Yuan Biao's people?"

The crowd looked at him expressionlessly, without answering.

"Clap clap clap…"

At this moment, a sound of footsteps rang out next to him, followed by a woman's voice, "They are my people now."

Hearing this familiar voice, Lu Zhen's heart pounded, and he suddenly turned his head to look, finding that a dozen soldiers were protecting a woman as she walked in. The woman was wearing comfortable sportswear, her hair tied up, holding a pistol in her hand, and she came to stand in front of him in a few steps.

Lu Zhen looked at her in disbelief and asked in a hoarse voice, "Xiao Yan??"

Xiao Yan looked at him up close and asked in a calm tone, "Are you surprised?"

Lu Zhen's pupils trembled as he pointed at her, "You…"

Xiao Yan nodded slightly, "Yes, I'm here to kill you."

Hearing this, Lu Zhen instantly understood many things. But he quickly shook his head, shouting somewhat hysterically, "Impossible! I know Yuan Biao, he would never betray me because of you!! He has so many brothers…!"

Xiao Yan stared at him, "There's another thing you don't know. Last time, when he assassinated Tan Hengqiang, besides the mission failing, those brothers of his who you reported as dead were actually captured, including him."

Lu Zhen's breathing became rapid, sweat poured down his forehead, and he felt dizzy! He had always been known for his scheming, but at this moment, he felt that everything was out of his control!

Xiao Yan looked at him and continued to ask, piercingly, "Do you think you're very smart? Do you think you can foresee everything? Let me tell you another piece of news. Your younger brother isn't dead. He's the one who told Gu Baisun about me and Yuan Biao. You thought you were framing Gu Baisun, but he was just going along with it, acting for you. From the moment you told me that I not only had to sleep with Yuan Biao, but also had to go with him, I had already contacted Gu Baisun…"

Lu Zhen clutched his chest, feeling a little difficulty breathing, as if someone had thrown another stun grenade at him.

A hint of a smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Yan's mouth as she stared at him and said, "I've been enduring until now just to kill you!!"

Lu Zhen was silent for a long time, clenched his fists, looked up at her, and squeezed out two words from his throat, "Xiao Yan…"

Xiao Yan said with a smile, "Do you want to beg me? Then kneel down, and I'll let you go. I just want you to be like a dog, lying in front of me!"

Lu Zhen hesitated for three seconds, the veins on his forehead popping out, but he still knelt on the ground with a thud and begged, "Xiao Yan, I was wrong, please… I…………"

Xiao Yan smiled even more happily. She lowered her head and said, word by word, "Hehe, do you know what the most satisfying thing in life is? It's watching the person you hate the most kneeling in front of you, begging you bitterly, but you still have to kill him! Why? Because I spent ten whole years of my youth on you! From the moment I met you, I was living for you, fighting for you! But you ruined all my ideals, completely collapsed my life, and turned me into a madman! So, you must die!"

As she spoke, Xiao Yan raised her pistol and aimed it at Lu Zhen.

Facing the dark muzzle of the gun, Lu Zhen's pupils dilated, his mind almost collapsing, and he cried out almost instinctively, "Xiao Yan! Xiao Yan, I was wrong! For the sake of our past feelings, give me another chance…!"

"Hehe… the more you mention past feelings, the more you must die." Xiao Yan smiled like a flower, holding the pistol with both hands and replying, "It's all over!"

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out, blood mist exploded on Lu Zhen's chest, his body flew out, slammed heavily on the ground, and convulsed all over.

He never dreamed that he would leave this world in such a way. He didn't even know how Xiao Yan had located him.

Unfortunately, he would never know.

Xiao Yan's hands trembled, and she watched Lu Zhen die, breathing heavily for a long time. At this moment, all the emotions she had suppressed in her heart were released with the gunshot.

After a while, Xiao Yan gradually calmed down, turned to the person next to her, and said, "Old Wang is dead. Many people are looking for a way out. Transfer the money to the account of that person in the guard company. It may be useful in the future…!"

The other person nodded, "Understood."

After giving her instructions, Xiao Yan turned and left, dialed Yuan Biao's number, and said softly to him, "Lu Zhen is dead. I'm finished here."

Yuan Biao was silent for a long time, then said to her, "Let my brothers take you away. The farther you go, the better. I'll contact you when I get out."

Xiao Yan paused for a moment, then said coldly, "Okay."
