Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 581 Two-Person Tactics

Ye Shaohong had already anticipated that the enemy possessed heavy weaponry, even without Yan Shuangying's reminder.

This is not a conjecture that came out of thin air.

There is also factual basis for this.

the reason is simple.

The last time "Grey Wolf" sent people to assassinate him, he dispatched quite a few people.

But in the end, they all died at Ye Shaohong's hands.

It caused quite a stir at the time.

After Ye Shaohong safely returned to the Special Service Headquarters, the news had already spread. At that time, "Grey Wolf" Mitsui Meitaro was still hiding by Zheng Jiemin's side. Given his status and position, it would have been very easy for him to find out the specific details of what happened.

This also made "Grey Wolf" realize one thing.

That's Ye Shaohong's skill and combat prowess; even within the entire Special Service Department, he's an extremely rare powerhouse.

Having learned his lesson and been tricked once, how could he not be prepared to attack Ye Shaohong again today?

Even with a sufficient number of people, he couldn't feel at ease.

To increase the success rate of the assassination, he would definitely rethink the timing, location, personnel, and equipment for the operation.

Regarding the time and place, Mitsui Meitaro gave up after just thinking about it.

I am in Nanjing.

Located in the heart of the Nationalist government, Ye Shaohong had ample backup manpower, giving him a natural advantage that Mitsui Meitaro couldn't possibly strategize or plan. Therefore, the only things he could change were his personnel and equipment.

Increasing manpower and deploying heavy firepower became Mitsui Meitaro's only option.

In fact, that's exactly what Mitsui Meitaro did.

The assassination scene.

Just as Yan Shuangying finished reminding Ye Shaohong, the distinctive "rat-a-tat-tat" sound of the machine gun firing suddenly rang out.

Before Ye Shaohong and Yan Shuangying could react, the machine gun bullets struck the car with a loud "ping-pong" sound, and the noise became as violent as popping beans.

"It's a crooked handle."

"There are at least two of them, this is troublesome!"

Yan Shuangying shrank his neck and tried his best to shrink his body to reduce the amount of his exposed body parts.

At the same time, he grinned and shared his opinion.

"As expected."

"Hold on a little longer, our people will be here in three to five minutes at most."

"The situation will improve then!"

Since Ye Shaohong had anticipated this situation, he naturally made arrangements in advance.

He changed vehicles halfway through the journey to prevent Mitsui Meitaro from planting bombs on the vehicles.

Sending Yan Shuangying over to provide backup was a form of close protection.

The subsequent personnel arrangements were also a backup plan he had prepared for himself long ago.

Ye Shaohong had a good plan, but he underestimated Mitsui Meitaro's persistent desire to kill him.

Despite being exposed, Mitsui Meitaro still refused to retreat, in order to quell his resentment and kill Ye Shaohong.

He had been planning for many days and had prepared a number of methods.

Ye Shaohong and Yan Shuangying wanted to buy time to deal with the enemy's offensive, but those Japanese devils were wicked.

Seeing that Ye Shaohong was hiding behind the wrecked car and never showed his face, the group of Japanese soldiers who had just been summoned by Mitsui Meitaro had no intention of engaging Ye Shaohong and Yan Shuangying in close combat.

They first used the firepower of the Type 96 machine gun to suppress the enemy and gradually close the battle line to within 20 meters of Ye Shaohong.

Then these Japanese soldiers took out the hand grenades and homemade explosive packs they had prepared beforehand, preparing to launch a deadly attack on Ye Shaohong and Yan Shuangying who were hiding.

Their intentions were also noticed by Ye Shaohong and Yan Shuangying.

The two of them immediately tensed up.

"Damn it!" "These bastards!"

The carefully laid plans suddenly took an unexpected turn, and with death looming close, Ye Shaohong panicked.

He decided to stop hiding.

Instead, he shifted his body, found a blind spot covered by enemy machine gun fire, and immediately stood up.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

With four shots fired in quick succession, Ye Shaohong's marksmanship would have been enough to take down several opponents.

This time, however, he did not choose to kill the enemy.

Instead, he used the dim moonlight to shoot at the grenades and homemade bombs flying through the air. By the time Ye Shaohong crouched down and hid again, his risky actions had only resulted in the killing of two enemies.

However, his actions were effective.

Ye Shaohong's sudden counterattack drew the enemy's attention, and the enemy then shifted the firepower of their Type 96 machine guns to where Ye Shaohong was hiding.

Taking this opportunity, Yan Shuangying made a decisive move.

Holding two guns, he leaped into the air, immediately escaping the cramped space of the wrecked car. As he flew, he continuously fired the pistols.

In a brief moment, Yan Shuangying fired six shots.

Four of them were shot in the head.

The remaining two shots deflected two grenades thrown into the air, saving Ye Shaohong's life at a crucial moment.

No wonder they're considered the pinnacle of combat prowess in spy films.

He didn't make a move until he did, and when he did, he shocked everyone. Not to mention the Japanese soldiers on the other side, even Ye Shaohong, who was hiding, couldn't help but gape.

"Bullshit!"

That being said, he still had to cooperate well with Yan Shuangying. Yan Shuangying's outstanding performance caused the scattered soldiers recruited by Mitsui Meitaro from the overseas Chinese community to fall into a brief moment of panic and disorientation.

Their firepower suppression of Ye Shaohong also paused slightly.

Then Ye Shaohong picked up the Thompson machine gun, stood up, and began a frantic counterattack.

"Da da da da da..."

The machine gun's firepower was ferocious, and the sound of bullets leaving the barrel was also pleasant. In just the time it takes to breathe, Ye Shaohong used the terrifying firepower of the Thompson machine gun to kill three enemies.

One of them was the enemy's machine gunner.

This effectively thwarted most of the enemy's encirclement and offensive.

That's not even the most important thing.

Most importantly, the men Mitsui Meitaro gathered this time were not regular soldiers, but Japanese ronin (masterless samurai) residing in Nanjing. Although their minds had been brainwashed, they were not afraid of death.

However, faced with the extraordinary combat power displayed by Ye Shaohong and Yan Shuangying, the remaining Japanese soldiers were also terrified.

They no longer dared to recklessly attack Ye Shaohong and Yan Shuangying.

Instead, they hid.

They attempted to wage a positional war against Ye Shaohong and Yan Shuangying, relying on their superior equipment and numerical advantage to gradually compress Ye Shaohong and Yan Shuangying's living space.

But this is also Ye Shaohong's need.

A few minutes later.

The roar of car engines rose from afar, and as the headlights shone, the reinforcements from the Special Service arrived.

The follow-up work went smoothly.

With the cooperation of numerous special operations field agents, and the assistance of two expert operators, Ye Shaohong and Yan Shuangying, the remaining Japanese residents and ronin were either killed or maimed and fell to the guns of the crowd in just a few breaths.

Watching the special agents cleaning up the battlefield, Ye Shaohong did not linger there.

He called to Yan Shuangying, and they sped off into the distance.

"go!"

"Let's go meet Mitsui Meitaro. This time, he won't be able to escape!"
