Chapter 065: Commander of the Imperial Guard

  Dong Li Mao thought it would be like the last task, where the whole company jumped out of the parachute to the enemy's rear. After he came out of the house and saw that the whole company had assembled, there was no unnecessary nonsense, because time was tight, and he just shouted loudly: "Depart!"

  As soon as they left the courtyard, Zhu Yongsheng handed the car key to Dong Li Mao and said: "I got a US-style jeep from the equipment department for Lian Zhang."

  Dong Li Mao saw a US military jeep parked in front of the four trucks, walked over and got into the car to start it. Zhu Yong Sheng and Pan Guang Zu sat inside, while the rest of the people quickly boarded the four trucks behind in an orderly manner.

  The headquarters is about a dozen kilometers away from the temporary airport, and Dong Li Mao drove the car at a breakneck speed, with the jeep racing like flying on the bumpy dirt road.

  Ten minutes later, Te Wu's motorcade arrived at the airport entrance and was stopped by several gendarmes in front.

  Dong Li Mao was about to get off the bus when Kong Xueri's loud voice shouted: "Is it a special agent who has arrived?"

  Dong Li Maozhao looked in the direction of the sound and saw Kong Xueri walking towards him with big strides.

  "Reacted quickly, worthy of Special Forces, arrived within half an hour." Kong Xueri said, glancing at his watch.

  "Do we need to mobilize the entire company this time?" asked Dong Li Mao.

  "That's right, the Special Operations Unit is our army's best unit. The commander specifically chose you, Commissar Dong, to be in charge of internal security, while the Guard Regiment will take care of external defense." Kong Xueri replied.

  "Internal alert? Is Colonel Kong referring to the airport?" Dong Li Mao finally understood that they were not going to have their special forces parachute, but were in charge of security at the airport.

  Kong Xueri leaned in close to Dong Li Mao's ear and whispered, "The Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese War Zone will arrive at the Donggua front line for an inspection more than an hour later. You little brat is going to have a big day ahead of you. If you can guarantee the Commander-in-Chief's safety this time, who knows, he might even let you be his personal bodyguard."

  "You mean Chiang..." Dong Li Mao was somewhat surprised, and before he could finish his sentence, Kong Xueri interrupted him.

  "Shh... don't make a sound, try not to let too many people know. Now, scatter your men around the airport's various entrances and exits, mark out a safe zone. Without military permits, no one is allowed to approach the airport, let alone the safe zone. Place your snipers at the highest points of each corner. If anyone makes a move, you can take them down without needing permission, including the special forces."

  Dong Li Mao then divided the special agent company according to Kong Xue's words, and let Gou Hao lead two squads to be responsible for the security area's patrol. He also told Wang Jia Gui alone: "Remember, no matter who it is, as long as someone approaches like a plane landing or someone aims at the people on the plane with a gun, you can shoot them dead without asking for instructions."

  "Yes!" Wang Jiagui stood up straight and replied, leading the sniper squad to find the best ambush position.

  Dong Li Mao drove the US military jeep, circling the entire airport twice to confirm that all his people were in place. Only then did he stop the car at a distance of two hundred meters from the terminal building, as the area within two hundred meters was considered a safe zone, waiting for the arrival of the plane.

  Bonfires were lit on both sides of the airport runway as a marker for the plane's landing.

  Before long, the sound of rumbling aircraft engines came from the night sky. The senior generals waiting at the airport to pick up the plane all came down from upstairs. Dong Li Mao wanted to see who Du Yuming was, but it was too dark and everyone wore general uniforms, so he couldn't see clearly, not even General Dai Anlan.

  Several black sedans slowly drove in from the airport entrance and stopped in a row within the secure area.

  The plane landed steadily on the runway lit with bonfires, taxiing over to the terminal building, and three escort fighter jets also landed one after another, stopping at a nearby apron.

  Anyone with a gun cannot get close, can only stand guard 200 meters away, and is standing upright with their back to the plane and facing outwards. From the position of the plane to the terminal building, two platoons of special agents led by Gao Hao stood in two rows, back to back, without anyone turning their head, almost every ten meters standing one, isolating a narrow safe area, except for the generals who received the plane, no one can be active in the safety zone.

  Dong Li Mao stood two hundred meters outside the right side of the terminal building watching the commotion, Pan Guang Zu asked: "Company Commander, who are these people?"

  "I don't know." Dong Li Mao replied.

  "Look at this lineup, with fighter jets escorting, it's definitely not an ordinary person," said Zhu Yongsheng.

  As the three of them were talking, the plane's cabin door opened and a dozen or so fully armed soldiers rushed out first, quickly running down the gangway and standing on either side of the cabin door. It seemed that they were the guards mentioned by Kong Xueri. Next, a tall and thin man in a general's uniform appeared at the cabin door, scanning the people waiting to greet him below before stepping down the gangway, followed by several others also wearing general's uniforms.

  Just as the man stepped down from the gangway, a crisp gunshot rang out from an airplane parked opposite Dong Li Mao and others, startling the tall and thin general who was walking in front to almost fall off the gangway. Fortunately, the guards standing at the cabin door rushed up and surrounded him.

  Wang Jiagui chose a plane parked at the airport as an ambush point, climbing onto the wing of the plane, just enough to lie flat on it. He adjusted his gun and used the scope to sweep back and forth across the iron fence opposite him. He thought that if he were a sniper, the grass outside the iron fence would be the best place for an ambush. Just as the plane landed and taxied into the safety zone, Wang Jiagui saw a black shadow move on the grass. The shadow then professionally raised his sniper rifle from a kneeling position. Wang Jiagui aimed the crosshairs at the person's forehead and pulled the trigger decisively, shooting the person to the ground where they lay motionless. Wang Jiagui didn't rush to jump off the plane but instead swept several rounds around the iron fence with experience, wanting to see if there were any other snipers.

  That was the crisp gunshot sound that Dong Li Mao and others heard.

  Dong Li Mao understood in his heart that the person who got off the plane was definitely fine, otherwise he would not have survived the subsequent civil war. He also knew that it must have been the sniper squad's brothers who discovered someone trying to assassinate the person getting off the plane, so they opened fire. Therefore, he jumped onto the car, and Pan Guangzu and Zhu Yongsheng followed him onto the car, quickly driving towards the plane parked on the opposite side where the gunshots were coming from.

  The entire airport did not fall into chaos due to the gunshot, and the special agent brothers responsible for guarding the security area remained motionless at their original posts, unaffected by the sound of the gun. This is called sticking to one's post, which was specifically emphasized by Dong Li Mao beforehand.

  Dong Li Mao drove the jeep in front of the plane that had fired shots, and Wang Jia Gui jumped down from it.

  "Was it you who fired the shot?" Dong Limao jumped off the car and asked.

  "There's a sniper outside the iron fence opposite us who I took out." Wang Jiagui said, pointing in the direction of the iron fence surrounding the airport.

  "Hurry up and get on!" Dong Li Mao drove the car over to the position Wang Jia Gui had said.

  Along the barbed wire fence, two soldiers from a special duty company who were responsible for patrolling along the barbed wire fence had already run to that place.

  Dong Li Mao stopped the car, but didn't turn off the headlights. He walked up and saw a person wearing black clothes lying on the ground outside the iron fence. There was a sniper rifle next to him, and there was a bullet hole in his forehead.

  "Search the surrounding area immediately, there may be other assassins!" Dong Li Mao ordered. Outside the iron fence to the left, the sound of wolf dogs barking came, and the flashlight's swaying became closer and closer. Before long, Kong Xuer appeared outside the iron fence with his men.

  "This is an assassin, I didn't expect him to be hiding here." Kong Xueri kicked the dead gunman with his foot and looked at the generals in the airport: "This position is indeed a perfect sniping spot. Dong Lianchang, which brother shot this son of a bitch?"

  "Wang Jia Gui." Dong Li Mao replied.

  "Well done! You've done a great job! You've made a big contribution!" Kong Xueri gave Wang Jiaogui a thumbs up.

  "Director Kong, have the guards search the perimeter carefully, there may be other snipers hiding around." Dong Li Mao reminded Kong Xueri.

  No sooner had he finished speaking than a loud shout was heard from Kou Hao near the terminal building.
