Chapter 066 Refusing to be a Guard

  Gu Hao was in charge of the safety zone for the plane's landing. When he heard the sound of gunfire, he remembered Dong Li Mao's words and did not lead his subordinates to leave their posts half a step.

  A lieutenant-colonel ran down from the terminal building, walking quickly towards several black sedans parked in front of the plane.

  Gu Hao immediately stepped forward and blocked the lieutenant colonel.

  "Halt!"

  The major military officer took out a military pass and flashed it in front of Gou Hao, shouting: "I have an urgent task to report to General Du! If I'm delayed, you'll be held responsible! Get out of my way!"

  Gu Hao was indeed intimidated by the officer for a moment, took a step back, and planned to let him pass. However, when the lieutenant colonel walked past Gu Hao, he saw that the officer had a pistol holstered at his waist. Gu Hao then reached out with his right hand and grabbed the officer's left shoulder.

  The lieutenant's right hand swiftly grasped Gu Hao's right wrist the moment his left shoulder was touched, and then his left elbow struck backwards towards Gu Hao's chest and abdomen.

  His several consecutive moves were incredibly fast, but Gou Hao was no ordinary person.

  Gao Hao took advantage of the momentum to dodge to the left, avoiding the officer's left elbow, and lifted his left foot to knee the major in the crotch.

  The lieutenant colonel had no choice but to release Gu Hao's wrist and block himself with both hands down.

  Gao Hao continued to use his elbow to smash towards his head.

  The lieutenant was no slouch, and with a swift motion of his elbow, he threw a punch at the opening in Gao's chest.

  Gao Hao could only dodge backwards, and in this brief moment, the lieutenant pulled out a handgun from his waist and chased after Gao Hao towards several black sedans.

  At this time, several generals who were picking up the plane had already prepared to leave by car. The guards who came down from the plane glanced at Gou Hao and others, but no one intended to come over to ask questions, and they just escorted the general who got off the plane into the car.

  Gao Hao couldn't let the lieutenant colonel rush forward, but he also couldn't shoot because there were generals just a few dozen meters ahead. So he took out his dagger, using it was his specialty, and with a swing of his hand, the dagger plunged into the lieutenant colonel's right shoulder blade. The gun in his right hand, which had just been raised, fell to the ground with a loud clang, and his body fell forward, landing on the concrete floor. Gao Hao rushed forward, one foot stomping on the officer's lower back, shouting: "Don't move! Otherwise, I'll blow your brains out!"

  That was the loud voice of Gou Hao that Dong Li Mao and others heard.

  Several soldiers from the Special Forces unit gathered around, surrounding the person who had fallen to the ground and Gao You.

  The fleet of cars picking up passengers quickly left the airport.

  Dong Li Mao drove up just as a black sedan was pulling out of the airport exit.

  The officer with a dagger inserted in his back was now held up by two soldiers, one on each side.

  "Colonel Lian, this lieutenant colonel ignored advice and forcibly rushed towards the plane..." Gou Hao stood at attention to report to Dong Li Mao.

  "Throw him onto the car! We'll talk about it later." Dong Li Mao ordered without waiting for Gou Hao to finish speaking.

  After a thrilling and perilous operation, the special agent team successfully foiled an assassination plot at the airport, which would have rewritten China's history. However, history is history after all, and no matter how powerful one may be, it is impossible to rewrite what has already occurred.

  Dong Li Mao's car arrived at the airport exit, where Kong Xue Li was waiting for him.

  "Dong Lianchang, hand this person over to me. Today's mission for the Special Operations Unit has been accomplished with great success!" Kong Xueri ordered his men to take down the wounded lieutenant from Dong Li Mao's vehicle.

  Dong Li Mao didn't bother with these trivial matters either, so he gathered his brothers and got on the car to return to Lian's department.

  The next morning, the military department sent someone to let Dong Li Mao, Wang Jia Gui and Gou Hao go to the military department, not allowing them to bring any weapons.

  Dong, Li and Mao were led into a house by someone and waited there. Before long, two people walked out of the adjacent house.

  One of them, walking in the front, was that tall and thin general Dong Limao saw getting off the plane last night. Behind him, another general followed, and Dong Limao's eyes were fixed on the person behind him.

  Dong Li Mao judged from the appearance of this person that he should be Du Yuming, the commander of the Fifth Army. Compared with the black and white photos in historical records, he looked much younger, only 38 years old, and had already been a general leading thousands of troops on the battlefield for many years. He was also the deputy commander-in-chief of the first route of the Burma Expeditionary Force. The Battle of Kunlun Pass, which he commanded, was one of the most satisfying battles fought by the Chinese army against Japan. In that battle, they killed the commander of a Japanese brigade and annihilated more than 4,000 Japanese soldiers from the so-called "Steel Army" Fifth Division.

  That person with a strong Jiangsu and Zhejiang accent walked up to shake hands and talk, but Dong Li Mao wasn't very interested. His gaze and thoughts were all focused on Du Yuming, who was an anti-Japanese general he had always admired!

  "Dong Jiacheng, you are an anti-Japanese hero of the expeditionary army and a model for Chinese soldiers. You have made outstanding contributions in the Dongguo assault battle and the deep penetration behind enemy lines to destroy bacterial bombs. This is the Blue Sky with a White Sun Medal awarded by the state, affirming your military achievements." The tall and thin general shook hands with the three of them one by one, then walked to Dong Limao's side, took a medal from Du Yuming's hand, personally hung it on Dong Limao's left chest uniform, patted his shoulder, and asked: "Are you willing to follow me?"

  Dong Li Mao was momentarily at a loss: "Ah..."

  Du Yiming then smiled and explained: "The principal asked you, are you willing to work by his side? From now on, all of you can follow the principal."

  "Reporting to the principal! Oh no... Reporting to the commander-in-chief! I refuse!" Dong Limao stood at attention and replied with his head held high.

  His face immediately fell, and his already long donkey face became even longer. He glanced at Du Yuming, turned around, walked to a chair, and sat down with a gloomy plop.

  Du Yiming also put on a serious face and stared at Dong Limao, asking: "Why don't you want to?"

  "Report to Commander Du! I want to stay on the front line to fight against the Japanese and kill the devils!" Dong Li Mao answered with a straight back, not afraid at all. In fact, he was fighting against the Japanese for what reason, he wanted to get that photo of Tai Jiaye as soon as possible, so that he could return to his luxurious life, and meet that school flower Bai Ruxue again.

  "What about you two?" Du Yuming turned his face towards Wang Jiagui and Gou Hao.

  "Report to the commander! We are willing to stay on the front line with Captain Dong to fight against the Japanese and kill the devils!" Wang Jiagui and Gou Hao looked at each other, stood up straight and answered almost in unison.

  "How dare you! This is a military order, and you also dare to disobey..." Du Yuming shouted loudly.

  "Report to Commander Du! The two of them are willing!" Dong Li Mao immediately helped speak for Wang Jia Gui and Gou Hao.

  "Report to Commander Dong! We are willing to follow Commander Dong to kill devils!" Gu Hao and Wang Jia Gui hurriedly explained.

  Dong Li Mao was at a loss for whether to laugh or cry and couldn't persuade the two of them to leave this haunted place, so he elbowed Wang Jia Gui who was standing next to him.

  Du Yuming's eyes widened again, and he was about to get angry.

  "Never mind! Let them stay with you then! It seems my face is not as thick as yours!" The general sitting there laughed and said, finding an excuse to step down.

  After finishing, he stood up and walked to Dong Li Mao's front and said: "With such a determined brother willing to live and die with you, I am so envious!" It seemed that this sentence was spoken to Du Yuming rather than Dong Li Mao. Then he walked to Wang Jia Gui and Gou Hao's side, looking at the two of them saying: "If our army were all like yours, recovering the lost rivers and mountains would be just a matter of time! I hope you will kill more devils and make more meritorious achievements on the front line!"

  Received by the commander-in-chief, Dong Li Mao didn't feel anything good, but Wang Jia Gui and Gou Hao were completely different. The two of them were so excited when they left that their legs went soft and they almost tripped on the doorstep.
