Spy Wars: I am the Captain of the Military Police

Chapter 1195 Qi Anzhi, are you crazy?

In just a few minutes, Qi Anzhi led his squad to break through the Japanese army's defenses and rushed to Chen Gongshu and the others.

He stopped and quickly glanced at Chen Gongshu, Zhao Guangyuan, and the others. Seeing that they were all injured, he frowned slightly and then shouted, "Station Chief Chen! Come with us now!"

Before Qi Anzhi could say anything more, Chen Gongshu immediately stepped forward, grabbed his collar, and slammed him against the wall. His eyes were icy cold, and his tone was full of anger and anxiety. He almost roared as he questioned, "Qi Anzhi, are you crazy?!"

Your mission is to assassinate Wang Kemin. How could you show up here on such an important mission?!

Do you know that this is a Japanese trap?

They had already laid a trap, just waiting for us to walk right into it!

Your sudden appearance will not only fail to save me, but will also endanger the entire team!

What about the mission to assassinate Wang Kemin? Is it going to fail because of your recklessness?

Qi Anzhi showed no anger on his face; instead, he smiled gently.

She raised her hand and grasped Chen Gongshu's wrist, then gently pushed his hand away. She patted the dust off her clothes, her tone seemingly relaxed, but her eyes were filled with determination: "Station Chief Chen, please don't be angry."

If we hadn't come, you probably wouldn't have been able to leave today.

He paused, his gaze sweeping across the surrounding battlefield. Hearing the approaching gunfire of the Japanese army in the distance, he lowered his voice and continued, "Think about it, without you, it wouldn't have been so easy for us to assassinate Wang Kemin."

You are most familiar with the situation in Beiping. You need your guidance on where there are hiding places, where the Japanese troops are stationed, and who can be won over.

Although our squad is elite, we are not as familiar with the terrain of Beiping and the details of the Japanese army's deployment as you are. Acting blindly will only increase the risk of the mission.

"Moreover, you are the head of the Military Intelligence Bureau's Beiping station. If even you fall into the hands of the Japanese army, even if we succeed in the assassination, we will not be able to explain it to the Chief."

Qi Anzhi's tone became more serious: "When the Chief sent us here, he specifically instructed us that we must not only complete the assassination mission, but also do our best to ensure your safety."

If the sergeant asks, we can't very well say that we just watched the stationmaster being arrested by the Japanese army and did nothing about it, can we?

That would not only throw the work at the Beiping station into chaos, but also make it impossible for us to maintain our foothold within the Military Intelligence Bureau.

Looking into Qi Anzhi's determined eyes, Chen Gongshu felt a mix of emotions.

He knew that Qi Anzhi was telling the truth. Assassinating Wang Kemin did indeed require his cooperation, and as the team leader, Qi Anzhi also had a responsibility to rescue him, the station chief of Beiping Station.

But the thought of the two team members who had just sacrificed their lives caused him a pang of pain. Each one of them was an indispensable force in the assassination mission. The fewer people there were, the lower the probability of the mission's success became. How could he not feel heartbroken? No rush.

He opened his mouth as if to say something, but swallowed the words back down.

Now that things have come to this, Qi Anzhi's team has been exposed, and pursuing responsibility further will be of no use. The most important thing now is to break out as soon as possible and preserve the remaining forces.

Just then, the Japanese troops behind them launched another fierce pursuit. The gunfire grew closer and closer, and bullets rained down on them, hitting the alley walls with a "thud" sound and sending up sparks and dust.

Several bullets even grazed Chen Gongshu's ears, their sharp whistling sound sending chills down one's spine.

"There's no time for this, let's retreat!" Qi Anzhi's expression changed, and he immediately dropped his relaxed demeanor, quickly issuing orders: "Machine gunners, stay put and provide cover, suppressing Japanese fire. Follow us after we've retreated fifty meters!"

The rest of you, follow me, provide flank cover, and escort Station Chief Chen and the comrades from Beiping Station to their evacuation!

"Yes!" the team members responded in unison, their voices loud and firm, and they immediately sprang into action.

The two machine gunners quickly adjusted their positions, setting up their Czech light machine guns at a higher level, aiming the muzzles at the direction of the pursuing Japanese troops, and began firing wildly. The dense bullets formed a fire barrier, temporarily halting the Japanese advance.

Holding a Thompson submachine gun, Qi Anzhi led the way, occasionally looking back to check the situation behind him and make sure everyone could keep up.

Suppressing his grief, Chen Gongshu helped the injured Zhao Guangyuan beside him.

Everyone immediately followed Qi Anzhi's footsteps and ran towards the gap in the encirclement that had just been opened.

Lan Zichun, holding a Mauser pistol, followed in the middle of the group, vigilantly observing his surroundings while firing cover at the Japanese soldiers behind him.

The imposter Liu Geqing, who was being held captive, has woken up. Chen Gongshu wants to take him back for interrogation, so now they have no choice but to break through the encirclement together.

The Japanese troops were in hot pursuit, and the sounds of gunfire, explosions, and shouts of battle shattered the tranquility of the night.

The Japanese armored vehicles slowly advanced along the alley, their roof-mounted machine guns constantly spitting fire in the direction of the crowd.

Bullets struck debris in the alley, sending wood chips and pebbles flying everywhere. The stench of blood and gunpowder grew stronger and stronger, making people nauseous.

Qi Anzhi led the group into a narrower alley, attempting to use the complex terrain to escape the Japanese army's pursuit.

However, the Japanese army was prepared. Not only did their ground troops pursue them closely, but they also deployed snipers to occupy the rooftops on both sides of the alley, firing in their direction.

"Watch out for snipers!" Qi Anzhi shouted, shoving a teammate next to him aside.

Just then, a crisp sniper shot rang out, and a bullet grazed the team member's shoulder.

It hit a squad member behind it in the head.

The team member didn't even have time to scream before he fell straight to the ground, dying instantly. Blood flowed down his forehead, staining the ground beneath him red.

Qi Anzhi's eyes darkened, and he fired several shots towards the rooftop to suppress the sniper's firepower. He shouted to the group, "Get through this area quickly! There are Japanese snipers on the rooftops!" The group dared not linger and quickened their pace, running deeper into the alley, occasionally ducking to avoid bullets coming from the rooftops.

But trouble followed one after another as Japanese grenades kept being thrown at them, exploding around them.

One of the squad members was wounded in the leg by a grenade, blood gushing out. He staggered and fell to the ground, a resolute glint in his eyes as he watched the approaching Japanese troops.

He gritted his teeth, reached out and took out a bundle of explosives, and slowly pulled the fuse.

"Company commander! Go! Don't worry about me!" the team member shouted at Qi Anzhi, his eyes filled with determination.

The moment Qi Anzhi turned around, he met the resolute look in the eyes of the team member. The sizzling sound of the burning fuse mixed with the gunshot pierced his eardrums, like a blunt knife stabbing into his heart.

He roared and tried to turn around, but Chen Gongshu grabbed his arm tightly.
