Chapter 777 Double Shot
The area in front of the venue was blocked by the Zhepeng soldiers, and even the entire street was under the control of the Zhepeng people. Anyone who walked into this street would be immediately reacted and controlled by the Zhepeng people.
The puppet soldiers were all squatting and holding their heads 50 meters away. They were all searched and disarmed. Two machine guns were pointed at these people on the left and right, and they dared not make any moves.
Within a radius of 50 meters, there was no one or anything that posed even the slightest threat to Muto Yixin, so Muto Yixin was not worried about his own safety at all.
His mind was now full of how to clean up the mess.
But he didn't think about these things, but the officer responsible for protecting him had to think about this.
The officer looked around vigilantly to eliminate all hidden dangers that could threaten Muto Yixin.
But he soon breathed a sigh of relief, because he initially concluded that there was indeed no one nearby who could pose a threat to Muto Yixin.
"We will search the venue carefully later, leaving no corner unsearched. In addition, everyone in the venue will also be searched again..." The officer thought as he continued to look around.
Suddenly, his eyes stopped.
He saw the church on the next street.
There was a big cross hanging on the spire.
However, his focus was not on this, but if there was a sniper hiding there, Muto Yixin would be exposed to the muzzle of the sniper rifle!
The church is about 100 meters away from here. Although this distance is theoretically within the range of a pistol, in reality, due to the short barrel, light weight, and lack of a stable buttstock of a pistol, the effective range of a pistol is generally within 50 meters.
The probability of hitting a target with a pistol at a distance of more than 50 meters is basically the same as winning the lottery.
Therefore, if someone wants to hide in the spire of the church to assassinate Muto Yixin, this person must have a sniper rifle.
Although the officer didn't think that under such strict control in Jinxiu State, there would be someone who could bring out a long sniper rifle.
But it's better to be safe than sorry.
So he started moving towards Muto Yixin as soon as he found this defense loophole, hoping to use his body to block the spire and Muto Yixin.
At the same time, he pointed to the spire of the church and ordered his men around him: "You, take people there..."
The officer was stunned when he was only halfway through his words.
Because he seemed to have seen a flash of silver light just now.
But this silver light flashed and disappeared, making him think that it was just an illusion.
Before he could react, he saw the second silver light, the third silver light, and the fourth silver light!
The officer's hair stood up all over his body in an instant, and he rushed towards Muto Yixin while shouting that the enemy was attacking.
But he rushed to nothing!
Because Muto Yixin was stumbling backwards while holding his chest.
His expression was distorted and terrified, and there was a trace of confusion.
In his chest, there was a crossbow arrow, with only the tail of the arrow exposed!
Puff!
Immediately afterwards, the second and third crossbow arrows came one after another, one still pierced Muto Yixin's chest, and the other penetrated his head from his left cheek!
Until then, the officer stood in front of Muto Yixin, and he felt a continuous stabbing pain in his back, and then he fell heavily to the ground while holding Muto Yixin's body.
None of the hundreds of Zhepeng soldiers around could react at this moment!
Because there was no sound, and if they didn't pay attention, they would not have noticed the trajectory of the crossbow arrow.
So almost all the soldiers just saw their superiors holding Commander Muto and falling to the ground, and there were four or five crossbow arrows on his back.
But no one saw where the crossbow arrows came from!
If it was a sniper rifle, I'm afraid that at the first shot, the soldiers would lock the position of the church spire based on the direction of the gunshot.
This is the advantage of the crossbow. Its range is longer than that of a pistol, but it is silent and has a very high concealment.
The officer who fell to the ground and Muto Yixin were not dead. The officer roared at the first time: "The church spire! He is at the church spire!"
The soldiers woke up from their dreams and raised their guns to shoot at the church spire.
"Catch him! Catch him!" Muto Yixin roared vaguely.
"Quick! Send the general to the hospital!" The officer shouted in pain.
He was very upset now. If he had discovered this defense loophole earlier, the attacker would not have had a chance to attack!
But who would have thought that the attacker would be so bold?
After successfully assassinating Zhang Jinghui, they actually stayed in place and assassinated General Muto again!
Double shots!
The crossbow arrows did not penetrate into the vital points. Due to the long distance, the stabs were not deep.
Except for the crossbow arrow that hit Muto Yixin's face, which penetrated through the gap between Muto Yixin's temporal bone and mandible and was completely embedded, which might be dangerous, the rest of the crossbow arrows were not fatal.
Including the arrows that pierced the officer's back.
But what worried the officer was whether the crossbow arrows were poisoned?
He prayed to Amaterasu in his heart, hoping that there would be no poison.
But when the soldiers he sent ran to the church, his limbs and consciousness were no longer under his control.
"Despicable Zhina..."
The officer collapsed on the ground in anger and fear, spitting white foam, his limbs twitching, gradually losing all consciousness, and his limbs became stiff.
On the other side, Muto Yixin was in the same situation.
When he realized that he was poisoned, he felt endless regret in his heart.
His subordinates and his superiors had reminded him to pay attention to this firecracker that came out of nowhere, and to pay great attention to this assassination gang.
It was his stubbornness and arrogance that he thought that firecrackers were nothing to be afraid of, and they might succeed a few times when people were not prepared, causing a sensation.
But as long as the Zhepeng soldiers were alert, what awaited these desperate criminals would be a shameful failure and ultimate destruction!
He never took firecrackers seriously, because he did not think these rats hiding in the gutter were worthy of being his opponents.
His goal was this country, not a few desperate criminals.
But now, he paid the price for his arrogance and paranoia!
A painful price!
"At least I should have worn a bulletproof vest..."
Muto Yixin twitched in endless fear, unwillingness and regret, and gradually lost his life.
The soldiers sent to the church soon found a firecracker on the top of the church tower, and nothing else.
This place has been deserted for a long time.
This is Su Yi's firecracker plan!
If it were an ordinary person, he would only think that there were double forces of Zhe Peng soldiers and puppet troops at the entrance of the venue, and the defense should be tighter, and he would never choose this place as the place of action.
But Su Yi used reverse thinking and keenly realized that this was the only loophole in Zhang Jinghui's defense!
The reason why he found this loophole was not because he was lucky, but because all the preset conditions had occurred.
Instead, he calculated people's hearts and knew that if there were no accidents, Zhang Jinghui would stay at the door to wait for his master, the puppet army would cause congestion and chaos, and Muto Yixin would come to check the situation in person. These things would most likely happen.
Especially in the last case, he used the inertia of people's thinking logic to make Muto Yixin and his guards think that the attacker had escaped and there would be no danger at the scene, so they relaxed their vigilance.
In fact, the devils would most likely ignore the loophole on the top of the church tower.
Because if Su Yi had attacked from the church spire when assassinating Zhang Jinghui, it wouldn't have been so troublesome. He would have risked a lot to run to the scene and perform blasting and close-range shooting.
The reason why Su Yi chose the difficult over the easy was to make the devils ignore the church spire.
He succeeded!
Su Yi cleverly took advantage of the inevitability and contingency of the development of the situation, and the blind spots and inertia of the thinking logic of ordinary people, and completed this double-kick plan, assassinating Zhang Jinghui and Muto Yixin, two notorious "big men" with one shot!
The process of escaping from the splendid city can be regarded as a thrilling escape.
Hua Kezhi formulated three plans to leave the city, and Su Yi quickly joined them, and then took advantage of the devil's confusion to escape.
After killing Muto Yixin, the highest commander of the Kwantung Army, the trip to Rehe should have ended.
This time, the Zhepeng people really chased Su Yi and his men like crazy, set up checkpoints along the way, and dispatched planes to bomb all suspicious and hiding places.
They also carried out several massacres in retaliation, but they only exposed their desperate and desperate tactics.
Generals were assassinated one after another, and the Zhepeng people were already panic-stricken. In the end, the quantitative change led to a qualitative change, which really had an impact on the war.
The Zhepeng people in Chifeng retreated, and the Zhepeng people in Chaoyang also retreated.
Because of the death of the commander-in-chief, they temporarily retreated and formed a strategic confrontation with the Guo army.
The Zhepeng side began to condemn the Guo government for engaging in terrorist assassinations, and wooed the powers to condemn such behavior and put pressure on the Guo government.
On the Guo government side, Tang Yulin held a banquet to celebrate the "victory" of the Rehe Anti-Japanese War.
Sun Laodian received supplies and weapons, and was rewarded by the Guo government, completely redeeming his reputation as the "Dongling Thief" and becoming a patriotic anti-Japanese general.
The people across the country were cheering and celebrating this rare victory, and national sentiment was high.
However, behind this jubilation, the top leaders of the Guo government and people of insight knew very well that this situation was only temporary.
Although Muto Yoshinobu paid the price for his arrogance and paranoia, he was right about one thing at least.
This was a contest between countries, a struggle between two huge war machines. In the face of such a big situation, the power of an individual is actually insignificant.
Has everything changed?
No.
Soon, the Zhepeng headquarters sent Army General Hishikari Takashi to replace Muto Yoshinobu, Umezu Mijiro officially took office in Tianjin, and Shimomoto Kumamiya also successfully controlled the Eighth Division.
Three months later, the Zhepeng people regrouped and launched an attack on Rehe again, which was the Second Rehe War.
This war repeated the history that should have been.
After resisting for half a month, Rehe fell completely!
Even if the Ertijiao Assassination Group still had an amazing performance in this war, it could not rewrite the outcome of this war.
Of course, this is a later story.
At least this time, Su Yi rewrote the direction and outcome of this war, and he successfully completed the task.
"Hello, actor Su Yi. The second act of the third unit "King of Assassination" - Wind Rising in Rehe has been completed. Performance evaluation: Amazing; reward: 50 director points."
"Hello, actor Su Yi. The third act of the third unit "King of Assassination" - Eight Consecutive Kills has been released.
Task description: Let the name of the Ertijiao Assassination Group become the nightmare of General Zhepeng!"
On the way back to Jinmen, Su Yi received the information that the second act of the third unit was completed and the third act was released.
He noticed that the name of "Ertijiao Assassination Group" was mentioned in the mission description, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
This shows that his previous idea is feasible.
Assassination and martial arts are actually full of contradictions.
One requires Su Yi to stand under the spotlight and accept the cheers and admiration of the people.
The other requires Su Yi to hide in the dark and become a ghost and nightmare that some people can never find.
Can Su Yi really switch between the two identities of Ertijiao and Jinmen hero without being discovered by anyone?
He was not confident about this. Su Yi felt that exposure was a matter of sooner or later.
But he must try to postpone the time of exposure, otherwise his martial arts mission goal will completely lose hope of achieving it.
Therefore, Su Yi began to consciously form a team and train them to act independently.
In the future, the Ertijiao team will continue to help Su Yi complete the assassination mission in the third unit "The King of Assassination" under the leadership of Hua Kezhi and Yixiantian.
His focus will be on the task of the second unit "The Grandmaster".
Everything is ready for the opening of the martial arts school. His trip to Rehe this time can be regarded as delaying the fall of Tianjin and buying more time for himself to deploy martial arts.
Next, he will speed up the time to open the martial arts school as soon as possible.
Su Yi came back very timely.
He was originally scheduled to be away for four or five days, or as long as a week.
But in fact, he was gone for twelve days!
In these twelve days, Zhao Dezhu has turned down several groups of people who came to visit him or test his true and false on his behalf.
Zhao Dezhu told Su Yi that in addition to the people from the martial arts industry, the chamber of commerce, and the foot industry who came to see Su Yi, the people of Zhepeng have also come to see him frequently recently, especially a man named He Zhiyinger, who almost broke into Geng's house.
Fortunately, Wang Erniu had already imitated Su Yi and refused He Zhiying'er's visit from a distance of more than ten meters. He Zhiying'er saw Su Yi "in person" and did not continue to force his way into the bedroom, but chose to leave.
Afterwards, this Zhepeng man also sent a generous gift of apology, but Zhao Dezhu made the decision for Su Yi, threw all the gifts away, and asked the gift givers to take them back.
"Mr. Geng, you won't blame me for making my own decision, right?" Zhao Dezhu asked a little nervously, "I also thought about waiting for you to come back and let you decide, but it's too late. It's meaningless to keep the gift for a while and then return or throw it away. I thought if you were here, you would definitely not indulge the little devil, so I just made the decision for you and threw the gift away!"
"In addition, when He Zhiying'er came that time, I also asked Erniu to drive him away in a very tough tone, and didn't say anything good to this devil..."
