Chapter Thirty: Cutting Grass and Eradicating Roots (Three)

  For the past two days, Wu Yunsheng's mood has been extremely irritable. Originally, he and Lu Ri had the same qualifications, and Zhang Shaodong valued him much more than Lu Ri at the time. However, that damned Lu Ri somehow got lucky and was promoted by the Japanese to be the captain of the security team. At this moment, Wu Yunsheng is also angry with himself. If only he had gone with Zhang Shaodong to rescue Lan Guoqiang that day, he would still have a chance to compete with Lu Ri for the position of captain now. Now, he can only strive for the position of vice-captain. Who would have thought that he was being schemed against by others again? Those idiots who used to be so obedient in front of him are now all politely refusing him. These bastards, who used to call him "big brother" and "older brother", are now withdrawing their support at the critical moment, how can he not be angry? Moreover, that Wang Xijiu and Zhao Zuofang, who were previously just a small company commander, now dare to openly compete with Wu Yunsheng for the position of vice-captain after Lu Ri became the captain. How can these two idiots compare to him? They don't have his qualifications or abilities.

  Due to his depression, he decided to come out and relax today. He brought several guards out of the security team's headquarters and headed south. Just as he had just left the security team, Wang Xinglin, who was monitoring outside, had already reported the situation to Zhou Jiantao, the captain of the third squad. Team member Hu Kedong continued to follow them from behind. After clarifying his route, Zhou Jiantao immediately ordered the execution of the assassination operation.

  Just as Wu Yunsheng and others were walking to the old street, they suddenly heard someone shouting behind them: "Not good! The horse is frightened, get out of the way!", at this time a horse-drawn carriage suddenly rushed over from behind Wu Yunsheng and others. Wu Yunsheng and others hurriedly turned around to avoid the oncoming carriage, just in that instant, Wu Yunsheng felt himself being bumped by someone, a child had bumped into his arms, his body hurt, that child said sorry to him, then quickly ran away. The horse-drawn carriage continued to rush forward, not far away the driver controlled the horse, the carriage didn't stop and continued to run forward, in the blink of an eye it disappeared into the alley.

  Because things came too suddenly, Wu Yunsheng and his guards did not react in time. By the time they came to their senses, the carriage driver had already run far away.

  "Damn it! Can't you hurry up? Don't you want to live?", one of the fake soldiers cursed, while others ran to Wu Yunsheng and asked, "Captain, are you okay?"

  "It's nothing! Just now I was bumped by a little beggar, didn't get hurt, let's continue on our way!" Wu Yunsheng said.

  A few people continued to walk slowly and came to the De Ming Xuan. Wu Yunsheng liked to come here to drink tea and listen to opera when he had nothing to do, and today was no exception. As usual, they found a elegant seat, the waiter poured a pot of good tea, one of his men poured him a cup, picked up the teacup, listened to the small tune, tasted the tea, and that's all there is to life. Little did he know that he would soon go see King Yan.

  The little kid who rushed into his arms was not what he thought, that little beggar was the Eighth Route Army's young warrior Huang Qiang. Don't look at him being small, his kung fu is not bad. Among the three children, his kung fu is the best, and he is steady, plus Li Xinmin's careful training, even ordinary soldiers in the third battalion may not be able to beat him.

  This time, Li Xinmin gave him a very important task, which was to assassinate the traitor Wu Yunsheng. Of course, it was not directly killing him, which would bring great trouble to others. Li Xinmin just let Huang Qiang inject the toxic liquid from the syringe into Wu Yunsheng's body.

  The scene where the horse carriage rushed out was arranged by Li Xinmin. The driver was Zhou Jiantiger, the third small team, and Hu Kedong shouted loudly. Huang Qiang held a syringe and disguised himself as a beggar to rush into Wu Yunsheng's arms, taking advantage of the chaos to inject the toxic liquid, and before Wu Yunsheng could react, he had already put away the syringe. Wu Yunsheng only felt a pain in his body and thought it was just being bumped by the beggar. He didn't take it seriously at all. If he had realized it immediately and sought medical attention, he might have had a chance to survive. But he didn't take it seriously and led people on a long journey again, even running to the tea house to drink tea. Even if he knew now that he was poisoned, it would be too late. Wu Yunsheng waited for death to come in leisure.

  The third squad withdrew from the county town quickly after completing their task. However, the second squad had to wait for an opportunity, as their target was now Lu Ri Yi, who had become the new captain of the security team. The situation was completely different from before, with more guards accompanying him on his trips than Zhang Shao Dong and Lan Guo Qing, and he was also extremely cautious when traveling, making it not easy to get rid of him smoothly.

  In such a difficult situation, Li Xinmin would absolutely not take this risk, nor would he let his brothers take it. Because this person's understanding of the base is much less than Zhang Shaodong and Lan Guoqing, the danger is relatively much smaller, so Li Xinmin decided to temporarily cancel the assassination action against Lu Ri.

  For Wang Xiujin, Li Xinmin was someone who absolutely could not be let go. This Wang Xiujin was skilled at gathering intelligence and was an expert in this area. He was very good at disguising himself, and he was very familiar with the situation on the ground, so it was absolutely impossible to leave him behind. On a dark night, three black shadows quietly climbed over the wall of Wang Xiujin's courtyard. At that moment, only the guard room at the front door of Wang Xiujin's residence was still lit, and only Wang Xiujin's bedroom had lights on. The three people quietly arrived at Wang Xiujin's room, one person went forward and lightly opened the door with a knife, and quietly entered the house. The other two hid outside to keep watch for the person who entered the house. At this time, Wang Xiujin was being intimate with his mistress, and the assassin who entered the house lightly lifted the curtain and entered the inner room, taking advantage of their unpreparedness to cut Wang Xiujin's throat with one knife.

  "Get up, you dead devil! Don't stop!" The woman yelled. She didn't know that Wang Xiujin would never move again.

  A stream of fresh blood sprayed onto the woman's face, and she immediately opened her eyes. Just as she was about to say something, Wang Xiujin's corpse fell on top of her. As she opened her mouth to scream, the killer swiftly finished her off with one knife. This was Li Xinmin's account: when carrying out a mission, one must not show mercy; if one shows weakness, the consequences could be severe.

  Having dealt with the couple, the hitman cut off Wang Xiujin's head, turned around and left the house, gently closing the door behind him. With a wave of his hand, the two men standing guard outside immediately followed him, and the three of them climbed over the wall and left the place smoothly.

  These three people were Hu Zi Ming, Zhang Hong Ju and Li Jing Quan of the Fifth Squad. They had long since figured out Wang Xi Jiu's true nature and took advantage of nightfall to enter his residence, swiftly eliminating this cunning traitor.
