Under the moonlight, three jeeps were speeding along the road.
The driver of the lead car was Yoshino Ibi, and the co-pilot was Kazuki Yamamoto.
The two jeeps behind him were nine Shinozuka's close guards.
The eleven of them are the main force responsible for supporting Xu San.
In order to prevent accidents, Shinozuka specially deployed a brigade of troops to hold them back.
It's just that this brigade will not be used unless it is absolutely necessary.
However, Yamamoto still ordered them to march urgently and divide their troops into three groups to encircle the place where Xu San was ambushed.
Yamamoto's injury has not yet recovered, and he was uncomfortable with the bumps in the car, but he still gritted his teeth and endured it, not wanting others to notice the clues.
However, Yoshinohan saw this and deliberately slowed down the car.
Yamamoto looked at the reversing scenery outside the car window and shouted, "Baga! Why are you slowing down?"
"Colonel, your injury!"
"Speed up! It doesn't matter if I'm injured! We're only ten minutes away! Go at full speed! Now there are only four of Xu Sanjun and the others left! They may be wiped out by those ninjas at any time!"
Yamamoto growled excitedly. After the roar, the corners of his mouth twitched unnaturally. It may be that the movement just now was too big and caused the wound.
"Hi!" Yoshino agreed and stepped on the accelerator!
"Colonel! Why don't you transfer a few more people from Ping'an County? Although there are Lord Shinozuka's confidants behind them, I don't think their combat effectiveness is very good!"
"The special operations team members in Ping'an County are all new now! If they are transferred here, I'm afraid Mr. Shinozuka will be unhappy. After all, the amount of this batch of gold is so large that some people can ignore their status and don't even have a face. Got it!"
"Sir, do you know who it is?"
"I don't know!" Yamamoto said with a smile, "and I didn't say anything!"
"Hi!" After Yoshino finished speaking, he concentrated on driving. There were no street lights on the roads at night these days, so driving at night required full concentration.
After a while, three jeeps stopped on the side of the road.
This place is probably more than 300 meters away from Kurosaki's No. 1 car.
Yoshinohan immediately opened the car door, jumped out, and then walked around the front of the car, trying to help Yamamoto, but was kicked by Yamamoto, "Hurry up and see if Xu San and the others are still alive?"
"Hi!" Yoshino turned around and jumped off the road, entering the depths of the jungle to find Xu San and the others.
Yamamoto got out of the car by himself after Yoshino left.
A second lieutenant officer trotted to his side, "Colonel Yamamoto, if you have any orders, please give them!"
Yamamoto pointed to the road and said, "Demining!"
"Hi!" The second lieutenant lowered his head and accepted the order, then took out a mine detector from the car and began to carefully clear the mines.
The mine detectors of this period had just been invented not long ago, and the technology was still very immature. Therefore, even with this equipment, the second lieutenant and the other six Japs still carefully cleared mines, while the remaining two Japs guarded Yamamoto. Be around and act as a guard.
It was dark and the light was extremely poor, which made clearing mines extremely difficult. Therefore, although there was only a 300-meter section, the progress was very slow.
After ten minutes, we have only advanced less than 20 meters.
Yamamoto sighed in his heart, feeling that just as Yoshino said, personal guards like Shinozuka are really not good.
A few minutes later, Yoshino came back with Xu San.
Seeing that Xu San was fine, Yamamoto said, "Let's talk in the car."
Xu San nodded and followed Yamamoto into his jeep.
After closing the car door and rolling up the window, Yamamoto asked in a low voice, "The gold was not lost, right?"
Xu San frowned and said, "Car No. 1 was hit by a mine, and other vehicles were damaged to varying degrees. There must be some losses, but compared to the figure of seven tons, it is minimal."
After listening to Xu San's words, Yamamoto finally let go of his worries, "If it's a large number, it's no problem! Thank you for your hard work this time. Whatever you need, as long as it's not excessive, I will satisfy you!"
"It's not hard to be loyal to Tian Locust! I don't want any benefits." Xu Sanyan said with a heartfelt laugh.
Yamamoto sneered, "Really!? If you really don't want the benefits, I wonder if you embezzled the remaining three tons of gold?"
"Ah~ It's unfair! Colonel Yamamoto, that's three tons! Three tons! I'm not a god, how can I transport it, how can I hide it! You have to know that in order to pull this gold, those cars in Yingge have been modified. Yes! Although I, Xu San, have some abilities, I really know nothing about modifying vehicles!"
"Haha~" Yamamoto continued to sneer!
"Then lend Kenji Kurosaki to me as a bodyguard."
"With your skills, do you need bodyguards? You even chopped off an arm of the famous Hattori Hanzo!" Yamamoto stared at Xu San and said meaningfully.
"It's because I cut off his arm that I need a bodyguard! You have to know that that is Hattori Hanzo, Hattori Hanzo! He is the top person in the ninja circle. Now that I have provoked him, can I feel at ease? It's not too much to ask for a bodyguard. Bar."
Yamamoto frowned.
He didn't want to borrow it. He knew that Xu San was borrowing money from Jingzhou from Liu Bei, and he would not return it if he borrowed it.
But who told me to be mean-mouthed just now? I had to give him benefits.
Now that people have said it, it's not too much. They just want a person, and there's no way I can say no to it.
Although Kurosaki's marksmanship is superb, there are still people in the special forces who can replace him. Therefore, Yamamoto finally gritted his teeth and said, "One year! I will only lend it to you for one year! After one year, Kenji Kurosaki must return to the team! Also, , during this year, you will be responsible for all his military pay and ammunition consumption!"
Seeing Yamamoto's promise, Xu San immediately answered, "Hi! No problem!"
One less!
Yamamoto felt a pain in his body. There were not many veterans in the special operations team, and this one was missing.
Yamamoto took a breath, a pained expression on his face.
Looking at Yamamoto's expression, Xu San knew that he was in pain.
However, he pretended not to know and asked in a concerned tone, "Colonel Yamamoto, are you still feeling well?"
"It's not an injury! It's a toothache!" Yamamoto didn't tell the truth, but said it casually.
"Toothache is not a disease. When it hurts, it can be fatal! If Yamamoto is too far away, he can find a drug store and buy some bezoar. When the toothache hurts, just rub it on the gums. The pain relief will be immediate."
Seeing what Xu San said was impressive, Yamamoto was really tempted by this native method, because he also had a toothache, and the feeling was really something people didn't want to remember.
"Really? Then I'll go back and buy some to try."
"boom!"
A sudden loud noise made Yamamoto instinctively draw his gun and look at the direction of the explosion.
But before he could see what was going on, he saw Xu San rushing toward him, shouting at the same time, "Captain, be careful!"
The car door was opened, and Xu San flew out with Yamamoto in his arms, and then rolled on the ground seven or eight times before stopping.
