Chapter 279 A Thrilling Chase
“We’ve already arrived at Hong Kong Island, why can’t we go back by land or sea?” Xiao He didn’t understand Lu Mingzheng’s arrangement.
Lu Mingzheng said with a heavy heart, "The Hong Kong government has received notification from the United States to assist in the arrest of the suspect. They have colluded and blocked all land, sea and air routes."
We can only leave Hong Kong Island by private jet, under the guise of going to an island for vacation.
"Why should we be governed by foreigners on our own land? Hong Kong Island is our country's territory!" Xiao He was furious.
"There's nothing we can do; it's a legacy of history. We can only swallow our anger for now."
"Hmph." Even the usually composed Jin Sheng couldn't help but snort. "It's a pity I wasn't born a hundred years ago, otherwise I would have definitely beaten those invaders to a pulp."
Jiang Ruzhen also sighed deeply, saying that the weakness and backwardness of the previous government had led to a series of unequal treaties.
Since Hong Kong Island has not yet returned to the embrace of the motherland, they must abide by the rules of the local government.
Fortunately, there are countless patriotic overseas Chinese compatriots here who are willing to help them overcome their difficulties.
It's truly moving; no wonder people say that Chinese people are so united.
The future prosperity of the country cannot be separated from the support and construction of these patriotic overseas Chinese. They support the country in various ways and are also lovely people.
They didn't have time to think it over; time was precious.
The group hurriedly boarded the plane. The Lu family is a well-known tycoon family in Hong Kong Island, and their family members travel by plane without undergoing rigorous testing.
Lu Mingzheng personally piloted the helicopter, which slowly took off, carrying Jiang Ruzhen and the other two, preparing to circle around and land in Zhucheng.
But just as their plane took off, a large number of American police officers ran up to the ground and started firing indiscriminately at their plane.
With his superb dodging skills and agile maneuvering in the air, Lu Mingzheng quickly left those people behind.
Before Jiang Ruzhen and the others could even rejoice, two American fighter jets suddenly took off from nowhere and chased after them.
Lu Mingzheng increased the speed to the maximum, but how could a helicopter be as fast as a fighter jet? Soon their plane was sandwiched between two fighter jets.
The pilots on the fighter jets were extremely arrogant, demanding that the helicopter return to base in a very tough tone and attitude.
Even after entering Chinese airspace, they remained arrogant.
"The helicopter on the other side, return to base immediately, or shoot it down."
Hearing the shouts from the other side, Jiang Ruzhen, Jin Sheng, and Xiao He clenched their fists in anger.
"That's too arrogant, I'm going to smash his head in!" Xiao He shouted as he got up and leaned out the window.
"Don't cause any more trouble. I've already contacted the air force in Zhucheng. They'll come back to pick us up," Lu Mingzheng quickly advised.
Now, the two countries are in confrontation, and any minor friction can cause a huge political uproar.
"They're absolutely infuriating!" Xiao He said, punching the fuselage in frustration.
Jin Sheng's face was also dark, staring at the British fighter jets not far away, lost in thought.
They were only going to bring back things from their motherland, but they encountered many obstacles.
Not only was he relentlessly pursued in the U.S., but back in Hong Kong, he was also subjected to threats and coercion right up to his face.
They simply couldn't swallow this insult.
Jiang Ruzhen felt a deep sense of sorrow, keenly aware of the country's predicament at the time. Despite its assertive stance, the country was indeed no match for established nations in terms of advanced weaponry.
If we fall behind, we will be bullied. If this happened forty years from now, how would these beasts dare to openly provoke us?
"You have entered our country's aviation territory. Please evacuate immediately. Please evacuate immediately."
Just then, two fighter jets from Zhucheng also flew out to meet them.
They spoke up to remind them and tried to drive the outdoor aircraft away.
Unexpectedly, the two foreign aircraft started circling around our fighter jets.
"We can fly wherever we want," the other side continued to provoke.
As the helicopter got closer and closer to Zhucheng, the two outboard aircraft even deliberately flew over at high speed, creating air currents in an attempt to overturn the helicopter.
Seeing that the situation was becoming increasingly dangerous, the air force pilots forcefully rammed their fighter jets into the two foreign aircraft.
"Lu Mingzheng, what are they doing?" Jiang Ruzhen exclaimed in surprise.
"They...want to defend the dignity of their motherland with their lives!" Lu Mingzheng said haltingly, his voice choked with rage. "In a moment, if things get dangerous, you all parachute out immediately. I'll cover your retreat..."
Is Lu Mingzheng also determined to fight to the death against the two foreign aircraft?
"No. We can't let our soldiers sacrifice themselves in vain. Fourth Senior Brother, let's do it!" Jiang Ruzhen thought of the scenes of young pilots sacrificing their lives that she had seen in some patriotic movies in later years, and her eyes immediately filled with tears.
Wherever ordinary people enjoy peace and tranquility, it is because someone is bearing the burden for them.
Now that she has the power to prevent these tragedies from happening, she will certainly not stand idly by.
"good."
Before Lu Mingzheng could react, Jin Sheng and Jiang Ruzhen made their moves at the same time.
Two aircraft were involved in an accident. One of them was struck by a flock of birds, and the pilot was knocked unconscious on the spot. The aircraft crashed into the sea.
Meanwhile, the pilot of the other foreign plane clutched his head and screamed in agony. The plane also went out of control and crashed into the sea.
Things developed incredibly quickly; before Lu Mingzheng and his team could even react, the two foreign planes had already disappeared into the waves.
Completely bewildered, they maneuvered the plane to land at Zhucheng Military Airport.
After the roar of the planes stopped, Lu Mingzheng came to his senses and asked them, "What exactly happened just now?"
"This is a secret of our Ninth Bureau, and we cannot disclose it."
Jin Sheng waved his hand solemnly, indicating that this was confidential.
Although Lu Mingzheng and the other two pilots were full of doubts, they understood that this was a state secret and not something they could easily find out.
As soon as Jiang Ruzhen and others got off the plane, they were surrounded by military leaders.
"Is the mission complete?" the leader asked anxiously.
“It’s done.” Jin Sheng nodded in response.
"Alright, I'll send someone to put you on a military plane right now and fly directly to the capital."
Jiang Ruzhen and the other two were immediately taken out again, boarded a military helicopter, and the helicopter took off and flew towards the capital.
Jiang Ruzhen didn't even have time to say goodbye to Lu Mingzheng. She sat by the window and waved vigorously at Lu Mingzheng.
Until the shadow on the ground turned into an ant.
The meeting was rushed, and she was extremely nervous throughout; she and Lu Mingzheng didn't even get a proper chance to talk.
Both of them felt regret, but they also knew there was another way to meet, so they weren't particularly reluctant to part.
Back in the capital, the three of them went to the leader's office again to hand over the task.
After it was all over, everyone went home.
Jiang Ruzhen anticipated that Lu Mingzheng might come tonight, so she took a shower early and went to bed to wait.
As promised, Lu Mingzheng arrived. Before Jiang Ruzhen could even get close, Lu Mingzheng first inspected her from head to toe.
"Jiang Ruzhen, you're really something, participating in such a dangerous mission without even telling me."
