In the Military Intelligence Investigation Department, a major is already considered a mid-level backbone officer, especially since Guo Xueyi is Xiang Yan's confidant and a long-time subordinate.
This morning, Xiang Yan even spoke with Ning Zhiheng about Guo Xueyi's commendation. It can be said that for a colonel to speak to a captain on Guo Xueyi's behalf, it is enough to show how much Xiang Yan values Guo Xueyi.
Then Shao Wenguang recounted the details. It turned out that when Guo Xueyi received the order to arrest Xiang Yan, he immediately arranged the arrest operation. Because Tian Liqun was always the last to leave the newspaper office every day, he set up an ambush at the entrance of the Minsheng Daily, waiting for Tian Liqun to leave work at noon to make his move.
The operation was planned without any problems; it could have easily caught Tian Liqun off guard and captured him. However, for some reason, Tian Liqun has not shown up today.
Guo Xueyi, who had been in charge of the monitoring point, couldn't wait any longer and finally came to the entrance of the Minsheng Daily office to check the situation himself.
Just then, Tian Liqun arrived late and walked out of the Minsheng Daily office, where he coincidentally exchanged a glance with Guo Xueyi.
Tian Liqun is an outstanding special agent who has undergone rigorous special agent training and has an exceptional memory, especially for short-term memories of people!
He clearly remembered that just the day before yesterday morning, this person had made eye contact with him in Er Ma Alley, which had aroused his suspicion at one point, but the person then left naturally.
So much so that he spent an extra half hour observing and confirming that there were no problems before he loaded the film.
Unexpectedly, this person suddenly appeared here today. The two looked at each other, and the situation was almost exactly the same as the day before yesterday. Almost instantly, he recognized Guo Xueyi!
However, Guo Xueyi did not realize this. Just like last time, he pretended to be nonchalant and prepared to leave, while simultaneously sending out the arrest signal.
Just as the action team rushed forward, Tian Liqun, who was already on guard, drew his pistol with lightning speed and fired first, hitting Guo Xueyi in the chest. In order to save Guo Xueyi, the other action team members had no choice but to draw their guns and fire as well. Tian Liqun was hit by several bullets and died on the spot!
Guo Xueyi was shot in the chest and did not last long. He died before he could be taken to the hospital, sacrificing his life for his country.
"Does Deputy Section Chief Xiang know about this?" Ning Zhiheng asked. Actually, it was a redundant question, as Deputy Section Chief Xiang, who was in charge of major espionage cases, must have received the news immediately.
"Of course I know. As soon as he received the call, Deputy Section Chief Xiang was furious and smashed the phone. He's currently at the military hospital, checking on the two bodies. Kang Shundong is really in trouble this time. I heard he was given a severe dressing-down by Deputy Section Chief Xiang. As Guo Xueyi's deputy, he'll probably have to bear a lot of responsibility!" Shi Hong said with lingering fear.
"There's nothing we can do about it. He was just unlucky. The capture of an important target failed, and the person in charge of directing the operation died on the spot. The second person in charge will definitely have to take responsibility for this mess."
To be honest, Lao Kang is a good person. He is meticulous, conscientious, and has a strong sense of responsibility. I never expected something like this to happen! Ning Zhiheng couldn't help but sigh. He had worked with Kang Shundong for a few days and had a very good impression of him. It's a pity that he was so unlucky!
Then there's Guo Xueyi. Actually, Ning Zhiheng and Guo Xueyi didn't get along at first and even had a minor disagreement. However, Guo Xueyi quickly realized his place and took the initiative to make amends. The two of them put aside their grudges and got along quite well afterwards. Unexpectedly, they were separated by life and death in the blink of an eye, and Guo Xueyi sacrificed his life for his country!
Suddenly, he remembered that Shi Hong had also received orders to carry out an arrest operation today. He asked, "Brother Hong, how did your operation to arrest Su Yu go today?"
Upon hearing Ning Zhiheng's question, Shi Hong quickly nodded and said, "Our operation went smoothly. We didn't dare to make a move at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs; we ambushed them en route. It was a complete success! The person has been brought back and is now in the interrogation department awaiting trial."
Ning Zhiheng was his supervisor, and he had to report all his actions to Ning Zhiheng immediately.
Ning Zhiheng finally breathed a sigh of relief. If Shi Hong's actions had gone wrong, he would have had to bear some responsibility as well!
