Both sides were engaged in fierce fighting, but the Japanese bodyguards quickly found themselves at a disadvantage.
The team members at the Shanghai station were well-prepared, all equipped with long guns, which gave them a significant advantage in the firefight.
In this era, handgun bullets could hardly guarantee accuracy beyond 30 meters, and their lethality decreased drastically beyond 50 meters. Such an attack would only create a small dent in the body of a car, and even hitting a speeding wheel posed virtually no threat.
However, the bullets from the rifles were powerful, and the rifles of the operatives were very lethal to the Japanese bodyguards. At a distance of several dozen meters, they had no effect at all. In addition, the agents of the intelligence station had been trained in marksmanship by bullets, and their shooting accuracy was very high.
In less than thirty seconds, two tires of the bodyguard vehicle behind were punctured, and one bodyguard was shot in the chest, his head slumped against the window.
This was only because Wei Xuehai's vehicle somewhat blocked the firing line of the team members behind him; otherwise, the situation would have been much worse.
Ning Zhiheng's car was not damaged thanks to the protection of his bodyguards' vehicles, but if things continued to develop like this, the situation would become very bad. His vehicle was always within the range of long guns and was far from being out of danger.
"Speed up! Hurry up!" Kimura Maki urged repeatedly.
He was well aware of the chairman's high status, and if he were to be harmed in this attack, he and the others would face severe punishment with unimaginable consequences. He was determined to ensure the chairman's safety, even at the cost of everyone's lives.
Driver Xiaoyuan nervously watched the road ahead, driving at top speed to create as much distance as possible, but the vehicles behind were also chasing very closely, making it difficult to shake them off for the time being.
At this moment, the bodyguard vehicle behind finally couldn't hold on due to the tires. The driver simply gritted his teeth, stepped on the brake, turned the steering wheel sideways, and the entire vehicle came to a stop in the middle of the road, blocking most of the street.
Seeing that escape was hopeless, the bodyguards decided to hold off the pursuers and cover the chairman's escape.
The driver and the remaining two bodyguards opened the back door and jumped out, using the car as cover. They fired their pistols repeatedly to thwart the attacks from their pursuers.
Without the slightest hesitation, Wei Xuehai shouted, "Charge! Smash it! We can't let Fujiwara get away!"
The vehicle showed no sign of slowing down and crashed into the rear of the bodyguard's vehicle at an extremely high speed.
The team's driver was very experienced. He knew that the front of the car was too heavy to break through the road, while the rear was too light and could be broken with enough impact force.
Although the three Japanese bodyguards shattered the windows of the pursuing vehicle with their pistols, they were still unable to stop the vehicle's impact.
A loud crash was heard as the rear of the car was hit hard. The driver floored the accelerator and squeezed a path through the gap, speeding past the other side.
However, during their brief stop, Wei Xuehai and his team members in the car were subjected to concentrated fire from three Japanese bodyguards.
The pistol had a clear advantage in close-quarters combat. Its extremely high rate of fire caused considerable losses for the team members in the vehicle. In just a moment, two of Wei Xuehai's teammates were hit by bullets one after another, blood splattered, and they stopped moving after a few muffled groans.
Wei Xuehai was anxious, but his main target was Fujiwara Tomohito ahead. He ignored the three Japanese bodyguards and shouted, "Don't stop, chase after him!"
The car's engine roared as it sped off.
The pursuing vehicles behind them also crashed into the rear of the bodyguards' vehicles at extremely high speeds, completely smashing open a road. Every time a car passed by, it engaged in fierce gunfights with the Japanese bodyguards, with dense gunfire mingling together incessantly.
Soon, the three Japanese bodyguards, having lost their cover, were hit by multiple bullets and fell into pools of blood.
The team members suffered two casualties but managed to get through the obstacle and continue their pursuit of Ning Zhiheng's vehicle.
Fortunately, after this ambush, Ning Zhiheng's car had already left the pursuing car some distance behind, which prevented Wei Xuehai from hitting his target with his multiple shots.
"Speed up! Let's hold on a little longer, we'll be at the police station soon!" Kimura Maki shouted.
He opened the car window, stuck his hand out, and kept firing backwards, trying to stop the other party from getting closer.
At this moment, besides the driver, only his bodyguard was left in the car, with Ning Zhiheng and Hirao Daichi in the back seat.
Hirao Daichi was also in a panic. He knew that he couldn't let anything happen to the chairman, or he would be finished.
He also pulled out a gun from his waist and fired at the rear through another car window. Most of the Japanese had received gun training, and Hirao Daichi's marksmanship was quite good. For a while, Wei Xuehai was unable to raise his head.
The driver beside him was an experienced special agent. He kept his head very low, using his peripheral vision to control the vehicle's movement, keeping a close watch on Ning Zhiheng's car.
Seeing that the gap between him and the vehicles in front was widening and that he was being pushed back, Wei Xuehai became increasingly anxious. He shouted, "Make way for the vehicles in front, let those behind catch up!"
Upon hearing this, the driver quickly moved aside, and a car behind him pulled up. They fired side by side, instantly increasing the firepower.
Although the rifle had a slow rate of fire, the bullets were powerful, and it quickly wrecked the back of Ning Zhiheng's car, shattering the rear window and bursting one of the tires, causing the car to slow down immediately.
