Before she could finish speaking, she shook off Chen Hongmin's hand and quickly dispersed.
Chen Hongmin was immediately startled. He immediately thought of Fan Zhongfu, who had just entered the park. He quickly ran towards the gate. He was not only Fan Zhongfu's driver, but also Fan Zhongfu's personal bodyguard.
Because Fan Zhongfu was an important figure in the Shanghai underground party organization, according to the organization's requirements, he had to have security personnel around him to deal with emergencies and protect his personal safety.
Chen Hongmin quickly saw several agents leading Fan Zhongfu away, and he knew in his heart that something was wrong. They were indeed coming for Fan Zhongfu. He moved to the side, hid behind a flower bed, and quietly squatted down, taking out a pistol from his waist and waiting for them to approach.
He immediately recognized the other party's uniform black Zhongshan suit. This was an agent of the puppet government's secret service headquarters, an intelligence department established by the Japanese specifically to deal with anti-Japanese individuals. Oh no, Fan Zhongfu's identity must have been exposed.
The agents approached quickly and soon passed the flower bed. Just as they turned their backs to Chen Hongmin, Chen Hongmin launched a swift attack.
"Bang!" With a raised hand, a shot was fired, and the bullet accurately struck the back of a spy who was holding Fan Zhongfu hostage.
At the very first shot, the lead agent instinctively rolled to the side in a standard evasive maneuver, his body tumbling across the ground.
"Bang!"
Immediately afterwards, Chen Hongmin's second shot knocked down another agent who was holding Fan Zhongfu hostage. Both shots hit the agents in the back of the heart, killing them instantly.
Chen Hongmin was an accurate marksman and had strong combat capabilities; otherwise, he wouldn't have been chosen by the organization to serve as Fan Zhongfu's bodyguard.
At this point, the other agents realized that even though they were also brave and ruthless, they were just thugs from the Green Gang. They were good at fighting, but when it came to a life-or-death struggle, they were far inferior to the trained agents.
It wasn't until Chen Hongmin fired two shots that they realized what had happened—that someone had attacked them from behind.
Panic ensued, and they scattered in all directions, each seeking cover to avoid the next blow from the gunmen behind them.
Fan Zhongfu immediately realized that it must be his bodyguard Chen Hongmin who was rescuing him. Without turning back, he ran directly into a nearby grove of trees.
Chen Hongmin's initial attack was successful, but the enemy outnumbered them and, after losing two lives, immediately retaliated with guns.
In particular, the leader of the agents reacted extremely quickly. He was Deng Mingxiang, the captain of the Third Action Brigade of the No. 76 Special Agent Headquarters, and also the former head of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics' Suzhou-Shanghai area. After being arrested by the Japanese Special Higher Police in Suzhou, he quickly defected to the enemy and was later sent to the No. 76 Special Agent Headquarters in Shanghai. Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun were recruiting soldiers and urgently needed these trained presidential agents. So Deng Mingxiang was quickly promoted to the captain of the newly formed Third Brigade and became a henchman of the Japanese and the puppet government.
Unlike his untrained subordinates, he was a chief agent in the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS) in the Shanghai-Suzhou area. He was agile and had good tactical skills. After dodging Chen Hongmin's attack, he immediately moved quickly to Chen Hongmin's flank.
Seeing Fan Zhongfu escape, Chen Hongmin felt relieved. Now he had to do everything he could to hold off the enemy and prevent them from having the energy to pursue Fan Zhongfu. The longer he could hold out, the greater the chance that Fan Zhongfu would be able to escape successfully.
However, his hiding place had been exposed by this time. The enemy's retaliatory bullets hit the area around him, occasionally splashing up dirt and stones that hit Chen Hongmin's face, making him wince in pain.
At that moment, he also noticed a figure moving to his side. His heart tightened. There were many of them. If he couldn't control the angle of his fire, he would soon be killed by the crossfire. He quickly raised his gun and fired, while moving deeper into the park, trying to lure the enemy in the opposite direction and give Fan Zhongfu a chance to escape through the park's main entrance.
He moved quickly while firing, and the sound of gunfire echoed throughout the park. Chen Hongmin had rich combat experience and was always able to quickly move to a new position the moment he suppressed the enemy, thus controlling the rhythm of the firefight. Under the attack of Deng Mingxiang and several other agents, he did not fall behind and for a time, the situation was deadlocked.
