He Jiayin and Jun Nanzhu finally found a boat, but before they could board, they were chased down. They kept setting up smoke bombs along the way.
But others aren't stupid either; they know these people will definitely return to China, and the only options are by land, sea, or air.
They had already given up on aviation when they took people hostage.
That left only two routes: land and sea. They stole two vehicles and drove off, and those two vehicles were heading towards the defense line.
They deployed all their forces along the land route and kept chasing the two vehicles.
Yesterday they finally blew out the car's tires, thinking they could then catch Ms. Liu and negotiate with her.
If you don't want the people inside the car, just detonate the car and blow everyone nearby to smithereens.
The higher-ups were shocked; Ms. Liu's death on their territory was not a good thing.
Don't assume that just because other countries are still asleep, they lack the ability to retaliate.
In order to find out whether Ms. Liu was in the two cars, they spent half a day and found that no matter how they pieced the cars together, there was only one person in each car.
After a heated argument, they finally realized that Ms. Liu had gone to the beach.
The order was issued quickly; if Ms. Liu could not be found, their faction would lose support.
Then their killing of the leader would be made public, and the people who would die would not be just one or two, but the entire faction would be dragged down with them.
It's better for my fellow Daoist to die than for me to die. We must make Ms. Liu take the blame and bring her to negotiate.
If they had reacted ten minutes slower, all of He Jiale's people would have been safely on the ship. Unfortunately, there are no "ifs" in this timeframe; it was just ten minutes.
Looking at the short distance behind them, He Jiayin pushed her mother back: "Mom, you get on the boat first, we can hold them off."
Ms. Liu pulled out two guns and fired two shots, one to the left and one to the right, and the two men fell to the ground. She could bring them all back with her; how could she bear to let the men who had been with her for more than ten years die in a foreign land?
He Jiayin said as she fired her gun, "Amazing! Mom, just like Aunt Jun said, you're a sharpshooter!"
Ms. Liu tried her best to suppress her smile: "That's all in the past. I haven't handled a gun in so long, I'm rusty!"
The mother and daughter were working together for the first time, and after the initial excitement, they quickly lost track of time to chat.
The enemy deployed too many people; seeing the dense mass of heads, even if they used all their bullets, they wouldn't be able to break through.
Ms. Liu's four bodyguards surrounded the three of them: "Minister, get on the ship immediately, and Yinyin and Nanzhu too, quick!"
With tears in her eyes, Ms. Liu fired the last shot. She pushed her daughter and son-in-law aside, glanced at the bodyguards, and ultimately realized she couldn't go back together. She gritted her teeth and said, "Let's go!"
Ms. Liu ran behind, and she and the bodyguards shared the same thought: the two young people must not be harmed. Jun Nanzhu saw this and deliberately fired a follow-up shot behind them, while putting himself in the back.
He Jiayin understood her husband's thoughts. She completely entrusted her back to Jun Nanzhu and ran with her mother. Her mother couldn't get into trouble. If something happened to her, her father would definitely be in a very passive position!
Ten steps away, she heard a soft groan. No matter how faint the sound was, she could still recognize it as Jun Nanzhu's voice. She wanted to turn around and look at her husband, but she couldn't!
She continued running, and after pushing her mother into the boat, Ms. Liu was about to turn back when He Jiayin quickly gave her mother a task: "Mom, you go and start the boat, I don't know how to drive!"
Ms. Liu bit her lip and ran to start the boat. So many people's sacrifices couldn't be wasted because of her. He Jiayin stood on the deck and was pleasantly surprised to see that Jun Nanzhu was still able to run.
It was good that he could run away; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to go down and pull him up. In that case, Jun Nanzhu would have been stuck in this country forever. She quickly fired shot after shot to eliminate the hidden dangers behind Jun Nanzhu.
This bought Jun Nanzhu time to run over. As soon as Jun Nanzhu boarded the ship, it set sail. At the same time, He Jiayin collapsed on the deck.
Jun Nanzhu was shocked: "Yinyin, what's wrong with you?"
He Jiayin smiled at Jun Nanzhu: "You must return to our country with Mom and take me back with you!"
When Jun Nanzhu saw He Jiayin's left hand covering her chest, with blood trickling through her fingers, his face turned deathly pale.
Jun Nanzhu picked up He Jiayin, pulled her hands away, and thought, "This is the heart, but it doesn't seem to be."
His hands trembled as he applied hemostatic medicine to Yinyin and bandaged her up: "Yinyin, we promised to grow old together, you have to hold on."
He Jiayin used her blurry eyes to locate his injury and touched his bleeding arm: "Luckily it's his left hand."
"Yinyin, we are very lucky. Your location isn't the heart. You must hold on, you must hold on."
Ms. Liu steadied the steering wheel, ran out, and was immediately met with a devastating sight: "Yinyin!"
Jun Nanzhu calmed down: "Mom, Yinyin is alright. You steer the boat well now, and we'll get back as soon as possible so that Yinyin can be saved. They'll catch up soon, so I'll go and keep watch."
Ms. Liu glanced at He Jiayin, then turned back to steer the boat. Their lives had been bought with the lives of more than a dozen people; she couldn't give up so easily.
The ship was moving very fast, but the enemy arrived very quickly as well. Perhaps out of consideration for Ms. Liu, they dared not fire their cannons, but instead fired shot after shot at Jun Nanzhu.
Jun Nanzhu had limited ammunition and dared not fire indiscriminately. He kept dodging and aiming, and then fired a shot at a barrel.
Then there was a loud bang, and the ship on this side started to shake. Jun Nanzhu fell onto the deck.
He rushed to check on He Jiayin and saw her lying on the deck. He quickly climbed over and hugged her in his arms.
He glanced at the wound, and saw the blood spreading again. His heart skipped a beat. He unwrapped the bandage and reapplied the medicine.
He took a breath and bandaged his own wound.
The other side has wrecked one of their ships, so they won't be able to catch up so quickly for the time being.
His biggest worry right now is whether He Jiayin's injuries will allow her to make it back for treatment.
He carefully carried He Jiayin to Ms. Liu's place. When Ms. Liu saw him, she praised him, "One gun, one boat, you have the demeanor of your father!"
Seeing He Jiayin's defeated face again, her voice choked with emotion: "Can Yinyin hold on until we get back?"
She had witnessed too many life-and-death situations and thought she could face them calmly, but seeing her daughter like this, she felt extremely sad.
"Yes, Yinyin will definitely make it back. Mom, you just need to steer the boat well. They should have sent more people. I'm going out now."
Ms. Liu stopped Jun Nanzhu: "I'll teach you how to sail the boat. You can sail it, and I'll go out. You're all still young, and the country needs you!"
Jun Nanzhu shook his head: "Mom, you forgot, there's a small path here that I can't drive on. Just keep going until we get there!"
Ms. Liu could only watch helplessly as Jun Nanzhu went out again. She glanced at her daughter, her eyes hardening with determination.
