Chapter 596: Hold On
Chapter 596: Hold On
Being exposed is never a good thing.
The book specifically mentions Gao Yi and even wants to bring troops to stop him, which at least indicates two problems.
One is that Gao Yi was exposed, which needs no further explanation. The other problem is that Benzi had grasped his whereabouts and came to find him with great precision.
What went wrong and who leaked the information?
Gao Yi had to start worrying about his own safety, because it was obvious that there could be no other channel for the leak except the Americans.
Kant also began to feel nervous from the bottom of his heart. Not many people knew the name Gardener, and the leaker was most likely someone around him.
Someone got off the plane. It was Naven, the person in charge of the CIA in Benzi.
Naven was originally waiting on the plane. As long as the people got on the plane, he would be responsible. But now the people couldn't get on the plane, and Naven, who couldn't wait, could only get off the plane to find out what was going on.
This major general is of high rank and holds a high position. He personally brought people to the airport and bluntly said that he wanted a gardener, which shows that he was also expressing his attitude.
To put it bluntly, we will leave no way out for ourselves or the Americans.
Gao Yi didn't hear everything clearly, but he knew that his situation was already very dangerous. However, he didn't have any weapons on him, not even a gun.
Lucy calmly pulled out the pistol and laid it flat on her lap.
The problem now is that Gao Yi and his group are sitting in several separate cars, and there is no walkie-talkie or something like that to communicate in time, but Gao Yi believes that the others are ready to open fire.
It is impossible to fight against the Japanese army on Japanese territory. If the Americans intend to abandon them, it will only mess up the situation.
"if……"
"Hit the checkmate."
Before Gao Yi finished speaking, Lucy finished his words. She whispered seriously, "I know what to do."
There was also a driver from the Secret Operations Bureau in the car. He was Kant's confidant. He was also very nervous at the moment, and became even more nervous after hearing the conversation between Gao Yi and Lucy.
"Don't be impulsive. We won't let Benzi take you away."
The driver himself was not very confident about what he said. After he finished speaking, he hesitated for a moment and continued: "If there is really a gunshot, I will drive forward and ram it, then drive forward for a while and then turn around and rush back."
The driver described the details in great detail, and he was worried that Gao Yi was beginning to distrust him.
At this moment, Kant suddenly walked towards Gao Yi's car, opened the door, and whispered to the driver: "No matter who gives the order, you are not allowed to hand the person over!"
"Yes, boss."
Kante was forced into a desperate situation and was now fighting openly, but the most important thing was that he had to make his attitude clear to Gao Yi; at least he would never compromise.
After that, Kant closed the car door and said to the officer who came out of the underground bunker to meet him: "Let's go back."
The officer was a little hesitant because Benzi showed no sign of giving way. The two sides were now on the verge of a fight. Any slight provocation would likely lead to a large-scale gunfight.
At this time, Kant raised his gun again, and Naven, who had just gotten off the plane, finally ran over.
"What happened?"
"They want me to hand over the gardener, but I've never heard of this name." Kant added superfluously, but it would have a bad impact if he didn't say this nonsense.
Naven ran out of breath, and after hearing Kant's explanation, he was visibly stunned.
Then Naven turned around and left without hesitation. After he was about ten meters away from the crowd, he took out his satellite phone and called the big boss of the CIA directly.
"Benzi stopped the gardener and demanded that he be handed over to them."
Panetta became anxious when he heard this. He asked in astonishment: "What's going on? Where's the gardener?"
"He's in the car. It's not convenient for him to show up now. I'm worried that if he shows up, he will be beaten to death by Benzi. I believe Benzi will dare to do that."
"Who leaked the secret?"
Panetta did not hesitate at all. He asked mercilessly: "Is there something wrong with our people?"
"impossible!"
Naven was very confident. He whispered, "There are only four people who know the gardener, and they are all extremely reliable. I guarantee that it was not our people who leaked the secret. It can only be the Pentagon, and the most likely one is the Secret Operations Bureau. The one who intercepted him was an Air Force major general, but he was definitely not the main messenger. I suspect that it was an order from the Ministry of Defense. Judging from the attitude of these people, they would not hesitate to open fire to snatch the person away. This is not something that an Air Force major general can decide."
"Protect the gardener at all costs. Give up evacuation for now and let the military protect the gardener. Listen, if I want to take action, I can't take the gardener away unless I step over your dead bodies."
"Yes, protect the Gardener at all costs."
"When necessary, you can reveal your identity and use your identity as a CIA agent to act as a human shield for the gardener. I will contact the Pentagon now. Don't worry, the military will definitely protect the gardener. You have to hold on! You must hold on!"
"Yes, sir, don't worry! No one can take the gardener away unless I die."
The call was hung up, Naven took a deep breath in exasperation, then he took off the intercom on his waist and said urgently: “All our people get off the plane and come here! Bring your guns and come to me as quickly as possible!”
After that, Naven walked to Kant aggressively, and then he said to Major General Benzi in a deep voice: “General, why are you blocking our agents from evacuating? Please give me a reason.”
The major general of Benzi said nothing. He just waved his hand and shouted, "If they want to leave by force, then open fire! Everyone, we can die here, but we must not retreat a single step. Reinforcements will be here soon!"
At this moment, Snyder, who had received the news, had already stepped up his troop deployment. Although he did not want to see Gao Yi being taken away by Benzi, he was also unwilling to take the responsibility of firing the first shot at Benzi.
This responsibility is too heavy for Snyder to bear, and even the Pentagon cannot bear it.
But at this time, Snyder finally received the call he had been waiting for.
"What's wrong with you! How could you let Benzi snatch people from our base? The White House called to express strong dissatisfaction. Now, stop Benzi immediately!"
It was not stated what the purpose of stopping Benzi was, but Snyder received an order that was not an order, he got the attitude of the White House and the Pentagon.
As soon as the phone call was hung up, Snyder shouted, "Come here, send our guards out to grab the people on the runway. Ignore the Benzi and forcibly take the people away. If the Benzi opens fire, then fight back resolutely and never give them a chance to fire a second shot."
After that, Snyder lowered his voice and whispered to his confidant: "The gardener's identity has been leaked. Not many people know the gardener's identity. Now you go and find out who leaked the information. This matter is very important. You must be quick and keep it confidential."
