Anti-Japanese War, weapons designer at Fengtian Arsenal
Chapter 50 Gold in Hand
Li Qinwu went down to the underground passage again. At this time, the underground passage was full of metal debris, all of which were broken armor-piercing shells.
He came to the gate and observed that there was a big dent at the location that had been attacked by artillery fire. The metal structure around the dent had cracks. It was probably because the steel used to make the gate had impurities and cracks occurred after being hit hard.
In the middle of the depression was a fist-sized hole that went completely through the door. He shone the flashlight inside, and the next scene almost blinded his eyes.
"Wuhu! Gold!!"
Li Qinwu almost jumped three feet high on the spot, and jumped to the MVP position in the third subject. He inserted his finger into the hole and opened a portal behind the vault door.
After using it for such a long time, Li Qinwu has almost figured out the mechanism of the portal. First of all, there can only be one portal, and it can only be opened in a place without material barriers, that is, it cannot be opened through a wall. In addition, the portal can be opened one meter around himself or the anchor point.
At this time, he took advantage of this characteristic and smashed a hole in the vault door. Now there was no physical barrier, and he opened the portal directly inside the door.
Li Qinwu mobilized his men and sent about 50 clones to combat positions, entering the vault and beginning to search.
This vault is quite large, about 400 square meters, with a large number of iron shelves inside, and small iron boxes on the shelves, which contain gold.
Gold bars lie in an iron box, each weighing two kilograms. There are more than 30 shelves in front of you, and the gold is evenly distributed on the shelves.
In addition to gold, there are many glass cabinets and wooden boxes in the vault. Li Qinwu walked to the glass cabinet and looked inside. There was an oversized vase taller than a person. The pattern on the vase was extremely exquisite, and it looked luxurious.
His face changed as he realized that this might be a national treasure.
He rushed to the wooden boxes, opened them and looked inside. In the first box was a bronze object, which looked like a large incense burner, the kind that would be placed in the court when the emperor was in court.
The second box contained bamboo slips. Unlike those that were dug out from tombs and turned into rotten ashes, these bamboo slips were well preserved. Although the marks left by time were obvious on them, the writing was still clearly visible.
The third box contained calligraphy and paintings, which were rolled up and placed in well-packaged painting tubes.
Li Qinwu opened a painting tube and took out a painting. He didn't have much artistic talent and couldn't tell whether it was good or bad. But there was a big seal on the painting. The three words "Wang Xizhi" on the seal almost blinded his eyes. He quickly put it back into the painting tube and put it away properly.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked around. There were more than 40 such large boxes and glass cabinets. They were placed in a more conspicuous position than the 80 tons of gold. Obviously, in the eyes of the owners of these things, they were more precious than 80 tons of gold.
Li Qinwu said to his clone: "Move these cultural relics away first, and be very careful!!"
The clones began to move the things carefully. They had a telepathic connection with Li Qinwu and naturally knew how precious these things were.
Li Qinwu was afraid that the humidity on the island would be too high and would damage the cultural relics, so he opened another portal to the warehouse in Henan and transferred the cultural relics to a safer warehouse.
After properly handling the cultural relics, Li Qinwu ordered his clone to move the gold.
There was so much gold and it was so heavy that the 50 people had no idea how long it would take to move it all.
Li Qinwu was thinking about how to solve the problem, when he suddenly slapped himself on the head. What a stupid guy! Wouldn’t it be better to just let the system absorb it and save the effort of moving things around?
He immediately reached out and touched the gold bars, and all the gold bars he touched disappeared. This was much more efficient. In less than 5 minutes, half of the gold on the scene was gone. His clone system showed that 40 tons of gold was obtained.
However, he did not transfer all the gold into the clone system. The clone system only takes in gold but does not take it out.
It is impossible for him to export 80 tons of gold into clones at once. How can he support more than 8 people? Moreover, it is impossible for him to manage so many clones at once. He needs to develop slowly and gain a foothold. Otherwise, with so many people suddenly appearing, the family planning department of the Nationalist government will be overwhelmed.
Therefore, he had to keep some funds. He wanted to let some of his clones do business and control some industries to produce the materials he needed, such as military uniforms, military boots and carrying equipment for the clones, so that the clones could be self-sufficient.
He also wanted to send some clones to foreign countries to make plans, purchase advanced industrial equipment from European and American powers, and learn military skills. All these things cost money, so he left nearly 40 tons of gold and asked his clones to transport it to the island space.
There were 40 tons of gold left, and the clones were too lazy to move them, so they just rushed in with a bulldozer and pushed the gold into the island space like pushing a stone. The gold bars scattered on the ground were left for people to pick up.
The progress here was very fast. Seeing the bulldozer rushing in and shoveling away, the 40 tons of gold were almost entering the island space. General Li Qinwu cast his gaze to his clone on the roof to observe the situation on the battlefield.
Just now Li Xiao and Li Xiongnu killed the guy who was suspected to be a high-ranking Japanese officer, and the Japanese did not organize any effective attack since then. Moreover, the smoke in the garden had not yet dissipated, and the Japanese were frightened by the automatic firepower in the building and dared not to make any further moves.
Li Qinwu felt that it was time to escape. The gold had already been obtained, so there was no need to tangle with the Japanese here. He would wait until he had grown more skilled and then fight the Japanese next time. By then, he would no longer be a useless person who had only received military training.
The last piece of gold was picked up by the clone, and Li Qinwu ordered all the clones to evacuate, and there was smoke cover in the garden.
The Japanese are very quiet now. Li Qinwu feels that they are holding back a big wave. He thinks that the Japanese may be getting anxious and are perhaps transporting 240mm heavy artillery to bombard Beidaying. His small body cannot handle it.
The clones quickly collected heavy weapons and sent them back to the island space, but before leaving, Li Qinwu planned to leave some gifts for the Japanese.
He piled a ton of TNT found in the Fengtian Arsenal on the 4th floor. He wanted to raze this magnificent building to the ground!
He remembered that after the Marshal's Mansion was occupied by the Japanese, several commanders of the Kwantung Army stayed and worked here. He felt sick just thinking about it.
I left a clone here to guard the explosives, and then I waited for the Japanese troops to attack and see if I could take away a hundred or so Japanese.
More than half an hour later, the smoke in the garden dissipated, and a large number of corpses that were smashed by heavy machine guns were exposed. The Japs were extremely shocked and vowed to kill everyone in the house!
However, this time they did not attack rashly, but instead took special measures, poison gas.
The Japanese chemical soldier wearing a gas mask placed a high-pressure gas cylinder. As soon as he turned the valve, orange-yellow poison gas sprayed out.
Upon seeing this, Li Qinwu cursed the Japs for having no martial ethics and hurriedly evacuated the clone guarding the pile of explosives to the island space, but the portal remained open.
He made the portal very small, almost as big as his little finger, just enough to extend the fuse on the pile of explosives into the island space, and then found a rag soaked in water to block the portal.
What followed was a long wait. Li Qinwu's vision shifted to the clone of another building. From the clone's position, he could see the vicinity of the main building. The garden in front of the main building was filled with yellow poisonous smoke, and the Japanese chemical soldiers wearing gas masks kept releasing poisons.
More than an hour later, the poisonous smoke dissipated and a large number of Japanese soldiers launched an attack from all sides. They wore gas masks and approached the building cautiously.
They didn't know whether the enemy upstairs had gas masks, and they hoped not. The enemy's full automatic firepower caused them too much psychological trauma.
Fortunately, their prayers were useful. Several Japanese squads rushed into the main building without suffering any fire attacks. The Japanese soldiers who rushed into the first floor were overjoyed, thinking that all the enemies had been poisoned to death. However, the next scene confused them. There was not a single enemy in the building, only bullet shells all over the floor.
Where are the enemies?
These devils don’t know, and they will never know.
Li Qinwu saw the Japanese rushing into the main building through his clone, so he pulled the fuse to ignite the explosive pack and then completely closed the portal.
The fuse burned for more than ten seconds, and the explosive pack exploded, detonating one ton of TNT. A shocking explosion occurred, the ground shook, and the air compressed to form a shock wave.
The entire main building of the Young Marshal's Mansion disappeared, the grass, trees, and rocks in the garden were all knocked down, the glass windows of the buildings in the distance were all shattered, and some large bricks and stones launched by the explosion hit the buildings, creating large holes. A large amount of dust filled the area within a radius of four to five hundred meters, as if a sandstorm had arrived.
The two attacking Japanese squadrons were completely evaporated, and the reserve squadron hiding not far away were all killed. One ton of TNT took away nearly 600 Japanese soldiers!
The Japanese could not figure out where this Chinese army came from, how they entered the building with so many heavy weapons and explosives, and where the gold in the underground vault went.
Subsequently, the Japanese high-level officials organized several investigations, but found nothing. The soldiers who carried out the attack mission were all killed or injured, and they could not find anyone to question. The Japanese could only leave a confidential file called "The Explosion at the Young Marshal's Mansion" in the archives.
