1890 King of Southeast Asia

Time goes back to mid-to-late January, when the Third Regiment attacked Changle Town.

"Is this a lock buckle? Isn't this thing made of copper?" Hou Dehui took out a golden ring handle from a pile of items.

"Rich people also use gold, maybe because Jiangnan is rich?" The chief of staff held the roster in his hand and counted the items one by one.

"Is this... a ruby? Wow, it's so big, the ones on the general's scepter are not so big, right?"

"What a rich man, such a good gem is used as a button."

"I used to hear people say that wearing gold and silver, wearing gold and silver, today I have learned something new."

Hou Dehui threw the things back into the box, clapped his hands, and was very excited.

Changle Town is not big, even a little pocket-sized. A main street runs east-west, connecting the remaining two streets, which is the whole of Changle Town, and there is not even an earthen wall.

From the beginning of the attack, the soldiers of the Third Regiment took only two hours to basically clear Changle Town.

You know, Changle Town has a battalion of 1,200 Japanese soldiers.

The attacking third regiment was in a hurry, and the artillery was less than 2,000 people. A battalion was also assigned to the rear, and only one battalion actually attacked.

However, the difference is that after the third regiment was equipped with artillery, it was already an independent combat unit, but with fewer people.

Under normal circumstances, the independent combat capability of a Japanese battalion was very weak. After all, at the battalion level, the Japanese army only installed two artillery pieces, no machine guns, and all riflemen.

It was a battalion with firepower configured according to the standard of garrison, but its cavalry was transferred away, and most of the soldiers were unwelcome engineers - after all, they were mainly engaged in transportation work, which was very safe and had extremely weak combat effectiveness.

The Japanese had not been completely controlled by the fanatical war sentiment, and without the blessing of the "invincible myth", there was no pressure to surrender.

The artillery bombardment of the third regiment basically destroyed the Japanese outer positions, and in their cognition, Changle Town was in the rear of the Japanese army and was very safe, so they did not build large-scale defensive fortifications in the town.

After the bombardment, the Japanese used the houses to hold their ground in street fighting.

The soldiers of the Third Regiment faced street fighting and strictly followed the street fighting training, clearing the room by room.

Use rocket launchers at medium and long distances, and grenades at close range, anyway, use explosions to clear the threat first.

After two hours, the remaining Japanese troops chose to surrender under the pressure of the Third Regiment.

The Third Regiment captured more than 700 wounded soldiers in a brigade of 1,200 people, of which at least 500 were unharmed.

"The inventory is complete. These things can be sold for about 80 million or 100 million yuan at ordinary times." The chief of staff put down the booklet and moved his wrist.

He was talking about US dollars, which is converted into gold, 150 million grams, 150,000 kilograms, and 150 tons of gold.

When Japan carried out currency reform, the actual gold reserves did not seem to be so much.

However, in fact, the chief of staff's estimate was not accurate. A large part of these things were artworks and cultural relics, and their value was even higher.

However, now that war is raging, they cannot be sold at a price, and selling them directly will be lower than this price.

"Captain, look." Li Yan came over with a box in his arms with some difficulty.

"What is it?" Hou Dehui took the box curiously, and his hand sank. He didn't drop it because he was prepared.

"Some bronze artifacts, I dug them out from a collapsed room, covered with a pile of debris." Li Yan said.

"Bronze artifacts?" Hou Dehui knew about bronze artifacts even if he knew everything.

He gently put down the box and opened it. There were a lot of utensils in the box, which were well maintained. It seemed that they were the collections of some people.

"What is this?"

"It should be a pot... or a basin?"

"Are these wine glasses? What are they called? Wine bottles?"

"I don't know, this thing has to be sent back, and it should be well preserved. Be careful..."

"..."

Hou Dehui and the chief of staff discussed this thing for a while, carefully holding it in their hands to observe it.

Although it was considered careful in their eyes, if this action was seen by a group of old scholars from the Nanhua Royal Museum, they might give him a big slap in the face.

When teaching Chinese and history in Nanhua schools, many things can only be represented by abstract paintings, because there are no such things and they are not easy to buy in the public.

Just like these bronzes, people who know the value of things keep them for themselves, and those who don’t know the value of things don’t think they are good things.

After all, in this era, on the one hand, there are countless antiques and cultural relics, and unless they are treasures, they are not precious.

On the other hand, the Qing Empire’s policy of keeping the people ignorant for more than 200 years, literary inquisition, suppression of traditional culture, and arbitrary modification of history have made it impossible for people to realize the preciousness of these things.

After the establishment of the revolutionary army, some cultural relics were found, but the revolutionary army was busy afterwards and had no time to take care of them.

"Captain, Chief of Staff, when I found this box, it was covered by debris and placed in a collapsed house."

"If the field hospital hadn't needed some building materials, I would have gone to the collapsed house to dismantle the wood and accidentally kicked this box. I wouldn't have known about it."

"It's a broken house. If nothing unexpected happens, no one will touch it before the town's reconstruction begins."

"This box is similar to these boxes of gold, silver and jewelry. It is very likely from the same batch."

"These prisoners are not very honest!" Li Yan said meaningfully.

"These things are all left by our ancestors. This is a thousand years ago, they used to drink."

"Since it is what the old ancestors stayed, they couldn't let those people take it away." The chief of staff held the wine bottle and looked at the pattern above.

"You said, we can do these delicate things thousands of years ago. Why didn't we make a machine?" Chief of Staff picked up single -piece glasses, watched the lifelike beast on the wine bottle, and sighed.

"Do you ask me this? You should ask those university professors." Hou Dehui shook his head, put down the utensils in his hand, and turned to look at Li Yan.

"I trial all the captives separately, what I hid, where I was hidden, and asked me all." Hou Dehui also believed that this was hidden by the Japanese.

If you can hide one, you can hide two.

And what is hidden is definitely more precious than placed in the bright place.

"Few people understand Japanese, and we are full of two." Li Yan scratched his head.

There are two people who understand Japanese in the third regiment. The first is Hiuda Kojiro, and there are two soldiers who can only say a little bit. Two and two knives can barely be considered a whole.

The captives were 700 people, and they did not know that the day was reviewed.

"In this way, go and pick a few that have been resisting, shoot, kill chickens and monkeys, see what can be obtained."

"Then pass the news to the teacher department, let them send someone to receive, and keep these things, we will stay in Changle now."

Hou Dehui thought about it, and the communication was troublesome, and there was no way to get up.

"yes!"

After a while, there were a few gunshots from the outside, and then the voice of Hiuda Ichiro. Hou Dehui nodded, put the bronze ware back into the box, and lock it.

"A regiment of the first light infantry division occupied Chang Le, blocking the connection between the Third Division and the Eighth Division."

"The Beiyang Army does not know why, and stays in Tongzhou without any action, but has improved the alert."

"The first light infantry division has repelled the Eighth Division three offensives, and the eighth division's warning forces in the river are getting less and less."

"The first batch of captives of 142 people had been sent, and the transport ship of the second division of the guards was about to return. I stuffed the captives." Huang Zhengfang put down the memo.

"By the way, after the third group of the first light infantry division captured Chang Le, he found a large number of cultural relics of financial goods. According to the interrogation, the Eighth Division wanted to take these things to the seaside and use ships to go to Japan." Huang Zhengfang patted his head and added.

"Is the warning forces on the river?" Zheng Lei didn't care about the property, but heard that the eighth division's alert troops in the river became less.

"The scouts and patrols observed today have reduced nearly 30 %, and most of them are concentrated in the port." Huang Zhengfang nodded.

"So fast, can the Japanese can't stand up?" Zheng Lei touched his chin.

"Order, the second and third light infantry division began to prepare for landing. In the early morning of Tomorrow, they will attack Haimen Port!" Zheng Lei said.

"Tomorrow?" Huang Zhengfang opened his mouth.

The entire two divisions landing is very tedious. One night is enough to plug some people on the boat. Do n’t think about logistics or something.

"The Yangtze River Fleet needs to patrol along the line to prevent the enemy from smuggling, and we must continue to pressure the Beiyang direction. We may not have enough gunboat to cover landing." Huang Zhengfang said.

"Tomorrow morning, the Air Force will bomb the airdrop bombs at the Japanese, and then mobilize two gunboats, which is basically enough."

"After opening up the landing field, the artillery group of the Second Guard Division will follow up quickly. In addition to attacking, the second and third divisions must be responsible for building the road."

At 6 o'clock in the morning, the sky was dark in January, and the sky faintly appeared blue.

In the southwestern suburbs of Shanghai, the twelve -twelve -type 09 three -round large bombers have been prepared before taking off.

"The engine is normal, the wing is normal, the controller is normal, and the meter reading is normal ..."

"Start cheer, fill the bomb."

A refueling vehicle began to refuel the bomber.

There are three 120 -horsepower engines in the 09 -type bomber. When the 890 kg bomb is full, the speed is 127 kilometers and the maximum range is 600 kilometers. (Can be overloaded)

It is an emergency item that is changed on the basis of the 08 type four -round heavy bomber. The 08 Type 08 was finally identified as a failure for various reasons. Only four were purchased. After removing the weapon to strengthen the fuselage, it was only used for training.

At 7.30, the sun came out.

"Come on."

"The inspection is complete."

"Put on!"

Sudden Weng Weng Weng ...

The engine made a roar, the black smoke emerged, and the propeller rotated quickly.

On the flat grass, the red signal light went out, and the green signal light was on.

"Sliding out of the runway!" The captain pinched the signal light, and the green signal light on the wing lit up.

The aircraft starts to accelerate, and the take -off speed of the two -wing aircraft can be very low (lower than the cars on the highway.)

The two -meter -long wing provided a huge lift, and the four -ton body slowly flew up.

One two ... Twelve bombers took off, and after circling the airport, flying north.
