Volume 1 Chapter 16 Eradicating Evil (Part 1)
"Hurry! Give me more speed! Faster!" On the highway from Yingzhou to Zhuerhe, Chu Jingming, the head of the security team of the Yingzhou Special Administration, rode a tall horse, holding a whip and leading his team towards Zhuerhe at full gallop.
Hundreds of fully armed security personnel rushed forward along the highway, stirring up countless dust and smoke, looking like a long dragon from afar.
A horseman came galloping from afar and dismounted in front of Chu Jingming, saying: "Commander Chu, I am Xiao Liu Zi from the Bao An team of Hei He Zhen. The siege at Quan Shan has been lifted. In this battle, our Bao An team heavily defeated Wei De Xi's bandits, killing or wounding over a hundred enemies, capturing dozens and seizing a batch of weapons and equipment. Our captain sent me to inform you."
"What? The siege has been lifted? Didn't they say we were surrounded by bandits?" Chu Jingming asked in confusion, adjusting the steel helmet on his head.
"It was the third young master of the Qiao family who led people to break through the siege, and we cooperated with the reinforcement troops to launch a pincer attack, heavily defeating Wei Dexi's forces." Xiao Liu Zi replied calmly, obviously not mentioning the sudden acquisition of a large number of machine guns. This was something that Qiao Anguo had already confessed to. Not just him, but the entire security team and all the servants of the Qiao family were tacitly understanding, as the Qiao family had both rewarded them with money and reassured them, so keeping secrets was not a problem.
"Oh!" Chu Jingming didn't quite understand how Qiao San had managed to get out of the encirclement, but since it was already resolved, he felt at ease and immediately said: "Alright then, I'll feel relieved. Lead the way ahead, let's go to Zhurijie."
"Yes!" Xia Liu Zi bowed and immediately mounted his horse, solemnly saying: "Commander Chu, please!"
"Let's go!" Chu Jingming waved his whip and shouted loudly.
A large group of people surged forward again, rushing towards the River Ji, but this time the marching speed was much slower. After all, the siege of Quanshan had been lifted, and there was no need to hurry anymore.
…………
Jihe Village, Longshan
Qiao Anbang arrived at the hiding place of the flying machine, Longshan, with Wang Gensheng and several trusted servants in a few horse-drawn carriages. When they reached the outside of the forest, Qiao Anbang ordered Wang Gensheng and others to wait outside, and then entered the forest alone.
Yali had been waiting for him in the woods for a long time. This time, when Qiao Anbang came to the woods, he not only wanted to take out a batch of weapons and silver coins from the aircraft, but also wanted to discuss some specific matters with Yali, such as his current need for a batch of vehicles, cars, motorcycles, etc., which would eliminate the need to use horse-drawn carriages.
"Master, you're here." Seeing Joab come over, Yalri went up with a smile all over her face.
"Uh, Yali, are you all set?" Qiao Anbang nodded and asked.
"Yes, master, everything you want is ready." Yali nodded in response.
"Oh, Yalier, I have some things that I don't understand. Last time you said that this aircraft can automatically produce anything that exists on this planet, is that right?" Qiao Anbang asked as he walked.
"Yes, master, except for humans and animals, that is to say living things, everything can be produced." Yali nodded again in response.
"But, the aircraft is just a bit bigger than that. For example, if I need cars, trains, or even large-caliber artillery, how can they be produced? Moreover, although the aircraft is versatile, in the future we will need various supplies, and it would be very inconvenient to extract them all from the aircraft." Qiao Anbang's concerns were indeed far-sighted. To say nothing of later on, if a full-scale anti-Japanese war breaks out, his own troops will definitely have to go to the front lines.
It's okay for now, the scale is small and so are the demands, but in the future, the amount of various weapons and ammunition needed will increase exponentially. We can't just keep extracting one piece at a time from flying machines, that's not only slow but also cannot meet the needs of large-scale combat troops.
So, he must solve the difficulties that may be encountered in the future, and want to develop military armaments, enrich the country and strengthen the people, and achieve hegemony. It is impossible to rely solely on this alien flying machine, but also to establish a perfect industrial system foundation for China.
As they spoke, the two had already arrived in front of the aircraft.
"Master, if you need items of a larger volume, the flyer has two methods. Firstly, the flyer can change its production outlet." As she spoke, Yalai walked towards the flyer and pressed a button on her wrist computer. The flyer beeped in response, and a metal alloy plate about one meter in diameter automatically opened on the wall near the cabin door. A blue light beam appeared, forming a massive light screen about two meters away from the wall, large enough to rival the entire volume of the flyer itself.
Qiao Anbang was slightly shocked and thought to himself: "This is just like a myth, how can the technology of these aliens be so advanced?"
At this time, Yali smiled and turned her head to ask: "Master, do you need something like a car now?"
Qiao Anbang nodded slightly curiously and said, "Well, let's get two military trucks first." He also wanted to see how this alien high-tech could produce trucks.
"Alright." Yali nodded in response, and immediately manipulated the miniature computer on her arm again. Soon, the flight device reacted, and the blue light wall began to fluctuate. After about half a minute, the front of a military truck emerged from the light wall.
Right after that, the vehicle body was assembled. After the brand new truck landed steadily on the ground, Qiao Anbang was overjoyed. In less than a minute, he had a brand new military truck. This speed might be even faster than the combined efforts of Britain, America, Germany and France!
Qiao Anbang walked over with a delighted face, looking up and down at this brand new military truck. It was a ten-wheeled Dodge large truck with a load capacity of five tons, which was originally developed by the American Chrysler company in 1942. However, the brand name of this truck should have been changed now.
"Is this truck okay?" Yali thought Joab was dissatisfied with the truck as he stood silently in front of it.
"Alright, alright, this truck is pretty good. I'll give it a name - let's call it Shangwu brand car." Qiao Anbang nodded repeatedly and said.
"Ah, Shang Wu, what a nice name! You're so clever, Master!" Yali exclaimed with a smile.
Looking at Yali's sweet smile, plus the undulating waves in front of her chest, Qiao Mouren's heart was once again filled with excitement and he asked after a moment of indulgence: "Right, Yali, you said this is the first method, is there a second one?"
"There's another way, which is to transform the aircraft into a fixed production base, so that it can mass-produce all sorts of items needed by the master. However, once the aircraft is transformed into a fixed base, it cannot be transformed back." Yali's emotions were somewhat downcast, apparently she didn't want to transform the aircraft into a fixed production base either.
"Oh, I see. In that case, let's stick with the first method. After some time has passed, we'll produce more factory equipment and a complete set of production lines for weapons and equipment, establish our own factories, and manufacture the various weapons, equipment, and strategic and civilian materials we need. This is the only way to permanently solve our future needs." said Qiao Anbang.
"Ah, Master, you're really too clever." Yali praised happily, seeing that Qiao Anbang didn't intend to transform the aircraft into a base.
"Alright, little one, no need to praise me anymore, hurry up and produce that batch of supplies." Qiao Anbang stroked Yali's lovely button nose.
"Yes, master!" Yalí responded cheerfully and immediately turned back to continue operating the flight device.
It didn't take long for all the materials to be produced through the light wall. With this light wall, it was no longer necessary to go into the flying machine and move things out one by one.
This time, Qiao Anbang needs materials, including ten Mauser heavy machine guns, two hundred Mauser 98K rifles, fifty thousand rounds of machine gun ammunition, ten thousand rounds of rifle ammunition, one thousand hand grenades, and two million silver dollars.
The reason there are no cannons is that the security team doesn't have anyone who can use them now, even if they were given one cannon per person, what's the point? Not even as good as a root for burning firewood.
Looking at the vast ocean of money and rows of neatly arranged equipment, Qiao Anbang excitedly rubbed his hands together. With money and equipment, he wouldn't have to worry about gathering troops. Ordinary soldiers were easy to recruit, but technical troops like artillery and communications were not that easy to find, so this money was meant to be used to search for and recruit these technical troops.
Just then, a somewhat anxious shout came from outside the forest: "Young master, the old master has sent someone to say that Chu Jingming, the commander of the Chu team in Yongzhou, has arrived with his men. The old master wants us to hurry back."
"Alright, come in and move your stuff!" Qiao Anbang shouted loudly.
"All right, put the aircraft away."
"Mm." Yali responded with a murmur and immediately hid the aircraft again.
This was when Wang Gen Sheng led a few servants in a small run, and when they saw the ocean, equipment, and trucks that appeared out of thin air, they were all stunned and stood still like silly chickens.
"Cough, cough..." Qiao Anbang paused for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Brothers, there are 200,000 yuan here, a reward of 1,000 yuan each for you. But there is one condition, this matter must be kept absolutely confidential, otherwise, don't blame me, Qiao, for being ruthless. Do you understand?"
"I understand." The crowd was overjoyed and hastily replied.
"Alright, let's get all these loaded onto the car first. I'll give you a big ocean of money when we get home, don't worry about it. Just follow me and I guarantee you won't lose out in the future." Qiao Anbang said with a wave of his hand.
"Yes!" This time, the crowd's response was even more unified and louder. By now, they had already regarded Qiao Anbang as a god in their hearts. Never mind where this money and equipment came from, but these were all genuine goods!
It didn't take long for Wang Gen Sheng and several servants to quickly load 200,000 yuan and most of the goods onto the truck. The remaining items were all loaded onto those few horse-drawn carriages. After settling everything, Qiao Anbang drove the truck with Ya Li sitting beside him, heading towards Zuihe Village.
Wang Gensheng and the others followed in horse-drawn carriages. Qiao Anbang had wanted to get a few more trucks, but it seemed that no one else in the Qiao family knew how to drive, so they could only wait until they recruited some soldiers who could drive.
It's 11 o'clock now. The second update might be after 12 o'clock, but I'll try my best to go and code immediately. Thanks for the evaluation votes from Da Bai Tu and Chun Cun.
