Chapter 3: Robbing Little RB
After checking, Zhang Lieyang suddenly found a jade pendant in his pile of clothes. Seeing the jade pendant, Zhang Lieyang immediately remembered what his grandfather had said to him before he died: "Lieyang, my greatest regret is that I didn't get to learn from my grandfather's knee! Your great-grandfather went to Southeast Asia with your great-uncle when they were very young and lost contact with our family until the early days of liberation, when your great-grandfather brought me back to the mainland! But no matter what, we couldn't find your great-aunt and her husband. Now that I'm dying, I'm giving you this jade pendant, which is a treasured heirloom of the Zhang family. It was given to your great-grandfather by his mother when he left Ningbo for Southeast Asia! Remember, pass it down to males but not females, and to older generations but not younger ones!"
Thinking of this, Zhang Lieyang muttered to himself: "Grandfather, then I'll take your place and pay my respects at your grandparents' knees!" As he spoke, Zhang Lieyang opened his small bag where he stored his graduation thesis, secretly rejoicing in his good fortune! Who would have thought that the graduation thesis for the Special Command Department of the Infantry Academy would be about World War II?! Otherwise, he wouldn't have had this map of Japan's military use during World War II!
After taking out the map, Zhang Lieyang skillfully used a compass to check the direction against the map.
After a while, Zhang Lieyang confirmed his direction of advance and put away the camouflage net, hiding the M134 Minigun underneath. He then started the vehicle and drove out of the bamboo forest.
As he drove on, Zhang Lieyang suddenly saw a car being repaired in the distance. Next to it was a Japanese guard with a pomaded mustache and bell-bottom pants. Zhang Lieyang drove forward and stopped behind a grove of trees, habitually picking up his military binoculars to take a look.
After observing for a while, Zhang Lieyang found that in addition to the one repairing the car and the one standing beside it, there were six other people. After making some rough calculations, Zhang Lieyang smiled and muttered to himself: "You bunch of little devils can be my first real meal since I came to this world!"
After making up his mind, Zhang Lieyang hid the two 92-style pistols with laser sights and silencers, and swaggered out of the bamboo forest towards the car while singing "Jūn Zhī Dài".
As they drew closer, Zhang Lieyang walked up and took out a cigarette, saying in fluent Japanese: "Friend, lend me a light!"
The Japanese guard thought he was one of his own and smiled, taking out a lighter from his pocket. "Judging by your accent, you're from Nagoya!" Zhang Lieyang immediately responded, "That's right! I came to Japan with my father to do business!"
Just as the guard had put away his lighter and was about to continue talking with Zhang Lieyang, Zhang Lieyang suddenly pulled out a pistol and fired at all the devils with both hands. In no time, under the unexpected circumstances, Zhang Lieyang sent all eight devils to meet their god of heaven!
Then Zhang Lieyang quickly swept the battlefield. Eight German-made Mauser rifles were found on six devils, six German-made P40 submachine guns, more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition and more than 30 lemon hand grenades, as well as more than 400 silver dollars. After checking the items on them, Zhang Lieyang opened the car door.
After the car door opened, what entered Zhang Lieyang's eyes were three large trunks and a small travel case made of rattan. Upon opening the small travel case, he saw a full half-box of silver coins, three scattered gold bars, and US dollars! Next, Zhang Lieyang, with an excited heart, once again opened the other three large trunks, and was immediately stunned - wow! Each trunk was filled to the brim with large gold bars! After finishing, Zhang Lieyang quickly ran to the front, started his car, loaded the three trunks onto his vehicle, and then hastily drove away without resting. However, before leaving, Zhang Lieyang placed a C4 in the car, set to detonate in five minutes.
When Zhang Lieyang drove the car over Kunshan, he drove it into a forest by the side of the road and carefully counted this time's total gains. After counting for a while, he finally got the result: each large box contained 1,000 gold bars, totaling 3,000 gold bars. Inside the small travel bag were three scattered gold bars, 3 million silver coins, and $115,000!
After finishing the inventory, Zhang Lieyang drove to Ningbo again. When passing through Yuyao, Zhang Lieyang spent $10,000 at Chou Tianbao Silver Building in Yuyao to buy a large amount of gold and silver jewelry, and bought several suits and clothes at Hongxiang Yuyao branch store before continuing to drive to Ningbo. (Note: Before 1934, the gold content of US dollars was as high as $1 = 1.50466 grams of gold!)
