Chapter Ninety-Five: The Drawings Are Snatched Up
Zhang Hongbin is going farther and farther on the road of literary thieves, but some people are constantly moving forward on their own path.
It was another quiet night, but the Xu family was a little not very quiet. In Mr. Xu's study, there is one more guest, and Mr. Xu is accompaniing.
"Elder Ge, I didn't expect me to meet again." If the other three of the Four Friends of Baishui saw this person, they would find that this person was Li Luo, one of their four brothers.
As the Jinyi Wei Qianhu of the Ming Dynasty (promoted), Li Luo did not need to be personally responsible for external intelligence work. However, he himself still took it, after all, he still understood that the ability of Daming's Jinyiwei, especially the Jinyiwei who worked externally, was very limited, and this mission was very dangerous and could not be mistaken.
"Li Qianhu can actually go deep into the enemy territory in person, what if he is a decrepit person who is about to die, what if he sacrifices some for the sake of the Ming Dynasty?" Xu Guangqi smiled calmly.
"In the past few days, Ge Lao, you have successfully attracted the other party's attention, and in the remaining few days, I hope to make some noise. In this way, our people will strive for the fastest speed to bring what they need back to Daming! The emperor has great expectations for this operation. Of course, he is also very relieved about the safety of Xu Ge, who is a capable person of your level, and he can do his best in the cabinet. Li Luo said the purpose of his coming this time, and finally complimented him by the way.
"In the imperial court, what can I do besides fighting with those Donglin parties? People are old, not as good as those young people, and they completely ignore the life and death of the Ming Dynasty in order to fight for power and profit...... Anyway, I believe that this is also the last time that the old man will be loyal to the Ming Dynasty, if he can exchange the Ming Dynasty for a short period of time, the old man will die without regrets. Xu Guangqi said a little self-deprecatingly.
"The old man should be strong, and he will be able to live a long life." If you are complimented, you still have to say it.
"Anyway, how do you need me to cooperate, just say it." Xu Guangqi is no longer the age to like to listen to flattery.
"You don't need to be too troublesome, you just need to be ...... like this," Li Luo whispered in Xu Guangqi's ear.
The next day, Xu Guangqi was still busy with his usual things, but the difference was that he went on a trip to the street, and finally unconsciously walked to the firearms workshop area of the industrial zone. Zhang Hongbin deliberately moved the firearms workshop from Huanglongshan here, the purpose is to manage nearby, and the most important thing is to keep up with the progress of research and development, and give a certain amount of advice.
This is naturally the most heavily defended place, and there are no less than a hundred internal guards around, even among the craftsmen, there are also internal guards.
"Who are you? Please stop your steps immediately and show proof or we have the right to kill you on the spot! When the guards noticed that Xu Guangqi had entered the cordon, they immediately raised their guns to warn.
"My father of your deputy chief engineer Xu Ji, I'm going to see him...... Can I get in? The old man looked kind.
"I'm sorry, but you can't prove that you're his father, and even if you're his father, you won't be able to enter without a pass to get in. But we can pass on the word on your behalf, if you are really the father of Deputy Chief Engineer Xu, he will come out to see you. The guard did not let his guard down, but said to him very calmly.
Feeling the attitude of these two soldiers, Xu Guangqi couldn't help but sigh: The soldiers of the Salvation Army are different from the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty...... The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are all rotten.
"Okay, bother the two soldiers, help spread the word." Xu Guangqi had no intention of continuing to step forward.
After a while, Xu Ji walked out, and when he saw that it was his father, he hurriedly walked up.
"Dad, why are you here? If you want me to go back, just ask the housekeeper to come and spread the word? Xu Ji said anxiously.
Xu Guangqi is sixty-eight years old, he is no longer young, many people at this age may die at some point, if Xu Ji is not worried, it is absolutely fake.
"I don't know where you work, I always think it's good to come and see it in person, but now it seems to be good, at least the thief hasn't wronged you." Xu Guangqi looked inside the industrial zone and said to him with a smile.
"Zhang Da's family did not treat his son badly, in fact, all the engineers are treated very well, I not only have a special research room, but also all kinds of materials can be applied for as long as they are reasonable. Father, you don't know, these days, I feel more comfortable than the previous thirty years. Xu Ji said excitedly.
Xu Guangqi sighed a little emotionally, his son didn't like to read since he was a child, so he liked to study Western things, that is, he felt that he was the boss and hoped that he would get ahead, so he forced him to study and take the imperial examination...... Looking at his happy appearance now, Xu Guangqi felt that his children and grandchildren had their own blessings, and maybe he shouldn't be so persistent.
At this time, several passers-by suddenly burst out, pulled out the knives in the house, and killed Xu Guangqi and Xu Ji.
"Traitors who betray the country and join the thieves will be put to death!" A few ** roars.
"Dad, be careful!" Xu Ji's brain was blank, but he subconsciously protected Xu Guangqi's side.
"How dare you do this?!" The guards were the first to burst out, and the spears in their hands quickly stabbed out.
However, the other party was obviously not an ordinary thief, and dodged the attack very lightly, and then turned around and killed the two guards. Immediately, without saying a word, they rushed into the factory, and it was obvious that this was their goal from the beginning.
"Father, this is ......" Xu Ji couldn't react a little.
"It seems that they weren't aiming for us in the first place...... Thanks to this ......" Xu Guangqi knew the situation earlier, but still pretended to be frightened.
The entire factory area has been in chaos, and the internal guards have been dispatched to fight with the thieves.
At the same time, Li Luo took more than a dozen brocade guards and sneaked in somewhere else. This place is a loophole that they have been paying attention to for a long time, at least the supervision here is the weakest, not to mention that the attention of the factory is now attracted by the other brothers.
"Do it, we only have a quarter of an hour, and if it is long, it will be irresponsible to the brothers in front!" Li Luo said as he walked.
"Yes!" All the brocade guards replied one after another.
Soon, they slipped into the place where the drawings were stored, and they had a map of the entire factory area, which was Xu Ji's memories when he was working, drawn by Xu Guangqi in the study. With this map, Li Luo and the others can lurk here very directly.
"Who...... Forehead...... "The guards naturally won't walk away, but the next moment there is an extra sharp arrow in the throat."
This is a hand crossbow, and at least a hand crossbow that can be fired in three bursts. Silently kills enemies at close range, this thing is most effective.
When you open the door, you will find the most advanced drawings developed in the current factory area. It's just that Li Luo didn't mean to take it all away or burn it, but just walked to the area of the firearm and took out a drawing, which is the drawing of the initial model of the 'Mu Chongzhen three-year style', and it is also the first generation of muskets that have been developed by wood. Nowadays, this model of musket has progressed to three types, compared to which one type is completely scum.
However, compared to those firearms of the Ming Dynasty, it is naturally much more powerful, especially since its range is already close to that of bows and arrows. And an archer needs at least half a year of training, and a musketeer only needs three days of shooting training to be on duty. With the output and resources of the Ming Dynasty, it may be a little difficult to deal with Zhang Hongbin, but it is enough to deal with other rogues and even the Mongolian Houjin Tartars.
Yes, this is the goal of Li Luo, as for the other more advanced, he did not take.
There is no need to completely dismiss yourself from giving yourself a way back, today's Jinyiwei and Taizu Chengzu's era are different, at least the emperor doesn't trust Jinyiwei, a 'pro-army', who else can expect Jinyiwei to be able to be selfless and loyal to the emperor?
It's just the initial model, so Jinyiwei and Zhang Hongbin are not in an endless situation, but no matter what, their task is completed.
Grab the drawings, set a fire in the surrounding room, and quickly evacuate.
There are many ways to leave, and Jinyiwei is best at this kind of thing. And the flame did attract the people in front of the factory, for whom the drawings were very precious and could not be lost.
As for the three remaining thieves in front, they took the opportunity to quickly kill them and retreated.
"Is this the purpose of Old Man Xu?" The news was reported to Zhang Hongbin, but he did not have much emotional fluctuations.
"The subordinates were incompetent, so the thieves stole the drawings." Liu Ruoqi knelt in front of Zhang Hongbin at this moment.
"I don't blame you, this time made you focus on Old Man Xu's side, but I didn't expect that there would be others who cooperated with him to do such a thing. Old Man Xu didn't embarrass him, but the way to contact the other party had to be cut off. Xu Ji signed the deed of sale, he can't be promoted in this life, at most he will be the chief engineer, and he will work for me for a lifetime to pay off his debts! Zhang Hongbin leaned against Zhu Cunyuan's body behind him and said very casually.
"Yes......" Since the boss has spoken, Liu Ruoqi is not easy to say anything.
"It's just the initial type, and this brocade guard doesn't seem to be so reliable, for the Ming Dynasty." Zhang Hongbin said with a smile.
