Chapter 402: Raiders of the Lost Ark (Asking for subscriptions, monthly passes, and various !! )

On the second day after the Eighth War Zone captured Baoding, Li Zong asked Chen Feng for instructions, took Shizuko Akiyama's body back to his hometown, and then buried her next to the ancestral grave of the old Li family, and then led people back to Tianjin to continue to be the president of his Hojo Trading Company.

The news was obtained from a very well-known dealer in cultural relics, saying that not long ago, Nobuhiro Matsumoto, a well-known collector in Japan and also a well-known dealer in cultural relics in Japan, suddenly appeared in Tianjin. Then a batch of Chinese cultural relics was purchased from the Japanese army, and at the same time, more than a hundred cultural relics were purchased from Chinese antiquities dealers, and these cultural relics are now hidden in the Japanese garrison headquarters in Tianjin, at least five or six hundred.

Among them, there are some unique heirlooms, and there are even a batch of precious bronzes, among which there is a tiger cannibal that is suspected to be specially explained by Chen Feng. After getting the news, Li Zong didn't dare to slack off, and immediately passed the news back and asked Chen Feng for instructions on whether to rob it.

Chen Feng didn't expect the ten national treasures required by the system to have news so quickly, and he was in a good mood. He knew very little about cultural relics, and he only heard the names of the ten national treasures listed in the system, but did not know their true faces. And there are a few that he has never even heard of by name, and afterwards Chen Feng has asked a few masters with rich collection experience to consult, and only later did he learn that the ten national treasures have been lost for a long time, and some even date back to more than a thousand years ago, and they are not lost in recent years.

Then Chen Feng went back to carefully check the task released by the system, and only noticed that the system asked him to recover the top ten national treasures that flowed into Japan, not the national treasures that had been plundered by the Japanese army in recent years. Dizzy! Although the goal is the same, the results are very different.

The former is a huge amount of work, and the exchanges between China and Japan can be traced back to the Han Dynasty, and from that time on, the cultural relics that China flowed into Japan were like the sand of the Ganges River crossing the river. The most important thing is that the time spans thousands of years, and many historical clues have disappeared in the long river of history, so it is easy to track it back, no wonder those cultural relics are rewarded so high.

In fact, Chen Feng had long lost any hope for those ten peerless unique products, but he didn't expect the surprise to come so suddenly. Since it was delivered to the door, how could Chen Feng let this batch of cultural relics slip away from his hands. Soon an encrypted telegram was sent from Guisui to Tianjin. Chen Feng ordered Li Zong. Intercept these national treasures at all costs, and he will send someone to meet them.

Chen Feng's order was expected by Li Zong, and during this time, under the cover of the Hojo Trading House, he had intercepted more than 300 pieces of various cultural relics from the Japanese, including calligraphy and paintings, jade, and porcelain. There are also stone carved Buddha scriptures. All-encompassing. At the same time, some secrets were collected. I also understood why the commander wanted to collect these artifacts.

Before, Li Zong, like everyone else, thought that Chen Feng was collecting cultural relics, calligraphy and paintings to raise military expenses or as a hobby, but when they learned that the Japanese had shipped these Chinese national treasures to the Japanese mainland. Li Zong and others finally realized the seriousness of the matter, and it would not take a few years for China's thousands of years of cultural accumulation to become the spoils of war for the Japanese, and then the children and grandchildren of the future generations would have to go to Japan if they wanted to see these things, and this kind of thing was terrible, and this was not only a loss for the present generation, but also a shame for the children and grandchildren of the younger generations.

But it's clear and clear, but now the world is in chaos, and human life is still like a mustard, not to mention these old objects, there is no one to protect them at all. Last year, the Japanese used large cargo ships to transport 11 ships of cultural relics and gold, and although they intercepted them many times, they only intercepted six ships, and the remaining five ships were all transported back to Japan.

What distressed Li Zong the most was that except for the two of the cultural relics loaded on the six freighters that they intercepted, they were safely transported back to Tianjin, and the remaining four were all sunk to the bottom of the sea, and there was no harvest after many salvages.

According to the exact information obtained by Li Zong and others, the cultural relics to be transported this time not only included five or six hundred fine works of Matsumoto Nobuhiro, but also a large number of cultural relics plundered by the Japanese army from all over North China, and the quantity was extremely large. In order to ensure the safety of these cultural relics, the Japanese side decided to send a light cruiser to escort them.

The problem is very tricky, if it is just an ordinary ship, Li Zong and others can intercept it, but if it is a large warship, it is not easy to do, because there are usually a large number of soldiers stationed on the warship, hundreds of people at a time, and even hundreds or thousands of people at a time, and if you want to intercept such a large warship, you must have a strong fleet.

However, the naval fleet of the Eighth Theater of Operations is still nested in the South Sea Territory, and it is simply useless. Now the cultural relics are in the Japanese garrison headquarters, where the Japanese army is stationed with heavy troops, whether it is a strong attack or a clever acquisition, it is simply unrealistic. Interception at the port will not work, and now the Japanese have taken precautions, so there will definitely be precautions.

The most important thing is that the number of cultural relics this time is too large, and there are five or six hundred pieces in the hands of any Japanese cultural relics dealer alone, not to mention the Japanese army, even if these cultural relics can be intercepted, there is not enough time to transport them away, so the best way is to do it at sea, so that once the cultural relics are intercepted, there will be enough time to transport them away.

But apparently the Japanese also thought about this problem, so they did not hesitate to use large warships to transport, and the only way now is to mix in with the Japanese warships and wait for the opportunity to move.

For Li Zong today, it is not difficult to get on a Japanese warship, but the difficult thing is how to eliminate the Japanese naval soldiers on board, and how to ensure that the cultural relics on the warship are transported back to Saibei Province intact.

First of all, Chen Feng asked Li Zong to apply to Lieutenant General Qin Yashang, the commander of the Tianjin garrison, saying that their Hojo Trading House also had a batch of very important goods to be shipped to Japan, hoping that Vice Admiral Qin Yashang could help and take the Flying Dragon light cruiser. Presumably, with the degree to which Li Zong is now valued by the Japanese military department, Qin Yashang will not refuse his request.

Due to the limited size of the warship, there will not be too many people on board this time, at most thirty people, and I am afraid that more will be suspected. The seizure of the warship after boarding the ship is the most important link, and this link must not let the Japanese find the abnormality, otherwise the matter will be big, and the line of the Hojo Comptoir is likely to be exposed, so Chen Feng's plan for Li Zong and others is to poison, and it is to poison in fresh water. As we all know, fresh water on warships is limited, and it is impossible to sail on the ocean without using fresh water.

After seizing the warship, the task of Li Zong and the others will be completed, and they will not need to take care of the rest of the things, and he will send people to transport all the cultural relics back to Saibei Province at that time. Moreover, Chen Feng specifically instructed that Li Zong personally supervise this matter, but Li Zong himself could not get on the ship under any circumstances, and all the special combat personnel who went on board to carry out the mission would be transferred back to the war zone in the future, and they would not be able to go on the roads around Tianjin in the future, and claim to the public that they had died at sea with all the Japanese crew.

Although Li Zong did not know how Chen Feng planned to transport the cultural relics back to Saibei, he still faithfully carried out Chen Feng's order.

Tianjin Garrison Headquarters, Major General Qin Yashang was drinking with Matsumoto Nobuhiro, there were only two people in the Japanese-style room, Qin Yashang and Matsumoto Nobuhiro, two small bottles of sake on a low square table, and a few exquisite side dishes.

"Matsumoto-kun, I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Prince to send you on this mission, I am really surprised!" Major General Qin Yashang spoke.

"Your Excellency, don't be a humble position, I'm just a small businessman, how dare I be so courteous to Your Excellency!" Nobuhiro Matsumoto said with a smile.

"Matsumoto-kun said with a smile, although Your Excellency does not have a military position, and you cannot be regarded as a regular soldier, but Your Excellency represents His Royal Highness the Prince, how dare you be presumptuous in front of Your Excellency!" Qin Yashang was very humble.

He knew that although the old guy in front of him was not a high-ranking official or politician, nor was he a big figure in the Matsumoto family, this person was a person with hands and eyes and a wide range of contacts. The most important thing is that this person is doing things for the big guy in the military department, even His Majesty the Emperor doesn't dare to do anything with His Royal Highness the Prince, so even if he is a major general of the Imperial Japanese Army, he has to be a grandson in front of this old guy.

"Hehehe, Your Excellency is polite, I know that your milk name is Kojiro. I also have some friendship with your father, so Todai will call you Kojiro, you can call me Uncle Matsumoto or Old Matsumoto, we shouldn't have been so polite between us in the first place. Matsumoto Shinhiro.

"Hay! Uncle Matsumoto, I'm worried that the people will come back this time to make trouble! Qin Yashang said.

"Well, those Zhina people are very hidden, they are elusive, we were intercepted by that team of Zhina people many times last year, and the losses were quite heavy! Kojiro, this mission is extremely important, those hundreds of artifacts are just a cover, what really matters is the batch of gold, so this time no matter what! Matsumoto Shinhiro.

"Hai, it is precisely because of the importance of the matter that we have to be more vigilant, now the infiltration of the people of China into the security area is very serious, although we have destroyed many intelligence sites of the people of China, but we have not caught their main person in charge, so the people of China are still a great threat to us."

"Yo Xi, because of this, His Royal Highness the Prince will transfer the Flying Dragon to North China, with the Flying Dragon here, I believe that the people of China will not have a chance to attack again! But what should we do with that request made by the Hojo family, to agree or not to agree? ”

"Uncle Matsumoto, what do you mean, let the people who don't let the Hojo Shoji get on the ship together?" Major General Qin Yashang did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

"That Hojo I also know Lu Dao, it's a character, I heard that there is a god-level master behind him, I don't know if Lu Dao is true or false?" Nobuhiro Matsumoto.

"It's true, we all saw that senior with our own eyes, it's definitely not the same!" Thinking of the scene that day, Major General Qin Yashang unconsciously shuddered, how can a person be strong to that extent, that is not a person, that is simply a god, a living god!

Matsumoto Nobuhiro thought for a while and said, "Since that's the case, then agree to let them board the ship together, god-level masters are not something that our people can provoke." Even the royal family didn't dare to provoke someone of that level, and it was our honor to be able to befriend the retainers of the god-level masters! ”

"Hay! Uncle Matsumoto, I know what to do! ”
