Chapter 183 Meng Debiao builds a tank
The monk in the front carriage heard the noise and came to the back carriage. When he climbed into the carriage and saw the gold, he couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Oh my god, Commander, is this gold?"
Gundam nodded slightly after hearing this.
"Yes, this box is full of gold. It seems that the important items transported by the Japanese this time are these gold antiques."
"Oh my god! Commander, we are rich. So much gold. Oh my god." The monk said in shock.
Gold is hard currency and a very precious commodity all over the world.
In this era, one tael of gold could be exchanged for 50 silver dollars. There were 16 taels in a pound, so one pound of gold could be exchanged for 850 silver dollars. Based on this, one ton of gold was worth up to 170 million silver dollars.
It is no exaggeration to say that the box of gold seized today is worth as much as four or five million oceans, not to mention the other antiques. These things cannot be measured by money at all, and each one is priceless.
Gaoda turned to the monk next to him and said, "Arrange a special car immediately and put these gold antiques in a separate car. There must be no problems."
"Yes, Commander."
Wei Dayong turned to the soldiers and shouted, "Drive the car up immediately and carry these boxes carefully."
The soldiers carefully moved the boxes of antiques from Jiangzhuang into the carriage. Since the boxes of gold were too heavy, they had to use equipment to lift the gold onto the carriage.
Gundam stayed in the carriage the whole time to make sure nothing went wrong.
After half an hour.
The soldiers of the special forces battalion moved all the important supplies on the train onto the truck, and the machinery and equipment placed in the carriage in front of the Gundam were also moved onto the truck.
Everyone quickly installed the bomb on the train and would not leave anything else for the Japanese.
Shortly after the convoy left the train, the bomb inside the train exploded, destroying the entire train and all the supplies in the carriages.
Gundam was sitting in the car and felt particularly happy when he heard the explosion coming from behind.
I’m rich, I’m rich, I’m rich tonight.
He didn't expect that he would get such an unexpected gain from robbing the Japanese train this time?
This batch of golden Gundams is not intended to be handed over. All of them will be used to develop the base of the independent column. The base has many places where money is needed. Although so much gold has been seized this time, it will not be easy to spend if it is really spent.
In the early morning, Gaoda led the special forces battalion back to Lijiazhuang.
When he walked into the command center, he found Qi Tongwei staring at him.
"Political Commissar, it's so late and you're still not asleep. What are you doing?"
Qi Tongwei said angrily: "Commander, you led the team out to perform the mission, but you didn't tell me. I was worried to death. Now you are the commander of the independent column. If something goes wrong, how can we explain it to the leader?"
Gaoda walked over and sat down opposite Qi Tongwei.
"Political Commissar, isn't this an emergency? I forgot to tell you. Next time I will tell you in advance."
Qi Tongwei nodded slightly after hearing what Gundam said.
Gundam smiled and said, "Political Commissar, this time we robbed the Japanese train and got a super treasure. Can you guess?"
Qi Tongwei asked curiously, "Commander, please stop keeping me in suspense and tell me quickly. How can I guess this?"
"Political Commissar, this time we robbed the Japanese of a large box of gold and more than ten boxes of antiques." Gundam whispered.
"What? Damn, is this true?"
"Commander, you are kidding me."
"Commissar, why would I joke with you about this? The gold and antiques are all piled up in the warehouse now."
Qi Tongwei was shocked and said, "Oh my God, Commander, you are so lucky."
Gaoda came up to Qi Tongwei and said.
"Political Commissar, I want to discuss something with you. I don't plan to hand over this batch of gold to the headquarters. I will use it all for the development of the independent column's base. As for the antiques, they will all be sent back to the rear area in northern Shaanxi."
After hearing what Gaoda said, Qi Tongwei thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
He also knew that this batch of gold was extremely important to the Independent Column. Everything in base construction required money, and this batch of gold could make the base develop faster.
Gaoda was overjoyed when he saw Qi Tongwei agreed.
After all, the value of this batch of gold is extremely huge. If the political commissar disagrees, Gundam cannot take the initiative to keep the gold.

Day 2.
Gundam got up early in the morning as he had no habit of sleeping in.
He also had an important thing to do today, which was to send all the machinery and equipment that the special forces battalion had dragged back yesterday to the arsenal.
The most important of these is the blueprint of the Leopard tank. Gundam plans to let Meng Debiao manufacture tanks in the arsenal. After the expansion of the Ping An Arsenal, it will be able to produce tanks.
After finishing his breakfast in the cafeteria, Gundam headed straight for the special forces camp.
It didn't take long.
Five trucks loaded with machinery and equipment set out from the special forces battalion camp and drove towards the arsenal.
When the convoy arrived at the arsenal, they saw that the factory buildings outside the arsenal had been almost completed.
Gundam walked into the arsenal and found Meng Debiao.
"Commander, why are you here at the Arsenal so early this morning? What do you want?"
Gaoda pulled Meng Debiao outside, talking as he walked.
"Director Meng, I'm here to give you a treasure today, look."
When Meng Debiao saw the machinery and equipment on the truck, he was surprised
"Commander, are all these trucks loaded with machinery and equipment? That's amazing! Now the arsenal can continue to expand its production capacity."
Gaoda looked at Meng Debiao and said, "Director Meng, in addition to these machines and equipment, I also found a good thing this time."
"Oh, what good stuff is it?" Meng Debiao asked curiously.
"Director Meng, this time we robbed the Japanese train and found a batch of blueprints. They look like they should be the design blueprints for a tank."
Meng Debiao was stunned with shock when he heard what Gaoda said.
Tank design drawings are highly confidential in any country. I didn't expect the commander to be so lucky.
Afterwards, Gaoda ordered his men to move the box containing the drawings to the office. When Meng Debiao saw the tank design drawings, he was even more shocked. These turned out to be the design drawings of the German Leopard tank. How could the Japanese get the complete set of drawings?
Could it be that the Germans gave the tank drawings to the Japanese in order to support them?
Yes, that must be the case.
After seeing the blueprint, Meng Debiao looked up and said to Gundam excitedly: "Commander, this tank design blueprint is so complete. The arsenal can definitely build a tank based on this blueprint."
Gundam nodded heavily.
"Director Meng, since we already have the tank blueprints, the next step for the arsenal is to produce a tank for me. I want the independent column to have its own tank."
Meng Debiao assured loudly: "No problem, Commander. The arsenal will immediately organize personnel to produce tanks."
