The Cycle of Reincarnation in the Four-Courtyard House: A Journey Through the Heavens
Chapter 21 An Amazing Discovery
Looking at the tight defenses, Li Xiao thought to himself, "It seems that this warehouse must contain a large amount of military supplies."
Li Xiao carefully pondered some memories from his past life.
Thanks to his drastically increased mental strength, Li Xiao's brain activity and memory are now terrifying, and he quickly thought of something.
According to his recollection, between September and December of this year, the Japanese army dispatched more than 20,000 troops to carry out a "major sweep" in the northern part of the Jin-Cha-Ji Border Region.
Meanwhile, the troops of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region of our army carried out various tactics, including guerrilla warfare and sabotage, to disrupt the Japanese army's local transportation lines and strongholds, ultimately forcing the Japanese to retreat and consolidating their own base areas.
Now it's already the end of November, and Shanxi Province is probably at the most critical juncture of "counter-encirclement and counter-sweeping".
The Japanese currently have four arms depots in Beijing, and tonight these dozen or so trucks carrying a large amount of supplies arrived at the warehouse near the train station. It is very likely that they intend to transport the logistical supplies here to Shanxi Province via the railway.
As Li Xiao pondered this, a cold glint flashed in his eyes.
"Since the Japanese have delivered so much weaponry and logistical supplies right under my nose, I have no choice but to accept it!"
His figure vanished instantly, and he re-entered the spatial supermarket.
After about an hour, the trucks that had driven into the warehouse yard started driving out one by one.
Li Xiao could tell from the tire marks that these trucks were now empty.
After all the trucks drove away, Li Xiao used his incredible ability to walk through the void to enter the large warehouse located on the east side of the train station without anyone noticing.
Li Xiao looked around the military transit warehouse in front of him in the supermarket space. There were two warehouses with an area of about 3,000 square meters and a height of about eight meters.
At this moment, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers were guarding the gates of the two warehouses with live ammunition.
After some observation, a patrol of ten men was found constantly patrolling around the two warehouses.
Judging from the tightness of the defense, the Japanese soldiers guarded this warehouse very well.
However, these were no problem at all for Li Xiao, who could walk in the void.
He walked straight through the side wall of the leftmost warehouse, and when he saw what was inside, he couldn't help but gasp.
All Li Xiao noticed were white skull and crossbones markings on the wooden crates. From the markings, he immediately understood what was inside.
He walked to the nearest wooden crate and carefully opened the lid.
Inside, there were four special shells that were clearly different from ordinary shells.
"Poison gas!"
"No wonder these Japanese devils came to transport these things in the middle of the night, and they were so heavily guarded."
Li Xiao was greatly shocked, as it confirmed his suspicions.
If these poison gas bombs were deployed on the battlefield, the consequences would be unimaginable!
The four shells in the box were separated by straw and cotton cloth, and were packed very tightly and carefully.
"Those damned Japanese devils!"
After gritting his teeth and cursing the ancestors of these beasts for eighteen generations, Li Xiao finally began to put them away.
There were 150 of these skull-and-skull boxes. The remaining 535 wooden boxes contained Japanese standard rifles, light and heavy machine guns, mortars, and grenade launchers.
He also found a huge amount of bullets and shells in the warehouse.
After ransacking the 3,000-square-meter warehouse, Li Xiao went straight to the warehouse on the right.
This place is filled with logistical supplies.
Cotton-padded clothes, cotton-padded shoes, canned food, military water bottles, compressed biscuits, and all kinds of first-aid medicines are readily available.
With a wave of his hand, Li Xiao caused all sorts of supplies in the warehouse to disappear in large quantities, and were all neatly stacked in the huge parking lot outside the Space Supermarket.
At this moment, the warehouse is completely empty except for the load-bearing beams.
Li Xiao's figure also disappeared into the warehouse.
The Japanese soldiers quickly discovered the theft at the train station warehouse the following morning.
The matter was quickly reported to the Supreme Commander, Okamura Yasuji.
Upon learning that all the supplies in the two large warehouses at the train station had been stolen and that no clues had been found to date, Okamura Neiji became so angry that he grabbed his military knife and hacked the vases, lamps, tables, and other items in the office beyond recognition.
"Baka! Send out all the military police in the city and the third, fourth, and fifth regiments to search every house in the entire city. You must find these supplies for me!"
"Hai!"
A Japanese colonel was also pale and covered in sweat.
He was the officer in charge of storing and allocating logistical supplies for Beijing – Seizo Itagaki.
Seizo Itagaki knew all too well what was stored in the train station warehouse.
That's a full 150 boxes of poison gas bombs! If the Chinese manage to get hold of them, any Locust Army unit anywhere could face a devastating attack.
The entire city of Beijing was quickly placed under martial law. The Japanese army mobilized a large number of soldiers and also sent out all the puppet troops in Beijing to conduct a house-to-house search.
Li Xiao had already learned of this news through his subordinates, and he immediately took out his makeup tools and began to apply makeup to his mother and aunt.
These two women are quite beautiful. If something happens when the Japanese or puppet troops come to search this place, he can protect his whole family and leave. However, he won't be able to stay in Beijing after that.
In less than ten minutes, Li Xiao transformed their originally fair faces into a sallow yellow. Then, using eyeliner and other tools, he drew their large eyes into single-eyelid triangular eyes, making them look somewhat fierce.
As for the two little girls, Li Qian and Liu Qianqian, Li Xiao simply made their fair faces a bit darker and messed up their originally neat hair a little, and that was enough for him.
After everything was ready, the gate of No. 95 courtyard was kicked open roughly, and four puppet soldiers and two Japanese soldiers rushed in with guns in hand.
"All of you, show us your good citizen certificates, we need to check them!"
A puppet army leader immediately shouted, "Call out all the residents here, show your good citizen certificates, and line up. The puppet army will check them one by one!"
At this moment, most of the men in courtyard number 95 have gone out to work or do other jobs, leaving only some elderly, weak, women and children in the courtyard.
The women and children were terrified by the sudden scene. Even Jia Zhangshi, who was usually sharp-tongued, was so frightened that she ran back to her room in a flash.
