Chapter 168 The Golden Tribulation of the Starfish

After Liu Xiu returned to his Huangya Airport, he arranged for many pilots to practice their night take-off and landing skills!

Of course, Liu Xiu also reported to the higher-ups to build more airports or repair the airports left by the little devils for their use.

There is no way, after all, the maximum range of this Cricket aircraft is only one thousand kilometers. If there is no airport as a transit, its combat radius is only 500 kilometers. This time Chu Yunfei's battle at Zhaozhuang was just within its combat range. Within, if it were further away, there would be nothing we could do.

The airports where the little devils stayed were basically in the suburbs, so they were naturally occupied here. Therefore, Liu Xiu's request was quickly agreed, and the teams near each airport also sent troops to protect the airports. and repairs.

Of course, what is particularly important is that a lot of fuel is stored at various airports for refueling when planes are in transit.

Although there is only one oil well here, don't forget that there are no fuel-consuming equipment here. The main fuel-consuming equipment is Liu Xiu. The nearly two thousand airplanes here are just a big fuel-consuming equipment!

However, these two thousand aircraft are all small aircraft with small displacement, so their fuel consumption is not much higher!

Of course, with the defeat of the Battle of Zhaozhuang, the Battle of Huaihai ended even faster. They never expected that the Ace Lion, a rice weapon that they spent a lot of money to build, would be eaten by people and equipment in one night. Lost!
However, when the war was in full swing, Liu Xiu wrote a letter of advice to the superiors.

The content of the letter is also very simple, that is, it briefly explains that the overall situation on the land has been decided, so it is likely to find a way out there, and this way out is likely to be the largest island.

Maybe this amount of money doesn't seem like a lot. After all, before Liu Xiu traveled through time, larger companies were worth hundreds of millions of dollars, but you have to remember that this was the 1940s and 1950s!

This is equivalent to one hundred and fifty tons! According to the calculation that one ounce of gold cost about fifty meters at that time, the value of this batch of gold reached 260 million meters.

If you want to establish a foothold on that island, money is definitely indispensable, so a large amount of gold will definitely be transported there, because the common currency on Blue Star at this time is gold, so Liu Xiu’s suggestion is to let the people below Intelligence officers paid close attention to Shang Hai's movements.

So now it's almost December, so Liu Xiu is anxious now!
According to the memories before the time travel, and according to the information disclosed there, nearly three million taels of gold were transported to that island!

After all, Liu Xiu knew from his memories before traveling that the first batch of gold began to be transported from Shanghai to that island in December 1948!

Apart from anything else, one gram of gold is now close to one hundred meters of gold. One hundred and fifty tons of gold is equivalent to fifteen billion meters of gold! That’s more than 100 billion yuan! Of course, purchasing power is different so it’s not easy to compare.

But in the 1940s and 1950s, the cost of a Mustang fighter was only 50,000 U.S. dollars. With 260 million U.S. dollars, more than 50,000 Mustang fighters could be purchased. You must know that only 10,000 Mustang fighters were produced in the entire World War II. There are more than 5,000 aircraft!

What's more, it was with the support of this fund that the largest island got the Four Little Dragons in the 1970s and 1980s. Otherwise, without so much gold, how could the island develop?

Can the United States have such a good heart and give away everything for free? ···········
On December 1, 1948, at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, Liu Xiu and the three most powerful members of his special forces team were lurking in the cold river, waiting for the opportunity!

At this time, Liu Xiu and the others saw groups of porters who looked like ordinary people carrying boxes of mysterious objects onto the Starfish ship under the supervision of a group of soldiers with live ammunition.

Yes, this is the most famous Starfish incident. At this time, as told in history, the Starfish loaded two million taels of gold, that is, more than 100 tons of gold and four million silver dollars, into the Starfish. , and then shipped to that largest island upon request.

Yes, Liu Xiu's letter still attracted the attention of the superiors, so the superiors dispatched intelligence agents according to Liu Xiu's request to infiltrate the bank where the gold was stored.

So the news that the gold in the bank vault was packed up naturally came out a few days ago, and naturally there was this news.

Naturally, Liu Xiu didn't have much reason for this, so he immediately arrived here with Wei Dayong and Duan Peng on three rotorcraft. Yes, they were the three most powerful people in the entire special operations team. Of course they are Liu Xiu, Wei Dayong and Duan Peng!
Although the gyrocopter can carry three people, Shanghai is still quite far from Huangya Airport, so Liu Xiu used the weight of the remaining two people to load oil and bombs!

Three 50-kilogram time bombs are enough to sink the Starfish, a ship with a full load of less than 700 tons!
"What did they pick?"

Liu Xiu did not answer Duan Peng's question, but just said:

"Do you remember the confidentiality regulations? Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. Just wait until you follow the order and act!"

Duan Peng stopped asking after hearing Liu Xiu's words, and the reason Liu Xiu didn't tell Duan Peng was naturally that money moved people's hearts! More than two million taels of gold!
He didn't care about anyone, so Liu Xiu naturally didn't tell Duan Peng and Wei Dayong directly, so as not to worry them.

As the porters finished picking up more than a hundred tons of gold, the ship naturally started to slowly start. Liu Xiu, Duan Peng and Wei Dayong also carried the magnetic bombs in their hands according to Liu Xiu's orders. He sneaked into the bottom of the Starfish and absorbed it.

As the three magnetic bombs were installed, Liu Xiu also waved his hand to signal Duan Peng and Wei Dayong to leave. After Duan Peng and Wei Dayong saw the order, they left the bottom of the Starfish without hesitation. After all, they had not reached the destination yet. The realm of transforming energy.

Therefore, there was no way to breathe freely underwater like Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu did not choose to activate the bomb now to sink the Starfish.

Because the Starfish had not yet gone to sea at this time, the water was not very deep. Even if it was sunk by the bomb, there is probably a way to salvage it!
It wasn't until he reached the sea after dozens of nautical miles from the shore. Under the exploration of Liu Xiu's enemy and friend maps, it was found that the depth of the sea water here had reached more than 500 meters. Liu Xiu then activated the time bomb. Then Liu Xiu Get off the Starfish!
Three minutes later, Liu Xiu saw fire bursting out on the dark sea surface, and the Starfish and the more than one hundred tons of gold contained on it sank.

Of course, Liu Xiu did not leave immediately, but after dealing with all those who jumped off the ship one by one, he marked the location on the map of friends and foes, and then left the scene of the shipwreck.

The crew members killed by Liu Xiu and the Starfish all sank to a depth of more than 500 meters. Liu Xiu himself had tried it and he could easily dive to this depth, but it might be difficult for others.

After all, ordinary people can only reach a depth of three hundred meters with the help of diving equipment!
