Dongling stolen treasure

It was the warlord Sun Dianying who brought the Kowloon Sword back to the world. 1On July 2, 928, Sun Dianying surrounded the Qing Dongling Mausoleum in Zunhua County, Hebei Province, and even dug two mausoleums, Cixi and Qianlong, looted the gold, silver and jewels buried with him and returned to the station with 20 cars.

Sun Dianying thought that he was the "final blow" to the Qing Dynasty after Sun Yat-sen's Revolution of 1911 and Feng Yuxiang's expulsion of Puyi, so he kept silent about the stolen treasures. He told others that Qianlong's mausoleum was magnificent, and there were many treasures buried in the coffin, the most precious of which was a string of beads around Qianlong's neck and a Kowloon sword beside him. This sword is ***5 feet long and has a special handle. It is engraved with nine golden dragons, symbolizing "99 ratio 1". The scabbard is made of precious shark skin, inlaid with rubies, sapphires and Jin Gangzuan, which is priceless.

Flowing into Dai Li

A month later, Nanjing Central Daily reported on the front page that "bandit troops dug and robbed Dongling", which shocked the whole country. People from all walks of life strongly demand that Sun Dianying be brought to justice. At this time, Sun Dianying didn't panic. He used the stolen goods from grave robbery to dot the powerful people around him, gave Dai Li the two biggest ones in Qianlong Zhu Chao, gave Song Meiling the orb in Cixi's mouth, and gave Song Ziwen the "Golden Watermelon". After some repairs, everything dealt with according to law came to nothing.

1939, Sun Dianying gave Dai Li the most precious Kowloon sword and asked him to give it to Chiang Kai-shek. At that time, during his stay in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, Dai Li temporarily entrusted this sword to his military spy Ma Hansan. Who knows, Ma Hansan is a greedy treasure, and keeps the sword on him. /kloc-at the beginning of 0/940, he was captured by the Japanese army and sacrificed his sword to save his life. This sword fell into the hands of Japanese female spy Chuan Dao Yoshiko. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Yoshiko Chuan Dao was captured by the army, and Dai Li went to Beiping No.1 Prison to interrogate Yoshiko Chuan Dao.

In prison, Chuan Dao Yoshiko told a secret that shocked Dai Li: It turned out that Ma Hansan, the stationmaster of Scout Beiping Station, was arrested and defected during his stay in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. Not long ago, Ma Hansan also searched the home of Chuan Dao Yoshiko, looking for a Kowloon sword he got during the mutiny. Dai Li immediately made a secret investigation of Ma Hansan after receiving unexpected news from Kawashima Yoshiko. When Ma Hansan found out, he took the initiative to hand over the sword. He also sent many treasures, antiques, calligraphy and painting to Dai Li, and the Kowloon Sword fell into the hands of Dai Li.

Put the sword away and bury it.

But this sword soon disappeared from the world, this time in Dai Li's tomb. Shen Zui, a former military commander, wrote in "Dai Li as I Know It", 1946, 17. In March, Dai Li set off from Qingdao with the Kowloon sword and flew directly to Nanjing to meet Jiang. Who knows the bad weather, the plane crashed into Daishan, Jiangning, killing people and burning for several hours. The scout sent him to collect it himself. When Shen Zui recovered the Jiulong Sword from Jiangning farmers, the scabbard and hilt were completely burned.

So Shen Zui put it in a coffin with Dai Li's body and transported it back to Zhigong Hall of Linggu Temple for temporary storage. A few months later, Chiang Kai-shek personally chose a slope on the west side of Wuliangdian. There was a small pond in front of the slope to bury Dai Li. Shen Zui personally supervised the construction of the mausoleum, because Dai Li killed many * * * producers and progressives, fearing retaliation, so after putting away the coffin, he specially poured cement slag into the tomb for reinforcement.

Has become residual iron.

Shen Zui's fears soon came true. 195 1 In the spring of, Dai Li's tomb was razed to the ground at the strong demand of all walks of life in Nanjing. So after the grave robbery, where did the Kowloon sword remnants go? Weicai Liu, an old man, has been engaged in cultural protection in Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum all his life. At that time, he worked in Linggu Temple police station, and the demolition of Dai Li's tomb was completed under his supervision.

He told reporters that in 195 1 year, several farmers in Dongshantou village in Lingqu spent half a month digging Dai Li's tomb along the cement joint with pickaxes. "In front of us is a lipstick lacquer wood coffin," said Mr. Liu. After the coffin was opened, they found that apart from Dai Li's body, there was only a revolver deformed by fire, the heel of a leather shoe and the Kowloon sword. "It was a long and narrow piece of iron more than a foot long, which was badly corroded. I only vaguely see the shape of the blade. "

Mr. Liu recalled that all these things were dumped into the pond in front of the tomb and buried, while Dai Li's coffin was transported back to the hoop bucket by farmers. Things have changed. When the secret of Kowloon Sword was revealed, everything was gone. Perhaps it is also a good destination for this national treasure to turn it into spring mud in Purple Mountain.
