The huge Jiaziku Fortress can hold not only three thousand soldiers, but also four thousand people! There are lounges, medical rooms, kitchens, ammunition depots everywhere in the maze-like tunnel... There are even two wells hidden in separate rooms, and you can take a sip of the clear mountain spring.
The long journey on the sea made these Russian soldiers miserable, and the lack of supplies gave any officer a headache. This time the Jiaziku was undoubtedly a treasure house for them.
After breaking open a storage room, there was a burst of exclamations: "Food! A lot of food! There are also fresh water ghosts, what is this, why are it so prickly..."
The people in the bitter cold land had never seen juicy and delicious pineapples. The soldiers didn't even know how to peel them and just ate them. The big green mango was not yet fully ripe, and the soldier was so numb that he vomited.
There were also lychees and mangosteens, which were delicacies that the soldiers had never seen before.
Amami Oshima itself has a tropical climate, and these fruits are specialties of the island. They are not rare at all, but to the Tsarist Russian soldiers from the far north, these strange ingredients were simply incredible.
For these carnivorous war bears, the most attractive thing is the various canned meats and fine wines that are standard in the new army. The Tsarist Russian soldiers looked as if they were dead when they saw these things. No matter how much the officers scolded them, they had to secretly pour wine into their mouths. Drink, even if you get whipped, you have to drink secretly.
"Report to Commander! The door to the treasury has been found! The door to the treasury has been found..."
After hearing the sound, Aikeson and the others hurriedly walked deep into the fortress under the leadership of the guard soldiers, passing through trenches and tunnels. At the end of a cement tunnel, people saw the thick iron door.
"Blast him! It should be right here..." The engineers began to place detonators on the iron door, and then there was a huge bang. The iron door collapsed inward, and all the hinges were blown to pieces.
After the smoke and dust dissipated, the engineers swarmed forward and began to move out the broken cement blocks and iron doors. After the iron plate and wooden door with a thickness of more than 30 centimeters was lifted out, people were surprised to find that there was an iron door blocking it ten meters away. followed everyone's footsteps.
"Enter the engineer! Then blast me..."
Boom boom boom...low explosions came one after another. Molière, who was waiting outside the tunnel, suddenly had a strange feeling. He found that the dark tunnel was like a monster's mouth, constantly spitting out flames and smoke.
Three iron doors were blown to pieces, and at this moment the expectant voice rang out, "My God! My God! Jinshan! We have found the treasure house..."
The red-haired Axon rushed into the tunnel like an arrow, dodging the cement blocks on the ground with one foot and one foot, and soon entered the core treasure house.
Even though Aikeson was from a high-class noble family, he had been well-informed since he was young and thought he would not be tempted by any wealth. However, today's scene made his strong heart unable to bear it. The golden light in this room It directly evokes the most primitive desires of human beings.
gold! There's gold everywhere! The heavy angle iron shelves are filled with densely packed gold ingots, all of which are of the same specifications.
The entire room is more than 150 square meters, and the six huge angle iron shelves in the middle are more than two meters high, and the items on them are all gold.
Aikeson held up a gold ingot with trembling hands, with the inscription and pattern of the Ryukyu Mint printed on it, and the Arabic numerals and Chinese characters for ten kilograms below.
"Oh my God? So many?" Molière exclaimed in fright as soon as he walked into the vault, "More than ten tons, definitely more than ten tons..."
The officers who filed in were all stunned at the scene in front of them, their greedy hands touched the gold, and everyone wanted to take all the gold for themselves.
Aikeson put the gold back on the shelf and said in a low voice, "The guard company will guard the vault door and start counting immediately..."
The guards with loaded guns rushed in and drove the soldiers from other units out of the vault. Then several logistics officers began to count the quantities one by one on the iron racks.
Exxon and Molière retreated to the corner, not daring to hinder their work. Molière handed the major a cigarette with trembling hands, "How much gold do you think there is here? Ten tons? Eleven tons?"
Aikeson took a long drag on the cigarette, and ended up choking and coughing desperately. "I don't know... I only know that this place is so heavily guarded. It must be the Chinese clan's general treasury. The gold here must be to stabilize banknotes." Stored by credit!”
"No wonder Xiao Letian dared to print banknotes in the Qing Dynasty. Since he had so many precious metals as stabilizers, he certainly had the confidence to promote banknotes. China's wealth is really beyond our imagination..."
Molière held the cigarette butt between his lips and took out a map from his pocket, unfolded it in his hands, and spit out the cigarette butt on the ground. "This is the map of Tangwan Mountain that was just added. This is the area of Jiaziku... ...And halfway up the mountainside of Tangwan Mountain, there are independent fortresses like this from the four directions of southwest, north and south..."
"What does this mean? This shows that there is definitely more than one treasure trove. Our intelligence completely underestimated the value here... How can a treasury protected by such a strong fortress only have ten tons of gold!"
The light of gold burned away everyone's sanity, and Exxon was no exception. He crushed the cigarette butt and nodded fiercely, "Yes, the other four fortresses cannot exist in isolation, otherwise the scale would not be that big, so Said other fortresses also have treasures!"
"Maybe it's gold, silver, maybe it's cultural relics and jewelry that can be easily converted into cash! Xiao Letian is a master of making money. The wealth he collected from the Chinese people finally belongs to us today!"
"Come here... report everything that happened here to the commander-in-chief. I request more troops. We must eat the entire Tangwan Mountain. All the wealth must be taken away..."
The gold cast in a unified manner is very easy to count. A dozen logistics officers quickly calculated the total number of gold ingots here. After comparing them three times, the final result was sent to Aikeson.
"Report to Commander! There are a total of 11,235 gold ingots in the vault, all of which are uniformly cast in ten-kilogram specifications... a total of 1,123 tons of gold!"
Hiss... There was a gasp of air in the vault. Everyone present was dumbfounded. There was so much gold in just one vault. How could Xiao Letian be so rich? This ancient and mysterious country once again showed its wealth to these bandits, and the gold completely detonated the invaders' desire.
"Fight! Prepare to fight! Completely occupy Tangwan Mountain! Take away all the wealth here..." The roar in the vault was like thunder.
