As soon as the soup was put into the bowl, Wang Ke immediately saw that it was tomato and egg pimple soup.
Good guy, I still cook "high-end food" for you.
During the meal, the company commander with a short haircut and the cooking squad leader Gao Min sat nearby and asked some casual questions. Which soup is delicious? How is it salty? Is it delicious or not?
After listening to the end, Wang Ke understood that in that era, tomato and egg pimple soup was a "sick meal" treatment, but today it has become a "hospitality meal".
To be honest, Gao Min's craftsmanship is pretty good and very fragrant. On average, everyone ate two bowls. Wang Ke ate the fastest. After he finished, he pushed his bowl and asked Gao Min, "Are you from Yu Province?"
Because Gao Min's speaking tone is the same as Wu Xiangyu's, continuous and roundabout.
"Yes, so does our company commander." Gao Min smiled.
Only then did Wang Ke pay attention to the "tomboy" company commander. I saw that she had pretty features and looked like she was only in her thirties.
"What's your surname, company commander?"
The female company commander was obviously stunned. Maybe no one had ever asked her like this. She immediately panicked and said repeatedly: "Your surname is Wang, your surname is Wang, no, no, no, my surname is Wang."
"Hahaha, cough..." Gu Maolin couldn't hold back his mouth and choked out the tomato and egg pimple soup with laughter.
The female company commander also seemed a little embarrassed, and her face turned red. "Platoon Leader Wang, our surname is both Wang."
Wang Ke saw the female company commander's embarrassment and immediately answered. "Yes, company commander, I have to call you sister."
When Wang Ke said this, the female company commander's face turned redder. She said: "Platoon Commander Wang, are you in your twenties?"
how? Is it possible that I should call the female company commander Auntie? Does she look so young? Wang Ke looked at her suspiciously, when Gao Min interrupted. "Wang Platoon, our company commander is a young old revolutionary. She joined the army at the age of fifteen and is only twenty-two today."
Ah, this embarrassment. You actually treat this little girl like an aunt. Wang Ke quickly reported his month, and Captain Wang was actually one month younger than himself.
"It's okay, Platoon Leader Wang, you can call me sister from now on." After saying "Quack", he laughed until his branches trembled with laughter.
Wang Ke twisted his head to the side, but felt sour in his heart. He was a month younger than himself, but he had experienced many hardships. Although his skin was rougher, he was already a company commander, and he was still an acting platoon commander.
How does this compare? Comparing people to each other makes people angry.
Perhaps sensing Wang Ke's embarrassment, reconnaissance squad leader Song Ruimin grinned widely and asked: "Company commander, we have been eating and drinking for a long time, and we haven't asked you what unit you are in?"
"Oh, we are from the interference group."
"interference"? What interference? Does our army have such a unit? Judging from the antennas set up outside, it can be called a communications group or a radar group. What is this term?
Looking at everyone's puzzled looks, the female company commander added: "The formal name should be called Electronic Countermeasures Group, which uses radio interference to the enemy and blocks and destroys the enemy's communications on the battlefield. These are all military secrets... "
"Yes, don't ask about the secrets that you shouldn't ask, and don't tell the secrets that you shouldn't tell." Wang Ke immediately stopped the reconnaissance squad leader Song Ruimin, but the name "Interference Group" stuck in his mind.
"Company Commander, we have eaten. Thank you for the company's hospitality. We still have missions and we have to leave. I will definitely be here at this time on Thursday morning." Wang Ke stood up and packed his luggage.
Uncle Geng and the soldiers in the reconnaissance squad stood up, and everyone quickly put away the dishes.
Wang Ke raised his hand and saluted the female company commander, then saluted Gao Min and the several cooks behind her, and everyone walked towards the camp gate.
There was a whisper from behind, "Look how powerful our scouts are, and they even brought a guide."
The soldiers in the reconnaissance squad all raised their chests. Although he was unarmed, the surveying and mapping equipment he carried was quite mysterious. Coupled with the distinctive leggings, the female company commander and the female soldiers in the cooking squad had a strange feeling.
They sent Wang Ke and others to the gate, then waved and watched them leave.
"Platoon leader, I really want to be a soldier here." Gu Maolin lamented. After walking far away, he looked back at the barracks and sighed.
"Old soldier Youzi, you want to find a wife to settle down here. The concubine's mausoleum is in front of you, which is more suitable for you." Sweet potato Liang Xiaolong teased him, and everyone burst into laughter. This little episode on the march delayed everyone for more than an hour.
Finally arrived at Chongling.
Compared with other imperial tombs in Xishan, although they are not old enough, they are more magnificent.
Looking from a distance, the buildings of the main hall are magnificent.
There was a truck parked in front of the mausoleum, and it seemed that an archaeological team had really arrived. Uncle Geng walked in the front and went straight to his niece's house. The soldiers from the reconnaissance squad locked up all the things they were carrying and followed Uncle Geng's niece into the mausoleum through the side door with only a rope.
A group of people climbed up the glazed screen wall from the side of Mute City and arrived in front of the bandit cave.
"Where are the people from their archaeological team?" Uncle Geng first looked around suspiciously and asked his niece.
"It's down there."
"What? Did they also go down from the robbery cave?" Uncle Geng asked. Unexpectedly, his niece nodded.
Wang Ke walked around the robbery hole and saw two nearly two-meter-long square materials stretched across it. A thick hemp rope was tied to the square material, and a brown wire was also tied with the hemp rope. Drag in the hole.
Is this archeology too casual and too simple?
"How many people are here?"
"Three in total. You go down, I told them. I have to go back, and I need to take care of the gate." After Uncle Geng's niece finished speaking, she fixed her hair and left.
"Platoon leader Xiao Wang, can you get down?" Uncle Geng asked. He was a little repelled at first. In such a deep hole, if you only rely on a hemp rope to climb down, it doesn't matter whether you can come up.
"Down."
"Okay, you guys, come on down. I'll take a rest above. If you need anything, just say something and I'll take care of you from above." After Uncle Geng finished speaking, he sat down on the grass next to him.
On the top of the underground palace, the rising sun made the surrounding area warm.
Wang Ke and the six soldiers from the reconnaissance squad held the rope and descended into the robbery cave one by one. Gu Maolin still took the lead and drilled through the U-shaped hole and another deep well.
"Plop", when Gu Maolin was still two or three meters away from the ground, he let go and jumped down.
When Wang Ke saw it, he quickly climbed down a few foot holes and jumped down. After standing firm, I discovered two lamps hanging in the dozens of meters long tomb passage. It should be a large 500-watt light bulb. One is in the middle of the tomb passage, and the other is at the far end. There are three figures shaking there.
"Plop, plop" the other five soldiers in the reconnaissance squad also jumped down one after another.
Although the light bulb was quite big, it was still like a will-o'-the-wisp in the entire tomb passage. Except for the bit of ground under the light, most of it was still unclear.
"Who?" A sharp shout came from the other end of the tomb passage. The three comrades of the archaeological team finally discovered the group of uninvited guests in the tomb passage. It's funny to say that the archaeological team, Wang Ke and the reconnaissance team all came down from the robbery cave like the tomb robbers.
"It was us, the People's Liberation Army, who made the agreement with Aunt Ying who was guarding the tomb." Wang Ke quickly responded loudly according to what Uncle Geng's niece told him.
The sound "buzzed" in the tomb passage
"Oh, then you stay away, don't come over, don't get too close, there is miasma here."
Wang Ke's eyes had adapted to the darkness in the tomb passage. Through the half-closed stone doors, he saw three men wearing masks, turning over the coffins dozens of meters in front. Two of them were wearing white coats and one was wearing a white coat. Wearing blue overalls. The man in blue overalls was obviously responsible, and he vaguely seemed to be wearing a pair of glasses.
"Platoon leader, shall we go over?" Big-mouthed Song Ruimin asked. It was too dark in the tomb passage, and the seven people huddled together, not knowing whether to move forward or crawl back.
"Wait a minute, let me take a look." Wang Ke turned back to look at the Thief's Cave, and slowly he could see clearly.
Standing under the robber's hole and observing carefully, I found that the robber's hole was drilled directly against the east side of the tomb passage. There are also several foot holes on the wall of the tomb passage. One meter away on the south side is the Diamond Wall. This is a wall that seals the passage of coffins into the tomb of the underground palace. It is indestructible and is equivalent to the gate of the underground palace.
The calculation of this robbery hole was very accurate. I pried off the bricks and stones from the front of Dumb City and dug a very deep robbery hole. This hole went directly to the bottom of the screen wall, bypassed the diamond wall and then upward, forming a clever U-shaped robbery hole to avoid After opening the most difficult diamond wall to dig, we went straight down into the tomb passage of the underground palace.
Looking at it, I can see that the total length of the tomb passage is about fifty or sixty meters. It is estimated that it is about four to five hundred square meters in size.
Looking at the tomb passage again, it is a masonry structure without beams or columns. There are four stone doors inside, each with two doors. They are all carved from a single piece of blue and white stone that is more than three meters high, about tens of centimeters thick, and weighs more than ten tons.
There is also a Shimen Tower above the stone gate. Each of the eight stone gates has a vivid relief statue of Bodhisattva, each wearing a Buddhist crown, cassock, sitting on a lotus seat, and holding a magic weapon, representing strength, wisdom, desire, wealth, etc. . His demeanor is solemn and his momentum is mighty.
Wang Ke took a closer look and found that most of the eight stone doors were still ajar. They were pushed inward, but not all were opened.
If you are a tomb robber, how can you move a huge boulder? Wang Ke walked to the nearest stone door, gently pushed it again, and it moved effortlessly. Ah ha, there are indeed mechanisms on the upper and lower door shafts here.
It was too late to investigate. Wang Ke thought for a moment and said, "Everyone, follow me. Let's move forward."
Wang Ke began to fumble forward with six soldiers. Passed a stone gate, then passed another stone gate.
He was about to reach the last stone gate, but as he walked further, Wang Ke had more questions. Well, even if one person can push the door of this huge stone of 10,000 kilograms, there is a top door stone behind each stone door. How did the tomb robbers break the tap stone of the top door?
Those who close the door outside only need to close the two stone doors. The top stone of the stone door, a two-meter-high blue and white stone bar supported by the slot on the ground, will slowly fall down, and the upper end will make a steady "click" sound. , falls into the card slots of the two doors.
Only those who have been there will know that there are slots on the top and bottom of the stone door. The door stone weighs more than a thousand kilograms. It is absolutely impossible to use copper sheets and iron bars to push it open from the crack outside the door!
Wang Ke turned on the flashlight and looked at the card slot of the last stone door and the top door stone that fell to the side. He looked at it for a long time and found no flaws. Finally he bent down and tried to move the top door stone. Not to mention picking her up, she wouldn't even move even if she moved her.
After careful consideration, I can only come to one conclusion, that is, the person closing the door must be a traitor who is very familiar with the structure of the underground palace. The stone door was not closed at all, and the top stone did not fall down at all, or there was no top stone in the card slot at all.
It is said that the stolen top door stone was knocked down from the crack of the door by the tomb robbers. Judging from the scene, it is all lies.
"Platoon leader, what is there to see at this stone gate? Let's go see the emperor?" Gu Maolin's eyes were not enough from the moment he entered the tomb passage. By this time, it was already unbearable.
He doesn't believe that there is no treasure in this underground palace? Even if the tomb robber walked in a hurry, one or two pieces would be dropped on the ground!
Go through the fourth stone door and enter the golden coupon. The golden coupon is also called the tomb. In the underground palace, Jinquan is the largest main building, more than ten meters long from east to west, seven or eight meters wide from north to south, and three stories high. It is tall and spacious, and the surrounding areas around the top of the coupons and the sea are all made of blue and white jade.
There is a step here, also called the "treasure bed". It is the Zi Palace where the coffins of the emperor and empress are placed.
What’s funny is that next to the coffin at the archaeological site, the leader wearing blue overalls and glasses is holding the big lamp with one hand, swinging around, with three heads crowded together, and he doesn’t know what he is doing.
"Don't come here!" Probably hearing the noise, he raised the lamp and shined it on the seven soldiers.
The moment he raised the lamp, "Ah!" Sweet Potato Liang Xiaolong yelled in horror.
Wang Ke and the six soldiers were stunned at the same time. They all saw the most terrifying scene!
