"What are you talking about? More than 600 tons of gold?" Li Yunlong also opened his eyes wide when he heard Qin Baoshan's words. His performance was definitely more exaggerated than Hidetoshi Miura's.
More than 600 tons of gold, what does this mean? Li Yunlong is much clearer than others.
Even Lao Jiang's government does not have so much gold in stock now. If the Eighth Route Army obtains this batch of gold, it will play a very important role in the consolidation of the regime in the future. Even if Li Yunlong has not studied economics, he knows that the legal currency issued by the Lao Jiang government has become waste paper , because he has no corresponding gold reserves.
After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he looked around again. He originally had a loud voice, and he was afraid that what he just said would be heard by others, which would have a negative impact on the Eighth Route Army.
However, Qin Baoshan had been prepared for a long time, and when he was talking to him, he had already left everyone behind. After all, Qin Baoshan knew very well in his heart that so much gold was enough to move many people's hearts.
For gold, needless to say, there are hundreds of tons, even if it is a few hundred catties, it is still a huge fortune. I don't know how many bloody storms will be caused by these more than 600 tons of gold! At this time, Li Yunlong was more interested in how did Qin Baoshan know? How come Qin Baoshan never told himself before?
Facing Li Yunlong's suspicion, Qin Baoshan's explanation was also very straightforward.
"When I first came to Northeast China, I came with a ghost woman named Yunzi. You should know that. It was from the mouth of the ghost woman that I got the news. But the high-level devils can't I'm sure, it's just an inference. The one who really knows the truth should be a senior officer in the Devil's Kwantung Army. Now I have this opportunity. If I can get the whereabouts of the gold, that's of course the best. If I can't, then We have nothing to lose."
Qin Baoshan directly shifted the responsibility to Yunzi. Anyway, there is no way to verify it now. As for how Qin Baoshan knew it, it is of course the advantage of the traveler.
After the establishment of China, in the first five-year plan, 600 tons of gold were unearthed in the Northeast region, which caused a sensation all over the world. The little devil said it belonged to them, and the Soviet Union in the north also said it belonged to them. This batch of gold became a big event in those days. (There is also a saying that this is fake news, and now Hua Xiong has used it, so let¡¯s treat it as true.)
If it is carefully researched, this matter should have started in 1914, when the First World War broke out. At that time, the Russian system of the Three Emperors was backward and suffered defeat in the war. In order to be able to continue fighting, they extorted money from the people, and finally confiscated more than 600 tons of gold. But after they raised the wealth, the October Revolution sounded, and the rule of Tsarist Russia was over.
The people who guarded the gold at that time hid the gold secretly. So the gold evaporated from the world, and no one knows where the gold went.
However, the newly established Soviet regime is not stable, and many people are still trying to restore it. Among them was a guy named Petrov, who led a large number of white bandits and occupied some territory. Petrov also very much hoped to get this batch of gold to complete his restoration.
As a result, at the end of 1918, Petrov finally found the gold in Kazan and took it for himself.
Originally, Petrov was just an unimportant force in the White Bandit Army. When it was learned that this army had won the gold, the Soviet Red Army immediately launched an attack on Petrov with all its strength. So Petrov could only hand over the gold to Kolchak, the supreme leader of the White Bandit Army.
Originally thought it would be very safe, but it didn't take long for the White Army to be wiped out by the Soviet Red Army. It's just that the Soviet Red Army only found a few tons of gold at that time, and the remaining hundreds of tons of gold have disappeared.
This batch of gold has always been on Petrov's mind. When he discovered that Kolchak was being chased by the Soviet Red Army, Petrov ran away with a train full of gold and ran to the northeast. 1920 thing.
Petrov originally wanted to ask the devil's army to protect his army and gold. But how could the little devil listen to him? Seeing this batch of gold, the little devil's eyes lit up, and they immediately took all the gold into their pockets.
It is said that the Kwantung Army of the little devil has obtained so much wealth, it should be handed over. But the senior officers of the Kwantung Army had a thought. Being an official for thousands of miles is only for money. Although this sentence is not appropriate to describe the little devils at that time. The little devils became soldiers with a great ideal, but when they saw the goldAt that time, the senior officers of these devils still made their decision: keep the gold in their own hands.
They simply made a report to their superiors, saying that they had won some spoils in a battle. These trophies were used as their own military expenses, so the top officials of the devils did not know that the Kwantung Army had obtained a large amount of gold.
With so many golden little devils, it is not easy for the officers of the Kwantung Army to transport them back to the devil's native land, so they are now hiding somewhere in the northeast. Even Qin Baoshan didn't know where it was.
After all, Qin Baoshan only knew where the gold was excavated later, but it was already buried in 1945 when the little devil surrendered. It's not even 1944, and the gold is definitely not buried in the ground, but in some warehouse of the kid.
This warehouse should be guarded by the most trusted guard of the senior officers of the Kwantung Army. Qin Baoshan didn't know where it was. But if there is this batch of gold, then General Yokohama, as the deputy commander of the Kwantung Army, must know about it.
There is no need for Qin Baoshan to explain these things to Li Yunlong, as long as Li Yunlong knows that there is indeed such a batch of gold, that's fine. Now Qin Baoshan told Li Yunlong about this matter, and sure enough, Li Yunlong's eyes were already shining with light. It was like there were countless gold dancing in front of his eyes.
Li Yunlong has always been very fond of money, but he didn't spend it on himself. All the things he looted were spent on his own troops, and he didn't even have clean clothes.
How could Li Yunlong be unhappy when he got this news? If these wealth were brought over, as long as the odds were kept and used by oneself, Li Yunlong's army would definitely become an army of local tyrants. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
