The information Yang Jing had read clearly stated that the wealth plundered by the Japanese from China and Southeast Asia was extremely astonishing. Most of the wealth was transported back to Japan. It was said that the wealth was stored in some abandoned mines in Japan, and some was hidden in the mountains of Nagano Prefecture, ready for the last resistance in the event of defeat. The Japanese military once drove tens of thousands of North Korean laborers to dig a huge underground fortification group there, and then secretly killed them to prevent the secret of the treasure from being leaked.
Some of the wealth was transported to Japan when the ships carrying it were sunk by American submarines. For example, the famous transport ship "Awa Maru", which was rumored to be the one transporting the skull of the Beijing people, was loaded with 40 tons of gold, 12 tons of platinum, and 150,000 carats of industrial diamonds!
The Awa Maru was just one of many Japanese transport ships sunk by American submarines!
Whether it is the sunken ship or the property transported back to the mainland, the quantity is enormous!
The secret base in front of us is just one of the many bases built by the Japanese back then, but in this base alone, there are 24 warehouses. If all these warehouses were filled with precious metals and other valuables, how much would it be?
These damn Japs stole so many good things back then!
......
"BOSS, BOSS..." Yang Jing, who was lost in thought, was awakened by Chris's call.
"Oh, Sao Rui, I was thinking about something just now and was a little distracted." Yang Jing gave Chris an apologetic smile, "What's the matter?"
"Boss, I think you should take a look at this. This is the video Mark just sent over from outside." Chris was holding a tablet computer with a frozen video screen on it.
Chris hit the pause button, and the picture suddenly appeared. The picture above was recorded by the camera worn by Mark, stored in the storage device he carried with him, and then transmitted to Chris via radio.
The picture was a little shaky and not very clear, but it could be seen that Mark was in a military camp.
When Yang Jing went out just now, he did not open the military camps, but the outside of the military camps was very clean, so he did not expect that the inside of the military camps was actually quite messy, as if the Japanese soldiers on duty left in a hurry.
Because a generator was already running, the lighting in the military camp was still very good. Through the camera, Yang Jing could clearly see that Ma Ke's figure finally stopped on a camp bed.
The camp bed was covered with dust, and the quilt and other things had been taken away long ago, but there were some messy papers on the bed, and in the gap between the bed and the wall, there were several notebooks. Mark picked up one of the notebooks, opened it and placed it in front of the camera.
However, the information in this notebook is all written in Japanese, which no one can understand. But judging from the format of the records in the notebook, it seems to be a diary.
Yang Jing could vaguely see what was written on it. As soon as he took a look, he immediately determined that this was a missed diary.
As Mark opened the remaining notebooks, he found that one of them was a diary, but the other two were not diaries.
Yang Jing hesitated for a moment and said, "Chris, you guys continue searching here. I'll go out and take a look."
After Yang Jing went out of the simple airtight cabin, he found Mark just walking out of a military camp.
"Are there any other discoveries?" Yang Jing asked.
Mark shook his head and a trace of regret appeared on his masked face. "BOSS, there are only four military camps here. I have just checked them all carefully. The Japanese took away almost everything when they left, but only found these things on that bed." Then, Mark took out the notebooks that appeared in the video from his backpack and handed them to Yang Jing.
"But Boss, the owner of these notebooks seems to be a military doctor. There is a clear red cross mark on his bedside."
Yang Jing nodded when he heard this, and slightly flipped through the yellowed notebooks, then looked up and said with a smile: "Mark, you've worked hard. Come with me to see this secret base built by the Japanese during World War II."
When the two returned to the warehouse area of the base again, they found that Chris and the others had taken off their masks.
"Boss, I just tested it and the oxygen content here has reached a level that allows normal breathing. The harmful gases here have been almost diluted by the oxygen produced by the oxygen generator and have no effect on our human body."
Seeing that no one had any problems, Yang Jing and Mark also took off their masks. In the two corners of the warehouse area, two huge industrial-grade oxygen generators were rumbling.
"Boss, there is a huge anchor windlass over there. Do you want to go over and take a look?" Kevin Martin said, "That should be the device used to activate the underwater gate."
Yang Jing nodded, and the group walked along the east side of the warehouse to the slipway. On the east side of the slipway, a huge steel machine appeared in everyone's sight.
This is a ship anchor windlass, but it is quite old and large. The high-power motor on the anchor windlass alone has a diameter of more than one meter. Obviously, this anchor windlass was probably disassembled from a large ship. After all, the underwater door and the rock walls attached to it must be very heavy. Only this kind of large ship anchor windlass can pull this door.
