Chapter 588: Class XXI U-Boat, Amber Palace (4k)



“Beep~~”

The next second, the little red dot representing Xia Yu also appeared on the map.

"Now let's go check out the forward torpedo room!"

As soon as Xia Yu finished speaking, a route leading to the front torpedo room was planned in his sight.

The XXI-class U-boat has six torpedo tubes and can carry 23 torpedoes or 17 torpedoes and 12 mines. Xia Yu read in the document that because it was not performing combat missions, U-2526 only carried six torpedoes for self-defense, and the saved space was used to store cargo.

The cargo is the treasure. Following the navigation, Xia Yu arrived at the torpedo room and saw a large wooden box piled full in the middle, and a skeletonized corpse next to it.

The military uniform worn by the corpse was slightly different from that of the Wehrmacht and SS in movies and TV shows, with a First Class Iron Cross medal pinned on the collar.

Xia Yu shone the flashlight around and found a navy-style Luger P08 on the ground.

When you bend down to pick it up, you can see that the bullet is loaded. The captain used this gun to end his life and completed his final mission.

How should I put it? It was probably because of the times. When World War II was still a hot topic, Xia Yu also saw a lot of them. The most common type of uniform was the ? army uniform.

No matter how the book tries to change fate, in the end, just like that period of history, everything disappears into thin air.

"Captain Herr Maas, excuse me."

Xia Yu said hello and began to collect the remains. He did not touch the pistol and medals. The rich man only looked for treasures, not gold. He left the things as they were and buried them together when he got out.

After doing all this, he finally turned his attention back to the boxes.

Xia Yu counted them and found that there were 30 boxes in total, which was consistent with the records in the document.

In addition to the 27 boxes of disassembled Amber Room, there were also 3 boxes filled with gold. As a man with a gold mine at home, Xia Yu was not excited about this, even though the three boxes of gold weighed nearly two tons.

At the current international gold price, 100 million US dollars is still a little short.

Xia Yu is not short of money, so naturally he would not spend it. He has already thought of the use of the gold.

This time he first transported 30 boxes back, and the XXI-class U-boat was temporarily sealed here. His Polaris had a maximum speed of only 20 km/h. Towing such a big guy in the Arctic Ocean covered with ice, he might not be able to reach Kana Island until after the New Year.

He will come back next time to transport it back. If he has the chance in the future, he can also try to salvage other U-boats. Hundreds of U-boats were sunk throughout World War II, and more than 200 of them chose to sink themselves after surrendering to the Allies.

This strong sense of déjà vu reminded Xia Yu of Operation Rainbow during World War I. I admit that I was defeated, but I can't leave the things to you. They all sank.

Even if it sinks, it can be salvaged. The Polaris has a certain salvage capability after modification. Xia Yu himself is even more powerful. He can salvage some of the U-boats lost in various sea areas to enrich his private submarine collection.

With the ability and a place to put it, half the job is done. Xia Yu looked at his watch and prepared to transport the treasure back to the Polaris.

At this time, a new problem arises. It is easy to say that transporting these treasures back, but does he have to carry them out box by box?

It would take until dawn to carry the 27 boxes of the Amber Room together weighing 6 tons, plus 2 tons of gold bricks. This was not a task that one person could accomplish.

While Xia Yu was thinking, he glanced at the torpedo tube beside him, and he seemed to have an idea.

The torpedo tube is not only used to launch torpedoes, it can also be used for emergency escape of crew members. Xia Yu can completely wrap these boxes with Poseidon bubbles and launch them all out.

Although this XXI-class U-boat has been lying on the seabed for more than 70 years, it is 99% new. It would be a bit like a dream to operate it without maintenance. There is a possibility of success if it simply uses the torpedo tubes.

What's more, there are 6 launch tubes. He can gamble 6 times like the Osmos wheel. As long as one of them succeeds, it will be a great luck.

Xia Yu felt that he was a pretty good person, so he took out his cell phone and started searching for information on how to use torpedo tubes. He had collected this kind of information before.

The first step in launching a torpedo is to calculate the data. Xia Yu skipped this step directly, opened one of the launch tubes, and carefully unloaded the pre-installed torpedo inside.

It is really impossible to lift this huge thing weighing one and a half tons by oneself, and it requires the help of lifting equipment.

Xia Yu didn't know whether the torpedo's charge had expired, but the battery was definitely dead. He could take it apart and replace it with two 2.0 batteries when he had the chance. Maybe he could still launch it to fry fish.

Xia Yu has always been obsessed with fried fish, and this time he has found a treasure, but it is a little old.

"Buzz~~"

I connected the small high-energy power supply and started the hydraulic external door. I only heard the sound but no water came in. It must be blocked from the outside.

Xia Yu went out and used tools to clean the gap of the launch port hatch. He came back and tried again. The hatch opened smoothly and the sea water rushed in instantly.

He pressed his hand on the torpedo tube, and an invisible force blocked the water at the loading port. The power of Poseidon was so terrifying.

After completing this step, Xia Yu pushed the box on the crane into the launch tube, and it was automatically wrapped in a bubble when passing through the water.

In this way, one box after another was pushed into the sea, and finally all of them were poked out of the launch tube with a stick.

After closing the door and pulling the shutter, Xia Yu prepared to retreat, carrying the box containing Her Mas's body.

After passing through the airtight hatch of the submarine's hull, Xia Yu took out a handheld laser welder from his belt and sealed the gap that was violently cut.

This was also a little gadget he won in a lottery. He had wanted to convert it into a lightsaber, but it was a little short, and even Master Yoda couldn't reach it, so he could only weld some things together.

My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
