Chapter 600 The Bond of Collusion

Onoda Jiro recorded some daily events in his diary at the beginning, but as time went by, he recorded less and less things, but every time a submarine entered the base, he did not miss it once. Everything that fell was recorded.

杨靖最后数了数，从1943年5月2日这支部队入驻这座基地，然后1943年内的5月8日接收第一批物资开始，一直到1944年6月7日傍晚这支部队从基地撤出，期间，这座基地一共接收了总共67次日军运送财物的潜艇进入到基地。

You must know that the submarines used by the Japanese army to transport property are the worst submarines with a water displacement of more than or close to 1500 tons.Among them, the most transported is the I-2 (I-2) submarine that entered here for the first time.

The number of times the main submarine of the Japanese Navy entered this base alone was as high as 38 times!

Only the main submarine of the Japanese Navy can have a rich transportation capacity of more than [-] tons.

That is to say, back then, the little devil used the main submarine to transport these properties, and the weight of the properties transported in each time was at least one hundred tons.

Combined with the records in Jiro Onoda’s diary, almost every time a submarine comes here, it will transport some small but heavy property, most of which are mainly precious metals.

In other words, the precious metals received by this base alone are at least [-] tons or more!
Although this number is almost insignificant compared to the 24 warehouses in the entire base, if the precious metals brought in are gold, platinum, and various gold and silver jewelry and silver dollars, then a total of [-] Tons of precious metals are definitely priceless.

Even if there is only a thousand tons of gold in it, it would be a sky-high wealth worth 400 billion U.S. dollars now.

But obviously, Little Japan will definitely not allow such a hidden base to store some low-value precious metals. Therefore, in this base, the most stored thing in those years should be gold!

In fact, this can also be seen from the running account. The four warehouses managed by the warehouse manager alone contain more than [-] tons of gold bricks, gold leaf and gold jewelry!

"June 1944, 6, overcast. This evening, Mr. Nakamura specially asked us to come out again, because Mr. Nakamura said that we will evacuate here tomorrow night and return to the mainland. We are on this island tonight. Last night of stay.

I know that the situation in the Pacific Ocean is imminent for the empire. Even though I don't know the specific battle situation outside, the number of American reconnaissance planes and fighter jets flying over the island every day has increased sharply in the past two months. , This is enough to show that the fighting situation outside is very urgent. It seems that the Americans are already approaching Guam or Saipan.

Mr. Nakamura told me during the evening wind, that the American fleet broke through the Marshall Islands a few months ago, and now it has surrounded Guam and Saipan. The decisive battle between Guam and Saipan is likely to be in The last few days have hit.Mr. Nakamura also said that because the base we are stationed at is too important, in order to avoid being discovered by the Americans, the operation of delivering supplies has ended, and we will leave here tomorrow night on a navy ship.As for the materials in the base, they are temporarily stored here. Anyway, it is hidden enough that the Americans will not find this base.

Doing the math, it has been more than thirteen months since I came here on May 5 last year.Although it is really boring here, it is safe anyway, unlike colleagues stationed in the Marshall Islands and New Guinea, who face the danger of broken jade every day.

Today is the last day of my stay here, and I will also write the last diary here tonight.I hope that I can reach the mainland safely, and that the empire can defeat the damned Americans! "

Yang Jing moved his eyes away from this diary, which was the last of the two diaries left by Onoda Jiro.

Obviously, if nothing unexpected happens, the Japanese army that has been stationed at this secret base for more than a year will leave the base the next day.But the materials stored here will not leave with them.

Thinking about it is also inevitable.The Japanese probably never thought that the Americans would come so fast and so fiercely, so the Japanese had no way to transport all the huge property stored in this base away.

The attack speed of the Americans obviously exceeded the expectations of the Japanese. At the end of 1943, the Americans began to attack the Marshall Islands, the last strategic line of defense before Guam and Saipan. As a result, the Americans relied on their superior aviation power to completely defeat the Marshall Islands in less than two months.

The failure of the Battle of the Marshall Islands dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese army, and the Japanese had not even escaped from the shadow of losing the Marshall Islands. They came to Guam and Saipan.

In the American offensive plan, Guam, Saipan, the Iwo Jima Islands, and the Ogasawara Islands are the second island chain, and as the Japanese lost the Marshall Islands, the Japanese used to resist the first island chain of the U.S. Navy, which is The Gilbert Islands, the Marshall Islands, and Wake Island were all lost, and the so-called "second island chain" of the Japanese faced American attacks.

The American soldiers were extremely quick, and they arrived at Guam and Saipan less than four months after the settlement of the Marshall Islands, which caught the Japanese by surprise.

Although the Japanese reinforced a large number of troops to Saipan and Guam in a timely manner, the entire second island chain has actually been under the attack and surveillance of the US Naval Aviation.

Yang Jing knew from historical data that the American attack plan was to attack Saipan on June 6 and land on Guam on June 15. Resistance and a massive attack by Japanese aircraft carriers delayed the invasion of Guam for a month.

Under such circumstances, the materials stored in this base in the Maug Islands naturally cannot be shipped out.By this time in the entire Pacific War, the Japanese had completely lost their air supremacy, and they could only rely on the strong fortifications on the island to resist the American attack.

However, the high-level executives of Little Japan are obviously very relieved about the concealment of this base. After all, it is underwater, and the Maug Islands are not a strategic location, so it is almost impossible for the Americans to discover here, so they dare to rest assured. The Japanese army on duty evacuated here, leaving only the materials and property here alone.

Yang Jing put down the diary in his hand, shook his head slightly and thought: "I just don't know when the little devil transported the property stored in this base out."

"However, it is almost certain now that this batch of treasures secretly stored in this base is probably stored by that guy Hirohito privately. After all, this base is so hidden, it is really suitable for storing some treasures that are not known to outsiders. Now it seems that the Japanese military base camp did not agree with Yamamoto 56’s wealth distribution plan at that time, I am afraid it had ulterior motives, because once the base camp issued a clear order, then this matter was considered clear. And the reason why it was not issued A clear order, but at the same time allowing Jiro Onishi Taki to build this base here, it must be that he does not want this matter to be made public, at least it will not be circulated among the top Japanese military, in order to achieve the purpose of secrecy. And the only one who can do this is Hirohito. After all, that guy is the Emperor of Japan!"

"Perhaps, Hirohito had already anticipated Japan's defeat, and he began to seek a way out for himself at that time!"

"Well, it must be so. After the war, so many high-level officials in Japan were executed, but Hirohito, the biggest culprit, was fine. Among the heads of state of the three major Axis countries, Hitler held The mistress committed suicide, and Mussolini was arrested and executed, but Hirohito was the only one who had nothing to do! And that bastard MacArthur dared to risk the world's dissatisfaction and blatantly protected Hirohito. Perhaps the United States wanted to continue after the war Supporting Hirohito as a puppet to achieve the ulterior motive of controlling Japan, but many people said that MacArthur accepted an unknown amount of wealth from Hirohito in private, which made MacArthur openly protect Hirohito."

Yang Jing shook his head again. At that time, after the end of World War II, many allies demanded the execution of Hirohito, but Japan did not agree. The condition of their surrender was to retain the position of Emperor Hirohito, and the countries headed by the United States agreed.And at that time, as a five-star general, MacArthur tried his best to protect Hirohito. He said: First, I will not let him die; second, I will not let Hirohito abdicate.

Such a blatant protection, if there is no trick in it, Yang Jing would dare to pick out his own eyeballs.

Although MacArthur made great contributions to the United States and World War II, this guy's character is not as noble as people imagined. This American five-star general is actually a very selfish person. Yang Jing has read a lot of information on this point I just found out.

Moreover, after Japan's defeat in the war, it only paid 15 billion U.S. dollars in compensation, and the payment was made in installments.What is this compensation enough for?Not to mention China, Southeast Asian countries, and the Korean Peninsula, this amount of money is not even enough for the Americans to fight the Pacific War!
But why is MacArthur still protecting Hirohito so much?

There must be a sound (cause) if it comes out of nowhere!

With MacArthur's greed and selfishness, if Hirohito gave less property in private, it would be absolutely impossible to impress this powerful five-star general.Only when MacArthur was shocked by the property given by Hirohito, this guy would spare no effort to protect Hirohito!
After World War II, the gold reserves of the huge Asian countries only accounted for 5% of the global gold reserves. Is this possible?Where did the original gold reserves go?
And Japan was able to rise strongly again within seven years after the war. If there is not enough capital, how could the Japanese rise so quickly?Where did these capitals come from?

Obviously, most of the huge amount of wealth that the Japanese plundered from Asian countries was hidden, but some of it was definitely given to the top American leaders headed by MacArthur in private, which saved Hirohito’s dog Life.

And the huge amount of wealth stored in this base is probably the link between Hirohito and the Americans!
