Chapter 321: Victorious Retreat
It is not accurate to say that at 12 o'clock in the evening of April 30, the entire temple of Padmanabhaswamy fell into silence. Because at the door of the temple, a group of Soviets were drinking vodka in a prodigal manner, and the drunkenness brought by the vodka and the fact that they had already been sprayed with perfume made these KGBs, who were fighting thousands of miles away, withstand the strong attack of the native mosquitoes in India, they don't know why Serov gave such an order, but this order to drink wine was easily accepted, and the Indian guards who fell to the ground were just incidentals.
On the river not far from them, the agents of the First General Bureau, who were actually on a mission, stood with grim faces, equipped with infrared night vision devices issued for the operation, and their mission was to monitor the few passages that could enter the temple, and they also had thermal imaging cameras that could detect living objects on their bodies. Each person is equipped with a walkie-talkie to ensure that they have a full view of everything around the temple.
This kind of task is not impossible for the soldiers of the secret police corps, who, before the establishment of the police headquarters, were also members of the protection of the country's top cadres, and who are most of the people they watch every day.
At the door of the secret room, Serov looked down at the time with a metal box and said softly, "The time should be almost up, our things should have worked!" Then he took out a crowbar from inside, and at the same time took out a large lock, and looked closely at the same as the big lock on the door, Serov had already copied an identical large lock before the operation, this kind of protection from nearly a century ago was not technical, it was not too simple for a super intelligence department to copy this kind of thing, and even the rust and color on it were exactly the same, at least no one could see any difference from the appearance.
What Serov said in his mouth is something similar to ****, which can make people unconscious. However, the things produced by the KGB are much more powerful than ****, except for a little side effect. Anyway, the entire temple guards were poured vodka with them, so there shouldn't be any problems the next day.
He compared the big lock in his hand with the door, and at the same time took out the key that had been prepared, which could not be opened as expected, and now he had to use a crowbar. Let Major Steffield hold the flashlight, and Serov take the crowbar and press the lock, and the big lock will be opened. Sticking his hand to the gate, Serov showed the inhuman side of his body in this operation, the muscles on his body were not practiced in vain, and in the horrified gaze of Major Steffeld, at least a few hundred pounds of the gate were slowly pushed open.
"Call down all the people who haven't had much to drink, remember what I told you earlier, and bring the equipment down with you! We don't have much time. It's a must! Serov ordered while looking at his watch, "And the oxygen cutter, move it down together!" ”
With that, Serov went straight into the passage, with Major Steffy following behind. Walking down the passage, I didn't see anything, this secret room, empty. Not for a while. There was a small but very neat sound of footsteps, and the entire passage was filled with comrades from the secret police corps. Ordered these people to move the boulder away, and almost instantly saw a secret passage appear in front of everyone, "I won't come back in ten minutes, so you can come in and collect the body for me!" Serov glanced at the time while wearing the oxygen mask, and the closed environment in the passage made his voice very clear.
Picking up the box and disappearing from everyone's sight without looking back, this time Serov did not use any machinery. Because machinery is noisy, the people he selected are all powerful soldiers of the secret police corps, and this time Serov is going to use these people as coolies, in short, to replace machines with manpower. It won't be discovered for a short time.
Only two minutes had passed. Serov saw the legendary treasure, and under the light of the flashlight of the box in his hand, he saw a dazzling golden light, which was really a sinful light. Serov could barely control his emotions when he entered the first chamber, although the wealth in his hands was no less than the treasure of this temple, and even far more than in dollar terms, but the numbers were different from the real thing, and almost no one could hold on to such a scene.
Can't be embarrassed by the KGB, Lao Tzu is a person who has seen strong winds and waves, and he has seen a lot of battles, Serov, who swallowed a mouthful of spit, directly opened the metal box he was carrying, in fact, there was only a bottle of oxygen, a crowbar and a lock in this box. Directly stepped forward to put the three crowns and the eye-catching diamond and ruby into the box, Serov returned the same way without hesitation, and whispered to the hundred soldiers, "Stay for a while, whatever you see, you must remain calm." Get started now......"
More than a hundred fighters of the secret police corps looked stunned until Serov reminded, "Let's get to work first, and we'll continue to talk about this operation when we get home!" "More than 100 fighters were working together in front of the doors of the six secret rooms, and the gold was moving, but as a member of the KGB, these fighters knew exactly what kind of unit their department was.
"Two hours of action, hurry!" Serov whispered an urge, using more than a hundred weight-trained elite soldiers as porters was the result of Serov's estimation of the weight of gold. It's life experience at work, he once saw a day of work for a heavy manual laborer, and decided how many people to bring in when he felt that there was no problem with manpower.
Stimulated by gold, the fighters of the secret police corps showed with their actions that Serov's idea of replacing machines with manpower was not wrong at all, and the soldiers in front of him did not know fatigue at all, and under the constant urging of their own heads, they burst out with great potential.
"Major Steffeld, let the comrades above prepare the canvas, pick out thirty people and leave immediately in five trucks, go to the stronghold for camouflage, and immediately go to the port after the camouflage is completed, find the 654-ton ocean-going fishing boat, the 4,000-ton fishing boat is empty, someone will pick you up!" An hour and a half later, Serov directed the sweeping work to check for missing items, such as lost equipment and fallen gold coins and jewelry.
Finally, return to the secret passage and block the boulder, continue to eliminate the traces and return to the door of the passage to lock the gate, if no one opens the passage for twenty years, all traces inside will be buried with the dust.
Seeing the canvas-covered truck slowly starting, Serov took a long deep breath, took out the walkie-talkie and ordered the soldiers standing guard outside, "The operation is complete, you come to the temple to drink and celebrate!" "If I am not mistaken, a group of Soviet drunks will appear at the door of the temple the next day. But he is still not idle, still recalling the actions just now to see if there are no mistakes.
On the morning of the first day of May, Serov beckoned Valya at dawn, gave his wife the metal box he had held last night, and said, "Go to the port now and get on the ocean-going fishing boat 654, and we are ready to return home!" ”
"What's so heavy?" Valya tugged hard at the box but didn't move, and asked in confusion.
"I went to the port and got on the ship to watch, remember, there can't be anyone next to it when it is opened!" Serov solemnly commanded, usually he would not talk like this to his own women, but now it is different, this is India, and he is not paying attention to his life. You must know that they only have a small number of weapons on them, and even if they look down on the Indian army, Serov cannot fight with his fists against each other. He took off the pistol from his waist and stuffed it into Valya's hand and said, "Obedient, I'm going to finish it, and I'll meet you tomorrow......"
May Day was a grand holiday for the Soviet Union, when Engels' Second International was founded, and after a bitter and bloody struggle, it finally won victory. To commemorate the workers' movement, the Congress of Socialists, convened by Marxists from all over the world, was solemnly opened in Paris, France. At the congress, the delegates unanimously agreed to designate May 1 as the common holiday of the international proletariat. This decision was immediately and positively responded to by workers around the world. The working class in Europe and the United States took the lead in taking to the streets, holding grand demonstrations and rallies to fight for their legitimate rights and interests. Since then, on this day, working people from all over the world have to assemble and parade to celebrate, and the public has a holiday. At this time, in Moscow, the capital of the Soviet Union, a grand parade was being held on the streets to celebrate the annual May Day.
Serov also took advantage of this day to continue to stay in the temple to celebrate, and even the Soviet soldiers who transported the gold to the port came back and continued to celebrate in front of the temple, unlike yesterday, the comrades who participated in the operation were strictly ordered by Serov not to drink, today is just an ordinary celebration, the next day on May 2, they left the Padmanabaswamy Temple, but they were still in Kerala, because they had to do a full set of plays, Serov and his party were very bold to continue their journey and went to another prestigious temple, That is also the last destination in the Kerala application.
It wasn't until the 5th of May that the trip to Kerala was completed, and in the intervening days, the group began to erase the traces of their existence in Kerala, the intelligence officers who had been lurking a few years ago would retreat with the secret police corps, the established strongholds would be abandoned, all the equipment prepared would be dismantled into scrap metal, oxygen tanks would be smashed flat and thrown into the river, and all this was done, and Serov was on the deck of the Ocean 654, the ocean-going fishing vessel was actually empty, and there was nothing on it except sailors, There are also no fishing tasks. Looking at the fading state of Kerala, Serov ordered, "Count the results of the operation immediately!" (To be continued.) )
