The U.S. Coast Guard patrol boat kept watch not far from the Fuqing until they finished slaughtering chickens and burning incense to worship Mazu on the Fuqing. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Info saw the diver with the oxygen tank on his back jump into the sea, Li Kongrong just returned to the cabin, it was too hot under the sun, he had to wait patiently for the diver to report back now, to see if there were really any crafts underneath.

The sun was a little westerly, and when Li Kongrong, who was enjoying afternoon tea, was almost asleep, a person appeared on the sea, this was diver Wang Yisheng, who held a piece of yellow, yellow, gray and gray with both hands, and shouted when he opened his mouth with oxygen: "Found it, found it!" ”

Wang Yisheng was a member of the Izumo that was blown up with mines in Shanghai last year, and this time Chen Jiliang transferred all the original six water ghosts. At this time, Wang Yisheng grabbed something and rushed out of the sea and shouted, a boatload of people all rushed onto the deck, and Li Kongrong was also pulled away by Qiu Zhongming. It was only when Wang Yisheng was dragged up from the sea and carefully took the thing that he thought was gold that he discovered this .......

"You're inside! It's a piece of copper! Captain Fang Ying scolded, and then threw the copper ingot onto the deck with a 'bang'.

"This is copper, why is it so heavy?" Wang Yisheng's smiling face suddenly froze, he thought it was a piece of gold.

"You're inside! You him. Have you ever seen gold the? Someone in the crowd laughed and scolded, Wang Yisheng looked embarrassed, he was a poor sailor, he had seen gold, but he had never touched gold. Hahahaha...... "Seeing Wang Yisheng embarrassed, everyone on the deck laughed.

"What's so funny!" Li Kongrong's sleepiness had long since disappeared, his heart was beating hard when he left the cabin, and he was very disappointed when the gold turned into a copper ingot in the end. "I can touch things as soon as I go, this is a good sign, they are all scattered for me, why should I go!"

Li Kongrong Everyone knows him, and even those who don't know him have heard of Jinshanwei's victory. The Fuqing came to Cuba thousands of miles away, and only now did I know that it was a treasure hunt. With Jin Shanwei in front of him, the people on the boat did not doubt that they could find gold this time. Now seeing Li Kongrong rushing away, everyone dispersed in laughter.

"How's it going down there?" When everyone left, Li Kongrong lit a cigarette for Fang Ying and Wang Yisheng. "Is this thing any good?"

"Bottom, bottom......" Wang Yisheng hurriedly took the cigarette, and then listened to Li Kongrong ask about the scuba he was carrying, he smiled dryly: "This thing is easy to use." After that, he remembered that Li Kongrong also asked about the situation below, and said: "The bottom is five or six zhang, not deep at all." ”

"Is the bottom of the sea flat?" While smoking, Li Kongrong began to look through the dozens of pounds of copper ingots on the deck, and finally found that it should be engraved in Spanish and Roman numerals.

"Flat, flat." Wang Yisheng smoked vigorously, as if he wanted to dive down quickly. "The sand is fine, and the water flushes a hole."

In addition to flushing out the turbid water at the bottom, the function of the mailbox is to dig a hole, Li Kongrong nodded slowly, his attention was no longer on Wang Yisheng, but on concentrating on studying the copper ingot that was fished up. Fang Ying asked, "Is this something?" ”

"Probably so." Li Kongrong said, he saw Wang Yisheng jump into the sea, so he said in detail: "At that time, the Lady Atoka was carrying nine hundred and one silver ingots, one hundred and sixty-one gold bars, as well as twenty bronze cannons, thousands of copper ingots, hundreds of thousands of gold and silver coins, and thousands of pairs of jewelry. This copper ingot is likely to be one of them, but it's hard to say. ”

"Hard to say?" Fang Ying was surprised and very suspicious, he thought that Li Kongrong could be sure of everything, but he didn't want him to be 'difficult to say' in the end. "Isn't it engraved in Spanish? It's Spanish how ......."

"The Caribbean Sea is unpredictable, and even the biggest ships sink when the storm comes, so there are shipwrecks every few kilometers in this area, most of them Spanish ships. We have no way of verifying the number on the ingot, who knows which ship it is. Li Kongrong finally stopped being interested in the copper ingot, clapped his hands and got up to look in the distance, fortunately, he didn't see the US Coast Guard.

"How can you be sure you've found it?" Fang Ying asked unrelentingly, and he began to feel that digging up the sunken ship was not so ridiculous.

"Finding that 88-pound silver bar, or finding a large collection of jewels and gold coins, is proof that we're in the right place." Li Kongrong said, stimulated by Wang Yisheng's fake gold, he felt that he had to calm down and prepare for a protracted battle.

Li Kongrong lied to himself to keep a normal heart, but before he returned to the cabin, two more people floated up on the sea, this time the two did not shout like Wang Yisheng, and Chen Lanfan, who was the leader, just shouted and the owner of the boat went down the rope ladder himself. When he got closer, he took out a yellow thing from his bosom and whispered, "Master Fang, I have found gold!" ”

The yellow thing is a golden and dazzling gold chain, about half a meter long, Fang Ying and Li Kongrong's eyes were red from it, and the gold chain was just that, and what the other person took out in his arms were gold coins and jewelry mixed with black and silver coins, of course, there were not many of them.

"Go in and say, go in and say." Fang Ying glanced around, and saw that everyone was busy, and there was no shadow of a ship on the sea, so she calmed down.

Less than five hours after entering the water, he found a gold chain, more than a dozen gold and silver coins, and three pieces of Western jewelry. Li Kongrong and Fang Ying didn't take a breath when they looked at these atmospheres, is there a treasure cave under the bottom of the sea?

"Looks like we're in luck." It was Li Kongrong who said something first. He grabbed the heavy gold chain and looked a little dazed. From thinking about the Lady Atoka to now, he finally saw hope instead of blind YY.

"If this wreck is really going to be fished up, how much will it be worth?" Fang Ying had a cigarette stuck to her mouth, but she never lit it.

"Gold and silver are worth about 10 million dollars." Li Kongrong said. "It's a pity that it's only a part of the wreck, and we can catch up on forty-seven tons of gold, silver, and jewelry. Gold and silver are also gold and the price of silver is too low now. However, according to the literature, we can still get more than 2,000 pairs of jewelry and more than 700 high-quality emeralds, which are difficult to say, I originally thought they would be a million dollars at most, but now it seems that they are seriously underestimated. If all of these are auctioned, I am afraid that the income will not be much lower than that of gold. ”

"That's worth $20 million?" Fang Ying was startled, and the cigarette sticking to her lips suddenly fell.

"Don't estimate so much, jewelry suddenly sold in large quantities and definitely can't be sold for so much money, the price of this kind of thing is speculated." Li Kongrong said, "Let's see it now...... It depends on how much smuggling there is. ”

"Smuggling?" Fang Ying was a little puzzled, but she was relieved after a while. The state collects taxes, and smuggling can avoid a lot of taxes.

"At that time, Spain had to charge a 20% tax on gold, but there was no tax on jewelry, that is, gold chains, so in order to avoid taxes, Spaniards liked to make gold into jewelry, especially this kind of gold chain." Li Kongrong picked up the gold chain on the table and put it down again. "Brother Xiuruo, do you know what the reconstruction of the navy is?" He asked again.

"Yes." Fang Ying nodded, he was actually one of the captains of the first aircraft carrier training ship, only after Gao Xianshen, the captain of the Ninghai, but if he simply compared the technology, he should be before Gao Xianshen.

"Brother Boliang said that the cost of renovating an aircraft carrier would be 7 million US dollars." Li Kongrong said, "This does not include the cost of airplanes and training, even if there are really 20 million US dollars, I think it is too little." The total funding gap for the reconstruction of the Navy is 30 to 40 million US dollars, but unfortunately this is the only one that can be identified as a shipwreck, and the others are either difficult to find or worthless. ”

"Worthless?" Although she had been shocked by many things, Fang Ying still stared at Li Kongrong, not understanding why he knew everything.

"yes, it's not worth it. There is only cultural relics value, not much cash value. At this time, Li Kongrong was thinking of the British Danmo Cave and the Hochson Treasure, and the things dug up in these two places were not as good as the Lady Atoka. The Hochson Treasure also had two hundred and fifty kilograms of gold, but it was worth $300,000, and with those gold coins, the physical value was $500,000.

Li Kongrong had an idea about the Hochson treasure, but he couldn't figure out whether the Mr. Rouse who dug up the treasure was born, and if he wasn't born and couldn't find his house, he wouldn't be able to dig three feet into the whole village. Thinking of this, he suddenly wanted to complain about the country, there is no valuable treasure at all, there was a tomb of King Liangzhuang in the Ming Dynasty in Hubei, known as a big treasure, there are thousands of treasures, in fact, all the gold in the tomb is less than fifteen kilograms in total, this is still the favored vassal king of Emperor Xuande.

"How did Hansheng ......" Fang Ying didn't know what Li Kongrong was thinking, she only felt that he was almost demonic, and he knew everything at all.

"Just read more books." Li Kongrong smiled, he also read tomb robbery novels to find out the root of all kinds of treasures. "Brother Xiuruo, everyone on the ship is reliable."

"Reliable." Seeing Li Kongrong ask about the crew, Fang Ying immediately turned positive. "They are all carefully selected by the ministry, and some of them are students who have just graduated from the sea school this year, which is specially instructed by Brother Xin."

Hearing that Fang Ying said that it was Lin Xianxi, Li Kongrong smiled in his heart, this was actually what he specially requested. Freshly graduated students are easier to manage than sailors who have served for many years, which is why many companies like to recruit fresh graduates. This is true at work, and even more so politically, as long as the slogan is loud and the ideal is high, it is not difficult for them to be crushed, but if you change to a person who has been in the society for many years, it is estimated that the slogan will not be shouted before he smells wrong.

Digging up a sunken ship is a dangerous job, especially if the ship is loaded with dozens of tons of gold, silver and jewelry, and the red-eyed soldier oil will definitely make up his mind - just such a gold chain weighing a few pounds can make them live a good life for a lifetime, so in Berlin Li Kongrong asked that at least half of the graduates of the aviation school should be on board, and the backbone crew should also be carefully selected, and all of them must have an innocent family background.

"Just be reliable." Li Kongrong nodded frequently, "These things are not enough for the reconstruction of the navy, but they can be used to live, and they can be fed and clothed for more than ten lifetimes." The most important thing is that the morale of the army is unstable, and the livelihood of more than 10,000 people in the navy is all on these things. ”

"Let's put it in the safe first." Fang Ying's expression was solemn when Li Kongrong said, he had told the crew before leaving the country that this operation was related to the fate of the entire navy and even the entire country, and whoever sabotaged it would be the enemy of more than 10,000 officers and men of the navy and the whole country. The reasoning was convincing, but in the end he still brought a few large safes.

"This will bother Brother Xiuruo, just register it here." Li Kongrong did not follow Fang Ying into the inner room, although he and Fang Ying were equal according to their rights and responsibilities.

Trading on the Fuqing has already opened, and the Ninghai in the Bering Sea is suffering from a catastrophe - just over an hour after being discovered by a Japanese reconnaissance plane, a group of Japanese planes appeared in the sky, which was a carrier-based aircraft taking off from the aircraft carrier Longxiang. Seeing the torpedo hanging under the belly of the Japanese plane in the telescope, Gao Xianshen pushed away the helmsman and began to steer it himself.

The Ninghai's anti-aircraft firepower was only six 76mm anti-aircraft guns and ten 7.7mm Type 92 anti-aircraft machine guns, and before the Japanese planes arrived, Gao Xianshen had a premonition that the Japanese aircraft carrier was nearby, so he asked the gunners to be in place, and even violated the code by moving a large number of machine gun shells to the machine gun positions. At this time, seeing the Japanese army, although the sailors were nervous, they felt that they could still fight. Seeing a column of planes in the distance gradually climb above their heads and prepare to dive, as Ganli was ordered by the major, the anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns opened fire together.

The anti-aircraft guns blew up clouds of black smoke in mid-air, and the anti-aircraft machine guns spit out long and intersecting chains of fire, but the Japanese planes still dived towards the Ninghai from the stern of the ship in accordance with the established formation. Hearing the reminder of the navigator Lieutenant Lin Renji, Gao Xianshen, who was at the helm, made the Ninghai turn sharply with a right full rudder in order to avoid the Japanese planes diving, although the Ninghai was a small boat, it was still too slow compared to the planes, and the three Japanese planes in front still aimed at the bridge and dived straight down; On the left and right front sides of the Ninghai, the torpedo planes on both sides also took advantage of the anti-aircraft fire to be attracted by the dive bombers and waited for an opportunity to fly closer.

"Torpedo machine!" Chen Binggen, the deputy gunner, pointed at the torpedo machines and screamed, and his voice actually overshadowed the guns. Because of his shouting, the anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns in the bow of the ship turned to the left and fired at those torpedo machines, and then it was too late, and before the anti-aircraft guns could fire, someone shouted: "The bomb has fallen!" The bomb fell!! ”

This was a bomb dropped by a dive bomber overhead, and most of the sailors lay down as soon as they heard that the bomb had fallen, and the firepower of the torpedo plane fired at the left side was immediately loosened -- in the tactics of the Japanese naval air force, the ship's explosion and the ship's attack were closely coordinated, but the root of the problem was that the ship's bomb first used 60 kilograms of bombs to attract and suppress the anti-aircraft fire, and the ship's attack was inserted from a large angle on both sides of the target's front, with the left and right attacking with the left and right with the left and the right when sailing in a straight line.

At this time, the Ninghai anti-aircraft fire was attracted by the ship's explosion that attacked first, and was suppressed by the falling bombs, and the ship's attack team on the left took the opportunity to release the torpedo perfectly, and then swept over the Ninghai while firing.
