Upon discovering this, the warriors immediately pushed open the door and cautiously walked down the passage to the underground.

The passage was less than three meters wide, and the steps extended downward, and because the light inside was so dim that there was almost no end in sight, the warriors went down these steps, and the light gradually dimmed, and one soldier hurriedly turned on his flashlight.

"Let's look and see if there's a light switch."

Because the fighters were on both sides of the passage, there were wall lamps every few meters away, and after a few minutes, one of the fighters found the power switch, and immediately, the lights on both sides of the passage came on.

The soldiers looked inside, and saw that the passage that extended down was at least dozens of meters down, with more than 200 steps, and the walls on both sides of the passage were all thick cement, which looked very solid.

"Squad leader! It looks quite deep inside, it can't be a big official with a little devil hidden inside! ”

"I don't think so." The squad leader groaned for a while, and said slowly: "The big official of the little devil has been completely eliminated by us on the top floor just now, there is a lieutenant general and major general of the little devil, and there should be no big official of the little devil hidden in this passage." ”

"Let's go! Let's go ahead and go down and have a look, but everyone be careful, and besides, Comrade Xiao Li, you go out quickly and inform the regiment commander, just say that we have found a passage that leads directly underground. ”

"Okay! Squad leader, be careful. The soldier named Xiao Li immediately trotted all the way and ran outside to inform his regiment commander and others.

The headquarters building of the "Imperial Bank" of small Japan.

The fighters of the building are cleaning up in the building, and on the first floor, there are fighters who have found a large amount of yen, which is the headquarters of the "Imperial Bank" of small Japan, and it is normal to find yen. However, the yen found this time is a bit much.

It's bundles of brand-new yen, at least hundreds, big bunches, at least millions of yen, and now the yen is about 4:1 to the dollar, which is about 4 yen to one dollar.

Nowadays, the U.S. dollar is very valuable, known as the "U.S. dollar", and 4 yen can be exchanged for one dollar. This shows that the yen is now more valuable and has strong purchasing power.

"Company commander! That's a lot of yen! ”

"Comrades! These yen are all our trophies, everyone take care of them and register them. ”

"Company commander! With so many yen, I'm afraid it will take a long time to count them clearly. ”

Hear the words. A large number of warriors around them burst into laughter.

"The chief is here! Here comes the chief!! ”

Many soldiers had already seen Comrade Liao Yaoxiang, commander of the 11th Group Army, accompanied by several senior commanders, walking into the bank hall.

Liao Yaoxiang walked in, and immediately saw the bundles of yen that were being moved out by the soldiers, seeing so many yen, Liao Yaoxiang was very interested, walked into these piles of yen money in a few steps, picked up a bundle and looked at it carefully. He said happily: "Good guy, there are so many, all brand new yen!" ”

"Chief! These yen are a lot, but these are small Japanese money. If only the dollar. ”

Hearing this, Liao Yaoxiang looked at the officer of the 11th Group Army who had just spoken, "Comrades! Though this is a yen. The yen is still relatively strong in Japan, and we can use the money to buy a lot of things in Japan. ”

Seeing Liao Yaoxiang say this, everyone's eyes lit up, although now Little Japan is losing and retreating, but there are many things that the soldiers can't rob openly! Especially for the small Japanese civilians, although the Chinese army killed a lot of small Japanese in Japan, they are far from the level of burning, killing and looting.

If you use this money to buy things in Little Japan, you will be much more civilized and will have a good reputation, and of course, the booty captured by the soldiers does not need to be bought.

For example, after the soldiers occupied the factory in Little Japan, the equipment in the factory belonged to the trophies, and the soldiers could directly disassemble and transport it back to China.

The soldiers who were not good next to them, and even many commanders and comrades, looked at these yen as if they saw a huge amount of supplies, and if they used these yen to buy grain, cloth, and other civilian materials in the Japanese domestic market, they did not know how much they could buy.

Everyone's eyes gradually lit up as they looked at these yen.

Liao Yaoxiang looked at the yen, and then said loudly: "Comrades! Let me be careful, this is the headquarters of the largest bank in Japan, and there should be a lot of things, definitely more than these yen. ”

After receiving the order, the soldiers were more careful, and a lot of yen was cleared out of the building, and even a small amount of gold and silver.

Seeing this small amount of gold and silver, Liao Yaoxiang was obviously not satisfied, this is the headquarters of Japan's "Imperial Bank", and there should be a small Japanese "Imperial Bank" treasury.

There should be a lot of gold reserves in Japan, and in the past few months, the warriors have recovered Kyushu, Japan, and a large part of the area of Honshu.

In the process of occupying Japanese territory, the soldiers also seized a lot of gold and silver, which together amounted to nearly 1,000 tons and 3 or 4,000 tons of silver.

As the commander of the group army, Liao Yaoxiang still knew a little about how much gold and silver had been seized in Japan, and he still knew the basic figures.

Liao Yaoxiang also knew that Zhang Yunfei had clearly told the commanders of the major group armies fighting on the Japanese mainland that there should be a lot of gold and silver in Japan, and that everyone should search carefully and transport all the gold and silver they found back to China.

Every time the soldiers occupied major cities in Japan, the banks and other places in the cities became the focus of everyone's search, and a lot of gold and silver were always found from these banks.

This is the headquarters of the largest "Imperial Bank" in Japan, and there should be a lot of gold and silver, but there is definitely more than that, and the bank's vault has not yet been found.

The amount of gold and silver that Japan plundered from China should have been massive, and the Qing Dynasty government compensated Japan with 200 million taels of silver for military expenses in the Treaty of Shimonoseki alone (later Japan demanded a ransom of 30 million taels of silver on the grounds of retreating to the occupied Liaodong Peninsula).

In ancient times, a catty was sixteen taels, and the weight of one tael of silver was one-sixteenth of a catty, and one catty in the old system was equal to sixteen taels. In the Qing Dynasty, one catty was equivalent to 596.82 grams, and one tael was equal to 37.30 grams.

2330 million taels of silver, what a terrifying number, converted into tons, it is more than 8,500 tons.

In addition, after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Japan invaded a large area of China's territory, and in the occupied area, the Japanese army was even more crazy to loot our gold and silver, and even antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jade and other valuable things.

Knowing that Little Japan had a large amount of gold and silver, Liao Yaoxiang loudly ordered the soldiers, "Comrades! Give me a closer look, there should be a large vault in Little Japan here. ”

There are definitely large vaults here, and this is the headquarters of Japan's largest bank.

At this time, this large underground vault was being discovered by the soldiers, and the underground passage that the soldiers found just now was the vault that led directly to the "Imperial Bank" of small Japan.

Now, the soldier named Xiao Li was reporting to his regimental commander, and the colonel, after listening to the report, felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, and immediately trotted all the way over.

Stand upright, and report loudly: "Chief! Our fighters discover an underground passage that could be the underground vault of Little Japan. ”

Hearing this, Liao Yaoxiang was overjoyed, and immediately waved his hand, "Go!" Comrades, let's go see. ”

At least a dozen commanders at all levels and dozens of soldiers gathered around Liao Yaoxiang and walked towards the underground passage in a hurry.

As soon as he entered the underground passage, Liao Yaoxiang was eighty percent sure that this must be an underground vault leading to Little Japan, and it may still be a large vault.

Look at the huge bluestones around this passage, you know, there must be a vault in front, and sure enough, everyone came to the end of this passage and saw a thick big iron door.

"Haha! It's definitely a little Japanese vault! ”

Liao Yaoxiang saw this heavy iron gate, and finally affirmed that this was the underground vault of the headquarters building of Japan's "Imperial Bank".

"Chief! This is the underground vault, and there must be a lot of gold and silver in it. ”

Liao Yaoxiang nodded, and then said loudly: "Hurry up and blow the door open for me." ”

Because they were going to blow up the door, everyone temporarily retreated, leaving only a few soldiers to plant explosives inside, and Liao Yaoxiang and everyone waited patiently outside.

Ten minutes later, only a muffled sound of "boom" was heard, and the soldiers knew that the gate must have been blown open.

"Let's go! Let's go down and see! ”

Under the leadership of Liao Yaoxiang, everyone walked down happily, at this time, the gunpowder smoke in the passage did not dissipate at all, and there was this pungent smell, but everyone didn't care about these at all.

Everyone eagerly wanted to know how much gold and silver was in this underground vault, and many people secretly thought in their hearts, don't let yourself down.

Liao Yaoxiang took the lead, slightly excited, and led everyone to walk quickly along the passage, after going down the more than 100 steps, and walking along the horizontal passage for dozens of meters, everyone soon came to the end of the passage and came to the thick iron gate.

Apparently, the iron gate has been blown open.
