Konoda Jiro's first diary also recorded some daily things, but with the passage of time, he recorded fewer and fewer things. However, every time a submarine entered the base, he recorded them all at once.
Yang Jing finally counted the number. From May 2, 1943, when the army settled in the base, and then received the first batch of materials on May 8, 1943, until the army withdrew from the base in the evening of June 7, 1944. During this period, the base received a total of 67 submarines transporting goods and materials the next day.
You know, the worst submarines used by the Japanese army to transport property are the main submarines with a water displacement of more than or close to 1500 tons. Among them, the most frequent transportation is the iraqi-2 (I-2) submarine that entered here for the first time.
Only this main submarine of the Japanese Navy entered the base 38 times!
Only the main submarines of the Japanese Navy can have a surplus transportation volume of more than 100 tons.
In other words, in those days, the little devils used main submarines to transport these properties, and the weight of the properties transported in each time was at least more than 100 tons.
Combined with the diary of konoda Jiro, almost every time a submarine comes here, it will transport some small and heavy property, most of which are mainly precious metals.
In other words, only the precious metals received by this base are at least more than 6700 tons!
Although this figure is almost insignificant compared with the 24 warehouses in the whole base, if the precious metals transported in are gold, platinum, various gold, silver jewelry and silver dollars, then a full 6700 tons of precious metals are absolutely priceless.
Even if there are only 1000 tons of gold, it is a sky high wealth worth $40 billion.
But obviously, little Japan will not allow such a hidden base to store some precious metals with low value. Therefore, the most stored thing in this base in that year should be gold!
In fact, this can also be seen from the daily account. The four warehouses managed by the warehouse alone contain more than 400 tons of gold bricks, gold foil and gold jewelry!
"June 6, 1944, overcast. This evening, Mr. Nakamura specially asked us to go out again, because Mr. Nakamura said that we would evacuate here and return to our homeland tomorrow night. Tonight is the last night we stayed on the island.
I know that the situation in the Pacific is imminent for the Empire. Even if I don't know the specific war situation outside, the number of American reconnaissance aircraft and fighter planes passing over the island every day in the past two months has soared, which is enough to show that the war situation outside is very urgent. It seems that the Americans have approached Guam or Saipan.
In the evening, Mr. Nakamura told me that the American fleet had broken 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 start in recent days. Mr. Nakamura also said that because the base we are stationed in is too important, in order to avoid being discovered by the Americans, it is necessary to transport goods The movement is over, and we will leave here by navy ship tomorrow night. As for the materials in the base, they will be stored here temporarily. Anyway, it is hidden enough that Americans will not find the base.
It's been more than 13 months since I came here on May 2 last year. Although it's really boring, it's safe at least. Unlike my colleagues stationed in the Marshall Islands and New Guinea, they face the danger of jade fragments every day.
Today is the last day I stay here. I also write my last diary here tonight. I hope I can safely arrive at home and the empire can defeat the damn Americans! "
Yang Jing looked away from the diary, which was the last of the two diaries left by konoda Jiro.
Obviously, if nothing happens, the Japanese army 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.
Think it's inevitable. I'm afraid I didn't expect the Americans to come so fast and so fiercely, so I couldn't transport all the huge belongings stored in this base at that time.
The attack speed of the Americans obviously exceeded Japan's expectations. At the end of 1943, the Americans began to attack the Marshall Islands, the last strategic defense line before Guam and Saipan. As a result, the Americans completely defeated the Marshall Islands in less than two months with their superior aviation power.
The failure of the Marshall Islands campaign dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese army. Japan itself had not even got rid of the shadow of losing the Marshall Islands. The Americans, with the momentum of the victory of the Marshall Islands, came to Guam and Saipan in just four months.
In the American attack plan, Guam, Saipan, Iwo Jima and Ogasawara Islands are the second island chain. With Japan's loss of the Marshall Islands, Japan's first island chain used to resist the U.S. Navy, namely Gilbert Islands, Marshall Islands and Wake Island, are all lost. Japan's so-called "second island chain" is facing American attacks.
The Americans were very quick. Less than four months after the settlement of the Marshall Islands, they came to Guam and Saipan, which caught Japan by surprise.
Although Japan itself has timely reinforced a large number of military forces to Saipan and Guam, the whole second island chain is actually under the attack and surveillance of the U.S. Navy aviation.
Yang Jing knows from historical data that the attack plan formulated by the Americans at that time was to attack Saipan on June 15 and land on Guam on June 18. However, an unexpected large number of defenders on Saipan made very tenacious resistance and the large-scale attack of Japanese aircraft carriers, which delayed the invasion of Guam for one month.
In this case, the materials stored in this base in the Maug islands cannot be transported out. By this time of the entire Pacific campaign, Japan had completely lost its air supremacy, and they could only rely on the solid Fortifications on the island to resist the pace of the American attack.
However, the senior management of Kobayashi obviously felt very relieved about the concealment of the base. After all, it was underwater, and the Maoge islands was not a strategic place, so it was almost impossible for the Americans to find it. Only then did they dare to safely and boldly withdraw the Japanese troops on duty from here, leaving only the materials and property here alone.
Yang Jing put down her diary, shook her head slightly and thought, "I just don't know when the little devil transported the property stored in this base..."
"But now it's almost certain that eight out of ten of the treasures secretly stored in this base were privately stored by Yuren. After all, this base is so hidden that it's really suitable for storing some secret wealth that outsiders don't know. Now it seems that the Japanese base camp didn't agree with Yamamoto's wealth diversion plan at that time, I'm afraid it had ulterior motives, Because once the base camp gives a clear order, it will be clear. The reason why it does not give a clear order, but at the same time allows Yoshiro oshitani to build the base here, is that it certainly does not want to be made public. At least it will not spread among the top Japanese military to achieve the purpose of confidentiality. Those who can do this, It's just Yuren. After all, that guy is the emperor of Japan! "
"Perhaps Hirohito had expected the defeat of Japan, and he began to seek a way back for his own at that time!"
"Well, it must be. After the war, so many high-level officials in Japan were executed, but Yuren, the biggest culprit, didn't do anything. * * * among the heads of state of the Three Axis powers, sitler committed suicide with love. Mussolini was arrested and executed, but Yuren didn't do anything! And that bastard MacArthur dared to risk universal condemnation and openly protect Yuren Jen. Maybe the United States wants to continue to support Yuren as a puppet after the war, so as to control Japan, but many people say that MacArthur secretly accepted the huge amount of wealth sent by Yuren, which makes MacArthur openly protect Yuren. "
Yang Jing shook her head again. At that time, after the end of World War II, many allies asked for the execution of Hirohito, but Japan disagreed. The condition for their surrender was to retain the position of Emperor Hirohito, and the countries led by the United States agreed. And at that time, as a five-star general, MacArthur tried his best to protect Yuren. He said: first, I won't let him die; Second, I won't let Yuren abdicate.
With such blatant protection, if there is no fishiness in it, Yang Jing dares to pull out her eyes.
Although MacArthur has made great contributions to the United States and World War II, his character is not as noble as people think. The American five-star general is actually a very selfish person, which Yang Jing learned after reading a lot of materials.
Moreover, after Japan's defeat, only $1.5 billion was compensated, and his sister was paid in instalments. What is this compensation enough for? Not to mention China, Southeast Asian countries and the Korean Peninsula, this money is not even enough for Americans to fight the Pacific War!
But why did MacArthur protect Yuren so much?
Wind from nowhere, there must be sound (cause)!
With MacArthur's greed and selfishness, if Hirohito gives less private property, it is absolutely impossible to move the strong five-star general. Only when the property given by Yuren surprised MacArthur, this guy would spare no effort to protect Yuren!
After World War II, the huge gold reserves of Asian countries accounted for only 5% of the global gold reserves. Is this possible? Where have all the gold reserves gone?
Japan was able to rise strongly again within seven years after the war. If it didn't have enough capital, how could Japan rise so quickly? Where did the capital come from?
Obviously, the vast majority of the huge wealth seized by Japan in Asian countries was hidden, but some of it was definitely sent privately to the senior American leaders led by MacArthur, which saved Yuren's life.
The wealth stored in this base is probably the link between Yuren and the Americans!
