Chapter 215 Oriole

  The Rhine River is the largest river in Western Europe. It originates in the northern foothills of the Alps in Switzerland, flows northwest through Liechtenstein, Austria, France, Germany and the Netherlands, and finally flows into the North Sea near Rotterdam.

  Since the Vienna Conference in 1815, it has become an international shipping waterway with a navigable length of about 869 kilometers. This river is an important transportation route for the import and export of Swiss industrial products.

  With the end of the war, the Rhine has slowly returned to its former prosperity.

  A thousand-ton cargo ship from Strasbourg sailed south in the early morning mist. This kind of ship is very common on the Rhine River, and it didn't attract anyone's attention at all.

  In addition to the captain of this cargo ship, there is also an **** in French military uniform, and a middle-aged man in casual clothes, busy with you in the cabin.

  If you walk in, you can see that the man in the cabin is removing the seals from the wooden boxes and replacing them with new ones.

  The seals that were removed had clear markings on them. Obviously, these were the real treasures transported by Gestapo officers from Stuttgart.

   "Sir, so many people from the French transport company participated in this operation, will they be discovered?"

  The captain who steered the boat seriously looked at Leon who was wearing a French military uniform and was looking around with binoculars.

   "Don't worry! Our people will take care of it!"

  Leon answered the subordinate's question without looking back. As an old spy, this kind of killing and silence is really not too simple.

  However, he must let these French soldiers die after returning to the barracks, preferably after performing the next mission.

   It's not that they dare not do it, but I hope that people will not easily link the deaths of these soldiers with this transportation mission.

   Only in this way can this secret be discovered later.

  As for the person who finally took the shot to silence him, it was the French officer Fang Lang had been looking for, the captain of the transport company and the commander of the company, Captain Gerard.

  When Fang Lang got the photo of Captain Gerrard, many doubts that he didn't understand were solved one after another.

  So Fang Lang directly removed all the original monitoring points, and only needed to keep an eye on Captain Gerald.

  This Captain Gerald is Leon's deepest hole card. Why does the main combat force not stay in a good position, and wants to take the initiative to transfer to the transport company to serve as the company commander.

  Why his guerrilla officers were frequently attacked, and finally let him, a young man, be called the guerrilla captain.

   If he, a French officer, injured Paul, a German, the French would not have any doubts if they didn't understand the situation.

  When Paul found out that the person monitoring him was not the French occupation army at all, he asked Gerard, the former French guerrilla captain, to track down the German resistance army.

   And overheard the news of the treasure, the French army could not find the abnormality at all.

   There are some doubts, and Fang Lang can think of countless explanations for him.

  For example, why do you follow this man named Leo? As a guerrilla leader behind the enemy, it is normal to recognize the former enemy.

   After tracking, they discovered the figure of the German resistance army that the French occupying forces had been looking for, and overheard that the other party was about to unearth a hidden treasure.

   Such information has reached the hands of the French army, and it is only natural that the French army only monitors but does not do anything.

  Since everyone is German and they are Paul's subordinates, why did Paul betray Major Robin who was a rebel?

   Thinking about Captain Gerald's identity as the commander of the transportation company, Fang Lang understood that the treasure that Paul exposed was simply a bait, a bait used to attract attention.

  Leo is obviously also his abandoned subordinate. When Gerrard followed Leo, Leo must have received a clear time to dig the treasure.

   This time will not be very long, Paul will not leave too much time for the French occupying forces to investigate.

   When Leo and the others set off to dig the treasure, the eyes of the whole Stuttgart will be attracted by the treasure, and Paul will take Gerard with the French's own transport company to transport away the real treasure.

   This is what Fang Lang thought of after discovering that Captain Gerrard was a German spy.

  Paul wanted to take these treasures as his own or realize them, so he could only ship them to Switzerland. Only Switzerland, a neutral country, would turn a blind eye to these treasures that clearly belonged to the Chinese heritage.

   Other surrounding countries may confiscate this property.

  So, Fang Lang concluded that even if Paul used the vehicles of the French transport company to transport, he would never transport these materials back to France.

  When Colonel Chatham's adjutant introduced to Fang Lang the safe route to Switzerland, Fang Lang knew that he didn't even have to keep an eye on Captain Gerrard.

   Therefore, Fang Lang began to let people only need to keep an eye on the French army transport convoy leaving from Stuttgart while the French Leo and the others were unearthing the treasure.

   And place personnel at several important nodes of this safety line for monitoring.

  So, after our Gestapo Mr. Leon escaped from the hospital through the golden cicada, we can no longer find anyone following him.

   Those who followed him had already been waiting in front of him for his arrival.

   This made Mr. Leon search with his eyes wide open all the way, but he didn't find anything unusual.

  The speed of water transportation is not fast. After a whole day of sailing, Mr. Leon's ship finally entered Basel, Switzerland along the Rhine River when it was just dark.

  Basel, Switzerland is located at the bend of the Rhine River and is a border city at the junction of Germany, France and Switzerland.

  After the ship entered Basel, Mr. Leon finally breathed a sigh of relief.

  Of course their ships did not enter the city of Basel, but continued along the upper reaches of the Rhine.

  Finally, it docked at a small private pier more than 20 kilometers away from the city of Basel.

  This small pier is very remote, and there are no lights in the night.

  Maybe it was already arranged, or maybe everyone was too tired after a day of sailing. After the ship docked, no one disembarked.

  What they didn't notice was that there was a late-returning fishing boat. When passing by them, more than a dozen black figures on the boat quietly dived into the icy river.

  There was also a dark shadow on the shore slowly touching the pier.

  Dangers often appear when you think it is safe to relax your vigilance, and Leon, the Gestapo, did not escape such a fate in the end.

   Diving in the water and fighting on board are fundamental subjects for the Marine Corps.

  So, except for a few undetectable muffled hums, the night quickly returned to calm.

   When the ship was on board and the lights were turned on again, Fang Lang boarded the ship from the pier unhurriedly.

   When he came to the cabin and saw three corpses on the ground, Fang Lang recognized the guy who called himself Paul at a glance.

   As for staying alive, and bragging to the other party about how he discovered his plan in a whirlwind way, and how he caught him, Fang Lang would not do it.

   After all, this is all the fun of the villain's street rush, and Fang Lang is not a villain, how could he have such boring thoughts!

  The most important thing is that he knows that villains often die because of talking too much. Wait, what other desperate means does the Gestapo have, not to mention hurting him, even hurting flowers and plants is not good!

  In short, Fang Lang would never admit that he spared his life.

   After confirming the identities of the people on the ground, Fang Lang stopped paying attention and turned to look at the warehouse.

   This is a diesel-powered cargo ship with at least 1,000 tons, which can be regarded as a relatively new type of cargo ship.

  The goods in the warehouse at this time are not small, and they are stuffed slowly.

  Fang Lang knew that if it was all gold, it would definitely not have such a large volume, so he went up to pick up a crowbar, opened one of the rectangular crates, and found that there were carefully wrapped oil paintings inside.

  Although Fang Lang is not familiar with Western oil painting art, he also understands that the paintings that can be collected by the German government as treasures are definitely not ordinary paintings.

   I glanced at it twice, and after confirming that I hadn't seen it, I stopped paying attention.

   Opened a few more large boxes and found sculptures, bronzes, and porcelain from his hometown. Fang Lang understood that the things were right.

   But he didn't see gold, which was a bit of Fang Lang's surprise.

   After turning around twice, I found that some small ammunition boxes were padded at the bottom of the cabin and used as ballast.

  Considering that there are so many fighters around, if you are dazzled by gold and your mind is deluded by money, it is not good to have any unrealistic ideas.

  So Fang Lang didn't open the ammunition box underneath to check.

   clapped his hands and said to everyone:

   "Okay, our operation this time can be regarded as a successful conclusion.

   Congratulations in advance to everyone, we will all be rich when we get back to Brazil. "

  Everyone let out a knowing smile.

  Everyone knows that their chief is not a stingy person. Since he told everyone that they got rich, it means that they can also share a lot of profits from this batch of goods.

   Fang Lang certainly can't be stingy with his brothers who followed him through life and death. The value of these works of art is not easy to estimate.

  He is going to take out 30% of the gold in the ammunition box and distribute it to those who participated in this operation.

   But don’t think that 30% is less. As the chief, I predicted in advance and found that this goal must be the big one.

  The most important thing is that after these guys made a lot of money, they all retired when they went back, and Fang Lang lost a lot.

   "Thanks, sir!"

  Looking at all the smiling soldiers.

   Fang Lang smiled and said:

   "Don't be too happy, everyone, before things are shipped to the insurance of the Bank of Brazil and locked up, there are still certain variables.

  If this shipment is discovered by other countries, we may have to work in vain.

  So, I want to remind everyone, don't tell anyone about tonight's actions, and don't tell anyone that you are about to get rich.

   As for how much you can share, we will not be able to tell you until we ship it back to Brazil for specific statistics.

  I plan to take out 30% of the gold and distribute it to everyone. Don't think too little. "

  Everyone heard that 30% was allocated to them, which made everyone start talking.

  Although it is not yet possible to confirm what 30% is, there are not many of them.

   After the assignment, each person must struggle for at least ten years.

   Most importantly, they didn't do anything, which made them all ecstatic.

   You said to Fang Lang and said to Fang Lang:

   "Thank you boss, the boss is generous."

  This is different from Japan. In Japan, the Japanese wrapped gold in copper to prevent people from discovering it. No one knew there was gold in it.

   I thought I just harvested some bronze vessels and copper rods, so I had no idea.

  However, this time everyone knows that this is a real treasure, so if Fang Lang doesn't offer some benefits, it will inevitably make the soldiers under him feel dissatisfied.
