Happy Tycoon

It's just that the date of storage of the materials recorded in this journal made Yang Jing somewhat suspicious.

The first batch of materials recorded in the journal was in May 1943. This date is almost the same as the date when the first letter signed by Terauchi Shouichi in the serial letter signed, that is to say, Terauchi Shouichi must have decided to do this at the time, so while launching a series of signatures, he directly divided part of the looted property and secretly transported it to this secret base.

In the tandem letter found in the sunken ship, the first guy who also initiated the tandem signature at the same time was Terauchi Shouichi. It also has a lot to do with the killing of the Americans, otherwise, if Yamamoto Isoliku did not die, it might not be the turn of Terauchi Shouichi to initiate this incident.

The death of Yamamoto Fifty-Six made Terauchi Shouichi aware of the tense situation. Of course, long before Yamamoto Fifty-Six died, the property looted from China and Southeast Asia had been transported back to Japan and separated into Tibet. Various secret bases in mainland Japan.

But the local area is the local area, and it is obviously unsafe to put all eggs in one basket. Perhaps it is because of this reason that Yamamoto Fifty-Six proposes to build a secret warehouse outside the local area to store the eggs collected from various places. property.

In all fairness, the property diversion plan proposed by Yamamoto Fifty-Six was a good plan, but it is a pity that the reason why the headquarters did not give a clear answer is probably directly related to Emperor Hirohito at the time.

Ever since the serial letter was discovered in the sunken Daiichi Shinmaru, Yang Jing has been taking time to study some Japanese materials during World War II these days.

Japan is a barren island country with no resources to use, so Japan will continue to wage wars again and again. They didn't launch wars just because they were idle, and they had no choice. Without resources, they couldn't develop, and if they couldn't develop, they would be bullied by others.

Huaxia, with its vast land and abundant resources, has always been the coveted object of the little devil, and it has always been ranked first. That's why after the Opium War, the little devils continued to target the weak China, and finally invaded China, starting China's iron-blooded but extremely tragic journey of resistance.

But no matter what, whether the little devil invaded China or Southeast Asia, it was all for huge resources. One of these resources is used to feed back itself. After all, if the Japanese want to develop rapidly and sustainably, they cannot do without these resources and wealth. But at the same time, while plundering these wealth and resources, the Japanese royal family did not forget to follow suit.

In other words, the resources and wealth that the Japanese plundered from East Asia, Southeast Asia, and even the Southwest Pacific were divided into two, and most of them were handed over to the Japanese high-level to develop Japan's economic and military power. A small part was intercepted by the Japanese imperial family.

Before World War II, the Japanese royal family was the real head of Japan. In the eyes of the Japanese, it is only natural for the royal family to plunder a large amount of wealth from all over the world by means of war.

So how much wealth did the Japanese imperial family rob in total during World War II and the invasion of China? This number is estimated to be unknown to outsiders except for the few people who presided over the matter at that time. But it is absolutely not an exaggeration to use a heavenly amount to describe the wealth that the Japanese royal family looted from Asian countries.

When Japan launched a full-scale war of aggression against China and the outbreak of the Pacific War, the iron hooves of the Japanese army quickly spread throughout Southeast Asia, and a secret agency named Golden Lily was established to plunder the property of Asian people. Emperor Hirohito appointed Prince Taketanomiya Tsunetoku, a member of the imperial family, as the head of the organization, and several other royal princes, such as Prince Hatohiko Asaka and Prince Kanin Miyazaihito, also participated in the task.

Yang Jing once read a report from some sources, saying that when the Japanese army captured Jinling, the capital of China at that time, in 1937, they not only massacred hundreds of thousands of Chinese people and committed heinous crimes, but the Japanese royal family also used the Golden Lily to Take part in the heist of the treasure yourself.

In Jinling, Japanese military police special operations teams searched everywhere, seized the property of the Chinese government, robbed rich merchants and other people of gold, jewelry, artwork and currency, and even knocked out the gold teeth inlaid on the corpses. At this stage alone, the Japanese looted at least 6,000 tons of gold.

These looted treasures are directly shipped from Shanghai to Japan, or transported by train or car to Northeast China for processing, and the rare metals are graded. After other jewelry is melted, recast into gold ingots of uniform size, and then Then shipped back to Japan. In addition, the Japanese military also sent Yoshio Kodama, the boss of the underworld society, to China to rob the ill-gotten gains of those underworld societies in China at that time. At first, Kodama packed so much gold and silver on the plane to Japan that the landing gear collapsed before takeoff. Later, he had to collect only the largest and highest quality rubies, sapphires and diamonds.

In addition to precious metals such as gold, Japan also looted cultural relics, books, copper and nickel coins and other property from China. Because the total value is too staggering, it cannot be estimated so far. After the wealth was transported to North Korea, it was shipped back to Japan and became the property of the Japanese royal family.

At the same time, the Japanese invaders also plundered a large amount of gold and silver treasures in Southeast Asia. In addition to the countries Japan invaded, the objects robbed by Japan also included individuals, churches, temples, banks, companies, and underground economic groups in the occupied areas. At the end of the 1940s, some people estimated that Japan's war booty in Southeast Asia was nearly 100 billion U.S. dollars, and there were many invaluable rare treasures, which caused immeasurable losses to the Asian people.

At that time, the behavior of the Japanese army in Southeast Asia was not much worse than that in China. People in Southeast Asia generally believed in Buddhism, so there were many temples in Southeast Asia at that time. At that time, the Japanese army just rushed into the temple, snatched valuables when they saw them, and even scraped off all the gold leaf from the Buddha.

It seems that the first batch of supplies recorded in this journal is probably the gold leaf scraped from a Buddha in a temple in Southeast Asia.

The Japanese also believed in Buddhism very much, but they even robbed temples at that time, which shows how crazy the Japanese were at that time!

How many of these looted properties are there? It's very simple. Just from the fact that the situation in the Pacific Ocean was becoming more and more tense and the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable to Japan, the crazy Japanese army began to desperately transport property to the mainland and even couldn't even finish it. It can be seen that the Japanese at that time How much wealth has been robbed in Southeast Asia!
