Chapter 3519 Golden Story

"Hey, Major, there's still one alive."

The U.S. troops wearing protective clothing who were piling up and burning corpses suddenly screamed.

What's so surprising about having one alive?

"Total annihilation" does not really mean total annihilation.

"Major, he is an officer."

When the voice came again, it attracted Major Garland's attention.

He and Crater looked at each other, and they were in the same mind.

After a while, the two people, who put on protective clothing, finally walked to the battlefield.

At a glance, he saw several American soldiers holding flamethrowers surrounding a Japanese soldier sitting on the ground.

The tattered military uniform could barely be identified as that of a lieutenant colonel.

Next to him, there was the body of a soldier, who had obviously been stabbed to death.

"Lieutenant Commander Ishida Wanichi?" Crater immediately thought of this person.

This is the information obtained from the Japanese prisoner.

When he heard someone calling his name, Ishida Wanyi raised his head blankly.

His eyes were filled with despair, with no trace of life in sight.

Crater quickly understood what happened here. He glanced at the corpse and said, "Did you kill him?"

Ishida Wanyi nodded mechanically.

"Then, you wanted to commit suicide." Crater looked at the knife again.

Ishida Wanyi answered with an eyebrow this time. On the contrary, there seemed to be a trace of shame in his eyes.

"What's going on?" Major Garland asked curiously.

"Have you ever heard of the spirit of Bushido?" Crater's tone was full of contempt: "This lieutenant colonel, when failure was a foregone conclusion, thought of the spirit of Bushido. He first killed the soldier, and then prepared to commit suicide.

But when the knife touched his skin, he flinched."

"Because he's scared?" Major Garland understood immediately.

"Yes, he is scared." Crater said coldly: "Killing and committing suicide are two completely different concepts. You can easily insert a sharp blade into someone else's heart, but you may not dare to insert it into your own body.

Cut it with a knife."

Major Garland smiled: "I agree."

Crete went on to say: "One more thing, if it had been two years, no, even a year ago, he might have had the courage."

Major Garland was a little surprised: "Why?"

Crater was silent for a moment and said: "The mood is different."

He didn't speak too carefully.

The difference in mood is that simple.

When a team is victorious on the battlefield, everyone from officers to soldiers is arrogant, such as these Japanese monkeys. They firmly believe that the so-called imperial army will win, and are full of arrogance and madness.

However, when they fell into the current situation, their mood naturally changed.

"So, what should he do?" Major Garland pointed at Wanyi Ishida, who looked like a puppet.

"He is dead." Crater dismissed him at all: "He is alive, which means he is already dead."

Then, he completely lost interest in what was going on here: "Major, I have some other things I want to talk to you about. We need to find a quiet place."

"certainly."

At this time, Major Garland had complete trust in this young American businessman.

Just as they turned to leave, a scream suddenly came from behind them, and that was the voice of Wanyi Ishida.

…

In Crater's office, he closed the door, poured the wine, handed a glass to Major Garland, and lit a cigar himself: "Major, what do you think of wealth?"

"wealth?"

"Yes, do you like money?"

"Of course, who doesn't like money in this world?" Major Garland smiled: "I always aspire to become a rich man. You may know some things. Troops like us stationed here always

I’ll make some money through the black market.”

"Yes." Crater felt the same way: "But who can blame you? War will end one day. When that day really comes, I think many of you will disarm and return to the field. War,

It has brought a lot of trauma to the soldiers. What will they do with their future life when they return home? Therefore, it is not a shameful thing to prepare more pensions for yourself."

"It's really a blessing to be understood." Major Garland said with emotion.

"Major, have you heard of some legends?" Crete suddenly changed the subject: "It is said that the Japanese army plundered a large amount of wealth in Southeast Asia, including gold, silver, and jewelry, and most of them were hidden in the Philippines. There is no chance.

Transport away.”

Major Garland was definitely not an idiot. He suddenly thought of something: "Mr. Crater, this is the first time I have heard of this legend. Do you know it?"

At present, almost no one, not even high-level officials in the United States, know about the treasures hidden by the Japanese army in the Philippines. Of course, it is impossible for a small major in Garland to have heard of it.

Crater said unhurriedly: "Yes, I have heard of it, and I also confirm that this legend is not a legend, but the most real one. Major, if you happen to find a batch of gold and have the opportunity

What would you do to make it your own? Or, would you report it to your superiors?”

This must be done.

Because according to the information Meng Shaoyuan had, a huge amount of gold was buried in San Romano.

And it is simply impossible to transport such a large amount of gold to the US military who has concealed it from the local area.

Only with the full assistance of local US military officers can the gold here be transported smoothly.

And how can we get U.S. military officers to fully assist?

Wealth and greed are the easiest things to impress someone.

Now, it's time for Major Garland to make a choice.

Of course he can choose to refuse.

If this is done, it is difficult to say what the fate of Major Garland will be.

Even whether he will disappear suddenly is unknown.

When Crater asked this question, he had already made the quickest possible plan.

Major Garland was unfortunately infected with malaria when he was annihilating the Japanese army led by Lieutenant Colonel Ishida Wanichi, and then...

Major Garland was silent, and after a while he finally said: "Assuming that there is really the gold you mentioned, and it can really become one's own, only a fool would report it to his superiors."

Then, he added another point: "These are all based on assumptions. Even if there is gold, how can it be hidden from so many people and how can it be transported out of the Philippines? This is the most important thing."

Major Garland passed the first test.

However, Crater would not believe it so easily: "Major, everything I said is just a hypothesis. Gold? I like it, I really like it. I think maybe we can really find gold!"
