Chapter 648: Spanish Gold (3)

Railway Station, Madrid, Spain.

The entire railway station has been under martial law, and the soldiers of the international column sent by the Soviet Union are guarding the railway station with loaded guns.

"Quick, quick!" They shouted loudly, and the car stopped on the platform, where soldiers sent by government forces were loading the wooden crates from the car onto the train.

This group of soldiers was a little strange about this, because usually the carrying work was done by workers. With them being used as porters, it seems that these boxes are quite important. These boxes are not big, but they are quite heavy, what are they?

Although the soldiers were curious, they knew the rules of the army. It's not theirs, they're just here to do the work.

From here, it can be seen that the Spanish government attaches great importance to this transportation, and does not allow ordinary people to take over any work at all, the whole process is in the hands of the military, and except for a few officers who know a small part of the situation, the average soldier does not even know what is in the box in his hand.

"Ouch." One of the soldiers suddenly crooked his feet, and the wooden box he was carrying on his shoulders fell down with a heavy blow, and one corner fell to the stone floor of the platform.

"Whoa!" The lid of the box was opened, and the goods inside were scattered like this, and in an instant, all the soldiers who were carrying them stopped.

Under the sun's rays, it is golden, and there are gold bars in it!

If you can have such one, you will be rich in this life.

"Bang!" At this moment, a crisp gunshot rang out.

A responsible officer took out his pistol and fired a shot into the sky, which was a warning.

"Keep working, don't stop!"

The Soviet officer's face was quite stern, and his silent warning was unusually obvious, and anyone who did not think crookedly would die.

The soldier, who had just dropped the chest, immediately bent down and hurriedly put all the gold back into the chest.

In the distance, a small two-story building.

A telescope, which had been set up long ago, was placed behind the window, shielded by a curtain, and now, the man behind the telescope, took his eyes off the telescope, and said to the other person: "Tell me at once, follow this train, and determine its destination." ”

His appearance is not good-looking, his height is only about 1.7 meters, and he can't be found in the crowd at all. However, he was one of the leaders of the reconnaissance mission, one of the best players in the Romanian intelligence service, Balekli.

Born in Arad, Transylvania, he was dissatisfied with his family's life in Austria-Hungary as a teenager, and when Romania was at war with Austria-Hungary, Arad personally acted as a guide to guide him. When Transylvania returned to Romania, Arad signed up for the army.

However, when it came to the selection process, his sharp mind and cool personality were valued by the intelligence services, and he joined the Romanian intelligence services. Over the years, he has been repeatedly credited in the intelligence service, and he is already a capable officer of the Romanian intelligence service, so he was sent to Spain by Holmonkmann to ensure that this operation does not go wrong.

After loading all the wooden boxes onto the train, everyone immediately stood in the distance, because the train had its own guard.

There were a total of ten carriages, and on each carriage, there were more than a dozen soldiers in the uniforms of the international column. In their hands, the guns they were holding were quite special, with a wooden butt and a magazine in front, but it became a round cake-shaped thing, and there were many holes in the front barrel.

Their eyes are quite sharp, and they look like the elite of a hundred battles.

The internal guard of the Soviets! They are now dressed in the costumes of an international column and have come to Madrid, not at all interested in participating in the battles here, they have only one task, to protect the safe transfer of these goods to the ship.

"Woo." The front of the steam locomotive, the whistle sounded, and the wheels of the locomotive slowly moved in the sound of whirring steam.

The train full of gold started moving.

In addition to the fighters in each carriage, the last one is a flatbed, and here there is a team of fighters with loaded guns, and on the outside of the flatbed, a pile of sandbags is piled up, and in the middle of the flatbed, a 25-mm anti-aircraft gun is erected.

Yes, it's anti-aircraft artillery. It was a temporary decision to add up, and they were quite concerned about this operation, and they tried to do their best in all aspects.

In the middle carriage, a man with a grim face smoked a cigarette silently.

"Report, the train has left the station, no abnormality has been found for the time being, and there are also soldiers of our international column along the way, who are responsible for guarding." A deputy said to him.

Alexander Lornov, a high-ranking official of the NKVD of the USSR, the head of the Spanish territory of the gold escort operation, did not dare to be careless at this time.

"Let our people keep an eye on them along the way, and the trains will change their routes from time to time." Alexander said.

As the person in charge, Lornov did not relax in the slightest about this transportation mission, because before coming, Minister Yezhov personally explained to him the importance of this mission. Since the minister has said the importance of this mission to the Soviet Union, Lornov, as a subordinate, will naturally not slack off in the slightest.

No one in charge of guarding is allowed to leave the train, and there must be no less than two escorts for 24 hours a day in the position of the locomotive that can be easily controlled.

Under such strict protection, the train sped all the way to its destination, Valencia.

……

"Woo." The train whistled and entered the station.

Inside the train, there was a bad smell. In the past two days, they have almost rounded half of Spain, and the bad thing is that they are almost falling apart in the past two days, and the strongest warriors will collapse after holding back in the train for a few days.

The good thing is that they finally transported the gold in this wagon safely to the port.

Pushing open the door of the train, the smell of a fresh sea breeze blew in, and everyone felt much more comfortable.

"Quick, quick, quick!" At this time, Lornov's eyes were all bloodshot. In the past few days, he has modified the route many times, and finally, without fail, the gold has been transported to the port.

Now, there is only one last thing left, to put this gold on the ship!

The train went directly to the port, and there was a distance of hundreds of meters between the train space in the port and the Soviet cargo ship Eugene moored at the dock.

That leaves one last thing.

Lornov cheered up, he knew that he must not let his guard down now, could he not have done that those guys would come here to rob them? More than five hundred tons of gold, a figure that has driven countless people crazy.

Moreover, the work of carrying is very slow.

Standing at the top of the dock, Lorenov personally supervised the handling, and this was the last task.

As long as the gold is loaded onto the cargo ship, Lornov's mission will be over.

At the same time, in order to prevent accidents, the cargo ship Eugene will definitely not act on its own, and the Soviet warship destroyer Fury has already arrived here at the same time, and when it comes to returning, it will provide protection along the way.

In fact, the size of this destroyer is a bit small, and if the news of the Eugene's gold transportation leaks out, it may attract more pretenders. However, this destroyer is on behalf of the Soviets, and an attack on this warship would mean a declaration of war on the Soviet Union.

Moreover, this is the only one, which will not attract the attention of other countries, and if a large number of warships are sent in a big way, then other countries will definitely be the first to be alert. On the contrary, it will make it impossible to ship gold, which is why the Soviet Union did not use the previous fleet of ships to transport weapons and equipment. It's not a good thing to be too big, it's too noticeable.

The most worrying thing is land, as long as he gets on the ship and leaves the port, Lornov can breathe a sigh of relief.

He didn't know that at this time, a few kilometers away from the port, someone was already observing the roof of a small building.

"And we guessed it right, the Soviets, sure enough, they were unloaded from here." Facing the sea breeze and carefully observing this side with a telescope, Holmemmann sat down, his face relaxed.

This time, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the operation, Holmemmann flew all the way over. After finally seeing this batch of gold on the ship, Holmonkman's heart was stable.

For this batch of gold, Romania almost went out in full force. Finally waiting for them in Valencia. Next, we need to hand over the information to the military, knowing that the military has sent a lot of ships for this operation.
