Chapter 1360: The Last Effort!

"Found it? Great, let's go, let's go check it out! Admiral He Bingju got up from the bed at once and said excitedly!

"Commander, so far I have only found a secret warehouse, which should be one of the secret warehouses of the British royal family, and according to a rough estimate, there are only two hundred tons of gold there! The rest of the secret warehouses, there is no clue yet! Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng said!

"It's okay, find one is one! We still have plenty of time to go! "Admiral He Bingju doesn't care! Even if it is two hundred tons of gold, the approximate value is about 100 million Chinese dollars, which is a lot of wealth!

"By the way, did you do anything to the gold? If there is, punish it severely! Admiral He Bingju advised!

"Commander, our men have all restrained! However, when the secret warehouse was found, the British rushed up like crazy and tried to snatch the gold. In the end, the army carried out a crackdown, killing more than a hundred people, before those British calmed down! Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng said. Wealth is moving, not to mention the piles of gold that seem to be hills, which are enough to make people lose their minds. And the price to pay for this is their lives! These riches already belong to China, and those British still want to snatch these riches, so what's the difference between that and looking for death?

"Humph! As long as our soldiers don't make mistakes, as for those British, if they die, they die, it's no big deal! Admiral He Bingju said indifferently. He has never had a good impression of these Brits.

After getting dressed up, Admiral He Bingju and Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng rode to the secret warehouse where they were discovered. Here is a basement. The result was undoubtedly dug up. When the fire lights up the basement. Immediately, I saw the pile of neatly stacked gold nuggets inside. Each nugget, weighing fifty kilograms, filled almost the entire basement. There were still some blood stains on the ground, which should have been left after the suppression of those British, and they had not had time to wipe them off. However, it also gave those British people an even greater deterrent!

When Admiral He Bingju stood in front of these gold nuggets, the whole person was also very excited, and his eyes were full of golden things. Let his adrenaline secrete rapidly, and even he involuntarily had a trace of greed in his heart. However, he had strong willpower and quickly restrained this greed! These riches belong to the empire, and if anyone dares to touch them, it is completely looking for death!

"Lao Zhang, contact the navy and ask them to prepare their ships! Then, organize the troops. Ship the gold away overnight! Admiral He Bingju ordered! This gold is always not very safe to keep in Birmingham. Only when it was transported to the warship could he rest assured.

"Yes, Commander! The Navy is ready, and the six 'Hanshin-class' fast battleships have arrived in Liverpool, and they will be responsible for transporting the wealth back home! Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng said. The navy dispatched six advanced warships second only to the 'Tang-class' battleships to transport these riches, which shows the importance that the empire attaches to these riches. Of course, as long as this wealth is transported to the warship, other countries will not want to compete with China! The strength of the Chinese Navy is enough to tear any enemy with bad intentions to shreds!

"The journey from Birmingham to Liverpool should also be taken seriously!" Admiral He Bingju admonished! If it weren't for the heavy combat mission of the armored brigade, he would even have planned to use the armored brigade to be responsible for transporting the gold! However, in the face of the British counterattack, the armored brigade is the sharp knife in the hands of the 8th Army, and Admiral He Bingju still expects to rely on them to repel the British counterattack!

"Commander, two hundred tons of gold, at least a hundred trucks to load, plus spare trucks, we intend to use one hundred and twenty trucks to transport this gold away! In terms of escort, it should be enough to transfer a battalion from the guard brigade directly under the group army and a battalion from the cavalry brigade! After dawn, naval aviation will also send carrier-based aircraft to reinforce it! In this case, it should be able to ensure the safety of this batch of gold! Lieutenant General Zhang Ruifeng said. Birmingham is only 120 kilometres from Liverpool, and at the speed of a truck, a few hours is enough time if there are no accidents on the road! The transportation facilities in the UK are also very good, in addition to the well-developed rail network, the road network is also well-developed, suitable for trucks to transport!

Admiral He Bingju nodded, an infantry battalion plus a cavalry battalion, and the support of the navy's carrier-based aircraft in the sky, such an escort force is already very good! Now that a secret warehouse of the British royal family has been found, the rest must also be in Birmingham, which also gives Admiral He Bingju a lot of confidence! Then, his main focus will now be on dealing with the counterattack of the British. Only by repelling the British attack can China calmly transport this wealth away!

During the day of June 30, the squadron once again dug out two secret warehouses in Birmingham, one of which was stacked with 200 tons of gold, and the other warehouse was stored with diamonds, pearls and other treasures, and the total value of the two secret warehouses was at least 200 million Chinese dollars, which made the generals of the 8th Army very satisfied! I'm more motivated!

At this time, the British Army was not far from Birmingham! Admiral Hamilton led 6 corps of British troops and had arrived less than twenty kilometers from Liverpool! This is also because the railway line north of Northampton was blown up, otherwise they would have arrived in Birmingham long ago! The troops led by Admiral Hamilton this time are all elite units in the British Army, including the 1st Armored Division of the British Army, an armored unit that has just been formed by the British Army. Of course, real combat power has not been tested on the battlefield!

Together with the 100,000 men who had retreated from Birmingham, Admiral Hamilton had more than 400,000 men at his disposal. However, even so, Admiral Hamilton did not have much confidence. What he has to face is an elite group army of the Chinese Army. Britain's advantage was not on land, the army was already their disadvantage. Although it has a military advantage, but in other aspects, the British Army does not seem to have an advantage!

"General, we can't go any further, there are already Chinese positions ahead! Our cavalry and the Chinese cavalry fought for a short time, but our cavalry was no match for them! "A major general officer reported to Admiral Hamilton, who was Admiral Hamilton's temporary appointment of Chief of Staff, Major General Ronald!

"Order all departments, stationed on the spot, strengthen the anti-armor arrangement, pay attention to the attack of the Chinese armored forces!" Admiral Hamilton ordered! On the battlefield in France, the Anglo-French forces suffered great losses from the German armored forces. And the armored forces of the German army are divided from the Chinese armored forces, which makes him dare not underestimate it even more!

"Yes, General!" Major General Ronald nodded. In the past two decades, Britain, whether it is its proud navy or army, has suffered a lot at the hands of the Chinese, which has also made British generals have a natural fear of China. This time to reinforce Birmingham, even more so!

Looking at the back of Major General Ronald leaving, Admiral Hamilton frowned! The Chinese have already conquered Birmingham yesterday, and at this moment they must be searching for the secret warehouse of the royal family, and I don't know if the Chinese have succeeded! If the Chinese have already succeeded, then they will be late! As soon as he thought of this, Admiral Hamilton complained a little about the royal family, if it weren't for the royal family's transfer of wealth to Birmingham, there would be no such qiē! In his opinion, this is simply an enemy!

For this battle, Admiral Hamilton did not have much confidence! Even very pessimistic! But, as a soldier, he had to fight for the good of the British! In this war, Britain had already lost a lot, and in order to save the country, it even had to surrender to the Germans and grovel to its former enemies. In order to keep a hope of rising! However, the Chinese do not seem to want to give Britain such a chance, they are determined to completely remove the danger of Britain to China, so they want to weaken Britain at any cost. This time the wealth of the British royal family, the main target of the official Chinese attack! If the Chinese take away this wealth, it will be quite difficult for Britain to rise again! However, even though Admiral Hamilton knew that his hope was very small, he was still unwilling to give up and wanted to make a final effort! This may be the responsibility of a real British Army general!

The actions of the British ** team have always been under the control of the 8th Group Army of the Chinese Army. The 8th Cavalry Brigade of the 8th Army had already gone out to a place more than 30 kilometers away from Birmingham to stand on guard, and after discovering the traces of the British ** team, the 8th Cavalry Brigade began to harass the British army, retreated in a planned way, and at the same time reported the situation here to the army group headquarters!

At this moment in Birmingham, the 8th Army of the Chinese Army is still trying to search for the location of the remaining secret warehouses of the British royal family. However, the arrival of the British ** team made the main force of the 8th Army have to go to the front line to prepare for the attack of the British ** team. In Birmingham, only one infantry division and some units directly under the army group were left to continue the search. Fortunately, there are British people who act as free laborers, and the squadron only needs to supervise them and control the progress!

On July 1, the main forces of the 8th Army of the Chinese Army began a fierce battle with the British in the southern suburbs of Birmingham! (To be continued)
