Zhou Youfu originally wanted to make himself appear as clean as possible, so he didn't want to appear in the palace, but this saber aroused his interest. He decided to go and solve the mystery himself.

Before going to the palace, he ordered his combat troops to quickly clear the city of enemies and be ready to evacuate at any time. The enemy's 48th Brigade is almost here, and this is the information obtained by Chu Tingchang's aerial reconnaissance. Lao Zhou is not afraid of a lightly armed brigade with dissatisfied members, but there is no need to entangle with such a second-rate army. His understanding of tank warfare is that it is a long-distance attack, avoiding the real and imaginary, and attacking or defending to the death is not a suitable task for tank troops.

Fighting in the city was still going on sporadically, and Lao Zhou's guards were still searching the palace for antiques and gold. Of course, Zhou Youfu also knew the severity and did not dare to occupy the limited space of the combat vehicle to load these things, so he had ordered the sappers to dig a deep pit in the forest northwest of the city and bury the things there temporarily. He estimated that in a few days, the main force of Commander Chu would come, and it would not be too late to fetch it then. If you take it with you and be photographed by a reporter accompanying the army, it will be really ugly. Since becoming a senior general, he has finally begun to scruple about eating the word "appearance".

When he arrived at the palace, he entered through the main entrance, surrounded by officers. The first floor had been beaten to rubble, a tank was parked in the middle of the hall, and the tankmen were busy changing its tracks, which had been damaged by a Japanese suicide attack, and it was preparing to regain its operational capability.

Infantry is cleaning up dead bodies and removing items. Accompanied by the commander of the main attack battalion, he walked up the steps to the second floor. I didn't expect this place to look quaint and Asian on the outside, but European on the inside. The first thing that appeared in front of me was a grand piano, with broken chandeliers on the ground and various statues of people blown up in pieces.

The soldiers were moving up and down the stairs, including important documents from the Japanese army and objects that looked like precious metals.

Lao Zhou walked through the hall and was about to go up to the third floor to see the corpse, when he found that in the next room, the soldiers were moving out all kinds of golden plates, dishes, knives and forks.

He was also a man who had not seen much of the world, so he decided to go there and check it out first. So I went into the king's kitchen and found a long row of refrigerators lined up side by side. He walked over, opened the refrigerator door, and found all kinds of fish, meat, inside. In the aquarium next to it, all kinds of fish and shrimp are swimming in the water, and canned food is piled everywhere. He walked around a row of stoves, a smell of fragrance came to his nose, and a large soup pot in front of him was probably boiling soup, and was hit by * a few holes, and the fragrance came from there. He lifted the lid, and a red-shelled lobster was lying inside.

"My day, such a big shrimp, this is caught in a big river."

"Report to the division commander, this is a lobster. nautical. ”

"I really know how to live, the emperor here must be a foodie. Move away everything you can, treat the brothers, and take away all the foreign wine, fuck, why don't you have liquor? ”

"The king of the people studied in France, and he loves to drink wine."

"What is delicious if you don't have a few sour, where is Fenjiu and Wuliangye delicious."

After visiting the king's kitchen and wine storehouse, we finally reached the third floor, where the resistance of the Japanese at that time collapsed with the breach of the headquarters on the third floor. Due to the suddenness of Zhou Youfu's troops, the enemy did not have time to deploy defenses, and even the arsenal did not have time to open and distribute weapons to non-combatants, so although the personnel of the Japanese command had the intention of dying, they also lacked weapons if they wanted to die together. In the final battle, the officers and men of the 202nd Division, armed with automatic weapons, showed an advantage. When they went up to the third floor. The Japanese could only form a circle of seven or eight people, share a * suicide, or jump from the third floor, which is not too high.

The third floor is a mess, there are not many traces of battle, but the ground is covered with stumps and broken arms, which were caused by the Japanese army when they were desperate and committed mass suicide.

"Why are there so many big Sazhong Sa?" Lao Zhou was still wondering, "It's not like the brigade department." ”

"Division commander, it is decided here that it is not the brigade headquarters, it must be the division headquarters. I am looking for the Great Seal of Customs, and it must be a great achievement to find it. ”

"Go find it."

The group reached the highest-ranking corpses. Among them, there were several lieutenant generals, which made Lao Zhou excited, he knew that there was not even a division headquarters here, and there was only one lieutenant general in the headquarters of the Japanese division.

He went further inside and found the epaulettes of a deceased man, which turned out to be one more star than the lieutenant general, which was clearly a general.

He had never met a Japanese general (the Japanese marshal had the same epaulettes as the general), and it was clear that this time he was going to show a big face. He couldn't help but regret a little, let the troops rob the palace, and knew that he had eliminated a military headquarters (he didn't dare to think that it was the Provisional Command of the Southern Army), and he should let American and British reporters take pictures, but now it is obviously inappropriate to do this.

"Or else?" His eyes rolled and he thought of a trick, "Otherwise, let the sappers blow up the palace again, so that you can get away with it and explain it as damage caused during the battle?" It's a pity that there aren't so many*, otherwise go to the French barracks and get some? ”

While he was pondering, the communications soldiers came and delivered a telegram from Chu Tingchang, which strictly ordered him not to damage the Cambodian royal palace and not to harm the royal family.

"Royal," he suddenly remembered, coming in and not seeing the king here, the foodie.

"Where's the king here?"

"The king's family is on the fourth floor, and we have sent someone to protect it." An officer reported.

"Let's go, let's see."

They came to the fourth floor of the palace. The king's family was trembling, waiting for fate. The Chinese army stormed the palace, used a lot*, and made holes in the walls of the palace, which really frightened the king, and he hid on the balcony on the fourth floor to see the Japanese in the city being wiped out, the French barracks on the outskirts of the city being shelled, and those tanks turning around in all directions, as if they were invincible in the world. Then a Chinese captain rushed to the fourth floor, shot his Japanese adviser with one shot, and then held a gun to his head for a long time before finally deciding not to pull the trigger. These are things that he has never experienced in his life. The king, of course, was a puppet of the French since he was a child, and was later used by the Japanese, but after all, no one ever pointed a gun at his head.

Subsequently, the Chinese army, as if they were nothing, went around and moved all kinds of items. The large chiming bell he bought from France, an old Japanese painting given by the Emperor of Japan...... All moved away.

Zhou Youfu walked towards the king, and when the king saw the sprouts, it was a big official, so he hurried over, and a palace steward stood on the side as an interpreter. Lao Zhou saluted him, and saw the king who pretended to be calm holding a nervous young girl, thinking that he was frightened of other people's daughters, and he was a little unbearable.

"Stop me?" He shouted, and all the soldiers around him stopped, "Who told you to take this thing?" Do you want military discipline? Leave them all behind. ”

Everyone looked at him in astonishment, they didn't expect the master to say such shameless words, and the order was clearly given by him.

"Let's go, go to France to find something that can be used, don't scare people here."

The head of the court, whispering in the king's ear, translated Zhou Youfu's words, and it was obvious that the king was down-to-earth with a smile on his face.

"Thanks to the Allies, liberating my country?" The king expressed his gratitude to Zhou Youfu through an interpreter, "As long as the items that are useful to your army, please take them as you like." ”

"In wartime, those who use guns and cannons scare your daughter."

Zhou Youfu originally wanted to be polite, but this inappropriate sentence scared the palace manager.

"This is Her Majesty the Queen, not Her Royal Highness the Princess." The steward reminded,

Zhou Youfu opened his mouth wide and looked surprised. After all, he was born in the urban lumpenproletariat, and his knowledge was limited, and he had seen a child daughter-in-law, but he had only completed his house when he was an adult, and he had never seen such a mess.

"Oh, I see, your emperor is him...... It's very blessed. Guard Company Commander, Company Commander Zhou ......"

"Yes!"

"Protect the King's family."

"Yes."

He led the men down the stairs in a hurry, back to the headquarters, and then found the French News Agency photographer in the city, and took him to the palace to photograph the dead body of Shouichi Terauchi. He didn't have a reporter with the army, and now he has to leave evidence, he knows that foreign news agencies are the most effective, and this is his major capital, which can allow him to have an absolute upper hand in Tao Mingzhang's competition.

Tokai, near the sunken Kasuga Maru. Japanese divers got to the side of the huge sloping hull with the help of propulsion equipment. This time they no longer tried to enter the interior of the ship through the breach in the cabin, which had been tried many times in the past two years, and had taken a lot of lives, but entering through that rift did not lead directly to the nuclear material they wanted, and there were too many obstacles in the way of progress.

Now they decided to play a different game, opening a hole directly in the side of the cabin where uranium-239 was loaded. This was unthinkable in the first two years, as divers could not carry bulky cutting equipment and the large amount of acetylene and fuel that would be consumed, but last year, with the introduction of submarine propulsion equipment from Italy, known as the "Pig Monkey", this possibility finally emerged.

Through several material conveyances, the cutting equipment required. Fuel, oxygen, have been stacked on the outside of the cabin. Several divers began to take turns cutting, each participating in the cutting for 20 minutes, and then withdrawing the submersible, and then returning to the Noh code through decompression. In other words, each person needs at least 8 hours to decompress every time they go back and forth, and the time that can really work is only 20 minutes, but this is the most efficient way that Eisaku Sato calculated.

It was able to use a two-side, four-seat hoisting bracket to send down divers continuously, but in the end, it could not achieve the full load that Sato expected. This is, of course, because the decompression time is so long. Intermittently, the cutting work has not been completed.

Steel plates of the 21st century, after all, are not easy to cut through with rudimentary underwater cutting techniques. After an afternoon of trying, only one corner was cut, but of course it proved that the cut itself worked.

Sato was in a hurry on the salvage boat like an ant on a hot pot, and he knew that staying at sea for more than a minute would be dangerous. The danger comes not only from the unknown Chinese submarine, but also from the US military. The U.S. military has already captured the Gilbert Islands, the Marshall Islands, Kwajalein Atoll, and is attacking Wake Island at the moment.
