Chapter 193 Treasure

Time returned to thirty-two hours before the sun had already set on the horizon, a bright moon hung high above the barren desert, and the exterior wall of the station was dyed with a layer of silver.

"Search carefully, the entrance to the basement is nearby." Jurgen took a German-style flashlight produced by Partri and carefully observed the stone-built ground full of sand and dust.

"Sir, there is something happening here." A soldier shouted.

"There is empty below." The soldier tapped his feet with his infantry shovel, and could clearly hear the empty echoes.

"Sweep the sand on it. Is it made of wood? Is it a door? No, it's just a cover." The German soldiers cleaned off the sand and soil covering the ground with all their hands and feet, and a wooden cover that could be seen that there were many years appeared in front of everyone.

"Go and two people to remove it, and the others should be safe." Jurgen hung the flashlight on his chest pocket, then took out his Ruger from the holster, pulled the bolt and loaded the bullet.

"Do you think there are people below?" How could a treasure hunting thing be missing Randolph? He pulled out his gun with excitement.

"This is the Middle East desert, where dozens of poisonous snakes live, and they like this dark and cold environment the most," Jurgen explained.

"Violent Snake?" Randolph quickly pushed the bullet and loaded it-

"So this is all arranged by Ibn Saudi." In a tent not far away, Captain Horn pointed to the post station and said: "He specially sent people to spread rumors that this land was cursed by the resentful spirits in order to keep people away from the post station. In order to prove the authenticity of the rumors, he even sent Ikhwan militias to intercept the caravans that had been stationed at the post station."

"Not only are there jewelry and property plundered by the rebels, Ibn Saudi Arabia also hid some of the gold reserved by the royal family here. These were obtained by plundering pagans during the Ikhwan movement. He told me personally that this is the largest secret treasure storage place in the royal family." Shahir had completely surrendered and completely turned to the invaders. He betrayed his king and family, and now there is no way out.

"The biggest one? Are you saying there are similar places?" Colonel Daogen stood in front of the map hanging in the tent with his hands behind his back. After passing an Arabic translator and explained, he turned his face slightly toward Fahill.

"I really don't know this very well, but Wahid, who is with me, should know that he is the confidant guard around Ibn Saudi and knows a lot of secrets of the royal family." The prince betrayed his companions without hesitation.

"Washid?" Daogen turned his head and looked at Horn.

"This Wahid is very stubborn and has not yet been able to pry his mouth open." Captain Horn reported.

"There is nothing in Jurgen?" Daogen was a little surprised.

"No, Major Jurgen is very confident to complete this challenge, and only needs to give him enough time," Horn replied.

"That's good, we have time now." Daogen nodded and said.

"The legion is advancing rapidly in the east. I believe that we will be able to take over these towns in the southeast tomorrow, and then we will become the rear." Daogen pointed on the map.

"Control this water source, we are equivalent to controlling this area of ​​about 70 square kilometers, which just cut off this east-west business road between the northern part of the Hanzhi Mountains and the Iraqi border." Daogen drew a line on the map.

"This place has become an important node, and the Legion Command has agreed to my request to establish a supply troop station here."

"I agree with you, General Qusiral made the right decision." Horn nodded in agreement.

"Now I'm waiting to see how many treasures I can dig out here." Daogen suddenly turned around and looked at Fashir.

"Col. Daogen, I can swear to the true God that all I tell is the truth." Fahill said with his hands spread out.

"I don't doubt what you said. What I am worried about now is whether Ibn Saudi will deceive you. You have said that the king is wary of you and he is worried that you will threaten his heirs." Daogen frowned.

"It shouldn't be. He could not have predicted the actions of your army. Just like when I first discovered other troops in the inn, I was also very surprised. You also saw that this place had been abandoned for a long time, and even the wild wolf would not stay here." Fahill replied: "He also brought me three hundred imperial guards, which is almost one-third of the troops. This shows that the king attaches great importance to this task. When your bank freezes all Saudi deposit accounts, the government's finances have already had problems. The soldiers' military pay and rations are very burdened. The British army also blocked the border and cut off Saudi food import channels.

Currently, the food stored in Riyadh is only enough for citizens to eat for 30 days. After reinforcements from various tribes gather, the capital's food shortage will become more serious.

Just before we set out, the king had already started to reward the ministers around him with frankincense and myrrh. Usually, he liked to use pounds or gold coins he had minted to reward the subjects who had made meritorious. At present, the king urgently needed a sum of funds to buy excess food and daily necessities from the tribe, and to pay the military pay of the soldiers. Since Ihwan was suppressed, no one would fight for the king for free again." Fahill spoke very quickly, and such a long sentence took a lot of time to translate.

"I understand." Daogen nodded slightly, then he turned his face and said to Horn: "Ibn Saudi Arabia has a financial problem, and this situation is very important."

"But why did Ibn Saudi Arabia send people here instead of treasures in other places? There should be one that is closer to Riyadh," Captain Horn asked.

"How do you know he hasn't sent anyone else, Captain?" Daogen asked with a smile.

"It is indeed as the colonel said, the king sent several other teams, including two cousins ​​who had the best relationship with me. As for why he chose this place, if what he told me was true, it means that the greatest wealth is buried here, and he needs a lot of money now, the more the better. The money was buried back then to deal with the current situation." After hearing the translation, Fahill quickly explained loudly.

"In this way, the logic can make sense." Daogen nodded.

"Prince Fashir, if the treasure can be excavated this time, the empire will never treat those who work with us unfairly. You can make any requests you have. We will try our best to meet your needs." The SS colonel said to the prince with a look of approval.

"I have no other requests. I just hope that you can overthrow Ibn Saudi's rule and destroy all his gangs, so that my family and I can be safe. I understand the king, he has a tough personality and will never let anyone who betrays him." Fahir's face showed a hint of frustration. Obviously, he knew very well what he would end up as a traitor.

"This is not a requirement. We came for this. You can rest assured that your wishes will be realized soon. However, you need to provide relevant clues at that time. We are not very familiar with the internal relationships of the kingdom. Someone needs to identify who are loyalists and who are just ordinary vassals." Daogen replied.

Randolph's shout suddenly came from the distance from the "Sir".

Daogen quickly turned his head and looked out, and saw that the SS major ran here happily under the reflection of the campfire.

"The entire basement is full of this kind of thing, it's like Alibaba's treasure in the story, sir." Running into the tent, Randolph showed off the golden necklace on his neck covered with various gems.

"Now this is the property of the empire, Randolph." Daogen took a deep breath and forced himself to suppress the urge to give Randolph a brain.

"I remember the discoverer could receive a portion as a bonus, Colonel, I need to go back and check the decree." Captain Horn asked for instructions.

"Remember, Captain Horn, we are not a civilian treasure hunting team, but a glorious German soldier." Dogan glared at Captain Horn.

"All treasures must be sealed on the spot, waiting for the superiors to send someone to organize and register. Don't make this expression. Randolph, you should know our head of state, so you don't have to worry about not getting a reward. Before that, immediately put the thing on your neck back in place, otherwise I will change another chain for you." Daogen pointed at Randolph's neck and shouted loudly.

ps: Chapter 2, thank you for your support.

Because I was disturbed by trivial matters, this chapter was written a bit slowly, but it was already late at night in the blink of an eye.
Chapter completed!
