More than 600 tons of gold bars were unearthed in Northeast China. Japan: Don’t touch ours! What's going on?

These more than 600 tons of gold bars were dug out by a farmer in the Northeast. Because of the large amount of gold bars, this matter spread and became known to Japan, but Japan claimed that these gold bars were Own, in fact, these gold bars have an owner, that is Soviet Russia. 1. Japan claims that gold belongs to them. Why?

Russia and Japan are old enemies. There have been several military encounters in history, and the two countries still have many unclear old feuds. These more than 600 tons of gold bars are one of them, and now they have become an unsolved case. Russia and Japan are also very worried about these gold bars.

This batch of gold bars disappeared more than 80 years ago. They were originally the gold reserves of Tsarist Russia, but they mysteriously disappeared in the northeast of our country. The last person who handled them was the Japanese. Therefore, after this batch of gold came out, Japan immediately Claimed to be theirs. 2. How did more than 600 tons of gold fall into the hands of the Japanese?

In 1914, after the outbreak of World War I, the Russian army retreated steadily. Failure to have an advantage on the battlefield will inevitably lead to insecurity. Therefore, in 1915, the German army at that time almost stormed into the Russian capital Petrograd.

Therefore, in order to keep the green hills and not worry about running out of firewood, the country's gold reserves were transferred to the rear and more than 600 tons of gold were transported to Kazan. By 1918, it had been stored in Kazan for three years.

In 1918, Soviet Russia had been established, but the situation was still not stable. Therefore, the Treaty of Brest-Litovsk was signed with Germany in the same year, thus withdrawing from World War I.

However, soon after the founding of Russia, other countries intervened, and the reactionary forces within the country took advantage of this opportunity to occupy a large area of ??land. Occupying the territory were multiple armies of white bandits.

In the case of war, whichever side is stronger will have the advantage. This batch of gold in Kazan is very important, because once this batch of gold is obtained, it means that there is Countless material supplies.

So Petrov, an officer of the White Army at the time, commanded the army to attack Kazan and took away the gold. The Soviet Red Army, upon learning of this incident, frantically attacked Petrov's troops.

Petrov was helpless at the time and could only transfer the gold to his leader: Kolchak. This man is the boss of the White Bandit Army. He is powerful and has won the support of the West and Japan.

After Kolchak obtained the gold, he immediately transferred the gold to Omsk. This place is his lair. However, in those days, only supplies were the key, and having sufficient supplies actually represented victory. Therefore, the Red Army knew the importance of this batch of gold, and no matter how powerful Kolchak was, they would still take back the gold.

As a result, the Red Army at that time quickly rushed to the vicinity of Omsk, trying to regain the lost gold. At that time, Japan knew about the gold and sent people to negotiate with Kolchak: If the Japanese army protects the gold, it will help you repel the Red Army.

Because I knew the Japanese army had bad intentions, I decisively refused. In 1919, the Red Army captured Omsk, but only a few tons of gold were found, and the rest of the gold disappeared.

Later, after investigation, it was discovered that Kolchak and Petrov had fled to Irkutsk with the gold before Omsk was breached. However, what they did not expect was that in Iraq Irkutsk was captured alive by the local Red Army.

However, after a fierce battle, Petrov escaped with the gold. But they encountered misfortune again and were stopped by another white Cossack army on the way. Because this White Army was a local force with little strength, Petrov's strength was almost the same as his. In the end, the two parties conducted peace negotiations: 30 boxes of gold were given to the Cossacks, and the remaining 33 boxes of gold were given to Petrov. Luofu brought it to Chita.

At the beginning of 1920, Petrov was forced to have no retreat and could only seek the protection of the Japanese army in Manchuria in the northeast. So the gold was given to the Japanese. The Japanese saw only 33 chests of gold, and they were not satisfied. So I went to snatch back the 30 boxes of gold from the White Cossack Army.

In this way, all 63 boxes of gold were taken away by the Japanese. However, people's hearts are always dissatisfied. The Japanese troops stationed in Manchuria did not hand over the gold to the superiors. They wanted to monopolize the gold, so they found any excuse and perfunctoryly dealt with it.

3. How did the Japanese deal with this batch of gold?

This batch of gold was not transported to Japan and stayed in Northeast China. It was nominally divided up by the Japanese generals stationed in Manchuria, but the gold was still concentrated together and was not given to the generals.

One of the generals returned home with his own gold because of special needs. In order to prevent the secret of the gold from being leaked, he could only be allowed to return home with his share of gold.

After returning to China, this general became famous overnight with gold and became a powerful figure at the time. Later, it was revealed that he had embezzled gold. The Japanese troops stationed in Manchuria had no choice but to silence him quietly to prevent the gold from being leaked. This matter slowly passed.

This batch of gold became a hot potato in the hands of the Japanese troops stationed in Manchuria and could not be shipped back to the country, because once it was shipped back to the country, their private embezzlement of gold would be exposed and they would be severely punished.

So, they can only keep the gold in the Northeast. Later, Japan was defeated, and they returned to China. Before returning to China, they had to bury this batch of gold in Northeast my country, hoping to find a way to bring it back later, but we discovered it. It was really a steal. Mi, haha!
