Many others apart from Corto Maltese are looking for this train: regular and irregular armies, revolutionaries and counterrevolutionaries that are mixed with a number of historical figures, especially Baron Roman Ungern-Sternberg, a Russian general who commands the Asian Cavalry Division and who proposes that Corto should fight alongside him to conquer the whole of Mongolia, a proposal that Corto rejects immediately. The scenarios of the adventure thus shift from China to the regions of Manchuria, Mongolia and Siberia in a period of time between 19. In the aftermath of the Russian Revolution and the First World War, Corto Maltese is engaged by the Red Lanterns, a Chinese secret society made up entirely of women, to find an armored train laden with gold that belonged to the last Russian Tsar Nicholas II.
