Quebec, Canada... An old gold researcher sympathetic to the Southern cause decided to bequeath all his gold, the fruit of several years of hard work, to the Southern government. That's something to worry the Northern Major State, who fears that the South could replenish itself enough in arms with all this money. Sergeant Chesterfield and Corporal Blutch are therefore "designated" to go to Quebec as soon as possible and find this old gold researcher before the Southerners get their hands on it. Arrived at Quebec, they meet Raynald, the "famous" wood racer. A chance for Sergeant Chesterfield who thinks that with such a man, they will soon have done to find their gold researcher. A chance? Not really.
