My client Li Yunlong

Chapter 160 A world where only traitors are injured!

"The convoy of the Chief of Staff of the First Army encountered a large-scale shelling outside the gate of the 27th Brigade barracks in Yangquan."

"Chief of Staff Yu Shai!"

When Yoshio Shinozuka received the news, he was stunned for a long time.

He thought that Tubalu would take action.

But the way he did it was a little too unexpected.

A large-scale shelling was carried out at the entrance of the Locust Army camp, using hundreds of artillery shells to kill the Chief of Staff of the First Army alive.

How dare you!

"How dare you!"

Shinozuka Yoshio gritted his teeth angrily.

What he imagined was that the Eighth Route Army would send lurking agents into Yangquan, approach his First Army Chief of Staff in civilian clothes with weapons, and then carry out the assassination.

He was also prepared.

Not only did they use the intelligence power of the First Army, but they even borrowed the power of Special High-Tech, preparing to use this opportunity to wipe out the underground intelligence power of the Eighth Route Army in Yangquan.

But the result...

"Using six artillery pieces, more than 300 rounds were fired in five minutes."

"General."

Yamamoto on the side said concludingly:

"It seems that the Eighth Route Army has a motive to kill the Chief of Staff of our First Army."

Speaking of this, Yamamoto was a little confused.

The situation of the First Army is quite special.

Although the size is as high as 70,000, the commander is an Imperial Lieutenant General.

But the main task is to maintain public security, so the chief of staff actually has relatively low power. The military rank is only that of colonel. Even if he has served, he may not be promoted to major general.

Such a chief of staff.

Is it worth it?

"Check it out for me."

Yoshio Shinozuka continued to gnash his teeth.

"Hi!"

Yamamoto Kazuki bowed his head in agreement.

···

Shimen.

The Japanese leader of the Hebei Provincial Government and the person in charge of economic warfare in the base area appointed by Shun Tada, Colonel Suzuki Fanji, received an order.

"Intensify the economic attack on the Eighth Route Army base areas?"

After the disastrous defeat of the 27th Division, Tada Jun recognized the reality.

In a short period of time, it will be almost impossible to use military force to solve the Tubal Road in the Taiyue Mountains.

The strength of the Eighth Route Army in the Taiyue Mountains has become so strong that it cannot be solved by one or two divisions. Sufficient troops must be mobilized at once to solve it with thunderous momentum.

But it was impossible to allow Tubal Road to develop its strength, so he focused on economic means.

after all,

The advantage of the Locust Army is not only military power, but also economic power.

"Yoshi!"

For this order, Suzuki Fanji was overjoyed.

It's his turn to show his strength and show off his skills.

"What are you going to do?"

Afterwards, Suzuki Fanji went to the North China Front headquarters to report the economic war plan to Tada Shun.

"So much supplies!"

Looking at the information in his hand, Suzuki Fanji first frowned.

He did not expect that after experiencing a large-scale raid by the 27th Division, although the Taiyue Mountain Area suffered huge losses and was almost completely destroyed, it could quickly raise a large amount of materials for reconstruction.

Even the food problem has been solved.

But soon, his brows widened and he said:

"Although it is not yet known how the Eighth Route Army transported large amounts of materials into the base area, it is obvious that the unloading location of these materials is limited to the Taiyue base area."

"It cannot fall directly into other base areas."

"This can be known from the aerial reconnaissance, which discovered the transport teams from Taiyue to Taihang and to the southern Hebei region."

"So, we can start with food."

"Although there is sufficient food in Tubal Road in the Taiyue Mountains, the recent drought in North China has reduced food production and there is a shortage of food everywhere."

"We can increase the price of food in the market."

"Causing food outflow from its base area."

"Furthermore, we will send troops to attack its food transportation channels, and we will only drive ordinary people to their base areas."

"As long as food prices cannot be stabilized, their new Hebei Nan currency cannot be stable."

Suzuki Fanji swears by it.

As long as Tubal Road cannot solve the transportation problem, the food crisis will be inevitable.

"Just go with your plan."

At this time, Tada Shun suddenly waved his hand, his tone a little frustrated.

"Hi."

"I will definitely complete my mission successfully."

Suzuki Hoji didn't know why the commander suddenly changed his attitude, so he quickly expressed his confidence.

"I believe."

Tada Shun still felt a little lethargic.

The plan is indeed a good plan.

Isn’t Tubal Road known as the people’s army?

Then drive a large number of ordinary people into their base areas and increase their food burden.

Then, through market means, the price of food in the Tubal Road base area increased, and it was very simple for the locust army to do this, even at almost no cost.

There are even benefits.

All we need to do is use military means or increase food search and suppression in the occupied areas.

After all, the area controlled by the Locust Army is one of the most prosperous areas in North China. As long as the food supply in these places increases, there will naturally be people who will continuously transport food from the territory of Tubal Road to the area occupied by the Locust Army.

In this way, the locust army can also collect a lot of food.

It can also cause food prices in the Tubal Road base to skyrocket!

It is also much easier for the military to destroy the transportation line of Tubal Road. It can concentrate the locust army and avoid dispersion, thereby avoiding the serious shortage of locust army forces.

But the problem is...

At the beginning of this year, the Locust Army fought on Tubal Road. A large group could march at will in the Taiyue base area, mopping up wherever they wanted, and building strongholds wherever they wanted.

A locust army of dozens of people can control a village with a population of thousands.

but now··

Every time he thinks of this, Jun Tada feels a little depressed and finds it difficult to accept it.

If this continues, when will the security issues in North China be solved and turned into a military base for the Imperial Locust Army?

···

Jinan base area.

Ze County

Base area.

"Is this the new generation of counterfeit currency from the Japanese?"

The person in charge of economic warfare in southern Hebei Province looked at a brand-new generation of southern Hebei currency in his hand, couldn't help but smile, and said:

"Hey, don't say it yet."

"It's well-made."

"If you don't identify it carefully, you really can't recognize it."

Who is he?

One of the designers of the new generation of Jinan coins knows almost all the anti-counterfeiting details, but he is still mistaken at first glance. You can imagine how similar the Japanese counterfeit coins are this time.

"really."

The comrades who attended the meeting were still worried:

“Fortunately, the second generation of Jinan coins has been rolled out on a large scale.”

Although the ink of the second-generation new Hebei Nan coins is not up to par, the paper is excellent and has a special texture. They have never seen similar paper, let alone domestic, even foreign countries.

It is very difficult to imitate.

There is no need to worry about Japanese imitation for a long time.

"Notify me."

"Let all branches strengthen the identification of first-generation Jinan coins and make sure to reduce the circulation of counterfeit coins."

One person immediately issued an order.

"I have a way that can effectively reduce the damage caused by these counterfeit coins to the people."

The person in charge of economic warfare suddenly said in a mysterious tone.

"any solution?"

People looked over one after another.

In fact, they are not afraid of the Japanese counterfeit money.

Although the products are very genuine, the branches are filled with comrades who know the first-generation Jinan coins very well and have strong experience in identifying counterfeit coins, so they will not cause much loss.

But it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish. It is easy for the devils to take advantage of them and receive counterfeit money.

In the end, it is the common people who suffer.

Of course, this is not what the base area wants to see, and the people should bear the price, so as long as it is a small exchange, even if it is counterfeit currency, each branch will try its best to exchange it, even if it will benefit the Japanese.

"We got some people to help."

The person in charge bit 'some people' very hard.

···

in the afternoon.

It is also Ze County.

In the Jia family compound.

"Has the loan been approved?"

The landlord, Old Man Jia, was a little nervous.

He has 5,000 acres of good irrigated land, and based on the loan limit of the Tuba Road base, he can borrow 3 million new Hebei Nan dollars, equivalent to 300,000 silver dollars.

Three hundred thousand silver dollars.

Are you so rich?

Every time he thinks of this, Old Man Jia feels extremely comfortable.

This is the wealth that his family has accumulated from generation to generation.

but.

not enough.

He wanted one million silver dollars.

Tubal Road sells 150,000 silver dollars every day. Why is it that the property he has accumulated over the years and generations is only 300,000 silver dollars!

It's only enough for Tuba Road for two days.

not enough,

Not enough.

Must earn more silver dollars.

This is also the reason why Mr. Jia still used all his land for a loan, even though he knew that the Eighth Route Army would be wary and suspicious of his motives.

He was a model of anti-Japanese resistance and provided a large amount of food to Tubal Road.

Tubalu shouldn't be so vigilant, right?

Old Man Jia would occasionally hesitate.

"Sir, it's passed."

"All passed."

"A total of three million new Hebei Nan coins."

"Moreover, the Eighth Route Army also said that we are model landowners in the anti-Japanese war, and specially gave us a discount, interest-free for one year."

The butler sounded excited.

"Interest-free for one year?"

Old Man Jia's tone was equally excited.

One year interest-free.

That is not to be repaid after one year, but only three million new Hebei Nan dollars.

Although Tubalu is currently stabilizing the currency value, can it stabilize the currency value these days?

Mr. Jia had been a businessman when he was young. He knew that not to mention the war years, even before the Japanese came in, the legal currency depreciated by one-tenth in one year.

This is a time of war, and banknotes cannot be stable.

Paper money is not silver dollars and has no value in itself.

After a year, it would be good to pay back one silver dollar for twenty Hebei Nan coins.

Wouldn't it be possible for him to double in one year?

"Not bad."

"This model of resisting Japan and fighting Japanese troops is a good one."

Old Man Jia was very satisfied.

"..."

The butler was speechless.

"besides."

"Because we are model representatives in fighting against the Japanese, the Eighth Route Army has opened a green channel for us, and we can exchange 200,000 new Hebei Nan coins into silver dollars every day."

"Two hundred thousand new Hebei Nan coins per day?"

A series of pictures suddenly flashed in Old Man Jia's eyes.

The pupils were clearly shaped like silver dollars.

More than a month has passed, and now the Eighth Route Army's fifteen banks have expanded to twenty.

Although the silver dollars put into the market every day are still only 150,000, the second-generation new Hebei Nan coins put into the market every day are three million.

In other words, there are a large number of New Hebei Nan coins circulating in the market.

This batch of new Hebei Nan coins cannot be exchanged for silver dollars because the Eighth Route Army does not open enough of them every day.

Give him an exchange quota of 200,000 new Hebei Nan coins every day, which is 20,000 silver dollars a day.

Due to the issuance of the second-generation Jinan coins, the issuance of more Jinan coins than silver dollars, and the restrictions on large-scale exchanges, many people in the black market are reselling the previous generation Jinan coins at low prices.

When the time comes, once he changes hands, he will earn a minimum profit of 10%, making a net profit of two thousand oceans a day!

This is a huge opportunity to make a fortune!

"Do you want to follow Tubal Road?"

At this moment, an idea appeared in Old Man Jia's mind.

But soon, he put this thought away.

The purpose of Tuba Road is to stabilize food prices so that everyone can eat.

But once food prices stabilize and everyone can eat, how can he still make money?

Isn't this going to cost him his life?

Only by following the locust army can you make big money. According to market fluctuations, you can regularly regulate food prices to create price differences, so you can stockpile grain, buy at low prices, and sell at high prices. Only then can you make big money.

So I decided not to cooperate with Tubal Road.

"However, the Eighth Route Army told us that there have been some counterfeit coins on the market recently, so we should be careful when exchanging them."

Old Man Jia, who was immersed in joy, did not pay attention to the butler's persuasion and waved his hand:

"I can still recognize counterfeit coins."

He is an old businessman who has traveled all over the world, but he still can't tell the authenticity of currency.

···

"How to spend all these counterfeit coins?"

at the same time.

Suzuki Hoji, who returned to Shimen, looked at the more than 20 million new Hebei Nan coins in his hand and frowned.

Tubal Road has strengthened its prevention of counterfeit currency and conducted a large-scale investigation of Tubal Road exchange meetings.

The success rate of small-scale exchanges he sent out was very low. Only about half of them were not discovered by Tubal. Although most of them were exchanged, the efficiency was too low.

At this rate, it would be too late.

In one month, at most one-third of the sales will be made.

There must be other ways.

"Colonel."

At this time, a Japanese man ran in and said to Suzuki Fanji:

"I got some news."

"He can help us get rid of these counterfeit coins."

"what news?"

Suzuki Fanji was delighted.

He was not willing to throw away the currency he had worked so hard to create.

"According to the news coming from the Tubal Road Jinan Base Area."

"They have recently opened up land loans. Many of the so-called model landowners are not only interest-free for one year, but some even give them a daily exchange quota of 200,000 Hebei Nan coins for silver dollars."

Report the latest news.

"Nani?!"

Upon hearing the news, Suzuki Fanji's pupils suddenly shrank.

As an economic expert, he immediately sensed a conspiracy from this news.

Do not,

It must be a conspiracy.

An upright conspiracy!

"Where's Sodus!"

Then, Suzuki Fanji suddenly realized.

He knew that Tubal Road was using these disloyal landlords to remove the currency that the Locust Army had put on the market.

Because of the poor people, Tubalu will exchange the currency even if they know it is counterfeit. But if they are businessmen or speculators, then they will buy it at half price, 20% off, or even confiscate it directly.

"Send me someone to contact them."

Suzuki Fanji smiled evilly.

No matter what Tubalu is doing, as long as it is beneficial to him.
