The Nationalist government's indiscriminate issuance of paper money in 1944 also had something to do with the 100,000 U.S. troops stationed in China.

These U.S. troops are mainly stationed in Yunnan and include army aviation, airlift troops, ground support, and logistics units, as well as various military advisers and military instructors. There are more than 3,400 U.S. military advisers and instructors sent to various units in China alone, and these consultants and instructors often have to be assigned a Chinese interpreter -- Mei Yiqi's son voluntarily dropped out of school and went to work as a translator for the U.S. military.

The salaries of the 100,000 US troops stationed in China are naturally paid by the United States, but China needs to solve the problem of food and logistics.

During the Chinese New Year this year, He Yingqin sent a telegram to Long Yun, which roughly meant: The US military wants to eat beef, and Yunnan should do its best to satisfy it.

Long Yun was not in the mood for the New Year at all, and immediately sent a telegram back: The ploughing cattle in Yunnan have been eaten by the US army, and now they must go to Guizhou to buy them, and it is difficult for you to fulfill this request.

According to the statistics of Young, the US financial adviser to China, the expenses of one US military stationed in China at that time were equivalent to the expenses of 500 Chinese soldiers. Then who are the soldiers, all of them are uncles. By 1945, more than 53% of the fiat currency issued by the Nationalist Government that year was used for the expenses of the US military stationed in China.

Not counting military salaries, raising 100,000 US troops stationed in China is equivalent to raising 50 million Chinese soldiers......

In addition to this, China is also responsible for undertaking infrastructure projects. For example, when the U.S. military built an air base in Sichuan, China used 100,000 people at one time, which had an unimaginable impact on the fragile Chinese economy.

February 8, 1944, Lunar Lantern Festival.

Zhou Hexuan took the whole family into the city to watch the play, and there was a Lantern Festival celebration at the Cathay Pacific Theater tonight. The content is mainly Sichuan opera, supplemented by Sichuan opera, Cantonese opera, Huangmei opera and other dramas, and Meng Xiaodong is also responsible for singing the patriotic axis.

Everyone went ashore at Chaotianmen Wharf and saw some sporadic lanterns along the way.

In the later Chongqing Liberation Monument, the "spiritual fortress" has been blown up again, and a straight wooden pole has been erected in the crater to replace it.

"Dididi!"

A jeep sped past with its horn blared, and many citizens gathered around and pointed at the jeep.

In the car sat an American officer, who waved at pedestrians as he drove and whistled and laughed from time to time. In the passenger seat, there was a Chinese girl with wavy curly hair, wearing a uniform, and if she got out of the car, she could see stockings on her legs.

For this kind of woman, everyone calls her "jeep girl", which is no longer much different from a prostitute.

Jeep girls first appeared only in Kunming, and were often regular female translators. Gradually, jeep girls began to appear in Chongqing, and their identities quickly deteriorated - they could only say "hello" and "Goodbye", and they followed American officers all day long to pretend to be interpreters for a few pairs of stockings, a few bottles of Coke, a few cans of food, and some tips.

Most of these jeeps were dancers, and after a while, poor women of good families and vain schoolgirls would join them. While corrupting the social atmosphere, it also brings about various social contradictions, and the unexpected mixed-race children emerge in an endless stream.

What's more, these American soldiers drove around in jeeps, and when they saw a beautiful Chinese woman, they hugged the car, whether you want it or not, and calling the police afterwards has no effect.

In order to protect their female classmates, many universities in Chengdu and Chongqing have specially built one-meter-high stone pillars at the intersection of the off-campus to prevent jeeps from passing, which shows the arrogance of the US military in China.

After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, jeep girls quickly spread to Shanghai, Beiping, Wuhan, Xi'an, Chengdu and other cities.

American GIs like to go to bars and crash in jeeps when they get drunk. In Shanghai in the early days of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, it was extremely common for jeeps to hit and kill two or three people every day, and sometimes jeeps would collide with jeeps, and they were all very drunk.

Later, the impact was so bad that the Nationalist government had to issue an order to ban Chinese women from riding in US military jeeps.

The US troops stationed in China are like birds everywhere, and China has also been harmed by them, and the most sensational of them is the "Shen Chong incident."

Shen Chong was Lin Zexu's great-great-great-granddaughter, the great-granddaughter of Shen Baozhen, the governor of Liangjiang and minister of Nanyang, the granddaughter of the great translator Lin Shu, and the daughter of Shen Shao, former vice minister of the Ministry of Communications.

On Christmas Eve, Shen Chong went to watch the movie "National Supremacy" from his cousin's house, and met two drunken American soldiers after the show. They were young and beautiful with Shen Chong, and their lust was uplifted, and they forcibly dragged Shen Chong to a corner of Dongdan Square and took turns raping him three times.

Later, a passer-by found out about the situation and immediately came to stop it, but was violently beaten by two American soldiers.

The incident caused an uproar, and students across the country spontaneously staged demonstrations. Hu Shih contacted many parties to try to resolve the matter, and wanted to set up a Sino-US joint tribunal for trial. In the end, the two American soldiers were sentenced to 15 years in prison and 10 months in prison respectively by a military court.

Before Hu Shih could rejoice, the US Navy judge dismissed the verdict and reinstated the American soldier involved on the grounds of insufficient evidence.

When the news broke, anti-American sentiment among the Chinese people reached its peak. Because the "Shen Chong case" is not an isolated case, it is just a microcosm of the wanton rampage of US soldiers in China, and these guys who committed rape, assault, and hit people to death have never been brought to justice, and the common people have long suffered from it.

In order to calm the people's anger, the Nationalist Government actually chose to create rumors to divert the topic.

They first questioned Shen Chong's identity as a Peking University student, and asked Chen Xueping, the dean of Peking University and the head teacher of the pre-school class, to deliberately mislead the public, implying in ambiguous language that Shen Chong was not a girl of Peking University. The damn thing is that this Chen Xueping is still a distant relative of the victim Shen Chong!

People were furious and asked the government: "Isn't it Peking University students who were raped, so that the murderer can get away with it?" ”

Then, the Nationalist Government poured dirty water on the Communists, believing that the case was deliberately planned by the Communists with the intention of undermining Sino-US diplomatic relations. In fact, the party organization in Beiping was slow to react at that time, and it began to exert its efforts secretly for nearly a month after the accident, which was obviously not premeditated by the Communist Party.

During the civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, Chiang Lao wanted to defeat the Communist Party with the help of the United States. But the American GIs were so disgusting that the Chinese people suffered greatly, which made the Nationalist Government even more unpopular.

Almost all the American officers came to join in the fun of the Lantern Festival, and one jeep just passed, followed by two more quickly.

Three jeeps were parked on the side of the road, and there were no women in the two later cars. An American officer asked, "Alan, where did you get the woman next to you?" ”

"Pulled on the side of the road, two military cans and a pair of stockings, you can play all night." The officer named Allen said.

"So cheap?" The man was surprised.

Alan laughed: "The Chinese are very poor, two cans are enough." ”

The two lonely guys immediately got out of the car to look for targets, and soon found a few female students who came to see the play.

An American officer stopped the female students and asked, "Do you know English?" ”

"Of course."

"That's great. We are the US military stationed in China, helping China fight the Japanese. ”

"Thank you, American friends."

"I am not very familiar with Chongqing and I don't know Chinese, who wants to be a temporary translator for me tonight?" By the way, I'll pay you. ”

"I don't need to be paid, I'm happy to serve my American friends."

"That's great, let's go to the bar for a few drinks, I'll have a treat."

“……”

Several of the female students were at odds, and they were willing to help out of kindness, but two of them were reluctant to go to the bar. And they have already bought tickets for the show, and it will be wasted if they don't go to the play.

After a whispered discussion, only one girl was willing to accompany the American soldier to the bar, and the rest planned to continue to go to the theater.

The problem is that now there are two American officers who want to find a woman, and it is obviously not enough points. They looked at each other, and despite the objections of the female students, they grabbed one and dragged it to the jeep.

"What? Let go of me! ”

"Miss, I'll invite you to drink, and I can give you five cans."

"I don't want canned food, let go of your hands! Help me! ”
