Chapter 638: Business
At the signal of King Ning, Zhang Chi returned to the armored train with Wang Mazi and King Ning. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Ning Wang ......"
"Don't dare to be king!" King Ning replied with trepidation: "The deputy commander said that it belongs to Zai Ning or the second regiment commander!" β
The reason why King Ning said this is because after recovering the Northeast, Zhang Chi gave King Ning and his subordinates the name of an independent second regiment, and the head of the regiment was Zai Ning...... Although this is not a strange thing, it still sounds a little awkward to let a prince be the head of the regiment.
"Hmm!" Zhang Chi nodded and said, "I don't know if the second head of the regiment is ......."
Zhang Chi was a little confused, and his expression became a little unnatural.
But Zhang Chi soon found that he seemed to be a little mistaken.
"Commander, Deputy Commander!" King Ning took the tea handed over by the guards and said, "My subordinates are here this time to hope that the commander and deputy commander will transfer the Second Independent Regiment to Okinawa!" β
"Oh, why is that?" Zhang Chi and Wang Mazi couldn't help but glance at each other in surprise.
As we all know, King Ning has a lot of prestige and power in Changchun, how could he take the initiative to transfer to Okinawa, where he is not familiar with his life......
"Second Commander, you are ......"
"Deputy Commander!" King Ning shook his head and sighed: "The Japanese used the Manchus to establish the so-called Manchukuo in the northeast...... As long as anyone who understands knows the sinister intentions of the Japanese, many people do not want to be the lackeys of the Japanese. But these Manchus who are unwilling to cooperate with the Japanese are not human beings inside and out: the Japanese treat us as Chinese, the Manchus treat us as aliens, and the Han people treat us as traitors......"
Zhang Chi believed what King Ning said, because the Japanese wanted King Ning to serve as the commander of the Third Military Region of the Manchukuo Army several times, but they were all rejected by King Ning, and even the merchant group under King Ning's jurisdiction is now the Second Independent Regiment, and a considerable part of them are all kinds of people who were persecuted by the Japanese army and saved by King Ning...... This is also one of the reasons why King Ning has a considerable reputation in Changchun.
"So......" Zhang Chi asked rhetorically, "Now we have recovered the Northeast, haven't we?" There will be no Japanese, and at the same time, you will also revolt and become a member of our army, so you can be divided into Manchus and Han Chinese, and there is no need for the second regiment commander to be stationed in Okinawa, right? β
King Ning smiled and replied, "Although the deputy commander led the expeditionary force to take the northeast and drive out the Japanese with lightning speed, ...... Will the world be peaceful in the Northeast in the future? The subordinates thought that it was far from that time, and the subordinates and the independent second regiment led by them ...... Survive in the cracks all the time, and if you are not careful, you will be eaten by the enemy...... To tell you the truth, my subordinates are tired of living like this......"
"Second Commander!" Zhang Chi interrupted King Ning's words and said, "You should know that you are in a troubled world at this time, and there is no pure land in troubled times, not even Okinawa!" β
"My subordinates don't think so!" King Ning replied.
"What do you mean?" Wang Mazi looked at King Ning with cold eyes.
"Commander!" King Ning replied calmly: "The expeditionary force has a navy and air force that is enough to dominate the side, and it has the assistance and training of the US military to blockade Japan, once it has a firm foothold in Okinawa...... And who can shake the status of the expeditionary force? β
Zhang Chi couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, obviously this King Ning is not simple, he is in the northeast, he can clearly grasp the current situation and accurately guess the thoughts of Zhang Chi and others.
"So I hope to leave this land of right and wrong with my subordinates!" King Ning continued: "Or if you can get the protection of the commander and deputy commander!" β
Wang Mazi just wanted to say something, but was stopped by Zhang Chi.
"The second head of the regiment is a person who understands!" Zhang Chi said: "Since this is the case, then let's talk about it...... Why does the second regiment commander think that we will bring you to Okinawa? β
"The deputy commander is quick to talk! Joyfully! King Ning replied, "My subordinates thought the deputy commander would!" β
"Why?" Wang Mazi asked: "As you said, you are tired of this troubled world, that is to say, you are unwilling to fight...... What's in it for us to take you to Okinawa? β
"Money!" King Ning replied.
Wang Mazi laughed: "If you think you can buy us with money, then you are too naΓ―ve!" β
However, Zhang Chi didn't laugh, because the word King Ning was to the point.
If the expeditionary force only fights according to orders, then the expeditionary force is not short of money, and it can even be said that the expeditionary force is very rich...... The food and supplies distributed by the Yankees could not be eaten, and the military salaries were dozens or hundreds of times that of others, and many soldiers of the expeditionary force could already go home to become local tyrants at this time...... But in fact, the local tyrants are not very attractive, at this time in China, except for the Northeast, the Chongqing regime is still in a state of shortage of materials, even if you have money, you can't buy things!
However, if Zhang Chi wants to recruit talents, buy equipment, and introduce technology to develop industries in Okinawa, he must have money...... Roosevelt was not a fool, and he would never use American money to set up a possible strong enemy for himself.
Therefore, if you want to get rid of the shackles of the United States to some extent, you must first be economically independent, that is, you must have your own economic resources.
Seeing Zhang Chi's solemn face, he realized that his thoughts might be wrong, so he stopped his smile and looked at King Ning suspiciously.
"Commander!" King Ning said: "The 'money' I am talking about is not the bribery that the commander thinks!" β
"So what?" Wang Mazi asked.
"Commander!" King Ning replied, "Until then, his subordinates had been in charge of Manchukuo's trade and trade, including even with Japan itself!" β
"You mean you're doing business with the Japanese?!" Wang Mazi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Commander, calm your anger!" King Ning replied, "We don't have a choice, and we do...... I really don't want the people of Northeast China to be oppressed too much by Japanese businessmen! Compared to the Japanese merchants, the price we gave is fair in the fair! β
Wang Mazi couldn't help but "snort", obviously not believing King Ning's words.
"Second Commander!" Zhang Chi asked, "What do you mean ......by this?"
"I mean......" King Ning replied, "When we get to Okinawa, we can do business with the Japanese......"
"What?" Wang Mazi couldn't hold back any longer, he slapped the table and stood up: "What the hell are you, what kind of heart is this?" We are still preparing to blockade Japan, you guys are good, and you are still planning to do business with the Japanese? Isn't this a collaborator?! β
And Zhang Chi nodded slightly without speaking, what King Ning said was in line with Zhang Chi's meaning, because Japan must be in urgent need of various materials at this time under blockade, so these materials can be easily sold at a high price.
In other words, it is to block and beat it while squeezing it with materials until it is squeezed dry!
