After hearing the political commissar's persuasion, Yang Zhen scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "Two old leaders, I am a little obsessed. Yes, no matter what decision the central government makes, we have to wait for the end of the current war.
Only when the goal is achieved can we consider the next step. If there is no foothold, how can we talk about the next step?"
"In this case, I will go back to the two old chiefs first. My coming this time has involved a lot of energy of the two old chiefs, and also delayed a lot of things to advance to the army headquarters. If it weren't for this time I
Come on, your command position may have been moved forward a long time ago."
Having said this, Yang Zhen stood up and said in a very sincere tone: "There are two old chiefs. My attitude just now was a bit anxious. The tone of my words may be a bit excessive. Please forgive me.
.When this battle becomes more stable, I will come to apologize to the two old leaders. I am always impulsive, and my temper is sometimes too bad. When my head gets hot, it will be dozens of degrees, and I don’t know how to turn when I talk.”
In response to Yang Zhen's sincere apology, the political commissar waved his hand with a smile and said: "You, I thought you were really young and mature, restrained, but now it seems that you are still a little impatient. We two old guys
Although he is not a prime minister, he still has the most basic belly capacity. Although his belly cannot be said to be able to hold a boat, it can at least swim."
"It's a good thing for young people to be motivated, so don't have any scruples in front of us, just say what you have to say. It's normal to have disagreements at work, but it's abnormal if you don't have them. Different positions mean different confidence.
The way you look at problems will be different.”
"Actually, the commander and I still want to talk to you more and hear your experiences over the years. You have fought well over the years. We don't have a comprehensive understanding of the enemy's situation just from the central government report.
So I want to talk to you more. But we also know that the war in Northern Manchuria and Western Manchuria is tense, and we can’t stay here for a long time, so we won’t keep you here.”
"But before you leave, shouldn't you fill up the temple of the five internal organs? It will take most of a day to get to Linxi from here. You haven't even taken a few sips of water when you get here. If you drive for such a long time, your stomach will be full.
They want to rebel. People are like iron, and food is like steel. Besides, if you come here, the commander and I can't even ignore the food."
"And your subordinates, they must eat something. If you don't eat for a long time, how can you protect you without the strength? You are the treasure of the whole army now. If you starve to death, how will we explain to the central government?
So we still need to have a meal. Since we are already here, it won’t take long.”
Hearing what the political commissar said, Yang Zhen really felt a little hungry. A full day and a half had passed since he rushed from Linxi Airport, and he really hadn't eaten anything. On the way here, he had only one thing in his head.
I was thinking about what I had discussed with the two old chiefs. After I got here, I had a series of meetings. Coupled with the attack just now, I was still wet behind the ears for such a long time.
Seeing that Yang Zhen did not refuse, the political commissar called his guard and asked him to notify the cooking team to prepare meals immediately. However, the current army was cash-strapped, and even the headquarters really had nothing to offer to entertain Yang Zhen.
He was the commander-in-chief of the Anti-Japanese Alliance. Although the large amount of flour and supplies shipped by Yang Jicai had partially alleviated the food shortage currently encountered by the advancing army in a short period of time, there was still little to prepare on hand.
Even if these three giants are here, the only thing the advancing army can bring out is a plate of steamed buns, a basin of millet porridge, two open cans, and a pile of pickles. The best thing they can bring out is,
It was just a plate of scrambled eggs. The amount was not large and could only slightly cover the bottom of the plate. Except for the pickles and the plate of scrambled eggs, they were all sent by the Anti-Lianhe Association.
Looking at the simple meals on the table, Yang Zhen suddenly remembered that he had brought a lot of nutritional supplements to the two veterans this time. He quickly called Li Mingbo and asked him to bring all the things. But for the two veterans
The old marshal wanted to hand over the things he brought to the cooking team to entertain him, but Yang Zhen firmly refused.
After they moved in, half the room was filled with canned fruits and blueberry jam. Before Yang Zhen set out for the marching army, he specially asked Mrs. Du Kaishan to make bacon, salted fish, spiced beef jerky, and Sichuan spices specially made according to Sichuan methods.
Dried roe deer meat, velvet antlers, and deer blood made in the same way. There are also bear bile for the commander's eye care, tiger bones for the political commissar, forest frog oil and white sugar.
As well as Harbin red sausage, fungus, milk powder, condensed milk, eggs, duck eggs, dried peppers, rice, peanuts and other things that are easy to store and carry, there is also a lot of white sugar used as a rare nutritional supplement for the wounded. There are even some items from
Some dried sea cucumbers seized in Harbin.
These things are extremely rare nutrients nowadays. Especially bear bile, which is a very good thing for the commander to maintain his eyes. These bear bile are specially ordered by Yang Zhen for the reconnaissance brigade directly under him to conduct wild survival training in the Lesser Khingan Mountains.
It was played by the recruit training team. The commander only had one eye left, and it was not very good after long-term fatigue. It was not difficult to get some bear bile at this time in the Northeast, so Yang Zhen ordered some.
The Northeast in this era is not a Northeast where wild animals have been almost eliminated. Wild animals are everywhere in the vast mountains of the Greater and Lesser Khingan Mountains. In the Wanda Mountains, Zhangguangcai Mountains and Xiaoxingan Mountains, there are groups of tigers and leopards, and the number of brown bears and black bears
There are so many of them, and red deer and sika deer are found wherever there are mountains.
In a mountain stream, the chirping of forest frogs is everywhere in summer. Get some bear bile, tiger bones, deer blood, deer antler, forest frog oil, especially wild ginseng, Codonopsis pilosula, gastrodia elata, astragalus, etc. for later generations.
It can be said that it is quite easy to find rare wild tonics and Chinese medicinal materials. The commander's eyes are not good, so it is not difficult to get some bear bile, but it has a very good health effect on the commander's remaining eyes.
The things Yang Zhen brought to the two old chiefs, not to mention the bear bile, tiger bones and other things, would be worth at least tens of thousands of dollars if taken to Chongqing. They were just moved in by Lee Myung-bak
Among the things, Yang Zhen was embarrassed to find some musk that in his impression should be used by women.
It’s just that he has developed a thick skin now, and the embarrassment is only for a short time. Yang Zhen said: “These things are specially given to the two old chiefs to supplement their body nutrition. Especially bacon, salted fish, and spiced beef jerky, I specially give them to them.
The Sichuanese among our military family members specially made it according to the Sichuan method. The two old leaders are both Sichuanese. After being away from home for so many years, it is rare to taste the flavor of their hometown. Before coming this time, I had someone specially make some.
I just don’t know if it’s authentic or not.”
"Rehe was originally the place where the Fourth World War was fought, and the land itself is barren and the people are poor. In addition, the Japanese and puppets have forced opium cultivation in recent years, which has made them even poorer. I am afraid it will be difficult to get anything. Two old chiefs command the troops.
Fighting requires a lot of mental energy, so you need to supplement your nutrition. These things are specially prepared by me for the two old leaders."
"And considering the local situation in Rehe, in order to alleviate the current difficulties faced by the advancing army, I specially brought 300,000 counterfeit Manchu coins this time. However, these counterfeit Manchu coins were used by our intelligence department to
The templates, paper, and ink seized from the Harbin Manchukuo Mint were printed by the original workers themselves, and they were all intentionally aged."
"These counterfeit Manchu coins can be said to be counterfeit, but they cannot be said to be completely counterfeit. Although we printed them ourselves, we also used the original templates, inks and papers of the counterfeit Manchu coins. The only difference lies in our own coinage.
Factory, not just the Central Bank of Manchukuo."
"This batch of currency was originally used by us to fight the financial war with the Kwantung Army. Now considering the predicament of the advancing army, this money will be allocated to you as a priority. When necessary, it can alleviate the urgent needs of the advancing army. Don't worry.
, even if the Japanese technicians from the Central Bank of Manchukuo came, they would not be able to identify these currencies."
"Originally, we were planning to bring you our own printed Japanese currency, but considering that the currency circulating in the Japanese-occupied Northeast is still dominated by pseudo-Manchu currency. Therefore, after careful consideration, we decided to bring a batch of pseudo-Manchu currency.
This can be regarded as a win-win situation for us. Your actions in Jehol can not only solve your urgent needs to a certain extent, but also assist us in fighting the financial war with the Japanese and puppets on another battlefield."
"But two old chiefs, you must keep this matter strictly confidential. As long as you know it in your mind, don't mention it even to the closest staff around you. In addition, when spending these counterfeit coins, try to be as careful as possible.
Mix it with real money and spend it to avoid the appearance of too much currency in the same batch and arouse the suspicion of the Japanese and puppets."
Hearing Yang Zhen say that the counterfeit Manchukuo coins circulating in Rehe that were shipped to the advancing army were actually counterfeit coins printed by them themselves, the political commissar who was looking at what Yang Zhen was bringing frowned slightly. As a work-study student studying in France
A top student who had studied in France, Belgium, and the Soviet Union, he didn't know what financial warfare was. He didn't know what the consequences would be if these counterfeit coins flowed into the Japanese-occupied areas.
Once these counterfeit coins printed by the Anti-Japanese Alliance flow into the Japanese-occupied areas, the Chinese people in the Japanese-occupied areas will ultimately suffer the losses. Because those who accept your counterfeit coins will be the Chinese. No matter whether you win this financial war or not,
Regardless of failure, it is the Chinese who are ultimately unlucky. No matter how genuine your counterfeit coins are, they are still fake after all, and they are not traceable.
Moreover, with the Japanese's consistent meticulous spirit, strict financial regulations, and tight control of the Manchukuo financial system, they will never be aware of the sudden increase in the amount of currency circulating in the market. Any health,
In a sound financial system, the amount of currency injected each year is strictly limited.
After the September 18th Incident, in order to occupy the Northeast for a long time, the Japanese not only straightened out the financial system in the Northeast, but also improved the modern financial system and controlled all the public and private banks in the Northeast. Even most of the foreign banks were not
To buy it is to try every means to close it down.
The currency issuance of the Puppet Manchukuo is all issued by the Puppet Manchukuo Central Bank, which is strictly controlled by it. Because it is pegged to the Japanese yen for equivalent exchange, the issuance amount is strictly controlled. Once the currency circulation greatly exceeds the amount of money issued,
With the current strength of the Japanese's control over the Japanese-occupied areas, there is absolutely no way this would go unnoticed.
Once these counterfeit coins are discovered, the Japanese only need to declare all currencies invalid and reissue new coins, which will probably lead to the bankruptcy of a large number of small traders and ordinary people who rely on salary. The most important thing is that once this method is used, the Japanese
If people spread the word, it would be a serious blow to the prestige of the entire Anti-Japanese Alliance in the Northeast.
