In addition, the two sides also reached a currency swap agreement. In order to facilitate the exchange of commodities inside and outside the customs, Fengtian Bank reached a 3000 million currency exchange agreement with the Industrial and Commercial Bank and the Communications Bank.

This one was specially proposed by Wang Yongjiang. It seems ordinary, but the secret murderous intent is very surprising. Wang Yongjiang is planning to push the ticket to the whole of China and take the opportunity to control the finance.If one day, the merchants and people in the customs regard the tribute bills as a value-preserving thing like foreign currency, and their pockets are full of tribute bills, then the unification of the world will be a matter of course.There is no hindrance anymore.

Of course, if you want to achieve this goal, you must first ensure the strength of Fengpiao. In addition to economic development, there is another important foundation, that is, gold reserves. Only with enough gold in the box can you be able to make a big difference in the financial field. .

More than 400 tons of gold, more or less, Wang Yongjiang was also very happy after seeing these things.But right now it's a little troublesome.The pressure of the Japanese is right in front of our eyes, and it cannot but be worrying.

"Zhuoyan, if I had been more careful and got the gold back in a calm manner, maybe the trouble would have been a lot less!"

"More than 400 tons of things. However, the railway lines are all in the hands of the Japanese, and they are transported by animal power. They must be mobilized. There is no way to avoid it. In fact, the Japanese look down on the strength of the Fengjun. Unlucky, at most we can discuss the spoils agreement with us, how can we directly use force to snatch it like now!"

In fact, Kolchak's gold has become a puzzle in history.At that time, it should not be a mystery. The biggest possibility is that it was divided up by several powers. It is also a compensation for them, and these powers will withdraw from Russia willingly.Otherwise, a group of carnivores will be dispatched.If they didn't grab some meat, how could they let go so easily.

"Zhuoyan, I think we need to be more flexible in our methods. Don't just think about taking gold alone. If the United States, Britain, France and other countries coordinate with Japan to deal with us together, it will be troublesome."

Zhang Tinglan's eyes sparkled, and he said with a smile: "Do you want to sell some benefits to divide them, Mister?"

"That's right, I estimated that after the completion of the Jifeng Railway, the demand for railways in the three eastern provinces, Inner Mongolia, and Inner Mongolia will increase a lot. In five years, we spent 5000 million US dollars to purchase rail locomotives and other supporting equipment from the United States and Britain. In addition, another 2000 million yuan was used to purchase scrap steel and oil. After all, the Western powers value economic interests the most, and throwing out such a big cake can at least appease them.”

It is definitely not feasible to purchase important machinery and equipment from the big powers. We can only choose some things that Fengjun urgently needs, but they will not be too exciting. Zhang Tinglan is very satisfied with this proposal.

However, Feng Yongshuang on the side frowned and asked hesitantly: "Commander-in-chief, haven't you always emphasized independence, especially now that we have the ability to build the railway by ourselves, why do we still need to buy things from foreigners? Isn't this a prodigal? !"

When Zhang Tinglan heard this, he laughed loudly: "In the past, we were unable to build railways, and we were naturally stuck everywhere. Now that we have this ability, the situation is very different. When the big powers set prices, we must take our capabilities into consideration. If they want to make huge profits, or even control us, of course it won’t work. Once the bottom line is exceeded, we will use our own things. Therefore, the procurement becomes a win-win cooperation, let them earn a little money, and our construction speed also increases. Let’s improve, after all, our current production capacity is still relatively low, and can only meet the needs of two railways at most, and the railways we need to repair are more than this.”

In fact, what Zhang Tinglan was talking about is the benefits of the industrial system. With a complete system, no matter how poor the level is, there is also the cost of negotiating with the big powers. You can bargain, and you don’t have to be slaughtered blindly. This is why China can open to the outside world for 30 years Afterwards, the secret of rapid growth into the world's factory is all derived from the previous accumulation of valuable industrial systems.

Regardless of the backwardness of the previous technology, at least the problem of availability has been solved. The advanced machines purchased in the future can be put into use immediately without any hesitation.Other developing countries don't even have talents in this area, and even if they buy it back, they won't be able to use it at all, let alone break the world's industrial structure.

Today's Fengjun can be regarded as having a little family background, and can negotiate with the great powers on an equal footing, so he won't be taken advantage of.Zhang Tinglan calculated a total of 7000 million purchase orders, which are still very attractive to countries such as Britain and France that have just ended the war. They can solve the problem of insufficient production, and can also create a lot of employment, which will also help them quickly get out of the shadow of the war.

Throwing this piece of cake can be regarded as sharing the Tsar's treasure with everyone. It is a wonderful move to make them shut up and divide the great powers.

After hearing Zhang Tinglan's explanation, Feng Yongshuang suddenly realized, and said with a smile: "The commander-in-chief is very knowledgeable, really amazing!"

After the discussion, Wang Yongjiang personally commanded the military police to move the gold to a secret vault, and then he contacted the United States, Britain and France, and proposed a purchase plan to them.Immediately, the three countries became enthusiastic, as if they forgot about the gold issue, and directly communicated with Feng Jun to purchase.

Just when the alliance of great powers loosened, Qin Wei led the Feng army to chase to the territory of Russia. During this time, the wind and snow finally disappeared, and the sun was exposed, shining on the endless white snow. After launching, it looked extraordinarily bright Dazzling, you can see far away at once.

"Teacher, I saw many corpses of Japanese soldiers along the way." Zhang Henian reported to Qin Wei with a smile: "There are some people here who were injured and died of freezing, and there are others who were not injured at all and were directly starved by the cold." And those who died, it seems that most of the Japanese divisions have been damaged!"

after speaking.Suddenly Zhou Zijian urged the horse and ran over.Said to Qin Wei: "Master, the brothers found more than a dozen corpses at the bottom of a valley ahead, and they seemed to be left by Toranojiro Nishikawa."

Qin Wei had always regretted not capturing the Japanese division commander, but when he heard that he had died in the wilderness, he was overjoyed and rushed over with Zhou Zijian.

They soon reached a small valley surrounded by several discarded rifles.Command knife, water jug, lunch box, stuff like that.After walking dozens of steps inside, a leeward stone wall appeared.There were more than a dozen Japanese lying in disorder under the stone wall.

Qin Wei saw at a glance that among these people, there was a man whose head had been chopped off, with a saber stuck in his belly, and a large area of ​​blood was flowing in front of him, dyeing the snow red.

Holding the saber, Zhou Zijian picked up the head next to the corpse and brought it in front of Qin Wei. Through his distorted facial features, he could still see that this guy was about 50 or [-] years old. Looking at his pants, riding boots, and the saber beside him , It should be an officer, yes.

Zhang Henian also watched carefully from the side, and suddenly realized: "Mr., this is the so-called seppuku suicide. Little devils like to play this trick. I don't believe that they can wash away their sins by slicing their stomachs. wishful thinking."

"It should be right." Qin Wei also nodded and said: "When cleaning up the battlefield this time, no Japanese military flag was found. According to common sense, it should have been burned. The military flag was bestowed by the emperor himself. In the eyes of the Japanese, it is A complete holy object, once it is burned, it will be an eternal shame. The head of the division and the head of the brigade can't escape. I didn't find Xi Chuan's body. I thought the rumors were wrong. I didn't expect him to run here to die Lost!"

Nishikawa Torajiro actually intended to commit suicide on the spot, but he felt that it was a shame that the body fell into the hands of Feng Jun, so he escaped and chose such a quiet place to end his life.Other obstinate officers, also regarded as a great shame by this defeat, committed suicide together.

Originally, he should have fallen into the mouth of wild wolves like other Japanese who were frozen to death, and became a delicious meal for wild beasts.However, Feng Jun chased him too fast, and before the wild wolf had time to bite, the dirty corpse remained.

"Master, do you see that the legs of these two Japanese are gone, have they been eaten by wild beasts?" the guard said loudly, Qin Wei and Zhang Henian followed the prestige, and saw that the lower limbs of the two Japanese had all disappeared Yes, there is a Japanese man beside him who has lost his arms.

Zhang Henian took a few steps, and after looking at it, he shook his head: "There are no footprints of wild animals on the snow, and the wounds are so neat, it looks a bit like being cut by a knife, definitely not bitten by wild animals."

"Slashed with a knife?" Zhou Zijian also frowned: "After walking so far, I haven't seen a few living people. Who would be so cruel to the Japanese and want to chop up their corpses!"

Qin Wei suddenly sneered and said: "Of course they are themselves! These beasts have no food to go out of the snow field, they can only chop up their own corpses and escape by eating human flesh! This is also their punishment , Invading China will not end well.”

When it comes to cannibalism, many people present feel like vomiting. These Japanese are indeed perverted.However, seeing Xi Chuan's body, Feng Jun also put an end to his worries. The severe cold weather helped Feng Jun, freezing all the escaped Japanese to death, and giving the Japanese a taste of the feeling of being wiped out.

Qin Wei led the army and continued to hurry on the road. After walking for a full ten days, he finally arrived at Irkutsk. At this time, the city was completely in chaos.The original ruler Semyonov followed the Japanese invasion of Outer Mongolia, and his life and death were uncertain. Kolchak was also finished, and the Japanese disappeared.

The city has lost its basic order, there are rioters everywhere, and propagandists of the majority party appear from time to time. Just when the crowd was leaderless, Feng Jun's troops finally arrived.

Others see this place as a mess, but Feng Jun regards it as a complete treasure. After arriving, Qin Wei personally led his elite and galloped [-] kilometers westward to the temporary camp of White Russian immigrants. This camp is on Lake Baikal. lakeside.

A total of 30 to [-] people gathered here. The cold weather had exhausted the last energy of these people. Sophia was also looking forward to it every day, waiting for the rescue. Finally, a galloping horse appeared on the horizon in the distance. Sophia And the people around her burst into tears in an instant.

Chapter 534 The Great Harvest of Mechanics

"Mr. Wang, the people don't believe that China will send power to save them. Many people propose to cross the frozen Lake Baikal and go to the Far East. What should I do?"

"No matter what to do, I just can't agree!" Wang Tieshan said firmly: "Sophia, Lake Baikal is very wide and flat, there is no shelter at all, the wind and snow can blow over unscrupulously, and people will freeze overnight. On the ice surface Walking up is very difficult, do you think a group of old, weak, sick and disabled can walk Lake Baikal?"

Sophia also frowned, and Wang Tieshan had repeatedly told her this truth, but those White Russians did not obey the princess' orders, and Sophia could do too little with the princess' prestige alone.

At this time, more than a dozen priests and nuns suddenly found Sophia, and one of the oldest people said: "Dear Princess, we can't wait here to die, just yesterday, the troops of the majority party attacked Our camp has caused more than [-] casualties. If we continue to delay, we will have a dead end, so we must cross Lake Baikal as soon as possible. I think this is the will of God, and the Lord will guide us to walk through it victoriously.”

"Bah!" Wang Tieshan couldn't help cursing secretly, let alone God at this time, even Buddha can't help it.In the coldest winter, on the unsheltered lake, in just one night, everyone will turn into a pile of ice sculptures, and there will be no luck.There are many ways to die, and there is really no need to find the most painful one.

"Your Excellency, the Fengtian government has assured Her Royal Highness that Fengjun will take action from a humanitarian standpoint to provide you with shelter and safety."

"Huh, you heretic. Don't try to deceive me. The despicable Chinese will never help the Russians. They just want to kill everyone. We will never be fooled."

Despite being frozen for such a long time, the bishop is still hot-tempered, and his yelling is loud.Wang Tieshan immediately raised his brows. Fengjun really wanted to save these Russians, but they were useful people, not these monks who could only waste food. They wanted to die.I have no obligation to help them.

Wang Tie simply turned his head and didn't even look at them. Sophia frowned and said, "Honorable bishop, since you have followed the Lord's will and made your own decision, you can leave with the believers." !"

The bishop left Sophia's tent immediately.Immediately lead the monks in the team.There are also some diehard believers, a total of more than 3 people, who resolutely embarked on the road to the East.After these monks left, it was a huge shock to everyone, people's hearts became more impetuous, and some people were completely disappointed.Even ran away overnight.

Sophia was worried, the whole team had reached the point of disintegration, maybe three to five days, or even a day or two.This team can no longer be maintained.At this critical juncture, the Feng army finally arrived. When the cavalry team stepped on the thick snow, like a whirlwind, and blew over, everyone felt like they were reborn after the catastrophe.

These refugees moved their stiff limbs, got up from the ground in front of them, and cheered unceasingly. At this moment, Feng Jun became their God, an angel who could bring them out of disaster.

After Qin Wei arrived with his troops, he frowned when he saw these Russians. There were too many people. Even if more than 3 monks left, there were still more than 20 monks left, most of whom were They were the elderly, the weak, women and children, almost all of them had frostbite, and due to the long-term cold and hunger, their physical fitness had been severely reduced, and they were extremely weak. If urgent measures were not taken, these people might not be able to be brought back to China.

"Your Highness, in the spirit of great humanitarianism, we will do our best to ensure the safety of everyone, but the premise is that you must unconditionally obey our arrangements and obey our instructions."

Sophia was arranged by Feng Jun, of course she can absolutely obey, Qin Wei's words are for other Russians to hear.Before this, there was a deep gap between the two sides, and some conflicts could not be resolved in a short while.

These Russians also knew that they were in a difficult situation, and it was already at the critical point of life and death. They could only obey Feng Jun's proposal, and the last straw, whether it was useful or not, had to be grasped in their hands.

"Listen everyone, you should immediately register according to the instructions of the squadron. There are two main criteria for classification. The first is occupation, we need to know what you will do; the second is health status, judging what you can do now What, do you need special care? After classification, we will provide some life-saving food, and then take you to the warm territory of China to survive safely."

Qin Wei's words are high-sounding, but this is only a superficial reason. To figure out the occupation is to find suitable talents and determine the health status. In fact, it is to decide to abandon those people when necessary.Moreover, the division into categories still breaks up the group connections among the Russians, making them completely incapable of resisting.

It can be said that this is full of evil intentions, but these Russians can no longer think carefully, they are all attracted by the food, and the registration is completed happily.

For a team of 10,000+ people, it took more than half a day just to register, and finally the registration information was collected in Qin Wei's hands.Wang Tieshan has been in charge of Russia's intelligence work, and he has suffered a lot during this journey.The three toes on the left foot were all black and dead from the cold. The doctors accompanying the army could only deal with it briefly. After returning, they had to amputate the limbs.
