They still have more land waiting to be recovered and unified, and it is not worth expanding and internationalizing the war.

During that tense siege period, there was great unrest.

Countless people thought of fleeing abroad, and they did not hesitate to sell their properties and houses for this purpose.

There are land and sea routes. At that time, the airspace was blocked by the NUSA army, so it failed.

And when the NUSA withdraws, the expressions of these people will be as wonderful as possible.

For this reason, the disputes and chaos left behind can still be seen until 2077.

It was a disaster of looting by fire, fishing in troubled waters, smog and chaos.

And what about Roger?

He sat down firmly in his seat.

A lot of money has recruited a bunch of fairly reliable mercenaries, most of whom are experienced in cooperation and know the basics.

Then he blocked all his own industries, stopped all entrusted businesses, and concentrated all movable resources on security and necessary material delivery.

Drinking water that can be stored for a long time, as well as weapons for self-defense, as long as they can keep people alive in their own homes, are extremely popular in the market.

And she also sold a batch of "life-saving packages"——

As long as you have enough money or hard currency that is both legal and illegal, you can buy a guarantee under her hands.

Keep them safe, at least while the city is at war.

The fragile environment made those competitors and enemies feel insecure.

No one would care about why a black boss died at this time.

People's attention is focused on themselves.

So when the news passed and people began to leave the shelter under the propaganda of the city government, and social order was restored, the gap between Rogge and other intermediaries suddenly became unreachable.

Roger also told him a little secret——

Because of the lax military discipline at that time and the fear of facing the new American army, many companies and government-controlled troops even had small-scale arms reselling.

During the war, the prices of many things will undergo drastic changes.

Things that seemed impossible to get at first will also be opened up.

Like a tactical bomber.

Hearing this, Luo Qi was stunned.

What is the concept of this thing?

If in 2023, the Atlantis team has such a tactical bomber.

Then not only do they not need dead people, but they also don't need to spend a lot of time organizing a firefight to induce chaos and panic to attract Arasaka's security forces.

A tactical atomic bomb will be accurately delivered to the middle of Arasaka Tower, 1200 feet above the ground.

Johnny wouldn't get caught either.

Morgan Blackhand and Adam Hammer didn't have such a fateful battle.

Everyone's fate will be changed.

In Rogge's words, no matter who rules the city, the underground world will never be absent.

She doesn't have to, and won't run away.

Instead, new companies and people in power may bring entirely new opportunities.

Even if the fifth corporate war started, and then some psycho like they used to detonate a nuclear bomb in the city center, it doesn't matter at all.

A nuclear bomb with a conventional equivalent is located at a sub-explosion center that is more than 500 meters away from the explosion center and less than 3000 meters away, and the basement that guarantees absolute safety is about 30 meters away.

In the case of Watson District, there is absolutely no value in becoming a bombing center.

Even the nearest company square is more than 3000 meters away from Watson District.

Since the airburst height of the nuclear bomb is generally chosen to be around 500 meters, the basement of the next life is actually very safe.

Not to mention if only a mini version of the tactical nuclear bomb is used.

Because the entire afterlife is built in the basement at the bottom of the building, it only needs to close the door, and basically you can't even eat a little radiation ash.

The resources that Rogge hoarded in the underground secret base can even allow them to survive for many years.

Compared with fleeing and pissing off with all his shoes gone, Rogge's calmness and ease really moved Luo Qi deeply.

In addition to the work of the police force, which is "although the job is suspended, you still have to go to work", Luo Qi has to think of ways to generate income for funds.

In the face of the price of an armored floating vehicle, which can easily cost tens of millions or hundreds of millions, the salary is not enough.

Luo Qi flipped through the PDA, wrote down the date mentioned in the message, and read it silently.

It's time to call up the brothers.

Chapter 420 Six "Japanese Chaebol"

Two days later.

"V, is it in place? It's just you."

Luo Qi asked in the channel.

He was holding a binoculars, lying on his stomach in a pile of sand, wearing a camouflage net.

Night has come.

On the horizon, the glow of the city has surpassed the moonlight, slightly lighting up half of the sky and the earth.

Occasionally, there are some dots of light source, flickering in this barren but wide land.

That is the device that is still working, or just the light is still working.

Although among the many industrial equipment, it may take several to have one in good condition, they are still scattered throughout the Badlands.

The huge solar array is just a few kilometers away, and you can almost see the large panels that can rotate towards the sun at any time when you look up.

Under the reflection of the moonlight, it looks a bit as dead as a tombstone.

The chemical plant in front of them was still operating with bright lights.

As a direct subsidiary of Arasaka Corporation, Arasaka Chemistry (Arasaka Chemistry) is spun off separately, and it is also a fairly large-scale company.

Unlike traditional chemical industry giants, such as Sushi Petroleum and Petro Petrochemical, Arasaka Chemical does not focus on the production, processing and refining of by-products of the petroleum industry.

This means that its size is destined to be unable to compare with these big guys.

However, Arasaka Chemical actually has considerable assets and strength.

But without checking the information, Luo Qi has no idea about these economic data.

Who would have thought that this energy battery factory, which smells sour upon breathing, and Tender-Love Baby Care Products belong to the same subsidiary company.

It can only be said that it is outrageous.

This not only made Luo Qi think of his expression when he saw the introduction of YAMAHA company——

It looks like a company that makes musical instruments, but in fact, it also produces bathtubs and music software part-time. It also runs a resort and sells golf and other sports equipment. It is also a giant engine company, and motorcycles are sold all over the world.

Although the scale is not as good as that of Arasaka, the fact that there are more than a hundred subsidiaries speaks a lot.

It’s just that in this world, Yamaha is not called Yamaha, but MOMIJI.

Speaking of ancient companies from before 1900, Mitsubishi is naturally indispensable.

Mitsubishi Corporation, or Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, is also an antique that also originated in the 19th century.

The founder is quite famous, Yataro Iwasaki.

These are all the famous "chaebol (ざいばつ)" in Japan.

Different from ordinary companies, the Japanese chaebols are monopoly capital groups formed by powerful wealthy businessmen before World War II as Japan entered a period of capital development after the Meiji Restoration and under the control of financial oligarchs. common name.

To put it simply, it is the maintenance of the chaebol, which relies more on family and blood.

What if the descendants do not have a few reliable and powerful descendants?

Very simple.

Bring in powerful people to become your own son-in-law, and change your surname from now on, this is not a solution.

It is through this model that the chaebols have almost monopolized all of Japan's economic lifelines.

Before World War II, there were mainly four chaebols (Mitsubishi, Mitsui, Sumitomo, Yasuda).

Whether it is the Imperial Japanese Army, which lived a good life, or the Japanese government at that time, they are all inseparable from the relationship between these four chaebols.

But after eating almost all the cakes, the situation we are facing is that the economy is highly centralized and the market activity has dropped sharply.

At that time, the savings in Japan were about 1200 billion yen, and the capital of the Mitsui family exceeded 300 billion yen. It is not an exaggeration to say that the chaebols are as rich as the enemy.

During World War II, on the basis of the original four chaebols, six new chaebols including Ayukawa, Asano, Furukawa, Okura, Nakajima, and Nomura were added, collectively known as Japan's top ten chaebols.

If the war is won, the market and dividends brought will eliminate all these contradictions.

So at that time, both the military and the chaebol were single-minded or had to single-mindedly want to win this war of aggression against the outside world.

But the result is so realistic——

Their Emperor Showa, after being beaten up all over the world by countries all over the world, finally released "The Edict of the End of War" in Yuyin.

At that time, the young and energetic Saburo Arasaka was only a few centimeters away, and he completely pierced his stomach.

After the defeat of World War II, the United States believed that the chaebols were the potential internal cause of Japan's militarism.

"Japan has two things that are extremely disproportionate to its nationhood. One is the navy, and the other is the chaebol."

This is what Colonel Kramer, director of the Allied General Economic and Science Bureau, once said.

He came to Japan and found that just after the defeat, the Japanese couldn't eat enough to eat and their living standards were pitifully low, but they had the world's most advanced warships and wealthy chaebols.

So the "Monopoly Prohibition Law", "The Exclusion Law of the Plutocratic Family Dominance", and the "Excessive Concentration of Economic Power Exclusion Law" were introduced, and the major chaebols were disintegrated——

It's probably equivalent to standing in front of them, throwing a knife at them, and saying "you cut yourself".

How could this be accepted by the crazy chaebols before? This is simply a humiliation to the spirit of Japanese bushido!

So they simply cut themselves off.

This series of actions was personally led and executed by Mr. MacArthur, the new "wise and mighty" Japanese overlord.

MacArthur, who was born in a family of generals, a veteran of World War I, a five-star general of the army, and the commander-in-chief of the Allied Southwest Pacific battlefield.After occupying Japan, his life reached its peak, and his position and personal prestige also reached its peak. He was appointed by President Truman as the commander of the Allied Forces in Japan.

The actual person in power in Japan at that time was MacArthur.

I don't know what the chaebols thought at the time, but Luo Qi estimated that Saburo Arasaka was already mad.

This is simply another slap in the face, throwing the dignity of him and his country on the ground and trampling on it.

The "arrogant victor" attitude of the United States once made Japan think that the future of their nation stopped here.

However, the turning point of the Cold War and the subsequent Korean War gave the chaebol companies a chance to regroup.

On June 1950, 6, the Korean War broke out, and MacArthur was appointed commander-in-chief of the coalition forces.

MacArthur, who was full of confidence before the war, once said——

"Let me fight this battle, and it will be over in two weeks. At the end of December, all our soldiers will return to the United States for Christmas."

Such a sentence sounded like she could not wait for the goddess of fate to personally backhand a flag that was slapped on her face by a big dick, and the car overturned without any surprise.

MacArthur, who underestimated the enemy, was beaten up by Mr. Peng.

No, it was several meals.

However, limited by economic strength and technological level, it was an absolutely difficult battle.

Every day is blood and tears.

In the end, Truman, then President of the United States, was worried that MacArthur would turn the local war into a full-scale war, so in the early morning of April 4 local time, he held a press conference and announced the appointment of Matthew Ridgway as the commander-in-chief of the US Far East Army and the United Nations Commander-in-Chief, MacArthur was formally dismissed from this post.

The events on the peninsula have drawn a relatively phased comma.

In contrast, Japan has 1 capital, 1 province, 2 prefectures and 43 counties.

In 1948, the disintegration of the general trading company was originally the most important event.Just when Mitsui & Co., Ltd. was split into 223 companies and Mitsubishi Corporation was about to be split into 139 companies, the attitude of the Allied Forces Command in Japan changed. Due to the outbreak of the Cold War, Japan’s strategic position improved and it became the Far East The regional containment bridgehead in the Soviet Union.
