Hu Biao, who was in charge of the city of Fuzhou, focused more on preparing for the establishment of a colonial settlement. In order to transfer more victims and troops, Hu Biao also planned to open up another trade route suitable for horse gangs in a small border town not far from Fuzhou City.

As the factories in Shillong have entered the production period one after another, Shillong has also become a distribution center for many ores and raw materials. Many caravans of horses and caravans to and from the southwest transported ore and raw materials to Shillong, and exchanged them for corresponding finished products to sell in various places.

This kind of business model that does not go back and forth is also a lot of money for many caravans. The happiest thing for the caravan was that they could buy relatively cheap and easy-to-use weapons in Shillong, making it safer for them to walk around.

If someone thinks that it is too expensive to raise a group of guards, Shillong can also hire corresponding guards. At least for the caravans in the southwest at the moment, they all know that Shillong is a treasure land, a place where they can make a fortune.

Through the cooperation with these caravans, Hu Biao also arranged intelligence officers in a low-key and covert manner to collect road conditions and population conditions in various parts of the southwest. Caravans that have cooperated many times can even become members of the Shillong Chamber of Commerce and enjoy more benefits.

After receiving a telegram from Hu Biao, Zhu Chengzong, who was sitting in Xilong, quickly convened the treasurer of the Chamber of Commerce in the city to discuss the matter, and informed the Chamber of Commerce that it planned to open a commercial distribution center in the colony. And the members of the Chamber of Commerce can go there to set up a shop to buy.

For many businessmen in this day and age, they know very well how profitable foreign goods are. If they could go to the colonies and open shops, it would also mean that they could buy more foreign goods and dump them everywhere.

Hearing the news, the shopkeeper sent by the caravan of the Horse Gang soon said, "County Officer Zhu, is there any charter for this matter?" ”

"I'll have someone explain it to you in detail later. Just one thing, when you get there, you'll all need to form a corresponding caravan. Some goods may need to be transported to Haiphong City.

Later, we will also negotiate with the colonial government over there to repair the road leading to the two places. As for the defensive vigilance along the way, we will also send corresponding vigilance troops to clear out the bandits that may appear along the way.

Again, as long as you sincerely cooperate with us, then the Chamber of Commerce will do its best to open up more business routes for you. If you go there to do business, there will definitely be danger. But you should also know that the profits are not low! ”

As Zhu Chengzong finished telling about the border trade exchanges, a shopkeeper soon said: "County official Zhu, this matter is our share." Later, I sent a telegram to the head of the stall, asking him to send a team of 100 horses over quickly. ”

"Okay! When you go back, consider it more. If you are interested, please go to the county office to register later. When you enter the colony, we will also send a corresponding escort to escort you out of the customs.

All you need to do is cooperate along the way. The rest of the matter, our people over there, will do our best to solve it for you. At present, the little devil has cut off the trade route from Longzhou to Nanning, and it is a good opportunity for us to intervene! ”

Although Hu Biao could also form a corresponding caravan, he still felt that cooperating with these horse gangs in the southwest was undoubtedly the best choice. If you make money, you can earn it together for a long time. If you eat alone, the end result will not be too good.

Moreover, the products produced by the factories built on the Shillong side also need to be transported to all parts of the country through these caravans. Being a wholesaler actually makes a lot of money. What's more, the caravan also needs to pay commercial taxes when doing business in the city.

Uniting these caravans of different sizes, relying on the rear base of Shillong, Hu Biao can also get more support. Everyone knows that most of the people who can set up a caravan in the southwest have a certain amount of power and connections in the local area.

In these years, without any strength and connections, who dares to do business everywhere?

There are as many bandits as a cow alone, and it is possible to empty the caravan of people and money at any time. It is precisely because Hu Biao has always followed the rules of win-win cooperation that more and more caravans have taken the initiative to apply to become members of the Chamber of Commerce.

In Hu Biao's opinion, there is another advantage of attracting these caravans, that is, to hide the wolf army. If the troops are used to transport supplies, sooner or later people will find out the head of the wolf army. Caravans, on the other hand, can distract all parties.

Give up some profits, let the caravan be your partner, and hide yourself. When there is really a need, Hu Biao believes that these caravans will also choose to cooperate with Hu Biao sincerely for his interests and his own interests.

After receiving the telegram from Hu Biao, Dai Li, who was far away in the mountain city, also seemed extremely surprised. But there is one thing he knows very well, that is, this battle of Guinan, Lao Jiang is extremely dissatisfied. The reason is that the overseas material transportation channels have been disrupted.

If Hu Biao really has the ability to persuade the colonial government of Indochina to open another commercial port on the border, I believe that Lao Chiang will also be happy to see it. In this way, some urgently needed supplies can also be transported to the national control area through caravans.

After personally sending this encrypted telegram to Lao Jiang, Lao Jiang, who had read the telegram, knocked on the table with some frowns and said, "Yunong, how much useful information has the military commander collected on this kid's situation in the southwest?" ”

Facing Lao Jiang's inquiry, Dai Li smiled bitterly: "Report to the commission, at present, we only know that Xilong City, which has just emerged in the southwest, seems to be the territory controlled by General Flying Fox. Other than that, we have very little information we can find.

Back and forth, I sent no less than ten elite intelligence agents to try to infiltrate Shillong to learn more about it. As a result, it was very helpless that after those people entered Shillong, they would be expelled not long after.

There were even two intelligence agents who never came out alive after breaking into the military restricted area they had set. According to what I know, not only did the people we sent suffer, but even the little devils also planted a lot of spies over there. ”

"Being able to persuade the colonial government to open up a new commercial port shows that this kid's overseas channels should not be underestimated. Our people in Menia also provided a piece of news a while ago. His fiancée is now waiting to give birth in Jiazhou.

In addition, there was a company that explored several large oil fields in a row. With the oil fields explored, that company also made tens of millions. According to the feedback of the people we investigated, the boss behind this company should be this kid.

With such a large amount of money and close contacts with foreign forces, I really don't know what he wants to do? Li and Bai cooperated with them, and I think I will regret it sooner or later. This kid is very evil, and I always think it's better to control it. ”

Listening to what Lao Jiang said, Dai Li thought for a while and said, "Commission, although we don't have much control over General Flying Fox's affairs. But there is one point that the commission also needs to think twice. That is, if we make an enemy of it, I'm afraid that many people will be happy.

Although we can't control General Flying Fox and his men, General Flying Fox still has a good fight against him. If we refuse to cooperate with him, I am sure he will choose someone else to cooperate with him as well. On the southwest side, we have limited strength under our control! ”

As the person in charge of the military command, Dai Li naturally knew more about Hu Biao. In Dai Li's view, in addition to Hu Biao's lack of interest, Hu Biao still did his best in the matter of the Anti-Japanese War, and he took the initiative to participate in several battles.

If Lao Jiang is really ready to beat Hu Biao, he must also be prepared to completely turn his face with Hu Biao. In addition, Dai Li knew that Hu Biao had close cooperation with Yan'an and the Eighth Route Army, and pushing him to Yan'an was also extremely unfavorable to the national army.

Although Dai Li's words were somewhat unpleasant, Lao Jiang still sighed and said: "It stands to reason that I am benevolent enough to this kid, why does he still refuse my solicitation repeatedly?" Could it be that I am not worthy of his allegiance? ”

For such complaints, Dai Li didn't dare to say anything more. After Lao Jiang calmed down, he finally said: "You are responsible for this matter, and I instruct the Yunnan Province to quickly mobilize troops over there and strive to complete this matter as soon as possible."

In addition, send a telegram to the boy and ask him directly what his intentions are. I think that behind his trip to the southwest, there must be greater ambitions and intentions. If he really wants to plot the southwest, we must also prepare early! ”

Plot Southwest! Maybe it's also Lao Jiang's guess!

If Hu Biao heard these words, he might also feel a little surprised. It's just that Hu Biao never thought of the idea of attacking the national control area, or the southwest of his country. If you want to do it, then expand your territory!

Receiving the secret telegram from Dai Li, looking at Dai Li's vague reminder in the telegram, Hu Biao also said helplessly: "It seems that our commission has finally lost patience with me." My cooperation with the Gui family may really make him feel threatened.

In that case, let's contact our people in the border town and find a way to secretly control the border town. In addition, a telegram was sent to the Anhuashan base to raise the alert level. All spies who trespass or lurk in our defense areas without authorization will be arrested or expelled.

The guerrillas in the province of Sioux immediately activated the plan for alternate base areas. As soon as the situation changed, the troops were immediately transferred to an alternate base area. In case of provocation, it can also resolutely fight back. It's a big deal, I'll move all the troops from the Soviet Province here! ”

Based on what Hu Biao knew, he knew very well that he would not have any good fruit to eat if he was targeted by Lao Jiang. Earlier, he refused Lao Jiang's solicitation many times, which made Lao Jiang very unhappy. If he is unhappy, it will make many people unhappy.

Fortunately, Hu Biao is now in the southwest, and he has a small foundation. If he didn't know about the south, he would still be fighting in the next few years, and I am afraid that Hu Biao would also transfer his troops to this side one after another. But he thinks that the War of Resistance against Devils is still the most important!

Lao Jiang doesn't appreciate it, but in fact, Hu Biao doesn't care. What he really cared about was Lao Jiang's beating after he lost patience with him. Just in case, Hu Biao naturally needs to make some preparations in advance.

If Lao Jiang knew, he wanted to beat Hu Biao, so Hu Biao began to be wary of him, and he would probably be very depressed. In the final analysis, Hu Biao is an uncontrollable force. But in fact, Hu Biao's appearance was an accident in itself!
