What is the dream?
The dream is that the wife and children are hot on the kang, and the car is a small western-style house.
What is the dream?
Dream of eating in the bowl and looking at the pot?
Ha ha.........
Hearing such dialogue, Li Yunlong wanted to laugh, after all, before crossing over, he would see many talent shows and ask again: 'What is your dream!' ’
Being asked by Xiao Qiao, Li Yunlong was suddenly stunned, and then said with a faint smile: "Dream, you really asked me!" ”
"For me, the only thing I want to do now is to drive these little devils out of ~ our country!"
"What about after you get rid of the little devils? -”
Li Yunlong said slowly: "Maybe it's just to embark on the road of strength...... It's hard to say everything in the future, and now in the war era, as a soldier, maybe you will die on the battlefield tomorrow. ”
"For many people, being alive is the biggest dream!"
Xiao Qiao nodded very touchingly.
Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Shanghai was the first in the country and even the whole of Asia at that time, and Tokyo, Hong Kong, Singapore and so on in Japan at that time were not a little different from Shanghai. At that time, Shanghai was the only world financial center in Asia, and the world's major banks, insurance companies, etc. were located in Shanghai. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was the economic capital of the country at that time. At that time, the proportion of foreigners in Shanghai's population was also very high, and it was a veritable international metropolis.
Later, when the Anti-Japanese War broke out, the city was devastated and regressed, but as an adventurer's paradise, Shanghai is still the most prosperous place in the country.
Although the attack on Shanghai by the Iron Blood Brigade this time caused a lot of damage to Shanghai, after all, this is an inevitable process, but after such a long period of recovery, Shanghai has returned to calm and prosperity.
Li Yunlong and Xiao Qiao walked on the streets of Shanghai, the streets of Shanghai were still very prosperous at this time, and there were still neon lights all over the street from a distance, and the streets were bustling with people.
It's already past 10 o'clock in the evening, but there are still many people walking on the streets of this city, and it is very lively.
This is indeed a city that never sleeps.
Li Yunlong and Xiao Qiao walked along the Huangpu River in casual clothes, very comfortable, and could see the very gorgeous night scene by the Huangpu River.
It's a very rare time.
The Huangpu River is Shanghai's landmark river, flowing through downtown Shanghai and dividing the city into Puxi and Pudong. It is an important waterway in Shanghai and the last tributary of the Yangtze River before it flows into the East China Sea.
"The Huangpu River is really good!" Li Yunlong propped his hands on the fence by the river, looking at the situation of the Huangpu River, and was very emotional.
Little Joe nodded.
The Huangpu River is about 113 kilometers long and 300 to 770 meters wide. The Huangpu River begins at Dianshan Lake in Dianfeng, Zhujiajiao Town, Qingpu District, Shanghai, which receives much of the water from the Taihu Lake basin upstream.
"Do you know what's on the other side?" Li Yunlong suddenly asked.
Xiao Qiao said lightly: "Shanghai Concession, a place for foreigners to be powerful!" ”
"That's right, it's our eternal pain!" Li Yunlong said in a deep voice: "I am a big country in China, and it is very sad that this prosperous place is occupied by foreigners!" ”
The Shanghai Concession is a special place that began with the Qing government, and the Shanghai British Concession was established first. Since then, the American Concession and the French Concession have been established one after another. Later, the Public Concession and the French Concession were established. In the concession, foreigners invested in public utilities and set up schools and newspapers. The concession authorities were responsible for municipal construction and promulgated a series of administrative regulations for the management of the concessions.
It can be said that the concession is the equivalent of China!
At present, the most important areas in Shanghai are the public concession and the French concession.
Li Yunlong looked at the red-lit and bustling concession opposite, and said lightly: "The concession is the existence of one country, China, I, Li Yunlong, will not let such a region exist, I am ready to seize all the concessions!" ”
Xiao Qiao was stunned for a moment, and said randomly: "Brother Li, these concessions are all controlled by the great powers, and this public concession is controlled by two big countries, so it's very difficult to do!" ”
Shanghai Public Concession is the first concession that appeared in modern times, it is the earliest, the longest existence, the largest area, the most prosperous economy, the most perfect law, the largest management organization, the most fully developed concession, Shanghai at that time is second only to New York, London, is the third largest city in the world.
·········
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Japanese army used the northern and eastern areas of the public concession as bases for attacking the Chinese army, and replaced the concession patrol with marines, and the public concession was effectively divided into two parts, and the area north of Suzhou Creek became the sphere of influence controlled by the Japanese army. It is known as the "Shanghai Japanese Concession".
The main part of the public concession, the central area, the western area, and the western cross-border road construction area were defended by the armies of Ying, Mei, and Italy, respectively, and continued to remain neutral in the war for four years. The Chinese institutions located in the region continued to operate as usual, and took advantage of the war to become the most prosperous place.
........
"And then there's the French Concession!" Xiao Qiao frowned and said, "This concession is not small! ”
The Shanghai French Concession is one of the two concessions in Shanghai, and it occupies a large location, and it is also the earliest, largest and most prosperous of the four French concessions in modern times, the other three are the Tianjin French Concession, the Hankou French Concession and the Guangzhou French Concession.
"How can other countries occupy a prosperous land!" Li Yunlong said in a firm tone: "A country within a country is not allowed to appear on my territory!" ”
"Brigade commander, this is also the reason why you are trying to stabilize Shanghai now, do you want to do something to **?"
Li Yunlong nodded: "That's right!" ”
"But, brigade commander, this is the place of interest of the great powers of Europe and the United States.
