"Chief of Staff, are you finally going to do something to Liu Guitang? We should have done this a long time ago, with him, our 155th Brigade not only had to defend against the Japanese army in Rehe, but also worried about Liu Guitang's sneak attack. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info" Zhang Tie said excitedly.

During this time, Zhang Tie spent a lot of brains for Liu Guitang's affairs, and the 155th station was in Longguan, and their main task was to house the Japanese army to raid Chahar from the direction of Longguan.

However, since Liu Guitang semi-openly defected to the Japanese, the pressure on 155 has increased a lot.

Liu Guitang's Chadong guerrilla detachment numbered more than 7,000 people, and he had participated in many large and small battles, and the Japanese had helped him train his troops, so the combat effectiveness of Liu Guitang's bandits was definitely stronger than that of ordinary bandits.

As long as Liu Guitang was in Chahar for a day, Zhang Tie had to guard against him, but the 155th Brigade was only a little over 6,000 people, and it would be very laborious to just monitor the Japanese army, and it would be difficult to allocate energy to deal with Liu Guitang's troops. So Zhang Tie had long wanted to do something to Liu Guitang.

"Liu Guitang, the scum of the Republic of China, should have been eliminated a long time ago, the Allied army fought so hard with Japan, and tens of thousands of people were killed and wounded. Less than half a year after the dissolution of the Allied Army, he hooked up with the Japanese, which is really unchangeable. ”

Lin Youzhi said in a firm tone, his attitude towards traitors and puppet soldiers is still a little different from Li Han, Li Han is a person of later generations, he will feel that the people in the Republic of China period lived too hard, and there were enough dead people, so he was more tolerant of some people who were forced to be puppet soldiers and traitors.

However, other generals in the security army who lived in the era of the Republic of China hated the traitors and puppet army very much, especially those like Liu Guitang who repeatedly rebelled.

Li Han saw Liu Guitang's small actions in his eyes, but he still said that if he wanted to do something to him, he had to have a valid reason.

As for Liu Guitang's troops, there were a large number of Japanese soldiers, and this is not a reason, as many warlords had a large number of foreign military advisers in their troops during the Republic of China.

When Zhang Zuolin was in power, there were many Japanese advisers in the Northeast Army, and even now the central government also has many German advisers, so Liu Guitang completely explained that these Japanese were the military advisers he invited to help him strengthen the combat effectiveness of his troops.

Although anyone with a discerning eye knows that this is a rhetoric, where is there a reason to ask Japanese advisers to train the army and then fight the Japanese. However, now that the Republic of China is weak, it is impossible for the Nanjing government to sin the Japanese at this time.

The reason why he chose to do it now is because Li Han already has a reason to do it.

Because of its barren land and limited production, Chahar has always been a poor province, and its fiscal revenue ranks among the bottom of dozens of provinces in the country every year.

After Li Han came, Chahar began to develop, but Li Han did not develop the government's affairs, and the security army under his command also developed stronger, and the control of the entire Chahar was very strict, except for the troops of the security army, no other army was allowed to interfere with local affairs.

Li Han's strength is of course a blessing for the security army and the Republic of Chahar, but for Liu Guitang, life is not easy, he has thousands of men and horses, but he can't scavenge a penny from the local area.

Half a year ago, he could still endure it, at that time, Chahar was a poor hanger, and there was nothing to rob, but now it is different, any small county town can earn hundreds of thousands of silver dollars every month, and Liu Guitang, who is used to grabbing what he sees, where can he endure the temptation of the pillar.

Moreover, after Li Han robbed the cannon he ordered last time, he cut off the salary of their Chadong detachment, which not only deepened Liu Guitang's resentment against Li Han, but also stimulated his idea of making money.

It is definitely not possible to rob the common people directly, and the tens of thousands of security troops will definitely directly suppress his troops, and Li Hanzheng is worried that he can't find an excuse to deal with himself.

However, Liu Guitang has been a bandit for decades, and he is very familiar with the way bandits make money, and the fastest way to get money is, of course, to rob it, but this way does not work now, so Liu Guitang remembered drug trafficking.

Speaking of drugs, opium ran through the entire Republic of China period, and the first batch of Sichuan army troops who went out of Sichuan to resist the Japanese were called 'double gun' soldiers because they carried opium-smoking smoking guns.

In the Republic of China, officials and nobles, down to the common people, were poisoned by opium, and even the young marshal Zhang Xueliang was obsessed with opium for a period of time.

The opium trade is a lucrative industry, and the opium trade in the country reaches tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of silver dollars every year, and the warlords in the provinces have even waged wars specifically for opium.

After Liu Guitang thought of selling opium, his heart could no longer calm down, Chahar was the most suitable for him to sell sub-opium at this time, because Li Han knew the harm of opium to people, so he specially issued a decree prohibiting opium trade, and even set up an anti-narcotics bureau for this purpose, a special department to crack down on drug smuggling.

However, drugs are not banned and banned, and even there are countless drug users in the current society, and drug dealers have arrested a batch after a batch, not to mention the period of the Republic of China, although the Nanjing government has promulgated various anti-smoking regulations.

But it doesn't really work. First of all, the Japanese would not listen to the orders of Chongqing; Second, the surviving warlords are also in defiance.

Huang Yanpei, a member of the National Political Participation Committee and deputy head of the Chuankang Construction Inspection Group, visited Yuexi County in Xikang Province to inspect "opium everywhere." Like Liu Wenhui and his ilk, once they really ban smoking, they will cut off their own financial resources, how can they carry out the "anti-Chiang" to the end?

But in any case, because of Li Han's toughness, the inflow of opium in Chahar Province has dropped to an alarming level, coupled with the crackdown by the Narcotics Control Bureau, the price of opium in the black market of Chahar Province is extremely high, and Liu Guitang dares to conclude that the speed of drug trafficking will even exceed the speed at which he directly robs money.

However, Liu Guitang himself was trapped in Chahar, and the source of opium was not guaranteed, so if he relied on smuggling to small drug dealers, the speed of money would be too slow, so Liu Guitang directly found the Japanese.

The Japanese also coveted Chahar's wealth, and Liu Guitang's plan was simply a joy from heaven for them, buying opium into Chahar could not only plunder Chahar's wealth, but those who smoked opium basically became invalid.

In fact, what the Japanese hope most is to buy opium into the army of the security army, so that the combat effectiveness of the security army will definitely drop significantly, and the difficulty for them to occupy Chahar in the future will also be greatly reduced.

Outside, Japan was responsible for supplying the goods, and inside, Liu Guitang, the commander of the Chadong guerrilla detachment, cooperated in trafficking, and soon shiny opium flowed into Chahar Province.

At first, Liu Guitang was worried that the action would be too big and attract Li Han's attention, but after several shipments in succession, Liu Guitang's courage became bigger, and he also found that no matter how many goods he had in his hands, he could sell them quickly, and even as soon as the goods arrived, a seller would come to the door.

In just half a month, he sold more than 300 boxes worth more than 1 million silver dollars, because the goods were provided by the Japanese, and the purchase price was extremely low, and Liu Guitang's net profit reached more than 600,000 oceans.

This kind of huge profit completely made Liu Guitang red-eyed, and he couldn't care about whether it would attract Li Han's attention, so he began to throw off his arms and devote himself to the cause of selling opium.

Liu Guitang began to exert all his strength, Li Han was a little unable to hold on, and Liu Guitang, who had been a bandit for decades, had accumulated a value of nearly six million silver dollars, although he lost six or seven hundred thousand silver dollars last time he bought artillery like Japan, plus the consumption of military salaries and training for these armies was all from him, and hundreds of thousands of silver dollars were spent.

Even so, he still had 500 silver dollars to play, and in order to destroy the market in Chahar, the Japanese gave Liu Guitang a lower purchase price than the ordinary market price, which led to Liu Guitang only spending 3 million silver dollars to buy opium worth 9 million yuan.

In order to prevent opium from entering the market and to recover his early investment, Li Han decided to do it.

From beginning to end, Liu Guitang's movements were under Li Han's control, and the opium in his hand was also bought by the businessmen arranged by Li Han, which is why Liu Guitang's opium was bought as soon as he got it.

In fact, Li Han was already in a bit of a hurry, every time Liu Guitang got the goods, he was bought by the people sent by Li Han on the same day or the next day.

If Liu Guitang had kept an eye on it, he might be able to find some clues, but unfortunately, at this time, Liu Guitang's had completely fallen into the eyes of money, just because the opium business was very hot in Chahar, where would he have thought that this was a trap given to him by Li Han.

"Li Han's little rabbit cub is doing well in Chahar, Chahar, a place where birds don't, has been made full of factories, I don't know, I thought it was into Tianjin City, I heard that millions of silver dollars are put into the account every month, but unfortunately, they were all swallowed by the security army."

In a hidden mountain villa in Zhangjiakou, a group of people gathered together to discuss something loudly, among them was a middle-aged man in his thirties, sitting in the middle, obviously he had the highest status among these people, and it was a person with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks next to him who spoke.

"What do you know, if it weren't for the fact that there are more and more rich people in Chahar, our tobacco can be sold so hot, in my opinion, let the commander continue to expand the scale.

Li Han, a little cub, earns millions of silver dollars a month when he is tired and tired, and he has to spread it evenly throughout the province, and we have one or two million a month just by buying tobacco, which is not much more than him. ”

"Hmph, Li Han, this bastard, thinks that by trapping my uncle in Chadong, he can trap us to death, but Lao Tzu is selling drugs under his nose, what can he do with me.

Speaking of which, we still have to thank him, if it weren't for him, Chahar wouldn't be so full of silver, if Chahar was still the same dead as before, we would still make a fart.

When we have the money, we will buy guns and cannons from the Japanese to snatch Chahar from Li Han's hands, and the Japanese have promised my uncle that when we take Chahar, they will hand over Chahar to his old man's house. ”

The middle-aged man sitting in the middle snorted coldly and said.
