Chapter 724: First Sight of Chen Jiageng

It turned out that just now, when the secret service personnel guided them to go here secretly, Chen Jiageng informed the northwest side of his intention to seek support from the northwest side, and it was also very helpless about it, because Zheng Mingsheng and them did not tell him the real purpose until now, and it also notified the northwest as soon as possible.

The personnel of the Nanyang delegation are close, and it is unceremonious to say that there is not much time left for the northwest, but whether it is Yang Yuanzhao or Shi Lei, they are all relatively happy, especially Yang Yuanzhao, who came to this world in order to change China, and the Chinese people are willing to improve themselves, and establish their own forces, which he approves.

Before the First World War, before the Northwest really had a strong controlling power, the Northwest could not touch Southeast Asia for the time being, even if it was a German-American farm, it also needed Chinese and natives as a cover, otherwise, the Northwest would be tantamount to opposing the whole world.

With such a traverser as Yang Yuanzhao and an anti-heaven artifact like an all-in-one machine, the future Northwest will not be afraid of opposing the whole world, but not now, now in the Northwest, it may be possible to carry Russia, the European steamroller, alone, but if the navies and armies of other countries go together, it will be very troublesome, even if Europe arms Russia with weapons, it will be very difficult.

The Ministry of Intelligence and the General Staff have been making plans all along, and contacting the Chinese is only the first step, and the next step is to let the Chinese take the initiative and push out a part of the natives to jointly fight against the Dutch colonial authorities, so that in a short period of time. It will not attract the prying eyes of Britain and France, especially if the war is maintained at a certain intensity.

This plan itself may be after the Nanyang delegation comes. And then step by step, now. Chen Jiageng and they sent it to the door, the Chinese family with it, the lowest is also in Southeast Asia for decades, and those led by the Zheng family have taken root in Nanyang for hundreds of years, and Nanyang is really a local war for them, which is much stronger than outsiders like Demei Farm, if they come forward. It's much easier.

The northwest may have other ideas about the South Seas, but no matter how you say it, they are all of the same root and species, and they are all ruled by the Chinese, which is much stronger than the white-skinned and red-haired foreigners.

The most critical thing is that Tan Kah Kee also specifically mentioned a request, this time the Nanyang delegation, in addition to the surface. In addition to the 45 million Northwest Yuan machinery and equipment, there is also a secret agreement signed, and they will spend 8 million silver dollars in military expenses and 2 million in training fees, totaling 10 million yuan. Entrusted the German-American farm to help them train 4 divisions, a total of 70,000 troops. By the way, there is also a small formation of mine-striking boats. This can be produced in China. It is also possible to import from abroad, so that they Nanyang Chinese, on a certain stage, have a preliminary armament.

The great powers are all one, and the Nanyang Chinese have not thought about building an independent army before, but there is no entry point at all, and they barely rely on accumulation to obtain a little capital and status, hundreds of guns, this is no problem, as long as they spend money, there are many channels to get it, but no matter how much, it will not work. Besides, the army is not a gun, and for those who have not been trained and have only a gun, they are nothing more than a family, nothing more than a rabble, and there is no place to help them train the army, and they cannot find a place to avoid the Dutch.

But now, the northwest has appeared, the northwest is in Heilong Island, and among the large islands in the entire Southeast Asian seas, there are more than 20 different islands, and the northwest, with its strong combat effectiveness, has established a relatively solid defense line on these islands at once, and it is still impossible to deal with battleships, in the eyes of the Chinese businessmen in Nanyang, this unknown sea area has become a huge key point in the northwest strategy, and most importantly, the army and armed forces they have been looking forward to are now a place for training in the future.

The previous intelligence of the Intelligence Bureau, coupled with Chen Jiageng's active disclosure, Yang Yuanzhao basically did not doubt the sincerity of the Chinese, in the past few centuries, especially after the arrival of the Western colonizers, basically according to the law of harvesting, countless blood and tears, countless betrayals, it is almost impossible for them to fall to the colonists, because they know that the colonizers are just treating them as slaves without shackles.

If you want to target the northwest, if nothing else, as long as the news of the German-American farm is quietly reported to the colonial authorities, the northwest will be very troublesome, which is also the fundamental reason why Yang Yuanzhao is relieved to contact these people.

"They should have arrived, you can call a few people and go down with me!" Yang Yuanzhao casually instructed Shi Lei, Shi Lei's identity, it is inconvenient to walk to the front desk for the time being, the current northwest is far less powerful, and he cannot bear the protection of Shi Lei, after all, he is not Yang Yuanzhao, it is impossible to be protected by special forces and guards 24 hours a day, once someone wants to, maybe there will be some damage, and the current northwest cannot afford this loss.

In Yang Yuanzhao's plan, it was only the core meeting between the industrial and commercial departments and the Nanyang delegation, and the discussion was also about the construction of factories and some supporting things, which could not wait for the colonial authorities to set up, so they could only go on their own, but fortunately, when the Northwest established the industrial system, it had accumulated a lot of experience, and now it can also produce almost all kinds of things, and use this to support Nanyang, so that they can obtain sufficient production capacity.

But now it seems that it is necessary for the people from the military department and the intelligence department to go out together, fortunately, the distance is not very far, when Yang Yuanzhao slowly walked down the stairs and arrived at the hall below, four lieutenant colonel officers and several young men in black suits were already standing there.

In the current northwest, whether it is the government system or the army system, it has expanded to a very large extent, among the more than one million troops, there are almost hundreds of lieutenant colonel officers, such a number, Yang Yuanzhao cannot know all the lieutenant colonel officers, to be exact, even if it is a major general at the division commander level, if he is not born in the old northwest, he will stand out from the military academy later, Yang Yuanzhao may not know, and there are more real exchanges, that is, lieutenant general officers at the army level, in the current 12 group armies in the northwest, Such people, the commander, the deputy commander, the chief of staff combined, that is, more than thirty.

The key to the dazzling color of the Ministry of Intelligence is that there are no particularly eye-catching marks, and the best candidates are those who are thrown on the street and cannot be found, and those who will be forgotten, so that they are suitable for intelligence work.

A lieutenant colonel officer and a young man stood up and took the initiative to introduce to Yang Yuanzhao that the four lieutenant colonel officers were from the military department, all of whom were members of the staff of the Northwest Army, and they were all very experienced, especially two of them were also from the recruit department.

Yang Yuanzhao did not wait in the hall, but went directly to the conference room, where commercial and industrial personnel were also waiting, preparing for a long table meeting, and according to their identities and positions, they would sit face to face.

Everyone arrived, did not wait long, Chen Jiageng and others were brought in, this is the first time Yang Yuanzhao saw Chen Jiageng, when he went to Germany before, Chen Jiageng has not yet contacted the German and American farms in the northwest, and when he went back, he should have stopped in the South Seas, but the appearance of pirates and that shocking war made Yang Yuanzhao understand that it is more dangerous to carry these goods, even if he has approached China, even if the German East Asian fleet comes to respond, he did not stay too much, but quickly returned to China, missed the opportunity to meet Chen Jiageng, the richest man in Southeast Asia and China during the Republic of China.

Yang Yuanzhao is observing Chen Jiageng, Chen Jiageng and Zheng Mingsheng are also observing Yang Yuanzhao, the first feeling is that he is young, Yang Yuanzhao has passed through 5 years, according to the age, he is 30 years old, but 5 years have passed, time has not left a trace on his face at all, this is also what Yang Yuanzhao was surprised by, maybe this is the welfare brought by the crossing, maybe it is the help brought by the all-in-one machine, Yang Yuanzhao even feels that when the all-in-one machine is used more and more, it seems that his energy is getting stronger and stronger, Sometimes, just two or three hours of sleep at night is enough to refresh for the day.

Chen Jiageng sighed at Yang Yuanzhao's youth, and admired Yang Yuanzhao's work even more, what was China like before, Chen Jiageng, who came out of China, knew very well that he was poor, backward and ignorant, but since Yang Yuanzhao arrived in the northwest for 5 years, the northwest has undergone almost earth-shaking changes, as far as he can see, compared to Europe, what surprised him even more is that the people of the northwest, when they were in the German and American farms, have felt the arrogance engraved in their bones, in Baotou in the northwest, This feeling is even stronger, and sometimes Chen Jiageng even doubts whether he is standing in the same dimension as Yang Yuanzhao, are these Chinese really the people of the Qing Dynasty who officially died the year before last?

Chen Jiageng shook hands with Yang Yuanzhao, and then Zheng Mingsheng's came up, Zheng Mingsheng is different from Chen Jiageng, he glanced at Yang Yuanzhao a little critically, it seemed to have some kind of scrutiny, Yang Yuanzhao is no stranger to such a vision, at this time, he can already ignore other people's opinions, as long as the layout of the northwest is completed in one or two years, in the case of the army, navy and air force have enough strength, the northwest is not afraid of any challenge.

China, located in East Asia, in fact, has enough strategic advantages like the United States, and if Europe wants to come over, it has to cross the Mediterranean Sea and the Indian Ocean, and if the United States wants to come over, it has to cross the Pacific Ocean. (To be continued......)
