026 Monetary reform
As soon as the results of the shooting were reported, there was an uproar in the school field, everyone muttered in a low voice, and a trivial sound like a buzz sounded everywhere. Zhang Zuoxiang, the host of the meeting, coughed a few times into the microphone, and the venue quieted down, but the officers and soldiers still looked at the mysterious gunmen in surprise, not only the soldiers of the Northeast Army, but also the officers and soldiers of the National Defense Army, after all, their costumes were too weird, and the most amazing thing was their achievements.
Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, Huang Ke knew that his goal had been achieved. He whispered a few words to Du Yuming next to him, Du Yuming nodded, and his adjutant called over. After a while, the five sharpshooters came to the rostrum.
After approaching these people, Zhang Xueliang and the others found that these people were not wearing clothes at all, but were made of various strips of cloth and objects woven into something similar to a fishing net, but he couldn't see what the effect of these things was?
"Minister Huang, don't you choose a few people who sing big operas? Ha ha. A high-ranking general of the Northeast Army made a joke unscrupulously, and everyone laughed along, with a slight mockery in these laughs.
Huang Ke didn't think so, only to see him stand up and walk to the microphone on the rostrum, lightly touch the microphone with his fingers with white gloves, try the effect, and after a while, he said softly: "Come out!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a few soldiers dressed similarly to those people just now come out from several different positions in the school field, and they were all carrying wrapped rifles in their hands. Several soldiers gathered in a column in the middle of the school field, and walked towards the rostrum in a column amid the amazed eyes of everyone.
Once again, everyone was surprised that although the lurking position of these people was not a conspicuous place in the school grounds, they were sure that these people did not enter here after they entered the school grounds, and it seemed that they had been hiding here in the morning.
Zhang Xueliang's mood was a little turbulent, it seemed that these people were ambushed before he entered, but they didn't greet him in advance. He turned his eyes to the officer in charge of the defense of the Beida Battalion, and the officer was also at a loss, indicating that he did not know about the matter.
Zhang Xueliang turned his head over, he couldn't get angry on this occasion. As if seeing through Zhang Xueliang's worries, Huang Ke came over and said with a smile: "Han Qing, these soldiers were arranged by me in advance, they secretly sneaked in here last night to ambush, don't be surprised if they didn't greet you." ”
Zhang Xueliang let out a sigh of relief, but he was faintly uneasy in his heart, and he smiled and said: "Brother Xinghua is joking, why don't you introduce you gunmen to everyone." ”
Huang Ke nodded and said: "Actually, I don't have any other intentions, I just want to introduce you to a new type of combat method, I call it 'special operations', these people are not gunners, they are 'snipers'!" ”
"Snipers? What is a sniper called? Apparently the crowd didn't understand this new word. Huang Ke gave a general description of the sniper's training, combat objectives, and equipment.
"Snipers can be integrated into the squad platoon of the infantry and equipped with exclusive sniper weapons, which can form effective combat effectiveness and deterrence on the battlefield. Of course, we are still only in the stage of training and experiments, and the specific operation still needs to be explored in actual combat, but judging from today's situation, such a exploration is still successful. Han Qing, imagine that the sniper ambushed below was sent by the Japanese, so can you and I talk here so easily? ”
Although Zhang Xueliang's face was a little unbearable, he still secretly admired it in his heart, it seems that Huang Ke's training is really worthy of his reputation, and then look at the Northeast Army under his command, if the two sides go to war, it is difficult for him to imagine what the result will be? However, more officers didn't think so, they sneered that Huang Ke was too petty in the war, how could he rely on such a few people to win the war?
Huang Ke did not explain this, and the friendship exchange meeting ended amid laughter and applause. With the end of this exchange meeting, the general situation in the northeast region has also settled, and the northeast region is administratively divided into four provinces: Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, and Rehe, and the chief executives of the four provinces are all appointed by the central government. Militarily, most of the four northeastern provinces were divided into the Northeast Theater, and Zhang Xueliang served as the commander of the theater, and the original hundreds of thousands of units of the Northeast Army and some units of the National Defense Force were mixed and reorganized; after some of the old, weak, sick and disabled units were reduced, less than 100,000 people remained mixed into the three group armies, and the rest of the troops, in addition to being dismissed on the spot, also rebuilt many armed police units for internal defense and law and order.
The three newly incorporated army groups were numbered 11, 16, and 18; Its garrison was the 11th Group Army stationed in Liaoyang, the 16th Group Army stationed in Harbin, and the 18th Group Army stationed in Changchun.
After the establishment of the Northeast Theater, the reform of the whole army began, relying on the production of Jiangnan Heavy Industry and Benniu Machinery Factory, the troops were soon all equipped with new-style equipment, dark green matte steel helmets, lapel-collar national defense uniforms, imitation Czech light machine guns, tanks, and other weapons.
At a time when the army rectification movement was vigorous, the central government in Nanjing also set off a vigorous military reform movement. The central government in Nanjing announced the abolition of the silver standard and implemented a new round of monetary reform, and the newly issued fiat currency replaced the silver dollar and various currencies previously circulated in the market, and since then the unified fiat currency has gradually spread throughout the country. Huang Ke showed little interest in these reforms, and spent his weekends at his home in Nanjing, reading the information collected by the Advance Cadre Office on Tokyo and the documents sent by the General Staff. During this time, Japan was relatively calm, except for the assassination of Kenji Dohihara and Yoshiko Kawashima in the northeast who carried out Zhang Xuecheng's rebellion, their intelligence agencies were also much more restrained, Huang Ke suspected that there was some plan behind it, so he asked Yang Yibing to pay more attention.
Then look down, the following is a summary of military equipment, the content is not a lot, that is, "Benniu Machinery Factory" in Luoyang, Changchun and other places to expand branches, Jiangnan Heavy Industry began to develop new long-range bombers and the like; There is also the establishment of the Jiangnan Shipyard in Mawei under the auspices of Chen Shaokuan......
Huang Ke casually glanced at it a few times, and continued to read down, this is the news about the Songhu armed police force, Sun Liren is very capable, he has smashed the actions of the Japanese army several times, and now Shanghai is under the control of the Songhu armed police force; There is also a piece of news in Shenzhen, saying that the public security situation there is getting worse and worse, and several foreign inflows have formed a lot of forces, and this place is Huang Ke's cash cow, so he will often care about it, seeing this situation Huang Ke can't help but be a little angry, he reviewed it on it, and asked the police commissioner Lei Luo to strengthen the management of public security. Looking at Huang Ke, he couldn't help but feel a little tired, he put the documents on the table, rubbed his eyes, lay on the rocking chair, and staggered and prepared to sleep.
At this time, Zhao Xiaowan came over with a cup of freshly brewed green tea, she knew that Huang Ke liked to drink tea, and she liked this faint green tea the most, so she would prepare some every day. Zhao Xiaowan is much more virtuous than before, and she is a bit of a good wife and mother at home.
Zhao Xiaowan sat down and put a blanket on Huang Ke, at this time Huang Ke had already noticed something, he opened his eyes and smiled at Zhao Xiaowan.
"What about the kids?" Huang Ke smiled slightly.
"Huang Zheng took Zheng'er out to play, Huang Ying went to school, and the family was finally free." Zhao Xiaowan sat next to Erlang with her legs crossed, and said in a complaining but proud tone. Her parents died when she was a child, and what she longed for most was this kind of harmonious family.
"That's, that's!" Huang Ke looked at Zhao Xiaowan's thighs, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, to be honest, Zhao Xiaowan is no longer as young and spicy as when she first met her, and the "Guan Zhilin" back then was already a little haggard, but she had the charm of a mature woman.
Huang Ke stared at her slender thighs with a malicious smile, and Zhao Xiaowan patted him and said, "It's in the yard." ”
As he was talking, Fourteen Tsai walked in and said, "Mr. Fu Wangshan and Zhao Tinghui from Guangzhou are here." ”
Huang Ke was a little surprised that these two people came over, they were both in Guangzhou, and they definitely didn't come here at this time just to visit him. Don't think about it too much, Huang Ke put on his clothes and said, "Bring people into the living room, and I'll go over." ”
As expected, Fu Wangshan and Zhao Tinghui did not come to see Huang Ke this time, they actually came to ask for help this time.
In the living room, after Huang Ke came over and exchanged a few words with the two, Fu Wangshan said straight to the point: "Commander, we really have something to ask for this time. ”
Huang Ke's face became grim, he knew that his maternal uncle Zhao Tinghui liked to ask for help, but Fu Wangshan rarely spoke, it seemed that he must have encountered something tricky.
"Brother Wangshan, don't be polite, if you need my help, just open your mouth." Huang Kedao.
Fu Wangshan sighed and said, "Actually, it's not me, it's really to save the merchant group." The monetary and economic reforms introduced by the central government not long ago were a good thing, but some people took advantage of the opportunity to make a lot of business, and many of our industries were eaten up. ”
Huang Ke couldn't help frowning, he didn't care much about economic matters, it was the new Finance Minister Kong Xiangxi who was in charge of monetary and economic reform, of course Huang Ke knew this person in history, but he also had some talent, could it be that he was reaping benefits from it? If this is the case, it will be a little tricky, after all, Kong Xiangxi and Jiang Zhongzheng are both a common interest group, and if one of them is moved, it will affect the others.
Thinking of this, Huang Ke couldn't help frowning.
