Chapter 173: The Economy is the Lifeblood

Friedman's arrival immediately made Ouyang very happy.

Because he knew Friedman too well, as early as a few days ago, Ouyang had told him everything he controlled about the current economic situation of the Lanlong Kingdom and the information he had obtained from Ran Ciyan.

Now that he is here, not to mention that he can be sure enough, then there must be a major discovery!

"Brigade Commander, if the empire can fully implement my economic plan, I am confident that within 30 days, the economy of the Lanlong Kingdom will decline by one percent!"

These were Friedman's first words upon arrival.

Ouyang frowned and said, "In a month, it can only make their economy decline by one percent?" That's too slow, isn't it? ”

I have to say that Friedman's words made Ouyang very dissatisfied.

Or even a little disappointed!

"The greatest economic master of the 20th century is too watery." Ouyang couldn't help but complain in his heart.

The economic situation has declined by one percent, which is already a great thing in peacetime, and it can make the Lanlong Kingdom hurt its muscles and bones, but now it is wartime, and the economy of the Lanlong Kingdom will only decline by one percent, which is a drop in the bucket at all, and it has almost no effect.

The Tang Empire can't afford it!

"Brigadier Commander, listen to me first."

Friedman continued: "My economic plan, in the early days, was very slow, and even anyone who knew how to do it could have done it much better than I did. However, their economic means are nothing more than to use their strong military strength to cut off the transportation of materials in the Lanlong Kingdom, and then raise the prices of rice, flour, oil and other materials, expand the military costs of the Lan army, and cause them to be financially stretched. ”

Hearing this, Ouyang nodded.

Judging from the news that has been collected recently, the truth is indeed as Friedman said.

The three columns of the Right Route Army, what they are currently doing is to cut off the transportation of materials in the central and eastern regions of the Lanlong Kingdom, which has greatly raised the cost of living in the Lanlong Kingdom and caused the prices to skyrocket!

- The economy of the Frozen Lanlong Kingdom.

"Is there a problem with this plan?" Ouyang frowned.

"Huh!"

Friedman laughed: "It's not just a problem, it's a big mistake, the person who made this plan should be guillotined!" ”

At this moment, Friedman's expression was full of pride and disdain for the makers of the Tang Empire's emergency plan.

Friedman said: "Intervening in the enemy's economy by force and cutting off the enemy's material transportation is completely influential, it will cause the economy of the Lanlong Kingdom to decline by 3% at most, and it also requires continuous investment of a large amount of military power to complete, this kind of time-consuming and laborious means, and the results are extremely poor, it is simply stupid." ”

Suddenly, Ouyang changed color slightly.

Because Ouyang caught a glimmer of inspiration from Friedman's words.

"There are thousands of economic means in the world, from the earliest barter to the later monetary economy, but to sum up, there are only two kinds, one is government intervention, and the other is the market economy!"

Friedman said in a deep voice: "According to my analysis over time, the economy of the Lanlong Kingdom is mainly based on the market economy, and it is the same now. Therefore, if you want to deal a heavy blow to the economy of the Lanlong Kingdom, you must start with the market economy of the Lanlong Kingdom itself! ”

"Hmm!"

Ouyang nodded and said, "Then what is the expected effect of your plan?" ”

The expected effect is a problem that Ouyang has to consider.

If it's too long, no matter how well you plan, it's useless. Because there is not much time left for the Tang Empire!

At that moment, Friedman pondered for a moment, looked at Ouyang and said solemnly: "Within 30 days, let the economic situation of the Lanlong Kingdom decline by one percent, this is the premise to ensure that the next plan can be implemented, and there can be no big difference." ”

"Although the results of this step are very slow, once the next plan is launched, I am confident that within a week, the economy of the Lanlong Kingdom will directly drop by half!"

Straight down?!

Bang!!!

At this moment, Ouyang couldn't stay calm anymore!

What kind of situation is the situation that halves a country's economy, others don't know, but Ouyang knows it very well.

the Great Depression;

Financial crisis;

I have to say that Ouyang was really shocked by Friedman's words!

However.

Friedman's next sentence completely convinced Ouyang!

"Brigade Commander, after the second step plan is completed, the next step of the plan can be implemented, and it only takes about three more days for me to have the confidence to completely collapse the economic system of the Lanlong Kingdom!"

"Moreover, the main force of the more than 100,000 Lan army on the Niuhatton defense line will not get a grain of grain, and it will be self-defeating!"

At that moment, Ouyang couldn't care about anything anymore, and directly took the thick stack of papers from Friedman's hand and took them all.

In the following time, Ouyang read every page, his heartbeat accelerated, and after reading it all, Ouyang couldn't find any words to describe Friedman's genius!

It's a genius plan!

This is a plan that can directly destroy the Lanlong Kingdom without bloodshed!

Ouyang, who was overjoyed, almost couldn't help but hug Friedman and kiss him wildly.

But.

Ouyang, who had calmed down, frowned deeply. Because of this plan, it requires too much money, a number that is enough to shock everyone.

~~~~

~~~~~~

It was around 9 a.m. that day.

Ouyang took Friedman directly, took a car, and quickly rushed to the headquarters of the 103rd Regiment to meet the son of the FΓΌhrer Ran, Ran Ciyan!

This genius economic plan, just relying on Ouyang alone, or even the entire New Ninth Brigade, is not enough to complete, there must be the strength of a country!

"Market economy?"

"Destroy the economic system of the Lanlong Kingdom with money?!"

After listening to Ouyang's words, Ran Ciyan couldn't help but say angrily: "I said Brigade Commander Ou, did you come all the way to trick me?" Are you kidding! ”

"Don't worry, you listen to me in detail."

Regarding Ran Ciyan's reaction, Ouyang had already expected it. In the eyes of many people in this era, economic means to destroy a country are simply fantastical, but Ouyang, who is from the 21st century, knows very well the horror of the economy!

The economy can make a country strong;

In the same way, it can cause a country to collapse directly!

~~~~

After 30 minutes.

After Friedman finished the plan.

Ran Ciyan, who had always been extremely calm, was already stunned, and the whole person jumped up from his seat.

Struck dumb!

"This, this, this~~~!"

Ran Ciyan said with a solemn expression: "This genius plan is comparable to an army of 200,000. But this requires a lot of investment. ”

Lots of money?

Of course there are a lot, otherwise Ouyang wouldn't have come to him non-stop!

- 2 billion!

Friedman said in a deep voice: "2 billion is just the most basic number, if you want to ensure the successful completion of the plan, you must invest more, and I expect the number to be at least 5 billion!" ”

At this moment, whether it was Ouyang or Ran Ciyan, they were all stunned!

"Impossible!"

"Don't even think about it, my Tang Empire can't come up with so much money at all!"

Ran Ciyan almost roared.

However, Ouyang and Friedman looked at each other and both laughed.
