Chapter 545

Although he did not receive the support of his father and family, Fang Jingyao, who was already rebellious and strong, devoted himself to his revolutionary cause as always, and honed his achievements in the military.

As the saying goes, the emperor loves the eldest son, and the people love the eldest son, don't look at the old man's hard mouth, he still cares about everything about his younger son in private, and specially sent someone to Yunnan to give Tang Jiyao, the leader of the Yunnan Army, several big gifts, plus their Fang family is also involved in some business networks in Yunnan, even if they catch up with the way they come and go, the old man Fang just wants the other party to take more care of his son.

But the young Fang Jingyao was full of enthusiasm and devoted himself to the ranks, and he didn't care about these things at all, but even he himself was amazed, from a little-known small infantry platoon commander, he actually became a battalion commander in a year.

Although there are reasons for his outstanding military talents, the power of money and connections is the main capital that keeps him rising.

Until the period of the Protectorate War, Fang Jingyao was promoted to lieutenant colonel because of his military exploits, and even General Cai Yi, another leader of the Yunnan army, praised him, if nothing else... With his talent, he is likely to make a name for himself in the Chinese warlord system.

It's just that the creation makes people, in the 20th year of the Republic of China, there was an accident in the Fang family, his eldest brother Fang Jingxiao was seriously injured and almost died due to a business conflict by the opponent's retaliation, although he finally picked up a life, but he also ended up with a broken leg and a disability.

And because the other party is also a big family with a head and face in Nanyang, and has some relationship with foreigners, the British government at that time, in line with the principle of turning big things into small ones, let the other side lose some money and hastily close the case, but the real culprit sat back and sat back and got away with it.

For this reason, the old man Fang was also in a hurry and fell ill in bed, and at this moment, the Fang family seemed to be about to fall, and became panicked.

At such a moment of crisis, Fang Jingyao had to retire from the army and return home to take on the responsibility of being the pillar, saying nothing that could destroy their Fang family.

The British only look at interests, and discriminate against the Nanyang Chinese, and the local natives are very resistant to the Chinese, even to the point of hatred, Fang Jingyao knows that no one can be relied on in this troubled world, and only the gun can become his own confidence.

So he took A Gui as the leader, gathered a group of young subordinates, and with the support of the Fang family's large financial resources, he went to the black market to buy guns and weapons, and soon formed a powerful force in the local underworld.

Fang Jingyao used the iron and bloody wrist cultivated in the military world to move between black and white, whether it was the business world or the underworld, he integrated and annexed a lot, and there was inevitably blood and rain in the process, but he also relied on his hard power to quickly help the family stabilize the situation.

After this incident, the Fang family not only took revenge and regained what they had lost, but even went one step further, allowing the Fang family to truly enter the ranks of the Nanyang family.

Looking at the means and abilities of his younger son, who was not competitive in the past, Old Man Fang was very pleased, the eldest son had been fated by this catastrophe, and he also intended to hand over the family business to the former to take care of.

It's a pity that Fang Jingyao didn't have much interest in business and the like, and when the situation stabilized, he lost the business to his father and eldest brother, but he plunged headlong into the gang organization he formed, thinking about annexing and integrating all the forces entrenched in the underground black market in Nanyang and turning them into a private army loyal to him.

Upon learning of this, Old Man Fang scolded this stinky boy for not changing his life, but he didn't interfere too much in this regard. Although the eldest son was ill, he also actively helped his father take care of the family's internal and external affairs, and the Fang family has grown stronger and stronger under the efforts of these two generations, and has firmly sat on the top spot in the business community in Singapore and even in the Malay Peninsula.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, with the Japanese invasion of Southeast Asia, all these good things came to naught, the eldest son died, the second son fled, and the family business of several generations collapsed in an instant... I changed it to "traitors, lackeys" that everyone shouted and beaten..."

Thinking of this, Old Man Fang couldn't help but burst into tears, everything was because of this damn war and those Japanese who were like pigs and dogs.

"Agui, bring a message to that stinky boy for me... When I was a young man, I believe that there will always be a day when the world will be cleared of the clouds, and that day will be left for you young people. ”

"Sir..."

"Go ahead!"

Old Man Fang raised his hand to interrupt it, closed his eyes and turned his back to stop talking, his aggravated tone was enough to explain everything.

Seeing that the other party had made up his mind, Agui no longer persuaded him, but just took a deep breath, bowed deeply with both hands, and said solemnly: "Master, take care!" ”

After saying that, Ah Gui pushed the door away without looking back, and no one noticed the tears left in the corners of his reddened eyes.

……

As the war continued, the U.S. military gained the initiative, and Japan's sea routes were increasingly attacked, making it more and more difficult to import supplies from overseas. However, Japan's domestic production and living are extremely dependent on overseas, which inevitably leads to a further decline in the quality of life of Japanese residents

In order to sustain the war, the Japanese concentrated all their domestic resources on the military, and increased the plundering of the domestic population, and even the rations of the Japanese people were requisitioned.

The people in the city can no longer eat snow-white rice, and even if the conditions are better, they can only eat some brown rice mixed with coarse grains. The peasants in the countryside are even more miserable, basically all the grain they have worked hard to grow has to be handed over to the state, and they can only eat coarse grains and wild vegetables.

When the cold winter comes, many Japanese farmers who have not eaten or drunk will not be able to survive the cold winter. As a result, people die of starvation in many parts of rural Japan every year.

In addition, the US military has been bombing again and again day and night, and a large number of houses have been blown up in Tokyo, Kyoto, and other cities in Japan, and countless people have been killed and injured.

This is not enough, the reckless little Japan is even more frenzied, whether it is a minor doll or an old man who is half a hundred years old, they are all forcibly conscripted into the army and sent to the front line.

Women and children were not idle, all of them worked like robots in the rear for a long time and with a lot of intensity, enduring all kinds of torture in the service of the so-called "holy war" of the Great Japanese Empire.

In the case of rice, before the outbreak of the war, the average Japanese consumed 165 kilograms of rice per person per year. By 1940, Japan could only guarantee 126 kilograms of rice per person per year, an average of only about 350 grams per day, only 75% of the pre-war period.

Today, in 1945, this figure dropped further, only about 80 kilograms per person per year, and some people had never even seen rice, so they could only go all over the mountains to cut wild vegetables and dig tree roots.

Of course, because of the high positions in Japan, their lives have not been affected much. They were just worried that they would be liquidated after the defeat, so they vigorously advocated resistance to the end, and also announced a national policy plan of 100 million jade pieces.

And many Japanese, under the influence of **** thinking, are also clamoring to fight to the death, it is not difficult to see how crazy this despicable nation is.

This is still the case for one's own people, not to mention how cruel the methods of others should be.

In order to salvage the rotten war situation, the Japanese began to plunder resources more frantically to make up for the depleting resources of the domestic and local battlefields, and Southeast Asia became their first choice.

In the early days, in order to facilitate management, the Japanese also pretended to engage in the "Huairou Policy" for several years, and now the devils have been forced to have no choice, and they have torn through their last trace of disguise, and they have not left anything that can be robbed, just like a group of evil ghosts in human skins, burning, killing, looting, and losing their conscience.

No way, from the land of China to Burma, Siam, and then to the Pacific Ocean... Several battlefields have begun to tighten, among which in the Pacific theater, several troops are trapped on the islands and have lost contact with the outside world, they have long been out of food, and it is estimated that they have now begun to gnaw on branches, and even cannibalism...

In this situation, the situation will only get worse if the plundering of the colonial powers is intensified, and this stone has stirred up a thousand waves, and the rebellion in Southeast Asia has begun to intensify.

After Ah Gui came out of the Fang family's compound, he has been busy with the things explained by the old man Fang in the past few days, because he is the general housekeeper of the Fang family, the Japanese have not restricted him too much, but at this time, the other party has also increased his eyeliner, and his actions have become more dangerous and unpredictable.

However, with years of experience and the cover of local subordinates, Ah Gui still got out of it relatively easily.

After leaving the city, he did not go directly to the destination, but first sent someone to quietly create an explosion attack in the city of Singapore, and after the attention of the Japanese was attracted by the city, he led his men to the warehouse near the port of Lindong to find the group of children.

Taking advantage of the night, a small cargo ship hidden outside the reef area slowly sailed towards the vicinity of Lindong Port, there were Japanese patrols in this water, so the cargo ship did not dare to get too close, so it could only stay three nautical miles away from the port, waiting for the other party to row a small boat to send people over.
