Chapter Ninety-Four: The Locust Rebellion That Begins from the Inside
"What's going on?"
Gangmura Ningji rubbed his forehead.
Knowing that his chief of staff had been killed again, Gangmura's tone was surprised, but it was only surprise.
And not much.
It was as he expected.
So far, the locust army in North China still lacks the means and methods to deal with the Eighth Route Army's precise air attacks on a large scale.
The attack height is more than 3,000 meters or even more.
"Don't talk about it now, the locust army after the large-scale expansion."
In order to prepare for the large-scale sweep that is about to begin, in order to raise more troops, more supplies, he has been busy lately.
As long as any of these fifty people were eroded and the news leaked, the Eighth Route Army would be able to know his location and plot an attack.
The follow-up cooperation is also a one-time start of 1,000 dollars.
Even if he is in the position of commander.
Anyway, killing a devil chief of staff is 1.5 million silver dollars a month, or 6 million dollars a year.
"Happy working together!"
To get $20,000, he needed twenty-five years.
The devil staff swallowed his throat.
The headquarters is no longer willing to mobilize the people.
This group of people is easy to be bought.
If it weren't for the fact that the locusts still had a certain military advantage and the local security was at ease, he was sure that there would inevitably be a lot of Japanese traitors - the empire was no better than the Republic of China, and there were also a lot of scum who were greedy for life and death.
The Eighth Route Army was not the same as the Empire.
This shot is a 25-year military salary, and it is in US dollars, which is more valuable.
Now the betrayal within the empire can be regarded as the price paid for the sake of profit.
The death of a high-ranking officer in an accident, on the battlefield, in an assassination, is very common, with little or no impact, but after being notified by the enemy, he is still killed, and throughout the history of warfare, it is extremely rare.
This is also the core reason why the locust army will inevitably have a large-scale intelligence leak in the near future, and it can even be said that there is no one, the defeat is like a mountain, and it is not the situation that falls, but the morale.
And even grassroots soldiers can understand this truth.
Dollar.
"This is the armament and personnel of my brigade."
A devil staff officer handed a confidential piece of information to the male Zhi.
With the increased vigilance of the First Army of the Devils, security has been strengthened, and the troops are not short of silver dollars.
Plus there is no hope of promotion.
In North China, most of the positions, as long as they are attacked by the Eighth Route Army, the other party can calmly launch an attack and retreat calmly, and the locust army has no choice.
But...
"It's only five hundred dollars for just providing information."
Thirty thousand dollars, isn't it much better than a locust or something?
"Five hundred dollars."
The rest are realistic factions, bent on making money and profits.
In particular, the Devil is a modern army with a fixed equipment establishment table.
Yao Ji shopkeeper reminded.
And just a little more.
"For the good of the empire, but also for the good of officers and soldiers."
"What do I have to do to get half a million dollars?"
Taiyuan.
"It's a pleasure to work with."
Half a million dollars.
That's two million Imperial Coins.
Otherwise, it is impossible to prevent it.
Now the yen has depreciated even further, with 30,000 US dollars, equivalent to 130,000 yen.
"Chief of Staff Takamatsu is hidden in the basement of the former headquarters."
But the war to the present,
"Or..."
The so-called loyalty is nothing more than betrayal, and the price is not enough.
"It's Yoshino United..."
Tubalu, the intelligence infiltration of the North China Front Headquarters, was much more serious than he thought.
"If you can do it, you can get up to half a million dollars."
But the security of the chief of staff, he also has concerns.
"Good!"
Shopkeeper Yao Ji replied.
Yao Ji's shopkeeper's eyes lit up.
What can the locust give him?
300 yen a month?
As for the risks.
"Hey..."
Three times in a row, no, now it's four, the chief of staff, after being openly wanted, was killed by the Eighth Route Army, and the blow to the morale of the locust army was extremely fatal.
Silver.
"War, you can get benefits, you can get markets."
"What should I do?"
"Still."
At the beginning of the war, he did devote himself wholeheartedly to the locusts and the holy war, and he did everything he could.
One and a half million silver dollars, even at the transaction price near the base, is equivalent to 500,000 US dollars. Therefore, the headquarters directly took out the quota for January to offer a reward.
"Within the Locust Army, there must be a large number of officers who have been bought by the Eighth Route Army to provide a steady stream of intelligence for the Eighth Route Army."
however
This kind of classified information is readily available to the staff officers of the War Department.
"Even at the beginning of the war, the locust army, which had just begun to expand its army, could not be stopped."
1,500,000 silver dollars per month,
Now the chief of staff is broken again.
Further cooperation can be carried out in the future.
Other words.
Yamamoto said.
With the salary of an ordinary brigade combat staff officer, plus the allowance for front-line service, it is only more than 300 yen per month, or only 5,000 yen a year.
Senior officers must be in constant contact with the troops, so it is difficult to conceal the position.
The devil counselor asked.
But it also proves that the absolute financial superiority of the Eighth Route Army, and even the locusts army, relying on military superiority, make a profit of more than 10 million US dollars per month, which is still the data after excluding a large amount of corruption.
The devil's staff officer was obviously very dissatisfied with this price.
A devil chief of staff of the First Army is 1.5 million silver dollars per month.
"Chief of Staff position?"
Although there are reasons for the empire to collect new Hebei coins for convenience, so as to exchange them for silver dollars to obtain benefits.
got 20,000 US dollars, and the devil staff officer was also overjoyed.
Gangmura Ningji finally sighed, waved his hand, and motioned for his subordinates to leave.
···
Just when Ishihara Waner and Okamura Ninji were talking in secret.
And now,
In North China, all the coins in circulation are the New Hebei South Currency issued by Tubalu, which is very stable and can be exchanged for silver dollars in equal amounts, as well as US dollars, and even the imperial yen has been swept away.
"We can't stop the greed of human nature."
Because through this information, we can easily know the equipment and personnel circulation of this unit, and then analyze the combat effectiveness of this unit.
"But it was bombed by the Eighth Route Army, and the jade was shattered along with the young man in charge of security."
Gangcun sighed again.
Even many of them are very dissatisfied with the empire and the locusts.
The devil's staff officer's eyes lit up, and he happily took the $10,000 dollar, counted it, confirmed that it was genuine, and couldn't wait to kick it into his bag.
The empire once offered a reward of 500,000 for Li Yunlong's head, but that was just a mouthful, but the Eighth Route Army, that was really given.
Why wouldn't he?
As for the impact on the empire, the sentence of the locust army against the locust,
The 5th Mixed Brigade was stationed.
He understood that the highest could get half a million dollars.
Then, this devil staff officer suddenly asked:
"Need information on the location of our chief of staff?"
Saying that, Ishihara's tone was categorical:
The Imperial Locust Army is no longer the locust army of three years ago, with the expansion of the scale, the expansion of interest groups, but the actual interests can not be bigger, resulting in a large part of the people being reduced to the margins.
···
In the afternoon of the same day.
Inside the headquarters.
For a while, he really couldn't think of how to fight against the erosion of the dirt road.
"I see."
"Provide intelligence and operational support to our hands-on personnel to ensure the safety of the operatives, and also receive half a million dollars."
Even in Tokyo, you can buy a few luxury houses, a few luxury cars, and the rest of the money can live a rich life.
No way.
The man patted the staff officer in front of him on the shoulder, took the information, and then handed the devil staff officer 20,000 US dollars.
And the empire itself, even can't wait to lie on the North China Front to suck blood.
···
An hour later.
"The purpose of this war of ours is profit."
After all, the current financial situation of the army is not cost-effective to sacrifice precious soldiers for a mere 1.5 million silver dollars per month.
What will happen to a demoralized army, Ishihara knows it, and so does Gangmura Ningji.
In the face of Yamamoto's inquiry, Ishihara Waner answered without hesitation.
With such an absolute financial advantage, the Eighth Route Army had the strength to buy off almost all of the imperial officers of the North China Front.
It's not too much.
The problem of the Fourth Division is not just an isolated case.
Picking up a report on the financial situation of the Eighth Route Army in North China and the investigation and analysis report produced by Ishihara Waner, Gangcun Ningji sighed deeply.
Because of the interest of 10 million dollars per month, without hesitation, it was opened up to machinery and equipment that were previously considered absolutely forbidden materials, as well as raw materials that could be used to make explosives.
Blood to earn!
"Half a million dollars!"
"We thought that it was Bushido that supported the empire to continue fighting, but in fact, it was the interests that supported the empire to continue fighting."
At the moment they are armed with anti-aircraft artillery that is simply out of reach.
Proof of one thing.
He has no background.
"I'm sure."
"There's no way."
The answer did not surprise Gangcun.
In the words of the Republic of China, since it is all a matter of losing heads, it is natural that whoever gives more money will help whoever does things.
In battle, you can decide the outcome of the battle.
"At the end of the day."
Therefore, there is information about the chief of staff of the devil's first army recently, and the offer is very low.
Very busy.
Eight Lu gave him $30,000.
A devil staff officer handed over the intelligence of the most elite mobile wing of the First Army and the mobile wing with the strongest combat effectiveness to Yao Ji's treasurer.
Finally, Ishihara sighed.
"All we can do now is to launch an offensive as soon as possible and see if we can destroy the Eighth Route Army."
The shopkeeper of Yao Ji handed over $10,000 to the devil staff officer in front of him.
Although the locust army also has fighter jets, it is often only five to ten minutes from the time the enemy plane is spotted until the bomb falls, unless there are fighter jets patrolling the air or a key warning area.
In the locust army, there are either brain-dead factions, die-hard factions that are regarded as ghosts by the top of the empire, only locusts and jihad in their heads, their abilities are not good, they can shout slogans better than anyone else, and they only know how to act impulsively.
Doing things for the locusts, there is no risk?
For this reason, an economic section was even specially set up that directly belonged to the command of the base camp.
In the headquarters of the North China Front, there are more than 50 people who know about it.
Take a look at today's base camp.
"Yo Si."
"Let General Ishihara come over."
The latter means that there is a fundamental difference in strength between the two sides.
There is no doubt that the armament of a unit, a force of more than 7,000 troops, and its personnel and armament are the highest secrets of this army, and there is not even a single one.
"Yo Si."
There was another reason, he didn't say.
"You do it yourself, and then you ask us for the money."
Shopkeeper Yao Ji raised his voice, and his tone was quiet:
Respond to the intelligence offensive of the Eighth Route Army.
Northern Review.
It also means that as long as the enemy wants to, he can easily destroy the headquarters of the North China Front.
He touched the $10,000 in cash in his hand.
The devil staff officer took a deep breath and decided to do it.
Half a million dollars.
It's worth the risk. (End of chapter)
