Bright sword, I have a red police base car

Chapter 502 The Japanese yen collapsed completely!

After the Sixth Army of the Kwantung Army entered Peking, martial law was immediately imposed in Peking.

At this time, not only were the Chinese people in Peiping forcibly expelled by the Japanese, but some puppet troops also received orders to move outside the city of Peiping, and even many Japanese troops in Peiping were subjected to strict scrutiny.

The fundamental reason for all this is that the Red Alert’s intelligence department’s infiltration into the Japanese army was too serious.

Since the communication between the Japanese navy and army was not so perfect, when the Hyuga decided to change course to Shanghai, there was no contact with the Japanese troops in Peiping, so the Japanese troops in Peiping still thought that the Tianhuang was going to Peiping.

As a result, the Sixth Army's original combat plans were all cancelled and the focus was changed to defending the city of Peking.

However, the methods used by the Japanese to defend against spies are still not as good as the professional level of Red Alert spies.

Even after the Red Alert spies lurking among the masses and the puppet army were cleared out, the Intelligence Department in Peiping still had a large number of intelligence personnel conducting reconnaissance in Peiping.

"What? The devil Tianhuang is going to Peking?!"

At this time in Dagu Mountain, Chen Xi and others were looking at Li Zhuhan's report with disbelief on their faces.

"Chief of Staff, the Sixth Army of the Kwantung Army has now entered Peking and has begun the initial security investigation. The Special High Section and other Japanese intelligence departments have also gathered in Peking, and the Japanese aviation units in North China are also moving towards Nanyuan. Although it is difficult to understand, judging from the Japanese posture, they may really be going to Peking."

After hearing Li Zhuhan's report, Zhang Ning looked at the telegram sent by the Red Alert spy on the front line in disbelief.

"No, is old devil Hirohito crazy?! How dare they go to Peking at this time? It won't take our troops in Shanxi even half a day to get to Peking. Are they coming here to die?!"

All the officers and soldiers in the Red Alert Command were incredulous about the Japanese Tianhuang's idea of ​​coming to Beijing.

However, the current source of intelligence is very reliable. The second-in-command of the communications corps of the Peking Garrison Division is a Red Alert spy, and this information came from the navy and Shanghai.

"Since the source of the information is reliable, we should first order the troops in Shanxi to prepare. Once we confirm that the Japs are heading to Beiping, we should immediately launch an attack on Beiping!"

"understand!"

At this time, not only the Red Alert Force, but the entire Japanese army was kept in the dark.

Of course, except for Iwane Matsui.

After all, it was Matsui Iwane who was in full contact with the navy, so he naturally knew that the Japanese general Tianhuang was coming to Shanghai.

However, although he knew it, Matsui Iwane did not inform the Beijing authorities that Tianhuang had changed his destination.

After all, in Matsui Iwane's eyes, Beiping is now the best false target to cover up the Tianhuang. Shinozuka Yoshio, who has just arrived, said that with the intelligence capabilities of the Ping'an County Security Corps, the information about the Tianhuang would have been delivered to Dagushan within two days of the Sixth Army entering the city.

And this is the best time to attract the attention of the Ping'an County Security Corps and delay the attack of the Ping'an County Security Corps!
The current Red Alert Force is indeed just as the Japanese army expected. Upon learning that the Japs' locusts are coming to Peiping, even the attack plan in the direction of Niangzi Pass has been postponed under Chen Xi's instructions.

Although the attack was delayed, the transportation work of the Red Alert Force's Transportation Bureau and Logistics Support Department never stopped.

In addition to Niangzi Pass, the Red Alert also transported a large amount of supplies to the transit base and Fengyang base.

The Fengyang base was responsible for defending the Huaihai area, while the transit base was the main force of the Red Alert's second phase of the offensive in North China.

But the battle at this time was not in Fengyang, nor in Niangzi Pass or Shandong.

At this time, the real main battlefield between China and Japan was in the south of Dagu Mountain.

On the Henan battlefield, when the Red Alert began to assemble its troops, the Japanese 12th Army, 15th Army, 17th Army, 5th Army, and Guards Army had already received orders to pursue the enemy to the southern part of Dagu Mountain. In addition, there were also Japanese troops sending reinforcements to Henan from Wuhan, Changsha and other directions.

However, the 12th Army was completely wiped out by the Red Alert forces during the attack, and the Guards were redeployed in Shanghai after landing.

Therefore, the only Japanese troops attacking the southern defense line of Dagu Mountain are the Japanese Fifth Army, Fifteenth Army, and Seventeenth Army, three reorganized army-level units, and other scattered troops.

Since the Fifth Army was a reinforced division of the Japanese Army, its commander was a veteran lieutenant general of the Japanese Army, and the former chief of staff of the North China Front Army, Yamashita Tomoyuki, who had just been promoted to general, the entire front line south of Dagu Mountain was under the command of Yamashita Tomoyuki.

Opposite the Japanese army was not the main force of the Red Alert, but a large and well-fortified militia force of the Red Alert.

The militia of the Red Alert Force is not the same as the militia of the Eighth Route Army.

Due to the shortage of equipment, the militia forces of the Eighth Route Army were usually only used as supplementary troops and local garrison armed forces, and their combat effectiveness was far behind that of the main forces of the Eighth Route Army.

However, the Red Alert militia has sufficient weapons and equipment. They are usually engaged in production and construction work, but during combat they can fully operate all the technical equipment of the Red Alert at this stage.

And these militiamen live here, so when they engage in defensive operations in this area, their combat effectiveness will not be lower than that of the main force of the Red Alert Force, and may even be slightly higher.

As the chief of staff of the Far North Front Army, Yamashita Tomoyuki did not rashly order his troops to attack Dagushan.

They had fought before the Eighth Route Army's Hundred Regiments Campaign, and his partner at the time, Terauchi Hisaichi, is still missing to this day, so Yamashita Tomoyuki decided to keep a low profile here.

At the very least, we should wait until all the troops arrive before launching an attack on Dagu Mountain.

"In just a few years, I didn't expect that the small Ping'an County Security Group would develop to this point."

When Yamashita Tomoyuki was the chief of staff of the North China Front Army, the Red Alert force was not large in size, but its combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

At that time, Yamashita Tomoyuki regarded the Red Alert Force as a small elite force similar to Yamamoto's Special Forces. Although such a force could play a great tactical value, Yamashita Tomoyuki, who was not optimistic about special operations, still did not upgrade his views on the Red Alert Force to the strategic level.

Today, the Ping'an County Security Corps has sufficient troops to exert pressure on the Japanese troops in the entire Chinese battlefield from three directions: the border between Shanxi and Henan, the Xu-Beng area, and the Zhengtai area.

This situation was really a bit fantastic for Yamashita Tomoyuki.

The Ping'an County Security Corps at that time was really just a regimental-level unit!

However, at this point, Yamashita Tomoyuki had no time to think about how the Ping'an County Security Corps developed. Anyway, the people in the intelligence department were all trash. Apart from knowing the names of a few senior members of the Ping'an County Security Corps, such as Zhang Shijie, they knew nothing else.

Even if you put the 10 standing committee members of the Red Alert in front of the Japanese, they wouldn't recognize them! That's right, the Japanese didn't even have a photo of Zhang Shijie.

This is the counter-espionage and protection capability of the Red Alert Force.

Inside the Red Alert Force, as various departments were busy preparing for the next step of operations, Chen Wenjing, Director of the Red Alert Force's Finance Department, was also deploying her own plan.

As a specialist in economics and the woman who holds the purse strings of the Red Alert, Chen Wenjing could not just sit there and watch others avenge Zhang Shijie while she did nothing.

So as early as when Zhang Shijie was just injured, Chen Wenjing led his commerce, economy, finance and other departments to start retaliatory actions against the Japanese army.

Different from Chen Xi, Zhang Ning, Zhou Jingren and others.

They used military means to inflict blows on the Japanese army, while Chen Wenjing used economic warfare.

And because of Zhang Shijie's previous immoral "preparation", Chen Wenjing seemed quite adept at launching economic warfare.

Chen Wenjing's attack on the Japanese devils was directed at the foundation of the entire Japanese economy - currency!

That is the Japanese yen.

The basic circulation principle of modern currency is to look at the current national credit of the country. Every time a country issues currency, it will strictly determine the issuance quantity according to the current situation.

Although there are players like the Bald-headed Kuomintang who reap the wealth of the people by over-issuing currency, usually no country is stupid enough to over-issue currency without restraint.

In other words, even if the Kuomintang over-issues currency, it is just trying to make money in this way.

But now the methods Chen Wenjing uses are extremely disgusting.

At this time, a huge amount of Japanese yen suddenly appeared in the ports, gateways and trading markets of various countries in the world. The people holding Japanese yen had different appearances, including Asians, Jews, Slavs, Angolans, and even black people!

These huge groups of people used the Japanese yen in their hands to purchase large quantities of various materials around the world. In the beginning, they only purchased various mineral resources, precious metals and other materials. Later on, it didn’t matter what the materials were. As long as you bought them, there would be someone who would buy them!
As expected, all of these people used Japanese yen.

All the halls in Blue Star also noticed that something was wrong.

The amount of Japanese yen circulating in the entire market increased by more than a hundred times in just a few days!
As a result, throughout the world of Bright Sword, the value of the Japanese yen began to plummet continuously, and the exchange rates with the currencies of various countries also began to fall sharply.

Of course, the economic experts from various branches of Blue Star were not fools. Seeing this situation, the banks in various branches began to refuse to accept Japanese yen and started selling off their Japanese yen reserves.

For the Japanese, selling at this time is tantamount to adding insult to injury.

However, the relationship between countries is maintained only by interests.

Selling the Japanese yen now does not mean any profit for them, it is just a way to cut losses.

During World War II, although the exchange rates of various countries' currencies fluctuated greatly depending on the region, the exchange rate of the US dollar to the Japanese yen was rarely lower than 1:100.

But now, after Chen Wenjing's move, 50,000 yen may not even be able to be exchanged for one dollar!

Originally, a large number of Japanese yen only appeared in China and surrounding areas, but this area is to a certain extent within the sphere of influence of the Japanese devils, and the increase in number is not too outrageous, and it will not have much impact on the entire world of Bright Sword.

But now it's not just in Asia, the Japanese yen has no purchasing power at all!

Of course, if you want to exchange dozens of kilograms of Japanese yen for currencies of other countries, it is still possible. After all, the value of the paper used to make so many Japanese yen is still worth some money.

Isn't it also useful to use it for burning fire?
The first group of Japanese who discovered this problem were the Japanese diplomats in various countries. After traveling abroad, some Japanese diplomats saw Japanese yen all over the ground in a foreign country and even thought they had returned home.

However, after the brief sense of intimacy wore off, they realized the seriousness of the problem.

"So many yen?! How come I didn't know Diguo was cooperating with this place?"

The first thing the Japanese diplomat thought of was that Japan had carried out large-scale economic cooperation here, but when he saw that the Japanese yen was everywhere, he had to give up this idea.

After all, no matter how much we strengthen cooperation, it is impossible to reach a point where it is literally everywhere on the streets!
So the Japanese diplomat took a closer look at the Japanese yen that was scattered on the ground.
Holy shit! It’s all true!

This time it’s a big deal!
While the Japanese troops in various directions were preparing for the attack, the Japs suddenly discovered that something big had happened to them.

The Japanese yen in the entire Bright Sword world has collapsed!

After receiving the news from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Japanese cabinet was completely stunned.

After such a long period of military construction, the Japanese's financial situation was already not optimistic. Now so many yen came out of nowhere. All the yen in Japan have now turned from the original currency into a piece of waste paper.

Although these devils all knew that in this case someone must be printing their ** in large quantities, who could blame them for printing something more real than the real thing?
Under such circumstances, the entire Japanese army will return to the era of barter.

This situation is fine in Japan, but if they need to purchase from abroad, their resources will be completely insufficient.

After all, Japan is just an island country. Even if the entire country is sunk, how many resources can it have?

What's more, these resources are not enough for their own use. They really can't bear to go out and exchange them for other things!

"Bakayarō! We must find out where these yen came from!"

As the Prime Minister of Japan, Hideki Tojo was very angry. The other party's move not only made them lose everything, but also plundered all their wealth.

In this operation, the only beneficiary was the Red Alert Force.

At the beginning of the operation, the huge amount of supplies purchased by the Red Alert with Japanese yen was the profit of this operation.

And the ones who paid for this were the Japanese.
