Fengxian Jiangshan

Chapter 787 Military Control

Shanghai is the financial center of the Far East. Not only China, but even Western countries regard this free city as the best place for financing, but suddenly, the channel for the free circulation of capital was cut off, and the incoming foreign exchange could not be exported. Go, the stock market fluctuates. It is conceivable that as soon as the market opens, countless people will sell stocks crazily. By then, these pieces of paper will really become a pile of waste paper.

This is definitely not a trivial matter. Just after Zhang Tinglan announced this order, the phones of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Presidential Palace, the Vice President's residence, and the hotel where Zhang Tinglan stayed were all off the hook, and people from all walks of life came to ask Brother Tao to speak.

Usually those gentle and elegant diplomats all showed hideous faces, joking, who doesn't know that financial capital is the invisible "government" of Western countries, and how many heads can bear the damage to these uncles? !

These people were aggressive and jumped up and down, but it was a pity that Zhang Tinglan ignored them at all. He was discussing countermeasures with Wang Shuhan, the governor of the central bank, and several financial experts.

When Zhang Tinglan was about to attack Shanghai Bund, Wang Shuhan had secretly drawn up an action plan, and now it was time for a showdown.

"Vice President, there are three levels of goals we want to achieve this time. The first level is to combat Western financial forces; the second level is to clear up all kinds of garbage forces in Shanghai; the third level is to establish a standardized Order. The whole action plan is like this, first close the foreign exchange market and the stock market to limit the incoming funds, then we open the stock market first, the stock price will inevitably plummet, leave the Western capital law arbitrage, wait until the right time, and then open the foreign exchange Business, "forcing" Western capital to leave. As long as this foreign black hand is cut off, the rest will be easy to deal with."

Zhang Tinglan nodded: "President Wang, have you expected how much money you can get from the Westerners this time?"

"At least it will be around 5 million yuan. Their capital in Shanghai is 10 billion yuan. The Shanghai stock market must be suppressed by at least half, or even two-thirds, to squeeze out the bubbles. But it can't be suppressed too hard. After all, the stock market can also serve the purpose of financing, which plays an important role for some Chinese companies, and the next step is to regulate the market.”

"Well. To get 20 million from the Westerners, the domestic investors will have to cut at least [-] billion. In addition to the inspection of problematic personnel, I estimate that at least [-] billion can be obtained this time. So important!" [

Speaking of this, Zhang Tinglan also showed a smug smile on his face.Next year will be the economic crisis in 1929. Zhang Tinglan will definitely make a fortune. With the 20 billion as a basis, and more than one billion US dollars from the US market, the investment of the entire Second Five-Year Plan will be ready.Moreover, the capital to build the three aircraft carrier battle groups is enough, and it is even said that with this money as a base, whether it is with Russia.It is still no problem to compete with Japan again.

This trip to Shanghai was indeed not in vain. Of course, this step must be achieved, and the immediate problems must be solved in order to ensure that this piece of fat can be eaten safely.

"Vice President, there is still a loophole that needs to be filled." Xu Jinghong said: "Foreign capital has come in. Some have been converted into Chinese yuan, and some are still foreign capital. Although Shanghai's financial market is developed, it is far from being regulated. There is still the possibility of escape, so I propose to control the foreign banks in the concession as well."

Xu Jinghong has worked in Fengtian Bank for more than eight years and is quite proficient in finance, so the proposal hits the nail on the head.Wang Shuhan also said: "Vice President, it is true that foreign-funded banks are a loophole, but the lease is still foreign after all. If we rashly enforce the law, will it cause international disputes? After all, closing a bank is not the same as arresting a few prisoners."

Zhang Tinglan also frowned.He pondered for a while and said: "If you don't do anything, don't care about these things since you have already torn your face. However, you must pay attention to skills in doing things. Let's start with the French. Aren't they selling drugs? Let's use this as a starting point point."

Drugs are something that everyone hates. Once a "government" gets involved with drugs, there will be no "justification". Take the British for example. They fought two Opium Wars, but they still want to promote it in China as trade. The purpose of war is to deceive people.

Holding Du Yuesheng in his hand, Zhang Tinglan knew all about the French drug trade, so he could use the banner of anti-drugs to control the French Concession, and then declare other concessions to enter a state of martial law, which made sense.

Of course, the big powers will definitely protest, and even jump and curse, but it doesn't matter, the Fengtian aircraft carrier battle group is not just for watching.If you don't know how to praise, you can toss with open swords and guns to see who is tougher.

After Zhang Tinglan made a decision, the order was passed on quickly. Immediately afterwards, groups of soldiers quickly marched into Shanghai. In the center of the storm, Shanghai Bund, countless ordinary people finally experienced the powerful force of the central government for the first time. , Even the foreigners who have settled in Shanghai for a long time are horrified.

The troops that marched into Shanghai this time were all wearing uniforms with special patterns, long and short, and even painted on their faces, as if they had crawled out of hell, fierce and aggressive.There were tanks driving the way on the ground, planes were even circling in the sky, and gunboats also appeared on the Huangpu River. It can be said that the sea, land and air were dispatched together, and the scale and momentum were beyond imagination.

The troops Zhang Tinglan sent were the Marine Corps, and the gang in Shanghai had all-hands-eyes. If ordinary troops were mobilized, they would have been able to get the information long ago.The Marine Corps is under the charge of Zhang Tingshu, which is equivalent to the troops in Zhang Tinglan's cuffs, absolutely reliable.

Moreover, the Marine Corps is stationed in East China, so it is convenient to mobilize.Zhang Tingshu was also gearing up for a long time. Since the establishment of the Marine Corps, the number of personnel has been continuously expanded, and it already has three brigades, and the equipment has been continuously updated. The troops have been replaced with the latest camouflage uniforms.

Just to show off his skills, after receiving the order, Zhang Tingshu ordered decisively that the whole army divided into three groups and marched into Shanghai.At the same time, the East China Sea Fleet also sent ships to block the mouth of the Yangtze River. Coupled with the Fengtian aircraft carrier outside, Shanghai is now under full control, and even a fly cannot fly out.

The marines walked into the urban area of ​​Shanghai quickly with sonorous steps. Zhang Tingshu had already received the order. He rushed directly to the French Concession, and he wanted to use the Gallic cock first.

At this time, the French Concession was already in chaos, and the Gallic Rooster was a famous usury empire. After the end of World War I, the domestic economy was in decline, and the foundation was already empty.The French rely more on financial arbitrage. For the French, Shanghai is of great value. They have invested huge sums of money here. In addition, the drug trade is also an important source of black gold, with tens of millions of capital flowing back to France every year. [

Originally, the French planned to raise the bubble in China's stock market and make a fortune, but unexpectedly, a large number of senior financial officials were arrested, and the stock market and foreign exchange market were all suspended.The keen French already know that this is definitely an action against foreign capital, and China wants to catch them all.

The French are also red-eyed. While actively putting pressure on China, they are also planning how to let capital escape safely.But at this moment, Zhang Tingshu led the marines to the outside of the French Concession.

The French military and police set up a cordon outside, and all the soldiers were armed and ready.However, in Zhang Tingshu's eyes, their behavior was just a joke.

"Tanks open the way, don't fire, if they dare not move, just crush them!"

With Zhang Tingshu's order, two tanks lined up and rushed towards the French cordon unceremoniously. Facing the impact of the steel monster, the French were all terrified. These behemoths are different from scratching an itch. They have no effect. Do they still have flesh and blood to fight against the tanks?

Just when the French were trembling, Zhang Tingshu asked his subordinates to shout loudly, asking the French to get out of the way, or they would be crushed.The tank roared, and it was getting closer and closer to the French, without the slightest pause.

These Frenchmen finally felt scared. A soldier threw his gun on the ground suddenly, and then turned around and ran. If there was one, there would be a second one. Grinded into parts.

Under the guidance of the tanks, the soldiers rushed into the French Concession. They entered the mansion road first and took control of the headquarters of Sanxin Company.Since Du Yuesheng had already explained the situation, they obtained the evidence of French drug trafficking without any effort.

Then Zhang Tingshu led his men and rushed directly to the patrol room. The French chief patrol, Fevori, was the backstage of Du Yuesheng's usual transactions.

Seeing the sudden attack of the squadron, the patrol house was still extremely astonished. No one would have thought that the squadron would dare to attack the French patrol house. Isn't this trying to provoke a dispute between the two countries!

The French still wanted to reason, but Zhang Tingshu had already ordered the muzzle of the tank to be aimed at the patrol house, and he would be killed on the spot if he dared to resist.

Such a domineering attitude from the Chinese side finally made the French succumb, and Fevori became a prisoner. Now things will be easier. Zhang Tingshu found a lot of evidence of illegal drug trafficking from the patrol room, and the amount was huge. , It is simply beyond imagination, not only in China, but also a large amount of drugs are sold to Europe, including France.

After mastering the witness and material evidence, the Chinese side completely took the initiative, and then all the concessions were forcibly taken over.China's public opinion offensive is also in full swing.

There have long been a large number of Chinese and foreign journalists gathered in Shanghai, wanting to know what happened. After Zhang Tingshu took control of the French Concession, a large amount of detailed evidence was disclosed. Windfall profits.

Not only the Chinese people have been harmed, even the French are not spared. The Chinese "government" will definitely crack down on drug crimes in an attitude of being responsible to mankind.

Zhang Tingshu made a strong oath to the reporters, but at the same time, a more important news came out. Zhang Tinglan informed the countries that in view of the severe situation in Shanghai, all areas, including the concession, were put under military control. (To be continued.
