"However, if you want to recruit experts, you must have funds. Just watch." The wasp smiled innocently and stretched out his hand for money.
Shen Hao was not stingy and directly asked someone to give him a bank deposit certificate for ten thousand dollars.
"Don't worry, with this money, I can find you any number of experts."
Ma Feng's confidence increased greatly. Many masters of this era were very poor, and not all of them came from wealthy families.
After saying that, the wasp spurred his horse and rode away.
Looking at Ma Feng's back, Shen Hao immediately accelerated and rushed to Qing City. Now that Cao Shaolin was dead, Cao Ying would definitely take action, so Shen Hao had to send troops to support Pucheng.
At the same time, Cao Ying also received news of his son's death.
Not only that, the colonel commander Zhang Yi, whom he had favored, actually led his troops in mutiny.
He suddenly became furious.
"Damn it, my great uncle, Zhang Yi, this ungrateful and heartless bastard, actually betrayed me."
"What should we do, Marshal?"
Although Cao Ying was a brigade commander, he liked people to call him Marshal.
"What else can I do? Gather the troops and beat the bastard up. Otherwise, people will think I'm easy to bully.
Cut that bastard Zhang Yi into pieces for me!"
"Yes, Marshal."
Originally, Cao Ying was going to rest in Shitou City for two days, but he didn't expect Zhang Yi to suddenly rebel.
There were many cases of soldier mutinies among warlords, and most of them were caused by the inability to pay their salaries.
But since Cao Ying became the commander of the Third Mixed Brigade, he massacred several counties, and his soldiers will not be short of military pay for the time being.
Cao Ying currently doesn’t know why the mutiny happened.
The spy sent by Shen Hao to monitor Cao Ying also got the news first.
Shen Hao directly asked Li Yunlong to send troops to support Pucheng.
When he heard that there was another battle, Li Yunlong was so excited that he couldn't sleep and wanted to set off immediately.
96. Millions of dollars to buy arms
Back to Qing City.
Shen Hao was in a good mood.
This time, not only did he incite Zhang Yi to rebel, but he also obtained a regiment's worth of troops and equipment.
Not only that, there is also the wealth of the entire Pucheng~.
From Boss Liu's bank alone, more than 100,000 silver dollars and valuable antiques, calligraphy and paintings were seized.
As well as the wealth of other gentry and the wealth of ordinary people's families.
It has to be said that Cao Shaolin is professional when it comes to extorting money.
The total amount of funds is about 500,000 oceans.
Shen Hao also had 58 yuan in cash and opium paste worth 23 yuan.
However, Shen Hao was still very conflicted about this opium paste.
Shen Hao, who grew up under the red flag, was also disgusted by this, but if he was asked to exchange this for money, what was the difference between him and those who sold opium.
Shen Hao couldn't make it, and it was difficult to burn. If the opium worth hundreds of thousands of dollars was burned, the whole county would probably be excited.
It feels like a pity to throw it away and it's useless to keep it.
However, Shen Hao thought about it and decided to keep this thing for future use.
When so much opium is burned, it will be the best opportunity to shock people and win their hearts.
Shen Hao left 98 yuan and used yuan to buy arms.
Fortunately, there are many foreigners in Guangdong Province, and there are still a lot of arms trade.
Shen Hao did not expect that the old man of country D still had some stock, but they were all light weapons.
Shen Hao bought 60 Mauser rifles for yuan each.
It cost six hundred thousand dollars.
A box gun, also known as a Mauser pistol, costs twenty-five dollars each, and there are five hundred of them.
One US dollar can be exchanged for 2.4 oceans, which is 3 oceans!
A mortar costs three thousand oceans, and Shen Hao has 50 of them which means 15 oceans.
Each light machine gun cost 1,200 yuan, and Shen Hao purchased ten of them.
The rest of the money was used to buy bullets and artillery shells.
Spending millions of dollars at a time, with such a huge amount of money, Shen Hao directly became the most distinguished guest of the elder from Country D.
Qing City is close to the sea. The old man of D State personally drove a warship to transport arms to Shen Hao.
Looking at the old German warships, Shen Hao felt very jealous.
Becker specializes in arms and is backed by the military of country D.
"Shen, you are our most distinguished guest. I really want to call you my friend. To commemorate our friendship, I will give you a good gift."
Looking at the bearded man in front of him, Shen Hao was filled with disdain.
Are you really our friend? You're going to give Qingdao to me?
"Oh Becker what?" Shen Hao said in English;
"I'll give you ten boxes of Type 24 hand grenades."
Damn, what did Shen Hao think it was?
So Shen Hao took out the melon-shaped grenade.
"What do you think of my grenade?"
After saying that, Shen Hao knocked it hard and threw it out.
boom!
Great power!
Flowers bloomed on the sea.
Becker's eyes lit up and he said in surprise: "Oh, Shen, my friend, this grenade is really great.
Not only is the duration shorter, but the power is also twice as strong as before. Where did you get it?"
Due to the competition for land and resources, there are minor frictions among countries, but they are all enduring it, knowing in their hearts that there will be a war sooner or later.
Nowadays, European countries are actively preparing for arms and working hard on research and development in private.
This grenade is a good thing.
Shen Hao said: "This is the latest model of grenade, it is very valuable, if you want it, I can give you a few, but you have to pay the corresponding price."
Becker said: "How about giving you a field gun worth 7 dollars?"
Shen Hao shook his head and said, "It's too cheap. You know that developing a new weapon costs a huge amount of money. I have a ready-made one that can be used directly.
What do you think? "
Becker nodded, feeling that Shen Hao had said a lot.
"How about those two Krupp FK.96n/A field guns? They are very maneuverable."
Shen Hao shook his head and said, "Forget it. Since Mr. Becker is not interested, I will look for the Eagle Country and France. The Eagle Country is very interested."
Becker said hurriedly: "Shen, my dear friend, business can be discussed, why are you in such a hurry.
How about three Krupp FK.96n/A field guns plus ten Maxims? Ten boxes of shells, and a million rounds of ammunition."
Shen Hao thought for a moment and said, "I don't have a car yet. Think about it, I am a brigade commander after all. It would be embarrassing if I didn't have a car."
"How about adding a Ford?"
Shen Hao smiled and said, "Deal."
Ten heavy machine guns cost 2.5 oceans each, which means oceans.
An imported Ford car costs 4 yuan.
The little emperor Puyi in the palace bought it at the same price.
80 yuan for one thousand rounds of bullets, one million rounds of bullets is about yuan.
Three FK.96n/A field guns cost 20 yuan.
That’s about 35 oceans.
Shen Hao felt that he had made a fortune by exchanging a box of melon grenades for so much money.
Becker also felt that he had made a fortune, as the profit from arms was 300%.
Moreover, he also got the latest melon grenade.
This is a grenade from World War II, which was definitely ahead of its time during World War I.
In Becker's opinion, this thing would be more valuable if it were developed by the military.
If the military were to develop it itself, the cost would be at least 60 oceans, or about marks.
· ···Request flowers· ·····
It may not even be developed.
(1 US dollar is equal to 4.2 marks, 2.4 silver dollars to one US dollar)
As long as you hand in the melon grenade, you will not only get a bonus but also an increase in honor.
Both of them laughed happily and felt that they had made a profit.
"Shen, my dear friend, I like working with you and hope you can go further." Becker is very familiar with the domestic situation.
Shen Hao said: "As long as you support me, Becker, we will have more transactions in the future."
Becker's eyes lit up and he said, "Great! I hope we can work together again next time."
Then Becker boarded the warship and waved goodbye.
This time, Shen Hao pulled back three field guns, and Li Yunlong couldn't stop smiling.
With the equipment, he dares to fight anyone.
Moreover, Shen Hao also has his own artillery, with one platoon divided into two.
However, the FK.96n/A field gun has a range of only five kilometers.
. ... .......
But it has strong mobility and is simply invincible in battles between warlords.
In this era, warlords had no idea what trenches were.
After getting the weapons and equipment, Shen Hao ordered Li Yunlong to support Zhang Yi immediately.
Li Yunlong said: "Why don't we surround them?"
When Cao Ying attacked Zhang Yi, we surrounded them from behind, and after a round of artillery fire, their morale was broken.
Shen Hao asked, "Can Zhang Yi bear it?"
Li Yunlong said: "Give him ten heavy machine guns and twenty Maxim mortars, and teach him how to dig trenches. He should have no problem holding out for a month."
Shen Hao said: "Okay, you are good at this, so go ahead and do it."
"Don't worry, it's no problem. It will take Cao Ying several days to mobilize the army."
Shen Hao found himself poor again. He only had 100,000 yuan left, which was not enough to spend.
Sure enough, it was just as Li Yunlong expected.
It took Cao Ying seven days to mobilize the troops stationed in various places.
