After Tang Cheng said so much, the expressions of the two people opposite him also changed, and one of them could no longer control the joy in his heart. "The factory is a place to train skilled workers and technicians, and it is also an opportunity for your people to be exposed to the latest industrial equipment and processes. As long as you get the industrial machine, you can produce the industrial equipment needed domestically in Myanmar according to the process. This is why I mentioned the Thirty-six Strategies just now, because it requires tacit cooperation."
"Of course, my efforts are not in vain. Your workers and technicians must help us train workers and technicians for corresponding positions while working in Myanmar. But you can rest assured that there will be no heavy industry in Myanmar. We will only develop light industry and textiles." Enterprise, this kind of labor-intensive industry. Myanmar has more than 10 million people and is a country of mixed ethnic groups. It is impossible for us to deal with all the local people in Myanmar at once, so we need to establish this kind of labor-intensive enterprise. To divide them.”
"Myanmar is an agricultural country. It used to make profits by exporting minerals. Unfortunately, minerals are non-renewable resources. Moreover, the current international mineral prices are set by Westerners. At this time, it is undoubtedly profitable to export minerals. It is a free opportunity for Westerners to make money, so Myanmar’s mining industry will not be export-oriented in the future." As Tang Cheng spoke, he picked up the pencil on the table and marked several locations on the map. “These countries in South Asia do not lack mineral resources, they just lack the capital and technology to exploit them.”
"One of my partners is an American-German. As the war in Europe continues, anyone with a brain can see that Germany's defeat is a foregone conclusion. According to our analysis, neither the Soviet Union nor the United States and Britain will allow it. Germany has re-emerged after the war, so dividing Germany is the only option. Once the war in Europe comes to an end, my partners will enter Europe through their connections with the British royal family to purchase equipment and technology from bankrupt companies, and these are precisely the It’s what the country needs.”
Tang Cheng said so much in one breath, and the two people opposite him were already immersed in extreme joy, because according to the meaning revealed in Tang Cheng's words, Tang Cheng hoped to have good relations with Yan'an. Moreover, once these arrangements of Tangcheng in Myanmar are truly launched, they will be a great help to the country. "I've told you everything I can do. Now, it's time for me to make my request!" Noticing the joy on the other person's face, Tang Cheng paused for a moment before continuing.
"If these plans of mine are launched in Myanmar, a large number of manpower will be needed as backup. The large number of manpower I am talking about must be pure Chinese, because I do not trust the local people in Myanmar. When the expeditionary force first entered Myanmar to fight, At that time, the people who helped the Japanese chase and kill the retreating expeditionary force were the Burmese locals. They saw that the Japanese could not stand it any longer, so they started to help the British. These guys who are like wallflowers, I It’s not needed.”
"At the Southwest Associated University in Kunming, I have been secretly sponsoring many students and teachers since 2 years ago. At least half of these people have decided to go to Myanmar for development. But this is not enough. I still need More students and teachers, even literate old academics. Among the more than 10 million people in Myanmar, the literacy rate is less than 10%, but even this 10% is a million people. We want to control Myanmar, the literacy rate We must improve, become educated and have a vision, so that we can accept new things more easily.”
"I have several cleaning forces with a total number of more than 6,000 people in northern Myanmar. Their only task is to drive the locals from all over northern Myanmar southward. The Japanese army has not officially surrendered yet, so my people can still I am using the name of the Japanese army to do things, but the situation in Myanmar is changing rapidly. Once the British are free, many of the arrangements I am making now will have to be suspended, which is very detrimental to my plan. Therefore, I need manpower. , military personnel who can be directly put into use.”
"Mountain operations are different from plain operations. Six thousand people are enough, but I lack grassroots commanders and special units, such as medical corps, artillery, communications corps, and officers at the battalion and company level. I know that the government only gave you the Eighth Route Army. Three is the designation, but your actual strength is probably more than three armies. I also have some design drawings of light weapons. As long as the equipment is in place, they can be put into production. After your military personnel enter Myanmar, they can also New weapons are subject to actual combat evaluation.”
"I still have a large amount of American equipment, including large-caliber howitzers and heavy weapons and equipment such as tanks and armored vehicles, as well as the bazooka individual rocket launchers and portable walkie-talkies newly invested by the US military in the European battlefield. Your military personnel After entering Myanmar, you can get close contact with these new weapons and equipment. After obtaining specific data, you can take them back to the country for imitation or even upgrading." There is another profound meaning hidden in Tang Cheng's words, just looking at the other two The reaction seemed not to understand the deeper meaning of Tangcheng's words.
When Tang Cheng saw this, he stopped talking any further. He revealed so much inside information at once, and Yan'an needed to digest it. That night, an underground party secret contact point in the south of Chongqing took the risk to send the compiled information to Yan'an by phone. Yan'an did not expect to receive a telegram of such length. After a while of busy work, the translated telegram was sent to a cave dwelling. Half an hour later, a secret meeting began, with the same number of people attending the meeting.
"Have you read it all? This was just sent by the Chongqing contact point half an hour ago. This Tangcheng is playing a big game! According to the current situation, Tangcheng has passed the high-level officials of the British Army in Myanmar. , got the opportunity to control the development of northern Myanmar. Although this opportunity may be temporary, once the British are free, they will still support agents loyal to them among the local people in Myanmar to manage Myanmar according to their previous ideas. "
"So, what Tangcheng has to do now is to seize the time and firmly control the northern Myanmar area before the British react. Then create conflicts or even wars within Myanmar, and they will have the opportunity to go south to Yangon and take advantage of them. By going to Yangon Port, Tangcheng’s big game has been completely revitalized. This is the situation. What we will discuss next is whether to support Tangcheng and whether to agree to his request and support military personnel in northern Myanmar!"
Yan'an's analysis is very accurate, and they have already understood the difficulties Tangcheng is currently facing. At the same time, in the Nan'an Villa in Chongqing, a group of the same number of people were also discussing Tangcheng. After Tang Cheng returned to Chongqing this time, although he stayed in the military camp, his continuous meetings with various people in the city were not deliberately concealed or blocked. South Bank Villa has also received relevant reports, but they only learned that Tangcheng is secretly recruiting people.
"What do you think about the matter in Tangcheng?" The chairman of the committee, who was wearing a long robe, looked a little thin, but everyone present was always cautious in their hearts, for fear that they might offend him by saying the wrong thing. As Tang Cheng's elder and biggest supporter, the bureau leader was naturally present. He didn't know the content of the meeting. When he heard Tang Cheng's name mentioned in the Chairman's words, he immediately looked at the Central Committee subconsciously. The two brothers. The bureau chief's judgment was very keen, and the people who reported Tangcheng to the chairman were the two brothers of Zhongtong.
"Brother Yu Nong, what's wrong with you? Could it be that Tangcheng is secretly recruiting gangs, and shouldn't we pay attention to this?" Zhongtong is indeed an expert in conspiracy, and he immediately labeled him as recruiting gangs. To Tangcheng. Although they knew that what the Chairman hated the most was cliques in private, the bureau chief did not get angry on the spot, and there was not even the slightest hint of anger in his expressions. This made the two central commanders a little disappointed.
The bureau chief did not fall for the verbal provocations from the two central commanders. Seeing that the bureau chief did not speak, the two felt disappointed and could only follow the previously agreed steps to explain why they were paying attention to Tangcheng. "The abandoned military camp originally occupied by the search team has long been turned into a black market! We suspected that a batch of materials lost by the Anti-Smuggling Department flowed into the market from the black market in this military camp, so we sent people to sneak into this black market to investigate .”
"Because of the relationship between the search team and Tangcheng, and the military camp and the land were purchased by Tangcheng very early, Tangcheng naturally became the main target of our investigation. After our investigators disguised themselves and entered the black market in the military camp , at first no contact was found between Tang Cheng and people in the black market, but as the investigation deepened, our investigators found that Tang Cheng had been meeting various people in the backyard of the military camp black market in the past few days, and the number It’s huge.”
In order to deal with Tangcheng, Zhongtong spent a lot of money this time. The list they took out was full of names. The bureau chief remained calm. After the chairman read the list and handed it to him, he patiently looked through the list. "What does this mean? This is Chongqing, the capital of the country. He is a layman who is unemployed at home. Is it possible that he can have an affair with a Japanese puppet in Chongqing? Don't forget what he did before!"
The words of the bureau chief made the two Zhongtong officials look bad. Seeing this, the others kept silent because they could not afford to offend either the military commander or the Zhongtong commander. "You just said that these people in Tangcheng were gathering together to form a gang! Then did you investigate the people on the list? Black market dealers, brothel madams, and the unsatisfactory leader Pao Ge, what do you believe you can do with these people? matter?"
