Chapter 215 Dunkirk of the Free World
Jade is the fastest way for this army to obtain funds.⊙.
Although Yang Yuan himself was not interested in this hard stone, the increasingly wealthy Ming Dynasty and Chinese people from other countries liked it! Especially those rich people who were so empty that they married their wives, they were still reborn recently and forgot about the experience of not being able to eat during the war. They began to show off their wealth without any trouble. Jade, the oldest and most traditional method of showing off wealth, was so sought after. A few days ago, one was auctioned in Temasek and actually sold a destroyer.
Since they have so much money that they have nowhere to spend it, let’s take it out and sponsor the cause of Chief Yang’s friendly neighbors.
Moreover, some of these things are also popular in Europe and the United States. They can advertise more if they have nothing to do. For example, people like Monroe and Hepburn will wear more jade jewelry in the future, and they will probably still be able to make a lot of them.
Of course, Chief Yang himself must have a share in this business. He must have a return on his investment so much.
"The Head of State and you all have jointly established a jewelry company. Just like De Beers, you are responsible for raw materials and processing, we are responsible for sales and promotion, and we are responsible for half the profit. As for how you distribute it, it has nothing to do with us. In short, everyone will make money. And according to the Head of State, if this mine is controlled, it will be fine for a hundred years to be mined. Your descendants will basically be enough to eat."
Chen Hu said.
Li Zongren and his friends looked at each other, then smiled and nodded.
With their nods, a huge convoy appeared on the Yunnan-Burma Highway, a long queue of nearly 30,000 cars, which stretched for hundreds of kilometers, trucks, buses, military off-road vehicles, and even private cars that spontaneously came to help. These are Chinese merchants doing business in Assam and Bangladesh, as well as workers in the Assam oil field. Because the oil is cheap there, off-road cars are very popular there. In particular, the latest FJ40 launched by Kirin Automobile is a must-have for almost every family.
Well, this car actually had another name, but the Toyota automatic has been blown up and Toyota went bankrupt, so Kirin Automobile had to take over their sacred mission of invading the United States. This completely identical fj40 is of course also popular in the United States, especially when Monroe drove it in a classic white dress, it was even more crazy.
On the morning of the third day, the first car of this huge convoy drove into Kunming. The last car had just arrived in Dehong. The endless convoy not only coveted people from Hongshawadi along the way, but also shocked the people of Yunnan, especially when they knew that these cars were almost all produced by the Ming Dynasty, it was not just as shocked.
"I want to go with them!"
At the top of Kunming city, a middle-aged man wearing a general's uniform said with a wry smile.
At the city gate below him, more than a dozen fj40s were honking in. These rabbit-like small off-road vehicles were much faster than other trucks and buses. They arrived in the first batch, but they had to register their identities in the city to recruit people according to their allocation. Otherwise, most of the first batch of people would be female relatives. How did they abduct people? In fact, there are indeed many such spontaneous people who came here for this purpose, because under Yang Feng's publicity, Chinese generally do not intermarry with natives, but the number of women among Chinese is relatively small, and older bachelors all expect to coax their wives home this time!
These people who traveled to Kunming are stupid. Many people sneaked to the towns along the way and deceived the little girls with sweet words.
"Master, what should we do?"
The general asked one person next to him.
Xi Luhan, Yunnan Province, sighed and said, "In the past, the trees fall and the money scattered, let's go their separate ways. If they are willing to leave, we are willing to stay. Everyone bet on their lives, don't stop anyone, maybe we still have a day to beg for them!"
He had actually received a letter from his cousin urging him to take action, but he couldn't do it. There were hundreds of thousands of troops here, so he only had a few security groups to do it. Not to mention him, even the local social labor armed forces that already occupied a lot of places did not dare to come out to provoke this huge army. On the way Li Bai came here, there were several local social labor armed forces trying to block it, but it turned out to be pushed directly.
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of large bombers above his head flew by and soon disappeared into the sky in the north. These were to bomb the bridges along Qujing to Kunming, and also warned the Xinhua Army that the two places were less than 200 kilometers apart, and even if they were mountain roads, it would not take long to reach here. All bridges, passes and other traffic nodes must be blown up to the maximum extent to delay the Xinhua Army.
Fortunately, the fully mechanized transportation was much faster than the Xinhua Army's legs. As the first batch of refugees loaded into cars and turned to transport them to the distant Assam, the troops stationed in Kunming also began to retreat on foot, leaving the main Seventh Army of the Guangxi clique to be responsible for the rear guard, and other units quickly retreated to Chuxiong.
Lu Han and his subordinates did not stop or participate, as if they had not seen it, and he did whatever they should do. He himself didn't even go out, and he was at home and was waiting for these people to finish their journey.
While the troops continued to leave Kunming, a steady stream of cars continued to arrive in Kunming, and then pulled as many refugees as possible to go south. At this time, not only the refugees who came with Li Bai, but also those who gathered in Yunnan, Guizhou, Hunan, and even northern Sichuan, would also be transported to Assam. The total number of these refugees is roughly estimated to be between 700,000 and 800,000.
Considering that the transportation capacity may not be enough, Yang Feng was searching for cars all over the world, including those that Pakistani and Assam were used by him, and even Chinese from Honshawarth joined in. Anyway, everyone knows that performing well at this time is to support Yang. Usually, if you serve him well, you will have real benefits. Jinnah even ordered that all military vehicles in Dongba be transferred to the Ming army for transporting refugees.
This guy should have died of illness at this time in history, but Yang Feng will certainly not let this happen again. The political situation in Pakistan in later generations was mainly because he died too early and before he could straighten the country, the founding father of Pakistan died of illness and replaced him Ali Khan, who did not have the prestige of him, eventually led to the fact that this country liked to play a coup for a long time after that.
With the joining of the Pakistani army, the second batch of more than 20,000 cars of various types soon drove onto this long transportation line.
At the same time, the ships that transported the fuel for these vehicles went upstream along the Irrawaddy River and transported a large amount of gasoline and diesel to Mizhina. The air force's transport planes flew oil to the Dali Supply Station. The transportation line was more than 1,000 kilometers long. Even if these cars carried spare fuel before leaving Assam, at least four or five refueling points were needed along the way.
In short, Yuan Yang wanted to transport all the refugees away at once. He wanted to use his huge strength to show the world the real energy of a mobilization of an empire.
"This is Dunkirk in a free world. They once embarked on this long road because they were unwilling to surrender to Fais, Japan. Today they are still unwilling to surrender to others, and once again embarked on this road that has been soaked in their blood. Although we cannot predict whether they will have a day to step on their own land again, this is the only thing we can do for them. We are like the British people who stood across the Strait of Dover in 1940 and prayed that they can safely embark on the land of the free world."
Chief Yang said in a heartbreaking tone on the radio.
Although this kind of influences Comrade Li’s feelings for him, fortunately, everyone belongs to different camps and has no feelings at all.
He had to build momentum for the next God's turning point, beautify these people as much as possible, and start his propaganda machine around the world, so that everyone knew that in the far east, among the mountains and ridges in the inland Asia, there was still a group of people embarking on the road to freedom. They had pursuers behind them, and the road ahead was long, and they had to be humiliatedly supervised by a group of troops who had worked with the Japanese, through a piece of land they had liberated with their blood and life with their blood and life with their Mi-English Allies.
They were exhausted and lacked food and clothing. They were surrounded by millions of elderly, weak, women and children. They were surrounded by unfriendly eyes. Behind them were the guns of the Social Labor Party. Their destination was thousands of kilometers away...
People in the free world, shouldn’t you do anything for these comrades who once fought side by side?
Well, his little stars have already started to raise funds for these people in Europe and the United States, including the newly established West German government, which has also taken out 10 million US dollars from the aid given to them by the Americans to provide humanitarian assistance to these refugees. Of course, these are secondary. The important thing is to establish the image of these people and at the same time, as much as possible, what the Honshawardi government is, will soon give a fixed impression of who is better and who is worse in European and American public opinion.
In this way, when these refugees are hurt by the Honshawadies, it will be completely just for their relatives to retaliate.
As for the former, it is inevitable that Li Bai will not need to be behind the scenes. The chaotic situation in northern Myanmar is not something that the Hongshawaddy government can truly control. The bandits and local chieftains dominate the other side, but they just listen to the Wu Nu government in name, but they are actually messy warlords. Anyway, the mountains and forests are dense, and even the Wu Nu's army can't do anything to them. In the past, vehicles passing through this highway were robbed from time to time, not to mention that when these fat sheep are everywhere, the other side is a group of refugees driven out of their own country. It would be abnormal if they could hold it back.
