Chapter 558
The original issue of refugees in Shanghai was a huge powder keg.
Now, Du Yuesheng and the Japanese Mei organs work together to add fuel to this powder barrel, set fire, and do things in a big way.
Obviously, the result was that it exploded with a bang, and it was a series of death explosions.
In just one day, all the public opinion forces in Shanghai were like crazy, and they continued to make rounds of appeals and even pressure on Yang Fan and even the Chongqing authorities, demanding that the Gaomi government and even the Chongqing authorities effectively solve the resettlement of more than 4 million refugees in the concession.
The panic refugees were also about to go crazy, marching and demonstrating all day long, shouting slogans, surrounding relief officials, going to the municipal government and concession authorities to petition, and even began physical conflicts with police and officials who came to maintain order.
At this time, if someone takes the lead in using violence, it will easily turn into an uncontrollable riot of smashing, looting, burning and burning.
This wind soon blew into the Huben Army stationed in the Chinese region. Journalists such as the Central Daily News, Shenbao, Ta Kung Pao, and Nanhua Daily came to interview Yang Fan and reported on the tragic situation of Shanghai refugees in large quantities.
"Under pressure" and "taking advantage of hot spots", the official mouthpiece of the Chinese Hu Benjun, "Gaomi People's Daily", also began to reprint relevant content.
Immediately afterwards, the people of Gaomi began to "spontaneously organize" march and petition, strongly demanding that Yang Fan and Gaomi authorities, in the national spirit of one side in trouble, vigorously rescue the Shanghai refugees who are in danger.
Driven by waves of rhythm, the entire Chinese Hu Ben Army defense zone began to boil. It is human nature to sympathize with the weak, especially in this time when the country is in trouble.
"What's going on? How come so many newspapers are suddenly rushing to report the same thing? And so many petitions?"
This wind quickly hit Chairman Jiang. As soon as he picked up the newspaper, almost every newspaper took "resettlement of refugees to the Gaomi authorities" as the front page headline, and there were official documents sent by concessions, newspapers, celebrities and other aspects.
Lin Wei quickly replied: "Committee, according to the current understanding, it should be like this: in order to resettle refugees, Du Yuesheng, Pan Gongzhan and others contacted Yang Fan through channels, and then Yang Fan agreed to resettle 6,000 refugees.
After this incident spread, it caused panic and dissatisfaction among the refugees, and then Japan took this opportunity to fan the flames.
I guess he thought that Yang Fan was not able to support so many people and wanted to go to trouble, so he simply brought all three or four million refugees to Yang Fan through public pressure!
This move is indeed very insidious. Yang Fan agreed, but there was not so much food. If he didn't agree, it would have a great impact on his reputation."
"Oh, this Yang Fan is really good at making trouble. He beat the Japanese devils a few days ago and recovered a total of 10 county towns in one go. Now, this incident happened again in just two days!"
Chairman Jiang raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "What do you think Yang Fan will deal with it?"
Lin Wei pondered: "I guess he will increase his efforts and increase the quota to 50,000 or 60,000?"
Chairman Jiang shook his head and said, "You underestimate Yang Fan's appetite too much, and he is a good figure in calculating and never fights a battle without confidence.
On the surface, the Japanese are trying to cause trouble in this matter, but who knows whether this is a mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole behind it, and it is simply a game under Yang Wanbu?"
"Ah, what the commissioner means is that he wants to accept it in full? No way? How is this possible!"
Lin Wei's pupils shrank slightly and said in surprise: "The current population in Yang Fan's jurisdiction is at least 7 million. If all the refugees gathered in Shanghai are accepted, wouldn't they have to be at least 12 million?
Can he survive with so many mouths? He occupied a lot of territory, but most of them were mountainous land and saline-alkali land by the sea, and there was not much fertile land at all!"
Chairman Jiang smiled and said, "Others must not do it, but Yang Fan may not!
He has an extremely crazy obsession with the population, and he has been constantly absorbing the population over the years.
But when did you hear that there was a shortage of food in his jurisdiction?
What's more, he now has such a big industry in the United States, with six ships with 10,000 tons of freighters alone, and every month there are 10,000 tons of giant ships to Qingdao.
So, I don't think the food problem will be a problem for him."
"The commissioner is wise and humble, and he is ashamed of his humble duties!"
Lin Wei nodded solemnly, only to think what Chairman Jiang said was very reasonable. After pondering for a moment, he exclaimed: "Yang Fan's ambition should not be underestimated. Does he still want to compete with Japan in a corner?"
Chairman Jiang exhaled, "Japan is now in short supply of war. Not only should he be in a heavy defense against the Soviet Union and guard the local area, but now he has occupied so much Chinese territory. The remaining main mobile forces are placed in Jiangxi, Hunan, and Yang Fan is not at the moment.
That's why Yang Fan gave him enough time to develop, but it only lasts that. At most, Japan will launch a general attack on him in just one year, and everything will be futile at that time!
For this war, the Japanese devils prepared for decades. No matter how capable Yang Fan is, he is just a grass-headed king. How easy is it to block a car with a mantis arm!"
"Suoga! That's great! Now there is chaos in Gaomi, Shandong!"
"This guy who seeks fame finally shot himself in the foot!"
"Baga! Yang Fan's maritime business line must be cut off as soon as possible, and he must not be allowed to import food from abroad!"
"Don't worry, the Great Japanese Empire has officially proposed a diplomatic note. Even if the Americans continue to indulge it, it will not work. Without the permission of the Imperial Japanese Navy, a grain of food cannot enter Qingdao."
"Yo Xi! As long as those victims cannot survive and riots occur, the Chinese Tiger Army will definitely be in trouble!"
Kagesaki, Inukai Ken, Shimizu Dongsan, Suga Yoshijiro, Nishiyoshi and others thought they had succeeded in their treacherous plans, and they all celebrated each other, and were so proud.
Gaomi Yang Mansion.
"Brother Fan, you are finally back!"
Seeing Yang Fan driving home, Wu Qian hurriedly met her.
Looking at Wu Qian's sad face, Yang Fan asked knowingly: "What, is there anything wrong?"
Wu Qian forced a smile and said, "Brother Fan, I have nothing to do, I am not anxious about the victims. Now there are all things in the newspapers, and I am always chased and asked by reporters from the newspaper when I go out. It's so sad!"
At this time, the father-in-law Wu Rongbang also came over and interrupted, "This matter can be big or small. If handled well, it will be a great thing that benefits the country and the people. If handled well, a landmine will cause fire!
Xiaofan, I know you have always had your own way of doing things, but this matter can’t be delayed anymore. You must have an explanation as soon as possible, otherwise it will be very unfavorable to your reputation!”
