Warlords: I just made a little fortune, but I didn’t build a country.

At the end of November, the Daqian Kingdom lost its orthodox court, and the Daqian Dynasty, which had ruled the Daqian Kingdom for more than 11 years, came to an end.

More than thirty sons of Zhou Yangbo were slaughtered by various noble families, leaving only eight. These eight were controlled by the eight noble families respectively, and they used the emperor to control the princes.

but!

Once there are too many emperors, they will become worthless.

Therefore, the role of these eight people became an excuse for the eight major families to make money and seize territories. They said that they were orthodox and began to seize territories and fight for resources, which made the Japanese who were supposed to invade Jiangbei fall into contemplation.

"Your Excellency, Commander."

The Guizi Major's personal guard officer came to the 11th Front Army Commander Kamiki Takuto and said, "Now that the Daqian Kingdom's court has collapsed and various forces are fighting for power, it is the best time for us to send troops to take over Jiangbei."

"The Daqian court has Jiangbei Province, Dong Province, An'an Province, Changnan Province, Fuxia Province, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province, and Shanglu City, which has been occupied by our Great East Ocean Empire. It owns 6 provinces and 11 city. As long as our 6th Front Army takes these provinces, most of the southern part of Daqian will fall into the hands of our Great East Ocean Empire."

Listening to the words of the royal guard, Kamiki Takuto's heart was also very hot.

but!

Reason eventually triumphed over desire. Although the Daqian court collapsed, the most powerful faction in Daqian, the Qin family, was not affected at all. In addition, the Sixth Front Army had been defeated in succession in the northern region, with a loss of no less than 10 troops.

In addition, the task given to the 11th Front Army by the military was to keep its troops in place, defend Shanglu, and cooperate with the powerful naval force to firmly control Shanglu. As for other things, there was no need for the 11th Front Army to take action, as the Qiannan General Army would take care of the old members of the Daqian court.

but!

Looking at the pieces of fat meat on the map, Kamiki Takuto really couldn't help it!

"Your Excellency Commander!"

The guard officer looked at Shang Mu Takuto and said, "My army has arrived in Jiangbei. With just one order from you, we can take over this wealthy place. This is one of the most prosperous provinces in Daqian. If we take it over, the money we will get will be an astronomical figure."

"beat!"

Finally, he was overwhelmed by desire. At the thought of being able to march to Jiangbei and sweep the entire provincial capital, Kamiki Takuto's eyes were filled with passion.

Shanglu alone brought Shangmu Takuto a profit of 3000 million yen, not to mention the prosperous Jiangbei area, which is the first economic province of Daqian Kingdom.

"Hi Yi!"

After Takuto Kamiki issued the order, the five infantry divisions in the Jiangbei area began to advance, and the Jiangbei area had now become the territory of the Lei family, one of the eight great families.

Without the defense of the behemoth imperial court, the Japanese army was able to capture cities and strongholds along the way. The 40 new troops in the hands of the Lei family also began to fight a fierce battle with the Japanese, but without the support of the imperial court, the combat power of these 40 new troops could only be exerted at half.

"brothers."

The commander of the 23rd Corps of the New Army looked at his soldiers and shouted, "The elder of the Lei family said that if you kill one Japanese soldier, you will be rewarded 10 silver dollars. If you kill ten Japanese soldiers, you will be rewarded 200 silver dollars. There is no upper limit."

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

In order to stop the Japanese advance, the Lei family finally came up with a plan, which was to lure them with benefits.

Under the temptation of huge sums of money, the Lei family took out 500 million yuan to restart the military factory, allowing the Jinling Military Factory to operate again, and the army on the front line had logistical guarantees.

The 40 troops on the front line were finally able to resist the Japanese advance under the temptation of huge sums of money, white rice, and constant logistical support.

The 11th Front Army had 17 infantry divisions and three armored divisions, which were divided into three armies and marched towards the Jiangbei Provincial Government, the Anhui Provincial Government, and the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provincial Government respectively.

The families that controlled the three provincial capitals were the Lei family, the Wang family, the Ye family, and the Chen family. The four major families united together and had a total of 100 million new army troops. They invested tens of millions of funds into the Jinling Military Factory and started a war with the Japanese 11th Front Army.

As for the Japs' Qiannan General Army, it was currently finishing up its operations in the Eastern Province Government.

The new army of the Eastern Province lost the support of the court, and the five major army corps were defeated across the board. The Japanese Qiannan Army quickly occupied the Eastern Province and began to march into the southern region.

On December 12, the eight great families united for the first time to fight against the Japanese invaders and fought for more than a month.

During this month, the defeated new army troops on the front line of the Eastern Province were reorganized. The eight major families controlled 135% of the new army troops of the former court. A total of million new troops launched an all-out war with the Japanese for more than a month.

During this period of more than a month, the remaining 72 troops of the Japanese Qiannan Army and 11 troops of the 50th Front Army, totaling 122 million troops, were deployed to the battlefield, and frequently fought battles with the 135 million troops of the eight major families in the Jiangbei area, An'an area, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas.

The war lasted for more than a month, and the eight great families consumed a total of 1770 million in money and lost 29 troops.

"We can't keep fighting like this."

The head of the Ye family, one of the eight great families, said, "In just one month, the funds consumed amounted to 1770 million. How can this be tolerated?"

"Also, we haven't trained more reserve forces for the new army. Once the new army is done fighting, what will we use to resist the Japanese? And training the reserve forces will cost a huge amount of money."

"Yes!"

The head of the Chen family also responded, "This month, 30% of our Chen family's income has been invested in this. We can't continue to fight like this."

"What else can we do if we don't fight?"

The head of the Wang family said, "The roots of our eight great families are all in the Jiangnan area. If they are breached by the Japanese, our foundation will surely be hit. And if we surrender to the Qin family, with the Qin family's large-scale purge policy, the first thing they will do is to eliminate our eight great families."

"But we can't keep fighting like this, otherwise our foundation will be gone sooner or later."

"Old Chen is right."

The head of the Lei family said, "My suggestion is to hold on for another month. During this month, we should transfer all our assets abroad. I think Citigroup is a good choice."

"Transfer abroad?"

"That's right," the head of the Lei family responded, "At least this way we don't have to be implicated in the war and can do business honestly."

"I agree with this plan."

The head of the Li family said, "My Li family has been deeply involved in maritime trade for decades. As long as you are willing, I have the ability to help you move your family assets to the United States, but I will charge a fee."

"Your Li family really knows how to do business!"

Everyone glanced at the head of the Li family and said, "That's the only way. Anyway, we have a lot of industries overseas. If we go overseas, maybe we can develop more smoothly and break through the current bottleneck."

"In that case, let's get ready!"
