1928: The rise of giant merchants

The Tax Police Corps performed so well in the Battle of Shanghai, especially when it was accompanied by the 19th Route Army and the Military Police Corps, it was like a tiger and wolf army.

Ye Luo expected that the principal would come up with this idea.

He smiled: "The Tax Police Corps is mixed with a large number of Ye's security and sports employees. When Brother Song and I started this, it was mainly to facilitate the collection of local taxes. Many members are also locals in Shanghai. They have old and young families, and I am afraid they can't follow the National Army to fight in other places."

"This is easy to do. Separate the Ye's investment employees from the establishment, form another tax inspection team, and then recruit soldiers with rich combat and military experience, reorganize them into a new unit, and put them into the 19th Route Army."

The principal also knew that the composition of the Tax Police Corps was complicated. If he wanted to take over the whole thing, he didn't know who to find to replace Wen Yingxing as the head of the corps.

In his opinion, the Tax Police Corps was able to play a huge role in this battle, first of all, it was Wen Yingxing and a group of national army generals who contributed the most, and secondly, it was equipped with elite weapons and equipment, which were all supporting facilities derived from the original Huade military cooperation project, and were much better than other national army equipment.

Finally, there are many excellent soldiers in the Tax Police Corps, their individual combat capabilities are very strong, and with sophisticated weapons, they can naturally fight ten with one.

Among these many factors, Ye Luo's Ye's investment component is the least, and can even be ignored.

He is also worried about letting Ye's investment employees mix in the military establishment, what would that look like?

"Thank you, Party Chairman. As long as the tax inspection troops are still retained, I have no objection." Ye Luo smiled and nodded, "But Party Chairman, a large number of weapons and equipment equipped by the Tax Police Corps are basically produced by factories under the previous cooperation projects, and these costs"

After the death of Colonel Max, the Huade military cooperation project gradually fell into the hands of some senior officials of the National Party, and Ye Luo had no intention of continuing to be involved in it. After withdrawing from it, he never cared about it again.

And the arsenals under his control, after leaving the assistance of Ye's investment capital, actually gradually became inferior to Ye Luo's own arsenals in productivity and other aspects.

But since the principal wanted to steal his love, he naturally had to ask for some compensation.

"Haha, you are indeed a businessman, you really don't want to give up any benefits." The principal was very happy to hear him say this. He thought it would be difficult to get Ye Luo to give in, and he might have to bleed a lot, but he didn't expect Ye Luo to be so easy to talk to.

"Party leader, I am a businessman." Ye Luo replied with a smile, and everyone laughed along.

This time, they all wanted to get a share of the tax police corps. Seeing that Ye Luo was about to give in, several people began to rub their hands, hoping to take over this tiger wolf division and replenish the troops.

"I will let the person who takes over and you calculate all the costs one by one, and then you can ask the Ministry of Finance for money." The principal immediately kicked the ball to Song Ziwen.

Song Ziwen's face suddenly turned black, but he was helpless.

He basically did not contribute much in this Battle of Songhu, and the principal would not let him get away with it so easily. The subsequent compensation to Ye Luo would naturally come from the Song family's treasury.

Song Ziwen laughed dryly and said to Ye Luo: "A Luo, please show mercy. I am so poor recently."

Ye Luo smiled but said nothing.

Show mercy?

I will strip you naked!

Ye Luo knew that the Tax Police Corps would not be able to keep it in his hands after this battle, so he dispatched the most elite troops to Qing City in advance, and Liu Fangwu personally controlled them. The three and a half battalions were equipped with the most sophisticated weapons and equipment, and the soldiers were also picked from thousands of miles away.

In this Battle of Songhu, Ye Luo was reluctant to let them come back, but let Fan Haer's people take over.

Secondly, the most core resource of the Tax Police Corps is actually talent. In this part, he has long relied on a large number of talents to Ye's investment through internal operations.

At first, these people were not very happy. After all, they were originally part of the National Army. Now they were suddenly downgraded to employees of Ye Investment. Who would be willing to do that?

But Ye Luo gave them too much.

The food and treatment of the direct troops of Ye Investment in the Tax Police Corps are better than those of others. If others are dissatisfied, they can be stopped with one sentence-

They are employees of Ye Investment, and Ye Investment will pay their wages. You are soldiers of the National Army. The military pay comes from the Ministry of Military Affairs. If you want money and treatment, you have to ask He Yingqin. It is not easy for Ye Luo to give.

Therefore, the principal seemingly incorporated the Tax Police Corps at no cost, but the actual combat power is still concentrated on the newly established Tax Inspection Corps.

Ye Luo also took the opportunity to separate this iron lion from the system of the National Army.

These things seem simple, but in fact, for today, Ye Luo has been busy all year. After all, it is also a big project to win people's hearts and separate secretly without making a sound.

After the matter was settled, the principal was ready to assign the final ownership of the Tax Police Corps.

The people present included the former regiment commander Wen Yingxing, Chen Mingshu, Jiang Guangnai, Dai Ji, Cai Tingkai and other generals of the 19th Route Army, as well as several senior generals of the National Army who had specially returned from abroad.

Everyone was looking forward to it, but the principal waved his hand and called Huang Jie who was waiting in the corner.

Huang Jie, a first-term student of Huangpu Military Academy, served as the commander of the 2nd Brigade of the 2nd Division in 1930. During the Central Plains War, he successfully protected the principal who insisted on commanding at Liuhe Station and had the merit of saving the principal.

This year, he succeeded the defeated Tang Enbo as the lieutenant general commander of the 2nd Division and was stationed in Henan Province.

He was only three years older than Ye Luo. At the age of 29 this year, he was already a lieutenant general commander. He could be said to be the principal's confidant.

But at this age, including this position, it is a bit underrated in this party general office.

"I want to appoint Huang Jie as the second head of the Tax Police Corps, and Wen Yingxing as the political commissar. What do you think?"

The principal called Huang Jie, who stood at attention and saluted with a look of joy.

As everyone knows, Huang Jie is a fanatic among the principal's diehards, which means that the principal wants to take the Tax Police Corps for himself.

After realizing this, the people who were originally eager to make a move immediately adjusted their attitudes, agreed and congratulated Huang Jie.

Huang Jie also smiled and came over to shake hands with Ye Luo: "Second Young Master, please take the time to complete the handover with me."

"I will do my best to assist." Ye Luo looked at him with a smile.

Huang Jie is not bad in ability, but he is not as good as Sun Liren, who will become the head of the later group.

Moreover, he is too loyal and only follows the principal's lead. The Tax Police Corps will eventually become an ordinary force after being handed over to him.

This is also good.

It saves a lot of trouble.

At this time, many well-known figures in the regiment have not yet made a name for themselves. Sun Liren is just a small lower-level officer, so it is not a problem to trick him.

Seeing that the two get along quite well, the principal also smiled, and felt that Ye Luo was much easier to get along with than the Kong and Song families.

You can consider Deng Wenyi's previous suggestion. (End of this chapter)
