Hong Kong movie Big Adventure

Chapter 97 Ten years have passed
Ten years passed with a snap of the fingers.

Ma Deshang also admired himself a little, he persisted in all this.

Now he has become a veritable underground emperor in Shanghai. Not only the French Concession, but also the British Concession, the Public Concession and the Chinese Concession have been controlled by him.

And the way to control it is also very simple. The Green Gang gang members who claim to be 50 are actually 20.

As long as these people give an order from Ma Deshang, they can paralyze the whole Shanghai.

Of course, if you want to become an underground emperor, you can't just rely on a large number of people, you also need to have money.

His wallet, Shanghai Commercial Bank, has become the largest private bank in China after ten years of development, with branches all over China.

As long as there is a Shanghai Commercial Bank at the provincial and municipal level, money is no longer a problem.

More importantly, the [-] Shanghai Self-Defense Forces he secretly trained have all taken shape and are being placed in the French Concession, the British Concession, and the Public Concession.

These [-] troops are usually ordinary laborers or coachmen, and their training is carried out in units of companies and platoons. It is not that they have not been discovered over the years, but these have been given by Ma Deshang in various ways. cover up.

Now he has turned him into an extremely powerful bomb. Neither the French in the French Concession nor the British in the British Concession dare to take the initiative to expose Madechan.

Because this is a scandal for them, and Ma Deshang has brought them great benefits, once Ma Deshang's matter is exposed, they will also be finished.

With this layer of relationship, coupled with Ma Deshang's cautiousness, he finally got through these ten years without any danger.

It is still in the Lu family villa, but now it has been renamed the Lu Mansion.

A year ago, in order to make it easier for Ma Deshang to control the Green Gang, Huang Jinrong announced his retirement under Lin Guisheng's persuasion.

Ma Deshang officially became the helm of the Youth Gang.

Moreover, he also made history by becoming the chief inspector of the Chinese in the three concessions of the French Concession, the British Concession, and the Public Concession.

These foreigners were all highly praised by Ma Deshang, and all specific matters were handled by the Chinese themselves, which gave Ma Deshang great prestige in the minds of the Chinese in the concession.

In order to achieve this goal, Ma Deshang did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to enter the domestic politics of these foreign countries. Although he cannot control the political direction of these countries at will, it is still possible to let them turn a blind eye to Ma Deshang's actions. arrived.

Ma Deshang sensibly did not extend his hand to China, but economically, more than 90.00% of the business in China is related to Yongxin Company.

Now Yongxin Company is no longer a simple opium company, it has become a giant.

He is present in all walks of life in Shanghai, such as real estate, catering, opium, foreign trade, etc., and many industries are monopolized.

It was because of these that Ma Deshang became a well-deserved underground emperor.

The Lu mansion was full of people, and it was very lively. These people were all talents in information processing. Ma Deshang recruited them to the Lu mansion to help him process information.

Every day, a large amount of information gathers in Lu Mansion from all over the country, and without a computer, it is impossible for Ma Deshang to handle all these things by himself, so he came up with this method.

These people usually work in another place, but during this time, Ma Deshang transferred them all.

Because a very important day is coming.

At this moment, Ma Deshang is holding a meeting with the core members of his team in the conference room on the second floor.

No.1 on the left, Ding Cao, who is in charge of intelligence and assassination missions, his appearance has not changed much, the only change is that his red wine nose is gone. Quit drinking, which was beyond Jiang Shang's expectations.

Now Ding Cao is married and has children, his wife is still the matchmaker of the sixth child, and Ma Deshang is the witness of the marriage.

No.1 on the right is Zhang Lu, commander of the first division of the [-] Shanghai Self-Defense Force. Speaking of Zhang Lu's changes, Ma Deshang was even more amazed. It turns out that the environment can really change a person. Zhang Lu ten years ago was at most a person. The potential of the head of the bodyguard, but because of his love for weapons, he began to study weapons.

He became the company commander of the machine gun company at the beginning, and later became the battalion commander under the training of German instructors. However, at this time, Zhang Lu had never participated in a war.

Obviously, an army of 3 people cannot do without officers who have not fought in battles. Ma Deshang immediately sent a group of managers, including Zhang Lu, to spend money to study in martial arts halls in various places, and fought as officers in the warlord army. After the battle, find a way to come back.

It was not enough to send out hundreds of people, but less than 100 people came back, and most of them died in the battle. With these 100 people, the command system of the Shanghai Self-Defense Force was initially established.

Zhang Lu became the brigade commander of the mixed brigade in the warlord army. In order to arrange for him to come back, he even implemented a method of feigning death.

But there were still many grassroots officers missing. At this time, the orphanage came into play. Some of the people who returned from the battlefield were injured and could no longer fight. Ma Deshang recruited these people as instructors and established a temporary officer training school.

The older children in the orphanage are basically in their twenties, and at least have a high school education level or above, and they learn military command skills very quickly.

Of course, in addition to young people, there are also many well-behaved soldiers who are also one of the important sources of grassroots officers.

Officially through this method, Ma Deshang formed the 3-strong Shanghai Self-Defense Force, but the combat effectiveness of the Shanghai Self-Defense Force can only be measured by war.

Zhao Fang, commander of the second division, and Lin Changdong, commander of the third division, both of them were recruited by Ma Deshang. These two had served as brigade commanders in the warlord army, and they all had real talents, but they were dismissed for various reasons. Being idle gave Ma Deshang a chance.

The second person from the left is A Ding. He brought Wu Qiang back the year before last. Now he is the chief manager of Ma Deshang, and he takes care of the internal and external affairs of the Lu mansion.

Ading, who is in his 30s, has grown a beard and looks much more mature and stable. He has already taken seven wives and is still thinking about marrying an eighth.

The third person from the left is A Rui. He is now the general manager of the fort project. All the forts in the French Concession have been built and named Fort No. [-]. The command post of Zhang Lu's First Division is located at Fort No. [-].

In the future, Ma Deshang plans to build fortresses in key places in Shanghai. Of course, these can only be done after he controls Shanghai, but these are already being prepared.

The fourth person on the left is Ahua, he is now the deputy general manager of Yongxin Company, the general manager is Yuan Xiaojun, but Yuan Xiaojun has been emptied of his rights by Ma Deshang, the monthly dividend is just, Yuan Xiaojun and Huang Jinrong often get together Play cards and play women together.

In fact, Yuan Xiaojun is still very capable, but he will become a traitor in the future, and Ma Deshang really dare not use him.

The fifth person on the left is Wu San. He is now the deputy general manager of Shanghai Commercial Bank. The general manager is still Chen Guangfu. However, Chen Guangfu was arranged by Ma Deshang to develop foreign business abroad. Only in this way can he ensure the safety of his wallet.

Wu San is also very competitive. After studying in major banks, he showed his talent and entered Shanghai Commercial Bank by himself. Under Ma Deshang's arrangement, he grew up to be the actual controller of Shanghai Commercial Bank step by step.

The sixth person from the left is Chen Pi. He performed relatively well in the battle against the Triad Society. Ma Deshang gradually focused on training him. He is now the spokesperson of Ma Deshang in the Youth Gang.

The fourth and fifth ones on the right are the Chen Qi brothers and sisters. Chen Qi is no longer an ordinary boss of the labor gang, but the chairman of the Shanghai Labor Committee, and Chen Jiao is the propaganda director of the committee.

Throughout Shanghai, workers are on the side of the Labor Committee, and many people here can become soldiers by picking up a gun, although their combat effectiveness is not very good.

The sixth person on the right is Wu Qiang who returned from studying abroad. After returning to China, Wu Qiang was arranged by Ma Deshang to continue his studies in Shanghai University and became the chairman of the student union, which means that the students are also on Ma Deshang's side at the moment.

"Everyone is here now, so everyone must listen to me about what I'm going to do next."

Ma Deshang sat on the main seat, sweeping across the faces of the people sitting there.

Hearing what Ma Deshang said, all the people sitting in the conference room were shocked. Although they already knew what Ma Deshang was going to do, they wanted to hear it from Ma Deshang's mouth.

"From the information we have received now, we can be sure that Jiangsu Governor Qi Xieyuan and Zhejiang Governor Lu Yongxiang have completely started fighting. They are fighting for the control of Shanghai, and we are also fighting for the control of Shanghai. We want to take advantage of these two predators. It’s not that difficult to seize this piece of Shanghai’s cake and eat it in your mouth. I want to ask you if you have the confidence!”

Ma Deshang said slowly.

"Have!"

Everyone in the conference room replied in unison.

"Okay, Ding Cao, tell me what the situation is like outside now."

Ma Deshang turned to look at Ding Cao.

"Everyone, the first shot of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang War was fired in Yixing, Jiangsu. At present, the two sides are in a stalemate, and the troops of both sides are frequently mobilized."

"Brother Ding Cao, how many troops does Lu Yongxiang have in Shanghai now?"

Zhang Lu, commander of the First Division, asked immediately.

"Only Bi Shuzheng's army is left, less than 3 people."

"From this point of view, it seems that our strength is not much different from that of Lu Yongxiang, but if we count the strength of the Youth Gang and the Labor Member Association, we are still much stronger."

Zhang Lu turned to Ma Deshang and said.

"Zhang Lu is right. Lu Yongxiang's main energy is now on Qi Xieyuan. At this time, we only need to send troops to occupy Shanghai and capture Lu Yongxiang, and we will win."
