Chapter 390 Opportunity for world dominance

After Tang Zheng completed the final assault, he looked at the more than one million yuan in funds and smiled bitterly.

More than one billion and close to two billion were all wasted in this way. This violent attack was really expensive.

And there is another very important point, that is, the money in his hands can no longer support the consumption of the war.

If a war breaks out now, the Light Chasing Army will not be able to fire as unscrupulously as before. This makes Tang Zheng, who is already somewhat accustomed to fire suppression, still not used to it.

 Still need to make money.

 In fact, Tang Zheng can also get money now. Whether it is attacking cities, destroying zombies, or mining, he can continue to bring profits, but this income is far behind that of the expedition to the Southern Peninsula.

 Having food in hand means he doesn't panic. How to make money quickly has become Tang Zheng's top priority now.

On the third day of the meeting, Tang Zheng did not participate much and let his subordinates discuss on their own.

 After the military meeting ended, the Light Chasing Army became busy as a whole.

 There is no external war now, and all the field troops are out fighting zombies.

Tang Zheng's newly-built brigade also went on the expedition, as well as the Army Aviation Regiment, special forces, etc. If the Light Chasing Army wants to maintain the high quality of its individual soldiers, it must upgrade all these recruits one after another.

 When these troops set out, they took away a large number of spare bullets from the arsenal. Because there is no money to supply them now, they can only use the spare bullets first.

And there are not too many spare bullets. After all, Tang Zheng still lacks copper and special steel. These two metals are the key to making bullets.

 So it is still a top priority to solve the funding problem as soon as possible.

Just when Tang Zheng was also worried about money, a piece of news came.

The communications troop arrived at Tang Zheng's residence and reported: "General, new news, representatives from Bai Yulan and other countries have set off for Yuanjing to discuss the redemption of prisoners of war."

 “Oh! They were finally willing to come.”

Tang Zheng immediately became energetic.

There are now a large number of prisoners of war in the hands of the Zhuguang Army. They were all captured by Tang Zheng during the naval battle on Didui Island.

But their warship was sunk by Tang Zheng, but the soldiers on the transport ship were captured by Tang Zheng. The number of prisoners in this group was four to five million, of which Bai Yulan had 300,000.

And when the Coastal Empire was later recovered, many people from the Wool Empire, Coconut Kingdom, and Java Kingdom who had landed were also captured by the Light Chaser Army.

 At present, the number of prisoners detained by the Zhuangguang Army for labor reform in various places is close to one million.

These are mature veterans, important and effective forces in those countries, and they cannot be left behind.

It was only later that Daliao tested nuclear weapons, and the attitudes of these countries hardened again, thinking that the Light Chasing Army might succumb to the pressure of nuclear weapons and release prisoners of war to gain some favorable conditions.

 But unexpectedly, there was a rebellion in Daliao. Ferdinand's rebellion disrupted everything, and Bai Yulan and other countries were a little panicked.

They were silent for a while, and finally couldn't help but ransom the prisoners.

 But Tang Zheng did not intend to release these prisoners easily.

 Once the captives are released, they are their own enemies. How can we easily increase the number of enemies?

Of course it is not impossible to release people, but Tang Zheng is going to have to open his mouth.

Ransom alone is not enough, he has higher demands.

"Well, since I have gone to Yuanjing, I plan to do the work of getting through to the princess first. It just so happens that I am pretty busy here for the time being, so I should also go to Yuanjing."

Tang Zheng set off from the official residence and did not go to the airport immediately. Instead, he walked around the city of Chasing Light first.

 It has been more than half a year since he left Light Chaser City, and the situation here has changed a lot.

 The first is the height of buildings in the entire city.

 At the beginning, due to the height of the city walls in the inner city, the buildings here had only seven floors at most.

But things are different now. Whether in the inner city or the outer city, there are many high-rise buildings, and skyscrapers can be seen everywhere.

 Only the original prime locations in the inner city have retained some of the original features of the Light-Chasing City.

For example, the Gunslinger Bar, under Tang Zheng’s care, was not demolished and remained as it was before.

Tang Zheng even saw the rooftop where he and Luo Qiuwan were drinking that night.

There are also the things Luo Qiuwan talked about with him, the owner of the car dealership, the couple selling breakfast, and the little wild flowers under the bluestone.

When Tang Zheng passed by the bluestone in his car, he took a special look down. Unfortunately, it was already winter, so of course there could be no wild flowers.

Tang Zheng still felt disappointed when he thought about Luo Qiuwan becoming the Big Corpse Sister and not hearing anything from her since she wiped out Lu Chen and other multinational troops.

The car drove forward until it circled back to the core area and arrived near the airport, when Tang Zheng was attracted by a group of new recruits.

It was a group of young men who were very energetic in appearance and appearance, and they were lining up to practice goose-stepping.

“Oh! This is the first time I’ve seen this group of soldiers. Doesn’t it look like a field force?”

Ning Yuwei smiled: "General, that is your newly-enlisted honor guard."

Tang Zheng slapped his forehead fiercely and suddenly remembered that he not only joined the honor guard, but also joined the art troupe.

It's just that he is now in a high position and there are so many things happening in the territory. He is no longer able to pay attention to these grassroots things. Tang Zheng's car entered the airport, and he looked back at the honor guards.

"Last time, the military parade on Didui Island was a bit simple. It seems that we should find an opportunity to hold a real grand military parade."

Ning Yuwei next to her also nodded: "General, actually the restoration of the country is really a good opportunity."

"Um."

Tang Zheng agreed. Although the task of restoring the country was completed, it was not a true restoration.

 The real restoration of the country should be held in a grand ceremony, even after he becomes emperor.

 This time when I go to Yuanjing, it’s time to discuss these things with Li Wuyou.

Tang Zheng didn't like too complicated red tape. This kind of military parade, becoming emperor, and even getting married to Li Wuyou. If possible, he wanted to do it all at once.

Of course you can’t be too hasty about such a big thing, at least choose a good day.

New Year?

 Or around the Spring Festival?

Tang Zheng thought to himself, got off the car and got on the plane.

This is a large transport plane that has been transformed into Tang Zheng's exclusive car.

 An air force squadron performed the **** mission, protecting Tang Zheng as he headed straight to Beijing.

That morning, Tang Zheng's plane arrived at Yuanjing Airport, and Li Wuyou personally came to the airport to greet Tang Zheng.

 Seeing Tang Zheng again, a blush flashed across Li Wuyou's pretty face.

 The two of them often talked on the phone and were now an unmarried couple. The girl felt a little embarrassed when she saw her future husband.

Tang Zheng got off the plane and raised his hand to hold Li Wuyou's little hand.

The cameras around them were clicking and flashing fiercely. Tang Zheng and Li Wuyou were holding hands. This was probably the thing that people across the country liked to see the most.

 The two of them got into the car hand in hand, and the car set off towards the palace.

On the way, Li Wuyou said to Tang Zheng: "Brother Zheng, the people from Magnolia have arrived, and among them is the Magnolia royal princess who I knew before the end of the world. She wants to meet me, but I didn't agree. They settled in first.”

Tang Zheng nodded: "Wuyou did the right thing. They just want to use your relationship to influence me so that I can release their prisoners of war. But there is nothing so cheap. These people want to kill me. I It would be a mercy not to kill all the prisoners of war, but it is not that simple to redeem the prisoners of war."

Li Wuyou looked up at Tang Zheng: "Then what are you going to do? I will listen to you. Are you planning to get a lot of gold, silver and jewelry?"

Every time Tang Zheng won a victory, he asked the other party to ask for these things when redeeming prisoners of war. People were used to it and thought that Tang Zheng still planned to do this.

Unexpectedly, Tang Zheng shook his head slightly this time: "Yes, but that's just an additional condition. I have a higher requirement."

"any request?"

Tang Zheng glanced at Li Wuyou: "Wuyou, the currency in our territory is now divided into two types, one is the Guangyuan issued by our Zhuguang City, and the other is the new currency originally issued by You. This has made the currency market There is some confusion, and I think our currencies should be unified."

Li Wuyou immediately nodded: "I think so too, and I wanted to talk to you about this matter, so how do you plan to unify it?"

Tang Zheng didn't need to think and said directly: "Let's call it Xinguang Yuan, which is the combination of the names of the two currencies. It will be issued in the form of one yuan, two yuan, five yuan, and ten yuan. The maximum face value is still one thousand yuan. The purchasing power will still be the same as the original Guangyuan. The past Guangyuan and new coins will be invalidated and recycled. I will ask the bank to do this immediately."

Li Wuyou nodded in agreement: "Okay, but what does this have to do with the higher requirements you mentioned?"

Tang Zheng smiled: "Before the end of the world, the world's common currency was Magnolia's currency, but after the end of the world, the world should be reshuffled. They who were defeated have no such qualifications, and the circulation of the world has begun to slowly recover. I think To redeem prisoners of war, the first condition is that our new Guangyuan must become the world's universal currency. This is the basis for negotiations. If this condition cannot be met, there will be no need to continue the negotiations."

Hearing this, Li Wuyou was stunned.

Her greatest ideal was to restore the country. Now the restoration of the country has become a tangible thing, but she has never had such a big ambition as Tang Zheng.

 Let Xinguang Yuan become the world's universal currency, which will undoubtedly push the new empire to the throne of world hegemony.

In the past, Magnolia had the convenience of a world currency, which allowed them to harvest the world's wealth unscrupulously and become the world's hegemon.

 And now Han Yue, does it already have such qualifications?

Li Wuyou felt that Bai Magnolia and the others might not agree to this request.

 Because once you accept this condition, it will be equivalent to handing over your number one position in the world to others.

Li Wuyou also received news that just some time ago, after the Daliao people tested small nuclear weapons, the Magnolia people also did the same.

Maybe Magnolia felt that she had support, so she came here to negotiate with them.

 But Tang Zheng dropped such a big bomb when he came up, and the negotiation was likely to collapse.

Li Wuyou was a little worried, but seeing Tang Zheng's confident smile, she felt inexplicably at ease.

 Obviously, a girl like her is not suitable to be the king of the world, and the man beside him is undoubtedly a suitable candidate.

 Since she has chosen him, she will support him unconditionally no matter what decision he makes.

 Because he is the future Emperor of Han Yue, and she will soon become her queen.
