Battle of the Third Reich: The 134th network (on)
"Let me think about it, where do I start?" Jurgen picked up his briefcase from his feet.
"Let's talk about this first." The SS major took out a folder again from his briefcase.
"This was found by the Grey Sword team in the house where Lamu was hiding." Jurgen opened the folder, pulled out a page of documents and placed it in front of Randolph.
"What are these?" Randolph looked down at the file and found that it was full of strange symbols and letters.
"According to Lamu’s confession, this is a secret account. The symbols on it record the location, time, sales volume, and buyer’s name in turn." Jurgen leaned out and showed Randolph. .
"I don't understand, what buyer, what is he selling?" Randolph was even more confused after hearing this.
"This is what he sells." Jurgen took out another paper box from his briefcase.
"This is?" Randolph opened the carton and found that there was still a layer of wrapping paper inside. He opened the paper bag and revealed some partially agglomerated white powder-like objects.
"Here is 20 grams of benzylecgonine. Some people call it cocaine." Jurgen twisted a handful of powder with his fingers.
"This is cocaine?" Randolph had heard of this world-famous drug, but it's the first time he has seen it.
"This Lamu, is he selling drugs?" Randolph pushed the box back to Jurgen, eyes with deep disgust.
"Yes, he is a Royal Air Force officer on the surface, but a drug dealer in private." Jurgen twisted his fingers, and some yellowed powder sparsely fell back into the paper bag.
"We have tested it. The purity of this package of cocaine is not very high. It contains a lot of impurities such as starch. It has obviously undergone secondary processing." Jurgen took out a sheet from his briefcase. With tissue paper, wiped the powdered fingers.
"Lieutenant Colonel Randolph, now I have the honor to tell you that we have discovered one of the largest and most complex criminal networks to date, and this Mr. Lamu is a very important part of this network." SS Said the major respectfully.
"Criminal Network?! What's going on? Can you elaborate more?" Randolph was happy again, he likes listening to gang crime stories the most.
"This will start after Lamu was promoted to sergeant." Jurgen closed the tray and pushed it into the middle of the table.
"Lamu was full of energy at the time, thinking that after years of hard work, his destiny has finally been changed." Jurgen picked up his cup and took a sip of coffee.
"But one day, a partner in the scam gang suddenly came to the door, and now Lamu doesn’t understand how the other party knows where he is going. The leader of the gang is very interested in Lamu’s current identity, so He threatened to report him to the military and threatened Lamu to work for the organization again." Jurgen pointed at the document and said.
"So he gave in? I mean that Lamu." Randolph asked.
"He has no other choice, either to work for these people, or to be sent to a military court by the military and kicked out of the army. And once the news is exposed, the cruel lynching of the higher castes awaits him and falls to those guys. Here he is dead." The SS major replied with a sneer.
"So they forced him to sell this?" Randolph pointed to the box.
"In the beginning, they did not let him participate in drug trafficking, but only through his relationship, using the Royal Air Force aircraft to smuggle prohibited items in Southeast Asia. India is the base camp of the British Far East Forces, and the Royal Air Force’s military transport routes are all over the world. A colony. The commodities they smuggle are mainly precious metals, gems, precious medicinal materials and foreign currencies that are strictly controlled, as well as cocaine produced in Japan." Juergen pointed to the carton.
"You mean, these things are made in Japan?" Randolph's eyes widened in surprise.
"There is no doubt that we found the logo of Japan's Sankyo Pharmaceutical Company on some wrapping paper, and this Sankyo Pharmaceutical Company is the largest cocaine manufacturer in the Far East." Jurgen pulled out a photo from the folder. Above is a photo of the wrapping paper stamped with a blue triangle.
Here, the author would like to mention the situation of the cocaine trade in the 1940s. I hope you don’t treat it like me.
There are a lot of information about this kind of drug in the society, so I won’t go into details here. At the beginning of its birth, Europeans did not realize its harm at all, but because of its special pharmacological effects, it was widely used in the treatment of various diseases. At that time, the European medical community even regarded it as a pediatric medicine to treat children. Of asthma.
Until the 1920s and 1920s, people gradually discovered the harm of this kind of drug, because the industrial production of modern pharmaceutical companies reduced costs, resulting in this kind of drugs that were originally only affordable by the wealthy class The spread among the low- and middle-class civilians, coupled with the decadence prevailing in society after the First World War, people who survived the war began to pursue a life of drunkenness and suffocation, so this kind of chemical with a strong excitement was used by people as Drugs used for entertainment are abused.
The United States first banned the sale of this "drug" on the market. At that time, the United States was the second largest manufacturer of cocaine in the world. This drug has been rampant in the United States, forcing the U.S. federal government to treat cocaine Included in the category of drugs, began to crack down on the cocaine trade nationwide. Then it was the turn of European countries. Switzerland and France began to ban cocaine. Although the United Kingdom followed closely behind, it still listed the drug in the British Empire's Pharmacopoeia.
As for the German Meyer Pharmaceutical Company in Germany, it was the largest cocaine manufacturer in the world at the beginning of the twentieth century. The amount of cocaine refined and processed every year was as high as 35 tons, and it was sold to the world through German commercial networks. drug". It was not until Europe and the United States began to completely ban the trade of cocaine that Merle had to cut the production of cocaine, which gave up its reputation as the world's number one.
So to whom? It is the aforementioned Sankyo Pharmaceutical. The latitude and temperature of Europe are not suitable for the growth of coca plants. The raw materials used in Europe are all from the Far East. The main producing areas are British India and Dutch Indochina.
India has been planting coca under the guidance of the British since the 18th century, and all the high-quality coca leaves harvested are supplied to the British mainland. The coca cultivation industry in Indochina, the Netherlands is very prosperous, and the coca leaves produced every year are as high as More than 1,500 tons were originally provided to major pharmaceutical companies in Europe, but when the drug was banned, the local coca leaves lost their sales market, so local planters turned their attention to Japan.
Japan’s drug manufacturing technology originated from Europe, but they produce drugs and have already occupied the entire Asian market. The main sales direction is China, which is already an open secret. Japan's profits from the drug trade in China have long surpassed the sum of other commodities. Japan not only sells opium in China, but also sells cocaine and heroin. These addictions are fast-moving drugs that harm and seriously poison the physique of Chinese civilians. At the same time, they robbed a large amount of private wealth and created the tragedy of countless wives and families. The sequelae caused by Japanese drugs continued until the early 1950s.
After Sankyo Pharmaceutical obtained the cocaine extraction technology from the British and obtained the raw materials continuously provided by the Dutch Indochina, it began to frantically expand its production scale, and finally the annual output reached 25 tons. Most of them are sold to mainland China, and the remaining products are quietly flowed into India through various smuggling channels.
You are not mistaken. Since the 1920s, Japan has replaced Germany as the primary source of drugs in India. India is the hardest-hit area for drug abuse in Asia, and the number of drug users is second only to mainland China. Although the British colonial government has been severely cracking down on the drug trade, the effect is only a drop in the bucket. The drugs inspected by the police each year account for less than one percent of the total smuggling.
India’s drug market has a characteristic, which accounts for 90% of the drugs, all of which are cocaine. Most of the drug addicts in India are poor and poor. They are more addicted than the rich and the moment of joy that drugs bring to them. In order to satisfy the drug addiction, they don’t hesitate to spend the last rupees at home in exchange for a lot of impurities from street gangs. Of low-quality drugs.
Preliminary statistics from the British colonial government ~IndoMTL.com~The proportion of drug addicts in Indian cities is about five thousandths. The situation in the countryside is even more serious. A city in Delhi alone consumes five to six tons of pure cocaine every year. It can be seen how serious the spread of drugs in India is. Indians like to eat cocaine together with the betel nuts they usually chew. It is said that this thing can make the poor temporarily forget about hunger, so it is popular among Dalit groups.
"This organization soon became dissatisfied with being a mere seller. Since Lamu joined, they have mastered a stable smuggling channel, and then they merged with other Indian criminal groups. They wanted to get from retail Merchant, become a back-end wholesaler." Jurgen said with a sneer.
"I see, then what does this have to do with the pilot who murdered us?" Randolph asked.
"Don't worry, Lieutenant Colonel Randolph, I said before that this is a very complicated story, please continue to listen to me patiently." Jurgen replied respectfully.
