The person everyone was talking about, Fang Lang, could not wait to arrive at the naval hospital and hugged his girlfriend Lilith tightly.
"Lilith, I finally see you again! Do you miss me?"
With tears in her eyes, the little girl hugged Fang Lang's waist tightly with a look of grievance, and buried her pear-shaped little face in Fang Lang's arms.
"Fang, I miss you so much. You don't even write to me. I want to write but I don't know where to send it!"
"Haha... Silly girl, I have been at sea, and the postman can't catch up with me. By the time your letter is sent to Brazil, maybe I will have returned to you."
Fang Lang could clearly feel Lilith's thoughts from Lilith's strong arms, and smiled and whispered comfort in the little girl's ear.
"But I miss you!"
Feeling the little girl acting coquettishly in his arms, Fang Lang would not refuse.
"Yeah...I understand, I miss you too. Aren't I back now? Do you want to take leave this afternoon and go shopping with me?"
Lilith's inner joy for Fang Lang's return was beyond words. When she heard that Fang Lang was going to take her shopping, her head buried in Fang Lang's chest moved happily.
"Yeah! Then let's go pick up my sister together!"
Fang Lang didn't expect that Lilith would remember to take Wei Wei'an with her at this time. It's not that Fang Lang doesn't like Wei Wei'an or doesn't want to be with Wei Wei'an, but after all, Fang Lang was with Lilith first, so he still I want to give myself and Lilith some more space alone.
"Are you sure you want to pick up your sister?"
Hearing Fang Lang's slightly hesitant question, Lilith looked puzzled and said:
"Of course, this is our agreement. I can't leave her alone to date you. Don't you like Wei Wei'an?"
As a man, how could he dislike such a good thing as sisters, but if he puts himself in his shoes, Fang Lang would also worry about whether Lilith really doesn't mind at all.
"Of course not, but Lilith, do you really not mind at all?"
"No! My sister and I have a good relationship! We will share everything together!"
Seeing Lilith's careless expression, the scumbag man reluctantly said the most scumbag words.
"But in this case! Would I be too bad?"
"This is of our own free will! I can't blame you!"
Hearing Lilith's answer, Fang Lang didn't know how to describe his mood. He was both happy and guilty.
The two of them laughed all the way to school to pick up their sister Vivian! The three of them laughed and laughed all the way, and then sent the two of them home after having dinner together.
When Fang Lang returned to the naval base, Lieutenant Colonel Graham had been waiting outside Fang Lang's barracks for a long time. Fang Lang saw Lieutenant Colonel Graham waiting outside the door at a glance, and quickly stepped forward and said:
"Lieutenant Colonel Graham, good evening! Are you waiting for me here?"
"Oh! My God, Fang, you are finally back. I have been waiting for you for almost an hour!"
Mr. Lieutenant Colonel had obviously been waiting for a long time. He stood up, stamped his feet, rubbed his fingers and said.
"Uh! I'm really sorry, sir. I just returned to Italy today. I have a lot of things to deal with, so I came back late. If you have any orders, please tell me directly."
Fang Lang would not tell him that he went shopping with his girlfriend in the afternoon. If Graham knew how long he had been waiting, Fang Lang was enjoying the blessing of being together, and he would be furious if he didn't.
"Haha... I don't have anything to tell you, I just have good news to tell you!"
Seeing Fang Lang's attitude, Graham couldn't express any dissatisfaction, so he could only smile.
"Haha...I understand, Chief Graham, you are a commander of your word, and you really do what you say. Thank you very much for your support."
After hearing Graham say that he had good news for him, Fang Lang thought that this man was here to take credit for Fang Lang's lieutenant being promoted to captain! I can't help but think, don't you see that my brother's collar badge is already a captain? If you come here to ask for credit at this time, might it be too late?
"Ah! No, Fang, you misunderstood. Your promotion to captain is just a trivial matter. I am here to tell you another good news!"
Hearing Fang Lang's words, Lieutenant Colonel Graham waved his hands repeatedly. In the Brazilian army, as long as you have money and can bribe the superior, you can easily get a lieutenant-level officer. There is no gold content, so Lieutenant Colonel Graham said indifferently. .
"Ah! Is there any other good news?"
Seeing Graham's behavior, he obviously did not treat helping Fang Lang rise from lieutenant to captain as something worthy of showing off. This made Fang Lang wonder what kind of good news Graham could bring to him. Become expectant.
"Yes, I believe you have received the order to report to the expeditionary force headquarters tomorrow!"
Looking at Fang Lang's expectant expression, Graham began to show off.
"Yes, today Colonel Parisi has ordered me to report to the expeditionary force headquarters tomorrow morning! Is there any other good news here?"
This kind of information has no significance at all in keeping it secret, so Fang Lang took it for granted that Lieutenant Colonel Graham knew about it.
"Hehe... Of course, your boy has done a big thing in Brazil this time without making any noise!"
Lieutenant Colonel Graham looked at the young man in front of him with envy. After all, this was the first time Brazil cracked down on the Axis espionage organization during World War II. Therefore, the credit and influence are very huge. Otherwise, the President would know about such a small thing, and the Ministry of National Defense would need to call specifically to commend him.
Of course, this may also be the reason why Brazil joined the Allied Powers for too short a time. There is no threat of war in its own country. At most, German submarines cruise in the waters where the Brazilian Navy often frequents, causing a lot of trouble for the Brazilian Navy! Therefore, World War II actually did not have much impact on Brazil.
Of course, it will have no impact at all. For example, the formation of the expeditionary force will definitely affect many families. The sharp increase in the Allies' material demand has pushed many resource companies in Brazil to unprecedented heights.
The Brazilian government has made a lot of money. Vale, Brazil's largest state-owned iron ore company, was only officially established in 1942. It later became the world's largest iron ore processing and export company because of its During this period, it developed by continuously selling high-grade iron ore to the United States.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Fang Lang. Fang Lang only cares about what benefits he can do now.
"Hi! This is not a big deal, it's just good luck! The credit comes to you automatically! Does the good news you mentioned have anything to do with this?"
Seeing Fang Lang's expression, Graham knew that Fang Lang didn't have a clear understanding of the benefits.
"Of course, the Ministry of National Defense sent a special commendation telegram. Do you think it's good news?"
I heard that it was a commendation from the Ministry of National Defense. Of course Fang Lang knew that it was very rare, but what's the point of an award without something practical?
"It's just a commendation! That's of no use!"
Seeing Fang Lang's slightly disgusted expression, Lieutenant Colonel Graham couldn't help but start to envy Fang Lang's stupidity.
"Of course it won't be as simple as just a commendation. I came to you in advance this time to tell you good news. Tomorrow you will officially enter the ranks of school-level officers."
Lieutenant Colonel Graham's words finally confirmed what Fang Lang heard from Colonel Parisi's words. However, this credit does not belong to him alone. After all, when he discovered the two Japanese spies, Fang Lang took de la Torre with him, and the bonus was divided between the two.
"What, there is such a good thing, where is my first mate?"
Graham obviously had some knowledge of De La Torre's affairs, but after all, he was not one of his own, so the only benefit he received from the first mate was to lament the other party's good luck.
"Of course he was promoted to the same rank as you! He is so lucky. He has been at the rank of lieutenant for four years. I didn't expect that he was promoted to the next rank in less than four months after following you."
After hearing Lieutenant Colonel Graham's words, Fang Lang also said with a smile on his face:
"Haha...this is all luck, luck. Hehe..."
