Looking at the military intelligence officer in front of him, Fang Lang couldn't believe his professionalism. After all, China's military commanders during World War II were not ordinary people.
Professional matters should still be left to professionals. You should also consider how to lock down the Japanese fleet if they come out.
Which route the other party may take for transportation, and whether it will always be escorted by Japanese aircraft. Although the Japanese navy is now considered disabled, there are still three kilograms of nails in the broken ship!
Fang Lang would not let down his guard just because the Japanese were about to surrender. Maybe, the Japanese also want to use this transport fleet to fish!
Judging from their height and body shape, the two people in front of them did not look like Japanese. However, Fang Lang knew very well that the Japanese also had many traitors and lackeys, and Fang Lang could not easily believe their identities.
However, Fang Lang had to pay attention to the information they provided. What if it's true? However, in his own heart, Fang Lang was still more inclined to believe in their identities.
Because from beginning to end, Fang Lang didn't feel any malice in them. This is not because Fang Lang is superstitious about his sixth sense, but that his sixth sense has indeed never made any mistakes so far.
After thinking about it, Fang Lang suddenly had an idea. Could it be that these little Japanese were actually ready to set off a long time ago, but his sudden appearance disrupted their plans?
At this time, the U.S. Navy had just experienced the Battle of Okinawa and was resting. Normally, this time should leave a loophole for the Japanese to exploit.
But as a little butterfly who just arrived in Okinawa and doesn't need to rest, will he disrupt the Japanese plan? In the past few days, I have been approaching step by step. How will the Japanese react?
Fang Lang began to think about it. If he were a Japanese commander, he found a destroyer approaching Shanghai tentatively step by step. Do you think your plan has been exposed?
Exposed or not exposed, what measures should you take to deal with it. Slowly, Fang Lang had a feeling in his heart that the Japanese were either waiting for him to leave, or they were thinking of how to kill him with one blow.
Slowly, the ideas in Fang Lang's mind gradually became clear. A smile began to appear at the corner of his mouth, and he believed that the Japanese must be impatient.
It is daytime now, and Fang Lang is not worried, because the daytime is dominated by the U.S. Air Force, and U.S. military planes can arrive in two hours from Okinawa.
After thinking for a long time, Fang Lang slapped his forehead and secretly cursed himself as a fool. It seems that I am used to being poor and have never lived a wealthy life. I do not have an air force and my thinking is limited.
However, there is a rich man behind him now. It is said that one force can defeat ten societies. How can things be so complicated? Now I am the one taking the initiative!
Thinking of this, Fang Lang did not hesitate anymore and said to Zhong Ze and the others:
"Damn! You guys are serious. Now that you know where the kid's boat is, do you care when he sets off? Isn't a stationary boat easier to explode than a moving boat?"
Regardless of their reactions, they walked directly to the bridge and connected the communication to General Clark's office.
"General Clark, this is Fang Lang. I am currently off the coast of Shanghai. I have just received accurate information. The Japanese army has assembled a large number of transport ships at the Shanghai port and concentrated oil on more than 20 ships. They are preparing to ship a batch of Strategic supplies are shipped to Japan. I would like to apply to dispatch planes now to keep these ships and supplies in Shanghai."
"Is the news accurate?"
"This news was provided by national military intelligence personnel. However, based on the analysis of the situations I have encountered in the past few days, this news should be true."
"Then you stay nearby and evaluate the results of the battle. The plane will arrive in three hours!"
Hearing the reply on the communication channel, Fang Lang finally experienced what it felt like to be a rich man, a rich man who was inhumane.
It’s just a war! There are so many twists and turns, can't we just push it flatly? If you have planes, why do you need submarines? What do you need for hunting? If one batch is not enough, get another one.
I unconsciously warned myself to change my thinking. Now is no longer the era of giant ships and cannons. What it means to have control of the air is to have control of the sea.
The time of waiting is very difficult, especially when you know that something you are particularly looking forward to is about to happen. This kind of waiting is simply a kind of torture.
Fang Lang felt a little restless. He tried to calm down, so he began to patrol around the warship. As a result, the crew members were very nervous.
He was forced to stop his inspection and stood outside the bridge, looking through the telescope in the direction of Shanghai. He knew very well where that direction was, and he really wanted to go home and see what his hometown looked like now.
Thinking that he had just contacted the US military planes to bomb his hometown. Although it was an attack on the Japanese, I was worried that innocent people would be killed or injured.
He wanted to notify the US military to cancel the bombing plan, but he was also afraid that the Japanese had really escaped under his nose. The mood is very complicated.
The adjutant who had been following him didn't know what was happening to his commander! Yes, you read that right, Fang Lang also has an adjutant and an orderly now.
His adjutant only had the rank of second lieutenant. The reason why his rank was so low was because before he was made his adjutant, he was just an ordinary veteran of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force.
The reason why he became Fang Lang's adjutant was because he was a Chinese brother who joined the army with his predecessor, and he was also a friend who grew up together.
The three people who joined the army together at the beginning, when Fang Lang ordered Duarte to select Marines, they were directly included in the list.
At first, Fang Lang didn't dare to contact them when he woke up. After all, I am no longer the same person, and I am afraid that my close friends will see the flaws.
Fortunately, both of them survived the war safely. Fang Lang certainly wanted to promote his brothers when given the opportunity, so he directly transferred them to his subordinates.
When the two saw Fang Lang again, they couldn't believe their eyes. The brother they grew up with and joined the army together had suddenly become a high-ranking naval colonel.
Both of them dared not recognize him as the powerful commander of the entire Brazilian Navy. Fortunately, Fang Lang remembered every bit of his time with them.
After asking the two of them for their opinions, they were directly promoted to second lieutenants, with one serving as his adjutant and the other serving as a second lieutenant platoon leader in the Marine Corps.
Qi Qingshan saw Fang Lang's nervousness and remembered that before charging on the battlefield, he would tremble all over because of nervousness, but a puff of cigarette could calm him down.
He silently took out Fang Lang's cigars from his bag, took out one and cut off the end with cigar scissors, then reached out and handed it over.
Fang Lang looked at the handed cigar, took it with a smile and said:
"Qingshan, do you want to go up to Shanghai and have a look?"
Qi Qingshan slid a match, blocked the sea breeze with his hand, came close to Fang Lang and said:
"Of course. I also want to see grandpa and his family's hometown. I don't know what grandpa and his family's hometown is like and whether there are any relatives there."
"Yes! If our group hadn't been together all the time and not separated, we would probably have forgotten that we still have roots here."
As immigrants, if it weren't for the scarcity of Chinese in Brazil, we all went to Brazil in the same group, and we have always hugged each other to keep warm. It is estimated that by the time Fang Lang and his generation had already completely integrated into Brazil.
Maybe you don’t even speak Chinese anymore! This is why Banana Man appears. But these Chinese in Brazil have been gathering together to form a small village.
People mostly intermarry and are more or less related to each other. In particular, the elderly have always been able to communicate in dialects, that is, Portuguese is only used by their parents when they go out.
However, when you return to the village, you will switch back to communicating in Chinese. Therefore, our inheritance has never been lost. In fact, the same situation was true for Japanese immigrants in Brazil during this period.
Fang Lang took a deep puff of the cigar, feeling the taste in his mouth, and gradually relaxed. After spitting out the smoke, Fang Lang enjoyed the fragrance left in his mouth.
His anxiety gradually calmed down, and he finally understood why so many people like to smoke. Fang Lang, who had always felt that he had no craving for cigarettes, began to consider whether he would use cigars to calm his mood in the future.
"Qingshan, we probably won't have the chance to visit our hometown this time. However, after the war is over, we will have a lot of opportunities. Then we will arrange an opportunity for you to go back to your old man's hometown to visit. Let’s see how it goes.”
"Really? That's great. It's a pity that our old man is no longer here. I'm going to look for the things he left behind when I go back and see if I can find the specific address of my hometown."
While chatting with Qi Qingshan, time passed little by little.
