Fang Lang naturally noticed the other party's expression, and unconsciously began to plan how to win over this general who was obviously not taken seriously in the army.
Of course, this is the first time the two of them have met. They don't know each other well, so it's impossible to speak directly. They can only take the next step after they return and investigate the background of Major General Tabio Mike.
Major General Tabio Mike turned around and looked at the surrounding environment. He saw that there were many navy and army generals paying attention to this area. He couldn't get too close to Fang Lang, so he could only raise his empty wine glass. Sign to the waiter not far away.
After the other party came over to add drinks to the two of them, Major General Tabio Mike raised his glass again and said to Fang Lang:
“With General Fang’s auspicious words, I hope our division will have the opportunity to be assigned to General Fang’s jungle warfare training base and receive a complete jungle warfare training.
Please take care of General Fang when the time comes. "
Hearing this, Fang Lang smiled slightly, raised his glass and said to the other party:
"General Mike is so polite. Everyone takes care of each other. After the banquet, we will have the opportunity to get together."
Major General Tabio Mike didn't expect Fang Lang to be so straightforward. After thinking about it, he didn't refuse. He touched Fang Lang's wine glass lightly, drank the wine in one gulp again, and nodded calmly. , then turned and left.
Fang Lang was still a little surprised as to why the other party turned around and left without speaking, but as soon as the other party left, a voice came from behind him:
"General Fang, congratulations on such a great victory."
Hearing this voice, Fang Lang turned around with a smile and said:
"Haha... I'm joking. This is not a big victory. There are only more than 2,000 rebels in total."
It turned out that it was Air Force Secretary General Nairo Mora who came over with a wine glass. No wonder Major General Tabio Mack took the initiative to avoid it. Apparently he didn't want people to hear that he, an army general, was complaining about the navy general.
Fang Lang would not blame General Nairo Mora for interrupting his chat. After all, this was not a good place to talk.
"Brother, just tell me this, but don't tell the army officers!
Otherwise, be careful of others falling out with you. "
After saying that, he laughed involuntarily.
Fang Lang also laughed when he saw this.
Then General Nero Mora lowered his voice and said:
"Who was the army general just now? He took the initiative to chat with you, but the Minister of the Army was very dissatisfied!"
Hearing this, Fang Lang finally understood why this guy took the initiative to interrupt his chat. He was obviously worried that he would be resented by the Minister of War.
However, Fang Lang doesn't work for the Minister of War, so he doesn't care about the other party's attitude towards him.
He smiled nonchalantly and said:
"This is also the first time I met him. He was said to be the division commander of the Army's Sixth Division, Major General Tabio Mike, because he heard that we had built a jungle warfare training base in the Amazon rainforest and wanted to know more about the situation."
General Nairo Mora obviously did not come to ask about the chat content between the two, but Fang Lang still chose to tell the truth to the other party, hoping to use his mouth to spread the chat content between the other party and himself, so as to avoid causing disadvantage to the other party's work. Impact.
Hearing Fang Lang explain to himself, Nairo Mora was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, smiled at Fang Lang, smiled understandingly and said:
"The elders in the Army Department are very arrogant. It's rare to see someone take the initiative to make friends. It seems that Major General Tabio Mike is not doing well in the Army!"
Then he skipped the topic and said:
"Brother, you really taught me a good lesson this time!
I thought you would really use the Marine Corps to wipe out the rebels. Unexpectedly, you directly mobilized all the bombers in your fleet and launched a massive bombing.
Wonderful, really wonderful.
When General Crook took the initiative to ask for war, I knew that you must have a complete plan, but I didn't expect that you would use your naval aviation.
If I had known that this was the case, I would have shamelessly stepped in.
Give our air force some military merit. "
Fang Lang laughed loudly when he heard this and said:
"Brother, you are wrong to think this way. If your Air Force really cooperates with us, the Army will be nervous, and your life will not be easy by then.
After all, the army may not be able to do anything to our navy, but your air force is still very weak.
I think the biggest winner this time may be your Air Force. "
General Nairo Mora was stunned by Fang Lang's words, and for a moment he couldn't figure out what Fang Lang meant.
He raised his eyes and looked around to make sure that no one was standing around the two of them. He put his arm directly on Fang Lang's shoulders, hugged Fang Lang's shoulders and walked to the edge of the banquet hall. He came to a small Go to the balcony and make sure no one is outside.
After taking two quick steps and pulling Fang Lang outside, he quickly lowered his voice and said:
"Brother, what do you mean by this? Please tell me in detail."
Seeing this, Fang Lang smiled slightly, raised his glass and touched it lightly with the other party, and looked at the surrounding environment. The atmosphere outside the balcony was obviously much more relaxed than in the banquet hall.
I saw a small table and two small chairs on the small balcony. After taking a sip of wine, I pulled out a stool and sat down.
Upon seeing this, Major General Nairo Mora turned around and gently closed the door leading to the balcony, then sat next to Fang Lang and waited for Fang Lang's answer.
】
"We Chinese have an idiom called "When the snipe and the clam quarrel, the fisherman benefits." It means that the two parties are at loggerheads, and as a result, a third party benefits.
The current situation is that our navy has won this victory, but the army is obviously dissatisfied and will definitely try every means to suppress us.
And this time is your Air Force's opportunity.
Think about it, we used bombers to carry out large-scale bombing against the rebels this time, and we achieved very good results. I believe you are not the only ones who have seen the important role of bombers on the battlefield.
The Army will also see it, but since you have separated from the Army and formed a separate army, it is obviously impossible for the Army to continue to have bombers.
Then this time..."
Having said this, Fang Lang stopped talking. Instead, he turned his head and looked at the night sky in the distance. He put the wine glass under his lips and took a gentle sip with a relaxed and comfortable look on his face.
And Major General Nairo Mora on the side, if he still doesn't understand what Fang Lang means by this time, he is really stupid.
He slapped his thigh hard and said:
"Haha... I understand what I mean, haha... I'm right. In order to suppress your navy this time, the Army will definitely not let you expand the size of your naval aviation force.
But if they want to get support from the air, they must support our Air Force in developing bombers. In this way, our Air Force may really get another piece of the cake from next year's military budget! Ha ha......
What I said makes so much sense. Thank you so much this time! "
As he spoke, he seemed to have thought of something. He looked up and looked around. When he saw everyone, he quickly approached Fang Lang and lowered his voice:
"Brother, do you think we should take the opportunity to propose a research plan for an autonomous bomber?"
When Fang Lang heard this, he felt happy. Isn't this another business coming to his door?
But on the surface, Fang Lang thought for a while and then said with a blank expression:
"This is for your Air Force to decide internally. I have no objection to this."
"What I mean is, does your Fangyuan Aircraft Manufacturing Company have relevant technical reserves in this area?"
Nairo Mora continued to lower his voice and look at Fang Langdao.
Fang Lang smiled and shrugged:
"As long as we can afford it, we will definitely be able to build the model you want. You know, Mr. Horton of our company is engaged in bomber research."
Hearing this, Nairo Mora was overjoyed and quickly raised his eyebrows at Fang Lang and laughed.
When Fang Lang saw this, he was also smiling. He raised his wine glass and gestured to Major General Nairo Mora. The two of them clinked their glasses tacitly and reached an agreement.
After Fang Lang took another sip of wine, he seemed to remember something and said:
"However, this time is not without its disadvantages for you."
When General Nairo Mora, who was secretly proud of himself, heard this, his laughter stopped suddenly, and he looked at Fang Lang with some uncertainty:
"Brother, where did you start talking about this?"
Fang Lang looked at General Nero Mora, who was about to get carried away, shook his wine glass, turned his gaze to the night sky, and said unhurriedly:
"This time, in addition to using bombers for bombing, we also used other types of aircraft."
As soon as these words came out, General Nero Mora immediately understood what Fang Lang meant. After thinking for a while, his heart tightened.
The fingers holding the wine glass unconsciously exerted a little force.
After a long while, he looked at Fang Lang and said:
"What I mean is that the Army may also realize the role of Air Force transport aircraft in quickly deploying troops, and may intervene in the airborne force project."
Fang Lang didn't turn his head, still shaking the wine glass in his hand leisurely, and asked in a relaxed tone:
"What do you think?"
I have to say that Fang Lang's scruples are very possible. After all, although the army later attacked two small towns and got a little credit this time, everyone knew what was going on.
This is just a shameless method adopted by the Army in order not to lose too ugly.
But smart people in the army will definitely take out Fang Lang's tactics for in-depth study and realize the important role of bombers. Of course, they can also realize the important role played by transport aircraft in this battle.
Combined with the airborne tactics that have been widely used in other countries, the Army will definitely want to establish its own airborne force.
General Nairo Mora, who had been smiling just now, turned pale in an instant, and almost broke the wine glass with his fingers.
After thinking for a while, he slowly said:
"No, I want to take the first step and propose to Marshal Morais the Air Force's idea of building airborne troops early tomorrow morning."
Hearing this, Fang Lang turned to look at the other party and said slowly:
"I wouldn't wait until tomorrow if I were you."
After speaking, his eyes turned behind him and towards the direction of the banquet hall.
General Nero Mora still didn't understand what Fang Lang meant. He suggested that he take advantage of the banquet to proactively find General Moraes to put forward his ideas.
After just thinking about it for a moment, Nero Mora stood up directly, raised his glass to Fang Lang and said:
"Brother is right, we really shouldn't wait until tomorrow."
Fang Lang did not stand up, but picked up the wine glass and gestured to the other party before saying:
"I think this is a very good opportunity. The Army just needs bomber support from your Air Force. At this time, if you propose that the Air Force form its own airborne force, it might actually be approved.
come on! "
Hearing Fang Lang's words, General Nairo Mora's face looked a little better, but he did not feel relieved.
After all, the establishment of a bomber force by the Air Force will obviously improve the combat effectiveness of the Air Force. This matter is obviously not the Army's request for the Air Force.
Maybe the Army will offer this as a condition in exchange for supporting the other side in forming airborne troops!
He understood what Fang Lang meant after thinking about it for a while.
It seems that I have to refuse to establish a bomber force now. After all, since the Navy already has a bomber force, the Air Force is not in a hurry to have a bomber force, which seems to be a good excuse.
It just so happened that he could put forward a plan to develop a new bomber and expressed that he wanted a domestically produced new bomber to delay the equipment of the bomber.
