When the two heard the price Fang Lang said, they froze where they were. This was obviously much lower than the price they had known.
Zhong Ze said without hesitation:
"Commander Fang, I don't know if it's inconvenient for us to use the radio. I would like to report directly to the higher-ups now."
He knew that the higher-ups would definitely agree to this matter, but it was obviously not something he could make the final decision on.
Fang Lang waved his hand nonchalantly and said:
"Of course no problem, I don't need you to answer me right away."
After thinking about the future fate of the national army, he said:
"I not only recruit workers, but also help wealthy people who want to immigrate, buy a large farm or open a factory abroad.
Brazil is a vast country with a sparse population and very cheap land prices. I welcome my compatriots to settle down here. You don’t have to worry about safety at all, I am your safety guarantee.”
...
...
Although Zhong Ze didn't understand why Fang Lang said that, he nodded repeatedly to show that he understood.
Fang Lang also ordered Qi Qingshan to take Zhong Ze to the telecommunications room and let him contact his superiors.
The outcome of the matter was obvious. How could Boss Dai from the Military Control Commission miss such an opportunity to make a fortune?
I agreed almost without hesitation.
Fang Lang no longer participated in the subsequent matters, but directly arranged for Qi Qingshan to connect with them.
When Zhong Ze and his companions left the House with three Japanese prisoners early the next morning, Fang Lang could sense their inexpressible joy from afar.
However, Fang Lang no longer cares about these things.
He no longer had any interest in staying here to attack the Japanese army's transportation lines. What he wanted more was to see if he could steal a division from Okinawa.
If you can’t study on an aircraft carrier, you can also learn about large-scale aircraft dispatching at the airport!
As far as Fang Lang knows, the Americans seem to have a rule that the captain of an aircraft carrier must be a former pilot.
If someone has this rule, there must be a reason for it.
There happened to be two American pilots as guests on his ship. How could he not take this opportunity to build good relationships with them and learn some relevant knowledge?
Then Fang Lang began to return under the pretext of escorting two American pilots back to Okinawa.
General Clark, who was far away in Okinawa, was not quite convinced when he heard that Fang Lang, the guy who clamored to teach the Japanese a lesson, actually returned to the Okinawa base to escort two American pilots.
However, considering that the House had already sailed for several days, he did not refuse and agreed to the House's request to return.
Ever since Fang Lang was promoted to commander of the First Fleet, he has been training Reina as the new captain of the House.
Therefore, Reina was in command of the House most of the time.
Fang Lang had plenty of time to waste, and soon he became familiar with the two American pilots.
Of course, this was Fang Lang's own opinion. As his adjutant, Qi Qingshan felt that the two American pilots were probably more scared by being drugged.
They get drunk three times a day, it would be strange if they don't have a good relationship!
When the USS House returned to Okinawa at midnight on July 17, Fang Lang insisted on driving the two back to the base himself.
The two men were so moved that a colonel officer humbled himself and made friends with the two lieutenants.
In other words, Americans don't like swearing brotherhood, otherwise they would have done the Three Heroes of Peach Garden.
When the jeep drove into the U.S. Air Force base, Fang Lang even expressed his desire to praise the two men's bravery to their superiors.
They went straight to Colonel Gaylor Meyer of the U.S. Air Force base, who praised the two men to the skies, making the two American pilots, who were confident that they were the best in the world, blush.
Colonel Meyer was even more confused. If they were so powerful, why didn't they fly out of the solar system directly? How could they be defeated?
However, when others praise your subordinates for being capable, isn’t that just a disguised way of praising yourself?
Before he knew it, Colonel Meyer was beginning to feel a little elated.
When Fang Lang expressed his desire to learn from the heroic U.S. Air Force, he patted his chest and agreed without hesitation.
The next morning, Fang Lang took his luggage and went directly to Colonel Meyer to express his desire to stay at the Air Force base to learn advanced experience. Only then did Colonel Meyer react.
But he had already agreed to it last night, so there was no point in saying anything more, so I just arranged accommodation for him.
Next, Fang Lang began his journey of learning from masters at the US Air Force base.
He learned how to fly a plane, how to maintain a plane, aircraft tactics, and flight scheduling.
He learned everything there was in the U.S. Air Force base, no matter what type of aircraft it was, whether it was a fighter or a transport plane.
He even insisted on transferring ten of his own fighter planes and pilots to join the battle, but was finally persuaded by Colonel Meyer.
Although Colonel Meyer felt like he had fallen into a big pit, he had to admire Fang Lang's enthusiasm and initiative in learning.
At first, at eight o'clock every morning, Fang Lang's subordinates would report the situation of the fleet and some matters that needed Fang Lang's attention for him to handle.
Later, Fang Lang found that after dealing with these things, he would not be able to meet Colonel Meyer anymore, so he directly changed the reporting time to lunch time.
In the morning, I followed Colonel Meyer and learned from him. At lunch, after finishing my own work, I went to other places to learn about other positions.
This made Colonel Meyer seriously impart his knowledge to Fang Lang.
Except for work that required confidentiality under orders, Colonel Meyer basically kept nothing to himself about other matters.
Of course, this had nothing to do with Fang Lang's frequent sending of small gifts and local specialties. This was purely Colonel Meyer's heartfelt appreciation for Fang Lang's eagerness to learn.
Of course, Fang Lang did not do nothing but study during this period.
For example, around July 30, he specifically contacted his family in Brazil and asked them to start arranging a ship to go to the country to implement the immigration plan.
He also asked his father Fang Xinshan to personally lead a ship and crew members who could drive at least two ships to accompany the fleet.
When the ship set out, in addition to carrying the food that was urgently needed in the country, it also carried penicillin, which had just been put into production, and brought as much as possible.
After unloading the supplies back home, he led an empty ship and a crew capable of driving two ships and waited for his own notice.
The most important thing is to bring a teacher who has carefully studied the ideological education materials written by Fang Lang, which integrates the knowledge of success and MLM, and who has a strong sense of identification with Chinese civilization.
He needs to brainwash all the immigrants on board.
The time spent studying passed very quickly. Since his trip to Shanghai, Fang Lang has not gone out to sea again.
The USS House went out to carry out the mission in accordance with the orders of the US Navy.
In fact, during the learning process, Fang Lang was still looking forward to it, and paid special attention to the bombers taking off from Okinawa on August 6 and August 9.
Hoping to witness the historic moment of mounting a nuclear bomb with one's own eyes.
In the end, he was disappointed. Although the US military had flight missions these two days and planes were constantly taking off and landing, it was a pity that the nuclear bombs did not depart from Okinawa at all!
It was not until many years later that he learned, after the U.S. military declassified the documents, that the plane that dropped the nuclear bomb took off from Tinian Island in the Northern Mariana Islands.
On the evening of August 8, the Soviet Union also officially notified Japan that it would be loyal to its alliance obligations, tear up the Soviet-Japanese Non-Aggression Pact, and formally declare war on Japan on August 9.
The next day, the same day the second atomic bomb was dropped, 1.5 million Soviet troops launched an attack on the 700,000-strong Kwantung Army in the northeast.
On August 10, Japan sent a note of surrender to the Soviet Union, the United States, Britain and China through the neutral countries of Switzerland and Sweden.
Therefore, historians have two predictions about the reasons for Japan's surrender. Some say it was because of the US atomic bomb, while others say it was because of the Soviet Union's attack on the Northeast, which cut off the retreat route to the mainland that Japan had reserved for itself.
But no matter what the reason, since Japan sent out a note of surrender, it meant that Japan's surrender entered the countdown, so the US military had already begun to allocate the order of troops entering Japan and the areas to be occupied.
The Brazilian expeditionary force was once excluded, which Fang Lang could not tolerate.
I have traveled thousands of miles just to set foot on the Japanese mainland as an occupying force. Now you are telling me that it has nothing to do with the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. This is simply intolerable.
Fang Lang directly blocked General Clark in his office. They were all allies and had come from afar to help.
We had repeated communication for more than three hours on many aspects, including my historical mission as a Chinese.
Finally, he said that his subordinates found ten dark and thin Okinawan old women in a corner of Okinawa.
If he could not participate in the landing on the Japanese mainland, he would get his good brother John drunk and lock him in the same room with these old women.
As for what happens in the room at that time, Fang Lang will not be responsible.
Finally, General Clark agreed to coordinate and allow Fang Lang to land on the Japanese mainland as an occupying force.
However, there is no need to think about Tokyo, and you can only choose other cities.
Fang Lang readily chose Osaka.
As for why he chose Osaka, Fang Lang certainly had his own reasons.
In fact, everyone knows very well that the so-called occupying forces, landing and occupying is only external, the real purpose is to gain benefits after the occupation.
The Brazilian expeditionary force led by Fang Lang was very weak because it only had one Fletcher-class destroyer and a submarine captured from Germany, and its contribution to the Pacific War was almost zero.
It is certain that the United States treats Japan as its own private territory and is unwilling to allow Brazil, which has made little contribution, to participate in the distribution of benefits.
Finally, considering the relationship with the alliance, the entire Brazilian expeditionary force only had 500 marines and was unable to gain much benefit in Japan.
After repeatedly weighing the pros and cons, he agreed to allow the Brazilian Expeditionary Force to participate in the occupation of Japan.
As for whether the Brazilian expeditionary force would cause trouble after landing in Japan, the Americans were not worried. With more than 500 marines and naval crew members, there were only about 700 people. How much trouble could they cause?
Moreover, as the second largest city in Japan during World War II, Osaka has always been a key bombing target of the US military. As of July 24, 1945, Osaka Castle had been subjected to thirty air raids by the US military.
During the multiple air raids on Osaka by the US military, a total of 10,388 Osaka citizens were burned to death, and the affected population reached 1,135,140 people. 310,955 houses were burned down. Osaka’s most prosperous downtown commercial district was completely burned down, and industrial production capacity basically collapsed.
Even if the Brazilian expeditionary force could really search in the Osaka city area that had been bombed into ruins, what great treasures could they find!
The US military's main targets are Japan's large military industrial enterprises. Although there is an Osaka Artillery Factory in Osaka, it has already been bombed.
The factory buildings have disappeared from the ground, so what treasures can be left for the expeditionary force?
Even if there are still treasures, they are just some leftovers for the powerful United States, so it doesn’t matter if they are rewarded to the little brother.
