Fang Lang handed the phone over. Lieutenant Lei Qi, who had been watching him make the call, had no idea who was on the other end of the line. He quickly stepped forward to take the phone and said:
"Hello sir, I'm Syrio Rage... yes... okay... I understand sir."
The call ended soon. Fang Lang took the phone from Lieutenant Lei Qi and said:
"Brother, I won't make things difficult for you!"
Blackwell laughed heartily and said:
"Of course not. You are a senior general in our army. Serving you is one of the responsibilities of the Intelligence Bureau. Don't worry, if there is anything you need, just order him to do it."
Fang Lang also laughed and said:
"That's what I've been waiting for. I'm going to Rio in two days, and we'll have a drink together then."
After ending the call with Blackwell, Fang Lang looked at Lieutenant Reich, who was standing in front of him with a serious face, and said:
...
...
"Can we make the Yakubu family disappear tomorrow afternoon?"
"Report, sir, our intelligence agency can't do it alone."
“What support do you need?”
"At least three hundred professional soldiers are needed."
"Is that enough?"
“That’s enough!”
"You have three hundred people and a whole day. I want to see the results before five o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
"Yes, sir!"
Fang Lang called Duarte in front of Reich and asked him to transfer 300 people from the Marine Corps to Lieutenant Reich in front of him.
Looking at Lieutenant Leiqi's back as he turned and walked out, Fang Lang suddenly smiled.
The reason why Fang Lang suddenly forced Lieutenant Lei Qi in front of him to work for him was because Fang Lang smelled a dangerous aura from him the moment he walked in.
This aura didn't mean he was going to threaten his safety. Rather, the first impression he gave Fang Lang was that he was a dangerous character, and his intuition told him that this person was very powerful.
Although I don't know why he is still only a second lieutenant in his thirties, this is very normal in the Brazilian army. If you have no money and no background, it is easy to get lost in the crowd and find it difficult to stand out.
Since Fang Lang felt that he was very capable, his first thought was to recruit him for his own use. Recruiting him directly with a nice tone might not have any effect, so he could only be tough and let him work directly for him.
After working for him once or twice, he gradually got used to it, and it became natural to assign him work later.
Of course, the prerequisite is that Fang Lang can convince his superiors.
Can Fang Lang convince his superiors? Obviously he can. Although Fang Lang and Blackwell are good friends, Fang Lang feels that Blackwell is not suitable for intelligence work.
But this second lieutenant named Lei Qi made Fang Lang feel that he was born to do this job.
I just don't know if I offended someone and was sent to a remote place like Natal.
This also gave Fang Lang the opportunity to discover him.
After handing over these troubles, Fang Lang suddenly felt as if he had relaxed. It seemed that there was something wrong with his original thinking!
Isn't management supposed to be about putting the right people in the right positions and letting them do their jobs according to your requirements?
I can date girls and enjoy life instead of being so busy like I am now!
Looking at the scenery outside the window and smoking a cigar, Fang Lang suddenly remembered that he didn't know what happened to the more than 2,000 fellow villagers he had rescued, and he didn't see Qi Qingshan come back to report.
Could it be that I can’t find a doctor?
I felt a little uneasy, so I decided to go and see for myself.
At this time, in a large warehouse at the Natal Naval Base, Chen Hongqing was experiencing the joy of surviving the disaster.
Chen Hongqing is from Tianjin and is 43 years old this year.
Before the Japanese occupied Tianjin, they ran a textile factory in Tianjin. However, due to various suppressions by the Japanese and the fact that the machinery and equipment were not as advanced as those of the Japanese, the factory could only barely maintain its operations.
Compared with most of his peers who were forced to close down and sold their factories to the Japanese, the result was different in that he had a group of old friends who supported each other, allowing his factory to survive under the siege of the Japanese.
Unfortunately, such days did not last long. After the Japanese occupied Tianjin, they forcibly acquired his factory and unified Tianjin's textile industry.
Chen Hongqing is a businessman who has been influenced by traditional culture since childhood. He is very cultured, values promises over profits when doing business, and believes that integrity comes first.
Therefore, although he is not very old, he has made a name for himself in Tianjin's business circle and made many friends who share the same ideals as him.
As a Confucian businessman with a strong sense of patriotism, he certainly could not watch his own business become a facilitator of Japanese aggression.
He could only bear the pain and burn half of his body and blood in fire.
This really offended the Japanese, who arrested Chen Hongqing directly and tortured him severely. In the end, all his family members were also imprisoned.
No one knew how much time had passed, but suddenly one day, they were stuffed into a ship, and after sailing for nearly half a month, they were transported to this place where it was summer all year round.
Many of his acquaintances traveled with him, mostly businessmen and their families who had not succumbed to the threat of the Japanese, and of course there were also some ordinary laborers.
After arriving at this place, everyone was basically cut off from the outside world and could only work non-stop every day in exchange for meager food rations.
After a few years, everyone's health broke down, and just when everyone thought that this was the end of their life.
A group of foreign soldiers speaking an incomprehensible foreign language suddenly broke into the mine and rescued everyone. Chen Hongqing noticed that the officer leading the team should be a compatriot.
Because he heard the officer asking everyone something in Chinese.
Unfortunately, after experiencing the long-term torture in the past few years, although Chen Hongqing is only in his forties, he looks like an old man in his fifties.
The officer did not communicate with him, and everyone was taken to a large base. There were soldiers patrolling nearby, and it looked like a military camp.
Originally, when Chen Hongqing thought that he and others were going to be sold out again, the person who had communicated with the officer told him a shocking news.
"Lao Li, are you saying that the commander told you that the Japanese surrendered?"
"Yes! That's what the young officer just told me."
"So can we go home now? It's been so many years, I wonder what our home looks like now."
"Then did they tell us where we are now? This place where there's no winter, isn't it? We're already at the end of the world!"
"What is the horizon? If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."
Looking at everyone's discussion, the man who had communicated with Qi Qingshan said:
"Everyone, please stop arguing. The commander just said that we have to wait for his superiors to decide how to deal with him. Everyone, take some time to rest and get well first."
"Old Li, did the commander tell me what's going on back home?"
"No! I didn't dare to ask! Well, the commander didn't say a few words to me. Didn't I tell you everything? I don't know anything more!"
Chen Hongqing knew the man who had communicated with the officer. His name was Li Tianbao. He was an apprentice at Tianjin Hongji Winery and had been working in the old Hong family's wine-making workshop.
It was said that they were about to become independent, but somehow the winery was raided by the Japanese and the owner, Lao Hong, died in jail.
Li Tianbao is a man who has been taking care of Lao Hong's wife and children who stayed behind in the family, and he has always treated Lao Hong's wife as his own mother.
Lao Hong's two children were even treated as his younger siblings. If it weren't for Li Tianbao's help at the mine, the orphans and widows left behind by Lao Hong would have died long ago.
Chen Hongqing still remembers that once a Japanese guard wanted to rape Lao Hong's daughter, Li Tianbao went crazy and was determined to fight the Japanese to the death.
The little devil's bayonet pierced his palm, but he didn't even make a sound. If the old devil in charge hadn't stepped in to stop it, Li Tianbao would have died long ago.
Of course, although Li Tianbao was not killed directly, he was tied to a wooden stake outside the mine and exposed to the sun for three days.
If it weren't for the children of the old Hong family who secretly fed him water and porridge, Li Tianbao would have been taken away by the King of Hell long ago.
Just as Chen Hongqing and others were still daydreaming, a young officer, under the protection of a group of soldiers, entered the large warehouse where they were temporarily housed.
Chen Hongqing could tell at a glance that the officer in front of him was definitely a high-ranking official. Judging from his appearance, he should be Asian, not Japanese, because he had never seen a Japanese who was so tall.
Just as Chen Hongqing was still looking at the young officer in front of him, he saw the young officer walking straight towards him.
After all, the place where he was lying was relatively close to the warehouse door.
"Grandpa, are you feeling unwell?"
Hearing the young man's fluent Chinese, Chen Hongqing's eyes suddenly turned red, and tears welled up in his eyes. He knew that he was saved and didn't have to go back to the dark mine.
Fang Lang looked at the skinny old man in front of him with red eyes, and understood the old man's excitement after surviving the disaster.
I reached out and held those calloused hands, then looked at them carefully in my own hands. The skin on his hands was rough, dark in color, and the joints were thick.
It looks like the hands of a typical manual laborer.
"Grandpa, don't cry yet. Don't worry! You are safe."
Chen Hongqing looked at the young officer in front of him and said words of comfort, but his tears could not be held back and flowed down his cheeks. Perhaps this was what it meant to have tears of an old man!
The voice choked with sobs:
"Thank you! Sir, thank you! I never thought that I, Chen Hongqing, would be saved one day."
“Mr. Chen, you’re welcome. We are all compatriots, and it is only natural for us to lend a helping hand when our compatriots are in trouble.
We have just come out of that devil's den, and our bodies need rest. Don't get too excited.
If you need any help, please tell us. We will do our best to help you within our capabilities.”
People nearby saw Fang Lang sitting next to Chen Hongqing. Looking at the armed guards beside him, although they were a little scared, they couldn't help but come closer out of curiosity.
Perhaps because of the fear of soldiers, no one spoke and just watched the conversation between Fang Lang and Chen Hongqing.
"Sir, have the Japanese really surrendered? How is things at home now?"
After finally suppressing the excitement in his heart, Chen Hongqing still couldn't help but ask Fang Lang the question that concerned him most.
With a gentle smile, Fang Lang nodded and said:
"Yes, just last month, the Japanese officially signed the surrender agreement and announced their surrender."
Now the people who had been listening to the conversation between the two could no longer contain their excitement and started shouting.
"Oh! Oh! The devils surrendered, the devils surrendered."
