This situation reminded Fang Lang of a joke about France in later generations: "No one can occupy Paris before France surrenders!"
It turned out that Fang Lang didn't believe that the French really liked to surrender.
After all, the French army put up a tenacious resistance during World War I.
But now, Fang Lang has deeply experienced the speed of the French surrender.
"Why did you censor us? Who ordered you to do that?"
Fang Lang was not polite and asked directly while pointing the gun at the other person's head.
Because Fang Lang discovered that this French officer was obviously targeting them, which made Fang Lang wonder if there was any conspiracy.
Otherwise, why don’t other passengers getting off the plane need to be screened?
Why don't we just investigate these people?
...
...
Is it because of racial discrimination again?
Your mother! Modern France is almost becoming the France of black people, and you still discriminate against me?
Hearing Fang Lang's question, the lieutenant hesitated.
Seeing that the lieutenant was unwilling to answer his questions, Fang Lang opened the safety of his pistol without hesitation.
The lieutenant's face turned pale instantly, and he said quickly:
"We were ordered to review possible treasure hunting teams that might come to Germany to look for Nazi treasures."
After hearing this, Fang Lang was speechless.
We are such a large group of people, we don't look like a treasure hunting team at all.
The treasure hunting team must enter the village secretly, no matter what, no guns allowed!
As for the famous treasure like the Nazi treasure, Fang Lang had naturally heard of it before.
But Fang Lang didn't know the whereabouts of the treasure, so he never thought about looking for it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered Germany, he was mistaken by the French occupation forces as a treasure hunter looking for treasure.
In fact, Fang Lang felt that instead of looking for possible treasure troves in Germany and Austria, the Allies would be better off asking Switzerland to hand over the wealth that the Germans had stored in Swiss banks.
According to the documentary records that Fang Lang watched later, much of the wealth that Germany plundered from Europe was deposited in Swiss banks.
Unfortunately, after negotiations between the US government and the Swiss government, the US government only asked Swiss banks to return more than 200 million US dollars of German government property.
However, the wealth deposited in Swiss banks in private names could never be withdrawn from Swiss banks.
Because most of the depositors had died in the war.
Later, when many descendants of depositors went to Swiss banks to withdraw money, the Swiss banks asked them to provide the depositors' death certificates and their relationship with the depositors.
Due to the chaotic situation at the time, the government was unable to issue death certificates.
Therefore, later American statistical agencies calculated that the deposits that could not be withdrawn from Swiss banks simply because of the death of depositors amounted to more than 7 billion US dollars.
However, in order to obtain loan funds for post-war reconstruction from Swiss banks, Britain, France and other countries promised not to pursue these wealth.
This made Switzerland, a neutral country, the biggest winner in the European war besides the United States.
And the greatest wealth was gained without bloodshed.
Of course, none of this has anything to do with Fang Lang. Fang Lang just wants to recruit qualified talents in Germany.
"Which eye of yours makes us look like a treasure hunting team? Is there such a blatant treasure hunting team?"
No one knew what the French lieutenant was thinking. He obviously regarded them as a large treasure hunting team that had obtained clear clues.
This made Fang Lang very helpless.
If I knew where the German Nazi treasures were, I would have found an opportunity to sneak into Germany and make a fortune during the war. Why would I have to wait until now?
“I’m sorry, sir.
I just saw that you came here by a special plane and there were a lot of people, so..."
This time Fang Lang was really amused by the French lieutenant's bizarre train of thought.
When they came here on a special plane, didn’t you ever think that the other person was a person of status?
Isn't this causing trouble for your superiors?
Fang Lang really didn't want to pay attention to him.
"Call your superior! I have to have a good talk with him."
The French lieutenant was obviously relieved, knowing that his life was saved.
But when he thought about calling his superior, he felt sad again.
At this time, he also realized that the man in front of him who was so confident to meet his superior might really be a big shot as he said.
In this way, he wouldn't have to worry about his life, but his official hat might be in danger.
"Sir, no, sir, I...I..."
This kid obviously didn't want his superior to know that he had done something stupid, and wanted Fang Lang to let him go.
But how could Fang Lang tolerate his bad habits? He directly hit his head with the gun, let go of his hand and said:
"Get up and make a phone call. I don't want to talk nonsense with you anymore."
Fang Lang kicked the French lieutenant from behind, signaling him to open the door quickly and go out to make a phone call.
The French lieutenant had no choice but to bite the bullet, open the door of the interrogation room, raise his hands, and walk out first.
When the French soldiers outside saw this situation, they drew their guns and prepared to point them at this side.
The guards who were also waiting outside noticed something unusual and immediately drew their guns and pointed them at the French soldiers around them.
For a moment, the scene was full of tension.
Fang Lang stood behind the French lieutenant, avoiding exposing himself to the guns of the French soldiers, and whispered to the French lieutenant:
"If you don't want things to get out of hand, have your men put down their guns."
The French lieutenant was also shocked when he saw the situation outside, and said quickly:
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, everyone put down your guns, this is the Allied Forces. I'm going to call the commander first."
After hearing what the lieutenant said, the French soldiers immediately lowered their guns.
Fang Lang's guards did step forward without hesitation and disarmed the French soldiers.
Zhuang Xintian also quickly stood beside Fang Lang and whispered to him:
"Boss, are you okay?"
Shaking his head, Fang Lang signaled Zhuang Xintian to take the French lieutenant to make a phone call.
Fortunately, this is an office area and there are no other airport passengers. Otherwise, if the situation here was seen by the airport passengers, the French would probably be embarrassed.
After thinking for a while, Fang Lang said to Zhuang Xintian:
"Tell the soldiers to unload their bullets and return their guns to them! We are all allies, so don't embarrass the other side."
"Yes, boss!"
Now all the French soldiers breathed a sigh of relief.
Fang Lang ignored them and just found a place to sit down and lit a cigar.
He was not afraid that the French would send more reinforcements to surround them.
The French soldiers here are actually the same as hostages. If the other party wants to expand its influence, Fang Lang will no longer be polite to him.
Soon, an officer wearing a French major's uniform came in a jeep and stopped suddenly outside the airport office building.
He rushed directly to the office building in a hurry.
I don't know what the French lieutenant said to his superior. It seemed that the superior had no idea whether the office building might be in danger at that time.
Instead, he rushed into the office as if he was home, without even looking at his surroundings, and went straight to the French lieutenant and started to scold him.
Fang Lang knew French, so he understood it as soon as he heard it.
This French lieutenant obviously made this mistake not for the first time, and was scolded to death, but he dared not say a word.
The French major was still not satisfied after cursing, so he kicked him hard and then turned around to look at the situation around him.
I don’t know if it was because he was visibly relieved to see the soldiers still carrying their weapons on their backs.
Finally, his eyes fell on Fang Lang, who was sitting on the sofa and smoking a cigar with a leisurely expression on his face.
When he saw Fang Lang's skin color, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and then looked at the Brazilian guards who occupied advantageous positions around him.
He came directly in front of Fang Lang, stood at attention and saluted before saying:
"Hello, sir. I am Guillaume Remy, a major in the French occupation forces in Germany. I am very sorry for the misunderstanding that occurred today."
Seeing that the other party's attitude was very good, Fang Lang did not act aggressively.
He just waved his hand and said:
"I am Captain Fang Lang of the Brazilian Navy. Major Remi, please take a seat."
It’s not like Fang Lang is a big shot, he’s not even willing to move his butt.
But, as a victim at this moment, if Fang Lang behaves too easily, these French guys might take advantage of him.
The French are notoriously arrogant, and today Fang Lang is going to be even more arrogant than them.
Major Remi's heart sank when he saw Fang Lang's expressionless face.
France is a big country. In his mind, as a French major, he was already giving Fang Lang a huge face by being able to come in person to deal with this small dispute.
Although Fang Lang held a military rank of colonel, whose authenticity was unclear, a second-rate country like Brazil actually acted like a big shot in front of him, which made him feel that the other party was somewhat ungrateful.
However, for the sake of the overall situation, Major Remi suppressed his dissatisfaction and said to Fang Lang with a very professional smile:
"Mr. Fang, I apologize to you on behalf of my man for his rude behavior."
Fang Lang smiled when he heard that he no longer addressed him as "sir" but instead called him by his name, obviously not wanting to be lowered by his military rank.
He did not bother about the other party's address, but said to Major Remi:
"Mr. Major, the things that happened before were indeed some misunderstandings. Now that they have passed, we should not take them to heart anymore.
This time I had the audacity to enter your occupied area without reporting in advance, so I am indeed to blame.
Now I want to visit the port and meet the commander of the occupation army. I wonder if you can help introduce me to him."
Major Remi heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Fang Lang did not continue to dwell on what had just happened.
Hearing that the other party wanted to visit the commander of the occupying forces was obviously a sign of surrender.
He smiled and said with satisfaction:
"Of course, no problem! If you need, I can make a phone call and make an appointment for you."
When Fang Lang heard that an appointment was required, he thought it was really too much!
But if you think about it, the commander of the occupying force of an entire state might be a general, so it is understandable that he has a bigger rank.
"Okay, let's find a place to rest first. If the commander has a reply, he can come to us, okay?"
"Oh! Mr. Fang, you haven't found a place to stay yet? If so, I can take you to a hotel closer to our occupation headquarters.
Rest assured, this is the closest place to the occupation headquarters, so it is definitely the safest hotel in Stuttgart.”
I don't know if the other party really meant well, or if he said that on purpose because he didn't want Fang Lang and the others to leave his sight.
Fortunately, Fang Lang had no evil intentions and didn't care.
We are unfamiliar with this place, so it would be great to have a local garrison officer to lead us to find a place to rest.
But when he heard him say that this was the safest hotel, Fang Lang was stunned and asked:
"What? Is Stuttgart still unsafe now? Are there still German devils resisting?"
