"Of course, no problem, this is what I deserve, but what about the sick man on your ship? I have to get this old ship to the highest speed! I have to correct it, why are we going back to Singapore? Aren't you going to Japan? And I'm going back to Subic Bay, and that's the escort route I've received, and if it changes halfway, then I'll need a formal order from the fleet. "Captain Di Maggio is really not polite, just eat it, but he is a little confused about Hong Tao's destination.

"Oh, I thought you were coming from Changi Naval Base in Singapore, I'm not going to Singapore, I'm going to Japan as planned. By the way, I would like to tell you that the patient did not survive, but it was not because of you, she was in heaven half an hour after we made contact, Amen!" Hong Tao thought that the captain DiMaggio had misunderstood what he meant, and explained again.

"You're really well-informed, but the Changi base hasn't been built yet. Okay, let's be a little slower, I don't want to go back to Subic early, how about we get 10 knots, you can pick me up by helicopter, I'll wait at the stern, the transport boat will stain my dress. Oh, by the way, and her problems, may she rest in peace. "Captain DiMaggio is a bit egoistic, he rarely asks others what they want, a lot of the time he says what he wants to do, this is the standard American wealthy family style, they live a worry-free life, and the social security system is sound, so they rarely care about what others think, as long as they think about it, they do it, and they can always succeed.

Captain Don DiMaggio was younger than Hong Tao imagined, he was only six years older than Hong Tao. I am just 32 this year, but I have the rank of major, a mid-level officer of this age. It is also not very common in the US Navy. So Hong Tao began to think about it again, and inquired about his family background, and the results were a little different from what he thought, but there were similarities. Major Don DiMaggio did come from a good family, his father was a naval colonel, he commanded nuclear submarines before he retired, and now he is also a son of his father's business.

However, his path to promotion did not rely on his father's connections and connections. For a professional military family like him, who treats soldiers as a profession, that kind of promotion method cannot be mixed in the army and will be looked down upon by the officers. If according to the tradition of the US Navy, generals. He should have been a captain in the military now, but he and his brother were in good times, and the unit had not been idle since the day he joined the army at the age of 18. Scurrying around. Participated in almost all wars.

For a professional soldier, there is no hope without war, and only with war can there be a channel for accelerated promotion, and he sat on this channel, became a major all the way, and independently commanded a frigate. Although the ship is a little smaller, on this ship, he is the supreme commander. Don't underestimate the captain of the frigate. They are more popular in the Navy than the civilian commodore who sit in the office, and they have not only honors but also high allowances. Especially a unit like him that has been stationed abroad for many years.

As for the dress he was talking about, it was a snow-white naval dress, Hong Tao was very curious why he wore a dress to his ship, this was not a review of the troops, and there was no special commemorative event. Di Maggio's answer made Hong Tao laugh immediately, it is worth this person who likes beautiful women like himself, and he is still half an admirer of himself, mainly because he admires that he can pull so many women around him, and he has made so many children all over the world. He was dressed like a peacock, and he knew from his brother that there were many beautiful women on the Hongtao boat. This time he really caught up, not only the lada and Singh who accompanied him at the table were beautiful women, but also a noble female captain, and all the people Di Maggio saw on the ship were all women, young and not ugly.

"I don't know what you're on board, but I was ordered to accompany you all the way back to base. But now I know why the Indonesians are chasing you, if I were the captain of that destroyer, I wouldn't hit you with naval guns, just fire a Harpoon missile, and then come up and grab people, even if half of them are killed, the rest is enough. DiMaggio made a joke in front of Madame Bellivi, and the result was naturally the corners of the eyes and nostrils.

"You're too rich, when I retire, I'll be your captain, or the first mate. At that time, will you buy another Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and convert it into a yacht? I also know a few friends in the naval aviation, so why don't you come to your ship together! You buy a few old planes, let's change them, and they can still be used as carrier-based aircraft, and who dares to intercept you, take off a formation, and directly use torpedoes to kill it!" Di Maggio's imagination is richer than Hong Tao's, and when Hong Tao took him to see the former Soviet planes and tanks in his cabin, and let him get into the small submarine to try it out, he even said dirty words.

At his post, Di Maggio couldn't stay long on the Mouse Superman, and finally played with the omnidirectional drive system on the bridge before he took a few signed laser turntables given to him by Hong Tao and went back in a helicopter. In fact, it is not as comfortable for him to take a helicopter as a transport boat, because his frigate does not have a landing platform, and it has to be hung with wire ropes up and down, which is uncomfortable and unsafe. However, for him, this risk is negligible, and ensuring the cleanliness of the dress is the top priority.

Over the next two days, Captain DiMaggio made time to come over for dinner, and he studied food, women, wine, and cigars. On these issues, Hong Tao and he could talk for half a year, so the two quickly got closer, and when they broke up, they became friends, and they also left each other's home addresses and phone numbers, and made an appointment to go to Singapore together during the Christmas holiday. When the time comes, Di Maggio will lead the way, ready to pick up a large area of guns, and he says that he knows the local Fengyue place well.

"He's a disgrace in the navy!" DiMaggio walked on his front foot, and Madame Bailivi scolded on his back foot. For this cowboy-like and rude captain of the ship, Mrs. Bailivi looked down on ten thousand. Although Hong Tao is also this virtue, or even worse, but she thinks that Hong Tao is a civilian, and the requirements in this regard can be lowered, but Di Maggio is a professional soldier, or a middle-level officer and captain, and he has no gentlemanly demeanor at all, full of swearing, knives and forks rattle when eating, and never taste alcohol, one mouth is half a cup, too vulgar, and must be a garbage.

"What do you think of Mr. Levin?" Hong Tao didn't quite know what a nobleman should be, so he used Levin as an analogy to hear what Madame Bellevy had to say.

"Mr. Levin is a gentleman, at least he doesn't get his cigar wet. Madame Bellivi gave her answer, and by the way, Hong Tao and Di Maggio were also damaged.

"I probably understand what a gentleman looks like, unfortunately, the person you will live with and raise future generations with in the future is probably not a gentleman, you better prepare your mind in advance!" Hong Tao said very sincerely.

"I didn't promise you anything!" presumably with the first mate on the side, Madame Bellivy's face actually flushed.

"But you didn't say no, and that's a good start. Well, come to think of it, I still have a lot of work to do. Now the pursuers are gone, but what should I do with this boatload of people? You say how about I secretly throw them at the Hong Kong dock, pay them the fare, and then run away? So that no one will say that I am scum, right?" Hong Tao was really worried about this matter, he discussed it with Rada, Singh and Melinda, but unfortunately the strengths of the three of them were not in strategy, and the bullshit idea was not put forward to Hong Tao.

"Why do you want to turn a good thing into a bad thing? I think you should hold a high-profile press conference, no matter in any country, even if it is your enemy, he must applaud you at this time, what a great opportunity! You can let the whole world know that you have a kind heart, why do you run? I don't understand that you are afraid to sympathize with others?" Mrs. Bellevy obviously did not think the same as the Radha, she felt that it was a good thing, and since it was a good thing, there was no need to hide it, and it was normal to shout it loudly.

"You don't really understand, this matter involves political issues between countries and countries, and I don't know much about politics, so I have a lot of concerns. You see that this can't be done, things are still done according to what you say, but the protagonist is you, not me. As the captain of the ship, you are fully qualified to receive this honor, this honor is worn on the head of a nobleman, it is a shining crown, and it is a torture instrument on the head of a commoner like me, it is a torture instrument, it is not a good match, can you understand what I mean?" Hong Tao is also a bit of a dilemma, if he keeps quiet, the identity of these refugees cannot be solved, and he can't really throw them all in Hong Kong. The voice is loud, this aura is too dazzling, I can't hold it myself, it is likely to be a trouble.

If Mrs. Bellevy had intervened, the problem would have been solved. A French aristocratic female captain does something so in line with the style of a knight, it must be a good story, at least the European mainstream media will say this, and then the American mainstream media will not object, and then the world will think so, this is inevitable, and the voices of other countries are not useful at present.

Although nominally there was no longer an aristocracy in France, the titles of nobility that existed before the Revolution were still recognized in European aristocratic circles. This circle is self-contained, and it is difficult for outsiders to blend in. But this circle has a lot of influence, especially on this kind of humanitarian topic, and they can influence the media in many European countries. After all, there are still royal families in Europe, and most of them are relatives, and they don't give people rights politically, and they are still a little privileged in other aspects.
