Perhaps accustomed to the gathering of tens of thousands of people in the Bremerhaven camp, Zhuo Fei did not feel much shock at the thousands of Jews in front of him who had just disembarked and were about to leave the dock. Of course, their shock was not because of these Jews, but because of the large lifters installed on the docks by the Umbrella Company, and the tanks and armored vehicles that were transferred from the ships.

"Mr. Steven, you told me that there was a shipment that I needed my help with, but you didn't say that the cargo would be tanks and armored vehicles?" Major Matthew, who rushed to hear the news, asked Steven angrily, but the latter looked indifferent at the moment, which made the anger that Major Matthew had been suppressing finally burst out. "Mr. Steven, I now officially inform you that I am going to detain these tanks and armored vehicles, and if you can't give me a reasonable explanation, these things will have to stay in my barracks forever."

The word umbrella does not come from Zhuo Fei's evil taste, but is the general name of his entire plan, and the ultimate goal of his entire plan is to create an umbrella to protect the Chinese from being invaded and harmed by Japan or Western powers. The Jewish relocation plan was only one part of the Umbrella Campaign, and from the time the first batch of Jews landed in Guangzhou, Zhuo Fei's Umbrella Project was officially launched, and in order to cater to and create conditions for the whole plan, Steven's trading house in Yangon was called the Umbrella Company.

Matthew said that he would detain these tanks and armored vehicles that had just been lifted from the ship, Steven didn't care about this at all, just groaned slightly, Steven turned to Matthew and smiled, "Major Matthew, I said that as long as we are friends, the umbrella company will not do anything to hurt friends." These tanks and armored vehicles were actually purchased by Jewish organizations in other European countries to support their compatriots, and you should also know that there is a war going on in China, and without some heavy weapons like this, the Jews who have migrated to China could be caught up in the war again. ”

Matthew naturally won't believe Steven's explanation at the moment, if it was just for self-preservation, the light weapons that were shipped to China one after another in time were enough, but this time it was different, this time it was all tanks and armored vehicles that went ashore, these things were too sensitive. One of Matthew's lieutenants hurriedly disembarked and walked quickly to Matthew's side and whispered for a while, and Steven had no intention of eavesdropping on what they were talking about, nothing more than how many tanks and armored vehicles were still in the cabin.

Sure enough, after hearing his adjutant's report, Matthew's face became even worse, he didn't expect the Umbrella Company to show such a big hand, this fleet that had just entered the port, brought not only thousands of Jews, but also more than 60 tanks and armored vehicles. "Mr. Steven, you're going to make it hard for me to do that. I was only a minor major, and once the Governor found out about this, I thought my only way out would be to be dismissed from my post and sent back to my home country to be tried by a court-martial. ”

Matthew, who had already realized the seriousness of the problem, completely changed his face, and at this time he regretted taking the 500 pounds in cash that Steven gave him, and ruining his military career for 500 pounds, which was really difficult for Matthew to accept. "Major Matthew, you don't have to worry about this at all, Your Excellency the Governor has long known about this." Steven smiled at Matthew again, but there was not much heat in his smile, and Matthew saw a hint of warning in Steven's smile.

"Major Matthew, you just need to arrange the truck that you lend us, and as for the oil we bought from you, I will send someone to send the money to the barracks immediately." As he spoke, Steven casually moved to Matthew's side, "I said that our Umbrella is very friendly to our friends, but if it is our enemy, I swear that the Umbrella Company will give him a memory that will last a lifetime." ”

When Steven said these words, his expression and tone were relaxed, but Matthew subconsciously took a step back, he had already heard the other party's warning from Steven's words. The Jews who got off the boat followed the instructions of the red armband militiamen and walked in a line towards the convoy outside the pier, and every time a Jew came to Yangon by boat, the port was always temporarily closed by the garrison, and before the locals saw a large number of trucks parked outside the port, they would know that another group of Jews had come to Burma.

The Jews, who had only their belongings, were urged by the guards and militia to turn into the carriages, which were covered with tarpaulins and could only carry about 20 people, but now carried no less than 40 Jews. "Boss, there's no way around it, there's only so many trucks we can get. If it weren't for the trucks, I believe that at least a third of them would have died on the road due to injuries and illnesses, and it is better to just squeeze a few now than to die on the road. ”

It took time for thousands of people to board the vehicles, and it took time for the tanks and armoured vehicles to be hoisted from the ships and down the docks, and by the time everything was over, night had already fallen on Yangon. Steven's original plan was to leave Rangoon at night, because of the tanks and armored vehicles, the Jews had to leave Rangoon at night. "Boss, the route is like this, first use a truck to send them to the train station, I have signed a contract with the Yangon railway station, the railway station will prepare three trains to transport these Jews, but our tanks and armored vehicles can't be transported at one time."

The railroads built by the British in Burma decades earlier helped Zhuo Fei and his family, and Jews who landed in Yangon could take a train directly to Mandalay, and from there to Lashio by narrow-gauge train. This route was confirmed by Angela herself, and the safety of the two groups of Jews sent away by Steven had also been verified on the spot, and the British had already pretended to be deaf and dumb about the Jewish migration under Steven's silver bullet offensive.

It was confirmed that all the munitions transported by the fleet had landed, and Zhuo Fei, who had no objection to the line, also rushed to the railway station, Yangon Railway Station may be said to be all the locomotives in Myanmar, all of which used locomotives and carriages produced by Britain decades ago, and this kind of locomotive with obvious lack of power really could not transport more than 60 tanks and armored vehicles at one time. Zhuo Fei had planned to command these tanks and armored vehicles to travel by land day and night, but Steven's reminder made him immediately dismiss this idea, and it was not a good thing to attract the attention of the British army.

Following Steven's planned steps, the thousands of Jews who had just landed were to be sent off tonight, and two days later, a group of British soldiers under Matthew and dozens of Golden Shields escorted tanks, armored vehicles, and the munitions on a train from Rangoon. Boarding the luxury box reserved by Steven for himself, Zhuo Fei finally told Steven, "The umbrella company is not afraid of anyone, let alone greedy Brits, if you encounter something that can't be solved, you might as well hand it over to those underground forces to solve, you can't keep them in vain." ”

Zhuo Fei's advice gave Steven great confidence, he knew that Zhuo Fei was delegating power to himself by saying this, and he thought that everything he did in Yangon had won Zhuo Fei's approval. The train moved slowly, and the Jews crowded in the carriages still did not relax, only listening to the red armbands mixed in with them to mention the goodness of China, but until they saw it with their own eyes, these Jewish refugees who had just escaped Nazi persecution could not really relax.

Ignoring the noisy discussions and quarrels of the Jewish refugees in the carriage, Zhuo Fei just told Zhuo Yan a few words, and then fell asleep wrapped in a blanket. Waiting for the train to stop at Mandalay Station and wait for a change to a narrow-gauge train, Zhuo Fei, who was groggy all the way, got off the train and moved his body on the platform for a while.

Lashio is only 230 kilometers from Mandalay, but if you take the narrow-gauge railway, it may be a few tens of kilometers longer because of the route, but for the Jews who came to Myanmar from as far away as Europe, it is only a few tens of kilometers more, which is nothing compared to their experience of crossing the sea. It's just that these Jews who are on the road again, including Zhuo Fei, will not know what they will face when they arrive at Lashio.

Lashio is 130 kilometers from the town of Wan on the Chinese border, and these 130 kilometers can only be transported by land, and the Yunnan-Burma Highway, which was built by hundreds of thousands of people from Kunming to Lashio, was built by Yunnan Chairman Long Yun. The road construction equipment that Zhuo Fei got from the United States and Germany was at most to help strengthen the road surface and eliminate the danger of some road sections, but in fact, the 130-kilometer road from Lashio to Wan Town was still full of danger and difficulty.

The bottomless cliffs on the side of the road, the trucks driving on the road, and sometimes falling rocks, all made the Jews crowded in the carriages fearful, and even Zhuo Fei, who drove himself, had to be cautious. I didn't expect that the Yunnan-Burma highway would still be so difficult to travel after the transformation, and Zhuo Fei, who was driving a jeep, was even more determined to build a railway that connected Lashio, at least the heavy equipment he got from Europe would not be able to travel overland to Wan Town, which would be too wasteful of fuel.

"Boss, we're about to arrive, you see, it's the Wan Town, as long as you cross the Wan Town Bridge, you will enter the territory of China." The escort who was sent by Steven to lead the team suddenly pointed to the river that appeared in front of the road and shouted loudly, and Zhuo Yan, who had been languishing in the co-pilot's seat, also tried to sit up straight, stretching his neck to look at the river.

"Stone, we're back, we're home, and the other side of the river is our home." Zhuo Fei stopped the jeep on the side of the road, looking at the river in the distance, but his eyes were already full of water vapor. It's been half a year, and it's been half a year since he left the motherland, but Zhuo Fei suddenly felt a little emotional at the moment.
