As the crew became more and more familiar with the situation of the ship, Fang Lang finally began to relax, and after the third day of boarding, everyone drove the ship out of the dock for the first time under the organization of Fang Lang, and it took more than two hours to return to the dock.

After Fang Lang relaxed, he began to look for opportunities to visit Brigadier General Jackson and Colonel Attilio Parisi in turn, after all, the relationship is only close if you move around a lot!

The rest of the time is not to talk to Mr. Cockburn about the company's future plans and to discuss the establishment of its own Brazilian branch at the port of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It was to start a formal date with Lilith, and was even invited to dinner at home by Lilith's mother, but when Fang Lang always felt that the atmosphere was weird when he was eating at home, his mother-in-law always asked Fang Lang to sit between Lilith and Vivian.

After eating, Mr. Coburn was dragged away, leaving Fang Lang sitting on the sofa with a beautiful girl sitting on one side. This made Fang Lang feel uncomfortable, not that Fang Lang didn't like this feeling of hugging left and right, this is the dream of many men! But if you are holding your girlfriend and sister-in-law at your girlfriend's house, and your father-in-law and mother-in-law are busy in the kitchen, you will have a numb scalp just thinking about it!

Fortunately, Lilith doesn't seem to mind her sister's closeness to herself. even brought Wei Wei'an out with him on a date later, which made Fang Lang numb, and wanted to get close to Lilith, his sister was next to him, what could he do?

Although Fang Lang felt a little embarrassed, the two sisters didn't care, and after a few slow times, Fang Lang let go, mainly because they often stayed together, and they got used to it, and the relationship between Fang Lang and the sisters heated up very quickly. Sometimes the two of them will have a kiss in front of Wei Wei'an, but when sending the two of them home, Wei Wei An said goodbye to him, and he also had a deep kiss with him like his sister.

Directly frightened Fang Lang's scalp numb, and his hair stood on end and looked at Lilith, but Lilith laughed out loud when she looked at Fang Lang's overwhelmed expression on the side. If Fang Lang didn't understand what it meant at this time, it would be simply inferior to a beast. In this way, Fang Lang spent a few unforgettable days in Italy.

Finally, the order to set off was delivered. This time, Fang Lang will drive his own Gillas and three transport ships arranged by Lieutenant Commander Graham from the Globe Trading Company to form a small formation, follow the American convoy across the Atlantic, and then join the convoy on the east coast of the United States to protect the convoy that transports raw materials to Brazil and go south to Brazil.

The one-way voyage lasted nearly 25 days, and with a delay in Brazil, it was estimated that it would be two months later, in early March 1945. Fang Lang reluctantly said goodbye to the two lovely sisters, and introduced Mr. Coburn to Mr. Bojan Gambino, and arranged the subsequent cigarette deal.

After asking Brigadier General Jackson, the Mayor of Naples and Lieutenant Colonel Rolando Crespo of the Italian garrison to take care of his business in Italy and his father-in-law's family, he set out with everyone's blessings.

After a long voyage through a German blockade, they finally arrived at the Natal Naval Base in the northeastern corner of Brazil on January 20, 1945.

And the U.S. convoy escorted only here, and the rest of the journey was escorted by the Brazilian Navy's own fleet. Fortunately, the four ships of Fang Lang and his party belong to the Brazilian military, so there is no need to worry about safety in Brazil. After another week of sea routes, we finally arrived at the Navy's naval base in Rio de Janeiro.

Naturally, the arrival of the flotilla was due to the fact that there were already people waiting to receive them, and newspaper reporters came to report on the ceremony of escorting the bodies of the fallen soldiers of the Brazilian Navy thousands of miles away. In fact, the bodies were all cremated urns, because it was impossible to transport the bodies from Italy to Brazil, and if the bodies were to be transported for such a long time, they would have already decomposed.

The reporters could not see the other three transport ships loading and unloading the loot. Among the military generals who received Fang Lang and others, Fang Lang unexpectedly found a familiar figure, which was Lieutenant Colonel Graham, who was supposed to be on the battlefield in Italy.

Sure enough, not long after the welcome ceremony, a soldier came over to inform Fang Lang, and Lieutenant Colonel Ragham told him to meet him at the base headquarters. Fang Lang didn't have time to think about it, sorted out his military appearance, and boarded the jeep that came to pick him up.

went around all the way, and finally came to an office, and after the guards knocked on the door to report, they notified Fang Lang to go in. Fang Lang did not hesitate and strode into the office. I saw a middle-aged white man sitting in the main seat of the office, with a slightly fat figure, a pair of black-rimmed glasses hanging on his red rosacea, and the rank of colonel on his shoulders.

Lieutenant Colonel Ragham, on the other hand, sat on the sofa in the reception area of the office as Fang Lang had when he first met him, but this time he was obviously more relaxed than last time, as if he had returned to his own home.

Fang Lang didn't know who the colonel sitting behind the desk was, so he could only stand up and salute: "Report to the chief, Lieutenant Fang Lang, I was ordered to escort the remains of the fallen soldiers back to China, and the mission has been completed." Report to you. ”

The colonel officer in the main seat said with a smile: "Lieutenant Fang, it's been a hard work. Come, come and sit here. I've heard Graham say it, and thank you for finding these three ships this time! As he spoke, he gestured to the reception area where Ragham was sitting, and walked over himself. Apparently preparing to talk to the guest lounge together.

Look at this rhythm, there are things that need Fang Lang's help! However, the other party was a commander, and it was impossible for Fang Lang not to listen to the command, so he could only thank him repeatedly, and only after the colonel and officer sat down did he sit down on the side of the sofa, and his ass did not sit down, looking very respectful.

"Haha.... Fang, don't be so nervous, everyone is their own people, this is Colonel Adams Tic, commander of the naval base in Rio de Janeiro. This time, because I organized the delivery, although I didn't have time to escort the whole process, I had to fly over when I received the goods. In the future, you will need to hand over the goods directly to Colonel Titch. See what I mean! Lieutenant Colonel Ragham laughed heartily and said.

Fang Lang thought to himself, no wonder Lieutenant Colonel Ragham would go to Rio de Janeiro before him, it turned out to be by plane! It's really a waste of time to take this boat, and it seems that I will have to take a plane myself in the future. Listening to Ragham say that he is his own person, Fang Lang thought to himself whose own person am I?

Fang Lang also put on his own smile, and said to Colonel Titch: "Hello sir, I also happen to know the news that there are three boats, and the specific things are all discussed by Chief Ragham himself." I can't take credit. Then he turned to Lieutenant Colonel Graham and said, "Sir, I understand, every time the supplies are transported back in the future, they will be handed over directly to Mr. Colonel, and no one can pull a screw without the warrants of the two of them." ”

Colonel Titch and Lieutenant Colonel Ragham looked at each other and smiled with satisfaction. Colonel Tiqi saw that Fang Lang was very interested, so he didn't say more on this topic, he didn't want to talk too much about more sensitive topics with a lieutenant officer who was not his confidant, after all, this was also a public weapon for private use. Changing the subject, he said, "I heard that Lieutenant Fang is from São Paulo?" We're so close to São Paulo! Are you going to take two days to go home and have a look? ”

As soon as Fang Lang heard Colonel Tiqi's words, his heart was happy, this Colonel Tiqi is a bit of a timely rain style! I'm thinking about what reason to go back home! He handed the ladder here.

"Yes, sir, my parents and family are in São Paulo, and I have been away from home for two years, and I am indeed a little homesick. If I could, I would like to be able to take two days off and go back to see my parents. I just don't know what arrangements the chiefs have for the return voyage, and whether they are in a hurry to time. ”

"On the return trip, we are mainly going to transport some soldiers, and now the troops have not yet arrived, and the plan is to leave in ten days, so you have plenty of time. It is possible to arrange for your crew to take turns off, but you must return to Rio de Janeiro two days in advance. "The answer to Fang Lang's question was Lieutenant Colonel Graham.

Fang Lang always felt that Lieutenant Colonel Graham did not look like a subordinate when he was with Colonel Tick, although the two were very close, but where was Colonel Tick's military rank, according to the rules of officialdom that Fang Lang understood, Lieutenant Colonel Graham should not always answer questions, which seemed to be disrespectful to Colonel Tiqi.

However, it is also possible that the two do not belong to the same system and are not related to each other. Just like Fang Lang is an officer who belongs to the expeditionary force navy, he actually does not belong to the jurisdiction of the two officers in front of him. Although Fang Lang didn't understand what the situation was now, it was impossible to show it.

Since Colonel Attilio Parisi had told him that his ship's task was to dock with Lieutenant Colonel Ragham and transport the bodies and booty of the fallen soldiers, he must have obeyed Lieutenant Colonel Graham's orders now. But even Graham explained to him the time of his return trip and the task of transporting it. He also had to send a telegram to confirm with the expeditionary force and navy before he carried it out.
