Fang Lang knew that Brigadier General Jackson must have expected it, but he could also take this opportunity to show his attitude to Jackson, and forcibly turned the exchange of interests between countries into a personal friendship between the two. After all, Fang Langke is very clear about the influence of the Americans in Brazil in the future, especially the influence of the Brazilian army.

"I don't care about this, but you handed it over to me at that time, and I handed it over to the expeditionary force and navy. In my heart, this is what you gave me, but unfortunately now I have no power but to watch my ship being taken by this bastard. ”

Commodore Jackson is an old man, so he naturally understands what Fang Lang means, and can also hear Fang Lang's dissatisfaction with the Brazilian Navy. smiled and said:

"And how is the Brazilian Navy going to place you?"

Fang Lang saw the smile on Commodore Jackson's face, and thought that Jackson already knew that the expeditionary force was going to let him do the destroyer captain's business.

"Surely you already know, don't you?"

Seeing Fang Lang looking at him with a determined face, Commodore Jackson instantly understood what the Brazilian Navy meant, these bastards are really ghostly.

"How can I know about your Brazilian Navy, but since you say so, I probably understand what you mean! Was it the expeditionary force that recently approached us to support a destroyer? ”

Since Commodore Jackson said that he did not expect that the new position given to him by the Brazilian Navy would be the captain of this destroyer, Fang Lang also told the news he had heard.

"Yes! Said that he wanted me to be the captain of a new destroyer, but now there is not even a shadow of a warship, isn't this playing with me? I feel that I have a good relationship with you, and want me to ask you to come forward to facilitate the delivery of the warship as soon as possible. ”

Commodore Jackson heard Fang Lang say that the Expeditionary Force Navy wanted Fang Lang to come to him and facilitate the delivery of the American destroyer, and smiled:

"Oh! So what do you think? ”

Fang Lang did not hide his dissatisfaction in front of Brigadier General Jackson, and expressed strong indignation at the Expeditionary Force's Navy's use of himself.

"When I'm stupid! Don't say I don't have such a big face with you. Even if you give me face and contribute to this matter, when the time comes, they will transfer me out again and replace me with one of theirs as the captain, am I so stupid! I've seen through these bastards! ”

The expeditionary force's navy's practice of unloading and killing donkeys obviously made Fang Lang very dissatisfied, and even felt that he might become the captain of the expeditionary force's transport team in the future, but he would not be able to do any practical good.

Brigadier General Jackson didn't expect Fang Lang to be able to see through the thoughts of the expeditionary force and navy so quickly at such a young age, and he couldn't help but look at Fang Lang differently:

"I can't imagine that you kid, you're not very old, but your mind is not bad!"

Seeing that Commodore Jackson agreed with his judgment, Fang Lang was happy, I have something to say, even if I ask you to help facilitate the delivery of the destroyer, don't say that it is my own idea, this is the people of the expeditionary force and navy who want to use it, but it is not me. But his mouth said:

"Look at what you say, what's the matter, it's also your nephew, isn't it a shame for you to have a bad head!"

How could Xiao Jiujiu in Fang Lang's heart hide from Brigadier General Jackson, but this was also the main purpose of Jackson looking for Fang Lang today, so he stopped going around the bend and directly threw out the question:

"Since you treat me as an uncle, I won't hide some things from you, providing you with a destroyer is a small problem, but you have to understand that once you become the captain of this destroyer, it means that in the Brazilian army, you will be labeled as pro-American, which is not necessarily a good thing for you!"

Pro-American, as soon as the word appeared, Fang Lang understood what Jackson meant. I am an iron-clad pro-China faction, but unfortunately now you Americans are the most powerful, and when the expeditionary force returns home, all of them are already pro-American, and the sooner you become the pro-American faction in your mind, you will not be able to achieve a higher position in the expeditionary force faster, and you will be able to achieve a better position when you return to Brazil in the future.

When the time comes, it is not better to have a pro-American cloak to cover his pro-China identity, so he said with a big grin:

"Haha...... Uncle Jackson, you are right, I am pro-American! Do I need to re-label? Even if I say that I am not pro-American, is there anyone in the Brazilian army who believes me? ”

At this time, Brazil is indeed not completely tilted towards the United States, because President Vargas is very aware of the ambitions of the United States for the Americas, but unfortunately, Vargas will not last long, with the achievements of the United States in World War II, the United States will have a strong influence on most countries in the world after the war.

The United States will never allow Brazil, a major power in the Americas, to become a sharp knife inserted by the Soviet Union in the Americas. Therefore, when the Americans found that Brazilian President Vargas could not completely stand on their side, they began to plan ahead of time, and supporting the pro-American faction in the military was the most effective means for the United States.

When these soldiers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force came into contact with the so-called ideas of democracy and freedom in Europe, and returned to China, they would definitely be dissatisfied with the practices of some politicians in China, which directly led to many coups d'état by the Brazilian army.

So Brigadier General Jackson really regarded Fang Lang as a nephew, and revealed some high-level situations in Brazil to Fang Langdao:

"You kid know, the current Brazilian President Vargas is not very fond of pro-Americans. Although he is now working with us in the United States, he has just founded the Labor Party in Brazil! This party's interests are not at odds with American values. ”

It's a pity that Fang Lang, as a traverser, knows very well that the Americans are the victorious side in the end, of course he will not take a detour, but directly speaks:

"So what! I'm just a petty officer, if he doesn't like me, am I a pro-American, and won't I be pinched to death like an ant? ”

Fang Lang's answer made Jackson's heart bloom, that is, he was happy that he had completed the task of Lieutenant General Chambers, and he was also happy that Fang Lang could have a correct choice. So he said to the other party with a smile on his face:

"Alright! Since you have chosen to make yourself a staunch pro-American, then come to me in my office tomorrow afternoon, and I will take you to meet someone. ”

I heard that Brigadier General Jackson was going to take him to meet someone, which made Fang Lang stunned, these things, can't you be a brigadier general after you have communicated? But thinking about it, he might introduce himself to a higher-level leader of the U.S. Navy, and Fang Lang certainly wouldn't turn down a good opportunity to expand his network. Pretending to be surprised:

"Who's there! Uncle, you're not really going to help me with the destroyer, are you! But I don't want to be the captain of a destroyer! I still have a lot of business to do! What will happen to my business if I go to war? ”

Seeing that Fang Lang was still thinking about his business at this time, he couldn't help but be angry. Climbed to a higher position, in a place like the Brazilian army, isn't it easy to get rich with the support of the Americans? But think about it, his business can also bring benefits to himself, and he has to open his mouth to solve his worries.

"You kid, with me here, are you still worried that your convoy will be left unattended? Rest assured! I know your father-in-law, Kerns, and I have already told him that no matter where your ships are going, I will arrange a convoy for you all the way! You can develop in the army with peace of mind. ”

In fact, Fang Lang is really unwilling to drive a naval warship and fight with the Germans, if it is to fight small Japan, it is absolutely nothing, and he has to put two cannons on a transport ship to transport materials, but he really has no interest in fighting the Germans.

"But I don't know how to fight in the navy! I don't know if there are any other ships that don't need naval warfare that can be handed over to me, such as amphibious landing ships to transport soldiers, or hospital ships to transport little nurses! ”

Fang Lang's words made Brigadier General Jackson fall for him, I don't know if he was afraid of death or for what reason, say that he is afraid of death! He fought bravely in the army and saved John's life under enemy fire. Say he's not afraid of death! When he arrived in the navy, he was reluctant to drive a warship into battle.

But Commodore Jackson finally found a pro-American naval officer, and if he wanted to support him, he would not let him run to a non-combat post, so he directly refused:

"You can't learn! Are you born to sail a boat? Now that you've mastered the art of ship piloting, I'm sure it's going to be a breeze for you to learn to fly a destroyer. As for the amphibious landing ships you mentioned, now that they have all landed, where are you going and what are you doing? Pension? Don't even think about the hospital ship, even if we give it to you, your Brazilian expeditionary force will not necessarily want it. Okay, don't talk to me anymore, it's getting late, you can go back! I'm going to sleep. See you tomorrow! ”

Looking at Commodore Jackson, who directly issued the order to evict the passengers, Fang Lang's face was full of helplessness, it seemed that he couldn't escape the fate of the destroyer. I couldn't help but think in my heart, destroyers are destroyers, but this time they must all be their own people, and they must all be their own people in the future, and don't want to let yourself be the captain of the transport brigade for you Brazilian bureaucrats.
