Only the Minister of the Air Force heard General Crook's words, and his eyes flickered.

Originally, his first reaction was whether General Crook wanted to trap his brother Fang, but soon he noticed something wrong, after all, he knew very well that General Crook and Fang Lang had a close relationship.

Moreover, now that the other party is asking for war on behalf of the Navy, if it fails, it will have a great impact on him, the Minister of the Navy. There was absolutely no need for him to set himself on fire.

Therefore, this is obviously the result of General Crook and Fang Lang's joint consultation.

So what is the reason for Fang Lang to agree that in this case, he still has to take the initiative to take over this job that will cause trouble if he is not careful?

Looking at General Crook opposite, Major General Nairo Mora had some vague guesses in his heart.

I have to say that Lieutenant General Crook is an old fritter, and he didn't say anything about how much time the Marines had to destroy the rebels, but said that they would come forward to deal with the rebels for a while and give the army time to recuperate.

In this case, even if the Marine Corps fails in the operation, it will not be severely punished.

Field Marshal Moraes looked at General Crook seriously for a long time, and when he saw that everyone in the War Department did not speak, he slowly spoke:

"General Crook, do you know that the army has no jokes."

When General Crook heard this, he looked at Marshal Moraes with a serious face and said:

"Please rest assured, Your Excellency Marshal, I am a soldier, and naturally I understand the truth that the army has no jokes.

On behalf of Rear Admiral Fang Lang of the Navy's Rio de Janeiro Aircraft Carrier Battle Group, I would like to formally ask you to fight.

The troops under the command of Major General Fang Lang carried out the task of clearing the rebels of the Eddie brothers. ”

Marshal Moraes did not mention the topic of buying time for the army to recuperate, and General Crook did not mention it again, and everyone knew very well in their hearts that this was just a euphemism for General Crook to look better for the army.

Of course, this is not without risks, after all, it is said that the army will be given time to recuperate, and if the navy behaves too well at that time, it is possible for the army to stand up and pick peaches.

It's a pity that in Fang Lang's plan, he was never prepared to turn his actions into a protracted battle.

Hearing General Crook's reconfirmation, Marshal Moraes did not answer immediately, but turned his gaze to the army generals in the conference room.

It seems that I want to see from the army generals whether there are any objections.

But the result disappointed him, when his gaze swept over the army generals present, everyone subconsciously lowered their heads, unwilling to look at General Moraes.

Obviously, everyone is reluctant to take this hot potato at this time.

Seeing this, Marshal Moraes no longer hesitated, and said to General Crook:

"Since the Marines took the initiative to ask for war, and no one else objected, then on behalf of the Ministry of Defense, I agree to your application for war.

Rear Admiral Fang Lang, who was officially appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Navy, led the Marine Corps under his command and was responsible for clearing the Eddie Brothers rebels.

However, let's talk about the ugly words first, you only have two weeks, and if you can't achieve results in two weeks, both you and General Fang will be punished. Do you understand? ”

Hearing this, General Crook didn't say a word, got up directly, stood up and saluted with a serious expression:

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

For a while, everyone in the conference room had different eyes, and they all focused their eyes on the admiralty minister who took the initiative. Obviously, everyone didn't understand why he was full of food and made trouble for himself.

And General Crook, who achieved his goal, didn't care about everyone's reaction. After the meeting ended, Fang Lang was notified of the news as soon as possible.

The generals who left the conference room had a lot of discussions, and everyone felt that the navy was a little overwhelmed, and the encirclement and suppression operation of 5,000 army troops had failed, and the navy wanted to rely on the 2,500 marines under its command to complete it.

It's just a fantasy.

Just when everyone was still discussing how long it would take for the navy to complete the assembly, Fang Lang, who was far away in the state of Para, received the official order from General Crook and ordered the whole army to be drawn as soon as possible!

In one day and night, 2,500 marines of all men appeared directly at the newly expanded front-line field airfield by air.

Fang Lang's headquarters was also set up directly at the front-line airfield.

When Major General Wottai Wesker hurried to the front-line field airfield, he saw a scene that stunned him.

What used to be a small field airfield with only two reconnaissance planes has expanded into a huge airfield with three runways and nearly 50 planes parked.

In the warehouse next to the airport, the materials and fuel trucks come and go, and it is not lively.

Field tents were neatly erected on the periphery of the airport, and groups of soldiers gathered in unison beside the transport plane that had just landed.

From time to time, neat formations of fighters walked towards their respective barracks.

The speed with which he assembled and transported, and the well-trained temperament of the Marines, really surprised him, and he thought that he was also a veteran of the European War, and had seen the powerful armies of the world's major powers.

The Marine Corps in front of him, which belonged to the Navy, was indeed too unexpected for him.

With just a casual glance, he was sure that the combat effectiveness of these soldiers should not be underestimated, and in terms of both mental outlook and soldier quality, they somewhat surpassed the army units under his command.

This made him, who has always known himself as an elite, blush slightly.

Under the leadership of the guards, Major General Wotai Wesker came all the way to the outside of Fang Lang's command department unimpeded.

This is a huge field tent spliced together by two huge tents, several huge communication antennas are set up high on the top of the tent, and there is a lively sound of dripping in the tent, which is the sound of radio work.

At the same time, the sound of soldiers speaking from time to time inside also informs everyone that this place is busy.

A major officer standing at the door waiting saw Major General Wottai Wesker and his party, and hurriedly stood up and saluted:

"Your Excellency General, I am Major Qi Qingshan, General Fang's adjutant, because I just received a report from a reconnaissance plane, and I suspect that I have found traces of rebels.

Major General Wotai Wesker, who considered himself to be the general of the defeated army, did not have much opinion on Fang Lang not coming out to greet him, after all, the two were not familiar with each other.

Except for some time ago, Fang Lang took the initiative to come to the door and said that he would send a reconnaissance plane under his command to help him search for the traces of the rebels, and this was the second time the two had met.

After a casual return salute, Major General Wottey Wesker smiled indifferently:

"It's okay, military affairs are important, take me to see General Fang!"

He was still a little curious about Qi Qingshan's statement that the reconnaissance plane had found traces of the rebels. After all, since the rebels jumped out of his encirclement, they have lost track of the rebels.

Even if Fang Lang sent a large number of reconnaissance planes to help him search, he never found any trace of the other party.

Now that Fang Lang has just officially taken over, the reconnaissance plane has made a discovery immediately, and it is unlikely that he will not think about it without thinking about it.

Seeing this, Qi Qingshan nodded and said no more, and directly led Major General Wotai Wesker into the command headquarters, through the lively communication area outside, and into the tent inside.

Major General Wottäy Wesker saw a large map hanging on the wall facing the outside, and there was an officer in front of the map marking something.

In the middle of the tent was a huge conference table, around which a group of officers were discussing something.

Rear Admiral Wottai Wesker poked his head over to take a look, and saw that it turned out to be several photographs, which seemed to be the latest photos taken by a reconnaissance plane.

He was not surprised by this, after all, the reconnaissance plane he had asked for support from the Air Force would also bring back photos of suspected targets taken by them.

At this moment, Fang Lang is holding a photo in his left hand and a magnifying glass in his right hand to observe carefully.

There was a major officer beside him, pointing to a location in the photo, explaining something to Fang Lang.

Perhaps it was Yu Guang who found the figure of Major General Wottai Wesk, Fang Lang hurriedly handed the photo in his hand to the major officer beside him, stretched out his right hand, and walked two steps briskly to meet Major General Wottai Wesk.

"I'm sorry, General Wesker! I just received a report from the reconnaissance plane and found a trace of suspected rebels, so I can't meet you in time, I hope you don't mind. ”

Major General Wotai Wesker stretched out his right hand with a smile on his face and said politely to Fang Lang:

"General Fang is too polite, I thank you for taking the initiative before it's too late! How would you mind?

I don't know if it's inconvenient for Fang to reveal to me, where the rebels are now! ”

Now that Fang Lang has officially taken over the command of the front, of course he doesn't mind telling Major General Wottai Wesker about the enemy's whereabouts, after all, the major general in front of him is not incompetent.

In fact, the blame cannot be entirely placed on him for the failure of this encirclement and suppression. Besides, this major general could not be a spy of the enemy, so there was no need to hide it from him.

However, he would not tell the other side how the reconnaissance planes of the naval aviation confirmed the traces of the rebels.

Because, they confirmed the location of the rebels, in fact, through their internal response to the rebels, a special mark made in the open area of the rainforest - a huge triangle.

It was impossible for Fang Lang to tell anyone that he had already sent his own internal response to the rebels.

"Of course, no problem!"

As he spoke, Fang Lang directly led Major General Wottai Wesker to the huge map facing the door, and pointed to the location of the officer who was marking in front of the map:

"According to what our reconnaissance plane detected this morning, the rebels have crossed the Yapura River and entered the rainforest south of the Yapura River."

This answer came as a surprise to Major General Wottai Wesker.

"What? How they crossed the Yapura River. ”

Rear Admiral Wysker was not surprised that he had captured all the transport vessels of the rebels, and it stands to reason that the rebels could not have been able to cross the Yapura River.

Although the Yapra River is only a tributary of the Amazon River, it is also an important tributary, connecting Colombia with Brazil, and the width of the river is not easy to cross.

It was precisely because of this consideration that he never ordered a reconnaissance plane to reconnoiter the south bank of the Yapula River.

Of course, Fang Lang knew what Major General Wottai Wesker was thinking, but he knew that there were people behind the rebels, so he would not limit his thinking.

After a long reconnaissance flight under the command of Major General Wottai Wesker to conduct reconnaissance on the north bank without finding any trace of the rebels, he immediately turned his attention to the south bank of the Yapura River.

As he expected, the reconnaissance plane was soon on the south bank and found the special mark that it should have left in the rebels.

"I don't know how they crossed the Yapura River, but I'm sure that the reason why we haven't found each other for so long is because they jumped right under our noses to the south bank of the Yapura River."

Fang Lang believed that Major General Wottai Wesker was not a fool, it was impossible not to detect anomalies within the government, not to mention that Brisso Eddie's identity was known throughout the country, and if he didn't understand what was happening now, he wouldn't have climbed to where he is today.

Perhaps, as early as when he just took over this encirclement and suppression task, he was already mentally prepared for this situation, otherwise why did the other party have been under pressure from the government in the early stage and adopted the cage tactics of pressing step by step?
