Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

Regarding Colonel Malik's question, Fang Lang thought for a while and shook his head:

"Mr. Colonel, I have never fought against Japanese dwarf child soldiers. The Japanese are not very tall, and adults look like children wherever they stand. I really can't tell them apart."

Colonel Malik laughed loudly after hearing this:

"Fang, you are such a humorous guy. I like chatting with you. Okay! Since you haven't dealt with it before, then you have someone take them to me. We will deal with it."

This was Fang Lang's plan. If this is a group of Japanese prisoners, especially those who have been to the country, Malik will shoot them if you dare to say a word.

Then don't even think about taking back this order, it will be completely implemented. It just so happens that Fang Lang also wants to try whether the 12.7mm machine gun really has the effect as shown in Schwarzenegger's movie.

"No problem, Mr. Colonel. We can settle down today. I wonder what our mission is?"

After talking about the handling of the rebels, Fang Lang began to ask about the next task arrangements.

"The main task of the occupying forces now is to maintain local security and order. You have just arrived today, so take a rest first.

I will arrange two Japanese translators for you tomorrow, and then you will patrol with us."

When Malik heard that Fang Lang took the initiative to share the task, he was very happy and said directly.

Fang Lang had already anticipated this. This kind of patrol mission was exactly what Fang Lang needed. He now urgently needed to familiarize himself with the situation in Osaka. Moreover, the two goals in his mind also required on-site inspections before he could start.

Japan is currently in its most chaotic period, and many things must be completed during this period.

Otherwise, it would be inconvenient to wait until October, when MacArthur accepted Japan's request to cancel military control and indirectly rule Japan through the Japanese Emperor and the government.

Therefore, strictly speaking, Fang Lang's plan only has one month to implement.

"No problem, but Mr. Colonel, we are the Marine Corps. We don't have any mechanized equipment or even transportation. We may need your help to solve this problem."

Some things are just a matter of giving each other face. Since you are ordering others to patrol, of course you must equip them with relevant vehicles.

The US military that had just occupied Japan also seized a large number of vehicles from the Japanese, so Colonel Malik said without hesitation:

"No problem, there are many captured Japanese Type 95 four-wheel drive reconnaissance vehicles parked in our warehouse. You can come over at any time and drive them away."

This so-called Type 95 four-wheel drive reconnaissance vehicle is actually a jeep of the Japanese army. About 4,800 vehicles were produced during the war. They were not used much in China and were mainly used in the Southeast Asian battlefield and the Pacific battlefield.

Fang Lang doesn't have high requirements for this, he just needs to be able to open it.

So he nodded without hesitation and said:

"Then thank you for your support. When we get back, I will ask the soldiers to come and collect it.

After you determine our specific patrol area, let me know and I will arrange for the soldiers to implement it."

In this way, the two quickly reached an agreement and shook hands to say goodbye!

Fang Lang, who returned to the station, arranged for personnel to send all the arrested people to the US military base.

And drove back more than 30 patrol cars, more than 30 trucks, and a Nissan 70 car owned by a senior Japanese military officer.

According to the returning soldiers, the car was a gift from Colonel Malik to Fang Lang.

To be honest, Fang Lang is somewhat disdainful of Japanese vehicles.

However, I am very interested in the equipment and technology for producing cars.

After the war, he also planned to set up a car manufacturing factory in Brazil, but he had already targeted the United States and Germany to introduce car manufacturing technology.

Because Brazil is mostly plateau terrain, the traffic environment is poor.

Fang Lang hopes to develop and produce an off-road vehicle suitable for Brazil's national conditions, and the best off-road vehicle of this era is of course the Willys Jeep!

Willys Jeep is basically the originator of modern off-road vehicles. Almost all off-road vehicles in later generations were developed on the basis of Willys Jeep.

Of course, trucks are also key models in order to develop economy. However, the load capacity of Japanese trucks is only about 1.5 tons, which is really not enough in the face of the maximum load capacity of trucks in the United States and Germany of 6.5 tons.

This is also the reason why Fang Lang doesn't think much of Japanese vehicles. They are all going to be imported anyway, so why not let his starting point be higher.

Don’t think that modern Japanese cars are awesome, but Japanese cars during World War II were scum.

That night, Fang Lang gathered all Marine Corps officers above the platoon level for a meeting

In the spacious classroom, under dim light, Fang Lang hung a detailed map of Osaka city provided by the Allies on the school blackboard.

"Gentlemen, from now on we will begin to carry out military missions in Japan as an occupying force.

Recently I have heard the voices of many people who express their incomprehension about our coming to the Pacific to participate in the war and want to go home like our brothers in Europe.

I can understand everyone's expectations, and I also want to go home. However, we are here to build our powerful Brazilian Navy.

Without our efforts in the Pacific battlefield, Americans would not easily agree to let us have powerful warships.

Please believe me, I promise to let everyone go home together by the end of October at the latest.

But since we have come to Japan, I will not let everyone go home with nothing.

Starting tomorrow, we will go out in batches to perform patrol missions. During the patrol mission, I hope that everyone can be more fierce and tough.

Today is September 7th, I don’t care what method you take. I need you to clear two roads for me before September 23rd, this one and this one.”

As he spoke, he painted the two roads red with a red pencil.

Everyone listened to Fang Lang's words attentively. Some even wanted to take out a pen to record, but Fang Lang reached out to stop him.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"This operation is top secret and no records are allowed. This map will also be destroyed after tonight. Do you understand?"

Everyone was shocked and responded in unison:

"Understood, sir!"

Fang Lang's eyes were cold and he looked at all the officers sitting there with a serious expression.

"In order to increase everyone's enthusiasm, I can clearly tell you here that during this month, the Military Justice Department will be on vacation.

During your mission in Japan, any behavior that occurs outside this military camp will not be held accountable when you return to Brazil.

And I only have one request, that is, the 200-meter area on both sides of these two roads should be completely cleared, and there should be no residents or non-our personnel, do you understand?"

The officers below did not react at once, only a few sporadic "get it" sounds.

Soon, whispers of conversation began to be heard below, and after a while, someone finally spoke hesitantly:

"Sir, what if the soldiers killed innocent civilians outside?"

After listening to the officer's words, Fang Lang smiled and said:

"Are you sure he is a civilian?"

Seeing that the officer still didn't understand, the person next to him couldn't stand it anymore, so he kicked him and said:

"Won't you say he is a rebel?"

Everyone suddenly realized that this was the case.

Someone wanted to stand up and ask again, but Fang Lang waved his hand to stop him. Some words can only be understood but not expressed.

If you still don’t understand after saying this, it can only mean that this guy is a fool and is destined to have no future.

"I ask again, do you understand all my mission requirements?"

Now everyone stopped hesitating and responded loudly:

"Understood, sir!"

Next, Fang Lang began to combine the maps to segment the two roads and assign them to different squads.

The meeting ends when all officers know their areas of responsibility.

Although everyone was full of doubts, Fang Lang would not answer their questions, and even this meeting would not produce any meeting documents.

Even if someone asked, Fang Lang would not admit that he had issued such an order.

As for why Fang Lang wanted to clear these two roads, of course he had his own reasons.

What the officers couldn't understand the most was that Fang Lang said he would choose to ignore the soldiers' violations of military discipline outside the military camp.

Doesn't Fang Lang understand the consequences of doing this?

Of course, Fang Lang knew very well the consequences of issuing such an order.

Many people may think that Fang Lang's purpose is to take revenge for what the Japanese soldiers did in his hometown.

In fact, this is just one of the reasons.

Another reason is that Fang Lang needs to clear these two roads. If these soldiers are not relaxed, the soldiers will be a little unable to let go, and hidden dangers may be left.

The most important reason is that Fang Lang needs to make the Japanese hate Brazilians and hate Brazil.

This is part of Fang Lang's population strategy to reduce the large number of Japanese immigrants who settled in Brazil after the war.

Of course, this alone is definitely not enough, but it is just a small means. Fang Lang will have other means later to try to make all Japan hate Brazil.

At the end of the meeting, Fang Lang burned the marked map and hung up a new one, as if nothing had happened.

In the next few days, things really began to develop as Fang Lang expected.

First of all, Japanese people said that Brazilian soldiers raped Japanese women.

After the incident was reported to Fang Lang, the soldiers were still quite nervous, fearing that Fang Lang would shoot them.

Fang Lang also made a very serious face-to-face promise that the Japanese people would catch the real culprit and punish him severely.

As a result, the soldiers in the guard platoon spread the news. Fang Lang returned to the office and without even looking at the evidence provided by the Japanese, he threw it directly to the cooking team for fuel.

This news is like pouring a bucket of gasoline on a burning fire.
