"Sir, Lieutenant Fang Lang of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, here to report!" Fang Lang stood outside the door of Commodore Neo Jackson of the U.S. Fourth Fleet and called. This is what John told Fang Lang when he left Italy first. Jack

Brigadier General Sen hoped to have a chat with Fang Lang before he arrived at his post.

"Please come in!" A majestic voice came from the door.

Fang Lang adjusted his appearance again, stretched out his hand and pushed open the door. He saw a tall, blond, blue-eyed, middle-aged man in his fifties sitting behind a large desk, looking up at him.

.

Fang Lang walked to the desk in standard military posture and saluted: "Your Excellency, General, Second Lieutenant Fang Lang is reporting to you!"

At this moment, Fang Lang was still very nervous. It was the first time in his life to see such an important officer. Although John said that General Jackson was easy to get along with, that was because he had a good father, and he was just from a third-rate small country.

The status of a soldier is not much different from that of a colonial servant army. If you don't perform well, you may be sent to a corner.

"I heard John said that you saved his life, right?" Brigadier General Jackson asked directly without letting Fang Lang sit down.

"Report to the general, yes." Fang Lang was worried that he would make too many mistakes, so he could only answer whatever he asked.

"Have you always been familiar with him?" Hearing Brigadier General Jackson ask, Fang Lang understood that he was doubting whether he had other intentions in rescuing John.

"Reporting to the general, I didn't know him before I rescued him. When I woke up and we were in the same ward with him, I realized it was him who was rescuing me, and we gradually became familiar with him."

Brigadier General Jackson, who had been staring at Fang Lang's expression, put aside his doubts after hearing Fang Lang's answer.

"I heard from your commander that you performed very bravely on the front line. Why do you want to be transferred to the Naval Logistics Department?" Commodore Jackson once again raised the question in his heart. Apparently, he suspected that Fang Lang let John go because he was greedy for life and afraid of death.

He was transferred to the logistics department.

"Report to the general, mainly because this injury caused me to faint suddenly. John was worried that my body would be in danger in the combat army, so he recommended me to your command." Fang Lang couldn't say who John was.

In order to repay the life-saving grace, everyone on the battlefield has a relationship of you save me and I save you. If the benefactor has to be transferred to the logistics department because of a life-saving grace, this may make General Jackson feel that John is not mature enough. Of course

Fang Lang felt that John was immature to begin with, but the more immature he was, the more advantageous he would be to Fang Lang.

"Then do you still have this kind of sudden fainting now?" Jackson obviously didn't want to have someone under his command who could faint at any time.

"Report to the general, I don't know about this problem. I haven't fainted for three days. Personally, I feel that my physical condition is fine now and I can work at any time." Fang Lang didn't want to be sent back to the hospital to continue lying down.

"Okay! If you feel unwell, you must report it in time, you know?" Jackson was also worried that if Fang Lang had any physical problems here, John would cause trouble for him.

"Understood General!" Fang Lang couldn't possibly tell Jackson that his current health was so good that he could kill a cow. I don't know if it was a sequelae of time travel. His physical fitness had at least doubled compared to before.

Yue's already thin body is now beginning to show more and more obvious muscles. His spirit is even better. Fang Lang feels that he can hold on without sleep for at least three or four days.

"Then tell me what you know, and I'll arrange a job for you." Brigadier General Jackson decided to accept this connection's offer.

"Report to the general, I can speak English, French, Portuguese, Chinese, Spanish and Italian and can carry out some basic oral communication. If I have naval-related skills, I can be qualified to handle the shipping work of large transport ships." Fang Langhui

So many languages, of course, are the wealth of knowledge brought to him by two lifetimes. And the shipping work of large transport ships is his old profession in his previous life. Of course, the current ships are definitely not as advanced as their ocean-going container freighters, but they do not rely on

Automated driving of ships across the ocean is also a necessary skill for their crews. And their more than 20 years of ocean navigation skills are comparable to the outstanding captains of this era.

Fang Lang's answer obviously surprised Brigadier General Jackson: "Aren't you the son of a Brazilian farmer? How come you know so many languages ​​and navigation."

Obviously Brigadier General Jackson had done some research on Fang Lang's background. Unexpectedly, his answer was very different from what Brigadier General Jackson knew. But Fang Lang couldn't say it was his skills in his previous life! After thinking about it for a long time, he could only say weak

He replied weakly: "Uh! Report to the general, I learned these by myself. My dream before joining the army was to own a ship of my own. I want to sail to my hometown, China."

"Okay! It seems that I have to arrange another job for you. You first go to the transport ship Charles Jos at the dock and report to Major Raquel Cross! Their transport ship will return to the United States soon.

, I will ask Major Cross to conduct an assessment on you. If you can successfully pass the assessment, then I will allocate one of the transport ships we captured to your Brazilian Expeditionary Force Navy and let you serve as the captain to satisfy your captain.

Dream. How about it?" Brigadier General Jackson was secretly happy when he heard that Fang Lang was confident that he could handle the shipping work of ocean-going transport ships.

Because the commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, General Mascarenos Di Morais, has approached Commodore Jackson many times, hoping to arrange a transport ship for the Brazilian Navy so that the Brazilian Expeditionary Force can independently open the connection between the expeditionary force and Brazil.

route to transport the wounded and fallen soldiers back to the Brazilian mainland.

There are a lot of captured transport ships now, but the captains who can be trusted are not willing to work for the Brazilians alone, and the captured ships are not ready to be sold to businessmen at low prices. If Fang Lang is really like himself

If you say you are qualified to be the captain of an ocean-going transport ship, doesn't it mean that someone will give you a pillow if you want to fall asleep?

"Yes! General! Thank you for your cultivation. I will never let you down." Fang Lang was overjoyed when he heard that after passing the test, he could be directly assigned to a warship in the Brazilian Navy and let him serve as the captain. Now

Although the transport fleet was frequently attacked by German naval submarine forces during this time, every voyage was actually escorted by a naval fleet.

Moreover, given Fang Lang's military rank and qualifications, he should not be assigned a large transport ship, and small transport ships would not become the main target of the German army.

Soon Fang Lang followed the messenger under the arrangement of Brigadier General Jackson and took his own transfer order to the Navy Pier in Naples.

In fact, it is not far from the naval hospital, but there are warships parked near the naval hospital, and the location where Fang Lang is now is a berth for transport ships.

The transport ship Charles Jose in front of him is obviously a Liberty Ship that has been in service for no more than two years, and the Liberty Ship is actually a ship type that Fang Lang is very familiar with, because it is so famous, starting in 1941

By the time Germany was defeated and surrendered in 1945, 18 shipyards in the United States had built more than 2,700 ships.

I don’t know if this ship is an improved Victory Wheel. Fang Lang still hopes to board the Victory Wheel, because the early Free Wheel was only powered by an old steam engine and its speed was only about 11 knots. The German’s

The speed of the submarine has reached 17 knots, so if it is discovered by a German submarine, it will not be able to escape. The Victory wheel has improved power based on the free wheel and can reach a speed of 18 knots, at least it will not be caught up by the German submarine.

, life is more secure.

Of course, the Liberty Ships are also armed. Each Liberty Ship has six anti-aircraft guns and one anti-submarine gun, which is a psychological comfort. If it really encounters the German Navy, it will definitely rely on the escort fleet.

Passing through the crowd who were using lifting equipment to transport supplies, Fang Lang followed the messenger through the gangway and boarded the Liberty Ship, which was about to return to the United States to transport strategic supplies.
