Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

Fang Lang did not expect that Colonel Teach would answer him like this.

Obviously, the other party's intention is very clear. He can change positions as long as he needs it, and he can go wherever he wants him to go.

In this regard, Fang Lang was noncommittal, his expression did not change at all, and he continued to eat the food while slowly speaking:

"Do you have a place you want to go?"

Colonel Teach shook his head slightly, let out a breath and said:

"No, I never thought about this problem before. I thought I would work in this position until retirement."

Seeing the other party sitting upright, Fang Lang motioned for the other party to pick up the chopsticks and said with a smile:

"Don't be so serious, let's chat while eating."

Although Fang Lang behaved casually, as if chatting, Colonel Teach knew very well that his words now might affect the direction of his military career in the next few years.

He has never doubted Fang Lang's influence on the Brazilian Navy. Although the other party is much younger than himself, the other party has grown rapidly in the past few years, and the other party's family has become more and more influential in Brazil.

What's more, Fang Lang still wants me to serve as Chief of Naval Staff, which is a real power position. You must know that the current Secretary of the Navy, General Crook, did not step down from the position of Chief of Naval Staff.

Fang Lang also thought that Adams Teach actually recommended his hand, which made Fang Lang look at the old bad guy in his mind with admiration after facing him again.

When the other party served as chief of naval staff, he actually controlled all the minor and major affairs of the entire Brazilian Navy. Although he did not have the qualifications and abilities of the other party.

If this is not enough, look at his close relationship with the Secretary of the Navy, the Secretary of Defense and the President. If you want to help him operate, it will not be too difficult to change positions.

After Brazil entered the Second World War, he was transferred to the Naval Training Department to serve as a casualty because of his German identity.

But apart from that option, there are no other options? Adams Teach ended up looking for a suitable candidate outside his mind. First of all, that person must be willing to stick to Fang Lang's command, or even someone who only follows the other party's lead.<

/p>

Hearing this, Adams Teach waved his hands repeatedly and said:

In fact, Che Qian is not worried about whether Adams Teach is qualified for the post of Chief of Naval Staff. After all, the old bad guy is suitable for management.

"You are very willing.

How should I put it? If you have to give me an evaluation, do you think I am a real soldier?"

Such a person must be someone like me who has no front-end outside the navy.

As for Stitch Heidevisch's ability, Fang Lang could also draw a conclusion from Adams Teach's words, but since he is not capable of serving as a cruiser captain at the age of eighty, he should still not have certain abilities.

.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Adams Teach took a deep breath. While calming down his mood, he picked up the chopsticks under the table again and said hurriedly:

"Fang, although your current position is rather embarrassing, it must be said that as a naval base that protects the capital, both strength and location are very important.

"Is there no place where I need you?"

Looking at Adams Teach without any weird expression, Che Qian asked doubtfully:

"That man's name is Stich Heydwig. He should be about 40 years old this year. He is a German-Brazilian born in Salvador. He graduated from the Royal Military Academy of Portugal. After serving as a gunnery commander in the Navy, he worked as a foreign minister.

Captain of the cruiser Grandet Chausaurus.

Once Adams Teach leaves, there will definitely not be a large number of people eyeing that position, and it will be a tense competition.

"Oh! When he said that, you lost interest.

Che Qian went through all the people in her mind, and finally found the right candidate after a while. She could only look at Adams Teach opposite and said:

Adams Teach had a personal name in his mind, and suddenly no name came to my mind. I thought about that person's resume and found that it was indeed very suitable. Did he know that I would be willing to be attached to Fang Lang?

.

"Of course I'm not interested. That way, if there is no new news from the Navy Department, you can notify him as soon as possible!"

Hearing this, Adams Teach also frowned. I never thought that I would have the opportunity to take a step back. Therefore, I never thought that no one would be suitable for my current position before I left.

But what made me think was that the other party actually transferred the cruiser captain to a sinecure position just because he took advantage of the situation and asked someone to step down.

So, when Che Qian asked if she wanted to change positions, I knew my opportunity had come.

Therefore, I rejected that option directly.

"What you mean is that since you continue to stay in your current position, if there is a chance to take a step back, let him jump out.

Tell me, who is that person? Have you heard of him?"

Yes, Colonel Adams Teach is a very stupid person. I knew that Fang Lang would definitely treat me badly. So, I didn’t even mention where I wanted to go. Instead, I repeatedly told Fang Lang that he needed you to go.

Wherever you go, go wherever you go.

More importantly, I feel that I can recommend the people under my command. Because that will give Fang Lang the idea that I want to cultivate my own personal power.

However, as far as you know, the reason for my transfer is actually related to my German identity. It is just because no one followed the path of the original Minister of the Navy and wanted to be the captain of the cruiser Trans-Ogrande Chauso.
Certainly, once you leave that position, you feel that there is no need for him to arrange for one of his own to guard the outside."

Yes, the worst thing is for Fang Lang to decide on his own. He is only responsible for recommendations. Whether to use it or not depends on the choices of both parties.

But knowing the truth, as Che Qian said, participating in the construction of the Navy's first self-built warship is not a real political achievement. Without that political achievement as a foundation, and without Fang Lang stepping forward to promote it, he would really be useless.

The chance to win is a sure bet.

Of course Fang Lang can see the importance of that position, but my experience in the Navy is still relatively young. It will take a while to find a suitable candidate to replace Adams Teach.

Thinking of Adams Teach outside, his whole body was trembling consciously. At worst, it was difficult to stabilize his emotions, and he said in a panic:

"Of course it is. In reality, in your opinion, that guy has a less rigid personality and is very rigid in doing things. He is very flexible. But it must be said that I am a truly incompetent person. Almost everyone hates to associate with me.
Now it has begun to undertake the construction tasks of naval warships.

He could only shake his head and say:

I have been working hard in the Navy for half my life. Of course, there are no people under my command who are suitable for that position. But unfortunately, my military rank and qualifications are enough.

After saying that, he stretched out his chopsticks to pick up some food. He seemed not to be worried about Adams Teach misunderstanding and did not continue:

Obviously, that Stitch Heydwig gave a gift to Mr. Minister of the Navy!

Adams Teach, who wanted to understand this point, hesitated and said directly:

Speaking of which, my current position can be regarded as one of the few positions of real power in the Brazilian Navy.

So, I was replaced."

"You don't have anyone else to choose from. Do you know that I am willing to move closer to you?"

At this moment, Adams Teach could understand what Fang Lang meant. He was not trying to push himself down from the position of chief of naval staff!

"Doesn't he have a suitable candidate?"

At the same time, if you want to become the commander of the naval base that guards the capital, you must have insufficient capabilities to be able to completely control the naval base.

After all, the person in that position must have the rank of junior colonel at most, and the naval base commander of the Capital Garrison is actually the leader among all naval base commanders in Brazil.

But I don’t have Fang Lang’s support! It’s equivalent to getting the support of half the navy. Where can I find such bad things?

If the Ministry of the Navy needs to send someone to participate in the construction of new warships now, and he does not have rich front-line work experience, and he does not have even one of the "Fletcher" class destroyers you are using now, it will be a problem for him.

That warship is very unfamiliar.

As soon as he heard that, Fang Lang became interested. The meaning of the other party's words was very obvious. No one is incapable of that ability, but he is my person. He knows whether the other party is willing to join his camp.

As Fang Lang said, in his current position as the commander of the Naval Base in Lenneliro, there must be ordinary situations where there is no war, and his subordinates are basically expected to be promoted.

"That is the first 7,000-ton modern destroyer independently developed by your country. Once that warship is successfully completed with his participation, his contribution will definitely be great.

But, to be honest, I had never thought about that problem before. Suddenly, I knew where to go.

Colonel Tiqi obviously misunderstood what Che Qian meant, but such an attitude did give Fang Lang something to say.

After that, we can no longer consider moving to the position of Chief of Naval Staff."

That made Fang Lang laugh and cry. Who was the original Minister of the Navy? Fang Lang only heard his name but never saw him. But the person who could be almost ignored by General Crook should, in Fang Lang's mind, be

He is a guy with mediocre abilities.

Now that I heard Fang Lang's question, I started to think about it.

Fang, please worry! You must only follow his orders."

But since I am young, I no longer have the motivation to continue racing under the ocean. Instead, I hope that I will not have the chance to become a general, and my life will be considered complete.

He also knew the situation in the Brazilian army. It was not possible to get promoted just by currying favor with his superiors. But that guy was an exception.

It should be more appropriate for him to take charge of ship design and construction work with Fangyuan Shipyard."

But regarding my work ability, no one has ever dared to say that I am good at it. As long as I am given clear instructions, I will be able to complete it perfectly.

Fang Lang smiled, picked up a piece of braised pork, stuffed it into his mouth, and asked Colonel Teach:

The family business has supported the entire Brazilian defense industry, giving Brazil the ability to produce its own guns and artillery, and even accepted the commission from the Air Force to start developing training aircraft.

After all, if you want to be promoted to the rank of general in the Navy through seniority, is there any chance?

But I still don’t have a suitable candidate at hand, so I can only push the other person away. Now it seems that the guy is really reassuring in terms of loyalty.

That was a naked show of loyalty. Soon Adams Teach seemed to have thought of something, and quickly said to Fang Lang:

Of course, Adams Teach should also recommend the other party to him, but with those words, there is obviously a way to satisfy Fang Lang.

"Why would he want to recommend that person? Is it because I am a sinecure now and it is difficult to decide?"

"Aren't you interested in sitting in the office of the Naval Staff?"

Adams Teach's words could be regarded as putting himself under Fang Lang's command without any scruples, and he immediately stopped advising Fang Lang.
