Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat

  Chapter 663 The real purpose of General Crook

  General Crook's meaning is very clear. If he wants to let de la Torre succeed, he must pay a certain amount of benefits in exchange. Otherwise, those who want this position will never let go easily.

   Fang Lang is not worried about this. The current Rio de Janeiro fleet has already been monolithically managed by him. Even if the other party sunburns a hundred people in their fleet, it will definitely disappear.

   Maybe some people will be assimilated by the people of the fleet very quickly. This is the experience they have summed up from the constant people coming in and out over the past few years. After all, the military camp is a big melting pot, no matter what kind of material you are, it will melt you when you enter it.

   Of course, the melting mentioned here is just the way of doing things and work habits. They will soon become the same as other people in the fleet.

However, there are also some unexpected situations, but these guys who cannot be integrated into the fleet, whether it is his subordinate officers or ordinary soldiers, are dikes and alienated from him, and even the orders issued are not carried out at all. .

  If he wants to punish his subordinates who are against him, his superior officer will definitely come out and clean him up first. In this case, he either chooses to stay in the fleet and blend in with everyone obediently, or he takes the initiative to apply for transfer.

   This is not to say that these people who have integrated into the fleet are really of one mind with Fang Lang in their hearts. Some of them may be arranged because they feel that this place is more promising, but there are also a large number of people who are for the purpose of controlling this fleet.

  Especially some officers with higher ranks, when they entered the fleet, they obviously came to pick peaches on behalf of other forces.

  But the fleet already has some experience in dealing with these people, especially those like Colonel Valdo Glava, who were arranged to gain real power.

  Basically, they have been reworked by a set of back-to-the-melt tactics, and the division of labor within the fleet has deviated from their original purpose and become marginalized people in the fleet.

  Although these people have great opinions, they can only hold back in the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier fleet, because they themselves or the forces behind them forced them in.

  Here is the army, of course they have to obey the management of the fleet after they come in, and the commander of the fleet, Lang, and the Minister of the Navy have the same attitude towards their arrival, so how can they complain.

  Even if their backstage wanted to say something, Fang Lang ignored it. They are continuing to eat and die in the fleet.

  In this case, those people are of course very unwilling, and they will not give up easily. Therefore, it is not surprising that General Crook will say such words this time.

However, Fang Lang obviously would not allow his fleet to be taken away by others. These people thought that if he left the fleet, he would be able to gain the command of the fleet. As everyone knows, he left the fleet not because he was retired, but as a step forward .

  His authority has become greater, even surpassing those big figures behind those forces. In this case, if these guys entered the fleet, it would mean throwing themselves into the net, let alone having no chance to achieve their goals.

   "Don't worry, General, I will not let you down. Since they are willing to join the family of our aircraft carrier fleet, of course I welcome them with my hands up.

However, you also know that our aircraft carrier fleet is a new branch in Brazil, using new tactics and tactics. In order to allow them to adapt to the work and life of the fleet faster, I plan to tell all the new officers and soldiers who joined the fleet, together Conduct training assessments.

  Let them familiarize themselves with their professional knowledge as soon as possible and improve their professional level. Only when their assessment results reach the appointment standards of the relevant positions, can they be qualified to become official officers of this position.

  Of course, please rest assured, Your Excellency, this assessment is not aimed at these new members, but all fleet officers and soldiers are treated equally. "

  Hearing this, General Crook looked at Fang Lang in shock. He didn't expect you to be so ruthless. Let those senior officers continue to study and participate in the assessment. This is not killing them.

   It's not that they can't study and assess. The problem is that the entire Brazilian army has never played this way before!

   But I have to say that there is nothing wrong with Fang Lang's proposal. The purpose must be to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops. Wherever this issue is discussed, no one else can find any faults.

   But is there anything tricky in it? You don't need to say this too clearly, you can only say that you understand everything. General Crook, who wanted to understand this, couldn't help coughing twice and said:

   "Cough, cough, I'm about to leave the position of Minister of the Navy. In the future, the specific work of your Navy Department, you chief officers of the Navy Department can decide by themselves.

  However, I think the method you mentioned is an effective means to improve the combat effectiveness and professional skills of troops, and I personally strongly support it.

  If it can be successfully promoted in your Ministry of the Navy, I will also arrange personnel from the Ministry of Defense to come to your door to learn from you and see if it can be promoted in the entire army. "

   After speaking, it seemed that his mouth was a little dry, and he couldn't help picking up the teacup in front of him, and swallowed it down.

   Seeing this, Fang Lang smiled calmly, thinking to himself, where is this going, someone wants to pick peaches, and I still have a lot of means waiting for him! When the time comes, they are guaranteed to make them want to die, and they have nothing to say.

  Don't talk about picking peaches when the time comes, I will confiscate even the tools you brought over.

  As for General Crook's idea of ​​letting him implement this system himself, Fang Lang didn't care. To be honest, introducing the concept of assessment in a team that doesn't need assessment is indeed easy to arouse everyone's hostility.

  He is about to enter the Ministry of Defense. At this time, there is really no need to add extra details and arouse the resentment of others.

  However, this has nothing to do with Fang Lang. You can think of picking peaches from me, I can't give you a test question yet!

   Regardless of whether General Crook agrees or disagrees with this matter, it has little to do with it, and it does not affect his implementation of the aircraft carrier battle group in Rio de Janeiro.

  But General Crook did not object, and even Fang Lang was taken aback by the idea of ​​promoting this system throughout the army.

   Good guy, when the whole army spreads it, those old-fashioned officers still scold themselves to death in their hearts! But what does it matter! Anyway, I also want to improve the combat effectiveness of the Brazilian National Defense Forces.

  At the same time, he is also more clear in his heart that once this model is rolled out across the army, reforms will soon be further deepened. At that time, all officers will be promoted, and they will no longer be able to rely on bribing the chief.

   Instead, you can only rely on your own achievements and military exploits. It is definitely difficult to obtain military exploits in peacetime. But grades can be obtained through study, and the importance of military academies will definitely become extremely important by then.

   It just so happens that several military academies in Brazil are now inseparable from Fang Lang. Whether it is the Aviation Academy or the Brazilian Military Academy, there is Fang Lang behind them.

  This predestined that the future recruits in Brazil are more or less half of Fanglang's students. Although the teachers and students in Brazil are not as concerned as their hometown, there is still a certain degree of love.

   At that time, Fang Lang's influence in the Brazilian army will naturally increase subtly.

  After clearly knowing that General Crook had no objection, Fang Lang immediately felt relieved. Once again, he graciously added tea to General Crook's teacup:

   "Yes, please rest assured, Your Excellency General, we must earnestly explore and summarize, and we will definitely come up with an effective training and assessment plan when the time comes!"

   After finishing speaking, he did not forget to smile at General Crook, that cheap expression made General Crook roll his eyes.

   I can't help but sigh, Fang Lang's brain is really flexible, and what he thought would cause Fang Lang's strong rebound was resolved so easily by him.

   This made him value Fang Lang even more. After all, how could such an excellent subordinate make him dislike him.

   "General Fang, what about work matters! We're done talking for now, but I have a personal matter here, and I want to ask you about it. I don't know if it's convenient."

   After talking about the business, General Crook chatted with Fang Lang for a few more words, and finally couldn't help the curiosity in his heart, and said with some coyness.

  Looking at the expression on General Crook's face, Fang Lang couldn't help being a little puzzled. What's the situation, what private topic does General Crook and himself have to talk about?

   Could it be that she thinks that I am very talented, so in order to win me over better, she plans to betroth her daughter to me? But it doesn't make sense! General Crook is very aware of my romantic history, how could he be willing to push his daughter into the fire pit!

  No, I'm not a pit of fire here, I'm a solid blue chip stock, many women want it but haven't had a chance! Soon he realized that General Crook's woman had already married and had children. Impossible to introduce myself.

   Then why? Although he thought so in his heart, there was no hesitation on his face, he patted his chest and said:

   "Whatever your Excellency said, your business is my business. If you want to know anything, you can just say it. I will know everything and say everything."

   Seeing Fang Lang's unhesitating attitude, General Crook felt relieved, and after thinking about it, he stopped hiding it. After taking a deep breath, he slowly said:

   "I heard people say that Mr. Scalia, who participated in the presidential election on behalf of the National League, seems to have a very good relationship with your Fang family?"

  Hearing this, Fang Lang suddenly realized that he thought it was a private matter! After a long time, it was General Crook who wanted to get closer to the new president! It has to be said that General Crook, as an excellent senior military officer, already has enough insight into politics.

  Before the presidential election was over, they began to move closer to the new president.

  However, he quickly realized that it was not too early for this situation. After all, even Marshal Morais, Minister of Defense, was ready to step down, and even the transfer of power had quietly begun.

  This can only show that President Dutra is ready to step down, or that the Ministry of Defense has abandoned President Dutra. Under such circumstances, it is perfectly normal for General Crook to choose to move closer to Mr. Scalia.

  After understanding General Crook's plan, Fang Lang certainly would not hide anything. He nodded without hesitation and said:

"Yes, as early as when Mr. Scalia was the mayor of Sao Paulo, our Fang family had forged a deep friendship with him. The achievements of our Fangyuan Group cannot be separated from Mr. Scalia. support.

  So, this time Mr. Scalia participated in the election, our family also made some efforts.

  At the same time, Mr. Scalia's secretary is my cousin. If General Crook wants to meet with Mr. Scalia, I can ask my cousin to help you arrange it. "

  Fang Lang's remarks are heartfelt, but these things are not secrets, although several large companies under the Fangyuan Group have different parties and different congressmen they support.

  But in this presidential campaign, most of the Fangyuan Group's political resources are tilted towards Scalia.

  Although everyone doesn't know, Scalia is actually Fang Lang's presidential candidate. But it is also very clear about the close connection between Fangyuan Group and Scalia.

   This is why General Crook asked Fang Lang. At the same time, it was also the real reason why General Crook visited Fang Lang, a subordinate, in his private capacity.

  General Crook did not expect Fang Lang to be so frank. Originally, when he recommended Fang Lang as Minister of the Navy, he considered the relationship between Fang Lang and Scalia. But what surprised him was that Fang Lang turned down the appointment.

   This made him mistakenly think that the relationship between Scalia and their family was not as good as the outside world said. But now after hearing Fang Lang's words, he knew that the relationship between the Fang family and President Scalia was even closer than the outside rumors.

   Otherwise, why Fang Lang's cousin can serve as the other party's secretary, and Fang Lang can also promise casually to arrange a meeting with Mr. President. Based on his understanding of Fang Lang, he would never make a promise if he was not absolutely sure.

  General Crook, who had a clear mind, couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly, and after taking a deep look at Fang Lang, he smiled and said:

   "Oh! That's really great. If this is the case, my position in the Ministry of Defense should be more stable!"

  Crook's tone of talking to himself, in Fang Lang's ears, was obviously tentative. Fang Lang just smiled slightly, and he knew why General Crook said that.

   "Haha... I think General Crook is fully capable of taking up the position of Minister of Defense with General Crook's ability. Would you like me to have someone recommend you, General, to Mr. Scalia?"

  Fang Lang's words are obviously showing his strength, and he knows very well in his heart, although he has a very close relationship with General Crook. However, as a senior general, he has already left the pure attributes of ordinary soldiers and began to move closer to politicians.

  And an excellent politician will not care about the so-called friendship. They only have interests in their eyes, which can be exchanged for interests.

  If someone can now use greater interests to come to General Crook to exchange the position of commander of the Fang Lang Fleet, will General Crook still stick to his position?

   It should be difficult for Fang Lang to guess people's hearts. This time, the reason why General Crook quietly visited his subordinate's house in his private capacity, and had a heart-to-heart chat with Fang Lang for so long, is probably because of what he said just now. He heard that the Fang family and Sculley The reason for the close relationship with Mr. Ya.

  This is also the reason why Fang Lang deliberately said these seemingly arrogant words to show his strength.
