When Fang Lang boarded the House early the next morning, his head was still drowsy when he left Okinawa Island. Fortunately, the current Okinawa waters are all the territory of the Allied forces, and the Japanese are not something he can meet if he wants to.

In fact, the straight-line distance from Okinawa Island is only about 900 kilometers from Hangzhou Bay. If you go directly to Hangzhou Bay with the maximum speed of House with 35 knots, it will only take less than twenty hours to reach.

Of course, it is impossible for ships to sail at the highest speed. Therefore, the House has been sailing west at a speed of twenty knots. Fang Lang's target is not the mainland, because if he gets too close to land, he will enter the attack range of the Japanese aviation force.

Although Japan is short of fuel now, it still has oil reserves in China. The Japanese are now trying to find ways to transport strategic materials such as fuel to Japan.

These transport ships are Fang Lang's target of attack. It's not that Fang Lang doesn't want to attack the Japanese mainland directly, but if he drives the ship alone and attacks directly at Japan, it will basically end up like Tang Jikede.

War is not a market fight, so you can't do it recklessly. Fang Lang ordered the Hope to take the first cruise to Shanghai to Nagasaki. He was looking for ships in the East China Sea that might go from Taiwan to Japan.

I don’t know if the Japanese Navy was really fucked down. The two warships found nothing for three days. This made Fang Lang very angry and he thought that he was late. It seemed that the little Japanese had really been fucked down.

After asking the Fifth aircraft carrier fleet for instructions, Fang Lang began to shift his target and ordered the Hope to go directly to the Korean Strait and attack ships traveling between North Korea and Japan near Tsushima Island.

Fang Lang himself followed the House and began to test forward towards Shanghai, trying to test whether the Japanese Air Force would send military aircraft to attack him for his warship.

Because the farthest detection distance of the Fletcher-class destroyer's air-to-air radar was 120 kilometers. Therefore, on July 12, Fang Lang directly led the House and broke into a distance of less than 100 nautical miles from Shanghai.

But let alone Japanese planes, I didn’t even encounter a Japanese ship. This made Fang Lang very angry. He ran over thousands of miles to fight you, but you didn’t show up anymore, which made me feel embarrassed.

On July 13, Fang Lang's House simply broke into a distance of about fifty kilometers from Shanghai to attract the enemy to attack at close range.

However, Fang Lang did not dare to enter the distance within fifty kilometers, because this was the longest range of the Japanese Type 90 240mm heavy cannon.

If it was made by Japanese heavy artillery, it would be more than worth the effort. After all, Shanghai was not Japan, so Fang Lang could not attack Shanghai. The firepower of Fang Lang destroyer could not reach the Japanese.

The result was unexpectedly, the Japanese seemed blind, and were indifferent to the approach of the House. Just as Fang Lang cursed the Japanese on the House.

The Hope heard good news from the Korean Strait, sinking a transport ship from North Korea to Japan. It also contacted the American submarine that was carrying out a blockade mission in the Korean Strait, and played the wolf pack tactic invented by the Germans.

This hurt Fang Lang very much. For the first time, he wanted to own an aircraft carrier from the bottom of his heart, so that there would be no embarrassing situation like now.

Similarly, Fang Lang also saw the weakness of the Japanese from this situation. Fang Lang could not have imagined that the Japanese actually let the House get directly close to such a close distance without being moved.

Fang Lang simply did not do anything and began to block the offshore areas of Shanghai, and did not believe that the Japanese really would not run out.

Just when Fang Lang hit the cotton with one punch and couldn't find the enemy, Universal Steel and Universal Shipbuilding, which were far away in the United States, finally completed the acquisition and integration work.

It owns steel companies and shipyards across the United States, Britain, Germany and Italy. Although the size of steel plants and shipyards in each country is not large.

Even factories in the United States are of a research institute, but it cannot be denied that the two companies have officially obtained the qualifications to enter the steel market and the shipbuilding market.

The first key task after the company completed the integration was to officially start joint venture negotiations with Brazilian Fangyuan Group, and plan to invest in the establishment of steel plants and shipyards in São Paulo, Brazil.

This project has been highly valued by the Brazilian government, the Brazilian military, and the São Paulo municipal government. The Brazilian Fangyuan Group has also appeared in the eyes of Brazilian politicians and Brazilian people for the first time.

The Brazilian Navy and the Brazilian Expeditionary Force even came forward to stand up for Fangyuan Group, making this company, which just established in Brazil, become a household name in one day and is on the front page of major Brazilian newspapers.

This shocked the turbulent Brazilian political arena. Don’t think that the author’s description is exaggerated. The reason why Brazil has become the only country in South America to send troops to participate in the European war.

It was because in the summer of 1940 that the Brazilian government launched negotiations with the United States and Germany at the same time in order to build the earliest modern large steel plant.

In the end, the US government reached an agreement with Brazilian President Vagas to build a steel plant at Volta Ranch for Brazil to provide an interest-free loan of 10 million US dollars.

It marks Brazil's official abandonment of Germany and joining the US camp. This shows how much influence a modern steel plant will have on the Brazilian government.

In fact, the so-called joint venture negotiations seem to have been repeated for outsiders, and even attracted large capital in Brazil to participate in a share. Unfortunately, they didn't know that all this was a scene.

Therefore, the large capital in Brazil is destined to gain nothing.

On July 13, Fangyuan Group officially announced the establishment of a joint venture and began investment negotiations with the government, planning to invest 20 million US dollars to establish a steel plant and a shipyard in Brazil.

Fang Lang was naturally very happy to receive this news, which could have dispelled his depressed mood for several days.

Early in the morning of July 14, the House radar found a ship approaching the House. Fang Lang thought it was the Japanese that were finally going to fight, so he quickly ordered House to turn.

But when the other party entered the visible range of the lookout, they found that it was a wooden fishing boat. This made the crew of the House decide that it was boring, and they thought the Japanese were driving a wooden fishing boat to attack.

Just as he was about to aim at the opponent and kill him with one shot, Fang Lang suddenly remembered that this time he didn't seem to feel hostility!

Instead, he ordered the sailor to take ten soldiers to drive a traffic boat and confirm the situation. Don't wait until the fishermen are guilty of the crime.

Soon the sailor brought back two people dressed like fishermen, and reported to Fang Lang that they were national military intelligence personnel, hoping to meet the Allied Commander.

Fang Lang looked at the two of them carefully for a while and then spoke:

"What are you doing! What's the matter here!"

When the two of them saw the soldiers who brought them over, there were a few yellow men and a black man in the middle, they felt a little upset. When they approached, they had never seen the military flag on the warship before, they were wondering!

When an officer on the other side asked in Chinese, he was even more stunned. An older man, who seemed to be about fifty years old, spoke on his own initiative:

"Sir, are you allied troops?"

He was obviously much younger when he heard the other party's voice! This made Fang Lang look at the man opposite more carefully. He turned around and asked the sailor in a low voice:

"Has your body searched?"

I thought to myself, don’t wait for two Japanese spies to assassinate you from close range, that would be embarrassing.

The sailor nodded.

Fang Langcai replied:

"We are the warships of the Allies, who are you?"

Hearing Fang Lang's answer, the two of them were obviously relieved. The man who took the initiative to speak continued:

"Sir, your Mandarin is really good. My name is Zhong Ze. I am the major intelligence officer at the Shanghai Station of the Military Intelligence Bureau of the National Government. Next to this is Qiu Yuyi, the translator I brought. I am very happy to see you."

These two people are also the first group of real fellow villagers that Fang Lang met after he returned from rebirth. However, Fang Lang knew very well that the Japanese intelligence agencies were powerful, and he could not trust them easily.

Don't wait to be used by the Japanese, it will be a big trouble.

"Do you have evidence?"

Zhong Ze glanced at the soldiers who were guarding the guns around him and pointed at the position of his belt.

Fang Lang understood what he meant, and didn't say anything, just waved his head. A soldier stepped forward and groped with the position where the man pointed. He quickly found a hard object, took it out and checked it before handing it to Fang Lang.

After a closer look, it turned out to be a document of identity, which roughly means that the Kuomintang sent two military intelligence personnel to board the ship to contact the plan to jointly attack the Japanese army, and hereby prove it.
Chapter completed!
