In the port of Fortaleza, in a military tent, Chu Meng is at the head, Fu Quansheng is at the right, and two middle-aged men in their forties are sitting on the left. One of the two middle-aged men is named Xi Caixin and the other is named Zhang Muhua. For the local leaders of the overseas Chinese living in the United States, the evacuation operation is not as smooth as it seems on the surface. Among them, convincing the overseas Chinese who have already taken root in the United States to give up the business they have worked for decades or even centuries to return to the motherland is a difficult problem. After all, In a practical sense, their current home is in the United States. Although the coalition government has promised to protect their lives in the country, and they also have the opportunity and choice to return to the United States, one reason is that have adapted to the Westernized life in the United States; in view of the credibility of the former central government, they have no confidence in the coalition government at all. Therefore, more than half of them are entangled in choosing whether to stay or leave. Among them, some with more agitated personalities even They were angry with the coalition government, so they spoke harshly to the staff of the "American Evacuation Operations Command". Fortunately, the Americans were very helpful at this time. As a result, anti-Chinese forces in the United States were able to rise again, and violent incidents against Chinese and overseas Chinese were also increasing day by day. As a result, those who still had illusions about the U.S. government The overseas Chinese finally woke up and the evacuation work got on track.
Xi Caixin and Zhang Muhua, as local leaders of overseas Chinese living in the United States, held positions in the "American Evacuation Operations Command". They took the initiative to come to Chu Meng at this time, but it was to discuss the possibility of temporarily settling in Brazil.
The two people had this idea because of what they saw and heard after arriving in Fortaleza.
At this time, there was no smell of war in the air in Fortaleza. Fu Quansheng suggested recruiting Brazilian prisoners of war to serve as a construction army. This suggestion itself was not problematic, but because the Brazilians did not have the consciousness of being prisoners of war at all (could it be Because it was the first time he was a prisoner of war,) and the special operations brigade did not regard Brazilian prisoners of war as a threat, so at the beginning, the trainee who was responsible for overseeing the work of the special operations brigade was deeply hurt because of the looseness and freedom of the Brazilians. The brains are no better than in their own land, or in Southeast Asia or the Middle East. The Political Department has many ways to deceive the locals or media people, so it doesn't matter if they treat prisoners of war harshly. Brazil is right under the nose of the United States, and from then on Since yesterday, reporters from all over South America have stayed near the port in the name of reporting. Therefore, it is okay to scold them, but not to hit them. However, I don’t know if it is because of too much sun, but Brazilians are so shameless. Therefore, they also have considerable defensive power. What makes the supervisors helpless is that no matter how loud their voices are and how cruel their expressions are, the Brazilians always scold you and me for being lazy. In the end, the supervisors failed to do anything to the Brazilian prisoners of war. , but he almost lost his temper and fell ill. When the situation was reported to Chu Meng, what could Chu Meng do except say a few harsh words. Chu Tiange and Yu Jishi were forced by the pressure of the Supreme Command. At a critical moment, Fu Quansheng was the winner. After figuring out a way, he proposed two measures: one is to let the Brazilians self-supervise, and the other is to implement more rewards for more work. The former is to let the Brazilian prisoners of war take care of themselves, and the latter is to force the Brazilian prisoners of war to control the distribution of food and other supplies. Brazilians sell coolies.
Facts have proved that these two measures are indeed effective in curing the laziness of Brazilians. At the same time, because Chinese soldiers are no longer involved in the management of prisoners of war, the atmosphere in the prisoner-of-war camp has naturally become more relaxed. This atmosphere has expanded outward and affected For the residents of Fortaleza, the result was that when Xi Caixin and Zhang Muhua came to Fortaleza, they actually felt that the Brazilians were very friendly, and they speculated that the relationship between China and Brazil should be good.
The two of them thought that the Brazilian government had been recruiting immigrants from all over the world since the beginning of this century, and that the relationship between the governments of China and Brazil was relatively harmonious, so they began to think of settling in Brazil temporarily or even permanently.
Chu Meng was surprised at first by the two people's request. However, because Fu Quansheng felt that it would be conducive to the Sinicization of Fortaleza, he still tolerated it and convened such a small-scale discussion meeting.
Chu Meng was relatively inexperienced in matters other than military matters, and he was self-aware, so he made Fu Quansheng the plenipotentiary representative responsible for communicating with Xi Caixin and Zhang Muhua.
Fu Quansheng: "We can respond to your request to the top. However, in view of the current situation in the country, we think the government cannot give you too many material resources. You two must also know that under the current circumstances, it is difficult to deal with the United States and Japan. The threat of a coalition is the nation's top priority."
"Clear, of course we know it, otherwise we would not respond to the country's call to abandon our foundation in the United States and join in the evacuation of overseas Chinese. We are here to express our position. As long as the country can help us solve government-level problems, we can rely on our own strength to Settled in Fortaleza.”
"That's it, then I think the country should agree to your request."
"We have one more small request."
"Speaking."
"That is, can you stay here longer? We know this is too much to ask for."
"It's not too much, it's our responsibility to protect our own citizens, and we will respond to the top."
"Thank you very much, sirs. To express our gratitude, please accept this." Xi Caixin said, lifting a small box at his feet and placing it in front of Chu Meng.
Chu Meng and Fu Quansheng looked at each other, and the latter smiled and said: "Two gentlemen, we appreciate your kindness, but please take the things back. Haha, it seems that you still have misunderstandings about us, but it doesn't matter, it takes a long time. You will know after that.”
Obviously they didn't expect them to refuse. Both Xi Caixin and Xi Caixin looked a little embarrassed. Maybe they thought they were just pretending to evade. Zhang Muhua said: "Two sirs, it's just a little care. Please don't take it too lightly. This matter is ours." The four of us know that once we leave this door, we will completely forget about this incident."
Fu Quansheng had a good temper, but Chu Meng was straight-tempered. He frowned and said, "Hurry up and take it back. Who do you think we are? Are we going overseas just to get promoted and make a fortune? Okay, that's it, little manager, see the guests off." "
After his statement, Xi Caixin and Xi Caixin realized that they really refused to accept the gift. They were a little shocked. At the same time, they couldn't help but look at them. They quickly stood up, apologized, and took the box back.
Fu Quansheng: "That's it for today. By the way, I would like to give you two words of advice. Our Commander Chu has a good temper and will not care about such things. However, not everyone has such a good temper. This kind of thing can be dealt with directly. Sent to military court."
When Xi Caixin and Xi Caixin heard that it was so serious, they quickly apologized again, and then they felt completely relieved.
From the small to the big, from the small to the big, the country has such an army and officers, what else do they need to worry about.
