After putting medals on everyone, MacArthur said: "Children, it was you who created miracles, dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese devils, and made great contributions to the victory of the Battle of Hawaii. You are not trash, you are members of the United States of America. Heroes, I'm proud of you!"
After hearing MacArthur's words, each of these crew members was very excited. Obviously, MacArthur's words touched the pain point deep in their hearts. The reason why these crew members came to the Silver Hanyu was not so much for combat needs. They were assigned, and no one expected them to make a difference. As long as they didn't cause trouble, they could just stay on the Silver Hanyu until they retired. However, what they didn't expect was that they actually did such a big thing. This really made many people watch. The lively people's jaws dropped.
"Children, I plan to let you return home, visit major cities in the United States, and enjoy the glory you deserve as heroes." MacArthur said.
MacArthur already had a plan in mind before the Silverfish returned home. The story of the Silverfish crew is really inspiring. They went from being ignored by trash to becoming heroes across the United States through their own efforts. Stories like this are so in line with the American hero complex that I believe they will be very popular.
Since the outbreak of the Pacific War, people have heard some bad news. Either the battle was lost, or the area was occupied by the Japanese. Americans have begun to lose confidence in victory, and let these guys return home to tour major cities. , firstly, they can boost morale, secondly, they can raise more money for the war, and thirdly, their stories can also inspire more people to join the army. This is something that achieves multiple things with one stone, why wouldn’t you do it
MacArthur couldn't help but applaud his genius idea.
Seeing the excitement of each of these crew members, MacArthur was very satisfied. His eyes glanced around the crowd, and then returned to Xu Rui.
For Xu Rui, MacArthur is now 10,000 satisfied. Through these days of fighting, Xu Rui has fully demonstrated his abilities. MacArthur did not expect that this oriental man actually contains such a great power and can turn decay into magic. , turned a group of trash into heroes all over America. This ability is something that most people do not have.
It was a wise decision to bring Xu Rui to the Pacific battlefield. Xu Rui will definitely play a greater role in future battles.
Thinking of this, MacArthur smiled and said to Xu Rui: "Xu, you have a power that can change everything. I really like you more and more."
Xu Rui said: "General MacArthur, I applied to go to the United States with the members of the Silverfish submarine."
MacArthur was stunned and said, "Why do you want to go to the United States?"
Xu Rui said: "I hope more Americans understand China, the Anti-Japanese War, and the ferocity of the enemy."
MacArthur was hesitant because he felt that letting Xu Rui stay on the battlefield would have a greater effect, but Xu Rui's reasons for going to the United States made him unable to refute.
At this moment, Nimitz came over. Nimitz was thoughtful and could see that MacArthur had concerns, so he said: "Douglas, I think that letting Xu Rui go to the United States will not only promote people's support for the Pacific War, but also help us." Understanding the opponents he faces is still very helpful, and he will definitely play a very good role when he comes to the United States."
When MacArthur heard what Nimitz said, he said: "Okay, Xu Rui, I hope you will gain something when you arrive in the United States."
MacArthur and Nimitz then saluted all the crew members, and then, with flowers, applause, and cheerful music, the welcome ceremony came to an end.
At the naval base, Xu Rui met Leng Tiefeng, Di Gua and other Lang Ya. Di Gua said: "Captain, you have had no news for several days, but you have made us anxious."
Xu Rui said: "I'm not back now?"
Xu Rui immediately told everyone about the situation of the past few days. The Wolf Yars were frightened when they heard this, and Di Gua was rubbing his hands anxiously, hating himself for not being able to catch up with such an exciting battle.
Leng Tiefeng asked: "Old Xu, are you going to the United States?"
Xu Rui nodded and said, "Yes, the Battle of Hawaii is over, and the Japanese combined fleet has retreated. The current situation is that although the Japanese fleet still has the main force, they have suffered serious losses in carrier-based aircraft and pilots, and they are unable to do so in a short period of time." There will be another large-scale attack within a certain period of time. Although the US military has air superiority, its maritime power is too weak to pursue the victory. Therefore, for a period of time in the future, the Pacific battlefield should maintain a stalemate. There is no way for me to stay here. If you have something to do, you might as well go to the United States."
"Old Xu, what is your real purpose in coming to the United States?" Leng Tiefeng asked.
Before Xu Rui answered, Digua said: "Captain, I heard that the scenery in the United States is very good, and women are very open-minded. I'm afraid you, a great hero, will get into a lot of romantic affairs when you come to the United States."
Xu Rui glared at Di Gua and said, "You don't know that since Xiao Taohong disappeared, besides Jiangnan, have I had other women?"
Digua scratched his head and said, "Captain, why don't you take me with you."
"What are you going for?" Xu Rui asked.
"I can protect you, and I can also run errands for you." Digua said.
"Come on, I still don't understand what your kid is thinking? Do you want to harm American women in the United States? Just because you have this intention, I can't take you there no matter what." Xu Rui rejected Digua directly.
"No, leader, let's discuss it again..."
"Not negotiable… "
Xu Rui doesn't want to take the sweet potato to the United States. He doesn't want to bring the stallion sweet potato to the United States to harm American women. If something happens, it will affect the image of the Chinese people.
However, Digua begged and swore to Xu Rui that he would not harm the country. In the end, Xu Rui agreed to his request and took Digua to the United States. In Xu Rui's view, although Digua was lustful, he was I am spoiled, but I still have a clear understanding of the big aspects, and I shouldn't be able to make any mistakes.
Next, Xu Rui handed over the affairs of the third regiment to Leng Tiefeng and began to make preparations to go to the United States. Two days later, Xu Rui led Digua and boarded a plane to the United States together with the crew of the Silver Hanyu submarine. , what will happen to Xu Rui this time
After a long flight, three US military C-54 "Skymaster" transport aircraft carrying members of the Silverfish submarine finally flew to Seattle, a city on the west coast of the United States. Seattle is a large city on the Pacific coast of the United States. It is very prosperous. It has become the Silverfish The crew's first stop.
As soon as they got off the plane, everyone couldn't help but be stunned. Although it was afternoon, the entire airport was packed with people. Tens of thousands of people came to the airport to welcome the heroes.
"You guys, well done!" This is an old man in his sixties shouting with arms raised.
"Soldiers, we love you!" This is what countless crazy girls are shouting.
The welcoming crowd at the airport has been separated by many security guards. Obviously, the soldiers of the Silver Hanyu received extremely high-standard security treatment. Looking at the sea of people below, James shouted: "Damn it, we have become fucking heroes."
"Haha, I like this feeling!" It was Bill who spoke.
Kelly immediately straightened her military uniform and walked down, immediately attracting the burning eyes of countless men.
"Look, there is a beautiful woman! Oh my god, how did she do it? Such a beautiful woman actually went to the battlefield..."
The entire airport turned into a boiling ocean with the appearance of the Silver Hanyu crew.
In Seattle, the crew of the Silver Hen only stayed for one night and attended a reception dinner organized by an upper-class wealthy businessman group. At the dinner, these American soldiers were in high spirits and became the focus of the audience amidst people's praise. .
These soldiers stood in two rows, as if they were in strict military discipline. They were dressed in straight military uniforms. Everyone kept a smile on their faces and took pictures with wealthy businessmen and reporters. It was not until late at night that they returned to the cave. hotel.
This is a very luxurious hotel. After entering the hotel, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Fatty Joseph fell directly on the bed and said: "I'm so damn tired. It turns out that being a hero is not comfortable either." .”
"Joseph, I laughed all night, and I feel like the muscles in my face are stiff." Stephen said.
"This is just the first day. I really don't know what will be waiting for us in the future." After Joseph finished speaking, he didn't even take off his shoes and fell asleep...
At the same time, Xu Rui received special courtesy and was arranged to stay in a single room. Xu Rui tidied up and was about to rest when there was a knock on the door outside.
Xu Rui opened the door and saw a blond beauty in military uniform standing at the door, looking at him lovingly.
"Kelly? What's the matter with you?" Xu Rui asked.
Kelly's eyes were as charming as silk, and she glanced at Xu Rui and said, "I'm scared to sleep alone. Can I sleep in your room?"
Xu Rui felt like he was about to bleed. Such a beautiful woman wanted to sleep in his room, which aroused his endless reverie.
Just when Xu Rui was about to refuse, there happened to be a flash of lightning and thunder rolling outside. Kelly was so frightened that she threw herself into his arms. She hugged Xu Rui tightly with her arms and trembled, saying, "Xu, I'm so scared."
"Okay, come in and sleep." Xu Rui let Kelly into the room, and then said, "Today you will sleep on the bed inside, and I will sleep on the sofa outside."
Kelly glanced at Xu Rui with some resentment and said, "Okay, but I need to take a shower first..."
