"Send Pochi a telegram and tell him to shoot and sink the two ships immediately when he sees them. Then ask Harvey to ask his cousin to write an article with the title "Italian Navy Smacks Turkish Arms Smugglers Heavy Blow."
The purpose of doing this is to give smuggling a personality first.
They are also smuggled, and seaweed and arms are completely different in the hearts of the people.
Now is the time of war, who doesn't want to have a gun for self-defense.
"In the manuscript, we should briefly explain how the Turkish arms smugglers pretended to be the fleet of our trading company and endangered our reputation. We must strongly criticize this illegal businessman..."
"understand!"
Just now, Niveno and the others were still arguing about this, but the godfather turned around and gave a solution, which made them have to admire the godfather's wise decision.
If the two ships traveling between Turkey and Catania were sunk, Solaso's attempts to frame Corleone's reputation would be dashed.
Since there is no poppy smuggling ship under the banner of Corleone, the refining workshop on the island has nothing to do with Corleone.
"Godfather, what should we do next?" Niveno asked.
Russell glanced at everyone in the room, and said indifferently: "Let's go to America and kill the grass!"
Chapter 134 Marlena's decision, I dare not be greedy
What is cutting the weeds and eradicating the roots?
As we all know, the roots of grass grow deep and densely in the soil, so if you want to pull out this grass, you have to find all the roots, even a tiny one.
"Phillisto, send your people to America for vacation."
"understand!"
Nivino asked: "Godfather, are we going to work in the United States in the future?"
Russell glanced at everyone in the room and said, "Our goal is the whole world, not America or Sicily!"
Everyone blushed when they heard the words. It was so inspiring to say such words from the mouth of the godfather.
After the meeting, Nivino, Olijato and others went to the courtyard to entertain the guests.
Philisto turned around at the door, turned and opened the door to enter the study, walked up to Russell and whispered, "Godfather, Hagen has been waiting outside for a long time."
"Let him come to see me."
Philisto got up and went outside to call Hagen. This is like seeing a doctor in a hospital. The patient can only enter the consulting room after the doctor calls his number.
Hagen straightened his suit and walked in with a humble face.
Respectfully bowed and said hello to Russell.
"Sit down and talk, Hagen, we know each other well and don't be so formal."
"Ok."
Hagen was sitting on the sofa opposite Russell. He saw Russell taking out his cigar, got up quickly and took out the lighter from his pocket, bent over and moved over in small steps, holding the fire and lighting it for him.
Russell sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, exhaling smoke.
"How is Rand doing recently? I don't seem to have heard from him in the past six months."
Hagen replied: "Rand was transferred from the General Staff Headquarters in Sicily to the combat command room of the Italian Northern Army. His rank was mentioned as a colonel, and he served as the deputy commander of the Left Staff."
Of course Russell knew Rand's whereabouts. Rand was able to enter the Northern Army's combat command room because he asked Vitini to do it.
What he wanted was Hagen's attitude. Although he was cautious when he came in just now, it was only in action, not in language.
"Harvey told me that when you were working in Messina, you helped him a lot and taught him a lot."
Hagen's face moved slightly, and he said, "Don't dare, Mayor Harvey is very good and deeply loved by the citizens. I just completed my job as a deputy."
Russell didn't speak, waiting for his next words.
"I heard that Xavi is coming to Catania, and the job in Messina...Godfather, I think I can do well."
Russell looked up at him, "You only want to work in Messina?"
"Yes, after your reminder, I dare not be greedy."
"Messina is not suitable for you, you should go to Palermo, where the council hall lacks a manager."
Hagen was taken aback. Originally, he only wanted to be the mayor of Messina, but he didn't expect to get a more important position!
"I am very grateful to you, Godfather."
"You deserve it. After the war, Rand will be transferred back from Italy, understand?"
"understand!"
After Rand came back, he was the top leader in the Sicilian military circle, and nearly half of the people in the real world were Corleone's people, and they occupied many important positions.
In the eyes of the people of Sicily, 1945 is known as the 'zero' year, because people finally started a new life.
Under the stable life of living and working in peace and contentment, it was Corleone's efforts. It was Corleone who helped tens of thousands of displaced people rebuild their homes, and provided them with enough food so that they would not starve to death.
People were very grateful and respected Corleone, and ordered many people to join them as Corleone's informants.
But there are always accidents, and people's hearts are unpredictable and difficult to figure out.
It can be seen from the incident of the Turks Solasso that he must have bought the Sicilian natives, so he was able to keep it airtight.
Even if Russell ordered Philisto to investigate, there was no reason to find out at first. Fortunately, Poch's naval fleet was patrolling near the Mediterranean Sea, otherwise there would be no clues at all.
Russell was not angry about this, cause and effect have already been doomed, when those Sicilians helped the Turks to kill the Sicilians, their fate was already doomed.
Yesterday, Mussolini and his lover Clara first arrived in Milan, and then prepared to flee to Switzerland.
At dawn on April 4, Mussolini was waiting for his 26 black-shirted troops in the hotel, but the sun was high and he didn't wait, so he had to find a way to escape.
Then Mussolini encountered a group of German troops that were evacuating. He and Clara mixed into the German army, trying to get away with the cover of the army.
But he was stopped by an Italian guerrilla that shouldn't have appeared, and asked to search the truck, and at the same time asked the Germans to keep the Italians in the truck.
And the German army has long forgotten Adolf's order to protect Mussolini at all costs...
Now they are bereaved dogs, and their masters are almost finished, so it is important to take care of their own lives.
After Mussolini was searched out, he was shot by the guerrillas, and Clara went with him.
Afterwards, Russell called Rand that night. He said that he was going to be promoted to the rank of major general and expressed his gratitude.
Less than two days after Mussolini's death, the Soviet army captured Berlin.
On the same day, the war madman Adolf saw the end of Germany in grief and despair, knowing that the situation was over, he committed suicide together with his new wife Eva.
Most of the people who followed Adolf chose jade pieces, among them was Goebbels...
On May 5, Germany surrendered unconditionally. The instrument of surrender was signed by General Jodl of the German Army and will take effect in the early morning of May 8. So far, the war in Europe has basically ended.
Britain, the United States, France and the Soviet Union finally had time to sit down and talk about how to divide up the victory cake, also to make up for the loss of the country.
evening,
Federica is clearing the dishes in the kitchen, and Sylvana and Marina are feeding the children. This scene is obviously just after dinner.
study,
Russell sat in a leather swivel chair and sipped the factory's new blood orange flavored cigarettes.
In front of him, Philisto was sitting on a low sofa, reporting the information he had obtained these days.
A few days ago, the cruise fleet in the Mediterranean sank three smuggling ships. The Sicilian Daily reported on this, briefly explaining what happened, and vigorously touting the achievements of Commander Pozzi.
Then he explained to the public that this group of gun-smuggling Turks was doing things that endangered Sicily under the banner of the Corleone family, and slandered Corleone's reputation...
After the public knew about it, they all cursed the Turks, and in just two days, all the Turks doing business in Sicily were beaten up. Some Turks were beaten three times in one day. When the Turks went to the police station When they filed a complaint, they were actually imprisoned...Leaving them with no reason at all.
Finally, when the natives who were doing business in Sicily knew what had happened, they also scolded the group of smugglers under the banner of Corleone for giving birth to children without pelvic bones, and wished them early gonorrhea!
Philisto said: "Two Sicilian natives who helped the Turks transported were the drivers of our transportation company. They were brothers. The family situation was very bad. Their parents were bedridden all year round, and their wife was seriously ill...I sent someone Sent his parents and wife to the hospital, and the child to school."
"Then the two brothers killed the remaining 15 participants with guns, and finally threw the guns and sank into the Mediterranean Sea."
Russell extinguished his cigarette and asked, "Is there any movement on the island?"
"No, they don't seem to know, they still go their own way... But in the early hours of this morning, our informants discovered that there were ships docking on the island, this time five freighters."
"These five cargo ships departed from the port of Tropea in Italy and sailed directly to the small island near Filicudi."
Russell said with a smile: "They bought Luca in Italy, but they didn't evacuate the island, very good."
"Godfather, how should we act?" Philisto asked.
Russell knocked on the table with one hand, and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on the situation on Dead Sea Island, to find out who they bought in Italy, and then go to Turkey to find out the areas and people who grow poppy."
"Inform Olijatu and Niveno that they will come to the town for a meeting the day after tomorrow."
"Ok!"
After Philisto left, Russell sat in the study doing planning and deployment.
Leaving Sicily and going to the United States is already a certainty. The most critical issue is how to arrange Sicily and accommodate Marlena and her three children.
Sicily belongs to Italy, and as major events in Italy take place, Sicily will also be affected a little, but it will not affect Corleone's control over it.
Because Rand has been promoted to major general, and his own son has recognized Russell as godfather, this relationship indicates that the two are already in the same boat.As for the serious customers of the Sicilian authorities, they will not be double-faced, because Corleone holds their secrets, and at the same time provides them with protection and various resources...
The question is, who will run the Sicilian business?
He has five right-hand men in his hands, Olijatu, Niveno, Nostin, Ankos, and Philisto.
Philisto must not stay, his duty is to protect Russell and his family, while holding the entire 'Legion'.
In addition to running business in Eastern European countries and buying land and mineral resources, Oriato is also in charge of oil, shipping, gas stations, and labor unions at the same time as Nostin.
Nivino is in charge of tobacco and alcohol, and assists Angkers in import and export trade. In addition, Angkers is also in charge of minerals, various processing plants, and land in countries in the western Mediterranean.
In this way, no one can preside over the work.
However, in 1899, the United States and Europe made transoceanic telephone calls, and telephone cables were laid at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, but it was expensive, and most people chose to send telegrams.
Russell had to remotely control Sicily by telegraph or international telephone.
Night falls.
Sylvana and Federica took their two children back to their respective rooms to rest, while the Corleones slept in the master bedroom with one and a half year old Vittorio.
As he grows older, Vittorio is not as noisy as he was when he was a child. He only needs to eat some complementary food before going to bed every night, and he can sleep until dawn.
Tonight, Malena put on a violet gauze dress, paired with suspender stockings of the same color, and stepped on a pair of black lacquered high-heeled shoes, showing the wonderful temperament of a married woman.
She stood at the end of the bed, stepped on the bed, and raised her hand to hook Russell. The electric signal from her eyes made Russell rush over.
"Want... to go to America?"
When Malena was kneeling, she trembled slightly when she heard the news.
Obviously shocked by the news.
"Yes, the war is coming to an end, and the United States is a good time to develop. We can't hide in Sicily for a lifetime, and we have to see the colorful world."
"I can go too, right?"
Russell lay on the bed interlocking fingers with her, looking up at her pretty face.
"Originally, I planned to take you and the children over after the United States stabilized..."
Marlena bit her red lips, leaned over and kissed his forehead.
"My dear, I will go wherever you go! No one or anything can separate us."
Russell smiled and said, "Of course! I have to take you and the child with me, otherwise how can I feel at ease?"
Marlena didn't know much about this, so it was reasonable for Russell to take the child to America with her.
The reason is the accident in Italy in 1946, which is the main reason.
Secondly, because Kaqi and Mansha are too young, Russell wants to watch them grow up. After going to the United States, he must not let people who don't know the details take care of the children, right?
They can only bring Sylvana and Federica with them, and then Philisto and Oliato will feel much more at ease.
"Are we going to immigrate?" Marlena asked.
Russell shook his head: "No immigration, we are always Sicilians, and going to America is just for better development."
"Where do the kids go to school?"
"They go to school in Sicily, they go to high school in England or France, and then they go to college in the United States."
