"Haha, dear Major General Lyon, we succeeded!" These were the first words of Marshal Hindenburg after meeting Lyon, followed by a warm hug.

"Marshal, what I promised you has been done. But I think Mr. Albert is worthy of the presidency, and we should give him a glorious state funeral. Leon frowned and pleaded, it was the last thing he could do for Albert.

"Major General Lyon, he is our enemy! Do you think that if you do this, others will not know that you killed him? Will his family forgive you for this? "Hindenburg was unhappy with the request made by Lyon, and in his opinion, the enemy is the enemy, and there is no need to say much if it fails.

Hearing this, Leon shook his head and insisted: "He is an excellent president, and we should give him a well-deserved funeral as German citizens." ”

"Well, he did a great job, I promise you." Hindenburg saw that Leon was so insistent, and he didn't stop it, after all, it didn't matter, and it wouldn't be good for everyone if he fell out with Leon because of this.

"And, Mr. Marshal, with regard to the agreement I have submitted, I hope that you will get the work done with Congress as soon as possible, and that we will have to finalize this treaty with them at the height of the Soviet economy." Leon reminded.

"No problem, when I become president tomorrow, these are minor problems." Hindenburg was very happy at this time, and casually agreed.

Seeing that Hindenburg was so excited, and that he had already explained his business, Leon said hello to Hindenburg and left his residence.

Seeing Leon leave, Hindenburg's secretary said to Hindenburg: "Marshal, no, Mr. President, Leon can kill Albert with the army now, aren't you worried that he will kill you in the future?" ”

Hindenburg slowly put away the smile on his face and said coldly: "He doesn't need to deal with me, I am on the same front with him." If he really wants to deal with me, the Wehrmacht will not help him. Without the Wehrmacht, what could he rely on? Those few cops? Haha, the police are policemen after all, and they can't deal with the army! ”

On the other hand, Leon left the Hindenburg place and did not go home, but went to Strauss's residence, although it was early in the morning, but Leon knew that such a big thing had happened, and Lieutenant General Strauss would definitely not be able to sleep tonight.

Strauss's lodgings were not far from Hindenburg's house, and Leon got out of the car and waved his hand to signal the guards not to come with him, as such a visitive meeting would seem rude with a group of guards.

Strauss's house was really brightly lit, Leon knocked on the door, and a middle-aged woman dressed as a maid opened the door, looked at Leon strangely, and asked, "Hello, who are you looking for?" ”

Leon smiled politely and said, "Hello, I'm looking for Lieutenant General Strauss, you can just tell him that Leon is coming to visit." ”

The maid answered, and was about to go to Strauss, when a young girl ran down the stairs and rushed to the door, it was Sophia.

"Hi Leon! What are you doing here? Sophia looked happy to see Leon.

The maid on the side was surprised, and became more curious about Leon, her own young lady grew up watching her, and she had never seen her so happy, who is this man?

"Sophia, I'm coming to General Strauss, I'm sorry to bother me so late." Leon was also very happy, and it was obvious that he would not receive a good face when he met Lieutenant General Strauss, but it would be much better to have Sophia there.

"Don't bother, don't bother, we didn't sleep, and I don't know why Dad dragged us so late without sleeping." Sophia said briskly, then ran into the house with Leon in her arms, shouting, "Daddy! Father! Leon is coming for you. ”

"Let him come to the study." Strauss's voice came from the second floor.

Sophia was a little unhappy that her father didn't come out to greet the guests, wrinkled her cute nose, and then pulled Leon to run to the study on the second floor.

Strauss was sitting in the study at this time thinking about something, and couldn't help frowning when he saw his daughter holding Leon's hand, Sophia hurriedly let go of Leon's hand and stuck out her tongue.

"I wonder why General Lyon is here so late?" Strauss didn't look at Leon and asked lightly.

"You must already know what happened today, I came here to inform you, Berlin has been a little unpeaceful recently, please pay attention to your safety." Leon didn't care about Strauss's attitude and said with a smile.

"I see, is there anything else?" Lieutenant General Strauss said.

Leon glanced at Sophia beside him with an embarrassed face, Strauss immediately understood, and said to Sophia: "Daughter, you go out first, Dad has something important to talk to Leon." ”

Sophia looked disappointed, but obediently walked out of the room, she was a smart girl and knew that she shouldn't be there on such an occasion.

Seeing Sophia walk out, Leon said unhurriedly: "You also know that a considerable number of officers in the Wehrmacht belong to the conservative faction, advocating compromise with Britain and France, and being a defeated country in peace. This is in serious conflict with my philosophy, and their biggest supporter, Albert, is dead tonight, so I intend to purge them and move them out of command positions to be filled by the Young Zhuang faction. ”

Lieutenant General Strauss thought for a moment and said, "With your current control of the Wehrmacht, it is not difficult to do this, right?" ”

"Of course, this is not the main problem, the trouble is that I want to transfer three infantry regiments from Frankfurt to Berlin for reorganization." Leon paused and continued, "But their original senior officers were all conservatives, and none of my young men were qualified to be their commanders, so I would like to ask you to take the position. ”

"Consolidation? How to reorganize? Strauss was a little confused.

"I want to restore the establishment of army groups, reorganize these three infantry regiments into the 1st Infantry Division of the Wehrmacht, and then slowly expand into army groups." Leon explained.

"You want me to be the commander of this division?" Strauss was a little incredulous, now he was the division commander, and when the army group was restored in the future, he would be the supreme commander of the army group, and this army group would plan to include more than half of the German army on paper!

"That's right, that's what you think." Leon seemed to understand the shock in Strauss's eyes.

"Aren't you afraid that I will kill you when I take power?" Strauss reminded "kindly".

"Bang!" The door was slammed open, and Sophia shouted to Strauss in a huff, "Daddy! How do you do that? Leon believes in you to make you the commander of this division, and you don't thank him and threatens to kill him! If you want to kill him, kill me first! After saying that, she stared at her father.

Strauss was stunned, I just reminded him, how did I do it like I was so heinous? Then it suddenly dawned on me, and I looked at me deeply, thinking that this is the case, no wonder you are not afraid that I will break you, it turns out that your kid has already rebelled against my daughter!

Leon also looked baffled, the reason why he was not afraid was not because of Sophia, but because the junior officers were all selected by the Gestapo and completely supported him, even if Strauss wanted to rebel, he could not mobilize troops without the support of the junior officers.

At this time, Leon felt a meaningful glance from Strauss, and always felt that Mr. Lieutenant General seemed to have misunderstood something......

"Ahem, daughter, Dad just reminded Leon not to be so gullible, and didn't say anything about him." Strauss persuaded him with good words, and at the same time couldn't help but feel aggrieved in his heart, no mistake, your father and I are still Lyon's step down, why don't you pity me? It's really an outgoing daughter.

Sophia was suspicious and set her eyes on Leon, and as soon as Leon wanted to speak, he felt the murderous eyes cast by Strauss, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat on his forehead, and sneered: "Sophia, you misunderstood, the general really just reminded me, there is no threat." ”

Sophia breathed a sigh of relief, and then suddenly felt that she seemed to be overreacting, and couldn't help blushing, and hurriedly ran back to her room.

Strauss shook his head helplessly and complained to Leon: "Really, this girl hasn't said this about me since she was a child, and she really grows more and more." ”

Leon also touched his chin and nodded, as if he agreed with what Strauss said.

Strauss smiled with satisfaction when he saw that Leon also agreed with him.

Leon saw that Strauss's rhythm had been disrupted, and took the opportunity to say: "Since the general still has family affairs, then I will leave first, and regarding the matter of being the commander of the First Infantry Division, I will have the letter of appointment sent to your house tomorrow, and we will settle this matter." Then, as if he was afraid that Strauss would react, he ran out of the door as fast as he could.

Strauss watched Leon get into the car by the window, and slowly walked back to the sofa and sat down, the expression just now was just pretended by him, the two had differences and conflicts, and needed a step for the two of them to go down, and the intrusion to Sophia just gave him a step.

Strauss was an old fox after all, and no matter how cunning the young fox was Leon, he was still not as thoughtful as the old man in some aspects.

Although Strauss agreed to cooperate with Leon, the more he thought about it at the moment, the more angry he became, the relationship between Sophia and Leon may not be very deep, but if Leon also has a good impression of his daughter, his daughter will probably be eaten to death.

Hey, the good daughter was abducted like this?
