Time flies, and three months have passed since Lyon's last visit to the two members of the Directorate of Arms Supervision.

During this period of time, the British and French governments made clear their policy of winning over Germany to their side, and the undercurrent within the Military Supervision Bureau also became surging.

The Wehrmacht was also growing steadily, and Lyon used his rights to find Heinz Wilhelm Guderian and Erwin Rommel, the three future generals who would have been in the corner for several years.

These two people were originally full of interest and yearning for Germany's secret armored forces, especially Guderian, who worked in the Army Transportation Department, even expressed and highly praised Lyon in public several times: "Lieutenant Colonel Lyon in the War Department is one of the very few geniuses in the German army now" and "Lieutenant Colonel Lyon is my idol, I will definitely have a drink with him if I have the opportunity in the future" and so on.

Of course, Guderian did not directly mention the secret armored forces of the Wehrmacht, otherwise even if the Anglo-French relations were flawed now, the two countries would definitely sanction Germany if they tried to win over Germany.

That's right, the German army now has a secret armored unit, not a "tractor unit", after Lyon had provoked the relationship between the two members of the Military Supervision Bureau, he had already informed Polscher to immediately design a light tank weighing about 5 tons, equipped with two 7.92mm light machine guns, and traveling more than 140 kilometers for the German army.

Due to the simplicity of the requirements put forward by the Wehrmacht, the design and construction of the first prototype was completed and built in just over a month. After receiving the news that the tank had been designed and the first prototype had been successfully built, Lyon took Lieutenant General Strauss, Manstein and others to the Porsche car manufacturing company in Stuttgart to see the prototype.

I have to say that Porscher is worthy of being a master of automobile design, he understands the current situation of the German Wehrmacht, so he did not use heavy armor, but paid attention to the mobility of the tank, close to 40 kilometers per hour speed far beyond the same period including the French Renault FT17 tank and the British "Greyhound Race" tank, although the firepower only has 2 7.92mm light machine guns The No. 1 tank is not as good as the Renault and Racing Dog with 37mm guns, but it is more in line with the current strategic requirements of the German army.

After reading this, Lieutenant General Strauss was very satisfied, and immediately informed Field Marshal Hindenburg, who had agreed to the secret armament of the German army with new weapons, and immediately ordered 50 tanks from the Porsche automobile manufacturing company after receiving a clear answer.

Two months later, the Porsche Motor Manufacturing Company secretly delivered the first batch of 20 tanks to the military under the name of "agricultural light tractors", and Lyon, who was in charge of the matter, handed over the first batch of tanks to Manstein to form the 1st Tank Regiment of the Wehrmacht. And the 30 tanks that have not yet been delivered, Lyon intends to give 20 of them to Guderian and the other 10 to Rommel to form the 2nd and 3rd Tank Regiments, respectively.

It is worth pondering for others that after the formation of the 1st Tank Regiment of the Wehrmacht, Lyon did not put him in Berlin, but sent him to Munich, 588 kilometers from Berlin.

In the face of Lieutenant General Strauss's question, Lyon said that he wanted to avoid the Arms Supervision Bureau, but in fact, only he knew the reason - his "ally" Hitler was increasingly active in Munich, and he had to show his strength there, hoping to restrain Hitler's terrible fascism.

The time soon came to the end of March, and Lyon, who was working on the latest training plan for the Wehrmacht in the War Department, welcomed a beautiful woman.

After she knocked on the door and walked into Leon's office, she smiled sweetly at Leon: "Are you Mr. Leon Andrés, please?" Leon looked at the beautiful woman in front of him suspiciously, and said, "Yes, I'm Leon, may I ask who you are?" ”

The beautiful woman struck a bewitching pose and half-sat on Lyon's desk: "It doesn't matter who I am, do you think I'm beautiful?" ”

Leon frowned, he has been intriguing in the military and political circles for so long, he is no longer the little white who first came to this world, Leon understands that this woman must not have a good heart behind her, and in the face of this kind of thing, the best way to deal with it is to wipe the cheap food that is sent, and then return the hook to the opponent.

So Leon smiled evilly, stood up and stroked the face of the beauty, leaned into her ear and said, "Of course it's beautiful, what? Want to have something happen to me? The girl blushed and stood up.

Leon saw that he was almost taking advantage of it, so he turned cold, took out his pistol and pointed it at the girl's forehead, and said lightly: "Say, who are you?" Who sent you? Sophia hurriedly raised her hand, her face turned pale with fright: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Colonel Leon, I shouldn't have made fun of you." I am Sophia Strauss, and the general has sent me to be your secretary and translator. ”

Hearing this, Leon put away his pistol and said in surprise: "Colonel?!" ”

Seeing Leon put away his pistol, Sophia couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said dissatisfiedly: "Yes, this is your promotion order." As he spoke, he handed Lyons a document stating that Wehrmacht-Lieutenant Colonel Leon Andrés had been promoted to Colonel of the Wehrmacht because of his recent performance in certain areas.

Leon looked at the promotion order in his hand, and thought to himself: He has only been promoted for half a year since his last promotion, and he has been promoted again, obviously Lieutenant General Strauss has greatly improved his military status, and this Sophia sent in front of him obviously has two aspects: one is that his performance is too outstanding, which has aroused the vigilance of Lieutenant General Strauss, and Sophia is sent to his side to monitor himself. The second is that in order to further consolidate the relationship between the two, Lieutenant General Strauss took Sophia as a reward to win him over.

Leon sighed, he finally began to arouse the alarm of the big guys, especially the last time Lyon put Manstein's Wehrmacht First Armored Regiment in Munich and Manstein completely obeyed his orders, which gave others the impression that this unit did not belong to Germany but to Lyon himself.

In particular, the fact that the future Gudeli Second Armored Regiment and Rommel's Third Panzer Regiment would inevitably obey Lyon's orders made the German top brass even more vigilant, and it was a pity that Germany did not have such excellent armored commanders as those three at this stage, and that it still had to rely on Lyon to rearm the Wehrmacht.

However, there are also advantages, that is, he was promoted to colonel. Leon suddenly remembered that Sophia had just mentioned a job in addition to being his secretary, translator.
