　　"General!" Someone knocked outside the door, then pushed the door and entered, "You looking for me?" "

　　Holding the document in his hand, Leon glanced up at Walter Wäfer who was walking in, smiled and nodded.

　　Waver turned around and closed the door, walked to Leon's desk, glanced at the other person at the desk suspiciously, and then stood up straight.

　　The general also called others? It doesn't seem like a bad thing. Seeing that there were others, Waver's nervous mood relaxed a lot.

　　"First of all, let's introduce the two of you to get to know each other." Leon put down the document in his hand, pointed to the one who came first, and said, "First of all, this is the President of Lufthansa, Mr. Erhard Milch. And this is Lieutenant Colonel Walter Wäfer from the War Department. Leon pointed to Weifel again.

　　Milch and Waver smiled and shook hands after the introduction in Lyon.

　　"The purpose of my coming to the two of you today, Mr. Milch already knows." Leon said and bought a pass, "As for Lieutenant Colonel Waver, it's better for you to guess Mr. Lieutenant Colonel." "

　　Waver frowned when he heard this, thought carefully for a while, and said: "I really can't guess the specific content, but combined with Mr. Milch's identity and the recently revised Portsmouth Peace Treaty, I think it is mostly a matter of the Air Force. "

　　"Smart!" Leon applauded, "Just for the air force under reconstruction." I have come to you to make you commander-in-chief of the Air Force and chief of the general staff of the Air Force, respectively. "

　　"This..." Waver was taken aback, "how can this be? General, I'm just an army combat staff officer, I don't even know how to fly an airplane! "

　　"It doesn't matter if you can't fly the plane, who said that the chief of staff of the Air Force must fly the plane back?" Leon comforted, "I know you've always been in charge of the Army and have never touched an airplane, but that doesn't stop you from being a good Air Force chief of staff."

　　"But..." Waver was about to say something, but Milch on the side interrupted him.

　　"Trust the General, I think when the General approached me to make me president of Lufthansa, I was just as apprehensive as you, afraid that I would not be able to do well. But now you see, how good is Lufthansa? "

　　"Okay, okay." Waver nodded and agreed to the "beauty difference".

　　The reason why Leon asked a person who had never been exposed to airplanes to become the chief of the Air Force General Staff was because he had heard the name Walter Wfefer in many places in his previous life, and with it, there was always the name "omnipotence".

　　The historical Walter Wäffer, born in Posen in 1887, enlisted in the army in 1905 as a midshipman, served on the Western Front in World War I, and was subsequently appointed as his aide-de-camp by Ludendorff for his talent.

　　After the defeat of World War I, he remained in the army and served as a training staff officer within the war department.

　　He was promoted twice , but remained an officer in the Army. It was not until 1933 that he was promoted to colonel by Hitler and transferred to the Air Force as Chief of the Air Force's General Staff.

　　He had never been exposed to flying before joining the Air Force, and he learned to fly only after he joined the Air Force in 1933.

　　Although Waver learned to fly only after entering the Air Force in 1933, he became the only person who was praised by all sides of the Air Force General Staff with his excellent organizational skills and interpersonal communication skills.

　　More importantly, he was the only early leader who advocated the development of the strategic air force and was very strategic.

　　So when Leon thought about the post of Chief of the Air Force, he was the first thing that came to mind.

　　"Well, from now on, you two will be the first commander-in-chief and chief of the general staff of the Air Force, respectively." Leon said with satisfaction, "I hope you can work hard to cooperate in your future work and contribute to the nascent Luftwaffe!" "

　　"Of course." Both Milch and Waver nodded in response.

　　"By the way, where is our air base? I have to get acquainted with the boys in the Air Force. Waver asked Leon.

　　"I'm afraid you can only see a group of ground crew and cleaning aunts when you go to the Air Force headquarters now." Leon joked, "The first pilots we selected were trained in the Soviet Union, but the first fighters of the Air Force were parked at the base, so if you are interested, you can go and see for yourself." "

　　"Logisticians and equipment are also very important." Waver laughed, "General, didn't you always teach us that the future war is about fighting logistics and equipment?" "

　　"Haha, yes." Leon laughed, "Okay, I'll let someone take you to the base, and you can get acquainted with your old friends in the future." "

　　"Then I'll go first, General." Waver waved his hand at Leon, while also saying to his future partner, "Mr. Milchy partner, we'll see you later!" "

　　"Goodbye!" Milch smiled and said goodbye to him.

　　Led by an officer, Milch left the gates of the war department and drove in a car towards the German airbase in Berlin, Germany.

　　Sitting in the car, Waver still felt a little disillusioned with his sudden appearance as chief of the Air Force General Staff, and he shook his head with a smile, lamenting the impermanence of the world.

　　It wasn't long before the car stopped in front of a huge iron gate, and the officer got out of the car and whispered to the guards on duty.

　　Inside the car, Waver looked curiously out of the window, and the first thing he saw was a flat concrete runway and dozens of anti-aircraft guns of different sizes pointing diagonally to the sky next to the runway, then a dozen huge factory-like closed iron sheds, and finally a tower building (tower) still under construction in the distance.

　　Soon, the officer returned to the car, while the guards outside opened the iron door while giving the car a standard military salute.

　　Not long after the car drove into the base, it stopped again.

　　"Sir, I can only send you here, there are secrets ahead, I can't go any further, you can only go by yourself." The officer said apologetically.

　　"It's okay, thank you for sending me over." Waver replied, then he pushed open the door, got out of the car and walked forward.

　　Crossing the runway, Waver came to where the iron shed was. He walked to a huge iron shed, pushed open a small door, and walked inside.

　　As soon as he walked into the iron shed, he was fascinated by what he saw - it was six fighter jets parked side by side!

　　He unconsciously stepped forward, stroked the long metal wings, and said in his mouth: "Oh, you are so beautiful!" "

　　"It's beautiful." A voice came from behind him.

　　Waver hurriedly turned around and looked at the comer.
