Compromise and cooperation

　　"Haha, dear Major General Leon, we succeeded!" These were the first words of the Hindenburg Field Marshal after seeing Lyon, and then a warm hug.

　　"Marshal, I promised you that I have done it. But I think Mr. Albert is worthy of the presidency, and we should give him a beautiful state funeral. Leon asked with a frown, this was the last thing he could do for Albert.

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

　　Leon shook his head when he heard this and insisted: "He is a good president, and we should give him a proper funeral as German citizens." "

　　"Well, he did a great job, I promise you." Hindenburg saw that Leon insisted so much, and he was not hindering, after all, it was irrelevant, and it would not be good for everyone if he fell out with Leon because of this.

　　"Also, Mr. Marshal, regarding the agreement I have submitted, I hope that you will do the work of Congress as soon as possible, and we will have to take advantage of the current depression of the Soviet economy to finalize this treaty with them." Leon reminded.

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

　　Leon saw that Hindenburg was so excited, and his own affairs had been explained, so he said hello to Hindenburg and left his residence.

　　Watching Leon leave, Hindenburg's secretary said to Hindenburg: "Marshal, no, Mr. President, Leon can take out Albert with the army now, don't you worry 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 as him." If he really wanted to deal with me, the Wehrmacht would not help him. What can he rely on without the Wehrmacht? Those cops? Haha, the police are police after all, and they can't deal with the army! "

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

　　Strauss's residence was not far from his house in Hindenburg, and Leon waved his hand when he got out of the car, signaling the guards not to follow, and it would seem rude to meet with a group of guards in this kind of visit.

　　Strauss's house was indeed brightly lit, Leon knocked on the door, 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'll find Lieutenant General Strauss, and you can just tell him that Leon is visiting." "

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

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

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

　　"Sophia, I came to General Strauss, I'm really sorry to bother so late." Lyon is also very happy, and it is obvious that he will not receive a good face when he meets Lieutenant General Strauss, but it is much better to have Sophia around.

　　"Don't bother, don't bother, we haven't slept, and I don't know why Dad pulled us to sleep so late." Sophia said briskly, and then pulled Leon into the house, shouting: "Dad! Father! Leon is coming for you. "

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

　　Sophia was a little dissatisfied with her dad not coming out to greet the guests, wrinkled her cute nose, and then pulled Leon towards the study on the second floor.

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

　　"I wonder why General Leon is visiting 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 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, and Strauss immediately understood and said to Sophia: "Daughter, you go out first, dad has important things to talk to Leon." "

　　Sophia looked disappointed, but obediently walked out of the room, she was a smart girl and knew that she should not be present on such occasions.

　　Seeing Sophia walk out, Leon said unhurriedly: "You also know that a considerable number of officers in the Wehrmacht belong to conservatives, 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'm going to purge them and remove them from command positions and put them in these positions. "

　　Lieutenant General Strauss thought for a moment and said, "With your current control over 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 high-ranking officers are conservatives, and no one of my young strong faction has the qualifications to serve as their commander, so I would like to invite you to take up the position. "

　　"Regrouping? How to reorganize? Strauss was a little puzzled.

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

　　"You want me to be this division commander?" Strauss was a little incredulous, now the division commander, when the formation of the army group is restored in the future, then he will be the supreme commander of the group army, and this army group will be planned 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".

　　"Boom!" The door was slammed open, and Sophia shouted angrily at Strauss, "Dad! How are you like this? Leon believes that you made you this division commander, and you don't thank him for threatening to kill him! If you want to kill him, kill me first!" After speaking, she stared at her father.

　　Strauss was stunned, I just reminded him, how can I be like a heinous person? Then suddenly realized, took a deep look at Leon, and thought to myself, no wonder you are not afraid that I will break you, it turns out that your kid has long rebelled against my daughter.

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

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

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

　　Sophia doubted the letter and set her eyes on Leon, and as soon as Leon wanted to speak, he felt the murderous gaze cast by Strauss, and couldn't help but break out in 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 have overreacted, and couldn't help but blush with shame and hurried back to her room.

　　Strauss shook his head helplessly and complained to Leon: "Really, this girl has never said that about me since I was a child, and the longer it grows, the more it goes out." "

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

　　Strauss saw that Leon also agreed with him, and smiled with satisfaction.

　　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 take my leave first, about the matter of serving as the commander of the 1st Infantry Division, I will ask people to send the letter of appointment to your home tomorrow, and we will settle this matter." Then he ran out the door as if afraid that Strauss would react.

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

　　Strauss was an old fox after all, and no matter how cunning Leon's young fox was, he still considered less thoughtfully than the old man in some respects.

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

　　Hey, the good daughter was abducted and ran away like that.
