Anderson Leo doesn't like the atmosphere of the city of Lin now. Although he is old, his eyes are not spent, and he can still see many things clearly.
For example, on the way out from the Naval Club, he saw many people with obvious detective temperament walking on the street, especially near the Garden Palace. He also saw some special bureau agents who were injured one by one. People were carried into the carriage, and those who were injured should all be members of some secret departments of the government, including the navy.
He remembered a similar situation in the port city of Bata before. A large number of spies were enriched in the streets and alleys of the city. The secret fights and fights were completed in the alleys. The last body and wounded were carried on the carriage, It disappears forever, as if it never existed.
As a traditional naval soldier, he was very disgusted with this sneaky department, but he also knew that the kingdom could not be separated from this kind of department, so when the navy established the intelligence department alone, he did not object, but voted in favor , And even actively assisted the person who made him feel disgusted to persuade members of Congress.
Thinking of this, Anderson Lehman just had a little bad mood and became a lot more happy, because the person who made him hate or even hate was finally dead. This is definitely the most happy news for him in the past ten years.
When he heard the news a few days ago, he also felt that someone was joking with him, but after repeated confirmation, he realized that his greatest wish had come true in recent years. The illusory feeling that this dream came true made him still feel unreal even now. After all, a cunning guy like Hoover Hansen does not look like a person who will die from assassination.
In the past many years, he has thought about killing that guy countless times in his mind, from strangling with his hand, to poisoning and poisoning, and so on, but he finally resisted his hatred and let that The guy survived and continued to play for the Kingdom Navy, because he knew that this guy could help the Kingdom Navy develop alive.
Just because he hid his emotions well, this made even the closest adjutant around him, not knowing that he hated Hoover Hansen not only, but also hatred, because Hoover Han Sen’s massacre of the colony not only denied everything he had done as an admiral of the Paradise Harbor Fleet, but also caused his two illegitimate children and illegitimate daughters to die in the massacre.
Like the senior generals of the majority of the nobles of the British navy, Anderson Lehman also served as an adjutant in the colony of Mozambique in the early days, and then served as a general in the colonial navy. After accumulating a certain degree of merit, he became a certain Admiral of a small harbor fleet.
Among his peers, Anderson Lehman is definitely the best one. At the age of eighteen, he graduated from the Kingdom Naval Academy with the first place and directly became the chief deputy colonial governor. Later, with his outstanding performance in some affairs, he succeeded in gaining the appreciation of the colonial navy generals, recruited into the navy, and became a captain of the naval colony's first fleet.
Later, in several siege against pirates, he made outstanding achievements. At the age of 24, he took over the third colony fleet, and then served as the third fleet docked in the port city of Polyhia The Admiral and Mayor became the first naval general to perform both military and political duties.
After that, he not only built the Third Fleet into the colony's strongest fleet for several years, but even Polysia, which was originally a small city, was built by him into one of the largest harbour cities in the colony of the Kingdom of England.
Moreover, in the past few years, he has also published a large number of papers on naval construction and maritime strategy, published in the official residence of the Naval Academy, and many of the recommendations have been adopted by the navy. Hoover Hansen is very similar to him, and he is a kind of strategic, tactical and political all-rounder.
When Anderson Lehman was thirty-two, he was transferred back from the colony and was awarded the rank of lieutenant general based on his merits. He also served as the chief of staff of the First Fleet and became the youngest lieutenant general and the youngest. Navy's fifth character.
According to normal procedures, he should have continued to accumulate merits, and eventually became the youngest naval marshal in his forties.
The various riot uprisings that broke out in the colony in the second year became a big turning point in the life of Anderson Lehman. The Polyheia he ruled before became one of the cities where the riot originated and was replaced at the beginning of the riot Hoover Hansen of his post has been suppressed, and during this crackdown, the residents of Polyhia were more than half dead and wounded. He stayed in Polyhia and waited for a pair of illegitimate children after two years. And the mistress died in the hands of a riot army specially organized by Hoover Hansen.
At the time, when Anderson Lehman heard the news, the first thought was to avenge his children and impeach Hoover Hansen, but Hoover Hansen obviously played high and thought at the beginning Anderson Lehman will find his own trouble, so start with the strong first.
Before waiting for Anderson Lehman's impeachment documents to be handed over, there was a series of news that was not conducive to him and spread to the kingdom. These news were all spread by Hoover Hansen to find someone. There are a lot of specious rumors that Anderson Lehman served When the mayor and the admiral deliberately condoned the development of anti-colonial forces in the city, they even accepted bribes from these forces to facilitate their development. This was the current riot.
Although the navy did not believe it at all, the people were already boiling because of this incident, and Congress directly impeached Anderson Lehman for distrust. Although in the end, because of the navy’s guarantees, the so-called evidence is too much. Fake, impeachment failed to pass, but Anderson Lehman has been greatly affected, no longer suitable as chief of staff of the First Fleet, was eventually arranged by the Navy to teach at the Naval Academy.
On the contrary, Hoover Hansen, who stepped on Anderson Lehman in power, received the attention of the hawks in the navy during the suppression of the colonial uprising. He went all the way, and finally took up such a high position as the chief of the navy. The No. 3 person in the Navy, if not because he was not a noble, may be able to ascend to a higher position.
In contrast, although Anderson Lehman was affected in his career, his talents are still here. Even if he has entered the naval academy commonly known as nursing homes, he can still shine. In the first year of entering, he proposed a adjustment. The naval military system has not only helped thesis proposals, but also won the congressional award and became a college professor.
In the third year, when the dean of the Naval Academy retired, through so many years of accumulated relationship, Anderson Lehman was designated as the successor, and for more than 40 years, Anderson Lehman has been the dean of the Naval Academy. He has cultivated the nearly high-end generals of the Kingdom Navy, and has virtually expanded his influence.
A few years ago, the Chief Logistics Officer of the Navy retired because of physical discomfort, and Anderson Lehman obtained this civilian position that did not seem to have much status through his influence.
Although the number of senior generals in the navy is low, these people are in high positions and know how bad the relationship between Anderson Lehman and Hoover Hansen is. According to the principle, the two should not be placed in the same military system, but the logistics summary of Anderson Lehman does not seem to be an important institutional unit, nor can it affect the navy generals who hold military power, so those talents do not have It was blocked when Anderson Lehman initially wanted the job.
It was just unexpected that Anderson Lehman did not ask for this position casually. After taking up his position, he immediately carried out drastic reforms to the entire logistics department, which not only increased efficiency, but also made the logistics department’s accounts clear. And rely on this account to find a lot of navy worms.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to clean up the navy worms, Anderson timely thought that Congress and the Navy ran out a proposal for the reform of the Navy’s budget. In this reform proposal, he used a lot of facts to explain the shortcomings of the Navy’s budget statistics and the other side. And according to each side, some subtle reforms have been carried out. Through these reforms, not only can the Navy’s annual budget funding be reduced by more than 30%, but also the Navy’s overall command and transfer can be of great help.
This proposal is almost flawless. Once implemented, it can solve the navy’s current military and military problems. In addition, it can save the Congress government a considerable amount of expenditure every year.
So when the proposal was approved, Anderson Lehman, who knew the proposal best, became the main executor and manager of the proposal.
Later, through the reforms in the proposal, the navy’s original fleet of the same size and size was integrated, the control of the ocean was improved, and the military expenditure of the navy was also reduced a lot. There was even a year before the budget. The situation of running out.
For this reason, Anderson Lehman's influence on the navy and the sharp increase in Japan have become one of the core figures of the navy.
For Anderson Lehman’s students, it’s a happy thing for their dean to re-enter the Navy’s decision-making level, because everyone knows that as long as you are talented, no matter what your background, Anderson Lehman will spare no effort to put him Recommend to the right position, will not be subject to too much unnecessary suppression, but for others, Anderson Lehman appears to be sad, these people are Hoover Hansen and his descendants.
Although Hoover Hansen is considered to be a high weight in the navy, after all, he was not born a nobleman. Most of the navy generals who can be drawn by him are mainly civilian generals, and the development force is not very large. With the identity of the number three character, his power of influence is obviously much worse, and it is not even as useful as the honorary title of naval hero.
Although Anderson Lehman hated Hoover Hansen, he did not rush to directly combat Hoover Hansen, but pointed out some errors in the strategic plan submitted by Hoover Hansen in a very formal way. Publicly reject Hoover Hansen's various proposals.
If he rejected Hoover Hansen in a brutal way with his own identity, the senior navy once or twice might see him pass through his influence, but after a long time, he will definitely be on the side of Hoover Hansen. .
However, his rejection of Hoover Hansen’s proposal was all in the formal procedure, and the reasons for veto were extremely good. The loopholes found in the proposal were also very correct. If it was not found, but the proposal was carried out, perhaps in a short time. The overall structure of the navy will have no impact, but over time, it will cause the navy to fall into a split state.
In addition, hesitating Anderson Lehman's conscious guidance, the upper navy can feel that the loopholes in these proposals are a big trouble for them, but it can implicitly enhance Hoover Hansen's influence and power in the navy.
In this way, the trust in Hoover Hansen by the high-ranking navy who accounted for the vast majority of the aristocracy did not almost obey as before.
Hoover Hansen also felt this point. He was very clear to continue this way. He was afraid that he would be completely marginalized within the navy. So when he still has certain rights and influence, through lobbying and exchange of interests, let The general political plan he submitted was passed, and he also received naval support, becoming the first high-ranking navy general to officially enter the political arena.
Hoover Hansen's method is indeed useful. Although Anderson Lehman's influence in the Navy is very large, but his influence in politics is much smaller. If there is no accident, when Hoover Hansen begins to run for the next legislator with the support of the Navy, Anderson Lehman's suppression of him will no longer exist. He can also use the dual status of the members of the House of Commons and the retired general of the Navy. To gradually expand its power in both military and political circles.
Hoover Hansen's plan Anderson Lehman can clearly see clearly, but he can't do anything, because the navy senior has already had a profound conversation with him, if he does something at this time~ EbookFREE.me~ Then he may be difficult to obtain high-level support from the navy in the future.
The high-ranking navy who knows their hatred well forcibly arranged a long vacation for Anderson Lehman to prevent him from being able to make trouble for Hoover Hansen when he campaigned, so he can only have this time Stay in the navy club for a long time.
Although Anderson Lehman was tied to his hands and feet by high-ranking navy officers, he did not do anything because he knew that Hoover Hansen would want to retaliate against Hu by normal means. Fo Hansen is almost impossible, unless he violates his own rules of life by other means.
So, while on vacation, Anderson Lehman also secretly did something, such as deliberately leaking some naval generals’ political plans, which attracted the attention of Congress and the royal family, and he also collected some useful information, ready to take the opportunity When appropriate, the secret is given to Congress.
With these data, he may not be able to convict Hoover Hansen of some situations, but at least he can remove the skin of the navy hero from his body and make him lose the greatest protection.
Unexpectedly, before waiting for his shot, he received the death of Hoover Hansen, which surprised him and felt inexplicable emptiness.
