Shadow Spy

Chapter 349 Leahy and Stuart

In the following time, Li Junhao followed Ayers to participate in several staff meetings in the White House, and President Roosevelt basically participated.

During the meeting, Li Junhao made several reports and elaborated them. Most of the reports were affirmed by everyone, but there were some differences on the time of Germany's invasion of the Soviet Union.

At this time, the Joint Chiefs of Staff had not yet been established. Similar roles were played by the Coordinating Conference of Military Representatives and Presidential Military Advisers, whose leader was Admiral William Daniel Leahy, who was deeply trusted by Roosevelt. After analysis of the intelligence currently obtained by the Naval Intelligence Bureau, it is believed that the German attack time will be around May 5th, which is more than a month different from the late June analyzed by Li Junhao.

Li Junhao was not in a hurry. He had great respect for this 65-year-old Navy veteran who had just been transferred back from the post of Governor of Puerto Rico and served for the second time. Of course, this did not mean that he agreed with his views, so he said: "Admiral Leahy , the relevant information you received is undoubtedly correct, but the analysts made a small omission in it, and that is the current battle between Italy and Greece!"

Seeing that everyone here still didn't understand, he could only explain in detail: "Everyone can pay attention to the European battlefield. Starting from Italy's invasion of Greece in late October last year, the Italy-Greece war has been going on for five months... What is the combat effectiveness of the Italian army? Needless to say, it goes without saying, but judging from the situation last month when the Italian army reorganized reinforcements to launch a counterattack, it is obvious that it cannot win this war!
"In this case, Italy can only take the last step - to ask Germany for help!

"I agree with what General Leahy said just now. The German army is indeed preparing to attack the Soviet Union in May. Because of the season and weather, they want to resolve the German-Soviet war before the cold winter comes; but now the problem has arisen. If What will happen if Italy asks Germany for help this month or next?"

After hearing his words, everyone in the audience, including President Roosevelt and Admiral Leahy, began to think...

After a long while, General Leahy sighed and said: "Assistant Panson said it right! Considering the war in Europe, Italy will definitely ask Germany for help in the near future, and Germany must not ignore it, but if it If we send troops to help Italy attack Greece, will the battle be able to end in one to two months?" He said the last sentence while looking at Li Junhao.

Li Junhao nodded and said: "Mr. General, think about Poland and France. There is no suspense about the fall of Greece in one month."

Hearing this, everyone was silent. The performance of the German army and European countries had proved a lot of things before. Now no one dares to underestimate the offensive capabilities of the German army.

Admiral Leahy nodded, acknowledging this statement.Of course, the actual situation has yet to be verified, but as an experienced veteran, he admitted that what the young assistant Pan Sen said made sense.What makes Li Junhao more happy is that after this meeting, instead of being angry, General Leahy admired him very much. Not only did he praise him many times in front of the president and colleagues, but he also took the initiative to invite him to participate in the work of the Military Advisory Office. He was also given the title of Assistant Military Advisor.

Li Junhao also thought that this old man was very good. Not only did he bring tea to ask for military knowledge, but he also invited him to taste Chinese delicacies. It didn't take long for him to become a lifelong friend. The level of familiarity with him was even greater than that of another old man Ayres. A little jealous!
Although Ayers showed a taste for food a few times, he was actually very happy. Being friends with a military boss like General Leahy was extremely beneficial to Ogg. The taste he showed was It was just for fun, and Lai Xi, who was also an old man, liked this very much, so he treated Li Junhao better!
At first, Li Junhao was a little surprised by the job title of General Leahy. After thinking hard for a long time, he accidentally remembered that this military representative and military adviser was the predecessor of the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff... Oh, By the way, the Joint Chiefs of Staff was established by President Roosevelt after the outbreak of the Pacific War. The first convener was Admiral Leahy, who later became the Navy's first five-star general.
-
Admiral Leahy's ability and connections are not fake. His admiration for Li Junhao is true, but he still did some research in private and learned a lot...

On March 3, the two of them finished a feast of fresh foie gras at a restaurant in the city. Before leaving, General Leahy handed Li Junhao a file bag and said: "Little Ogg, I believe in the contents of this." You will be interested...you don’t need to thank me, just know it yourself!”

Li Junhao was a little puzzled. He took the file bag, sent Lai Xi to the car, and asked the driver and guards to be careful before getting into his own car and going home.
-
After washing up, Li Junhao opened the file bag and began to read the documents inside. It turned out to be about the Stuart family!
According to information collected by the United States, the original British King Charles II married the Portuguese princess Catherine after he was officially crowned King of England and Ireland in 1681. The two had no children; but what few people know is that before Charles II When he was in exile in Spain, he had a short marriage of two years with a Chinese woman named Li, and left a son named Longde Lee. This is the origin of the Longde Lee Stuart family. .

Nothing can be kept secret for a long time. When Charles II died, some members of the House of Lords asked to take Longde Lee back to the throne. However, most of the members opposed it because he was half Chinese. Only then did Charles II's younger brother James II ascends the throne.

In 1712, Ronde Lee Stuart died of illness in Spain and never returned to England until his death.

In 1714, George I of the Hanoverian Dynasty came to the throne and secretly asked the Spanish royal family to hand over Ronde Lee's children. The Stuart descendants were forced to flee to North America and relied on the protection of many European royal powers to settle down and develop in North America.

With the interest of the European Industrial Revolution, the king of the British Windsor dynasty lost most of his power and became more symbolic. There was no need to continue to pursue the legacy of the previous dynasty.

Queen Victoria even invited the descendants of Ronde Lee Stuart to return to the UK in 1890. Although they were rejected, she still followed royal tradition and granted the title to the head of the Stuart family in North America at that time. Tres Lee is a hereditary Stuart Duke and is included in the European royal family pedigree.

After reading the information, Li Junhao felt a little confused. Could it be that he was a descendant of the Duke of Stuart?
