Reagan was also a man who acted swiftly and resolutely. Now that he had made a decision, he had to implement it immediately to avoid long nights and nightmares. So he asked his secretary to inform General Turner to meet him in the office at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.

Admiral Turner has just returned home and is quite satisfied with today's performance. It seems that he has the talent to become a star, at least he is not so resistant to being on TV.

Another point that is also very important is that his appearance fee is 1 million US dollars; this is a sky-high price. I guess ABC is also looking at what others are doing. Admiral Turner's resume is too legendary and wonderful. The most important thing is what he says.

Representing authority, it seems that there is really nothing to do in the navy's sinecure.

I just don’t know what the White House will think about, and I can’t afford to take that much money at the moment.

While General Turner was thinking wildly, the White House called and asked him to report to the White House before ten o'clock tomorrow morning. President Reagan would receive him on time at ten o'clock.

Although I don’t know what Reagan means, after all, he is also the current president of the United States. I still have to give him face, and I don’t dare not to give it.

The most depressing person at this time was General Bernard Rogers. Reagan had promised that he would continue to serve as Commander-in-Chief of NATO's European Allied Forces. Suddenly he received a call from Reagan himself; he said that he was needed for more important work.

, let him return home to report on his duties. This is undoubtedly an excuse. There is no position more important than the position of Commander-in-Chief of NATO's European Allied Forces.

Bernard William Rogers is also a ruthless man. He graduated from the Army Academy at West Point, the Command and General Staff College, and the Army Academy from 1943 to 1960. He was appointed second lieutenant in 1943 and assistant to the dean of the Military Academy in 1945.

From 1946 to 1947, he served as the aide-de-camp to the Supreme Commander in Austria. In 1952, he served as the United Nations Security Councilor in Korea.

Battalion Commander, served as the Executive Officer of the Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Army in the Far East from 1953 to 1954, Assistant Chief of Staff of the Army from 1956 to 1959, Military Assistant to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and Chief of Staff in 1961. In 1966, he served as Deputy Chief of Staff of the 1st Infantry Division of the U.S. Army in South Vietnam.

Division commander, he was appointed as the dean of the Military Academy in 1967. In 1969, he was appointed as the commander of the Fifth Infantry Division.

In 1974, he was appointed Commander of Army Forces Command and promoted to Army General. In 1976, he was appointed Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army. In 1979, he was appointed Supreme Commander of Allied Forces in Europe.

This general, who was dismissed due to the easing of relations between the United States and the Soviet Union and who strongly opposed the signing of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, did not know how he would feel if he returned home early because of General Turner.

Although he was reluctant, the president was the supreme commander. Even though Bernard Rogers had high qualifications and prestige, he did not dare to disobey the orders of the White House.

Reagan took a big risk by letting Admiral Turner serve as Commander-in-Chief of NATO's European Allied Forces. During the Cold War, most of the people who held this position were West Point graduates; Admiral Turner was from the Navy, so he was bound to encounter opposition and ostracism.

However, these can only be left to General Turner to handle. If he can't even do this little thing well, then his job as CIA director will be in vain.

At ten o'clock the next morning, General Turner appeared in the President's Office of the White House in full military uniform.

Seeing Admiral Turner's energy, Reagan believed that he had made the right choice. Although they belonged to different parties, we were all Americans. As long as our core interests were the same, we couldn't care about anything else at this time.

After seeing Reagan, General Turner gave him a standard military salute. Although Reagan was an actor before, he is now the president of the United States and the supreme commander of the three armed forces, so he must show him enough respect. No one will do it because of this

If you do something trivial to give the other party an excuse, it will be too much of a loss.

Reagan said with a smile: "Hello, General Turner, I feel relieved to see you have changed your hair in glory and your military appearance is in good order."

"Inviting you here this time is really unexpected. You must be invited to come out. The White House believes that you are the best candidate."

Why was he so startled? Could it be that some emergency had occurred? Or maybe the Soviets had called and they hadn't heard about it! At this time, Admiral Turner was confused and could only listen to what Reagan said first, and then continue.

Make decisions.

Turner: "I am an American soldier, and it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders. As long as the country needs it, even if I am asked to charge like an ordinary soldier, I will have no complaints; I will definitely appear where the country needs it most."

That being said, no one would let an admiral go to charge. If Reagan really dared to do this, he would definitely be shot in the face.

Several presidents of the United States have been shot and killed before, and he is not one more.

Reagan smiled and said: "General Turner, your loyalty and courage are an example for American soldiers."

"I called you here this time because there are urgent issues in Europe that need to be resolved. General Bernard Rogers has other things to do and is no longer suitable to serve as NATO Allied Commander-in-Chief in Europe."

"And you previously served as the commander of NATO's Southern European Forces Command, so you are the best candidate to succeed General Bernard Rogers."

"For the sake of the stability of the country, I hope General Turner will not refuse. For the sake of the United States, only General Turner can stabilize the overall situation at this time."

"There are many generals in NATO Allied Headquarters Europe who are your old subordinates. Only your ability and prestige can intimidate these arrogant generals."

Even the well-informed General Turner did not react for a while. He had thought about various possibilities before. But he never thought that Reagan would actually let him serve as the Commander-in-Chief of NATO Allied Forces in Europe. This is a dream position for American soldiers.

, if Carter had been president, it might have been his turn. Why would Reagan think of him? Could it be that his ability has reached this level.

After all, General Turner has served as the director of the CIA and cannot be fooled easily. Even though he has resigned, he will still pay attention to the world's military intelligence. The European Allies have not made any big moves in recent times. General Bernard Rogers' body

Always good.

What does it mean that Reagan suddenly transferred him? After analyzing it, I still can't find a reason that convinces me. Even if Admiral Turner is smart, he will not think that it is related to yesterday's TV appearance. No one will think of Reagan.

It would be such a joke to watch a TV show to decide the candidate for the commander-in-chief of the European Allied Forces.

This is not something the President of the United States would do at all, at least General Turner couldn't believe it.

Turner: "Whenever does the President want me to take office?"

Reagan had known about using this position for a long time and was not worried about General Turner's rejection. As long as he was a soldier, no one could withstand this temptation.

Admiral Turner also has ideas and beliefs. If he had not been recalled by Carter to serve as the director of the CIA, he might have been able to serve as the Commander-in-Chief of NATO's European Allied Forces four years ago. That is the highest achievement of an American soldier, and Turner is not immune to this.

Reagan: "The matter is quite urgent. I hope General Turner will hand over the current work. The sooner we get there, the better."

At this time, Admiral Turner's position was dispensable. In other words, it was the place where admirals would retire. There was no work to hand over. This was to show his face and let him hurry over.

Admiral Turner was not an unscrupulous person, and immediately said: "I will prepare immediately when I get back in the afternoon, and try to leave for Europe the day after tomorrow."

Reagan: "General Turner is indeed a role model in the military, with such a work attitude; I believe that under your leadership, NATO's European allies will never give the Soviet Union an opportunity."

Turner: "I would like to ask the President to clarify what I need to pay attention to when I go to Europe."

This is a necessary process before joining the company, and it can also be regarded as giving a good impression to your superiors.

Reagan was an actor, and his acting skills were absolutely nothing to say. So he said: "It is mainly about the Soviet Union. The Soviet leader is too old and may have physical problems. At this time, the Soviet Defense Minister Ustinov is also a tough figure.

If something changes in the Soviet Union, the NATO allies must respond as quickly as possible."

"You have served as the director of the CIA before, and you have your own judgment on intelligence work. You can do it without going through the White House when necessary, but the condition is that the Soviets cannot take advantage."

Hearing what Reagan said, the beauty in General Turner's heart turned out to be his own resume that left Reagan with no other choice. He was the only one who was most suitable in the United States.

A senior military general and director of the CIA, he has served in the European Allied Forces; after a comprehensive analysis, there is no other person besides him in the US military, or even in the history of the United States.

Although he and Carter were classmates, Turner, who had been serving in the army, did not appreciate Carter's style of doing things. Compared to the tough Reagan, Carter was a bit softer.

Not allowing the Soviets to take advantage was in line with General Turner's temperament. The Allied Forces composed of the United States and other European countries were in his hands, and if he allowed the Soviets to take advantage, then his life would be in vain.

In this way, Admiral Stansfield Turner unexpectedly became the Commander-in-Chief of NATO's European Allied Forces. The news shocked the whole world; Turner had just appeared on TV. Is there any conspiracy here?

The whole world was paying attention to this matter.
