In this sleepless night, President Roosevelt's face was rather haggard and uneasy.

Beside him, chief adviser Harry Hopkins and new secretary of state Edward Jr. Stepnius stood quietly, waiting for Roosevelt's response.

The new secretary of state, Edward Jr., retired from Dinnius, replacing the previous secretary of state, who had stepped down due to health problems.

As a result, the most capable chairman of the board of directors of the U.S. steel company became the second youngest secretary of state in U.S. history.

As for the reason why President Roosevelt chose to make him the new secretary of state, it was because he was a man with little political ambition, and he was more serious about his work, and most importantly, he was willing to follow Roosevelt's orders to carry out the task, rather than the officials who had good abilities but often quarreled and argued with him.

Therefore, for Edward Jr. Stepnius, who was usually loyal and capable, he was very fortunate to be chosen by President Roosevelt as the new secretary of state.

It's just that this secretary of state, who has always been more obedient, does not have the skill and experience of politicians such as Churchill, Eden, Comrade Stalin and Hitler to contend with them.

Therefore, after he took office, he could only act honestly according to President Roosevelt's orders and be an obedient and honest man.

Roosevelt was satisfied with this, because what he needed was an obedient man to do things for him.

For this reason, officials in many countries have privately or publicly criticized Edward Jr. Steptinus as President Roosevelt's puppet, and his status is even inferior to that of President Roosevelt's chief adviser, Harry Hopkins.

Even President Roosevelt often had his chief adviser, Harry Hopkins, closely supervise the execution of Edward Jr. Steptinus's mission.

Perhaps only Heaven knows what Edward Jr. Stepnius's inner thoughts were, but he was very calm on the surface, and did not show the slightest special fluctuation or disgust.

And also was often appreciated, rewarded, and trusted by President Roosevelt.

"President! It's almost dawn now, and you should be resting! ”

"You've been reading the intelligence documents of the battle situation from the east and west for a day and a night, and if you don't take a good rest, I'm worried that your health will be bad!"

"Because your body and spirit have not been good lately, and you are too tired!"

Looking at President Roosevelt, who had been silent for a long time and was in low spirits, Harry Hopkins, Edward Jr. retired from Dinniusby's chief adviser, and preemptively cared.

"I think so too! Your Excellency, President! ”

"You haven't slept all day, you should get some rest right away!"

"If anything happens to you, I don't know how to explain it to your family, and to all the people of our United States of America!"

"Because now this World War II still needs your support from you, and we need you to lead the way to defeat Hitler and his Nazi forces!"

"For the good of our country and for the freedom and peace of the whole world, Your Excellency! Please go and rest as soon as possible! ”

However, as soon as Edward Jr. retreated from Dinius's words, Chief Adviser Harry Hopkins also hurriedly interjected.

"Our most heroic Army Chief of Staff, George W. C. Marshall was already at the command in Algiers, in full command of the battles of Cassino and Sicily! ”

"But I don't know why I've been deeply disturbed, and I always feel that there will be some obstacles in these two battles!"

President Roosevelt spoke slowly after a moment of persuasion by the two of them.

At the same time, the worried look on his face became more and more obvious and worrying.

Seeing this, Edward Jr. Stepnius and Chief Advisor Harry Hopkins also showed worried expressions, looked at each other, and exchanged their worried expressions.

For a moment, the room where the three of them were located suddenly fell silent.
