Chapter 30 Inquire for information

Seeing Vivian again, Vivian's face had already faded away from the original feeling of not being deeply involved in the world, and was replaced by an aura like an empress. "Welcome back, my boss." Vivian didn't explain why she didn't go to the dock to greet Zhuo Fei first, but gave Zhuo Fei a hug first, and then got to know the others briefly, and then secretly gave Zhuo Fei a look.

"Boss, this is Eisenberg, our inside line in the SS unit in Bremerhaven, and something has happened lately that has been beyond our expectations." After arranging for the others to rest, Zhuo Fei followed Vivien to a wooden cabin in the camp, where a German soldier in an SS uniform was already waiting. Eisenberg was Vivien's insider after taking charge of the Jewish refugee camps, and Eisenberg would inform Vivien of any disturbances in the SS forces in Bremerhaven.

After listening carefully to Eisenberg's account, Zhuo Fei first asked Huffman to send away Eisenberg, who was not suitable to stay for a long time, and then discussed with Vivian the new news brought by Eisenberg. "Boss, you say, could it be that the Germans know about the printing house? I thought carefully about all the things we did in Germany, and it was they who agreed to help the Jews leave, and they agreed to build refugee camps, and it was only the matter of the printing house, which we kept in secret from the Germans. Vivien stubbornly figured out a reason, but Zhuo Fei didn't agree with her statement.

"It's not going to be the printing press, it's full of Jews, and the Jews know what to do for their families. The printing house was also very secretive every time it was shipped, and in fact the Germans did not know about the existence of the printing house, and the local garrison always thought that the printing house was just a small workshop for repairing clothes and shoes. Zhuo Fei carefully pondered every process of the printing house, but he didn't notice anything exposed.

"Maybe we were too sensitive, we were scaring ourselves, and Eisenberg just said that the garrison had increased its strength, but their commander had not changed. I don't think the increase in the garrison is aimed at us, but our umbrella company has brought a large number of supplies to Germany, and if the Germans are ready to deal with us, they may not be able to get so many supplies again. Zhuo Fei justified himself and found a reasonable explanation for himself and Vivian.

The German army stationed in Bremerhaven had only one infantry battalion, but now it has suddenly added a motorized battalion, and it is no wonder that Vivian and Huffmann are so nervous and uneasy. In order to prove that he was right, Zhuo Fei made a special trip to visit the commander of the garrison the next day, and the tea and silk that Zhuo Fei brought were well received by the other party, and Zhuo Fei also got the answer he wanted from the small talk with the other party.

"I'll just say that we are scaring ourselves, the SS is only strengthening the defense in Bremerhaven, who has made this an important port in Germany." Zhuo Fei's relaxed expression finally relieved Vivian and Huffman, if something happened to the printing house, the follow-up plan of the umbrella might be forced to be interrupted because of this, so the responsibility for the emergence was not something Vivian and Huffman could bear.

After a short stay in Bremerhaven for two days, Zhuo Fei and his party took a flight straight to Berlin, this time, Zhuo Fei finally did not have to go to the Krupp family manor to stay, Vivien had already spent a lot of money to buy a manor villa on the outskirts of Berlin. "Relax a little, everyone is here, this is our umbrella company's property, there are no problems with security and confidentiality. When the translators for you arrive, we won't be able to speak as freely as we do now, so if you have anything to say, hurry up now. ”

Such a luxurious villa, not only the officers of the Chinese Communist Party are difficult to adapt to, but even the officers sent by the national army are dumbfounded, and the official residence of the chairman of the committee cannot be compared with here. Lin Biao, who was specially named by Zhuo Fei to bring to Germany, was the first to speak, although he didn't know why Zhuo Fei specifically named him to come to Germany, but Lin Biao knew that this trip was an opportunity. "Director Zhuo, we are here this time with a mission, we don't care what we eat and where we live, I just want to see the state and equipment of the German army as soon as possible."

Seeing that the others also had the same thoughts as Lin Biao, Zhuo Fei immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, everyone, we came to Germany to watch the war this time, and you are all the leaders selected by the joint command, and your understanding of the war is naturally much stronger than mine, who is not doing business." Tomorrow, I will go back to meet the German Führer Hitler, and you can first walk around with an interpreter, because if the Germans don't do it, we won't be able to watch the battle. ”

After dinner, Zhuo Fei was accompanied by Vivian to leave the villa, and meeting Hitler was tomorrow, but Zhuo Fei had already made an appointment with Gustav, the head of the Krupp family, through Vivian. "Dear Mr. Gustav, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you okay?" Zhuo Fei and his entourage came to the Krupp family's manor, first hugged Gustav who went out to greet him, and then Zhuo Fei gave Gustav a gift he brought from China, and the exquisite porcelain and silk were naturally praised by Gustav.

"I will meet the Führer tomorrow, and before meeting the Führer, I would like to do a business with the Krupp family, and I personally think that this business is a new opportunity for the Krupp family." After sitting down in Gustav's study, without waiting for Gustav to light the cigar in his mouth, Zhuo Fei threw out the first gift bag he brought. "This is a communicator designed by me based on American goods, which can be used on the Internet, and at the same time can ensure that the regimental commander sitting in the rear can contact every squad unit on the front line of the battlefield."

Zhuo Fei took out the walkie-talkie that was popular in the late stage of World War II, but the walkie-talkie designed by Zhuo Fei is very different from the walkie-talkie equipped by the U.S. military, whether it is in size or call range, it is much stronger than the walkie-talkie that the U.S. military is about to equip. The Krupp family's property does not include communication equipment, but Gustav was very interested in the design drawings that Zhuo Fei took out, and seeing the other party's reaction with love, Zhuo Fei knew that he was not in vain tonight.

"What do you want?" Gustav and Zhuo Fei have cooperated several times, and he knows Zhuo Fei's personality to some extent, without the slightest hesitation, he first pinched the design drawings in his hand, and then asked Zhuo Fei about the conditions. "What? You said you want a Leopard tank? God me, you must be crazy, the Empire's own armored forces are still waiting to equip the Leopard tanks, and I will sell you a surplus share there? No, you'd better ask for another one. ”

Gustav didn't want to return the design drawings that he had already caught in his hands to Zhuo Fei, but he didn't dare to agree to sell the tank to Zhuo Fei. "Okay, since you said that the production of Leopard tanks is not enough to equip your own armored forces, how about I change it and give me a batch of No. 3 tanks that you have already produced? I know that you have already produced a batch of Tank 4 that has not yet been completely finalized before you terminated the development of the Tank 4, so why don't you give it to me as well? ”

Zhuo Fei and Gustav were like two vendors in the market, arguing in the study for a while, and the final result was that Gustav got the design drawings and specific data of the new walkie-talkie, while Zhuo Fei got the permission from Gustav to buy 50 No. 3 tanks and 7 unfinalized No. 4 tanks. "In addition, I need 20,000 assault rifles, and you'd better sell me another line of assault rifle cartridges, I don't want to travel across the ocean to buy bullets from you."

In the past few months, the Krupp family's arsenal has implemented three shifts of assembly line operations, and has been able to produce more than 100,000 new assault rifles every month. Zhuo Fei only wants 20,000 assault rifles, and Gustav only needs to play a few digital tricks to solve this problem, and as for the bullet production line, it is at most a matter of material and labor.

"Do you have anything else in your hands? I don't believe you only have this communicator. After signing the agreement with Gustav, Gustav squinted at the leather bag that Vivien was carrying, from which the design of the communicator was taken.

"Dear Monsieur Gustav, I would like to say no, but my conscience says that I cannot deceive such a respectable gentleman as you." Zhuo Fei stretched out his hand and patted the leather bag, his eyes full of smiles, "It's a pity that this contains the gift I was going to give to the Führer, but now I can't take it out for you to see." If you want to know what's in it, why don't you join me tomorrow to meet the Führer, and I don't think the Führer would mind sharing that pleasure with you. ”

What can be given to Hitler by Zhuo Fei as a gift, Gustav knows that it will never be easy, and his curiosity makes him agree on the spot that he will go to see Hitler with Zhuo Fei tomorrow. Leaving the Krupp family's estate, Zhuo Fei smiled at Vivian and said, "The Germans really can't hold their breath, Gustav just said that the SS has secretly begun to move, and the troops equipped with the first Leopard tanks have also gathered on the border, and the war may break out in the next few days, I really came to the right time this time." ”

Because of the news that Gustav revealed to Zhuo Fei, Zhuo Fei, who returned to the villa, canceled the plan for the officer corps to go out tomorrow, according to Zhuo Fei's plan, when he met with Hitler tomorrow, he would put forward a request to watch the battle in person, if everything went well, Zhuo Fei and they might rush to the border area tomorrow to wait for the outbreak of war.
