The sedan was speeding all the way, and both the driver of the sedan and the SS soldiers sitting beside him were silent, all of which made He Fengshan feel uneasy all the time. Born in Hunan, He Fengshan was a state-funded student at the University of Munich in Germany, and received a doctorate in political economy with honors, and is now the Chinese consul general in Vienna at the age of 37.

In March 1938, Germany annexed Austria, and soon after, Hitler ordered the embassies of various countries in Austria to be changed to consulates general, and in May, the Nanjing Nationalist Government appointed He Fengshan, the chargé d'affaires of the former embassy, as consul general. What He Fengshan never expected was that he had only been in office for a few days as consul general, and in the early morning of one day, he was escorted by several wolf-like SS soldiers to fly directly to Berlin, and then he was put on this car and did not know where he was going.

He Fengshan was worried in his heart, he didn't know where he was going, he was a little worried about his family who was still in Austria at the moment, and he didn't know if the SS would embarrass his family and embassy staff. The car drove all the way, and after bypassing a woodland, he Fengshan, who had a wide field of vision, saw a manor. "Dr. He, it's time to get off, we're here." The SS officer, who had not spoken since getting into the car, finally showed a smile to He Fengshan, and He Fengshan, who was worried in his heart, looked at the other party suspiciously, and simply gritted his teeth and got out of the car.

This manor is very large, but He Fengshan also saw a lot of SS soldiers with weapons on their backs, following the SS officers who led the way through several corridors in a row, He Fengshan's eyebrows jumped uncontrollably, and he saw two young men with the same faces as himself who were obviously Chinese. The SS officer who led the way quickly walked over and seemed to whisper something to the shorter young man in English, who immediately turned his head to look at He Fengshan.

"Welcome, Dr. He, I'm Zhuo Fei, and like you, I'm Chinese." Zhuo Fei, who was wearing a white shirt, thanked the SS officer first, and then walked quickly to He Fengshan, and after taking the initiative to introduce himself, he stretched out his right hand to He Fengshan. He Fengshan had long been confused by this scene in front of him, when did the proud SS officer have to smile at the Chinese? But he had just seen that the SS officer, who was not smiling at him, was smiling at the young man.

"Dr. He, please come here." Xu saw that He Fengshan still had a lot of doubts in his heart, so Zhuo Fei gave up his plan to do physical training and took He Fengshan directly under the parasol not far away. A few sips of strong and mellow coffee made He Fengshan's state change slightly, and Zhuo Fei continued to smile, "I mean to invite Dr. He to come to Berlin, the human nature of the SS is too rigid, if there is anything that offends Dr. He on the road, please forgive me, Dr. He." ”

Zhuo Fei's words made He Fengshan gradually relax, knowing that Zhuo Fei didn't understand German, He Fengshan talked to Zhuo Fei in slightly jerky English. "I know that Dr. He has just been appointed Consul General in Vienna, and the main reason for inviting Dr. He to come to Berlin this time is to get your help from Dr. He. Before I say anything about it, I can assure you that this matter will definitely not harm China's interests, on the contrary, if this matter is successfully implemented, there will be too many benefits for the country. ”

Zhuo Fei's words made He Fengshan, who was raised at the corner of his eyebrows, feel a little more at ease, but Zhuo Fei's next words made He Fengshan almost jump on the spot immediately. "I now have a batch of German Mauser rifles with a large amount of ammunition, and if I want to ship these weapons and ammunition back to China, I need to do a superficial thing. The Germans don't want this to be known to the rest of Britain and France, especially the Japanese, so I'd like to ask you to put on a play with me, Dr. Ho. ”

Since the Japanese army provoked a war on a large scale last year, the situation in the country has continued to deteriorate, and after the Nationalist Government lost Shanghai, it lost Nanjing, and a large number of elite German armament units were disabled. The national army troops are now not only lacking qualified soldiers, especially lack weapons and ammunition, at first hearing that Zhuo Fei had a large number of German-style weapons and ammunition in his hands, He Fengshan's heart suddenly became excited, and he eagerly reached out to hold Zhuo Fei's right hand and asked.

"How many weapons and ammunition do you have? As long as I can send these weapons and ammunition back to China as soon as possible, whatever you want me to do, I will agree, and I will agree now. Because of his emotion, He Fengshan's eyes already had a little moisture, and in He Fengshan's opinion, as long as he could drive away the robbers who invaded the motherland, it was far more important than anything else.

"Dr. Ho, calm down, calm down. As I said, I have a shipment of weapons and ammunition to be shipped back to China to support the war of resistance, but before that, I need your help. We have to join hands to put on a big show, and only by deceiving the eyes of some well-intentioned people can this batch of weapons and ammunition be sent back to China smoothly. Stopping Zhuo Yan who wanted to come over with his eyes, Zhuo Fei slowly withdrew his right hand while gently persuading He Fengshan a few words.

"Dr. Ho, you are from Austria, and I want to know the situation of the Jews in Austria, and I need your details." While saying this, Zhuo Fei glanced at He Fengshan very vaguely, but the latter was still immersed in the news that a large number of weapons and ammunition were about to be shipped back to China at the moment, and he didn't notice Zhuo Fei's peeping. Jews, this is the main reason why Zhuo Fei did not hesitate to use the way of the SS to get He Fengshan to Berlin, and in Zhuo Fei's whole plan, the German Jews, who were regarded by the Germans as troublesome and wanted to be exterminated, were the key to it.

During World War II, He Fengshan, who served as the Chinese Consul General in Vienna, issued visas to thousands of Jews to Shanghai, saving them from being killed by the Nazis, and was called "Schindler of China". Such a historical celebrity, just like Dr. Rabe in Nanjing at the time, has already been included in Zhuo Fei's plan, especially He Fengshan is still a Chinese, and with that batch of German-style weapons and ammunition as a bargaining chip, Zhuo Fei believes that He Fengshan cannot not cooperate with him.

He Fengshan, who was promoted to Chinese consul general in Vienna, was most familiar with the situation of Jews in Austria, the third largest Jewish settlement in Europe, with a total of about 185,000 people. After the annexation of Austria, the Nazis fanned up an anti-Jewish frenzy, destroying a large number of Jewish shops and sending large numbers of Jews to concentration camps. The Nazis wanted to exterminate the Jews here, stipulating that the Jews in the concentration camps could be released as long as they could leave Austria, and those who could not be expelled were to be slaughtered in the camps. Thus, for the Jews of Austria, to leave was to live, and not to leave was to die.

"Humanitarian aid is the consensus of all countries in the world, although the German Nazi Party will not let these Jews leave easily, but as long as the Jews who leave Germany have a visa issued by Dr. Ho, I believe that even the SS can only let them leave Germany." When He Fengshan learned that the Jews in Austria were in a worrying situation, Zhuo Fei was overjoyed and instilled in He Fengshan the concept of humanitarian relief.

"My plan was to hide the weapons and ammunition destined for China in the cabins of the ships and then use the Jews with Chinese visas as cover. Ostensibly, the ships laden with Jews were for humanitarian relief, but in fact they were smuggled back to China. I believe that no country will come to inspect a steamer full of Jewish refugees, including the Germans. Zhuo Fei's proposal sounded like a fantasy to He Fengshan, but this was the only way to transport a large number of German-style weapons back to China, even if He Fengshan was apprehensive, he had to secretly praise Zhuo Fei's method was indeed ingenious.

Zhuo Fei's trick was planned by him when he was in the United States, and for this reason, he did not hesitate to take out the national distribution rights of penicillin to lure Andy into the gang, and only when Andy joined the gang, Zhuo Fei could hire enough ocean liners through Andy to transport Jews to China. The weapons shipped to China were not the key, nor were the Jews with the visas issued by He Fengshan himself, and the key point in this plan was the list that Zhuo Fei gave to Vivien.

Most of the names of Jewish scientists and scholars living in Germany were on Vivian's list, and Zhuo Fei knew the importance of science and technology well, and instead of sitting back and watching these Jewish scientists persecuted by the Germans die in concentration camps or flee to the United States, it is better to take this opportunity to pack up these people and ship them to China. As long as he has a large number of scientists and scholars in his hands, and a stable base, Zhuo Fei can win his own dividends in the years-long world war.

Zhuo Fei's plan is not grandiose, but it will also be full of dangers and thorns, in order to hide the key points in the plan, Zhuo Fei had to get He Fengshan to Berlin through the SS. The German-style weapons obtained from Hitler became an important bargaining chip for Zhuo Fei to lobby He Fengshan, but what Zhuo Fei did not expect was that He Fengshan's patriotism was far stronger than he expected. The plan to use Jews to cover the smuggling of weapons had just been proposed, and it had already been agreed by He Fengshan, and if it were not for Zhuo Fei's insistence on retaining him, He Fengshan would have been ready to return to Austria immediately to issue visas to the Jews to China.

With He Fengshan's support, Zhuo Fei's mood has improved, and the most critical link in the whole plan has been solved, as long as he gets Hitler's support again, his whole plan will be possible. Convincing Hitler to agree to transport a large number of Jews to China was not a difficult task in Zhuo Fei's view, and I believe that Hitler should also agree to his own suggestion.
